25 - Gospel Allegiance
The Greek word "pistis" (the word we usually see translated as "faith" or "belief") can also mean "trust", "faithfulness", and "allegiance". In this episode, I particularly explore the implications if we render it as "allegiance" - a proposal that makes sense given that Jesus is King of Kings, Lord of Lords, and God the Son.
Notes
For more on seeing “Faith” as “Allegiance”, I recommend spending some time with Matthew Bates’s work. “Gospel Allegiance” is a bit briefer, and aimed more at pastors and lay people.
