Podcasts about eyewitnesses

We weren't there on the mountain, nor did we see the empty tomb. But because of their testimony, we know of His majesty and can be changed, transformed, by it.

Episode Synopsis:The church in Rome was predominately Gentile–made up of recent converts from Greco-Roman paganism to Christianity.  Such Gentiles knew little if anything about the Old Testament, nor its central figures, Abraham, Moses, and David.  They knew that Jewish Christians cared about dietary restrictions, as well as circumcision–a surgical procedure which seemed bizarre to former Gentile pagans.  They knew the Jews revered the law of Moses–which they claimed to be the very commandments from God.  Gentiles ate things Jews did not.  They touched things Jews regarded as unclean.  As new Christians, Gentiles were learning about the evils of idolatry and the importance of rejecting the libertine sexual ethics and practices of Roman life in favor of a biblical sexuality.  But they were also learning about Moses, Abraham, the law, and the covenants God made with Abraham and Moses.  Paul has been clear in the opening chapter of his letter to Rome.  “You Gentiles may not have known who Moses was, nor why the commandments God gave to Israel through him at Mount Sinai were so important, but you do know what is right and what is wrong because God has made it plain to you through the created order, which, until coming to faith in Jesus, you tried to suppress in unrighteousness.  You may claim ignorance, but you knew deep down inside that the things you were doing lead to death."  But Paul is not finished.  Even as he exposes Gentile godlessness and the futility of exchanging the truth of God for pagan nonsense, you can almost hear the Jewish Christians in Rome cheering Paul on.  Eyewitnesses of bad Gentile behavior and victims of Gentile oppression, Jewish converts, of course, were thrilled to hear Paul “give it to them good.”  “About time someone called out the Gentiles for their sinful and immoral practices.”But as the second chapter of Romans unfolds, Paul shifts gears and raises the uncomfortable reality of Jewish hypocrisy.  “OK, you Jews who criticize the Gentiles, do you do the same things they do?”  “How can you judge the Gentiles when you are no better.”  The truth is, God is going to judge all people according to their works–Jew and Gentile.  The blessing/curse principle will apply to all humanity.  Those who do good will receive God's blessing, while those who do not keep God's commands will face him on the day of judgment.  Yes, Paul has good news to proclaim, but there can be no good news until we realize that we are sinful, law-breakers, and deserving of God's wrath whether we be Jew or Gentile.For show notes and other recommended materials located at the Riddleblog as mentioned during the Blessed Hope Podcast, click here:  https://www.kimriddlebarger.com/

Today Joe pulls back the curtain on an election system that keeps handing Americans excuses instead of answers. Eyewitnesses out of Shasta County reveal poll workers describing counterfeit ballots slipped into California's primary count, while another courageous county clerk begs Washington for basic help keeping noncitizens off her voter rolls — only to reveal the Secretary of State's own office is registering illegal immigrants the moment they update an address. Joe contrasts that rot with a CNN graphic even the network can't spin away: overwhelming majorities of Black, white, and Latino voters all want photo ID at the polls. Then James O'Keefe joins the fight, calling out Senator Lisa Murkowski for threatening to prosecute him over voter fraud while she personally torpedoes the SAVE Act — the legislation that would actually stop it. It's a masterclass in who's protecting the vote and who's protecting the fraud.From there, Joe welcomes America First organizer and Colorado GOP delegate James McAndrew — a man who was on the ground at the Ellipse on January 6th and has spent every day since fighting for election integrity from the inside. McAndrew breaks down what's really happening in Colorado politics, and Joe drops the truth, nine — soon revealed as ten — Democrat-held State House seats where not a single Republican even bothered to file. It's an uncontested one-party rule, playing out in real time, next door to a Denver street scene of addicts getting high in broad daylight — the predictable output of the same failed leadership. The conversation turns to a wrongly deported immigrant's CBS interview, a fresh 6-3 Supreme Court win clearing the path for Trump's mail-ballot executive order, and — because nothing is off-limits — the President's plan to rename Lake Ontario "Lake America."The back half of the show is a gut-check on what "sanctuary" really means. California just codified the "Stop Nick Shirley Act" into law, New York Governor Kathy Hochul is celebrating a statute that bans police from cooperating with ICE while accusing federal agents of "atrocities," and Minnesota is now issuing public safety warnings about Somali gang violence at the State Fair. Add in the Girl Scouts' new Islam-themed merit badges and a Clinton-appointed federal judge striking down Ohio's citizenship-verification voter law weeks before the midterms, and the pattern is impossible to ignore: institutions built to protect citizens are being repurposed to protect everyone but them. Tune in as Joe connects every thread — because if you're not watching closely, you won't see it coming until it's already at your door.

