Debates on SermonAudio

The view on 1 John 5.7–8 through the centuries, held by many godly men, has been that the passage and its testimony of the Trinity by every right must maintain its place in the Scriptures. However, more recently, some have argued against the inclusion of the passage, many Bible translations have omitted it without mention, and some preachers have omitted the passage to avoid controversy. This article, though technical in places, defends the authenticity of this passage, commonly referred to as the Johannine Comma.

Bible Reading: John 1:29-51 (Text v43-51) 1. The simple servant that was used. 2. The simple response to skepticism. 3. The salvation that resulted. The sermon emphasizes the effectiveness of simple evangelism by examining Philip's interaction with Nathanael in John chapter one. It highlights how a new believer can share their personal testimony without needing extensive theological knowledge or engaging in debates against skepticism. The central message encourages Christians to extend the straightforward invitation 'come and see' rather than complicating the gospel with arguments or fear of rejection. This approach relies on the power of Christ's divine revelation and grace to convict hearts, as seen when Nathanael moves from doubt to confession. Ultimately, the text urges believers to actively participate in reaching the lost through faithful, uncomplicated witness.

Every Shot Has a Story Faith Debate: Sunday, July 26th, 2026 (08/02/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) American kids receive more than 72 vaccine doses, including 37 doses by 18 months old. No other nation in the world follows a schedule this large or fast. Most parents haven't been told why the shots were added, what problems they were created to solve, or how they continue to influence health today. A book by Valerie Ferrell & Leah Wilson breaks open the history behind the entire childhood vaccine program. "The Vaccine Decision: Every Shot Has a Story" provides details (vaccine-by-vaccine & illness-by-illness) explaining when each shot was invented, what justification brought it onto the schedule, & why it remains there. The result is a clear, deeply researched narrative that helps parents understand not just the "what," but the "why." This edition of The Faith Debate features a part of Mrs. Ferrell's 90-minute presentation at Elk Neck Baptist Church in Cecil County, MD on March 24, 2026 – during which she outlines items that help folks navigate the medical morass as a biblically committed Christian. You can see the full uninterrupted video on the church's YouTube channel. This is part 3 of a 5-part series on The Faith Debate radio show & podcast.

Mark Krikorian is a nationally recognized expert on immigration issues, serving as the Executive Director of Center for Immigration Studies. They are an independent, non-partisan research organization examining and critiquing the impact of immigration on the United States. He has testified numerous times before Congress and has published articles in many outlets. Jim regularly receives an email from the Department of Homeland Security with a listing of the arrests of what they call the Worst of the Worst. Nonetheless, officers serving under ICE are regularly being vilified by the media, community activists and by politicians, without regard for the magnitude of the work they are doing to make America safe. For example, when ICE shoots a person who is attempting to ram them with their vehicle, these same groups become unglued, yet stay silent when a person who is here illegally kills others on the roadways or rapes an innocent individual. So while the Iran war has dominated the news cycle in recent months, the issue of illegal immigration is still a hot-button one. Join Jim as he has Mark bring you up-to-date on the many facets that are part of this topic. For example, what's the latest concerning ICE and their use of masks and traffic stops, expedited removals by DHS, the birthright citizenship debate, non-citizen voting, should there be more worksite immigrant enforcement, the cost of illegal immigration to our nation, and more. Callers joined in, bringing their thoughts to bear on this subject as well. More Information: cis.org

This sermon explores the Parable of the Good Samaritan to redefine the concept of neighborly love beyond legalistic boundaries. The preacher contrasts the lawyer's attempt to justify himself with the transformative power of the Holy Spirit revealing truth to babes in Christ. By analyzing the actions of the priest, Levite, and Samaritan, the message emphasizes that true love requires active compassion, sacrifice, and mercy toward anyone in need. The exposition challenges listeners to move from abstract theological debate to personal responsibility in loving others as themselves. Ultimately, the sermon highlights human inability to meet this high standard, driving the audience to rely on God's grace and the example of Christ.

