Do the Ten Commandments still apply to Christians?

Do the Ten Commandments still apply to Christians?

Author: 1517 July 24, 2023 Duration: 15:23

Ted asks about how God's law in the Ten Commandments still applies to Christian believers. Rod talks about how rough God's law is for sinners, the relationship between the law and Christ's Gospel, and points to the book of Galatians to help clarify a healthy balance for sinners in light of Jesus' perfect fulfillment of the law.

In the spirit of those free-flowing back deck conversations in Irvine, Talks with Dad Rod captures the essence of long talks about life, faith, and everything in between. This podcast is a continuation of that tradition, now hosted by Rod and his son, Ted. Each brief episode distills the warmth and depth of those discussions into a six-minute format, offering a moment of reflection amidst daily routines. Listeners will hear candid exchanges rooted in a Christian worldview, yet broadly engaging with culture, philosophy, and the nuances of modern society. It’s less a formal lecture and more like pulling up a chair to listen in on a thoughtful dialogue between a father and son. The podcast naturally explores spirituality and personal experience, aiming to provide genuine connection and insight one short talk at a time.
