#366 In this episode, the host welcomes Peter Panagore for the third time on the podcast to delve into deep discussions on spirituality, mysticism, and the challenges of modern life. The conversation kicks off with Peter's insights on the suppression of internal salvation within Western religious frameworks, advocating for spiritual awakening from within rather than relying on external saviors. They discuss key themes such as the light breaking through worldly illusions, the mystical experiences Peter had during his near-death experience, and the importance of the heart in spiritual practice. Peter shares his extensive knowledge on ancient texts like the Gospels of Mary and Thomas, highlighting their significance in understanding Christ's teachings on oneness. They also explore the potential impact of AI and societal shifts on spirituality, emphasizing the role of love and compassion in shaping a benevolent future. The episode encourages listeners to embrace mystical experiences and integrate spiritual practices into their daily lives, fostering a sense of unity and compassion. About Peter: Reverend Peter Panagore, M. Div., Yale, is the author of two best-sellers, “Two Minutes for God,” a 7/365 collection of inspirational devotions that aired daily for fifteen years on two NBC News stations in Maine and New Hampshire, and ‘Heaven Is Beautiful: How Dying Taught Me That Death Is Just the Beginning”, an audible best seller that is available globally. His upcoming third book tells true tales of modern mystics in the classical tradition, in the high hopes that he can inspire more people to come out and share their own mystical experiences.  – He previously served as a United Church of Christ minister and pastor in Maine and Connecticut. He now speaks from pulpits, stages, and on national and international media about Near Death Experience, the Reality of God, Christian mysticism, meditation, and prayer.  – Reverend Peter Panagore, M.Div (Yale) has had two near-death experiences, the first while ice climbing in 1980 and the second in 2015 due to a heart attack. In this episode, he recalls his near death experience in March 1980 when he went ice climbing along the Ice Fields Parkway in Alberta Canada with an experienced ice climber. He shares their countless misfortunes on their descent, how he was overcome by exhaustion and hypothermia.

Thinking on Scripture with Dr. Steven R. Cook

Introduction      The study of angels, Satan, and demons matters to the Christian because it opens our eyes to the unseen spiritual realities that shape the visible world in which we live. It helps us understand our place in God's unfolding plan for humanity so that we may walk wisely in a fallen world.      Holy angels are created spiritual beings—intelligent, powerful, immortal, and organized for divine service. They are active participants in God's plan, protecting believers (Psa 91:11), executing judgment (2 Kgs 19:35), delivering messages (Luke 1:26-38), and even observing our lives (1 Cor 4:9; 1 Pet 1:12). God employs them to support His purposes and to assist His people in executing His will.      But there are spiritual dangers—unseen enemies who defy God, oppose His purposes, and seek to harm those who belong to Him and strive to do His will. We often assume our struggles are rooted in the material world, but Scripture reveals otherwise: “Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places” (Eph 6:12). Satan is a real, cunning, and malicious being with a long history of opposing God, attacking truth, and deceiving humanity (John 8:44; 2 Cor 4:4). His primary strategy is deception—twisting truth just enough to make the lie believable (Gen 3:1-5). He infiltrates thought patterns, manipulates culture, promotes false religion, and targets believers' minds to sow doubt, fear, bitterness, and pride. Demons assist him in this agenda—promoting false doctrine (1 Tim 4:1), afflicting individuals (Mark 5:1-20), and energizing unbelievers to walk in darkness (Eph 2:2).      As Christians, we are not called to bind demons, rebuke Satan, or engage in mystical confrontations. Rather, we are commanded to resist him by standing firm in the truth, wearing the full armor of God, and remaining grounded in the gospel (Eph 6:10-18; Jam 4:7). Spiritual warfare is not won by shouting louder, but by thinking biblically, praying dependently, living obediently, and walking faithfully in God's will. Knowing that Satan is a defeated enemy—on a leash and headed for eternal judgment—gives us confidence, not fear (Col 2:15; Rev 20:10).      Most importantly, this doctrine drives us back to the gospel. All people are born into Satan's domain of darkness (Col 1:13), but through faith in Christ, we are transferred into His kingdom, sealed by the Holy Spirit, and forever safe from demonic possession and eternal condemnation (Eph 1:13-14; John 10:28). Though spiritual conflict continues, it is not a battle for salvation, but for sanctification, testimony, and eternal reward (1 Cor 3:12-15). And in that battle, God has not left us unequipped or alone. His Word is our weapon, His Spirit our strength, and His Son our victory.      