John Piper & Kevin DeYoung: Wrong on Baptism
In this episode I respond to John Piper's claim that Colossians 2:11-12 refutes infant baptism and Kevin DeYoung's claim that it affirms it and links NT baptism to OT circumcision.

The Christian and The Jew
In this episode, I warn Christians about taking up an ungodly and hateful attitude toward the Jewish nation. Antisemitism is incongruent with a faithful and godly lifestyle at its core. The godly Christian will avoid it at every turn.

Grey Areas
In this episode I discuss popular grey areas like alcohol and even yoga. Christians should avoid coming up with rules outside of Scripture and then placing those rules on others.

Continuationism: Exegetically and Empirically Bankrupt
In this episode, I provide a straightforward argument that shows the impossibility of continuationism from an exegetical, empirical, and sufficiency of Scripture perspective.

Things Modern Arminians Would Never Say
In this episode I talk about the real dangers of modern Arminianism and how this religion is really nothing more than ancient Pelagianism with a Christian mask.

Responding to Steve Lawson
In this episode I talk about what a Christian response to the Steve Lawson situation looks like.

Book Review: The Lust of The Flesh (Jared Moore)
In this episode I provide my review of Jared Moore's book, The Lust of The Flesh. It is a breath of fresh air and much needed resource for believers as we continue to fight for the purity of the body of Christ.

What is Christianity?
In this episode I discuss the 2022 Ligonier survey on the state of theology. The results are shocking but predictable given the current trends and trajectory of the churches. In addition, I play a number of clips capture some of the false teachers out there and their false teachings.

I Begg Your Pardon (Examining Allistair)
In this episode, I talk about the recent controversy regarding Allister Begg's advice that a grandmother attend her grandson's wedding ceremony to a transgender. The advice has caught everyone off guard and for good reason. We have come to expect better than this from pastor Begg.

How To Destroy Christianity
In this episode, I talk about the best ways to destroy Christianity. As one might imagine, most of these tactics center around alienating Christianity from God speaking in Scripture as much as you can. Regrettably, this work is well underway even in some of the most conservative churches, so-called.

Homosexuality Comes to the SBC (Part 2)
In this episode I continue to talk about how Christopher Yuan is being employed by large SBC churches, such as Hickory Grove in Charlotte, NC, to weaken the church's traditional view on homosexuality. Yuan is on record affirming that you can be a Christian and have pedophilic desires.

Homosexuality Comes to The SBC
In this episode I rant about how SBC churches using Christopher Yuan, an admitted homosexual, how to train their people "biblical" sexuality. It should be noted that Yuan is on record as saying you can be sexually attracted to children and be a true believer. That's right. You can be a pedophile and be a Christian.

Andy Stanley vs Sam Harris - Stanley's Apologetics
In this episode, I talk about how Andy Stanley admits that Sam Harris has influenced and reshaped his preaching and framing of the gospel and Christianity for over 15 years now.

A Review of Andy Stanley's Apologetic
In this episode, I deal with the incoherence in Andy Stanley's apologetic method and theology. It is impossible to separate "the Bible says" from what Matthew or Luke or Paul says. What the authors of the Bible say, the Bible says. Moreover, if one of the authors of Scripture proves unreliable in regards to one miracle, say the virgin birth, then how can we consider that author to be reliable regarding his claim about any miracle? The first step in being able to defend Christianity is to make su...

What Say Ye? Q&A with Chris Soules
In this episode, I have a special guess on to do my very first Q&A. Chris Soules is both a Christian brother as well as a Jiu Jitsu brother. On this episode, Chris asks about the doctrine of election and the conversation takes off from there. I hope you enjoy the discussion.

The Christian Franchise
In this episode, I rant about the Christian Franchise. Modern Christianity has adopted the franchise model in the 20th and 21st centuries. The Christian Franchise's top service is affirmation. Everything she says and does is geared toward affirming people in the marketplace so as to attract and retain market share. All across the globe, people suffer from my newly coined term Affirmation Addiction Disorder Syndrome (AADS). The Christian Franchise reacts to the pagan market share with the goal of...

The Doctrine of Original Sin and It's Denial
In this episode, I rant about the denial of original by men like Leighton Flowers and movements like Provisionism. The denial of original sin is a rejection of historic biblical Christianity.

The SBC: Is The Concept A Good Idea
In this episode, I rant about the concept of the Southern Baptist Convention and contemplate the question: Is the concept itself a good idea? a

Provisionism: On Free Will
In this episode, I rant about Provisionism and its view of free will. I conclude that it is exegetically bankrupt, theologically baseless, logically incoherent, and a philosophical non-starter.
Mar 11, 2022•37 min
Provisionism: An Incoherent View of Divine Sovereignty
In this episode, I rant about Leighton Flowers and the Provisionist's incoherent view of divine sovereignty. No one should hold to a system that is internally inconsistent with itself. Irrationalism is antithetical to Christian belief.

Provisionism's Incoherent Doctrines of Regeneration and Election
In this episode, I review the doctrines of Regeneration and Election as stated by Provisionism. As it turns out, both doctrines fail in that they prove to be logically incoherent and exegetically untenable.
Feb 26, 2022•51 min
Provisionism: An Incoherent Doctrine of Grace
It's difficult if not impossible to get the gospel right if you get grace wrong. Provisionism gets grace terribly wrong.
Jan 20, 2022•47 min
Provisionism's Incoherent Doctrine of The Atonement
Provisionism claims to affirm the penal-substitutionary view of the atonement. On the other hand, Provisionism claims that Christ atoned for the sins of people who will not be saved in the end. These two propositions are contradictory to one another and reflect a muddled and confused doctrine of the work of Christ.

Provisionism: Incoherent Hamartiology
Why did Jesus say men need to be born again if they are born innocent with a will that is not impacted by Adam's fall and a nature that is merely inclined to sin and not actually sinful? It is one thing to say we are born with a nature inclined to sin and another to say we are born with a sinful nature. Provisionism claims the former and seems to deny the latter.

Provisionism: Rational or Irrational Representation of Christianity
In this episode, I cover the unavoidable incoherence between Provisionism's soteriology and theology proper. If God really wanted to avoid anyone going to hell, then He could have simply chosen NOT to create or He could have created man with the ability to freely choose various ways to only please Him. But God created a world in which He, according to Provisionism, knew that most men would die and go to hell and still He created this world. How does provisionism reconcile this obvious contradict...

The Weakening of Sola Scriptura
In this episode, I rant about the principle of sola Scriptura and the critical role that this principle plays in Christianity.

Brad Mason: CRT Evangelist Extraordinaire
In this episode, I rant about Mason's not so brief overview of Critical Race Theory and his continued slide into full-on apostasy. This is what happens to someone when Scripture is no longer their source of authority for truth and you don't plant yourself in a godly church with godly elders who care about your own godliness.

The Menace of Manipulation in Ministry
In this episode, I rant about the popular practice of manipulation among pastors and elders. Pagan society engages in open and shameless manipulation in order to advance its agenda. While it may seem unthinkable that pastors and elders would mirror this same behavior, it is happening nonetheless. What is worse is that the practice of malicious manipulation in the churches has passed into business as usual.

The Milky Way: What You Win Them To, You Must Keep Them With
In this episode, I rant about the practice of modern pastors to reduce everything sermon, bible study, and Sunday school lesson to the lowest common denominator in order to look out for the new believer. This tactic is a ruse on the part of pastors to keep people comfortable and coming to their little kingdoms.
