Implication of Barron's answer: evangelism of Jews becomes unnecessary if law-keeping + sincerity suffices

Ben Shapiro, a Catholic Bishop and the Gospel. 00:08:42 – 00:09:43

Mike draws out the logical consequence of Barron's position

If a devout Jew can be saved by sincere law-keeping without faith in Christ, there is no salvific reason to evangelize Jews. Evangelism would be merely a 'nice thing to do' rather than a necessity. Mike flags this as the core problem with Barron's answer.

Obedience is not a secondary issue

The article argues that the restriction on women serving as pastors, grounded in 1 Timothy 2:12, is not a secondary or debatable theological issue but a plain obedience issue. The author contends Paul's prohibition is rooted in creation order (not culture), making it transcultural and non-negotiable, and that egalitarian interpretations require "obliterating" what Paul plainly says. The piece ends with a challenge to egalitarians: what does obedience or disobedience to this passage actually look like?
