Podcasts about go to heaven

The bond between humans and dogs is an unbreakable one. From their domestication some 20000 to 40000 years ago during the Ice Age, they've become loyal companions and dear friends. Across cultures, dogs are often associated with benevolence, but did you know that a town in Medieval France even went as far as to make one a saint? Find out how it all happened in this week's episode, all about Saint Guinefort, the dog saint!

Can you keep sinning and still go to heaven? Is it okay to support a friend who just told you she had an abortion? How do you honor a parent who says they're a Christian but doesn't live like one? These are the kinds of questions most people are afraid to ask out loud.In this Fire Away Q&A service, Pastor Brian and Pastor Brandon sit on stage together and answer the questions our congregation texts in live. No script, no preselected questions, no editing. Just real pastoral answers to the things people are actually wrestling with.Pastor Brandon opens with the apologetic question: how do you reach a family member who loves history but is on the fence about the gospel? He points to the historical credibility of the gospel accounts, especially the witness of the women at the resurrection in a culture that did not value women's testimony, 1 Corinthians 15 where Paul says you could still go talk to people who saw the risen Jesus, the work of scholars like Wes Huff and Lee Strobel, and the wild improbability of the disciples inventing a story they would die violent deaths to defend.The conversation gets harder fast with the abortion question. Pastor Brian and Pastor Brandon walk slowly through what it means to love someone who has done something Scripture calls sin without endorsing the sin. Be available. Play the long relational game. Pray that one day God uses you to point them not just to the gravity of what they have done, but to the cross that has already paid for it.On honoring a parent who says they are a Christian but does not live like one, Pastor Brian unpacks the difference between obey and honor, why honor has to transcend even decades of disappointment, why dishonor is just drinking poison and hoping the other person dies, and why the deeper question may not be "how do I confront this person" but "does this person actually need to be born again?"They tackle tattoos (mostly a conscience question for New Testament believers, not the Old Testament Canaanite context many people assume), the best advice for newlyweds (Pastor Brian's encouragement to pray together out loud regularly, and Pastor Brandon's reminder to find a community of other young couples who love Jesus), and they close with one of the most asked questions in modern American Christianity. If I keep sinning, can I lose my salvation?Pastor Brian's answer here is worth the whole service. You did not behave your way into salvation, and you cannot behave your way out of it. But do not play games with God either. The reason you are saved is to be sanctified. If your sin is bothering you, lean into that conviction. A bruised reed Jesus will not break, and a smoldering wick of faith he will not put out (Isaiah 42:3).If you have ever had real questions about heaven, sin, family, marriage, or doubt that nobody around you was answering, this teaching is for you. Skip to the chapter that sounds most like your story, or watch the whole thing.

Mark Winner discusses John 3:13—“No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.”

