The Gary DeMar Podcast

After giving a quick reminder about the historical reality of hurricanes and flooding (not making them proof of either Bible prophecy or climate change), Gary interacts with a recent clip from Charlie Kirk. A questioner asks Kirk about "common law" and America's founding, and Charlie's response is impressive and very much in line with what Gary and American Vision have taught for decades. Get Gary...

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 8. Gary discusses the idea put forth by nearly all modern pop prophecy writers that Israel becoming a nation again in 1948 is a "major prophetic sign" of the "end times." There is no verse for this supposed hermeneutical key, but this doesn't stop authors and preachers from continually repeating it. Let's be Bereans and "see if this is so."

Gary concludes his talk about Christian worldview. While most Christians stand by and do nothing, the other side is working feverishly to implement their godless, humanistic, destructive worldview. Watching from the sidelines is not an option. Which worldview will ultimately prevail? Are you cooking the goose of the anti-Christians or are they cooking yours? Part Two of Two.

In this classic talk given at a Christian home-educators conference, Gary explains why a Christian worldview is so critical and important. Having all the right answers does not equip Christians to deal with today's ever-changing world. The enemy never stops reinterpreting and twisting Truth to suit their own sinful desires. Answering their moving target requires a worldview "grid." This is Part On...

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 7. Gary deals with Max Lucado's new book, What Happens Next: A Traveler's Guide Through the End of This Age. Nothing Lucado writes is new or different from what has already been written hundreds of times by a multitude of other authors over the last two or three decades.

Gary concludes his interview with Brett Prieto about worldviews and morality. As he always does, Gary brings in pop culture and television and movies to help make his point about the need for an authoritative standard (a Lawgiver) in order to define right and wrong. Many claim to be moral and ethical without any actual basis for it.

This is part one of an interview by Brett Prieto about Gary's book, Why It Might Be OK to Eat Your Neighbor. Gary points out the impossibility of a materialist worldview to define things like love or morality. Most atheists don't even realize the problem that they are "borrowing" morality from the Christian worldview in order to prop up their own lack of one.

Gary responds to a clip on Facebook that claims to "prove" the Rapture with two Bible verses. Revelation 3:10 and 1 Thessalonians 1:10 are the verses and Gary digs into the Greek and some of the translation and interpretation issues involved. Also, outside of the language issues, there is the larger problem of the historical context and the time indicators.

Gary discusses MAGA, Trump, and the Washington DC political machine. The reason why the uniparty can exist at all is because Americans (and many Christians) have disconnected from truth and history and care more about what vapid celebrities shout into the media echo chamber. It's not a difficult equation: if you allow it to happen without consequences, you will get more of it (think assassination...

Gary discusses the economic nonsense being discussed and "promised" by a certain presidential campaign. Socialists breed envy and what Herbert Schlossberg called "ressentiment" (see Idols for Destruction pp. 51-54) by encouraging voters to go after the "rich" and big businesses. This tactic ultimately hurts the very people is claims to help by causing both higher taxes and prices.  Read Leonard Re...

Gary responds to recent comments made by Glenn Beck on Tucker Carlson's national tour. Beck makes claims about the end times that he hasn't studied or given thought about the implications. If we are "close" to the end, which is a prophetic inevitability, there is nothing we can do about it. The historical context must be considered to properly understand the biblical text. Listen to the interview...

Gary discusses the economic concept of tradeoffs. Thomas Sowell wrote about this years ago and it's something that liberals do not understand. Every solution has consequences, and they may be good, bad, or a combination of the two. Liberals want solutions without ever considering the tradeoffs.

Gary discusses the film, The Omega Man, with Charlton Heston. Based on the book I Am Legend (with a 2007 Will Smith remake as well), the film is very prophetic considering modern climate armageddonists claiming that the "end is near" thanks to our continuing use of fossil fuels.  Read Eric Peters' articles here: https://www.ericpetersautos.com/

Gary puts Matthew 24, or what is commonly called Jesus' Olivet Discourse, under the microscope. He responds specifically to the "mixed" approach, which teaches that there are elements of past fulfillment (preterism) and future fulfillment (futurism) throughout the Discourse.

Gary answers a commenter on Facebook that doesn't know much about history, or at least about U.S. Constitutional history. The Three-Fifths Compromise (or Three-Fifths Clause) in Article 1, Section 2 of the Constitution does not mean that black slaves were considered to be only 3/5 human. Nonsense like this, as well as cries to abolish the Electoral College do not stand up to historical investigati...

Gary answers two listener questions, one about the Bible itself and another about sovereign citizenship. People regularly claim that the Bible is a "religious" book, but unlike every other religious book the Bible roots itself in actual history. Dismissing the Bible as a religious work is special pleading that happens with no other works of history.

On this third episode of Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope, Gary continues his study of 2 Thessalonians 2 and the "man of lawlessness."

Gary discusses pro-abortion nonsense being spoken by Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear against Vice-Presidential candidate JD Vance. The level of irrationality being promoted by the party of death is stunning, yet media personalities and talking heads continue to swallow and repeat the insanity.

Gary responds to a few recent news topics, especially people saying Christians shouldn't be involved in the Olympics because it was started by pagans.

Gary is interviewed by Darren Doane about what actually happened during the 2023 "Three Questions" controversy. In this concluding part, Gary continues giving his side of the story, as well as the biblical exegesis that informs his own views on eschatology. 

Gary is interviewed by Darren Doane about what actually happened during the 2023 "Three Questions" controversy. Gary summarizes his view of the whole situation and what he has learned from it. He gives background that is necessary to properly understand the entire conflict, which is essentially an in-house debate between adherents of classic Reformed Theology.

Gary begins his new Friday series called "Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope." It is a deep-dive into biblical eschatology (last things), biblical theology, and hermeneutics (interpretation). Pro-tip: Listen past the "end" of the episode for a bonus segment where Gary reviews one of his own books on this topic: Last Days Madness.

Gary discusses current financial conditions and the need to be prepared for short-term and long-term "disruptions." We all saw what happened to store shelves during COVID, and this should serve as a lesson to be ready in advance. Not trying to be alarmist, but being ready is always better than not.
