5AM Theology

Send us Fan Mail Is there anything harder than waiting?! Especially, when what you are waiting on is a good thing - something you feel God is calling you to. But our timing is not God's timing. There are so many examples in Scripture where God calls people to something, and then makes them wait for it to come to fruition. Why is that?  Be sure to Subscribe to and Like this Podcast so you&apos...

Send us Fan Mail The Book of Job is known for two things: showing how "bad" things can happen even to "good" people, and showing the absolute sovereignty of God, even over Satan. But the book of Job is loaded with important truths for us. We often think of Job's friends as being the guys with really bad theology, but have you ever thought about them being an example of lov...

Send us Fan Mail We see so many ways some Christians think they should fight against wickedness, evil, and Satan. God does call us to be warriors, but not in the way many think!

Send us Fan Mail There are A LOT of very popular false teachers who claim that hell is either not a real place or is a place of God's mercy for those who choose not to believe in Jesus. But these lies are nothing new. They began way back in the garden of Eden in Genesis chapter 3.  Be sure to Subscribe to and Like this Podcast so you'll never miss an episode!

Send us Fan Mail Peter is a man of few words. He gets to his point and is often very blunt. In his masterful letter, 1 Peter, Peter shows a great dichotomy between those who belong to God and those who don't. He gives us the parameters of each of the two groups, as well as each groups response to God, and God's response to them.  As a bonus, this passage in 1Peter also makes it crystal c...

Send us Fan Mail In 1 Timothy 5, Paul makes a distinction as to which widows should be financially supported by the church. But he goes even further encouraging younger widows to remarry, otherwise they could become idlers, gossips, and busybodies!

Send us Fan Mail Paul has a strong warning in his letter to the Colossians. It’s a warning that he has repeated in other letters and that other biblical writers have also, echoed. It’s a warning that many need to heed today because the problem Paul and the others addressed, is rampant today.  Be sure to Subscribe to and Like this Podcast so you'll never miss an episode!

Send us Fan Mail Probably the most fought against doctrine is the doctrine of election. But this doctrine is not just about whether we have the freedom to choose Jesus or not. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture clearly shows us that before the Holy Spirit regenerates our hearts and brings us to a saving faith in Jesus, we have no freedom at all! We are in complete bondage to Satan! Be sure to S...

Send us Fan Mail We know the Holy Spirit regenerates the hearts of the elect, indwells in the hearts of believers sanctifying them and testifying to the Truth of God's Word; but how does the Holy Spirit pray for us?

Send us Fan Mail Without God, we are completely helpless and can do nothing of any eternal value. We need God to open our minds to understanding His Word, and open our hearts to receive the saving work of Jesus and so the Holy Spirit can indwell in us. But while God does all of the heavy lifting, that doesn't mean that we don't have a part to play in our sanctification. We have a big par...

Send us Fan Mail After Jesus' resurrection, He appears to some of His disciples on the beach of the Sea of Galilee. Peter is so excited to see Jesus, he runs in hauling a huge net of fish all by himself. But his exuberance is soon squelched when Jesus tells him of the death he will soon face. Peter takes his focus off of Jesus and falls. What is this exchange all about and what do Jesus'...

Send us Fan Mail Some of the hardest passages in Scripture to emotionally get through are the Passion passages. Sometimes, we are so caught up in what Jesus had to endure for us, that we can pass over somethings. When Jesus is arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane, there are four groups of people there. Everyone falls into one of these groups. Which one do you fall into? Be sure to Subscribe to and...

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we look at another puzzling quote from Jesus. When debating with the Sadducees, Jesus tells them when we rise from the dead, we will be like the angels. What did Jesus mean by this? Will we have wings? Will we be fierce looking? Will we all be males? Since we will no longer be married to our spouse, will we be sad? Join us as we delve into another head-scratcher!...

Send us Fan Mail After Jesus' Transfiguration, He comes down from the mountain to find His disciples arguing with teachers of the Law and others. When Jesus inquires about the cause of the argument, a man tells Jesus that the disciples were unable to exorcise a demon from his son. When the disciples ask Jesus why they couldn't cleanse the boy from the demon, Jesus' very puzzling ans...

Send us Fan Mail While Jesus is teaching, His mother and brothers show up and tell someone to go get Jesus and tell Him to come out to them. But Jesus' reply to them is to ask, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers!" Is Jesus dissing His mother and brothers? Join us as we discuss! B...

Send us Fan Mail Many of us are familiar with Matthew 4:1 - 11 - a tired and hungry Jesus who has just spent 40 days in the wilderness – which was more like a dessert than a forest – and He hasn’t eaten anything. And during those 40 days, He is tempted by Satan. But there’s a few questions that this passage raises. Since Jesus is fully God and since He has complete dominion over Satan, why did He...

Send us Fan Mail It is mind-blowing how much the book of Nehemiah and the rebuilding of the wall in Jerusalem mirrors and symbolizes our Christian walk. The book  culminates in a worship service that God's people hold in Nehemiah when the work is done. This is a direct foreshadowing to the worship service we will be participants of in heaven!

Send us Fan Mail When the Judahites were in trouble in Jerusalem, Nehemiah prayed to God. But he didn't just pray, he prayed Scripture back to God. Why did he do this? God wrote the Bible, surely He knows exactly what it says! So why did Nehemiah and so many others, including Jesus, pray Scripture back to God; and what relevance does that have for us?

Send us Fan Mail As Christians, we expect to have trouble from the unbelieving world. But what happens when they trouble comes from within - from people who claim to be believers just like us? Zerubbabel and Joshua were up against this exact thing with the Samaritans in Jerusalem. What does their situation show us about what we can sometimes come up against? And what can we learn about how to hand...

Send us Fan Mail Are we so concerned with people's feelings and that they like us that we compromise God's Truth and water down Scripture? Or are we so quick to point out people's sins to them that we neglect to be compassionate and loving? Daniel understood what the balance of being Boldly Gentle was. Join us as we try and find that balance, too! Be sure to Subscribe to and Like th...

Send us Fan Mail We all know God promises hope for His people; but He doesn't just say have hope because I say so.

Send us Fan Mail We only need look around to see evils like the LGBQT agenda, worshipping the earth, the radical climate change agenda, declaring the Bible is not divinely inspired and therefore is not inerrant or authoritative. We would expect to see these evils happening in the secular world - but they have infiltrated the church, and they are wreaking havoc on the House of God! But, sadly, this...
