Jay Reisner, Pastor of Faith Bible Church and a regular on The Forging Table, dives deep into Romans 3:9-20. He discusses the privilege and accountability of Jews, questioning whether the law can truly justify anyone. The panel debates 'no one seeks God,' emphasizing the natural man's suppression of truth. They explore church dynamics, contrasting seeker-sensitive approaches with expository preaching that delves into Scripture. With insights on human depravity and the importance of fear of God, they highlight justification by faith as a key theme.