The sermon centers on the Gospel of Luke chapter 9, specifically the Transfiguration, to argue that the true essence of God's kingdom is the glory of Jesus Christ rather than theological debates or personal achievement. The preacher identifies three imperatives for believers: to see Christ's glory, to believe in Him by faith, and to hear His voice through Scripture. By contrasting the disciples' experience with modern church distractions, the message challenges listeners to shift their focus from self-glory and performance to a singular devotion to Jesus. The speaker warns against spiritual laziness and pride, using biblical examples like Samson to illustrate the danger of losing sight of divine glory. Ultimately, the sermon calls for a transformative commitment where believers allow Christ's majesty to shape their behavior and witness.

The Vaccine Decision Faith Debate: Sunday, July 19th, 2026 (07/26/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) Before joining Stand For Health Freedom, Valerie Ferrell specialized in health & parenting rights at her boutique law firm, especially surrounding birth & vaccine rights. She advocated for informed consent in health care & transparent food labeling in her state. She helped found the Birth Rights Bar Association, & was honored to present their argument to the Delaware Supreme Court that midwifery isn't the practice of medicine, in support of a trailblazing midwife. Valerie believes that, "Health is the foundation of how we show up in this world to love, serve, and create. Americans are blessed to live in a country that gets stronger the more we protect fundamental rights, like informed consent and privacy, so individuals and families can thrive." She expounds upon these ideals as she shares her expertise on this episode of The Faith Debate.

Dr. Tara Sander Lee is a Founding Board Member of SALT, Science Alliance for Life and Technology. She is a Science Advisor and Consultant who earned her Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the Medical College of Wisconsin. She has over 30 years' experience in public policy, academic research and clinical medicine with an emphasis on the cause of pediatric disease There are numerous debates as to how far we can delve into scientific research and still hold to a system of ethics. Some say it really doesn't matter as long as it's for the common good. Take, for instance, embryonic stem cell research. Some will claim that since aborted baby tissue would otherwise go in the trash, it's fine to use it for experimentation. Others contend the use of fetal body parts from aborted babies in vaccines and treatment are also okay if others are being helped by it. Did you know there are labs that create human embryos solely for experiments? These embryos are usually destroyed once research is complete. Also, did you know aborted fetal tissue is still used in some medical studies? This research often happens without public awareness or consent. And what about the use of AI? AI tools are shaping choices in healthcare, pregnancy and research. If left unchecked, this can target those who are disabled, the unborn or even older adults. We are headed down a pathway of very concerning technologies, genetic screening, gene editing, cloning, artificial wombs, 3-parent embryos and even human-animal chimeras. Where do we draw the line? When is it time to put the brakes on scientific research to protect ethics and prevent us from going down the pathway of eugenics?

If you turn on the news today, you are likely to see headlines that feel overwhelming. You might see reports of religious conflicts, ancient churches burning in Europe, or debates about whether certain acts of violence represent "true" Islam. Many people feel confused. On one hand, we are told Islam is a religion of peace. On the other hand, groups committing acts of terror often claim they are the ones following the faith most closely. To understand what is happening in our world today, we have to look at the historical "software"—the system of ideas, laws, and history that drives this world system. In the world of computers, if you have a program that keeps crashing or acting in a specific way, you don't blame the monitor; you look at the code. This article is a look at that historical code.

Her bio says her work's guided by a love for American values, uncovering truth, and passion for empowering others. She's served as policy analyst for Stand For Health Freedom since 2021. Valerie's understanding of the value of freedom to make one's own health care choices isn't just academic. Health freedom has kept her boys alive and thriving. Her choice to have home births jump-started her advocacy for health privacy. Her eldest son survived a rare deadly cancer because her family was able to navigate medical care while holding onto values that were sometimes at odds with recommendations.