It's Question Time, and today's episode features an engaging question from one of our listeners based on Tim's argument that animals (including beloved pets) go to heaven. If that's true, says this listener, then how is God good if my child who I love MORE than my pet might be going to Hell? Josh and Tim tackle this philosophically, theologically, and pastorally. Want to ask a question? Go to our website: https://www.freethinkingministries.co... Check out Tim's Second Edition of Mere Molinism: https://us.amazon.com/Freedom-Divine-... Check out Josh's Novel: https://us.amazon.com/Fracture-Joshua... Tim's Article and Argument for pets going to heave: https://www.freethinkingministries.co... The full e-mail: I love my dog, but I love my child more. The following may reveal my own selfishness in that I don't want my child to choose what he desires (a life without Christ). Though I believe in freewill, I am almost to the point where I wish God did not grant it. I'd rather have my child "a robot" in Heaven with God and me than have him freely choose his eternal destination. I am concerned for a day when my son's sin takes him to the point of a totally seared conscience. Though my son is not a drug addict, a drug addict gets to the point of addiction when he knows not what he does in harming his own body, mind, etc. Isn't any sin this way? We know not what we do. We, as fallible creatures, don't know what's best for us. Only our Creator knows this, and yet He allows us to choose wrongly?!? Why?!? Why would God take an animal to heaven while allowing a mother or father who would die for their child (a human being made in God's image, unlike an animal, and "worth more than the birds of the air") to be separated from him for eternity? It is said that to have loved and then lost is better than to have never loved at all, but I'm not so sure right now. Pictures and memories of my son's "innocence" in childhood haunt me. Yet some say God wipes away such memories in Heaven, but don't you think we will know more, not less, in Eternity? To wipe that child from one's memory seems diminishing. Even to suggest annihilation (a theory I don't favor) would not soften the wounds of loss to a mother's heart. No longer existing seems to delegitimize any life. Even the truth of someday having a better understanding of God's holiness and justice regarding my own flesh and blood is gut wrenching (I agree we all deserve Hell). Why are we to lay down our lives for sinners now in reaching them for Christ but will eventually rejoice in jubilation when the time of their destruction comes? Why would God have fashioned such motherly sentiments to unconditionally love and sacrificially nurture if we were to suffer this pain of eternal separation? If God loves me and if God knew my child would not follow Him, why did He bring about a world allowing him to be created? Or to survive infancy? Theoretically, even abortion (God forbid!) would have been a better outcome as, if I'm correct in my theology, such would eventually reunite us. Is abortion a virtue in that all babes are saved from damnation? God forgive the thought! We are told to be fruitful and multiply, but why even risk having children if there's a possibility of having even one child…or grandchild or great grandchild or a great-great separated from you forever? Obedience beyond understanding? I don't want one from my family tree or one acquaintance or even one stranger to be lost! The only remedy I see to this scenario as we are to love even our enemies is universal reconciliation, also a theory I do not favor...because of free will! Can you help me with these excruciating dilemmas? For my sanity's sake I have to believe all my children will be with God in eternity, but since I don't believe universalism is biblical, what of those others who will be separated eternally from loved ones? Is the only answer to trust God? Thank you greatly for your time; I appreciate any help you may provide this hurting mama. ➡️ CHAPTERS ⬅️  00:00 Introduction 04:00 What Led to An Argument About Animals Going to Heaven? 05:35 The Reasonable Hope That Pets Go To Heaven Argument 11:00 Introducing Kim's E-mail - I Kind of Wish My Child Was a Robot 16:48 Why Would God Take an Animal and not my Son? 38:55 Will We Not Remember Pain In Heaven? 47:52 We Will Rejoice with Jubilation When People Go to Hell? 53:13 Why Would God Give Me A Child He KNOWS Will Reject Him? 1:04:00 Why Even Risk Having Children If They COULD Go to Hell? 1:10:30 Is Universalism the Only REAL Hope? 1:19:23 Concluding Thoughts ➡️ SOCIALS ⬅️ Website: https://freethinkingministries.com F acebook:   / freethinkinc   Instagram:   / freethinkinc   X: https://x.com/freethinkmin TikTok:   / freethinkinc   #Apologetics #FreeThinking #Christianity

In this episode, Dr. Nathan Jacobs explores the simple question: do animals merely live and die, or is there reason to think they share in something more? Drawing from Scripture, the Eastern Orthodox Church Fathers, and the Christian understanding of creation, he examines death, immortality, and humanity's role within the cosmos, arriving at an answer that is more nuanced than many expect.Please support the East West series: http://theeastwestseries.com/YouTube: https://youtu.be/HlAk0Jm8xd4Do you like this content?

The Lies We Believe // Good People Go to Heaven // Pastor Philip Muela by Inspire Churches

The Dead have a long history of great Spring performances, and 1980 was no exception. This week we go to Nassau for the May 14, 1980 show at the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. This was the first night of a three‑show run, with the last two nights later compiled on the 2002 "Go To Nassau" release, leaving this opening show as the odd one out from the official catalog. This show comes shortly after the "Go To Heaven" release, so they open with "Alabama Getaway." Jerry gives us a fine reading of "Candyman," and the arrangements on Weir's "country" tunes—"Mexicali Blues" and "El Paso"—are rockin'. "Tennessee Jed" follows, with Brent providing a lovely counterpoint to Garcia's leads. "Let It Grow" then leads into a still‑new "Althea." Another "Go To Heaven" tune follows, Brent's "Easy to Love You," which leads into a rocking, set‑closing "Music Never Stopped." Let's settle in at Nassau Coliseum, May 14, 1980, on this week's Deadpod. Grateful Dead Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum Uniondale, NY 5/14/1980 - Wednesday One     Alabama Getaway [4:10] > The Promised Land [4:08] ; Candyman [7:32] ; Mexicali Blues [4:33] > El Paso [4:22] ; Tennessee Jed [9:25] ; Let It Grow [9:00] > Althea [8:15] ; Easy To Love You [3:49] > The Music Never Stopped [7:38]  You can listen to this week's Deadpod here:  https://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod050826.mp3   As always my sincere thanks for your kind support.

