Slavery is one of the most difficult and often misunderstood topics in the Bible. In this message, we explore the historical and cultural context of slavery in both the Old and New Testaments to uncover what the Bible really says. Did God allow slavery? Does Scripture condone oppression? Or is there a deeper redemptive thread running through the text? Connect with Us | Text Us: (650)600-0402
The Apostles' Creed states: "He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to hell."But did Jesus really descend into hell? Does Scripture teach this? If not, how and why is this in the creed?On this episode we'll evaluate several possible interpretations of this phrase and compare them to God's Word to see if they hold up. Join me as we delve into the historical context and theology behind this belief and explore the important question of how we should respond if we cannot affirm this particular line in the Apostles' Creed.► For additional resources on this topic: https://reasonabletheology.org/did-jesus-descend-into-hell/► Get a FREE Month of Logos Bible SoftwareSupport the showGET THE NEWSLETTEREach edition of the Reasonable Theology newsletter contains my latest article or podcast episode PLUS: A Theological Word or Phrase Explained Quickly and Clearly A Painting Depicting a Scene from Scripture or Church History Audio of a Hymn or other Musical Selection to Enjoy A Recommended Book or Resource to Expand Your Library SUBSCRIBE HERE
Sometimes, Christians pit doctors and divine healing against one another, as if relying on natural remedies reveals a lack of faith. Does Scripture support that assumption?
Predictions of when Christ will return seem to take place every year, but what are the biblical signs of the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ? Does Scripture even allow the opportunity of discerning precisely when He will return again? In this sermon on the timing of Christ's return, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones answers these questions and more, contending that it is useless for Christians to debate the exact date and time of His coming since Jesus promised that only God the Father knew. Dr. Lloyd-Jones takes the listener through a helpful history of these questions that begins with the apostles since many have argued that they expected Jesus to return again in their lifetime. In addition to this view of the apostles, Dr. Lloyd-Jones also gives a brief overview of several other alternate stances on this subject. According to Scripture, Dr. Lloyd-Jones teaches, there are two signs that precede the second coming of Christ—the calling of the Gentiles and the gathering in of the fullness of Israel. He skillfully explains from a biblical standpoint what these mean, providing the listener with clarity that is often missing when studying this topic. This is a helpful sermon for anyone currently confused about how to interpret the biblical prophecies regarding the Lord's second coming.

We all felt the immense pressure to get the COVID vaccine. Many were forced to jab in order to keep their jobs. In some cities, we couldn't eat in restaurants, buy a cup of coffee, or attend a concert unless we showed proof of vaccination.People rolled up their sleeves. Many regret it because they later learned the “vaccine”prevented neither infection nor transmission. And then there's the lingering question: did the spike protein remain in the arm or did it travel throughout the body?One of our listeners fears the spike could continue to negatively impact her health.

At the 2020 IF:Gathering Conference Sadie Robertson Huff was assigned to give a message on Romans 8:39. In the message she urges women to keep themselves from getting distracted by "turning" to observe what God is doing in other people's lives. That, instead, they should be focusing on what God is doing in their lives. Why? Because God is building their testimony, and their testimony has the power to change hearts. Is this true? Do our testimonies have power? Is John 21 informing us that "turning" to ask Jesus what He is doing in other people's lives will cause us to "miss out" on "the reckless love God is chasing us" with?

How do we approach the issue of singing and offering hymns as worship to God that were written by men who were heretics? Do we sing them anyway? Does Scripture even teach on this?

Galatians 6:14 — The cross is a symbolic picture that has universal recognition. But what is the meaning behind the cross and what does it represent? Does Scripture instruct how to view the cross today? In this sermon on Galatians 6:14 titled “Looking at the Cross,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones points to the passage as a way to test (positively or negatively) one's understanding of the cross. Here the apostle Paul points out two aspects of the cross that are important to understand: he glories (boasts) in the cross and he glories in nothing else. The cross is his boast because of what took place on the cross as Christ offered Himself as a sacrifice. In relation to Christ's great demonstration of love, everything else in the world fades in comparison. There is nothing left that is worthy of boasting in. As Dr. Lloyd-Jones draws out the implications for today, he confronts with the question, “Why should I glory in the cross today?” The listener is encouraged to reflect anew on the meaning of the cross, as well as consider the cross and the worthlessness of the world, the deliverance the cross provides from the law, and the beautiful, wondrous character of the cross as the manifestation of God's love and power.

If you've been around the Bible a while you know the stories, you've heard the sermons, you've read the books. But are they still fresh, alive, "living and active" as Hebrews writes? Does Scripture still surprise you?
Some of us are familiar with the practice of anointing our homes and personal items with oil, believing that God will protect and even bless what is touched by the oil. There are even teachings instructing people how to make their own anointing oil and how to pray in their homes as they anoint the doorposts, the walls, furniture, and even family members while rebuking the devil and declaring blessing. Does Scripture instruct us in this matter? Join me as we take a look at a current teaching on anointing your home.

Does Scripture condemn all swearing? Or is there a particular type of corrupt swearing that Jesus specifically had in mind?
Is limited atonement really taught in the Bible? Although we prefer the language of "particular redemption" or "definite atonement" over "limited atonement," we must first to recognize that all Christians "limit" the atonement. We either limit it in its extent or it efficacy. The question really is: Does Scripture teach the atonement is unlimited in its extent and limited in its efficacy (as Arminians argue) or is the atonement limited in its extent and unlimited in its efficacy (as our teaching team argues)? You can watch the message here.

Isaiah 5:25 — Saying “God is love” is not controversial and likely receives nods of affirmation and hearty amens. It is a universal doctrine that receives little backlash. While many elevate the love of God above all other attributes, any mention of discipline or wrath is violently objected and attacked. In this sermon on Isaiah 5:25 titled “The Anger of the Lord,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones invites the listener to question this reaction with a few questions: Is it the sum of God's character to describe Him as loving? Does Scripture attribute love as the highest and greatest attribute of God? Dr. Lloyd-Jones emphatically says no. He urges considering the whole counsel of God's word, not merely picking out what is most appealing. He chastises those within the church who have rejected this doctrine in favor of a more palatable God. To embrace God's love while rejecting His anger and wrath is a dishonest and inconsistent representation of God and the Bible. It also weakens the necessity of the incarnation of Christ and the understanding of the grace, mercy, and love demonstrated by Christ's death on the cross. Dr. Lloyd-Jones presents a strong case for the embrace of God's love and God's wrath in balance as he turns to the revelation of God found in Scripture. Listen as he addresses the essential nature of the doctrine of wrath in this sermon.

On today's podcast episode, Gary Thomas talks to us about how to determine if the difficult people in our lives are toxic people and what to do if we discover they are toxic. Toxic is a cultural buzzword when it comes to relationships, but Gary doesn't allow culture to define this word. Instead, he uses Scripture to explain to us the traits of a toxic person and relationship. He also shows us how Jesus handled difficult and toxic people. It may be surprising to you to learn that Jesus both walked away from people and let people walk away from Him many times in the gospels. And by studying His example we can learn how we should handle the difficult people in our lives.