In short, the study of angels, Satan, and demons matters because it's true, it's biblical, and it's intensely practical. To ignore it is to be spiritually naïve. To understand it is to be spiritually alert—walking with eyes wide open, armor on, heart steady, and hope anchored in the triumph of Christ. Angelology      Angels are spiritual beings created by God before the foundation of the world (Job 38:6-7; Col 1:16). The Hebrew word for angel is malʾāk, meaning “messenger,” and the Greek equivalent is angelos, also meaning “messenger.” These terms refer not to the nature of the being but to their function—agents who carry out God's directives. Angels are entirely distinct from humans and are never said to become human or vice versa (Heb 1:14; 2:16). They are intelligent (Matt 28:5-6), powerful (Psa 103:20; 2 Th 1:7), and immortal (Luke 20:36). They are innumerable (Heb 12:22; Rev 5:11) and are organized into ranks and classifications, such as cherubim (Gen 3:24; Ex 25:20), seraphim (Isa 6:2-3), and archangels (1 Th 4:16; Jude 1:9; cf. Dan 10:13; 21; 12:1). Despite their might and glory, they are not to be worshiped (Rev 22:8-9). Their loyalty is divided: some remained holy and serve the Lord (Mark 8:38), while others rebelled and now oppose His purposes (2 Pet 2:4; Rev 12:4, 9).      Holy angels function as God's messengers and ministers. They worship Him perpetually (Isa 6:3; Rev 4:8), carry out His judgments (Gen 19:12-13; Acts 12:23), and minister to believers (Heb 1:14). They have mediated divine revelation (Acts 7:53; Gal 3:19), protected God's people (Psa 34:7; Dan 6:22), and executed His will in historical events (Ex 12:23; 2 Kgs 19:35). For example, an angel shut the mouths of lions to preserve Daniel (Dan 6:22), and an angel released Peter from prison (Acts 12:7-10). Angels also play a key role in the return of Christ, accompanying Him in glory and executing divine wrath upon the earth (Matt 24:31; 2 Th 1:7-9; Rev 7:1-2; 16:1). Though invisible to the human eye under normal circumstances, they may appear in human form when necessary (Gen 18:2; Heb 13:2), always in submission to God's purposes and plans.      Importantly, believers today are to understand angels as ministers within God's providential order, not as sources of new revelation or mystical experiences (Col 2:18). The modern fascination with angels often drifts into dangerous sentimentalism or superstition, untethered from Scripture. But Scripture reminds us that angels observe our lives (1 Cor 4:9; 1 Pet 1:12), rejoice when sinners repent (Luke 15:10), and will one day gather the elect for Christ's kingdom (Matt 13:39-41; 24:31). Yet they remain behind the scenes, pointing not to themselves, but to the glory of God. Believers are never told to command, summon, or pray to angels. Instead, we rest in the knowledge that God's angelic servants are real, active, and aligned with His loving care and justice. Their presence reminds us of the unseen reality of spiritual warfare, divine oversight, and the majesty of the God they serve (Psa 91:11; Dan 10:12-13; Rev 5:11-12). Steven R. Cook, D.Min., M.Div.

After being born again by faith alone in Christ alone, we are to continue in faith. Paul wrote, “as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him” (Col 2:6). We received Jesus by faith, and after being born again, we are to “walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Cor 5:7). The word “walk” translates the Greek verb peripateō (περιπατέω), which is here used as a metaphor for how we live, behave, or habitually conduct our lives. To walk by faith means we learn and apply God's Word to our lives (i.e., marriage, family, education, work, finances, etc.). It means obeying God's directives, claiming His promises, and utilizing His resources for our daily problems. We are also instructed to “walk by the Spirit” and not the flesh (Gal 5:16). When we live by faith and depend on the Spirit for strength and guidance, we “walk in a manner worthy of the calling” with which we have been called (Eph 4:1). As Christians, we are instructed to learn God's Word that we might come to know our new identity in Christ and lay hold of the many blessings God has provided for us as His children. Gospel information started our journey of faith, and Bible doctrine is the basis for our spiritual walk and advance to maturity. The advancing believer is living the righteous life that God expects, for He says, “My righteous one shall live by faith” (Heb 10:38), and “faith is being sure of what we hope for, being convinced of what we do not see” (Heb 11:1 NET). To live by faith in God and His Word pleases Him, for “without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him” (Heb 11:6). Paul said, “we have as our ambition…to be pleasing to Him” (2 Cor 5:9). Christians who fail to live by faith, who choose not to learn and/or live by God's Word, will default to humanistic philosophies, values, and experiences. In immature or carnal Christians, experiences and feelings will be regarded as more real, reliable, and important than God and His Word. Though we can enjoy our experiences and feelings (when they align with God), these are not stable, so we must be careful not to prioritize them or make them the base of operations. Divine wisdom should be our base of operations, as God wants us to learn and live His Word, to trust Him in all things, and to live by faith as obedient-to-the-Word children. When feelings rise high, faith must rise higher, lest we get bogged down and trapped in faulty reasonings that enslave and hinder our spiritual life and victory. The walk of faith requires discipline of mind and will. Ultimately, “whatever is not from faith is sin” (Rom 14:23). Faith starts with God and His directives and promises. Once we learn about God's directives, provisions and promises, He expects us to live by them, to be “doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude” ourselves (Jam 1:22). It is possible to learn God's Word and not apply it by faith, which is why James wrote, “to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin” (Jam 4:17). It is a sin not to live by faith. The writer to the Hebrews warned his readers, saying, “Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God” (Heb 3:12). After hearing God's Word, it is evil for a Christian not to believe it. It's evil because God's Word is absolute truth (2 Sam 7:28; Psa 119:160; John 17:17), and rejecting or doubting it implies that God, who cannot lie (Num 23:19; Tit 1:2; Heb 6:18), is untrustworthy, which is an affront to His perfect nature. This evil behavior was exemplified by the Israelites in the wilderness, for after they'd been delivered from Egyptian bondage, they failed to live by faith (Num 14:11), angered the Lord (Psa 95:8-11), and so forfeited the blessing of inheriting the land (Heb 3:15-18). The danger for us as Christians is that we might know God's directives and promises, but fail to apply them by faith, and never benefit from His blessings. The writer to the Hebrews said, “Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it. For indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also; but the word they heard did not profit them, because it was not united by faith in those who heard” (Heb 4:1-2). Hindrances to the Walk of Faith The hindrances to Christian faith are numerous, but they all share one common feature: they obstruct the believer's ability to live in active dependence on God and obedience to His Word. Among the most dangerous is ignorance of God's Word, which the Lord denounced when He said, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” (Hos 4:6). The Christian life cannot be lived in a doctrinal vacuum. Truth must be learned before it can be applied. Without sound doctrine, believers are spiritually malnourished, vulnerable to deception, and unable to live a life that honors God (2 Tim 2:15; 3:16-17; 1 Pet 2:2; 2 Pet 3:18). Ignorance guarantees defeat in the spiritual life, not because God withholds grace, but because we fail to appropriate it. Another major hindrance is irrational and unwarranted fear, which paralyzes faith and distorts perspective. Paul reminded Timothy that “God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline” (2 Tim 1:7). Fear can override truth when allowed to take root in the heart, leading to cowardice in witness, compromise in conviction, and retreat from divine opportunity. Like the Israelites at the edge of Canaan (Num 13:31–14:4), believers who allow fear to dominate their thinking often forfeit the blessings of forward movement in God's plan. Also, failure to claim God's promises is a silent killer of the spiritual life. Hebrews warns of “an evil, unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God” (Heb 3:12), not in the sense of losing salvation, but of turning away from the daily walk of faith. God's promises are anchors for the soul (Heb 6:18-19), and to neglect them is to drift aimlessly through life, tossed by circumstances rather than guided by divine certainty. Faith appropriates what God has revealed and rests confidently in His faithfulness, even when circumstances contradict what is seen. Unwarranted self-reliance is another subtle enemy. While human effort has its place in Christian discipline, trust in self apart from God is condemned. Solomon cautioned, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding” (Prov 3:5), and Jeremiah adds, “Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind and makes flesh his strength” (Jer 17:5). The Christian life is supernatural and cannot be lived in the power of the flesh. Self-dependence is spiritual sabotage. Furthermore, yielding to the pressures and pleasures of the world is a treacherous distraction. James minces no words when he writes, “Friendship with the world is hostility toward God” (Jam 4:4), and John adds that “if anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him” (1 John 2:15). Worldliness appeals to the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the boastful pride of life—all of which are inconsistent with the life of faith. Lastly, choosing the desires of the flesh over the will of God leads to spiritual defeat and divine discipline. Paul teaches that “the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit” (Gal 5:17), and Peter exhorts believers to “abstain from fleshly lusts which wage war against the soul” (1 Pet 2:11). The Christian must actively choose to walk by the Spirit (Gal 5:16), moment by moment, if he is to live victoriously. In sum, these hindrances—ignorance, fear, unbelief, self-reliance, worldliness, and fleshly desire—are not minor setbacks; they are spiritual roadblocks. The remedy is found in consistent intake of God's Word (2 Tim 3:16-17; 1 Pet 2:2), transformation through mind-renewal (Rom 12:1-2), a life of faith anchored in divine promises (Heb 11:6), and moment-by-moment dependence on the Holy Spirit for guidance and strength (Gal 5:16). Where faith flourishes, these hindrances fall. God's Word is Reliable Though Peter had personally seen and heard Christ (2 Pet 1:16-18), he told his readers, “We have the prophetic word made more sure” (2 Pet 1:19a). Other translations read, “we possess the prophetic word as an altogether reliable thing” (2 Pet 1:19a NET), and “We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable” (2 Pet 1:19a NIV). The words “more sure” translate the Greek adjective bebaios (βέβαιος) which means reliable, dependable, or trustworthy. According to BDAG, it refers to “something that can be relied on not to cause disappointment.”