Faith & Practice #73 - Dr. Joseph A. Pipa, Jr. & Pastor Zachary Groff

In this episode of "Faith & Practice," Dr. Pipa and Pastor Groff handle a diverse array of questions pertaining to church government, the sabbath & missiology, covenant theology, sacramentology & baptism, medical ethics, and Old Testament theology.

Questions include:

- What is the difference between the Old and New Testaments, the old and new covenants, and the covenants of work and grace? Is there any overlap?

- What counsel would you have for Pastoral Search Committees?

- Should Christians ever feel free to use psychedelics to improve attention, focus, creativity, and work performance (i.e., through micro-dosing)?

- How can we justify from the Bible the specificity of convention in the Book of Church Order that is binding on members and church courts in the Presbyterian Church in America?

- How should missionaries in Muslim-dominated countries observe the Sabbath and encourage new believers/converts to observe the Sabbath? Is it permissible to observe it on the fifth day of the week (Friday) rather than on the first day of the week (Sunday)?

- What was Jesus' point in the two "widow's mite" passages (Mk. 12:41-44; Lk. 21:1-14)?

- Are Isaiah 14:21-21 and Ezekiel 28:13-19 about Satan?

- A married man professes faith and seeks baptism together with his unbelieving wife, who is willing - even wanting - to be baptized along with her husband. Would it be proper to baptize her? What if the situation was reversed?