THE PRICE OF LIBERTY. {The Freedom We Enjoy Was Purchased by Someone Else} Galatians 5:1 (KJV) Political liberty was purchased by the sacrifice of brave Americans. Spiritual liberty was purchased by the blood of Jesus Christ. Both liberties come with a responsibility that every generation must protect.Freedom has never been free. For 250 years, brave men and women have sacrificed their lives so America could enjoy the blessings of liberty. But as great as that sacrifice was, there is an even greater freedom that was purchased at an even greater price—the liberty that Jesus Christ bought with His own blood on Calvary.In this message, we will discover that every generation has a responsibility to protect the freedoms that others have purchased.As we celebrate America's 250th Anniversary of Independence, we will honor those who gave their lives for our nation's freedom. But above all, we will remember the greatest sacrifice ever made when Jesus Christ gave His life so every sinner could be set free forever.The question for every one of us is this: Will we preserve the freedoms others purchased, and have we personally received the liberty that only Jesus Christ can give?

Should this topic even need to be confronted? It is unfortunate, but in our day there is much discussion and debate about God. This message is a sort of preview to future messages dealing with the Bible doctrine of God.

This sermon identifies pride as the root cause of the pervasive contention found in modern society, particularly on social media. Drawing heavily from Proverbs and other biblical texts, it warns that quarrelsome behavior is an abomination to God and leads to spiritual foolishness and misery. The preacher urges believers to withdraw from online arguments and foolish questions, emphasizing that truth should be proclaimed through preaching rather than debate. Ultimately, the message calls for Christians to contend earnestly for the faith while maintaining peace and avoiding the destructive spirit of strife.

America is celebrating 250 years of Independence. While there are those within our borders who are trying to change it, we recognize that people all over the world desire to come here. To mark this momentous anniversary, Jim read the preamble of our Declaration of Independence and also the Preamble to our Constitution: Declaration of Independence (1776): We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.–That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Preamble to the Constitution (1787): We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect Union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this constitution for the United States of America. These two paragraphs, outlining the foundational principles for our nation, also point to the secret of America's greatness. Joining Jim to expound more on this was Randy Melchert. Randy is a college debate national champion who earned a Master's Degree in Church History from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School ...

A Thought in the Mind of God — Announcing My New Systematic Theology Book After months away from the podcast, I'm back with something I've been working on for 20 years: a brand-new systematic theology book called A Thought in the Mind of God. In this episode, I unveil the book, explain the single sentence that captures its entire argument, introduce the idea of "operational idealism," and share why the whole thing is free to read online.

The Israel Question Faith Debate: June 28th, 2026 (07/05/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) There seems to be quite a bit of controversy on the topic of Israel historically and presently – and, of course, conversation of what their future is – not only in the body of Christ, but in the world today. Consider the Scriptures of Romans chapters 9 through 11, among others, including John 4:22 which says, "Ye worship ye know not what; we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews"? That's a lot to cover and chew on. Has this been on your mind lately? If so, then this edition of The Faith Debate is for you. This is part two of a three-part panel discussion. It's a good conversation, aiming to benefit you (and all listeners) by letting everyone hear an irenic attitude in a polemic world.

What happens when Christians forget that grace, not merit, is the foundation of election? In this concluding conversation with Dr. Alan Strange, we move from theology to public life and explore how the doctrine of election dismantles pride, reshapes political engagement, and calls believers to a posture of humility. As debates over nationalism, identity, and power continue to intensify, Dr. Strange argues that the church's greatest need is not political triumph but faithful Christian witness rooted in the unchanging love of God. And as the series closes, and before MarsCast takes a brief summer hiatus, returning in August 2026, we lift our eyes beyond every earthly nation to the coming kingdom that puts all politics in its proper perspective.

John 9:4 'I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.' The sermon centres on Jesus' declaration in John 9:4—'I must work the works of him that sent me while it is day, the night cometh when no man can work'—as a profound call to urgent evangelism and soul-winning. It challenges the common assumption that suffering is always a result of sin, affirming instead that hardship can be a divine opportunity for God's glory to be revealed. The passage highlights Christ's mission to restore both physical and spiritual sight, exemplifying His priority of saving souls over theological debate or personal safety. The 'day' symbolises the brief window of life on earth, during which believers are called to be light in a dark world, actively engaging in evangelism, while recognising that eternal realities will offer no further chance for conversion. The message urges believers to live with a sense of divine urgency, emulating Christ's example by prioritising soul-winning and faithful witness, knowing that the opportunity to proclaim the gospel ends at death.

