Four Preachers and a Podcast

How do we know the difference between a biblical command and a personal opinion?

That’s the question behind this week’s “Can You Help?” episode.

A listener writes:
“The new congregation I started attending thinks it’s fine to pray to Jesus… but I grew up with that being unacceptable. They have ‘biblical proof,’ but that comes down to interpretation. So where is the line? How do I know what is command and what is opinion?”

That’s an honest question — and one many Christians quietly wrestle with.

In this episode, the four preachers discuss:
  • What counts as a clear biblical command
  • The role of example and necessary inference
  • Where interpretation inevitably enters the picture
  • How to tell the difference between authority and application
  • When disagreement affects fellowship — and when it doesn’t
  • The danger of binding where God has not bound
  • The danger of loosening what God has clearly revealed
