Is There a Connection Between the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Library? An Interview with Dr. Matthew Goff and Dr. Dylan Burns (Part 1) Professors Matthew Goff and Dylan Burns realized there were some surprising commonalities between the Dead Sea Scrolls and Nag Hammadi Library. Traditionally, these ancient writings are studied separately, despite their modern discoveries around the same time and relatively close locations. With Dr. Goff's expertise in the Dead Sea Scrolls and Dr. Burns' expertise in the Nag Hammadi Library, they could describe why both are so important for an understanding of the evolution of Judeo-Christian religions. This is part one of a two-part series. The second episode in the series will be released on June 4, 2025. Read the book they co-authored, The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Codices. It's open source, so it's available for free! Dr. Dylan M. Burns is Assistant Professor of the History of Esotericism in Late Antiquity at the University of Amsterdam. He earned his doctorate in Ancient Christianity at Yale University in 2011, before holding research positions in Copenhagen, Leipzig, and Berlin. Among his books are Apocalypse of the Alien God: Platonism and the Exile of Sethian Gnosticism (2014), Did God Care? Providence, Dualism, and Will in Later Greek and Early Christian Philosophy (2020), and The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Codices (2022). Dr. Matthew Goff joined the faculty of Florida State's Religion Department in 2005. He completed an M.T.S degree in 1997 at Harvard Divinity School and finished his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 2002. He studied under John Collins and wrote his dissertation on a Qumran text entitled 4QInstruction. His publications focus on the Dead Sea Scrolls and ancient Judaism, and his most recent book is The Apocrypha: A Guide (Oxford, 2024). His current book project is on demons and monsters in ancient Judaism and early Christianity.

This lecture is entitled Singing the Sacred: Music and the Holy in Ancient Christianity. It was presented by Susan Ashbrook Harvey of Brown University on May 15, 2022, at the University of Chicago's Rockefeller Chapel.

In this episode I talk to Dr. James Ware, scholar of New Testament and Ancient Christianity and professor emeritus at the University of Evansville, about his brand-new The Final Triumph of God: Jesus, the Eyewitnesses, and the Resurrection of the Body in 1 Corinthians 15, out now on Eerdmans, which is a line-by-line commentary of Paul's most iconic statement of the resurrection at the end of the first Corinthian epistle. We look at the significance and centrality of the resurrection for Christian faith, the wider context of 1 Corinthians, and then engage in a passage-by-passage review of 1 Corinthians 15, dealing with all the complex exegetical questions it poses. The resurrection is the heart of the Christian hope, and this lengthy chapter needs to be taken seriously! Media Referenced:The Final Triumph of God: https://a.co/d/8zHHXFr James Ware Amazon page https://www.amazon.com/stores/James-P.-Ware/author/B001JXUOPS?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1742654742&sr=8-1&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=3bfa1604-b6e2-4c27-bb83-5236f2524088The Protestant Libertarian Podcast is a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute and a part of the Christians For Liberty Network.

What is the Nag Hammadi Library? An Interview with Dr. Dylan Burns Dr. Dylan Burns, a leading scholar on the “Nag Hammadi Library” and related texts, describes the significance of the 1945 archaeological discovery in Nag Hammadi, Egypt. It is not only of great importance for a better understanding of Christian origins, but many of the texts also reveal a great beauty and probing inquiry into the meaning of the divine in human experience. Their great diversity and welcome for women leadership were among the greatest surprises. Dr. Dylan M. Burns is Assistant Professor of the History of Esotericism in Late Antiquity at the University of Amsterdam. He earned his doctorate in Ancient Christianity at Yale University in 2011, before holding research positions in Copenhagen, Leipzig, and Berlin. Among his books are Apocalypse of the Alien God: Platonism and the Exile of Sethian Gnosticism (2014), Did God Care? Providence, Dualism, and Will in Later Greek and Early Christian Philosophy (2020), and The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi Codices (2022).

