Last week, we considered “what are the decrees of God”. In this installment of our series examining, ‘A Puritan Catechism’; we consider how the Lord executes his decrees in creation. Through special care and Providence, we see that God is always at work bringing about good for those that love him, and ultimately glory to His name. Scripture: Daniel 4: 28-37, Numbers 23: 19, Revelation 4: 11, Danie...

The scriptures tell us that; “God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?” (Numbers‬ ‭23‬:‭19‬ ‭ESV‬‬) As we consider this, our hope is that today’s installment of the show, will serve to frame a better understanding how the Lord orders events, and ultimately what it means whe...

On today’s episode, we had the honor of speaking with Mike Gendron, discussing what separates Biblical Christianity from the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. May this discussion equip and ignite you with a zeal, to proclaim the gospel message, clearly to all that are far off and lost in deception.

In church history, no doctrine has suffered more from the lack of careful treatment and precision than, The Trinity. Today, we carefully unfold the answer to the question, ‘How many persons are there in the Godhead’; and further, work to extrapolate how each subsistence of the Trinity, is presented in scripture. Scripture: 1 John 5:6-8, Mark 1:9-11, Matthew 28:18-20 PBHB GIVEAWAY: https://www.stay...

Religious skeptics in our time, consistently deny objective truth. Making assertions that, “we can’t really know who God is, or even if there is only one God”. But looking to the Inerrant and Infallible word of God, we can echo and stand on the words of Isaiah 45:5-6; “I am the Lord, and there is no other, besides me there is no God; I equip you, though you do not know me, that people may know, fr...

On today’s episode, we took some time to answer your questions that were mailed in. Looking to the scriptures, we attempted to tackle some difficult, and perhaps some of the more controversial topics currently being asked within Christendom. We hope you find this installment of the show informative. Scripture: Leviticus 27:30, Deuteronomy 18:1-8, 2 Corinthians 9:6-13, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, 1 Co...

Chapter 2, Paragraph 1 taken from the Second London Baptist Confession of Faith (1689), tells us; “The Lord our God is one, the only living and true God. He is self-existent and infinite in being and perfection. His essence cannot be understood by anyone but him.” While we can’t exhaustively know all of God, drawing from the scriptures, we hope to extrapolate and show that we can know the essentia...

Many are the opinions and perspectives that dominate our modern times. But in all our doctrine and in all our devotion to the Lord; it must be tried and tested upon the word of God. Because we know this to be true inherently as Christians, we must ask, what do the Scriptures principally teach? Q. What do the Scriptures principally teach? A. The Scriptures principally teach what man is to believe c...

What does it mean to glorify God? Are there guidelines we must follow in order to rightly honor and worship him? Today, our aim is to unpack the Biblical way we may honor God; what is acceptable, and ultimately, consider the instruction he has given to accomplish this. Scripture: Psalm 19:1-2, 2 Timothy 3:16-17, Romans 9:22-23, Exodus 9:16,Ephesians 2:19-22, 1 John 1:1-4, Ephesians 2:10, 1 Timothy...

What is our purpose in life? Is our pursuit of daily activities solely to be lived for self, or have we been created to live in our temporal context with a particular aim in mind? We hope to answer this question, on today’s episode, as we consider - “What is the Chief End of Man?” Q. What is the chief end of man?  A. Man’s chief end is to glorify God (1Co 10:31), and to enjoy Him forever (Psa 73:2...

On today’s episode, we begin our series of walking through each question contained within: “A Puritan Catechism”, by C.H. Spurgeon.  While much of this installment, gives history and the “why” behind a catechism. We hope it will be a good primer to consider God’s word at a deeper level.  Scripture: Acts 18:24-28, Titus 1:9-11, 2 Timothy 2:15, Luke 6:40 Additional References: Buy A Puritan Catechis...

We recently had the privilege of interviewing Jac Marino Chen, on her journey out of the deception of the new age, into the truth of the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ. Today’s episode, is a wonderful reminder that the Lord is sovereign, that he can save to the uttermost, and that no one is beyond his reach as Hebrews 7:25 reminds us.

“No Creed but the Bible” - a statement that has often been promoted, but rarely thought through. While every Christian should believe the Bible is sufficient and inerrant; we must define exactly what it is we believe ‘about’ the Bible. In light of this, on today’s episode, we make the case for robust ‘Confessionalism’, as a component in the Christian Life. We hope you are encouraged by today’s epi...

Today, we examine one of the three tenets of what it means to be, “Reformed”; by presenting more information regarding the “The Doctrines of Grace”. While we have spoke on this subject before, our aim is to set the table for a more broad discussion on the sovereignty of God as a whole. We hope this conversation blesses you. Scripture: Hebrews 7:25, James 4:8, John 10, Mark 9:24, Hebrews 1:3, Isaia...

On today’s episode, we take another look at the controversial movement, known as, the “New Apostolic Reformation”. We enlist the help of authors; Holly Pivec and R. Douglas Geivett, to examine the evidence and determine; is the “NAR” compatible with Biblical Christianity, or is it a “Counterfeit Kingdom”.

In theological terms, many have made the category error of assuming the term, “Calvinism” and “Reformed Theology”, are interchangeable. While the Doctrines of Grace is an aspect of the Reformed Faith, it is simply the beginning of the conversation. Today, we go beyond the “Five Points”, and ask the question; “Are you even Reformed, Bro?”. Scripture: John 17:9-10, 1 Timothy 3:14-16, Deuteronomy 6,...

The pastor and theologian, Voddie Baucham, once observed, “I’m not saying it’s bad to have things, it’s bad when things have you.” Possessions are gifts, and can ultimately be used to the glory of God. But they should never replace the gift giver. As we live in this temporal world, we pray that this message would be true of us, as well as you, our listeners; that the Lord would be the sole recipie...

In our day, many within Christendom are solely concerned with the importance of mankind’s redemption. While this is a key aspect in the Biblical narrative; it is not the main focus. Ultimately, as Christians, our aim and desire should be living our lives to the Glory of God. May this episode serve as an encouragement, that our pursuit every moment of every day, is for God’s glory alone. Scripture:...

The scriptures are a deposit of all truth, gifted to us by the Lord himself. We are reminded in Ephesians 2:20-21 (ESV), that the testimony of God is “built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord.” ‭‭ May you be encouraged in today’s discussion, to trust all...

The ‘Anti-Christ’, sometimes referred to as the ‘man of lawlessness’, in scripture; is often misunderstood or misidentified when discussing eschatology. Making terms more obscure, Puritan-era Confessions of Faith refer to the Pope, as the “Anti-Christ”. Today, we seek to unravel the context of that statement, and hope to answer the question - “Is the Pope the Anti-Christ?”. Scripture: 1 John 2:21-...