Unified and Purified: We Live in Grace Jeff Miller Download Audio Transcript 00:041 Corinthians chapter 15. My wife Erin was talking to a good friend of hers, Sharon. And Sharon told her this story that I've been thinking about all week. She said she took a bunch of youth to this youth conference. And they asked everybody to stand up. We're not going to do this here today. But she asked everybody to stand up.00:34I asked everybody to stand up and asked who had been saved for a year. And did they know at least one Bible verse? And if not, sit down. Right? And then who'd been saved for two years? You know two Bible verses. If not, you can sit down. And it went up. Who's been saved five years? Do you know five Bible verses? If not, sit down. And by the time the exercise was done, nobody was standing.01:04And I keep thinking about that. It's not a matter of learning Bible verses to be like ready for Bible bowl or just in case you're on Jeopardy and New Testament is one of the categories. That's not the purpose of learning the Word of God. What is the purpose of learning the Word of God?01:35What you really believe shapes how you live. That's just a reality. You live according to what you really believe is true. We just finished a section of 1 Corinthians with Q&A. And I think it's where this Bible knowledge intersects with the biggest question.02:04we really discover the biblical ignorance of a lot of people in church. And the biggest question is, what happens after we die? You know, thinking about all of those matters, you know, our death and rapture and return of Jesus and resurrection and heaven and hell, and what about all of that? Look, I've been doing this a long time, and I've been part, of so many funerals.02:40And it's always astounding to me, at a funeral, even people that say they've been following Christ for many, many years, it's astounding to me some of the crazy unbiblical things people say.02:56For example, I've heard this many times at a funeral.03:00They're like, well, you know what? God just needed another angel. And I'm like, there is so much wrong with that statement. First of all, God needs nothing, right? Second of all, we don't turn into angels when we die. Where did you get that concept? It's biblical ignorance. That's not really the place. That's not really the place to correct people, right? You don't want a shot block there. I guess that would help to have Miles there with me, I guess, at a funeral.03:30next time that happens.03:32Like, God needs another angel.03:33Miles would just be like, you don't turn into an angel when you die.03:38If you know, you know.03:43Another crazy thing I've heard people say is, well, you know, grandma's just watching over me.03:52You know, little Joey was supposed to have a t-ball game and they were calling for tornadoes and thunderstorms and hail and blizzards and all that.03:59And it didn't.04:00We had perfect weather. Thank you, Grandma. Grandma was watching over me. Well, your Grandma might have been wonderful, but she's not God. Okay? But that's one of the crazy things people believe is our departed loved ones are orchestrating things. You know, another crazy thing, and this might be the craziest, is regarding what happens when we die afterwards, all of these matters. Some people say, well, nobody really knows.04:30That could be the craziest thing because God wrote it all down for us. And when I talk about our Bible ignorance, I hope you don't take that as a guilt trip as much as over the next few weeks we are looking at a chapter in the Bible that answers so many of the questions that so many Christians get wrong.05:00I encourage you to tune in and take notes and look very closely at what God has said. So with that said, let's just bow our heads for a second. I'm going to ask that you would please pray for me to be faithful, to clearly and accurately communicate the word of God. And I will pray for you to have your heart open to receive what it is that God said. All right. Let's just take a moment and pray.05:30before you today with Thanksgiving. I thank you for your word that clears up all of these questions that we wouldn't have answers to otherwise. I thank you for the noise of the children in this room right now. It's a sign of life. And I thank you for parents that want to come and worship you and hear your word and will bring their kids. I thank you for that. Father, I just pray that you eliminate any distractions in our hearts and minds so that we can laser focus on what it is you've said in your word today.06:00This is the most important message there is. And what a tragedy it would be to leave here and have missed it. What it is you've said here in this absolutely awe-inspiring portion of your word. God, we thank you. And we pray in Jesus' name. And all of God's people said, okay, some of God's people said it. The rest weren't ready.06:30We'll try again next week. Come back to Second Service. You can try then too. Okay, so what happens when we die? Well, among many other things the Bible teaches, the Bible is crystal clear on this. You will resurrect from the dead. You will. Everybody, not just believers actually, Everybody rises from the dead. The Bible says unbelievers get an eternal body that's suited for hell and judgment. And believers in Jesus Christ get an eternal body that they will use in glory in heaven forever. Right? Daniel chapter 12 verse 2. Old Testament talks about this. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake. Some to everlasting life. And some to shame and everlasting contempt. Jesus taught this, John chapter 5. Those who have done good to the resurrection of life and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment. There are two resurrections, one for believers, one for non-believers, an eternal body that will live forever somewhere. And 1 Corinthians chapter 15 is all about resurrection.08:00The first stretch is, appropriately, about the resurrection of Jesus Christ. And then the back nine of 1 Corinthians 15 is about our resurrection. Look at chapter 15, verse 1. Paul says, Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand.08:31You see, we just spent a lot of time, 1 Corinthians 11, 12, 13, 14, they had all these corporate worship problems. And Paul's like, okay guys, we cleared up some of the details, but the most important thing is getting back to the basics of the gospel itself. And he's talking about resurrection in this chapter. As we said, it is not resurrection.09:00Resurrection is not a part of what we believe. Resurrection is the heart of the gospel. It is the core. It is the very, it's essential to being a Christian. It is absolutely a necessary doctrine that we got to embrace. Look at what Romans chapter 10 says. Because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that what? God raised him from the dead. You will be saved. Do you see how a belief in resurrection is directly tied to your salvation? It's non-negotiable. But of course, there's always skeptics, right? You can study the ancient Greeks. Many of the Greeks who lived in Corinth, they didn't believe in a bodily resurrection at all.10:04And even Christians today, they're just not entirely sure what happens.10:14You know, I know there's, okay, so we die, but we're with Jesus, but there is a, okay, so resurrection happens somewhere, but somewhere there's a rapture, and then like Armageddon, and...10:29Well, all of this is clearly taught in 1 Corinthians 15. So he starts with a foundation, Jesus Christ rose from the dead. That's the most important thing we have to embrace, right? So on your outline, three evidences of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The first evidence is the church. The first evidence that Jesus rose from the dead, And just in case you're skeptical, you're like, I'm not really sure I believe that Jesus actually rose from the dead. Okay. Well, here's the first evidence of church. Look at chapter 15 again. Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel that I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved if you hold fast to the word I preached to you, unless you believed in vain.11:28The church, he's talking to brothers and sisters here, believers. Notice he says, this message, you received it, you hold fast to it, and you stand in it. Notice here that a real Christian, a real follower of Christ is someone who not only receives the gospel, but also stands in the gospel. Meaning this, a real Christian, a real Born Again, Disciple of Jesus is someone who builds their very life on the gospel. They stand in it. That's so important, church. I think it's a plague in the American church that when we say, what is faith? Faith is just agreeing to a doctrinal statement, right? Faith is just, yeah, yeah, okay, all right, I'm on board with that. Yep, yep, sure, yeah. I don't disagree with any of that. I don't argue with any of that. And they think that's where faith ends.12:26But faith isn't just some intellectual agreement. Faith is, I build my life on this. I lead my family according to what God said. I serve in the church because of what God said. I raise my kids because of what God said. I handle money and stuff because of what God said. Every aspect of my life is built on the truth of God's word. That's what biblical faith is.12:56So Paul says the first proof that we have of the resurrection is that Jesus Christ is alive and he's transforming people in the church. So I am going to ask you to raise your hand if you're sitting here today and you can honestly say