The Christian life is intended to get stronger and stronger and stronger with time. Unfortunately, this hasn't been the experience of many believers in the modern era. But that isn't because it isn't God's pattern, it's because often modern Christians are lacking the key ingredient of persistence in their walk. They give up at the first sign of challenge—they give up when they reach the first obstacle. Ancient Christianity is built on the premise that when you are knocked down you get up, and you keep getting up after every single knock down until finally you breakthrough and knock out your opponent. William Wilberforce is an amazing picture of this indomitable perseverance.

Renegade Supply Store: https://renegade-supply-shop.printify.me/products   Sometimes as people when we encounter a problem, we tend to look forward to try to get perspective on the issue we are facing. Now that's not a bad thing, sometimeshowever the perspective we desire is found behind us. Now let's look at Mormonism. Could it be that perhaps other religious traditions have gone through something similar that Mormonism has with splits from the mainstream that has led to different groups and churches? Well today I have Justin Francom on to talk about the split that happened in early Christianity that led to the development of what is today known as Eastern Orthodox Christianity. In our conversation we cover the history of the early Christian church, then move on to discuss the reasons and doctrinal disagreements that precipitated the split, we then draw some very interesting connections between the split that happened almost 2,000 years ago to what has happened to Mormonism today that should give us the perspective we need to move forward. Finaly we wrap up by talking about opportunities moving forward that just might help the various groups and independents find common ground while allowing us to disagree more agreeably. That and more on this episode of the MRP. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dave-kirkenbower/support

This week, we share a “Space for God” devotional offered by author and executive director of Theological Horizons, Karen Wright Marsh. Karen guides us into the life and work of Ephrem of Syria (c. 306-373). The "lyric theology" of this early Christian pastor, poet, refugee, theologian, and songwriter has the power to refresh our perspectives even today. Karen concludes our time together by listening prayerfully to a recording of Ephrem's "Hymn to the Light.""Hymn to the Light" by Ephrem the SyrianOur King comes in majestic glory.Let us light our lamps and go forth to meet Him.Let us find our joy in Him, for He has found joy in us.He will indeed rejoice us with His marvelous light.Let us glorify the majesty of the Son and give thanks to the almighty FatherWho, in an outpouring of love, sent Him to us, to fill us with hope and salvation.When He manifests Himself, the saints awaiting Him in weariness and sorrow,will go forth to meet Him with lighted lamps.The angels and guardians of heaven will rejoicein the glory of the just and upright people of earth;Together crowned with victory,they will sing hymns and psalms.Stand up then and be ready!Give thanks to our King and Savior,Who will come in great glory to gladden uswith His marvelous light in His kingdom.View Our Complete Archive of “Space for God” Prayer PracticesLearn More About Spiritual Direction through Coracleinthecoracle.org  |  @inthecoracleSupport the Show.

Dr. Jason R. Combs is an associate professor of Ancient Scripture and affiliate faculty of Ancient Near Eastern Studies at Brigham Young University. He also edited the book 'Ancient Christians: An Introduction for Latter-Day Saints.'I wanted to speak to Jason as I am often saddened that I gloss over the 1500+ year period of what we call the Great Apostasy, I find it quite a disparaging term considering the incredible sacrifices of countless truth-seekers and Jason's book helps to bring those important stories of ancient Christians to light and connect them to us, Latter-day Saints.Some highlights from this episode include why Latter-day Saints misunderstand the Nicene Creed, what the primitive Church may have looked like compared to the modern Church, and the incredible story of Perpetua.--You can find more of Jason's work at the following links:- https://mi.byu.edu/book/ancient-christians/- https://www.jasonrobertcombs.com/Follow For All The Saints on social media for updates and inspiring content:www.instagram.com/forallthesaintspodhttps://www.facebook.com/forallthesaintspod/For All The Saints episodes are released every Monday on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVDUQg_qZIU&list=UULFFf7vzrJ2LNWmp1Kl-c6K9Qhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3j64txm9qbGVVZOM48P4HS?si=bb31d048e05141f2https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/for-all-the-saints/id1703815271If you have feedback or any suggestions for topics or guests, connect with Ben & Sean via hello@forallthesaints.org or DM on InstagramConversations to Refresh Your Faith.For All The Saints podcast was established in 2023 by Ben Hancock to express his passion and desire for more dialogue around faith, religious belief, and believers' perspectives on the topics of our day.

