In Part 1 of this two-episode exploration on Catechizing Conversations, host Cisco Victa delves into the challenging question: If confessional Christianity draws boundaries, is it inherently exclusionary—and is that a bad thing? We examine our culture's deep-seated aversion to exclusion, rooted in historical atrocities, and contrast it with Scripture's call to clarity and conviction. Drawing from biblical examples like John 14:6 and Galatians 1:8–9, Cisco shows how even Jesus and the apostles set firm lines. The discussion uncovers the universal truth that every belief system excludes, using real-world illustrations like Unitarian churches versus the Athanasian Creed. Finally, we confront evangelicalism's tendency to minimize doctrine for unity's sake, quoting key insights on "essentials vs. non-essentials" and using baptism as a case study for how confessions prevent theological erosion. This episode lays the groundwork for understanding boundaries as acts of faithful love, with Part 2 promising deeper insights into protection and application.
