Summary

It's hard to find a group of so many words directly from the Bible being used to mean the exact opposite of what the Bible means. 0:00 intro 0:18 to SKIP intro This clip is from a recent interview I did on Alisa Childers' channel. I took that interview and broke it down into topical videos dealing with the 23 different claims made by the "progressive Christian" Ragamuffin TV. You'll see a new video EVERY DAY until the whole series is uploaded. Here's a link where you can see EVERY video in this series (as they go up) https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ3iRMLYFlHstu7p_vncGknpVhWp9uxc1 Here are the links to the long form interviews which are on Alisa's channel Part 1 https://youtu.be/wVLLuyN-Ezo Part 2 https://youtu.be/CoBW3LY8xiw

0:00.0	You're watching one of a series of videos where Elisa Childers and I respond to 23 progressive
0:05.9	Christian claims, kind of like a progressive Christian manifesto that was written by Ragamuff
0:10.9	and TV. We deal with these claims, some good, some bad, some ugly, and I'm hoping that this
0:16.8	helps you to think biblically. Okay, so number two, 22. I actually, interesting, I was just pondering
0:23.4	this question recently. If Sin means miss the mark and what he's referring to is the Greek word
0:29.6	Hamartia, which is one of the words that the Bible uses in Greek to describe sin, which does
0:34.2	mean miss the mark. So if sin means miss the mark, then we all sin in every way by just being
0:41.9	alive for we all fall short of the glory of God. Yeah, it's funny how a little phrase can
0:48.7	involve so many things I'd want to disagree with. I don't think we sin by just being alive.
0:55.8	Like merely existing isn't a sin. I don't know what that means except that it's to devalue
1:01.6	the topic. The point ultimately is that sin's not that big of a deal. I think that's his ultimate
1:06.4	point. Sin's not really that big of a deal, which then you got to wonder why does he care that
1:10.2	it's not a sin to smoke or not a sin to drink. If sin's not even a big deal. But whatever,
1:16.0	the reality is they're not really about something. It's not that they're trying to construct a
1:20.1	cohesive view of Christianity. In my view, the progressive Christians are just trying to tear
1:24.5	something down. They're not trying to build something up. They just want to tear something down.
1:28.3	I'm going to attack you on. It's not a sin to smoke. It's not a sin to drink. I guess what?
1:31.6	Sin ain't no big deal anyway. Okay, well, then what? These are conflicting ideas actually.
1:36.2	Yeah. But there's a difference between the etymology of a word and the definition of a word, right?
1:40.2	So the etymology or the origin of the word homerthia, right? It is missing the mark. It was like an
1:45.0	archery term. But etymology, the more you study Greek or any language, the more you realize
1:50.2	etymology is like actually not very important. And first year Greek students or Christians
