Episode 157 - The End - Revelation 14:9 - 11

Send us Fan Mail We have come to the end of 2025, and the end of our podcast, 5AM Theology; so it is very fitting that our weekly reading has us in the book of Revelation. Recently, Kirk Cameron has questioned whether unbelievers will suffer for all eternity, or will only suffer for a finite amount of time and then cease to exist. What does Scripture, especially the book of Revelation, tell us about "the end?" All past episodes of 5AM Theology will still be available on all podcast platforms, as...

Episode 156 - Living in the Light - 1 John 1:5 - 7

Send us Fan Mail Who doesn't love Christmas lights?! They way they shine and twinkle in the darkness is almost magical! As bright and as beautiful as they are, they are just a shallow comparison to the One True Light who shines through the darkness! How can we live in that Light?!

Episode 155 - Organize the Church! Titus 1

Send us Fan Mail So many people shrug off church membership, or even having to go to a formal church. They believe there is no need to join a church, or that just meeting with others together and discussing the Bible constitutes holding church. Others balk at denominations, or labels and titles that churches use. What does the Bible have to say about all of this? Be sure to Subscribe to and Like this Podcast so you'll never miss an episode!

Episode 154 - Why Paul had to be an Apostle to the Gentiles - Acts 22

Send us Fan Mail Paul was a Jew amongst Jews, a Pharisee amongst Pharisees. Why then would Jesus send him to be an Apostle to the Gentiles? As a highly education Jew, wouldn't it have made more sense to make him an Apostle to the Jews? As with most things, Jesus does not use the same logic we do, and turns things on their head!

Episode 153 - Greetings! Romans 16

Send us Fan Mail The Apostle Paul gets a bad rap sometimes, especially from women. But Paul loved the Church and Paul loved people! Romans 16 is an easy chapter for us to ignore because it just seems like an endless list of greetings to a bunch of people with really difficult Greek names! But we shouldn't overlook it because it tells us something about Paul, and more importantly, it's a model for us to follow in our own church!

Episode 152 - The Most Crucial Truth in Christianity - 1Cor 15:1 - 6

Send us Fan Mail There are several essential truths in Scripture; Truths that you need to believe to call yourself a Christian. But there is no Truth that is more essential in all of Scripture than the Truth that Jesus resurrected from the dead. Jesus’ resurrection is the single most important event in all of human history and is absolutely the most crucial Truth of Christianity. Why is that?! And what does it have to do with our physical resurrection? Be sure to Subscribe to and Like this Podca...

Episode 151 - If You Don't Work, You Don't Eat - 2 Thessalonians 3:10 - 16

Send us Fan Mail With all of the talk of completely revamping SNAP and making everyone reapply due to widespread fraud and corruption, Paul's words in 2Thessalonians 3:6, "If you don't work, you don't eat," have become a hot topic.

Episode 150 - Did the Apostles Doubt After the Resurrection? Matthew 28:16 - 20

Send us Fan Mail Sometimes, even when we get to passages in the Bible that are so familiar, we can almost recite them word for word, BAM! Something jumps out that we've never noticed before or never thought about. We got to one of those passages this week. We all know Jesus gave the Great Commission to His Apostles, but is it possible that some of the Apostles were doubting while Jesus was doing it?

Send us Fan Mail Jesus said at the end of His earthly life, He would send the Holy Spirit, who, "will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgement." Who is the world Jesus is speaking about? What does it mean that the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgement? Join us as we dive into this often misinterpreted passage!

Episode 148 - Jesus was a Patriot! - Luke 19:41 - 44

Send us Fan Mail We don't usually think of Jesus as a patriot. After all, as the Sovereign God, He owns every nation on the entire earth! But as fully Man, and as a Jew, Jesus loved Israel, especially the city of Jerusalem, which was supposed to be a holy city on a hill. Instead, when Jesus enters it on Palm Sunday, He finds it is anything but a holy city devoted to God. What does Jesus' patriotism teach us about what our loyalty and love of country should look like?

Episode 147 - Lock Your Doors and Grab Your Weapons! Luke 12:35 - 48

Send us Fan Mail If you knew someone was going to break into your house tonight, what would you do to prepare for it? The chances that the burglar would be successful breaking into your home if you are prepared for it go down dramatically! It's the same with the Second Coming of Jesus. If we are prepared for it, the chances that we will be condemned by Jesus also decrease! Get prepared! Lock your doors and grab your weapons!

Episode 146 - Who is Your Real Family? John 7:1 - 9

Send us Fan Mail While Jesus walked the earth, His siblings, even though they had heard Him teach and seen Him perform miracles, did not believe He was the Messiah. In fact, most in Jesus' hometown didn't believe it, either. Why is that? And what does this tell us about our own families and lifelong friends- especially those who are unbelievers?