the resurrection of Jesus Christ, The Gospel of Jesus Christ transformed me and changed the way that I live. Raise your hand if that's true of you. Okay, so skeptics in the room, look around. You want evidence of the resurrection? Here it is. Here are people that say Jesus Christ is alive and he's changing me. There's your first proof. Right? Oh, there's more. Number two. Scripture. This is the second proof he lists, but it's actually biblically the Most Important. Look at verses 3 and 4. He says, For I delivered to you as of first importance, which I also received, that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, and that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.14:26Okay, stop there. Do you see that phrase? In accordance with the Scriptures. Paul says, here's our second proof that Jesus rose. Because the Scriptures say that He would. You're like, what Scriptures? Well, keep in mind, when He wrote this, the New Testament was being written. This is one of the earliest books, actually. So when He was referring to the Scriptures, He was talking about what we call the Old Testament. The Jewish Scriptures. The Law and the Proverbs.14:54So what is it in the Old Testament that specifically talks about resurrection? Well, there's a few, but here's a couple of them for sure. Isaiah 53, talking about the Messiah. It says, yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him. He has put him to grief when his soul makes an offering for guilt. Stop there. That's the crucifixion, right? On the cross, God the Father was crushing Jesus.15:24pouring his wrath on Jesus because Jesus was an offering for guilt. That's the crucifixion. Next is the resurrection, right? He shall see his offspring. The only way that's going to happen is if he raises from the dead, right? He shall prolong his days. How's that happen? Resurrection, the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. Another big scripture in the Old Testament talking about resurrection is Psalm 1610. This is big because chapter 2, when Peter was preaching at Pentecost, this was the scripture that he was preaching from. For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol, that's the grave, or let your Holy One see corruption. The promises the Messiah, literally here, will not rot. God, you're not going to leave your Messiah to rot in the grave. That's resurrection, right? So God, in His Word, promised the Messiah would die.16:24and resurrect long before it actually happened. That's why Paul here says in verse 3, this is first importance. This is first importance. And look, we can quibble about doctrine. I really don't want to, but people do. But here's some things that there's no arguing this. These are non-negotiable truths. The most important things you must believe, he lists them right here, that Jesus died, was buried, and was raised. You're like, wait, wait, wait. Why do I have to believe that Jesus was buried? Like, that seems like a weird thing that I have to believe. Well, the point is, he was actually dead. Because there's some people that think that he looked dead. He was beat with an inch of his life, but he didn't actually die. No, believing he's buried is saying, I believe that Jesus literally in the flesh was dead. And that he rose.17:24from the dead.17:27But look at the phrase again, verse 3, right there in the middle.17:32Christ died, look at this phrase.17:36For our sins.17:41Excuse me.17:42For our sins.17:44Why did Christ die?17:46For our sins.17:50Jesus did not die to make you healthy and wealthy like some prosperity preachers teach.17:54Jesus did not die as a victim of circumstances. As I've heard people say, oh, they got poor Jesus. Jesus didn't even just simply die as a martyr that stood up for a cause. And no, no, no, no, no. It's so much deeper than that. Jesus died for our sins. What does that mean? That means we are by birth and by nature rebellious towards God and His ways. Every one of us. We stand guilty and condemned before a holy God and we have no excuse. We have no means to make it up to God by good works. So Jesus, on the cross, gave His life. Why? For your sins. He experienced the wrath of God for your sins so you wouldn't have to.18:53So the guilt of your sin would be taken away. And Jesus was raised. To defeat death. How do we know? How do we know Jesus died? How do we know he was buried? How do we know he was raised? How do we know what all of that means? And what Paul says here, it's in accordance with the scriptures. This is the promise of God. All right, so the first witness, we got people right here that say Jesus Christ transformed you.19:23His resurrection changes the way you live. And then we have the proof of God's word, but there's other proof too, right? Look at verses 5 through 8. These are eyewitnesses. He says, and that He appeared to Cephas, that's Peter, then to the twelve. Then He appeared to more than 500 brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.19:55He's like, you can fact check me on that if you want.19:59Because a bunch of these people are still alive.20:02He says, then He appeared to James.20:05That's Jesus' half-brother.20:09Mary and Joseph had children after Jesus.20:12Jesus was born of the Holy Spirit, but the Bible says Mary and Joseph had other kids.20:16They're listed by name.20:19James was one of them, early leader in the church.20:21All right?20:22Then he appeared to James. Then to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me. So this isn't an exhaustive list, okay? There's more people we see even in Scripture that saw the resurrected Christ, but Paul gives us, this is more than enough, right? We've got Peter, the disciples, more than 500. We've got James, Jesus' half-brother, all the apostles.20:51Paul says, then to me.20:57And that's pretty significant. Why?20:59Because some would say, well, you know all these people that say Jesus rose from the dead, they were all big fans of Jesus, and they all loved Jesus, and they all wanted to follow Jesus, and they were all so sad when he died, so they made it up.21:12They so badly wanted Jesus to be the Messiah that they just made it up.21:17They made up the resurrection.21:19Well, there's a big problem with that theory. And the big problem with that theory is Paul. Paul wasn't a believer. He didn't even want to believe to the point that he was persecuting the church. He had zero motivation to make it up. So did Jesus resurrect? Well, Paul says, we have way too many people affirming it.21:49to ever deny it. You know, almost as amazing as the resurrection is the means by which eternal life is granted. Look at verse 9. Paul says, Christ appeared to him in verse 8. He says, For I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle because I persecuted the church of God. Paul's like, I'm so unworthy of anything from God because I persecuted the church.22:49Insert your favorite sin or the sin that defined you into this and say something like, you know, I'm unworthy of God because I've lived my life by lust. Or I'm unworthy of God because I've lived my life just full of bitterness and hatred and unforgiveness. That's just the person I was.23:19of God. Anything from God. You could say, I'm unworthy because I've just been a liar. I just lie.23:34My whole life has been about deceiving people.23:38Maybe somebody else would say, I'm unworthy of God because you know my whole life, it's just all been about me.23:46I just live a self-centered life. Whatever makes me happy, that's all I I care about. And I never cared about anyone else or anything else. And that's who I was. And God should have given me his wrath. But instead, he gave me his grace. Look at verse 10.24:18Verse 10, he says, but by the grace of God, I am what I am. Let's talk about grace. You could go to a theology book and what is grace? Grace is unmerited favor. You don't deserve it. God has chosen to give you His blessing, but we've done not a thing to deserve anything from God. That's grace. The best definition I've ever heard of grace is this. Grace is God giving to you what He requires from you. You know what God requires from you? Perfection, holiness, righteousness. That's what God requires from you. You don't got it. I don't got it.25:18Grace is God giving to us the very thing that he requires from us. That's my favorite definition. And some of you know my favorite illustration of grace. When I try to think of what's the difference between like some of these biblical terms, this little story, I think of this often. It helps me. But just imagine you have a teenage son. Some of you do. Some of you did. Some of you will.25:48Teenage son. He's 16 and he goes to this party. But there's another teenage boy there. He just hates your son. No reason. Just hates him. And this other boy was waiting for your son to show up and he just kills him. Cold-blooded. Just kills your son. You see, if you track that boy down that killed your son, you track him down You kill him. That's called vengeance. But if you cooperate with the police and help find this kid who murdered your son and you get him arrested and through the legal system, that's called justice. But if this kid is in the legal system, you show up to court and somehow, somehow you convince the court.26:48to not punish the boy who murdered your son. Just let him go free. Don't punish him. That's called mercy. But if you go to the court and you convince them, not only don't punish the boy who murdered my son, not only let him free, but I want to raise him as my own son and love him and