  • Navigating Christian Consumerism: Should We Support Heretical Organizations?
    2025/06/10

    The principal focus of this podcast episode revolves around the contentious issue of whether Christians should financially support organizations that may be deemed heretical through normal commerce. We engage in a profound exploration of the implications of patronizing entities such as Angel Studios, which is affiliated with Mormonism, and how this intersects with the consumption of music produced by groups like Bethel or Hillsong, known for their controversial theological positions. Throughout our discussion, we emphasize the necessity of approaching these matters with discernment and a clear understanding of the potential theological ramifications of our choices. We also reflect on the broader cultural context in which Christians navigate these decisions, considering the challenges of living in a world where nearly all forms of entertainment and media may inadvertently support contrary beliefs. Ultimately, we aim to equip our listeners with a framework for making informed decisions that align with their faith and convictions.

    Takeaways:

    • The Christian podcast community engages in theological discussions with an emphasis on love and charity, despite differing beliefs.
    • The central topic of the episode revolves around whether Christians should support potentially heretical organizations through commerce.

  • The Book of Mormon: Part 17 (Mosiah 15:1-9 and Modalism)
    2025/06/09

    This episode is part 17 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

    This episode covers Mosiah 15:1-9 and its clear teaching of modalism. These verses sound like something a Oneness Pentecostal might say.

    This episode explains the Trinity and how Oneness Pentecostalism differs with clips from Dr. David K. Bernard of the UPCI.

    Then, we compare what Oneness theology says with what Mosiah 15:1-9 claims about Jesus. Also, the Joseph Smith Translation changes Luke 10:22 to make Jesus say that the Father and the Son are the same person. (Note: I mistakenly said Matthew 11:27 in the audio, which is the parallel gospel account.)

    It seems undeniable that Joseph Smith was dabbling in modalism while writing the Book of Mormon.

    Sources Cited:

    "How Is Jesus Both God and Man? | Episode 36," David K. Bernard.

    "Is Jesus God or God's Son? | Episode 99," David K. Bernard.

  • 4 Questions to Help You Discern False Teachers
    2025/06/09

    In this episode, we dive into 4 biblical questions to identify false teachers, grounded in the doctrine of Sola Scriptura. Learn how to evaluate teachers by asking: Do they submit to Scripture’s authority? Do they believe Scripture is sufficient? And do they proclaim the true Gospel and contend for the faith? Drawing from key Bible passages like 2 Timothy 3:16, Ephesians 4:14, and 1 Corinthians 2:2, this guide equips you to guard your faith against false teachings that draw our attention away from Christ. This video offers practical, Scripture-based ways to discern teachers so that you can avoid those who teach contrary to God's word.

    May this episode expose the false teaching entering the church and bring glory to God.