[1] Kenneth Wuest states, “The idea here is of something that is firm, stable, something that can be relied upon or trusted in. The idea in the Greek text is, ‘We have the prophetic word as a surer foundation' than even the signs and wonders which we have seen.”[2] Robert B. Thieme Jr., notes, “God's Word is more real than empirical knowledge, more reliable than anything seen, heard, or felt (2 Pet 1:12–21). Unlike the grass that withers and the flowers that fade, ‘the word of our God stands forever' (Isa 40:8). God guarantees that His Word never goes forth without accomplishing His will (Isa 55:11).”[3] The point is that God's Word is absolutely reliable, “to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place” (2 Pet 1:19b). This absolute reliability of Scripture flows from the unchanging character of God Himself. God is perfect in holiness, infinite in wisdom, and absolute in truth. He cannot lie, nor does He ever fail to keep His promises. As Scripture states, “God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent; has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?” (Num 23:19). Paul wrote that God “cannot lie” (Tit 1:2), and the writer of Hebrews affirms “it is impossible for God to lie” (Heb 6:18). Because of this, His Word is completely trustworthy. God never speaks in vain; His Word is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, and able to pierce the deepest parts of the human soul (Heb 4:12). What He reveals is not merely informative—it is transformative. As Isaiah recorded, “so will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; it will not return to Me empty, without accomplishing what I desire, and without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it” (Isa 55:11). God's promises are as dependable as His character, and trusting in them is never misplaced faith—it is the most rational and secure response a believer can have. Conclusion In summary, the Christian life is a walk of faith that is empowered by the Holy Spirit and grounded in God's Word. Faith is not blind or speculative; rather, it is a confident trust in the revealed truths of Scripture, producing a life that seeks to honor God through obedience and reliance on His promises. To walk by faith is to live in active dependence on God, letting His Word shape our thinking, guide our actions, and strengthen us for every challenge we may face. The Holy Spirit works through the Scriptures to instruct, remind, and empower us, enabling us to live the Christian life. As believers, we are called to a disciplined life of learning and applying God's Word, and not trusting in experiences or feelings. The walk of faith is pleasing to God, honors Him, edifies others, and brings us mental and emotional stability. Steven R.

Thinking on Scripture with Dr. Steven R. Cook

     Paul wrote to Christians, “don't get drunk with wine, which leads to reckless actions, but be filled by the Spirit” (Eph 5:18 CSB). If a believer consumes too much alcohol, it can lead to cognitive impairment and harmful behavior. But the believer who is filled with the Spirit will possess divine viewpoint and manifest the fruit of godliness, worship, and thankfulness to the Lord (Eph 5:19-20). To be filled with the Spirit (Eph 5:18) means to be under the guiding influence of the Holy Spirit, who directs the believer's thoughts, attitudes, and actions in accordance with God's revealed will in Scripture. It does not mean getting more of the Spirit—every believer already has the indwelling Spirit from the moment of salvation (1 Cor 6:19; Gal 3:2). Rather, it means the Holy Spirit gets more of you—your mind, your volition, your conduct. According to Chafer, “To be filled with the Spirit is to have the Spirit fulfilling in us all that He came into our hearts to do.”[1]      The Greek word translated filled is πληρόω (plēroō), which literally means “to make full” (BDAG, 827), but it often carries the figurative sense of being dominated, influenced, or characterized by something.[2] In Ephesians 5:18, the present passive imperative form (πληροῦσθε) indicates a continuous command for the believer to keep on being filled—that is, habitually directed and empowered by the Spirit. The passive voice implies this is something done to us, not by us; it's not something we manufacture, but something we allow through yielding. The imperative mood makes it a command to be obeyed, and this by faith (2 Cor 5:7; Heb 10:38).      This idea of internal influence is seen elsewhere—where hearts are filled with sorrow (John 16:6), minds with divine wisdom (Col 1:9), or lives with righteous fruit (Phil 1:11). In each case, the idea is a dominating influence that shapes behavior (cf. Luke 4:28; 5:26; Acts 13:45). Likewise, being filled with the Spirit means being so under His influence that our attitudes, decisions, and actions align with God's will. Ephesians 5:18-21 shows the fruit of Spirit-filling: joyful singing, gratitude, and submission. The parallel in Colossians 3:16 says, “Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you,” linking the Spirit's filling with Scripture's influence. The Spirit of God guides us by means of the Word of God, which He helps us understand and which He recalls to our thinking when needed. As we learn to walk by the Spirit (Gal 5:16), in step with His guidance, the fruit of the Spirit becomes manifest (Gal 5:22-23). The Spirit Illumines and Recalls Scripture      The Spirit of God teaches us, illumines our minds, and recalls Scripture for us to obey. Jesus told His disciples in John 16 that the Holy Spirit would “guide you into all the truth” (John 16:13), and that “He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you” (John 14:26). This promise, originally given to the apostles, has a broader application in the Church Age, as the Spirit continues to illuminate God's Word for all believers (1 Cor 2:12-13).      