About this episode
Can a person justify sin if it brings about something good? Can God be blamed for judgment if His truth is revealed through our failure? In this powerful lesson from Romans 3:3–9, Stephen Davey addresses three objections people often raise against God’s justice—and shows why every one of them collapses under the weight of truth. Paul warns that God doesn’t overlook guilt just because someone claims a special heritage or spiritual status. Whether Jew or Gentile, every person stands guilty before God and in need of His grace.
Stephen also unpacks how people today still sin in the name of God—by misusing grace, abusing God’s patience, or assuming forgiveness is automatic. This episode is a wake-up call to believers who’ve grown comfortable with compromise and a reassurance to those wondering if God really keeps His promises. You’ll be challenged to live with conviction, honesty, and reverence—because the name of God is holy, and so is your calling.