The Australian eSafety regulator continues to fight for censorship in the name of "safety risks." Elon Musk and X have refused to back down and will not remove the viral footage of a jihadi attack on a Christian bishop. Speaking of free speech, Glenn Beck sits down with RFK Jr., and they highlight how liberals are now pro-war and pro-censorship. Joe Biden looks lost and blasphemous in Tampa, Florida.

Christians don't know their Christian history. By and large that is true. However, the more we learn of our past, the better we understand our present. But how can busy believers today gain this insight? One way is by listening to sermons delivered by great Christian pastors long ago. Troy Frasier joins the Christian Emergency Podcast to share how he brings lost sermons to life. These sermons, along with helpful and relevant historical context, can be listened to on the Revived Thoughts Podcast. On your commute to work or when carting kids to practice, you can listen to these engaging sermons. Another fascinating resource discussed on today's episode is the Martyrs and Missionaries Podcast. This program, hosted by Troy's wife, provides similar insights. Instead of sermons, however, you learn about famous missionaries, martyrs and missional movements. The content is thoroughly researched and riveting. If you find this episode helpful, please give us a positive rating and review wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts. Also share this episode with a friend so they too can be blessed by these insights. To learn more about resources mentioned in this episode, see the following.

An interview with Dr. Susan M. (Elli) Elliott In answer to a listener's question about how attitudes toward singleness evolved in Christianity, Dr. Elliott draws on her knowledge of family legislation that Caesar Augustus inflicted on the Romans well before Jesus's ministry. Followers of Jesus often followed the common but conflicting Roman attitudes toward elite and lower-class women. But early on, they also assumed a counter-cultural position against the notion that spouses were disposable.

Dr. Kenneth Calvert joins us today to talk about the very first Christians--those who turned the world upside-down! Be inspired and encouraged by the early church, which began under the heavy arm of the Roman Empire. Long after the Roman has fallen, the church goes on! Along with many stories, we talk about my favorite ancient Christian, Polycarp. Dr. Calvert is the Professor of History and Director of the Oxford Program at Hillsdale College.  @hillsdalecollege  You can take his course on Ancient Christianity for free at https://online.hillsdale.edu/landing/ancient-christianity.  @HillsdaleOnline  #faith #god #church #firstchristians #ancienthistory #ancientreligion #ancientchristianity #hillsdale Follow us on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/bumperstickerfaith   Find us on Instagram @bumperstickerfaith Won't you please consider becoming part of the BS Crew?

Introduction We all know what it's like to play games with other people. But did you know that more and more games every year give you the opportunity to play them by yourself? And we're not just talking solitaire here. We're talking multi-player games with a solo mode—as well as games that are designed to be played by only one person. They can be small games with boxes you can hide under a dinner roll, to epic sprawling experiences that you lay out on your table and leave there till Christmas. So what does it mean to play alone, and what lessons can we learn from the experience? This week we are thrilled to welcome Dr. Liz Davidson, from the Beyond Solitaire podcast, to discuss these questions—and more!—on Board Game Faith, the biweekly show exploring the intersection of spirituality, religion, and board games! Introducing Dr. Liz Davidson PhD from Yale University in Ancient Christianity in 2014 Has taught on the high school and college level in Latin, Greek, English, and Math Is currently a Latin teacher at Parkview High School in Atlanta, GA, where she lives Has a website, YouTube channel, and podcast, Beyond Solitaire What are the personal benefits to solo board gaming? * So much of board games, popularly understood, is their social aspect – competition, shared narratives and experiences, socializing with others. * What it means to play alone, in terms of learning to enjoy your own company. Should people practice spending time with themselves?  Historical Games * I have a historical background (Ph.D. in Ancient Christianity, to be precise). How does that inform my understanding of historical gaming? (Especially games on religious topics?) * What are some good historical games, and can history ever be represented in a game? Solo Gaming & Ethics Does solo board gaming open up a different range of ethical possibilities in play? Would you treat an automated opponent differently than a human one? Favorite Solo Games!

