Relentless Servant

This episode covers ministry updates! Life updates! And how do we view spiritual formation for or as a new believer!

In this episode we cover a throwback on a blog a wrote on legalism and my latest blog on defending doctrine! Background on the feed back from the legalism blog and my Judas Iscariot/ second chances/ God is love blogs. God is love and doctrine/ theology lead to hate. - we either count scripture as authoritative or not at all. - We either believe the full gospel or not at all. It's through proper doctrine and theology that we hear the gospel! Legalism: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2019/09/21/legalism-and-the-christian/ Judas: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2021/02/24/dear-judas/ Second chances: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2021/03/03/dear-second-chance-combating-universalism-and-annihilationism/

We cover my latest two blogs “dear Judas Iscariot and dear second chance”. We hit on the conversation of what it truly means to be born again in scripture. And that our fruits show where our heart is rooted. And then we tackle two major heresies of universalism and annihilationism. And we end with discussion if you can lose your salvation or not! Judas: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2021/02/24/dear-judas/ Second chances: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2021/03/03/dear-second-chance-combating-universalism-and-annihilationism/

In this episode we will be covering: - the reality of worship attested to Mary and the saints in the Catholic faith - how this is and leads to idolatry, also Christians have versions on this. - What is true worship then? Worship Mary: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2019/12/06/why-worship-mary-intro-to-christian-worldview-pt-3/ True worship: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2019/09/30/emotional-equality-worship-and-our-emotions/

In this episode I address a personal note on Ravi Z. And then I want to address the crazy reality that more scripture was circulating social media and peoples minds then in a long time. In my blog “an open letter” I hit on two major passages used during the BLM RIOTS and then finish it off with the “all lives matter” truth that comes in the Gospel! Luke 15 and the parable of the lost sheep John 2 and Jesus flipping tables Matthew 28 and the command to go to all nations Link: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2020/06/05/an-open-letter/

In this episode we cover the realities of mental illness and developmental disorders. How do Christians handle these realms and describe the way they fit in to a biblical worldview?

In this episode we cover my latest blogs on heresy found in the new age and moralism movements. And discuss from a theological view how Jesus is truly our hope and salvation! Blogs listed below: New age spiritualist: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2021/01/27/i-am-the-way-the-truth-the-life-i-am-series-part-eight/ Christian moralist: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2021/02/03/i-am-the-resurrection-and-life-i-am-series-part-six/

Episode six - Part two of the series!  Purpose of the pastor is brought to a close with this sermon I preached as a follow up to the first. It is all about the congregation and our active lives in and out of the church building as we respond to what is being given from the pulpit! 

In this episode we cover part one of a two part series I did back in April of 2019. It was called “pastors and people”. In this episode we talk about the realities of the position and ministry of true pastoral office. And what that biblically looks like. Too often we have celebrity pastors and mega churches with pastors leaving the faith. What about those who are truly called and faithful to Christ? Come listen!

Episode four - links below In this episode I cover a blog from last year called pleasing pastors and connect to my latest blog called Dear woke church. The truths from scripture that lead me to raising awareness of celebrity pastors and the progressive movement that are both damaging if not combated! Pleasing pastors: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2020/04/29/pleasing-pastors/ The reality of being born again in light of acceptance and “love”. The danger of thinking that by not offending we display true biblical love. Dear woke church: https://therelentlessservant.wordpress.com/2021/01/07/dear-woke-church-response-to-congress-prayer/ The reality of trying to be more inclusive we actually dilute the reality of the Gospel. The damage of letting earthly ideologies to become the framework for how we view scripture!

Episode three - links below In this episode we talk about my blog that's on white privilege, and my latest blog on the woke church! This is all in the wake of what just took place in Washington DC and the ongoing social and cultural battles from 2020.

Episode two Today's episode breaks down the early blog of mine called : 1-800-273-8255: Jesus and suicide! And hit on the reality of the physical consequences of sin! I asked and y'all answered, and in Gods perfect ways, this one is truly needed with the reality of social injustice, civil unrest and Covid-19 pandemic still looming over us!
