  • Informative Podcast

    Updated review: Still a good show with very good information. The the sing-song “keep grace in focus” at the end is somewhat annoying. If they are looking for a slogan, that is a good one, however, it doesn’t need to be delivered with varying degrees of silliness. The fairly recent addition of announcements, ads, etc. in the middle of the show is a bridge too far. It is out of place and really disrupts the flow of the show. Reconsider, please.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Does John 14:12 Mean Believers Will Do Good Works?
Q: Does this verse mean that all believers will do good works and that works are the test of saving faith?
The hosts explain that the verse is about the apostles' extended ministry and does not guarantee that every believer will perform greater works or even a consistent level of good works. Assurance should be grounded in Christ's promise, not in quantified works, and perseverance is not mandated by this single verse.
Do Unbelievers Have a Spirit?
Q: All right, Bob, we've got a question from Lindsay, and this is a very philosophical one. So the short version of her question is, do unbelievers have a spirit?
Bob begins by surveying biblical passages like John 3:6, discusses the dichotomy vs. trichotomy of human nature, and then considers how the Holy Spirit relates to unbelievers versus believers, ultimately arguing that unbelievers do possess a human spirit even before salvation, though it is not indwelt by the Holy Spirit.
Do You Need to Know When You Were Born Again?
Q: Do you need to know when you first believed to have assurance today?
No. The speakers argue that today's assurance rests on believing the promise of eternal life, not on a specific past date; testimony should reflect belief in eternal life rather than a transformed past.
Can Believers Today Commit the Unpardonable Sin? Also: How Can I Be Sure My Faith in Christ Is the Right Kind of Faith?
Q: How can I know that my faith is the right kind of faith that guarantees my eternal destiny?
There is no special 'type' of faith; saving faith is simply trust in Jesus as the Christ, and evidence of genuine belief appears in accepting the Gospel message without adding extra requirements.
Can Believers Today Commit the Unpardonable Sin? Also: How Can I Be Sure My Faith in Christ Is the Right Kind of Faith?
Q: Is it possible that David has committed the unforgivable sin and is therefore unrecoverable by Christ?
No; believers should not fear lifelong rejection since belief in Christ grants eternal life, and the unforgivable sin is better understood as lifelong rejection of Christ rather than an already committed act.
