31: The Substance Reflects | Critical Race Theory

This week on The Substance we are taking an introductory look at Critical Race Theory. Lots of folks in the culture and The Church have strong opinions about it, but when a topic gets so much cultural heat, it's easy not to approach it critically and thoughtfully.

On this episode we cover the history of CRT, attempt to fairly define CRT, and engage with what the Bible says about the tenets and applications of it.

Biblical Support:

1) Sin and Responsibility, (Jer 31:29-30; Eze 18:1-4, 25; Jos 7:10-11, 20; Ex 34:6; Matt 23:29-31)

2) Hypocrisy and Self-Deceit, (Jer 17:9-10; Eph 4:20; Heb 3:13)

3) Partiality, (Deut 10:17-18, Eph 6:9)

4) Oppression, (Ex 3:7-9; Ps 10:3-7; Is 10:1-3; Lk 4:18; Jn 8:32-36

5) Liberation, (Acts 13:39; Rom 6:17-19; 8:2; Rev 1:5)

6) Social Justice (Job 29:12-17; Prov 13:23, 14:31, 19:17, 21:13, 22:16, 31:9, Luke 10:25-27,29,36-37; 2 Cor 9:7-9, James 1:22,25-2:7)

7) Restoration. (Lev 6:1-5; Luke 19:6-10; Eph 4:22-24, 28)
