In this episode of No-Co Radio, Pastor Mike begins with a devotional on the Lord’s Prayer, emphasizing the revolutionary nature of approaching God as a personal "Father" through the work of the Trinity. The episode includes a "Kooks and Barney’s" segment criticizing the phrase "don't put God in a box" when used to avoid biblical truths like hell or predestination , and a book recommendation for J. Gresham Machen’s “Christianity and Liberalism”. After a critique of “The Message” translation's rendering of Psalm 1 , Mike concludes with a "Catholic or Protestant" quiz on the nature of justification and a main teaching on Matthew 12, where he explores the "commanding of the impossible"—noting that just as Jesus commanded a man to stretch a withered hand, God commands spiritually dead sinners to believe, providing the very grace and strength necessary for them to respond.

We need to know that our debt of sin is paid, whatever we feel like. Being made alive implies a supernatural ...