The Spirit of God uses the Word of God to shape and direct the child of God. He brings light to the text and light to the heart, enabling us not only to understand Scripture but to recall and apply it in real-time situations (cf. Psa 119:105). This is the backbone of spiritual growth—learning Bible doctrine, storing it in the heart, and then watching the Spirit activate that truth when it's most needed (John 17:17; 2 Tim 3:16-17). The Christian who walks by the Spirit is not passive but mentally engaged, saturated with Scripture, and spiritually responsive, willing to do God's will. As Christians learn and apply Scripture, they are wielding “the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Eph 6:17). Walk by Faith      After being born again by faith alone in Christ alone (Rom 3:28; Gal 2:16; Eph 2:8-9), we are to continue in faith. Paul wrote, “as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him” (Col 2:6). We received Jesus by faith, and after being born again, we are to “walk by faith, not by sight” (2 Cor 5:7). The word “walk” translates the Greek verb peripateō (περιπατέω), which is here used as a metaphor for how we live, behave, or habitually conduct our lives. To walk by faith means we learn and apply God's Word to our lives (i.e., marriage, family, education, work, finances, etc.). It means obeying God's directives, claiming His promises, and utilizing His resources for our daily problems. We are also instructed to “walk by the Spirit” and not the flesh (Gal 5:16). When we live by faith and depend on the Spirit for strength and guidance, we “walk in a manner worthy of the calling” with which we have been called (Eph 4:1).      As Christians, we are commanded to “walk by the Spirit” (Gal 5:16), which means walking in daily, moment by moment, dependance of the Spirit's guidance. This means learning God's Word and applying it by faith. The walk of faith and walking by the Spirit are not two different paths—they are one and the same. Both describe the Christian life lived in moment-by-moment dependence on God. Walking by faith means trusting in God's promises, character, and provisions even when circumstances seem contrary (2 Cor 5:7; Heb 10:38; 11:1, 6). Walking by the Spirit means yielding to the Spirit's guidance, relying on His power, and following His lead in obedience to the Word (Gal 5:16, 25). These are complementary perspectives on the same spiritual reality.      The Spirit of God never leads contrary to the Word of God. And the life of faith is never disconnected from the Spirit's enablement. Just as we are justified by grace through faith (Rom 5:1), we are also sanctified by grace through faith—by walking in step with the Spirit (Gal 3:3). That means trusting Him to empower us to say “no” to the flesh and “yes” to righteousness (Rom 6:11-14; Gal 5:22-23). Faith is the channel, and the Spirit is the agent. When we walk by the Spirit, we walk by faith; and when we walk by faith, we're relying on the Spirit's power, not our own effort.      In practical terms, walking by the Spirit through faith means living each day in confident trust that God's Word is true, God's Spirit is present, and God's grace is sufficient. We don't always feel spiritual—but we can always choose to trust. It's a mindset of humble dependence that says, “Lord, I believe Your Word, and I'm counting on You to work through me today.” Summary      In summary, to be filled with the Spirit is to live the Christian life under divine influence—thinking God's thoughts, responding with His wisdom, and walking in His will. It is not an emotional high or mystical experience but a steady, faith-dependent surrender to the Spirit's guidance through the Word of God. The Spirit illumines, teaches, and recalls truth so that the believer can obey in real time. He empowers what Scripture commands and aligns our lives with God's desires. This filling is not about getting more of the Spirit but about the Spirit getting more of us—our thoughts, our attitudes, our choices. As we walk by faith, saturated with Scripture and yielded to His leading, the Spirit produces His fruit in and through us. This is the healthy Christian life: not self-powered but Spirit-enabled; not works-based but grace-driven. The filling of the Spirit is how we live out the righteousness we've received in Christ—it's the engine behind all true spiritual growth, and it happens one step of faith at a time. Steven R. Cook, D.Min., M.Div.   [1] Lewis Sperry Chafer, The Ephesian Letter (New York: Loizeaux Brothers, 1935), 151. [2] The Greek word πίμπλημι (pimplēmi) communicates a similar idea. For example, in Luke 4:28, the people in the synagogue were “filled with rage” when Jesus exposed their unbelief. Similarly, Luke 5:26 describes a crowd that was “filled with fear” after witnessing a miracle, showing how awe and reverence seized their hearts. In Acts 13:45, the Jewish leaders “were filled with jealousy” upon seeing the crowds gather to hear Paul—they didn't just envy, they were controlled by envy, and it drove them to oppose the gospel.

