If you have the Bible and hope you do, the beauty of the gospel is the God has saved us.

He's freed us from the power and the penalty of sin.

He's put us in Christ who's now our life.

So we've got to get to surrender our lives.

Our lives are yours and we're your servants.

It's not radical version of Christianity.

This is biblical Christianity. It's what it means to be a follower of Christ.

We don't call the shots. He calls the shots.

The Radical Together Podcast with Teaching from David Platt.

Today on the radical podcast, David Platt continues the series counterculture. Many of you might recall that David has written a book by the same name,

which deals with how applying

the gospel to the critical issues of our day is often very difficult particularly in

a culture that is increasingly opposed to the truths of God's word.

And today we're asking the question,

what is the difference between gospel-driven social justice

and the kind of social justice that we see in the world?

The Parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10 has massive implications for the Christians'

responsibility to the poor.

While many churches in America have ignored the poor, scripture teaches that belief in the gospel ought to lead us to

sacrifice for those in need. Loving our neighbor demands nothing less.

Here's David with a sermon entitled Empower the Poor from Luke Chapter 10.

Good morning.