We! Are! Back! Happy New Year!!! Welcome to season 3!!! In episode one  we revisit the book, Free to Be: A Handbook to Luther's Small Catechism.  The subject at hand is the Lord's Supper.  The prevailing view is that the Sacrament of the Altar is memorial or symbolic in nature. Yet, biblically and according to church history, Christ is bodily present, in, with, and under the bread and wine.  He promises to never leave us nor forsake us. He promises to forgive us of our sin. According to Matthew 26:26,  He keeps those promises at the Lord's Table, bodily. "Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.”  And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you,  for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins." What an amazing promise. Such a comfort!

A lot of Christians believe there wasn't anything important that happened after the events of New Testament. But Ancient Christians had a lot of courage, a lot of faith, and some important lessons for modern day Christians today... especially during this Christmas season. Mark Ellison and Jason Combs join Boyd to discuss their new book, "Ancient Christians." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

FLAME discusses how to best understand the Extra Nos Series. He list things to avoid and things to consider. Due to most people's generic American understanding of Christianity, we are unfortunately underexposed to what Ancient Christianity is. Therefore, we are limited in experience of all the sweetness of the gospel. FLAME then walks through a portion of the book: Free to Be: A handbook to Luther's Small Catechism. Enjoy!  

FYI: "I like Pagans and Paganism." -Antonio Myers "Since Jesus didn't create Christianity, where did Christianity originate from and who created it? The truth is that it came from the Roman Empire. In 312 AD, the emperor of Rome, which was Constantine made the most controversial and impactful decision. Emperor Constantine converted his empire from Paganism to his new religion called "Christianity." And under that umbrella was the Roman Catholic Church. Constantine called his belief "Christianity," but Jesus and his Apostles never called their faith that, and the reason is because Constantine's religion had absolutely nothing to do with what Jesus' taught. Constantine's Christianity was controversial from the original beliefs and doctrines of the Apostles because it went against everything they stood for and died for. Ancient Christianity was based off of the utilization of minimal scriptures, and a bunch of Paganism! This religion that Constantine created that's still being practiced today not only by Catholics, but by many Protestants is actually astonishing! The religion of Christianity believes in a Trinity, (which is what they say to be One God existing in three mini-gods at the same time, which comes from the Pagan belief of the Mother god, son of god, and father god.) Constantine's "Christianity" and "Catholic" doctrine was 100% demonic and not of God! The idolatry and Paganism incorporated within their beliefs shifted their beliefs from worshiping Jesus as the only true God, to worshiping Mary, their other two members of their Trinity, and the saints. It wasn't only the Catholic Church who were corrupt, but everyone included in the new religions that were formed from Christianity that came from the Protestant Reformation known as "denominations." These new denominations that were formed are all off-shoots of the Catholic church. Many different beliefs, doctrines, and divisions were formed from the Protestant Reformation, and believe it or not, this reformation wasn't of God. God is not a God of confusion, and didn't intend for there to be many different religions or denominations that claim they're all "Christian," but deny him in their doctrinal beliefs." Link: Jesus Didn't Start Christianity, Constantine Did. (theodysseyonline.com) "Sex is a consensual experience. When it isn't consensual it goes by another name. If you and/or your sexual health were violated, you have the right to hold your casual sex partner accountable and demand recourse. Putting the word “casual” in front of “sex” doesn't give anyone permission to ignore your boundaries, not ask for your consent, or share your private information without your knowledge. It isn't an excuse to treat someone poorly or coercively. So, to conclude. If you're looking for a CSR be honest about your intentions both with your partner and yourself. After four weeks of mental agony and gymnastics, I've realised that you can either worry about it or just be upfront with yourself. If you don't feel ready for a long-term relationship it's okay to admit that to yourself. However, wanting to fuck is NOT an excuse to not give a fuck. It's also not an excuse to lower your standards. To me, a CSR isn't that much different from an “actual” relationship. You still need to communicate with your partner, treat them well, and be a positive influence in their life. The sex will be better and you won't feel like a dirtbag."