In this episode, we sit down with Victoria Litman, M.Div., J.D., LL.M., to discuss why the future of psychedelic access in the United States is being shaped not by federal agencies, but by the bold actions of individual states. As a legal scholar and writer focusing on drug policy, Victoria breaks down the significance of the FDA's 2024 rejection of psychedelic-assisted therapy, and why that decision might be less of a setback than it seems. We explore how state-level initiatives like Oregon's Psilocybin Services Act and Colorado's Natural Medicine Health Act are setting the stage for a new model of access—one rooted in harm reduction, personal liberty, and existing regulatory infrastructure. Victoria discusses the importance of the Tenth Amendment and the Anti-Commandeering Doctrine, which allow states to move forward regardless of federal inaction. Rather than waiting for slow-moving federal institutions, Victoria argues that states can build safe, scalable systems now—especially by leveraging cannabis infrastructure for psychedelic regulation. She also touches on the ethical and cultural implications of this transition, including protections for spiritual and religious use. If you're wondering what psychedelic policy will look like in the years ahead, this episode offers an insightful and hopeful roadmap. Link to CATO article

Clark Carlton is back on the show this week to discuss a topic that is VERY MUCH needed right now. Many of us saw Texas Senator Ted Cruz make a complete fool of himself in his recent interview with Tucker Carlson. He stated that he believes that the "Israel" mentioned in the Book of Genesis is the same as the current State of Israel which was founded in 1948. Unfortunately, there are many folks who still believe this sort of thing and it's partially because they've been taught bad theology for years. It is worse when politicians have such bad Biblical understanding that they want their poor understanding to also inform their views on foreign policy.  Luckily, there are wise men like Dr Carlton who can simply and articulately explain  what is meant when we speak of the Israel of the Bible. Clark Carlton is an author and editor of the Ludwell Orthodox Fellowship. He has also taught philosophy for more than twenty-five years. A native of Tennessee, he earned a B.A. in philosophy from Carson-Newman College, an M.Div. from St. Vladimir's Seminary, and an M.A. and Ph.D. from the Catholic University of America. He is the author of "The Faith" Series and has been published in the Saint Vladimir's Theological Quarterly, the Journal of Early Christian Studies, Christian Bioethics, and Histoire de la Littérature Grecque Chrétienne des Origines à 451.

