Is Jesus Yahweh? (Informal Debate with Hebrew Roots Arian)

How do you handle it when you find yourself in a conversation with someone whose religious views don’t fit neatly into any one category?   

Last year I was invited on to the channel of a guy named Sean Griffin. Mr. Griffin’s views are very unique.

If you’ve wondered about the Hebrew roots movement, or you’ve been wondering how essential belief in the Trinity is, or you are the kind of guy who enjoys hearing and learning from a theological debate or discussion, this episode is for you.

Specifically, we address:

• How many plans does God have for the world?

• What does it mean to obey God’s commands and live?

• Should the Old Covenant be interpreted in light of the New Covenant?

• Was the Old Covenant Law for the righteous or the unrighteous? (1 Timothy 1:9)

• Are we in the New Covenant Yet?

• What does it mean to be righteous in the New Covenant? (Hebrews 8:11–13; Jeremiah 31:31–34)?

• What is the Gospel?

• What “paradise” did the thief on the cross go to? (Luke 23:43)

• Whose death made Jesus the mediator of the New Covenant? (Hebrews 9:15)

• Are we free from God’s commands in the Old Covenant or not?

• Does Sean believe in God’s triune nature, and that Jesus is Yahweh?

• What did Jesus mean when He said, “Before Abraham was, I am?” (John 8:58)

• Are Arians and Christians actually “brothers?”
