Episode notes

Mike Downey: We need to look at what happens when we don't have a Christian understanding of what it means to be human. When you get to 1 Corinthians, for example, Corinth was a place that had a lot of issues with understanding of human nature and Gnosticism," he says. "I am more and more convinced that 1 Corinthians is the book we should be learning right now in America" He concludes exactly where you started, us Mike, at the resurrection.

In the beginning, God spoke the world into existence. He made man and woman the crown of his creation, image-bearers of the Almighty God. Humans have a special place in God’s created order. But as we know, it didn’t take long for sin to enter the world, corrupting this image and changing our relationship to our Creator. In this episode of White Horse Inn, hosts Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland consider our true nature as those created by God and why it’s important for us to understand our origin story.