Thinking on Scripture with Dr. Steven R. Cook

     Sometime in eternity past, God the Father sent God the Son into the world to fulfill a divine mission. God's Word tells us, “The Father sent the Son to be the Savior of the world” (1 John 4:14). This was the great mission: to bring salvation to everyone. This act of God was done in love, as it is written, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16), and “He loved us and sent His Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins” (1 John 4:10). The Son agreed with the Father, saying, “I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me” (John 6:38), and “The Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost” (Luke 19:10). When God the Son came into the world and took upon Himself humanity, He executed His mission flawlessly.      The divine mission began in time and space nearly two thousand years ago when God the Son took upon Himself humanity. The writer to the Hebrews cites the words of God the Son as He was about to enter the world, saying, “Therefore, when He comes into the world, He says [to God the Father], ‘Sacrifice and offering You have not desired, but a body You have prepared for Me'” (Heb 10:5). The third Person of the Trinity, God the Holy Spirit, facilitated the mission by bringing about the hypostatic union within the womb of the virgin Mary (Isa 7:14; Luke 1:30-35; Gal 4:4). The angel Gabriel told Mary, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for that reason the holy Child shall be called the Son of God” (Luke 1:35). At the moment of conception in the womb of the virgin Mary, undiminished deity was combined forever with perfect humanity. Eventually, Jesus was born, and God “became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth” (John 1:14). The apostle Paul tells us, “For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form” (Col 2:9).      God's Word informs us that Jesus was a Jew, born a son of Abraham, in the line of David (Matt 1:1), the promised Messiah (Matt 1:17). Jesus grew in wisdom (Luke 2:40, 52) and lived a perfectly righteous life before God and man. The record of Scripture is that Jesus “knew no sin” (2 Cor 5:21), was “without sin” (Heb 4:15), “committed no sin” (1 Pet 2:22), and “in Him there is no sin” (1 John 3:5). In His humanity, Jesus walked in perfect conformity to God the Father's holy character and divine revelation. This is important, for Jesus' sinless life qualified Him to go to the cross and pay the ransom price for our sins (Mark 10:45).      When the divinely appointed time came for Jesus to go to the cross (John 12:23; 13:1), He went willingly (Isa 53:10; John 10:18). Just hours before the crucifixion, Jesus said to His Father, “I glorified You on the earth, having accomplished the work which You have given Me to do” (John 17:4). Then He went to the cross and “offered Himself without blemish to God” (Heb 9:14), giving “His life a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). Jesus paid our sin debt by means of His “precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ” (1 Pet 1:19). While on the cross, “Christ died for our sins” (1 Cor 15:3), and He died in our place, “the just for the unjust, so that He might bring us to God” (1 Pet 3:18; cf. Rom 5:8).      Jesus' death on the cross was a one-time event, as He “offered one sacrifice for sins for all time” (Heb 10:12). After Jesus paid for all our sins, “He said, ‘It is finished!' And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit” (John 19:30). Jesus' death on the cross satisfied every righteous demand of God the Father concerning the payment for our sins (Rom 3:25), for “He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world” (1 John 2:2). Jesus paid the price for all our sins. There's nothing more to pay. After Jesus died, He was placed in a grave and was resurrected to life on the third day (Acts 2:23-24; 4:10; 10:40; 1 Cor 15:3-4), never to die again (Rom 6:9). Because Christ died for everyone (John 3:16; Heb 2:9; 1 John 2:2), everyone is savable. The Bible tells us that God has brought “salvation to all men” (Tit 2:11), that He “desires all men to be saved” (1 Tim 2:4), and is “not wishing for any to perish” (2 Pet 3:9).      Once we understand who Jesus is, as God in the flesh (John 1:1, 14), and what He has accomplished for us on the cross—having died for our sins, was buried, and raised again on the third day (1 Cor 15:3-4)—we can then exercise our faith by trusting in Him as our Savior (John 3:16; 20:31). This is the Jesus of Scripture and history, and not a fake Jesus like those taught by Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, or one we create in our imagination. To receive salvation, the unbeliever is told to “believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31a). Jesus is the object of our faith. To believe in Christ as our Savior means we trust Him to accomplish for us what we cannot accomplish ourselves: eternal salvation from the lake of fire.      Faith in Christ is the only condition for salvation. Faith does not save; Christ saves. Faith is merely the instrument by which we receive the free gift of God, which is eternal life. Though the gift was very expensive for the Lord, it is offered totally free to us, for “the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Rom 6:23). And it is “by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast” (Eph 2:8-9). Only the empty hand of faith accepts the gift. It offers nothing but is open to receive that which is offered by another. God's gift is available to everyone, for “whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16), and “he who believes has eternal life” (John 6:47). No payment is required from us to receive it (Rom 4:4-5), and no precondition of good works is necessary before, during, or after salvation.      The only sin that keeps a person out of heaven is the sin of unbelief, the individual choice NOT to trust in Jesus as one's Savior. The one who rejects Jesus as Savior is judged by God on the sole ground that “he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:18). These are the ones who “are always resisting the Holy Spirit” (Acts 7:51; cf. John 16:8), who “do not believe” in Jesus as their Savior (John 16:9), and “are unwilling to come” to Him so that they “may have life” (John 5:40). Those who willingly reject Christ as Savior will, after death, experience eternal separation and punishment away from God for all eternity, for “if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire” (Rev 20:15). This need not happen. Hell is avoidable for the one who trusts in Christ as Savior, for “whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16). Salvation is a free gift from God (Rom 3:24; 6:23), offered by grace alone (Eph 2:8-9), through faith alone (Rom 3:28; Gal 2:16; 3:26; 2 Tim 3:15), in Christ alone (John 14:6; Acts 4:12), totally apart from human works (Rom 4:5; Eph 2:8-9; Tit 3:5). For lost sinners, the matter is simple: “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31).      Once we have trusted in Christ for salvation, we receive forgiveness of sins (Acts 10:43; Eph 1:7), the gift of righteousness (Rom 5:17; Phil 3:9), eternal life (John 3:16; 10:28), and many other blessings (Eph 1:3). And having entered into a relationship with God through Christ (John 1:12; Gal 3:26), we are then called to a life of holiness and righteousness (1 Pet 1:15-16), as we learn His Word (2 Tim 2:15; 3:16-17; 1 Pet 2:2; 2 Pet 3:18), walk by faith (2 Cor 5:7; Heb 10:38), and advance to spiritual maturity (Heb 6:1). This new walk with God will honor Him and edify others (Eph 4:1-2; 5:1-2).      Our forgiveness of sins, eternal life, and many wonderful blessings from God are all made possible because God the Son came down to us and accomplished what we cannot: our salvation. For this, we praise God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit for their work of salvation, for “having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ” (Rom 5:1). Amen. Steven R. Cook, D.Min., M.Div., B.Sc.

