Are moral values merely mind‑dependent?

Greg talks to callers about whether all values and duties are inherently subjective, whether Paul is making the same point in Ephesians 2:7 and Romans 9:23, biblical justification for Christian Zionism, and how God can be good if he doesn’t save everyone he created.   Topics:

1. How would you respond to the claim that values and duties are inherently subjective since concepts exist only in minds? (04:00)
2. Is Paul making the same point in Ephesians 2:7 and Romans 9:23? (16:00)
3. What is the biblical justification for Christian Zionism? (25:00)
4. How can I make a compelling case for the character of God in answer to the question of why he doesn’t save everyone he’s created even though he’s capable of doing so? (50:00)