care for him.27:18I want to adopt him. That is grace. And I love that story because it's so accurate. We murdered God's son so that God could adopt us. He allowed, he ordained all of that to happen with Jesus Christ so that he could.27:50Adopt us. That's grace. But you know, we have a hard time with grace, don't we? We have a hard time because there's something in us that says, look, I have to do something to be right with God. I mean, I'm not buying for a second that I can be saved.28:18Just based on what God has done, and that I don't contribute some kind of work to it. But the Bible's clear, you can't earn it. You can't work for it. And you can't be good enough to get it. Because if you could, if there was some way that you could earn God's favor, then you have to explain why Jesus died on that cross.28:53It's grace. Like, well, is there something I have to do? Yeah, actually, there is one thing you have to do. It's the same thing you have to do with any gift that is being offered to you. You have to receive it.29:18The Bible says grace is a gift. So the question is, did you receive that gift? Did you receive that gift? Well, rest of your outline. Here's three evidences you've received God's grace. See, that's the real question. We can look.29:48at the word of God. And we can look at the testimony of others. But the question is, what about me? Have I actually received the grace of God? Or have I just been a church attender, a seat warmer, a pew sitter? Is that me? Or have I actually received God's grace? Well, the evidences to the resurrection that we just looked at, those were all, external, subjective, subjective, subjective, things, right? But when we're asking, have you received the grace of God? Have you received this gift? This is an internal thing. This is very subjective. Only you really can answer these questions. Have you received God's grace? Have you? Well, here's three evidences. The first one.30:50Letter A, you don't think you're worthy. Look at verse 9 again with me, please. He says, for I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle because I persecuted the church of God. Unworthy. Listen, you have to recognize that you're unworthy.31:20We've talked about this before. We have people get upset with us here at the church. We have people leave the church because we just want the sermons to be a little more uplifting. We just want... Can't you make us feel good? Listen, you have to recognize that you're unworthy because if you think that you're worthy, if you think you're worthy of something from God, then it's not grace.31:48If you think you're worthy of something from God, you get this idea in your head that God owes you something. And he doesn't. You see, Paul, Paul, of all people, Paul could have said, I see why God picked me. I mean, come on. Do you know how much scripture I know? Do you know the connections I have? I got a triple A membership.32:17I can see why God picked me. I have so much to offer the Almighty. Is that what he said? No. He goes, I am so unworthy. And that's the point that people miss. I say, well, you know, I'm a good person and I do good things.32:47God should let me into heaven. The problem with that is, yeah, you might be a good person and you might do good things, but you're still guilty of sin. And you're like a criminal in court saying, yes, your honor, I know I'm guilty, but from now on, I'm going to try to do better. And no judge is going to let the guy walk out. Because despite this criminal's best intentions, or despite this criminal maybe having a track record, of doing some good things with his life in the past. The reality is, he's still guilty. And you have to take an honest assessment and humble yourself before God. Like, look, I'm not worthy of God's grace. I'm not. Here's a beautiful thing, though. God's grace, though it says nothing about me, it says everything about him.33:47But this is true of everyone who has actually received God's grace. They're like, I know I'm not worthy. I'm not. God has been so good to me. And he has done everything for me. And he has saved me. And he has provided for me. And I don't deserve a thing. That's true of people who have received God's grace. Letter B, you define yourself by grace.34:17Evidence that you receive God's grace because you define yourself by that grace. Verse 10 again. He says, but by the grace of God, I am what I am. And His grace toward me was not in vain. When you truly receive God's grace, you're defined by it. But you're like Paul, by God's grace, I am what I am.34:48I'm a child of God. How so? By His grace. I'm forgiven of all my sin. How can that be? God's grace. I am promised eternal life and glory. Like, how do you know? It's just God's grace. It's not me, it's Him. See, somebody could come along when you're like, you know, I'm, look, I'm, I'm a child of God. I am forgiven. And I am heaven bound. Somebody could come along and say, how can that be? You're trash. Like, yeah, I am trash. That's who I was. But you see, God's grace says, that's not what I am anymore. This is who I am now. Many years ago, we did a weekly Bible study.35:47in Butler County Prison. And occasionally there would be one little problem with that in that I grew up in Shakura. So occasionally at Butler County Prison, I would run into people that I went to high school with. Either working as a guard or wearing straight pajamas or whatever. But I would go in and they'd be like, hey, Jeff, what are you up to? And I'm like, well, you know, I came in here for Bible study. They're like, you're, They knew me from high school. I was not a good person. Okay? And they're like, so what are you doing now? And I'm like, I'm a pastor. And they're like, what? Like, you're a pastor. And they laugh. I have people like laughing in my face. Like, you're a pastor. Like, how can that be? They knew. They knew who I was. They knew some of the things that I did. They're like, how can that be that you're a pastor?36:47You know what my response is? It's by God's grace that I am what I am. How about you? Have you been known for doing things that you aren't very proud of? And somebody could rightly come along and get in your face and say, how could someone like you think you're going to serve God? How could someone like you think you're going to end up in heaven someday?37:19And you're like, it's God's grace.37:23It's not me.37:25It's God's grace.37:30See, this is a beautiful thing.37:33Church, grace redefines you.37:39Grace redefines you.37:40You're not living in the past.37:43You're not living in shame.37:48You're not oblivious. Okay, yeah, yeah. Okay, that's who I was. But that's not who God says I am now. God is constantly growing me and changing me and conforming me into the image of His Son. God says I am a child of His. That's who I am. Like, what gives you the right to say that? It's grace.38:16It's grace. My friend, something is going to define you. And it's either going to be your mistakes, or it's going to be God's grace. That though you didn't earn anything, you can humbly accept everything that He gives you.38:46It's grace. How do you know you got it? Well, you don't think you're worthy. You let grace define you. And the third thing we see in the text, letter C, you are motivated to work by grace. You are motivated to work by grace. Paul says his grace toward me was not in vain. Pick up from there. He says, On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me. Whether then it was I or they, so we preach, and so you believed. I love that. Paul says, look, okay, God gave me this gift, and God didn't waste His gift on me because I put it to use.39:44I put God's gift to use, but it wasn't really me that put the gift to use. It was sort of his grace working in me and through me. And you're like, how does that all work? Even Paul didn't know, right? If Paul didn't figure it out, what makes you think I'm going to figure it out? He's like, I work, but it's God that's working. But like all the above?40:16And see, here's the point. You don't need to figure out how all that works. Just get to work. Serve God out of love and appreciation in His power, meaning just do what He's called and equipped you to do. Just do it with everything you got. The bottom line here is this. The evidence that you receive God's grace is when you're motivated and empowered to serve Him.40:43We don't serve God out of obligation. I was saved in 1995. I didn't get into ministry to be like, okay, God, you did me a solid. Now I'm going to do you a solid. That's not it at all. We don't serve out of obligation. We don't serve begrudgingly. Okay, fine. No one else will do it. I'll do it. And we certainly don't do it, right, Pastor Taylor?41:13We don't do a complaining. What you mean? God's recruited you for his team and you're going to bellyache about that? The one that received grace will not do that. I'm just thankful to be called on the team. Let's get to work. That's what grace says. Motivated and empowered to serve him. The person who received grace says God gave me his grace and that.41:43That is what puts the fire in my belly to do everything he's called me to do with everything that I've got. And then I discover that it's the same grace that motivated me to serve. That's the same grace that empowers me to serve. How do I know I've received God's grace? Because I'm motivated to work by grace. Small Group DiscussionRead 1 Corinthians 15:1-11What was your big take-away from this passage / message?Define “grace”. How would you explain grace to a child?

