The Real Issue Podcast Understanding and Responding to the Cultural Undestanding of 'Toleration'
"Judge not" is the cultural mantra that has created a messy obstacle for Christians to understand and give a response. When someone or businesses use the word toleration, they are referring to a misunderstanding the implies one affirms that which they disagree. What is the cultural meaning of toleration and why does it not line up with the true meaning of the word and a biblical understanding? What is multiculturalism in a post Christian culture and how do these terms conflict with the idea of absolute truth?
Rob responds to these questions and lays out how Christians can be respond to the cultural accusations of intolerance and bigotry with gentleness and respect when believers. But first we need to understand the times and the terms, so that a response can be given. In this show you will understand terms like:
*Absolute truth being true for every person, place, and for every time.
*Tolerance where we can disagree and still treat the person with intrinsic value and worth.
* Multiculturalism and how all cultural ideas do not equal one another in meaning.
* And the importance of listening to the claim and giving a thoughtful and articulate response.
