Episode Details

Autonomy is man’s ancient sin the desire to be his own god, defining good and evil by personal standards. In modern life this shows up as art for art’s sake, science for science’s sake, and reason judging all things, all detached from God, law, and accountability.

Scripture exposes autonomy as rebellion. God’s law reveals man’s sin, not to destroy him, but to point him to grace. The real choice is clear: autonomy or theonomy self-law or God’s law. Autonomy leads to anarchy; only submission to God’s authority leads to truth, order, and life.
