God and Country Biblical Exposition

In this third program on the book of Hosea, I discuss four major prophecies in the book: the judgment to come, the inclusion of the Gentiles, the Jewish diaspora, and the timing of Christ’s return.  Although Hosea is not known for its end-time prophecies, what little is in the book is extremely significant.  

In this second program covering the book of Hosea, I review last week’s discussion about “Who is Israel?”  This week, I cover the mystery of God telling Hosea to marry Gomer, a wife of harlotry. Additionally, I discuss the reason for Gomer’s sin and the means of her conversion.

To begin the new year, I am doing a two or three-part program series on the book of Hosea.  There is no substitute for simply knowing the Scriptures.  All the current commentary on the news doesn’t hold a candle to the light of the Word.  In this first program, I discuss to whom the promises in Hosea apply, and who is the Israel of God?

Three times in the Revelation, it is prophesied that Christ will rule with a rod of iron.  This is a quote from the Psalm 2 Messianic prophecy.  The first question is the timing and the nature of the event.   When will this take place, and over who?  Nevertheless, the great objection to this prophecy is that Christ will rule.  For those on Satan’s side, it is tyranny; for those on God’s side, it m...

In this Christmas program, I discuss two essential truths embodied in Christ’s first Advent.  First, the Gospel writers' inclusion of many social/political events in the recounting of Jesus’ birth.  There was a divine purpose for including current events in the narrative.  Second, the fact that in His first coming, Jesus Christ did not fulfill the promise that He would bring in His Kingdom, His re...

Iran is experiencing a historic drought.  Two weeks ago, the president of Iran announced that the only solution is to relocate the capital (Tehran) to Makran, one thousand miles to the South.  Iran is the chief sponsor of terrorism against Israel.  Is this drought the judgment of God?  Will this take down the Islamic regime in Iran?  In this program, we explore what the Bible says about God’s judg...

In view of this new huge documentary on UAPs (Age of Disclosure) and the recent Congressional committee hearings, It is time to once again visit the subject.  The church needs to take the lead on this one.

In view of the upcoming Thanksgiving celebration, this week’s program is about the Pilgrims and William Bradford’s book, Of Plymouth Plantation.  Most people now about the Pilgrims’ physical sufferings, but few know about the scoundrels who worked to cheat the Pilgrims.  In the words of Jesus, “Beware of Men.” 

During the Last Supper, Jesus warned His disciples that the world would hate them, even as it had hated Him.  What was the reason for this hatred?  Those who believe in the “woke Jesus” claim Jesus was hated because He accepted and affirmed people.  However, Jesus tells us that he was hated because He testified that their deeds were evil.   The moral standards of God are the reason the Left hates...

In part two of the Ecclesiastes overview, I cover Solomon’s final two points: Chapters 5-8, objections to God’s plan answered, and chapters 9-12, how to live given the vanity of the current system.

Ecclesiastes is a greatly misunderstood Biblical book, but it has great relevance for our day; that is, if the points Solomon makes are understood in our modern terminology and context.  Knowing Ecclesiastes is necessary for Christian maturity and service.  Like all Scripture, Ecclesiastes was given to us by the Holy Spirit for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness (...

The current government shutdown is a harbinger of a coming economic collapse. The core problem is the government having to borrow two trillion dollars/year to maintain government largesse.  This is not sustainable!  Turn to the Kingdom of Christ because the Kingdom of Man will collapse.  The other lesson is hatred toward the Republican worldview concerning social and economic morals.  This is anot...

The “No King” movement is masterful propaganda attempting to link current day Leftism to America’s Founders and the Revolution.   However, we all know what the Left means by “No King” today is not what our Founding Fathers envisioned.  The protest against the authority of the president is also a Red Herring Fallacy.  The Democrats are all for a totalitarian big Government that would force their ag...

The terms of Trump’s peace deal in Gaza are absurd.  Hamas will die before they ever disarm and relinquish power.  But likely, what we are hearing is for public consumption.  We should suspect that the real deal Trump is making with Egypt and Qatar is being hidden, even hidden from Hamas. I conclude by discussing the Biblical prophecy that Gaza will be a desolation.  Is this prophecy fulfilled in...

There are two simple reasons New Yorkers should not elect Mamdani as their next mayor, (1) He is Muslim, and (2) He is a communist.  Despite the horror that some may feel that a candidate is being judged ideologically for his religion and economic theories, in this program I explain the validity of those two objections.

In the first part of this week’s program I discuss the spiritual impact of Charlie Kirk’s memorial and Megan Basham’s conclusion that the wedding of Christianity with conservative politics only helped the church to grow.  In the second part, I discuss the ridiculous accusation against Christians that they are engaged in hate speech.  

This week is a review of some basic truths concerning God’s institution of government and law enforcement.  It is important to frame the culture war as a battle between the lawful and the lawless. 

It is only right for this week’s program to be a memorial to Charlie Kirk. What more can I add to the fine tributes given by many pundits, politicians, and preachers?  On my part, at least I can contribute some overlooked Biblical texts and issues.  

Some Christian YouTubers and Websites are claiming A.I. is the anti-Christ, almost as if it is alive and sentient.  The Christian community would do well to understand that A.I. is a compiler of knowledge available to the World-wide Web.  In this program, I give an example of A.I. generating a computerized host doing a podcast on one of my programs.  I give with four observations about A.I. – The...

The big story in Trump’s federalization of the DC police force is the pushback coming from pundits, ideologues and politicians on the Left.  The Democrat party used to at least give lip service to anti-crime measures, but now they are willing to pander to the voting constituency that opposes law enforcement.  What is going on here?  Are they naïve?  Have they just lost any conviction against sin?...

As is my usual practice, at the end of August, there is a program about education.  There is some good news regarding the Trump administration's disempowering the secular public school monopoly.  However, the bad news is that the pagan DEI, Transgender ideology, still permeates the education establishment. We are experiencing some temporary victories – most likely to be an example to America of th...

This week’s program is a book review of “Thinking Biblically about Abortion” written by a pastor friend, Steve Rohn.  My first thought was, do we need another book explaining the Biblical pro-life position? After reading the book, the answer is “yes”! It is amazing how reading God’s word increases conviction.  The conscience, that has been dulled by the world, is re-educated. The Word also helps u...

It is no coincidence that the most powerful and prosperous nation on earth supports Israel.  In this program, I discuss some Biblical texts in regard to whether God blesses nations that bless Israel.  I conclude with a brief exposition of Revelation 12 and the Great Eagle that will protect Israel in the apocalypse.

A straightforward, literal interpretation of Scripture foretells a third temple in Jerusalem.  The main dispute is not the possibility of a rebuilt temple, but whether it is being built in obedience or disobedience to God.  Even most Dispensational pre-millennialist believe God foretells of a rebuilt temple but does not command it of the Jews.

The enemies of Israel want to kill the Jews.  A big story in this is the fact that so many in the West are naïve concerning the goals of radical Islam.  Either their belief in moral relativism and equivalency blinds them to the reality of evil, or subconsciously they are also anti-Zionist and anti-Semitic.
