It’s Witness Wednesday!
Todd Friel is on campus in Gainesville, GA to talk with students about creation, repentance, and genuine belief over tradition.
Segment 1:
• Complexity Points to a Creator: A future doctor acknowledges the design of the human body as evidence of God’s creation.
• Faith vs. Commandments: The student believes following commandments earns salvation but admits personal failure in keeping them perfectly.
• Grace Explained: Salvation is through Jesus’ completed work, not human effort—a transformative message of hope.
Segment 2:
• Reincarnation vs. Judgment: A Sikh student describes rebirth based on karma, contrasted with Christianity’s “one life, one judgment” principle.
• Jesus as the Payment for Sin: Introducing the concept of grace—Jesus’ sacrifice pays the ultimate penalty for sin.
• Turning from Self to Jesus: Highlighting the need for repentance and trust in Christ rather than striving for a better rebirth.
Segment 3:
• Cultural Faith, Personal Uncertainty: A polite young Methodist inherits faith but struggles to articulate its message or offer peace to others.
• Self-Examination: Encouraging the student to reflect on their relationship with Christ to ensure genuine belief, not mere tradition.
• Eternal Assurance: The gospel promises peace and reconciliation with God through repentance and faith in Jesus.
Segment 4:
• Relativity Challenged: College students wrestle with the conflict between subjective truths and the absoluteness of Christ’s claims.
• Fear and Love: Using fear of judgment to lead to the realization of God’s love through Jesus’ sacrifice.
• Urgency of Decision: Encouraging the students to see faith as a response to God’s kindness and an opportunity to embrace eternal truth today.
