Would a Good God Send a LYING Spirit? — 1 Kings 22:21–23 Explained

Description

Greg talks about distinguishing between descriptive and prescriptive passages, then he answers questions about a secular case against legalizing prostitution, how a good God could send a lying spirit, fulfilling a rash vow to God, and attending a wedding between a Christian and a non-Christian.

0:00 Distinguishing descriptive passages from prescriptive ones

7:30 How would you make a secular case that we shouldn’t legalize prostitution?

27:49 How would you explain God being holy and good to a non-believer reading 1 Kings 22:21–23, where God sends a lying spirit?

37:06 When I thought God called me to be single, I made a vow to do it, but now that I’ve changed my mind about callings, am I still obligated to fulfill that vow?

42:38 Would it be wrong to attend the wedding of a Christian family member who is marrying a non-Christian, and if it’s wrong, what should I do if my wife wants to go?
