In this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, Nate starts by urging listeners to support Christians in business (yes, including Mike Lindell’s MyPillow instead of Demon Corp. Brand X), then shifts into weightier matters: eternity. We pray for Roy’s upcoming open-heart surgery and talk about trusting God through serious health trials. From there, the room dives into: Why did Adam and Eve sin in the Garden if God called creation “very good”? Did God intend the Fall, and how does that relate to His glory and sovereignty? What is kinism, and how is it different from (or the same as) racism? We discuss Joel Webbon, ethnic separatism, and whether “Christian kinism” is just religiously dressed-up racial ideology. Is “infinite wrath” compatible with “infinite love”? We tackle universalism, covenant love vs. common grace, and the big question: Does God actually love everybody in the same way? Are we born “children of wrath”? What about babies, original sin, and the justice of hell? Do people keep sinning in hell, and is eternal punishment for “finite sins” really fair? The core of the episode: Why didn’t God have mercy on His Son Jesus? Nate lays out the full gospel—why the Father did not spare the Son, how Christ willingly bore God’s wrath in our place, and why our own “good works” are just spiritual garbage as a basis for forgiveness. Finally, a deep dive into atonement theories: Penal Substitutionary Atonement vs. Christus Victor vs. other models. Did God really pour out His wrath on Jesus, or is that “cosmic child abuse”? What happens to justice if we remove wrath from the cross? If you’ve ever wrestled with whether God loves everyone, how hell can be just, or what exactly happened at the cross, this episode goes all the way down the rabbit hole (and then keeps digging). 📚 Resources & Links: Support Mike Lindell & Christians in business (use code “alex”): https://www.mypillow.com/alex For more content, visit: https://www.askachristianpodcast.com Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro, spam rant & supporting Christian businesses (MyPillow, BedJet) 17:20 - Roy’s upcoming open-heart bypass surgery & trusting God with suffering 31:00 - Why did Adam and Eve sin in the Garden of Eden? 38:45 - Joel Webbon, kinism and racism in the church 57:45 - Infinite love vs infinite wrath, universalism & does God love everyone? 01:07:05 - Why didn’t God have mercy on His Son Jesus?