Guest host Misty Winston, joined by The Daily Ruckus host Adam Clark, discusses a significant alibi claim in the Charlie Kirk assassination case, where employees at Cowboys Smokehouse in Panguitch, Utah, say Tyler Robinson was at their restaurant around 9–10 PM on the night of the shooting—over three hours away from the crime scene. The hosts highlight the troubling fact that neither the prosecution nor Robinson's own defense team has contacted the restaurant or its staff to verify this information, despite multiple eyewitnesses, credit card receipts, and positive IDs.  The two argue that this failure to investigate a potential alibi constitutes negligence or even malpractice, as it could establish reasonable doubt about Robinson's presence at the scene. They conclude that the defense's inaction raises serious questions about whether Robinson is receiving adequate representation or if there are deeper compromises at play. Plus segments on the unbelievable bloodlust of the late Lindsay Graham and Trump's desperate attempts to justify ongoing war with Iran. Also featuring Kyle Anzalone!

Tamboli’s Pizza and Pasta is a popular restaurant in Memphis, Tennessee. The other day four young National Guard troops showed up hoping to get a slice or two. Instead, they were shown the door. The staff at Tamboli’s ordered the troops to leave. Eyewitnesses report that other diners cheered as the young men were publicly shamed and kicked out of the restaurant. The owner posted a message on social media explaining that he does not allow National Guard troops to eat his food. Tamboli’s says they do not support the Memphis Safe Task Force or President Trump’s efforts to stop violent crime in the nation’s most dangerous city. I’ve posted the phone number of the restaurant on my website – if you’d like to reach out personally – ToddStarnes.com. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Thai officials are investigating an explosive fire which tore through a bar in the capital Bangkok, killing at least 27 people. Dozens more were injured, many critically. Eyewitnesses say the fire started near the stage and spread across the ceiling, filling the room with smoke. Also: the US and Iran carry out more tit-for-tat attacks, amid conflicting claims over whether the Strait of Hormuz is open or not; an investigation into the Chinese man accused of being Mexico's "Fentanyl King"; the US Republican senator Lindsey Graham - who turned from being a critic of Donald Trump to one of his key allies - dies suddenly at the age of 71; we hear from the grandaughter of the last woman to be executed in Britain as she is granted a conditional pardon; and a T.rex fossil could become the most expensive ever.The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November 28, 2021Weird Darkness host Darren Marlar moves from the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas to a phantom black dog in the English county of Dorset, the murder and dismemberment of a retired sea captain on a quiet island in Washington's San Juan archipelago, and the 1901 killing of a young woman in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, whose spirit is said to still walk her family home.It opens in Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963, where President John F. Kennedy was shot and the Warren Commission, headed by Judge Earl Warren, concluded in 1964 that ex-Marine Lee Harvey Oswald fired three shots alone from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository. Eyewitnesses undercut that account from the start: Arnold Rowland saw two men at the window minutes earlier, one holding a rifle and neither matching Oswald, while secretaries Victoria Adams and Sandra Styles and caretaker Jack Dougherty never saw Oswald flee down the only staircase he could have used. The episode dismantles Arlen Specter's single-bullet theory — the claim that Commission Exhibit 399 passed through Kennedy's neck and inflicted five separate wounds on Governor John Connally before turning up nearly pristine on a Parkland Hospital stretcher — a conclusion Connally and his wife Nellie both rejected and Abraham Zapruder's home film contradicts on timing. Oswald's negative paraffin test, his suspicious 1959 defection to the Soviet Union and fluent Russian, his leafleting against the Fair Play for Cuba Committee alongside FBI-linked investigator Guy Banister, and a Mexico City impersonation so plain that J. Edgar Hoover told President Lyndon Johnson the recorded voice and surveillance photograph did not match the man in custody all steer the evidence away from a lone gunman. The thread ends with Dallas nightclub owner Jack Ruby, whose out-of-state mob contacts spiked twenty-fivefold before he shot Oswald on live television and whose 1965 hint that the truth would never surface still shadows the Mannlicher-Carcano rifle that remains the strongest piece against the accused.From there the tone turns to folklore and a listener's firsthand sighting of Black Shuck, the spectral black dog reported for centuries across Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, and East Anglia and long treated as an omen of coming disaster. Camping alone beside a medieval moat near Raoul Castle in East Dorset, he watched the dark shape of a large dog settle on the far embankment and stare back at him, then rise and dissolve into nothing as every nearby sound of wildlife cut out, leaving him zipped inside his tent until morning.Next comes the disappearance of Rolf Neslund, an 83-year-old retired sea captain who in 1978 drove a 550-foot freighter into the West Seattle Bridge before retreating into a drink-soaked marriage on Lopez Island in Washington's San Juan Islands. When Rolf vanished in August 1980, his wife Ruth insisted he had flown home to Norway, yet his prescriptions went unfilled, his American and Norwegian bank accounts went untouched, and no Christmas card reached his relatives that December. In 1982 Ruth's brother told police she had confessed that on August 8, 1980, a second brother held Rolf down while she shot him twice in the head, after which the body was dismembered in the bathtub, burned in a backyard barrel, and scattered on the manure pile. A search turned up replaced carpet over bloodstains, spatter on the ceiling, and a bloodstained .38-caliber Smith & Wesson hidden in Ruth's dresser, tying her to a killing that began as a fight over the roughly $80,000 she had quietly moved into an account bearing only her name; convicted in 1985 and sentenced to twenty years, she maintained her innocence until her death at seventy-three.The episode closes with nineteen-year-old Nell Cropsey, who walked onto the front porch of her family's Elizabeth City, North Carolina home with her suitor Jim Wilcox on the night of November 20, 1901, and was never seen alive again. Her body surfaced in the Pasquotank River on December 27, her death caused by a violent blow to the left temple, and Wilcox — the son of the local sheriff, known for a fierce temper — was convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to thirty years before Governor Thomas Walter Bickett pardoned him in 1918. Once freed, Wilcox sought out newspaper editor W.O. Saunders to reveal something so startling that Saunders began planning a book, but Wilcox killed himself with a shotgun before he could tell it, Saunders died soon afterward in a car wreck, and whatever he knew went with them. More than a century on, the former Cropsey home still answers with lights that switch on and off, doors that open by themselves, faucets that run with no hand on the tap, and a pale young woman glimpsed crossing empty rooms and gazing from an upstairs window — recognized by more than one resident as Nell, her killing never truly solved.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!Is spontaneous human combustion just a bizarre, unexplained freak of science—or is there something darker at play? For centuries, reports have surfaced of people mysteriously bursting into flames with no apparent ignition source. No candles. No gasoline. Just scorched remains, a burned chair, and rooms otherwise untouched by fire. These true stories have puzzled experts and terrified the public. But what if the answer isn't found in chemistry... but in the paranormal?We dive deep into the eerie possibility that poltergeists or malevolent spirits could be the true cause behind some of the most shocking cases of spontaneous human combustion ever recorded. Could the same unseen forces known for knocking over furniture, scratching walls, and tormenting the living actually have the power to ignite a human being from the inside out?We explore haunting theories: Are these fiery deaths the result of intense psychic energy? A form of spiritual punishment? Or are we witnessing a terrifying consequence of crossing into a realm we were never meant to enter? Eyewitnesses, researchers, and survivors of nearby encounters paint a picture that's as disturbing as it is mysterious.

