In this episode, Dr. Nathan Kassas and Dr. Robyn Kassas continue the Old Gate series, saying Christians are often taught to put off but not to put on. They connect Ephesians 4:22 to Jesus laying aside His deity and being crowned, and to the priest's garments on the Day of Atonement. Focusing on sin makes us less focused on Him; small daily victories matter. Dr. Nathan explains how confirmation bias and attention bias reinforce a schema, and that evidence gathered through a wounded lens can testify to a lie. With Isaiah 55, they say God cannot be fit into our framework. Gideon and Peter show that we can switch from a schema to a rhema. Fear is control dressed up, and the law is love aligning us with His will.
