S2E8: Piety Provoked

Benjamin, Michael, and Cody take up the topic of piety provoked, derived from Psalm 119:139. They parse through the key parts, raise a number of scriptural examples and confirmations, and give some applications. They touch on things like:

Zeal must issue in being provoked.
Should we have enemies?
Is there a place in the Christian life for hatred? to be indignant? to wield anger?
The danger of false or misguided zeal.
Examples from Paul, Phinehas, David, Elihu, and Christ.
The balance between mocking and weeping.
Whether warnings against being a reactionary are useful or straitjacket us from agency?
The inevitability of zeal and being provoked.
Why did Luther counsel Melanchthon to sin boldly?
The unintended danger of faddish zeal.
What are some benefits of being provoked?
Is it always wrong to allow the enemy to dictate the terms of battle, or are there instances where God blesses those who fight in faith and embrace the antithesis?