#DVSM #GaryHodges #IndieComics #GraphicNovel #SciFiHorror #HorrorComics #SciFiComics #FoundFootageHorror #DocumentaryStyle #Worldbuilding #ComicCreator #IndieCreator #GraphicNovelSeries #ComicsInterview #Storycomic On this episode, I'm joined by indie comic creator Gary Hodges, who's been making comics for about 8 years and is building a seriously cool graphic novel series called DvsM. DvsM is a character-focused sci-fi/horror story told through eyewitness accounts of a highly classified war that supposedly took place from the 1970s into the early 2000s. Each installment shows the conflict from a different vantage point — a soldier, a scientist, a “man in black,” and more — so the series reads like an in-world documentary. Gary describes it as “if Ken Burns did a documentary on War of the Worlds,” and once you hear him explain the structure, you'll get why that's the perfect comparison. We talk about building tension through testimony, how you keep a big secret-war mythology coherent across multiple perspectives, and what it takes to keep an indie series moving over years — from story planning to art decisions to connecting with readers. If you like sci-fi horror, faux-documentary storytelling, and indie comics with real ambition, you're going to have fun with this one.

[2 Pet 1:15-18] The Apostle Peter, knowing his death was near and the Lord's Parousia was coming, urgently reminds the Church of what he personally witnessed on the Mount of Transfiguration: the majestic glory of the beloved Son, visibly approved by the Father. This is not another cleverly devised myth or religious fable; Christianity rests on historically verified, eyewitness testimony of divine power and heavenly majesty. Under the New Covenant, we do not follow a departed teacher or a fabricated story—we follow the risen, glorious Christ whose transfiguration foreshadows His second coming in power, calling us to steadfast faith in the only true and majestic Savior.

Of all the creatures that haunt the world of the paranormal, shadow people are one the most frightening. Eyewitnesses describe them as grotesque, human-like figures that are so dark they look blacker than black, and they often exude a feeling of evil or dread. What are these menacing creatures, and what do they want from us? Join me as I share first hand accounts of shadow people sightings, and delve into the mystery of these terrifying, dark beings.

How Did We Get The Bible | If you've ever wondered where the Bible came from—or whether Christianity really depends on “because the Bible says so”—this message helps you start in the right place: with Jesus.In this episode of Discovering Jesus, we explore the question behind so many doubts: How did we get the Bible, and can it really be trusted?The answer begins with an event, not a book.Before there was a Bible, there was the resurrection of Jesus. That moment launched a movement that changed history. Eyewitnesses wrote down what they saw, Luke carefully investigated their accounts, and centuries later those trusted first-century documents were compiled into the Bible we have today.This message will help you see:How the resurrection led to the church and eventually the BibleWhy Luke's Gospel is a carefully investigated historical accountWhy Christianity rises and falls on Jesus, not blind faith in a bookHow doubts can lead you deeper instead of pushing you awayWhy faith is discoverable, examinable, and investigableWhat it means to start your search for truth with JesusIf shallow answers have left you frustrated, this message gives you a better place to begin. Your faith doesn't have to rest on “just believe harder.” It can begin with evidence, history, eyewitnesses, and the person of Jesus.So if you've ever asked How Did We Get The Bible, this conversation will help you understand why the Bible exists in the first place—and why Jesus is the reason we have it.

What if Brazil had its very own Roswell? In this deep-dive, we're taking on the Varginha Incident—the legendary 1996 UFO case that shook Brazil and the world with claims of extraterrestrial life, government cover-ups, and terrifying creature sightings. Eyewitnesses reported strange beings with red eyes, oily skin, and inhuman movements roaming the streets of Varginha, a small city in Minas Gerais. Soldiers and police were allegedly dispatched, strange craft were spotted in the skies, and the aftermath left many asking: was this a true alien encounter, or a case of mass hysteria mixed with military secrecy? In true Roanoke Gaming fashion, this video goes beyond surface-level storytelling. We'll break down the biology of the alleged creatures, exploring what adaptations could explain their alien physiology—from their reported sulfuric odor, to their crouched posture, to their shining eyes that seemed almost adapted to low-light environments. Could these beings have been extraterrestrial organisms surviving in Earth's atmosphere, or something else entirely? We'll connect these accounts with known science, speculative xenobiology, and even comparisons to famous depictions in film and animation, from The X-Files to District 9 to Neon Genesis Evangelion. But the lore doesn't stop there. The Varginha case spawned decades of conspiracy theories, whispers of military autopsies, hidden bodies, and government denials eerily similar to Roswell. We'll discuss the mythology surrounding UFO encounters in Latin America, how cultural beliefs shaped the story, and why the case continues to inspire documentaries, books, and animated adaptations to this day. Was this an actual alien visitation, a top-secret military mishap, or something stranger—an intersection of science, culture, and human imagination? Expect speculation, discussion, and connected ideas that link Varginha to broader UFO lore, alien abduction cases, and cryptid-like encounters across the globe. Whether you're into film analysis, speculative biology, or mysterious real-world events, this video brings it all together in a way only Roanoke Gaming can—combining science, lore, and storytelling into one captivating exploration. Join me as we piece together witness reports, official denials, and biological speculation to answer one question: did something truly otherworldly land in Brazil in 1996, or is this just another chapter in humanity's obsession with the unknown?

Easter Series 2026: Eyewitnesses of Jesus Part 3: Peter Peter's story is not just about failure…it's about what Jesus does after the failure. Peter didn't drift away slowly, he denied Jesus directly. Face to face with pressure, he said: “I do not know that man.” Three times. And when it was over, Scripture says he went out and wept bitterly. This is the weight of sin, not just what he did, but the realization of it. And that's where grace came looking for him. After the resurrection, the angel says: “Go tell His disciples and Peter…” Why mention Peter? Because Jesus knew something...Shame would try to keep Peter from coming back. So before Peter could even make a move toward Jesus…Jesus made a move toward him. That's where the restoration of what shame tried to steal comes in. When they meet again, Jesus doesn't say: “Explain yourself.” He says: “Do you love Me?” Three times. Each question wasn't reopening the wound, it was healing it. And then Jesus speaks purpose again: “Feed My sheep.” The Depth Behind "Feed My Sheep": Your failure didn't cancel your calling. Your mistake didn't erase your identity. Your story isn't over. What Forgiveness Does: Your sins have been sent away, not partially, but completely. You are pardoned and your debt is cancelled with nothing left to repay. You are FREE...It breaks your chains, where you are no longer bound. Peter's lowest moment didn't define him, Jesus' forgiveness did. He went from weeping in shame…to walking in purpose. The full series message concludes: John → You are loved Thomas → You can believe Peter → You are forgiven Key Takeaway - You don't have to stay where you fell, because Jesus is still calling your name.

An investigation is underway after a skydiver died at at an airfield in Kent. Emergency crews were called to Headcorn Aerodrome yesterday morning after eyewitnesses reported seeing 'an object' falling from the sky. Operators, Go Skydive, say a British Skydiving Board of Inquiry will investigate the accident. Also in today's podcast, police have released pictures of two men they want to speak to following a fatal stabbing in Whitstable. 19-year-old Ashton Harrington was found in Belmont Road in the early hours of Good Friday. There's a warning health services in Kent could be impacted as strike action gets underway this morning. Resident doctors, who used to be known as junior doctors, are walking out until next Monday. It's over a long-running dispute with government about pay. A young woman from Kent has been telling us about her battle to get treatment for a common condition, after nearly seven years of symptoms. Freya Baker has hyperhidrosis - which causes excessive sweating. The 25-year-old, from Teynham near Sittingbourne, says it makes it difficult to work or carry out day to day tasks.

