In this episode, Dr. Sadaphal continues to provide listeners with a biblical framework on how to think about innate human freedom.

Here, he develops biblical answers to the questions: What happens when one person’s freedom to choose comes in conflict with another person’s conscience? What is the amicable solution? In particular, he applies the answers to these questions to the issue of individual autonomy and vaccination. That is, cognizant that all people have bodily autonomy and freedom to choose, what is the loving thing to do when my choice bothers the conscience of my neighbor? If given the option to vaccinate, would it be loving to sacrifice my medical freedom for the sake of my neighbor? How can a person who declines vaccination (against anything) respond to being called irresponsible, selfish, foolish and a threat to others? Are those who decline arrogantly and brazenly exercising their “freedom” at the expense of those around them? And, if my free choice conflicts with the will of an organization or the State, does that entity have a right to impose a vaccine mandate?

This episode provides clarity and meaningful answers to these questions.