The Nicene Creed (Filioque) The sermon explores the historical and theological significance of the filioque clause—'and the Son'—in the Nicene Creed, tracing its origins to the 6th-century Council of Toledo and its later adoption in the Western Church, which contributed to the East-West schism of 1054. It highlights how tensions over ecclesiastical authority, language barriers, and differing theological emphases exacerbated divisions, with the East viewing the clause as a unilateral alteration of an ecumenical creed and the West seeing it as a necessary affirmation of the Spirit's economic work through Christ. The sermon distinguishes between the economic Trinity—God's actions in creation and redemption—and the ontological Trinity—God's eternal being—arguing that the debate centers on whether the Spirit's economic procession from the Son reflects His eternal essence. Ultimately, it calls for humility, recognizing that human language and finite understanding cannot fully grasp the infinite mystery of God's inner life, and urges Christians to prioritize unity over doctrinal precision in the face of profound theological uncertainty.

This sermon explores the monergistic nature of salvation as presented in Ephesians 1, emphasizing that God alone is the cause of redemption. The preacher defines biblical trust and belief not as intellectual exercises but as inevitable fruits of hearing the gospel, distinguishing them from mere mental assent or religious upbringing. Key theological points include being sealed by the Holy Spirit as a mark of possession and redeemed through Christ's ransom price, securing the believer's eternal inheritance. The message urges listeners to recognize that salvation is a purposeful work of God from eternity past, designed to inspire worship rather than theological debate. Ultimately, it calls the lost to repent and believe, assuring them that trusting in Christ guarantees they will never be put to shame.

The Jew Question Faith Debate: June 21st, 2026 (06/28/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) With much recent controversy on the topic of Israel historically, presently, and in the future - what are Christians to make of passages such as John 4:22, Romans 9-11, and others? This certainly gave the panelists plenty to chew on in this reasoned and measured long-form conversation. This is ground that cannot possibly be covered adequately is a mere half-hour, so The Faith Debate is presenting the topic in a three-part series. This is part one, "The Jew Question". Parts two and three are titled "The Israel Question" and "The Jewish Question", respectively.

When Jesus describes the broad way in Matthew 7:13, he does not say it leads to hell. He says it leads to destruction. So are those the same thing? Is destruction another way of describing hell? Does destruction mean annihilation?

As Pastor McKinnon continues his sermon series on the office of deacon, he addresses the debated phrase in 1 Timothy 3:11, clarifying that 'women' likely refers to female helpers in ministry, not an official office of deaconess, and argues against such an office based on Scripture's consistent teaching that women are not to exercise authority over men in the church.

The Philosophy of Place Faith Debate: Sunday, June 14th, 2026 (06/21/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) Jon Harris is a lightning rod for commentary on church/politics/culture – emphasizing paleo-conservatism & localism. (But it's when discussing things overtly in the context of the gospel that he's at his best). He joins the show to talk with Troy & his wife. This episode doesn't focus on political theory, nor practical sociological strategy, nor aim to explain "How our nation gets there from here". Future episodes can debate questions of "empire", "Caesarian figures", the prospect of a present-day "Franco" (or other so-called "necessary evils"). It could be fun to go back-and-forth in defining "worldview", "ideology", "-isms", & the nuances involved in considering the "order of affections" – but we also don't do that in this episode. (Each of these would take a series of shows all their own- in fact, Jon's dedicated countless episodes of his podcast to these things, and so has The Faith Debate during its 22-year history). To categorize/label the show within the correct file of your brain, think in terms of us broadly tackling the questions of Christ & culture, and applying big themes in a niche way – drilling down on the philosophy & power of "place". "Christ and culture" questions have been asked/answered in various ways for generations. Should the church act in terms of Christ being against/of/above/in paradox with/or transformer of - culture? (With "place" as an aspect of culture). The Panelists: Troy Skinner. Founder, Household of Faith in Christ Dina Carole. "The Voice of Frederick" Jon Harris.