This Sunday, Bill Kittrell celebrates Easter by sharing a message "Eyewitnesses of the Resurrection" in John 20.

Blessed Triduum, friends. To ring in Holy Week and soon the Easter season philosopher and theologian Dr. Trent Dougherty is here to make the case that the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is not just a matter of faith it's historically defensible. Using the "Three E's" framework (Empty Tomb, Eyewitnesses, and Early Creeds), he walks through why secular scholars and believers alike have strong rational grounds for concluding that the Resurrection actually happened. Pints: Last Call Ep. 8 - - -

A controversial courtroom decision is raising serious questions about the future of justice in America. Following the killing of NYPD officer Jonathan Diller, a jury chose not to convict on first-degree murder—despite eyewitness testimony and video evidence. Now, critics are warning of a growing trend: jury nullification. Some argue activist movements are influencing jurors, while others say it's a long-standing legal principle meant to protect against unjust laws. So what's really happening inside America's courtrooms—and what does it mean for law enforcement, public safety, and the justice system itself?

In this special Easter episode of the Equip Podcast, Mark walks through the historical and biblical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. He explores why the resurrection is not just a matter of faith, but a claim rooted in real events, eyewitness testimony, and early Christian conviction.Episode Highlights00:30 — Setting the context: Easter week and the importance of the resurrection00:59 — Why Christians revisit the evidence for the resurrection every year01:45 — Turning to 1 Corinthians 15 as a foundational text01:57 — The early creed: death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus03:13 — The resurrection as the center of the Christian message06:49 — Eyewitnesses to the resurrection of Jesus08:12 — The gospel accounts as historical sources10:12 — The resurrection as a real historical event, not just a spiritual idea12:24 — Early Christian belief grounded in real testimony14:18 — The reliability of the New Testament documents16:17 — The uniqueness of the resurrection story20:44 — Could the resurrection have been made up?22:52 — Why the resurrection still matters todayResourcesCornerstone Sermons: Listen OnlineThe Reason for God by Tim KellerAsk Mark a Question!Suggest a topic or question for Mark to discuss on a future episode of the Equip Podcast!

Easter Series 2026: Eyewitnesses of Jesus Part 2: Thomas This message shifts our focus to Thomas, not to shame his doubt, but to reveal what Jesus does through it. Thomas is often labeled “Doubting Thomas,” but Scripture shows something deeper: he wasn't the only one who doubted…he was just the one honest enough to say it out loud. I. More Than a Doubter Thomas wasn't weak, he was loyal and courageous. - In John 11, he was willing to die with Jesus - In John 14, he asked questions others were afraid to ask - He stayed with the disciples even in uncertainty - Thomas wasn't faithless, he was searching. II. The Reality of Doubt After the resurrection, when the disciples said, “We've seen the Lord,” Thomas responded: “Unless I see…I will not believe.” But here's the truth: All the disciples struggled with unbelief. (Mark 16:9–14) - They heard the testimony and still didn't believe - They walked with Jesus and still wrestled - Doubt is not the absence of faith, it's often the place where faith begins. III. Jesus Meets Us in Our Doubt Eight days later, Jesus comes back…for Thomas. - He didn't rebuke him harshly - He didn't reject him - He met him right where he was “Reach your finger here…do not be unbelieving, but believing.” And in that moment, Thomas declares: “My Lord and my God!” The greatest confession came from the one who doubted the loudest. IV. Blessed Are Those Who Believe Jesus responds with a powerful truth: “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” This shifts the message from Thomas…to us. We weren't in the room. We didn't see the scars. But we are still called to believe, because faith isn't built on sight, it's built on trust. V. How to Eliminate Doubt Doubt doesn't have to control you, you can fight it: 1. Replace It and Feed Your Faith What you consume shapes what you believe. Fill your life with truth, not fear. 2. Fight It and Stand on the Word Faith grows when you stand on God's promises, not your feelings. 3. Stop Saying It Your words reinforce your belief system. Stop speaking doubt and start declaring truth. Thomas could have been remembered as “the one who doubted”…But instead, he became the one who believed.

When life gets difficult, our natural instinct is usually to ask God for an easier path or a quick exit, but the early church in Acts 4 did the exact opposite. If you have ever wondered what true, everyday boldness looks like without just being a jerk, this conversation answers exactly how to shift your mindset and live it out. 00:00 – Intro: Praying for boldness instead of safety 00:22 – Welcome to the Midweek Move 01:00 – From Acts 3 to Acts 4: The continuing narrative of the early church 02:10 – The first major roadblock: Peter and John's arrest 03:32 – Why the community prayed for boldness over protection 04:26 – Shifting your mindset when things get difficult 05:25 – The source of boldness: Eyewitnesses of the Resurrection 07:22 – What boldness actually looks like (and why it isn't "being a jerk") 09:00 – Boldness as action: Healing, witnessing, and obedience 11:35 – Operating under the authority of Jesus vs. yourself 13:11 – Radical unity: Understanding the community in Acts 4 14:22 – Cultivating generosity without forced obligation 15:58 – The ongoing need to be filled with the Holy Spirit 18:21 – Discernment in giving: Love, trust, and boundaries 19:41 – Looking ahead: The tragedy of Acts chapter 5 21:27 – Closing thoughts and invitation to join us in Shreveport

Easter Series 2026: Eyewitnesses of Jesus Part 1: John This Easter series begins by looking at the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus through the eyes of those who were closest to Him. And first, we see it through John, not as a title of pride, but as a testimony of identity: I am the one Jesus loved. I. A Son of Thunder John didn't start soft, humble, or loving. He was bold, intense, and even prideful He and his brother James wanted positions of honor He was willing to call down fire on people who rejected Jesus John was passionate…but misplaced. Yet Jesus didn't reject him, He transformed him. II. The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved John wasn't just another follower, he was invited into deeper moments: Jairus' house - witnessing miracles The Transfiguration - seeing Jesus in glory Gethsemane - seeing Jesus in sorrow The Last Supper - leaning close to Jesus John didn't earn this closeness, he simply stayed near. And instead of labeling himself by his past, he chose a new identity: “The one Jesus loved.” III. Faithful to the End When others fled…John stayed. He stood at the cross He witnessed the suffering He was entrusted with caring for Jesus' mother Love kept him present when fear drove others away. IV. A Transformed Elder The same “Son of Thunder” became the apostle of love. “Let us love one another, for love is of God…” - 1 John 4 John's life became proof of this truth: When you truly experience the love of Jesus, you don't stay the same. His story isn't just about who he was…it's about who he became. He could have said: “I'm the one who wanted power.”...“I'm the one who got it wrong.”...But instead, he chose this identity: “I am the one Jesus loved.” Jesus wants you to know that your past doesn't define you and your mistakes don't name you. If you are in Christ, your identity is this: You are the one Jesus loves.