Episode 145 - To Be Seen or Not Seen, That is the Question! Matthew 5:15 - 6:4

Send us Fan Mail In Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, He says both, " Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven," AND, "When you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you." So which is it? Are we to give and do good works to be seen or are we to do them in secret? Be sure to Subscribe to and Like th...

Episode 143 - Oh, God, Remember Me - Nehemiah 13

Send us Fan Mail Since God is Omniscient and never forgets anything, why did Nehemiah feel it necessary to ask God to rememeber him 6 times in the book of Nehemiah?

Episode 142 - Whose Work Are You About? Haggai 1

Send us Fan Mail When Haggai went to Jerusalem, the Temple was still in ruins, even though 17 years earlier, God told the returning Israelites to get it rebuilt. They claimed it wasn't the right time to rebuild; but it seemed the right time to them to rebuild their own houses and tend to their own interests. How about us?

Episode 141 - Persistent Perseverance

Send us Fan Mail When we get to Daniel 9, we see that even after 70 years in exile in Babylon, the Israelites were still sinning and needed Daniel to intercede with God on their behalf. Many years in exile had taken a toll on them. It's the same for us. We are in exile on this fallen earth until Jesus delivers us from it either by our death or His return. How can Daniel's words help us as we wait for our deliverance? Be sure to Subscribe to and Like this Podcast so you'll never miss an episode! ...

Episode 140 - Afterall, Tomorrow is a New Day! Lamentations 3:21 - 26

Send us Fan Mail We need to take our sin seriously and be continually repenting of it; BUT we need to make sure that we don't forget that because of what Jesus did for us, EVERY one of our sins are forgiven by God. Instead of getting what we deserve for our sin, we, receive steadfast love from God that never ceases. We find mercies that are new every morning.

Episode 138 - How Will You Fare in the Fire? Ezekiel 22:1 - 22

Send us Fan Mail The Bible is not a book of separate narratives and stories. Instead, it is a collection of narratives that tell ONE story - the story of God's redemption of His people. In the book of Ezekiel, God tells the Judahites that He will throw them into the fire of His wrath and they will be melted down completely. How does this narrative, the narrative of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednigo, and Jesus' final judgement at His Second Coming all tell the same story? Be sure to Subscribe to an...

Episode 137 - An Unlikely Moral Example - Jeremiah 35

Send us Fan Mail You would think if God was going to give His people an example of what obedience looks like, He would choose someone from within the family of God, but in Jeremiah 35, God held up the Rechabite tribe who weren't even a part of Israel, as the model for obedience and faithfulness.

Episode 136 - Jars of Clay - To Smash or Not to Smash? Jeremiah 19:1 - 15

Send us Fan Mail Clay and jars of clay is a reoccurring theme in Scripture. Clay jars are used to represent our human bodies, or more specifically, our very frail human bodies that are completely dependent upon the Sovereign Hand of God who formed us. Whether God decides to smash us or not to smash us is completely dependent upon His mercy as Jeremiah 19 shows us. But, as Paul shows us in Romans and 2 Corinthians, there is motive behind God's decision in the smashing! Be sure to Subscribe to and...

Episode 135 - Legacy - 2Kings 21: 1- 9

Send us Fan Mail Proverbs 22:6 says, "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." But what happens when you do exactly that, and your child walks away from the Lord. And in contrast, how do some really solid Christians come from atheist parents? We may strive and work to leave a godly and good legacy for our children and grandchildren, but that doesn't guarantee that they will follow in our footsteps. Why is that and how do the ancient kings of Juda...

Episode 134 - Cheeseburger in Paradise? - Isaiah 25:6 - 8

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever wondered what we'll eat in heaven? Revelation tells us there is no killing or death in heaven, so that would mean, no meat. Yet Isaiah foreshadows our feast in heaven telling us we will eat choice food flavored with marrow (or meat as some translations say). So which is it? What will we eat meat in heaven?

Episode 133 - Meditating on God's Enduring Love - Psalm 136

Send us Fan Mail Psalm 136 is a hymn celebrating one of the greatest reasons there is to thank God: His love for us. And this love is not just any love; it’s a love that “endures forever” as the Psalmist tells us 26 times! The Psalm is meant to help us meditate on the God's enduring love, but what exactly does that mean? Be sure to Subscribe to and Like this Podcast so you'll never miss an episode!

Send us Fan Mail Psalms 1 & 2 serve as a guide for the other 148 Psalms.

Episode 130 - Deja Vu? Kings & Chronicles

Send us Fan Mail One thing you notice when reading through the Bible, and you get to the books of 1 & 2 Chronicles is that is repeats much of what is already recorded in 1 & 2 Samuel and 1 & 2 Kings. Sometimes, it repeats narratives word for word, sometimes, though, the books of Chronicles add or omit details of the books of Samuel and Kings. You are not experiencing Deja Vu, nor is God being redundant. There is good reason for all of it. Join us as we delve into that reason! Be sure...
