Episode 443 - Do Not Fear Those Who Kill the Body
04/21/25 • 38 min
In this week's episode, we continue our walk through the book “Duty to Defend” with a chapter by Rev. Drew Newman on Matthew 10:28. Gun-control Christians have argued that gun owners only own guns because of fear. And since we should not fear the home invader who can only kill our bodies, we should not own guns to defend our lives. Makes sense, right? Right. Rev. Newman explains the context and why those arguments fail.

Episode 442 - Walk Humbly

Episode 444 - Numbered with the Transgressors
