This week on Ask the Pastor, Pastor J.D. continues his series called, “Why Does It Matter?” with the question, “Why Does Correct Theology Matter?”
A glimpse inside this episode:
Theological doctrine shapes our relationship with God and others.
Understanding essential beliefs is crucial for unity in the church.
Not all theological issues are of equal importance.
Spiritual maturity involves developing strong convictions with restraint.
Knowledge of God should not outpace our love for Him.
The Bible emphasizes a proper view of God.
We must discern between essential and non-essential beliefs.
Personal opinions should not be equated with biblical truths.
Theological study is important for all believers, not just seminarians.
Unity in the church is vital for the integrity of the gospel.
