    Preaching – Q&A (Evangelism and Preaching) (Remastered)

    In this Q&A, Rushdoony and Foster argue that “third world” crises are tragic yet often compounded by sinful leadership, war, and anti-Christian barriers that fear the Gospel’s implications for government under Christ; Christians should provide real relief where doors open (they cite Somalia as an example of staggering human cost) while insisting the long-term cure is changed character through the Gospel and the rebuilding of self-government, enterprise, and productivity—undermined, they say, by Marxism and “liberation theology.” They warn that anti-mission propaganda (including a story about hostile anthropologists and the murder of missionary Chet Bitterman) fuels persecution and implicates Western governments, so believers must pair global mercy with domestic “housecleaning,” including informed political engagement. On strategy, Rushdoony rejects a sentimental “be nice” model: Christ was salt and light, sometimes sharply confrontational, so removing destructive humanists from office by voting is presented as a moral duty while still evangelizing all men. They touch on cooperation across end-times views (even premillennial “occupy till I come” Christians can labor together), distinguish “civil religion” as a modern liberal construct from genuine Christian foundations, and explain “parachurch” work as legitimate kingdom labor alongside the institutional church’s ministry of grace—especially as the IRS tries to narrow “church” to worship-only. Rushdoony also frames law and grace through covenant: every covenant is gracious yet inherently legal, so obedience (including tithes plus offerings) is sanctification, not salvation; sacrificial laws are fulfilled in Christ, but God’s moral order still binds, and even Romans 13 obedience is always “in the Lord,” never above God’s Word. #Rushdoony #MarshallFoster #ChristianReconstruction #Dominion #Evangelism #Missions #ThirdWorldCrisis #Somalia #LiberationTheology #Marxism #ChetBitterman #PoliticalEngagement #SaltAndLight #BiblicalWorldview #CivilReligion #Parachurch #ChurchAndState #IRS #ChristianEducation #CovenantTheology #LawAndGrace #Tithing #Sanctification #Romans13 #ObeyGodRatherThanMen #KingdomOfGod

    Is “Being Busy” Just an Excuse?

    "Sorry, I've been busy" may be the most socially acceptable lie in modern culture. But what if the constant refrain of busyness is not a sign of productivity but a mask for misplaced priorities, avoidance of duty, and even disobedience to God? In this episode of Out of the Question, Andrea Schwartz and Pastor Charles Roberts examine the culture of busyness through the lens of biblical law and ask whether Christians have absorbed a humanistic standard for how they spend their time. Drawing on key passages — Martha's distraction in Luke 10, the excuses of the invited guests in the Parable of the Great Supper, Paul's admonition to redeem the time in Ephesians 5, and Christ's teaching on the vine and the branches in John 15 — Schwartz and Roberts argue that activity disconnected from abiding in Christ and His law is ultimately futile. They extend the conversation to the erosion of the biblical family, noting how busyness has become a ready excuse for delaying marriage, avoiding childbearing, and neglecting the Great Commission as it begins in the home. The discussion draws a striking contrast between the expanding, family-centered cultures of other religions and the shrinking, atomistic tendencies of modern Western Christianity. Whether you are a homeschool parent feeling the weight of an overstuffed schedule, a single Christian deferring marriage indefinitely, or a church member quietly sidelining your duties with "let me pray about it," this episode challenges you to examine your calendar as a moral document. What does your time reveal about whose kingdom you are building? Listen in for a convicting and practical conversation about what it means to seek first the kingdom of God — starting with your own household.
