Summary

It’s Witness Wednesday!

In this episode of Wretched Radio, Todd Friel engages in a series of dialogues with students on campus in Gainesville, GA. Friel challenges their theological stances, encouraging them to contemplate their paths to heaven, sin, and the core tenets of Christianity.

Segment 1:

• Seventh-Day Adventist believes salvation is through commandments and Sabbath; admits breaking them.

• Todd shows law reveals guilt; salvation is by grace in Christ alone.

• Urged to repent and trust Jesus’ finished work, not his own.

Segment 2:

• Sikh student believes in reincarnation and good works; admits moral failures.

• Todd explains all die once, face judgment, and fall short.

• Presents gospel: Jesus took punishment, offering forgiveness to all who repent.

Segment 3:

• United Methodist student is polite, but unsure of gospel, no assurance of salvation.

• Todd explains sin, judgment, and Christ’s atonement as only hope.

• Challenged to examine if he’s truly trusted Christ.

Segment 4:

• Two postmodern students believe all paths lead to happiness; reject absolute truth.

• Todd shows opposing beliefs can’t both be true; Jesus’ claim is exclusive.

• Gospel offered as God’s kindness: turn to Christ who died for sinners.
