  • Unloving sickening behavior towards others

    I pray Andrew and his co-hosts repent of the way they treat others who disagree with them. Especially the brethren.

    This podcast and others like it are causing division in Christ’s Church.

  • You’re a stronger man than I Gunga Din!

    Listening to you and James talk to this smug dude with the effeminate voice was hilarious! How smug to say you aren’t allowed to assume anything while he can assume everything.

    Convenient! He inferred with his “pronouns” he believes that men can trans into women, and so on.. what a joke.. super sensitive, effeminate, worldling. He can assume and believe “historians” about other historical people, but not scripture. He sounded like such a fool, and James’ patience as well as Andrews was surreal... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Nature of the Sabbath: A Theological Discourse on Rest and Worship
Q: Do you think Unitarians or Jehovah's Witnesses who say the Holy Spirit is not God or is not a person are committing blasphemy against the Holy Spirit from Luke 12:10?
The host explains that, across Matthew, Mark, and Luke, the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is tied to attributing the works of God to Satan, and that today no one can commit that exact blasphemy since God walked among humanity in Jesus; while there can be denial or mischaracterization, it is not straightforward to label contemporary denials as that specific sin.
Engaging Conversations: Transitioning from Everyday Topics to the Gospel
Q: What are practical openings to start a gospel conversation without making it feel forced?
Ask about someone's relationship with God, or invite them to describe their background and beliefs, then use follow-up questions to reveal a personal need that only the gospel can meet.
Who is Melchizedek? A Deep Dive into His Significance
Q: Is it safe to say that Melchizedek never died?
No, Melchizedek wouldn't have died because he's eternal.
Engaging with the Skeptic: A Call for Thoughtful Dialogue in Apologetics
Q: Do you believe that anyone has received supernatural wisdom or genuine Word of knowledge from God at any point in the last 2,000 years?
The answer has to be yes.
Exploring the Divine: Are the Gods of Islam and Christianity the Same?
Q: Is God greater than your ability to understand him?
Yes, they agree that God is more complex than we can fully comprehend, which becomes a point in discussing the Trinity with Muslims.