Dr. Robert Kolb joins The Concordia Publishing House Podcast to talk about the second edition of The Christian Faith, A Lutheran Exposition. Dr. Kolb, along with his coauthor Ted Hopkins, use the history of the church and its creeds and confessions as a guide to share new perspectives on the presentation of Christian doctrine for current day.Get the book on cph.org now. Show NotesFor Martin Luther, pure doctrine was not just the content of Scripture but also that content conveyed faithfully into the lives of those who hear God's Word.In this episode of The Concordia Publishing House Podcast, Dr. Robert Kolb joins host Elizabeth Pittman to talk about the second edition of The Christian Faith, A Lutheran Exposition. He discusses his personal faith journey and ministry, why doctrinal theology is necessary, how Law and Gospel are central to Lutheranism, cultural and theological challenges facing Christians today, and more.  QuestionsCould you tell us about your faith journey? How did you come to enter the ministry?What is your reaction to the election of Robert Francis Prevost as Pope? What was the motivation for revising The Christian Faith after three decades, and what new challenges in the church or society prompted this second edition?You begin the book with the resurrection of Jesus. Why is the empty tomb the starting point for Christian theology?Why is doctrinal theology necessary in every generation?Why is it significant that this is a Lutheran exposition of the Christian faith, and not just a general Christian theology textbook?You highlight the importance of distinguishing Law and Gospel. Why is this so central to Lutheran theology—and how can readers learn to do it well?How does theology “listen” both to God and to the neighbor, and what's the danger if we ignore either one?You note that “Christendom” is over. How does that change the task of theology and the way the Gospel is shared?What are some of the specific cultural or theological challenges facing Christians today that this new edition addresses?You write “The sanctified life is often called a life of new obedience.” What does a life of new obedience look like?In an age of increasing biblical illiteracy, how can theology still function as proclamation rather than just academic reflection?What do you say to someone who thinks doctrine divides more than it unites?About the Guest Rev. Dr. Robert Kolb received M. Div. and S.T.M. degrees from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis and a Ph.D. in history at the University of Wisconsin. He served as the director of the Center for Reformation Research from 1973-1977 and as a professor at Concordia College in Saint Paul, Minnesota from 1977-1993, then the acting president from 1989-1990.

What happens when churches, governments, and communities work together across differences in opinion for the common good? In this episode, Dr. Walter Kim, President of the National Association of Evangelicals, joins us to talk about how different parts of the evangelical church are responding to shifts in humanitarian aid and funding, and why these varied responses matter. We dig into the Biblical precedent for and history of public-private partnerships, the importance of government support, and how different Christian views of society and culture impact how churches engage with humanitarian work. Dr. Kim brings biblical insight, historical context, and practical wisdom for how the Church can stay grounded in compassion while navigating complexity.

Building on last week's conversation with Daniel Hill, I spoke with David Emerton about his systematic theological approach to ecclesiology. He outlines key distinctions between divine essence and human agency and uses these to frame four models of the church. David proposes a concept he calls "ecclesiological ecclesiology," which reframes how we talk about and live out what it means to be the church—before we jump into doing church.Youtube - https://youtu.be/7M4Gjl-Vtr8Audio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple -  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4Types of Ecclesiology, Five Theological Approaches - David Emerton If you are interested in learning more about my two video-accompanied courses, Contender: Going Deeper in the Book of Jude andHeaven and Other Destinations: A Biblical Journey Beyond this World , visit courses.andymilleriii.comAnd don't forget about my most recent book, Contender, which is available on Amazon! Five Steps to Deeper Teaching and Preaching - Recently, I updated this PDF document and added a 45-minute teaching video with slides, explaining this tool.