This sermon traces the historical development of Christian Zionism by analyzing various theological interpretations of God's promises to Abraham. The speaker categorizes these views into literalist, non-literalist, and partial literalist frameworks, contrasting them with historic premillennialism, dispensationalism, postmillennialism, and amillennialism. A key argument highlights how the rise of dispensationalism in the late nineteenth century shifted the focus from a mass conversion of Jews to political support for the modern state of Israel. The transcript emphasizes that contemporary Christian Zionism diverges significantly from earlier church traditions by separating national restoration from spiritual redemption. Ultimately, the message urges humility and caution regarding complex eschatological debates while maintaining a commitment to the gospel.

The Power of Place Faith Debate: Sunday, June 7th, 2026 (06/14/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) Jon Harris is an author ("Social Justice Goes to Church", "Against the Waves", etc.) and documentary producer (Last Stand Studios) on issues of evangelicalism, Americana, and culture wars. He's a columnist active on Substack & TruthScripit (which he co-founded), as well as a singer/songwriter. He's best known as host of "Conversations That Matter", first gaining notoriety for exposing the Social Justice Leftism infecting the Southern Baptist Convention & its seminaries (with clarity in defending the biblical gospel). Dina Carole has been a media fixture for decades. Listeners might recognize her from her decades-long career in radio & TV up and down the eastern US (from New York to Florida), including her long tenure as "The Voice of Frederick" (having been a fixture on Maryland radio for years). This panel has been assembled for a discussion on the very real importance of physical "place". When Troy and Dina moved to a new house, they left behind their home of a quarter century. The move was tough because to Troy the residence represented stability, security, and emotional safety. For Dina the impact of the move hit her differently, as she tends to look at people moving through different seasons of life. Therefore, she doesn't cling to things as a general rule. But some might wonder if this is a defense mechanism as they see her more easily moving on. The panel: Troy Skinner. Founder, Household of Faith in Christ Dina Carole.

Who Were the Leaders of the "Restoration Movement"? 1. Thomas Campbell: "Thomas Campbell's famous Declaration and Address stated in no uncertain terms the principles upon which such restoration should rest." The Spiritual Sword, July, '73, p. 15. 2. Alexander Campbell: "Alexander Campbell, son of Thomas, became even more prolific in speaking of 'the laws of the kingdom,' as seen in Christianity Restored and the Millennial Harbinger." The Spiritual Sword, July, '73, p. 15. 3. Barton W. Stone: "The men making the plea — among them ...Barton W. Stone, a Presbyterian." The Spiritual Sword, July, '70, p. 42 4. Walter Scott: "Pioneer preachers as ...Walter Scott." The Spiritual Sword, July, '73, p. 6 These are the four primary "founding fathers" of the Restoration movement, none of whom ever obeyed the "ancient gospel" which was supposedly restored on November 18, 1827 when Walter Scott baptized William Amend (see Life of Elder Walter Scott by William Baxter, p. 108). Significant Dates and Events in the "Restoration Movement" as Revealed In Restoration Writings: 1812 - June 12: The Campbells and the Hanens (seven persons in all) are immersed by Matthias Luce, a Baptist preacher, in Buffalo Creek. This was nearly 15 years before the practice of "baptism in order to obtain the remission of sins" was supposedly "restored" by Walter Scott, Nov. 18, 1827.

Faith Debate: Sunday, May 31st, 2026 (06/07/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) The history of early Fundamentalist history might be a warning against Christians avoiding the use of "Artificial Intelligence", so as to avoid repeating the strategic errors of the years between WWI and WWII. 100 years ago significant sectors of conservative Christianity responded to cultural and intellectual shifts by withdrawing from academia, media, and institutions - which ceded enormous cultural influence for generations. How does the church preserve orthodoxy, without marginalizing the true faith, while still remaining involved in the formation of cultural institutions? This edition of The Faith Debate is part two of a two-part discussion, as the show continues to peel back the layers of concern (and the layers of potential) with regard to the use of new technological tools.