Eyewitnesses from a city in Iran describe how armed forces loyal to the Islamic regime killed countless protesters in a lethal crackdown on demonstrations earlier this year. Seen through the eyes of people who were in Isfahan, this programme pieces together a snapshot of events from the 8th and 9th of January. That's when huge numbers of people took to the streets to protest decades of oppression and call for an end to the Islamic Republic. Thousands of people across the country were killed by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's armed forces. The regime blamed the bloodshed on what it called rioters and street terrorists backed by the countries enemies. The UN has called for an independent investigation. However, any prospect of clarity about what happened is at risk of being overshadowed by the current conflict engulfing the country. The first waves of US and Israeli military strikes on Iran killed Ali Khamenei. There are reports of hundreds of civilian casualties too on a population that's already paid a heavy human price for standing up to the regime.(Photo: A protester flashes a victory sign in front of a fire during a demonstration in Shahin Shahr, Isfahan, Iran, on 9 January , 2026.

On the morning of June 30, 1908, something exploded over the remote Siberian wilderness with a force estimated at up to 15 megatons of TNT — flattening over 80 million trees across 800 square miles… and yet, leaving behind no crater. In this episode of Truth Be Told Paranormal, we dive deep into one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in modern history: The Tunguska Event. Was it a comet or asteroid that detonated in the atmosphere?A mini black hole passing through Earth?A secret Nikola Tesla experiment gone wrong?Alien technology malfunctioning mid-flight?Eyewitnesses reported a fireball streaking across the sky, followed by a shockwave so powerful it knocked people off their feet over 40 miles away. Windows shattered hundreds of miles from the blast site. The night skies across Europe glowed for days afterward — bright enough to read a newspaper at midnight. But with no impact crater, minimal physical debris, and delayed scientific investigation due to political turmoil in Russia, the Tunguska explosion has remained a breeding ground for conspiracy theories and alternative explanations for over a century. Tonight, we examine the science, the speculation, and the cover-up theories surrounding the largest atmospheric explosion ever recorded in human history — and ask the question: Was Tunguska truly a natural disaster… or something far more mysterious?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/truth-be-told-paranormal--3589860/support.

In the brutal winter of 1933–1934, mysterious “Ghost Fliers” terrorized the skies over Sweden, Norway, and Finland. These unmarked aircraft flew low through raging blizzards and dense fog — conditions that grounded every conventional plane — shining powerful searchlights over remote villages, railways, and military forts. Eyewitnesses, including soldiers and lighthouse keepers, described silent or intermittently silent engines, impossible maneuvers, and craft that appeared and vanished without trace.MF Thomas opens this gripping episode of My Dark Path with a haunting 1910 precursor: a sleek, black phantom biplane circling New York's illuminated Metropolitan Tower at night, performing death-defying stunts that defied the era's primitive aviation. From there, the phenomenon explodes into hundreds of documented sightings across Scandinavia.Governments launched massive investigations. The Swedish military reviewed 487 reports and deemed dozens credible and unexplained. Newspapers were censored. Search parties scoured snowy mountains on skis. Landings were reported. One aircraft allegedly crashed on a remote Norwegian peak — witnesses saw figures clearing snow, heard engines restart, then found nothing but strange tracks in the snow.Were these secret Soviet, German, or Japanese spy planes? Or something far stranger — early UAPs and the direct predecessors of modern UFO encounters?Drawing on rare newspaper accounts and John A. Keel's definitive research, this episode examines one of the largest and most overlooked aerial mysteries of the 20th century.If you love aviation history, unsolved UFO cases, and true fringe mysteries, this one will keep you up at nightRead MF Thomas' novels Like Clockwork https://amzn.to/417lOzyArcade https://amzn.to/4aTpisxA Sickness in Time https://amzn.to/41apSPKSeeing by Moonlight ...

Can the New Testament really be trusted? Was it written too late, copied too often, or shaped by biased authors? In this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters Podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver is joined by Dr. Benjamin Shaw, author of Trustworthy: 13 Arguments for the Reliability of the New Testament, to examine the historical evidence supporting the trustworthiness of the New Testament.This conversation explores:-Manuscript evidence and textual reliability-Early dating of the New Testament writings-Eyewitness testimony-Why skeptics treat the Bible differently from other ancient texts-External historical sources like Josephus and Tacitus -Whether the earliest Christians believed Jesus was God-Why the apostles were willing to suffer and die for their testimonyDr. Shaw, president of Core Apologetics and former research assistant to Dr. Gary Habermas, presents compelling arguments showing that the New Testament stands as the best-attested document of antiquity.

Oh Bigfoot! Come Out, Come Out Wherever You Are With Stan Gordon & Jeff Davis The mysterious cryptid known as Bigfoot has captivated our imaginations for decades. A creature that shouldn't exist according to science goes by many names around the world. Eyewitnesses from nearly every walk of life and region have reported encounters with the elusive being, yet definitive physical evidence remains frustratingly absent. Some regions appear to generate far more reports than others, possibly due to environmental factors. In some cases, Bigfoot sightings are also linked with other paranormal phenomena. That raises the question, why hasn't a body been recovered? One theory proposes that these creatures retreat to places like caves, where unique atmospheric and barometric conditions that are believed by some to have healing effects could help explain the absence of physical evidence. Tonight, Jeremy Scott sits in for Clyde Lewis as he talks with Bigfoot and cryptid researchers Stan Gordon and Jeff Davis about the phenomenon that shows no signs of dying

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Is spontaneous human combustion just a bizarre, unexplained freak of science—or is there something darker at play? For centuries, reports have surfaced of people mysteriously bursting into flames with no apparent ignition source. No candles. No gasoline. Just scorched remains, a burned chair, and rooms otherwise untouched by fire. These true stories have puzzled experts and terrified the public. But what if the answer isn't found in chemistry... but in the paranormal? We dive deep into the eerie possibility that poltergeists or malevolent spirits could be the true cause behind some of the most shocking cases of spontaneous human combustion ever recorded. Could the same unseen forces known for knocking over furniture, scratching walls, and tormenting the living actually have the power to ignite a human being from the inside out? We explore haunting theories: Are these fiery deaths the result of intense psychic energy? A form of spiritual punishment? Or are we witnessing a terrifying consequence of crossing into a realm we were never meant to enter? Eyewitnesses, researchers, and survivors of nearby encounters paint a picture that's as disturbing as it is mysterious. And the deeper you look into it… the harder it is to explain away. This is not just a history lesson—it's a warning. Because if the spirit world has a hand in these deadly combustions, it raises one terrifying question…Could it happen to you? #SpontaneousHumanCombustion #SHC #PoltergeistActivity #TrueGhostStories #RealHaunting #GhostCaughtOnCamera #UnsolvedMysteries #ParanormalPhenomenon #CreepyEncounters #TheGraveTalks #DarkHistory #SpiritWorld Love real ghost stories?
