Are We "Good"?

Video
Men’s Alliance

Are you a good person?That sounds like an easy “yes”… until you take Jesus seriously.In Mark 10:18, Jesus responds: “No one is good except God alone.” That one line exposes something massive: our worldview, our theology, and what we believe about human nature. Are people basically good… or basically fallen?In this episode, we unpack: • What Jesus meant (and didn’t mean) in Mark 10 • Why this verse doesn’t “disprove” Jesus — it challenges the listener • How Romans 3 (and even Psalm 14) doubles down: none righteous, not even one • Why a biblical worldview can’t coexist with the “I’m basically good” narrative • And why the bad news is actually what makes the Gospel good newsThis is also perfectly tied to Men’s Alliance January memory verse: Romans 3:23.Follow Men's AllianceInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/mensalliancetribe/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mensalliancetribeTiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@mensalliancetribeWebsite - https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/Explore Battlefield Coaching today and find yourself a Coach with experience overcoming a battle you are currently facing - https://battlefieldcoaching.comOrder the Book - Answer With Truth: The Ambassador’s Field Manual for Leading Your Family Spiritually - https://amzn.to/3BmnuKV

Ambassador Training 1: Relativism, Pluralism & Scientism

Video
Men’s Alliance

We're called to be Ambassador's for Christ (2 Cor 5:20) but how can we do that well if we don't know how to respond to the most common objections that the world has? In Round #1 of Ambassador Training, we'll look at each of the following objections to Christianity: Relativism - "There is no such thing as absolute truth. You have yours and I have mine." Pluralism - "All paths lead to God, there is more than one correct way." Scientism - "Only science yields truth; religion is merely a matter of opinion."

In the military, the steps to become promotable require sacrifice and discipline, but they are clearly laid out for us.
