Summary
Two weeks ago, David argued there were Fifth Commandment problems with the legal arguments submitted by Christians to the U.S. Supreme Court in defense of Tennessee’s law prohibiting the use of medicine to address a minor’s gender dysphoria. Today David looks at the briefs submitted on behalf of four Christian organizations to explain why he thinks there are problems with the first three commandments, too.

| 0:00.0 | Thank you for joining us for another episode of God, Law, and Liberty with David Fowler, |
| 0:08.4 | president of the Family Action Council of Tennessee. Every week, we are putting culture, politics, |
| 0:14.0 | and law on a collision course with the truth of God's word. And now, here's David. |
| 0:23.9 | Thank you for joining me for today's episode of God, law, and liberty. |
| 0:28.8 | And I'm going to be very honest with you today that my topic is for me a very somber and sobering one because what I'm going to offer to you in terms of content is very substantive and strong. |
| 0:47.4 | But I feel compelled by God to continue what I've been doing and specifically today to do a sequel to a previous |
| 0:58.0 | podcast and if I do this well and do you find this information new resonating or challenging |
| 1:10.3 | in terms of a new way to think of a quote biblical worldview |
| 1:15.8 | and rule then I would ask you to share it with others as I did a few weeks ago |

| 1:30.2 | And, and maybe, you know, I've had some people this week say, what could I do? |
| 1:34.2 | What more could I do? |

| 1:45.3 | Bibles and listen to it and discuss the content. So the previous podcast that I've alluded to |
| 1:53.3 | is the one in which I spoke about how Christian lawyers play judicial politics instead of |
| 1:58.6 | asserting and defending the law in its historical and biblical sense. |
| 2:03.3 | In other words, they're looking for arguments that might play to a majority of the justices on |
| 2:08.1 | the Supreme Court. Whether they're biblically sound or consistent with a biblical conception of |
| 2:16.3 | law is not so much important as finding the five votes they need to uphold the law. |
| 2:25.8 | And to be honest, a vast majority of Christians do that, and I've suggested in that previous episode that when they do, when they |
| 2:35.8 | cut themselves off from the historical, and by that I mean providential understanding of law |