How do we get to Heaven? In this episode, Dr. Rob Rienow concludes the series on Heaven by addressing the most important question of all—what it takes to enter eternal life with God.

In this episode you'll learn: - Why heaven cannot be earned through good behavior - What the Bible teaches about sin and judgment - The meaning of the Book of Life in Scripture - How salvation comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ - What it means to trust Jesus for forgiveness and eternal life - Why parents should talk with their children about the gospel now Featured Resources: Upcoming Events — Meet us in person at a Visionary Family Conference near you.

There's a version of Christianity that fits perfectly on a bumper sticker—short, catchy, and easy to repeat. Phrases like “God helps those who help themselves,” “Everything happens for a reason,” or “Follow your heart” sound spiritual… even comforting. But what if some of the ideas we've picked up—ideas we've repeated and believed—aren't actually found in Scripture? In this series, Bumper Sticker Theology, we're going to take a closer look at some of the most common Christian clichés and ask a simple question: Is it true… or does it just sound true?       Westbridge Church is people helping people FIND and FOLLOW JESUS! We believe that no matter where you are in your faith, there's always a next step you can take to grow in your relationship with God. As a church, we are committed to continually growing and encouraging others to grow in their faith, connect in community, share God's grace, serve others, live generously, and have serious fun along the way.   Learn more: https://westbridgechurch.com/ Connect with us: https://linktr.ee/westbridgechurchmn Current worship: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2lpxmpwwtzhkeebpp8frhihttp://spotify.com/playlist/2lpxmpwwtzhkeebpp8frhi

For this episode you must love dogs and should bring tissues, because everybody's crying—especially Mikey and Randie.For their second EP back, the Chapmans talk about…Groot. The dog clacking in all of the episodes and posing in all of the logos. Their first baby. The soul that made them a family before the human littles entered the world.Why is Groot the focus of this episode? Because after 10 long years, Groot was laid to rest after his year-long battle with Mast Cell Cancer. So to honor him the Chapmans share his origin story, their favorite moments with him, what the end of his life was like, what they would tell anyone parenting a senior dog, and more.Later, having no fight in her, Randie leads the PDA and the couple express gratitude for one another.Tune in and the Chapmans thank you for all of the love.Follow us on Social MediaFB: http://bit.ly/BMMonFBIG: http://bit.ly/BMMonIGContactEmail: blackmilmar@gmail.comLeave a voicemail: 770-750-4098P.S. To hang out with us and support our work as independent creators, join us on Patreon at http://bit.ly/JOINBMM there you'll get access to our Discord channel, unedited, edited and ad-free episodes, zoom meetings with us, and more. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel – Matthew 26:14-25 – One of the Twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests and said, “What are you willing to give me if I hand Him over to you?” They paid him thirty pieces of silver, and from that time on he looked for an opportunity to hand Him over. On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples approached Jesus and said, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?” He said, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says, “My appointed time draws near; in your house I shall celebrate the Passover with My disciples.”‘“ The disciples then did as Jesus had ordered, and prepared the Passover. When it was evening, He reclined at table with the Twelve. And while they were eating, He said, “Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray Me.” Deeply distressed at this, they began to say to Him one after another, “Surely it is not I, Lord?” He said in reply, “He who has dipped his hand into the dish with Me is the one who will betray Me. The Son of Man indeed goes, as it is written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed. It would be better for that man if he had never been born.” Then Judas, his betrayer, said in reply, “Surely it is not I, Rabbi?” He answered, “You have said so.” Bishop Sheen quote of the day

Send us Fan MailMorality without Jesus is a primary topic of discussion among those thinking about Christ. Good things that people do make the world a better place. But is doing enough good enough to get you into heaven? We can look at this question by dividing it into Biblical concepts. Who is good? What is good? Is there something you can do on your own merit to purchase your eternal life? Can you buy it? The Bible is clear heaven cannot be earned. It is a gift of grace from God through Jesus Christ. Heaven in the Bible is presented as an eternal relationship with Jesus. Eternal life is knowing God and Jesus Christ. Why would you want to be with Jesus if you don't believe in Him? Why would you want a reward from someone you don't believe in?Are you thinking about your existence after this life as a transaction? Are you storing treasures in heaven by building your relationship with Jesus?=====Searching for answers to life's questions? Need help finding a church? Drop us a line.

It's an age-old question, and there's no perfect answer. While the Church does not teach "dog-matically" that our beloved animals will or will not be in Heaven, some think they will be, as the Scriptures describe animals at peace in the new creation.

Even naughty dogs can have a huge impact on animation.In 1989, animator Don Bluth dared to go it alone, without the might of George Lucas and/or Steven Spielberg, and pushed the boundaries of what animated movies could explore in All Dogs Go To Heaven; the third and final movie to celebrate this podcast's seventh birthday.Released on the exact same day as Disney's The Little Mermaid, this darker, grittier tale of redemption featured a con-artist dog literally escaping heaven to seek revenge on his murderer, complete with a terrifying nightmare sequence that traumatized a generation of kids.But the real horror wasn't just on screen. All Dogs Go To Heaven became a haunting memorial to ten-year-old Judith Barsi, whose voice brought orphan Anne-Marie to life just over a year after she and her mother were killed by her father, with the movie released posthumously, and its end credits song dedicated in her honour.Despite being overshadowed at the box office by Disney's juggernaut, All Dogs Go to Heaven has endured as a cult classic that represents both the peak of Don Bluth's artistic ambition and the beginning of his studio's commercial decline.Bluth's rebellious approach to animation, rejecting Disney's formula in favour of raw emotion and moral complexity, created a film that dared to ask whether dogs have souls, whether redemption is possible, and whether animated movies need happy endings. From its chaotic production with multiple story contributors to its lasting impact on viewers who still remember that nightmarish boat ride to hell, this is the story of an animated film that refused to play it safe.Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

When a beloved dog dies, many of us ask the same question: Do dogs go to heaven? In this episode, Scott Sheaffer explores this deeply emotional topic from a pan-religious and personal perspective, drawing from Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and Eastern traditions. He also reflects on why grief makes us feel childlike and why stories like the Rainbow Bridge poem and the book Dog Heaven bring so much comfort.This episode is for anyone who has lost a heart dog—or will someday. It's not about proving theology, but about understanding love, grief, and why the human heart looks for hope when a loyal companion leaves this world.Episode Link(s):Losing a Dog Hurts—Here's the True Story Behind a Famous Poem That Eases the PainDog Heaven by Cynthia RylantSubscribe for more bite-sized episodes and visit USADogBehavior.com for additional resources!Find us at USADogBehavior.com.Follow us on Facebook.DisclaimerThis podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional advice.

What if Christianity was never meant to be about escaping earth for heaven, but about God coming home to the world? In this episode, I sit down with N. T. Wright for a wide-ranging conversation that reclaims the Bible's larger story: heaven and earth meant to overlap, God dwelling with humanity, and new creation beginning now. We explore temples and tabernacles, resurrection and judgment, what it truly means to be human, and how the church is called to reflect God's presence in a fractured world. Drawing from Wright's latest book God's Homecoming, this conversation invites youto rethink faith, hope, justice, and the future of the world and to rediscover a gospel that is far bigger, richer, and more grounded than we thought.N. T. Wright is the former Bishop of Durham in the Church of England and one of the world's leading Bible scholars. He is Senior Research Fellow at Wycliffe Hall, Oxford University, and Senior Editor at Saint Andrews. He has been featured on ABC News, Dateline, The Colbert Report, and NPR's Fresh Air. Wright is the award-winning author of many books, including Paul: A Biography, Simply Christian, Surprised by Hope, The Day the Revolution Began, Simply Jesus, After You Believe, and Scripture and the Authority of God.N.T.

“How good is good enough?”  Here's the short answer. We could never be good enough to go to Heaven. It's simply not possible for humans to satisfy the justice of God with our efforts at being good.  The Bible teaches us that being a good person could never save us. Instead, salvation is based on the goodness of Jesus, on our behalf.Main Points:1. Jesus, in kindness and love, took our sins upon himself and once and for all died in our place. This is the definition of goodness. God did for us what we could not do for ourselves. Jesus paid the penalty for our sins, satisfying the justice of a righteous and holy God.2. Forgiveness of our sins and the promise of eternal life is received as a gift from God. We receive this gift as we confess Jesus Christ as our Savior and Lord. We place our faith in his death and resurrection for our sins, instead of placing our faith in our good works.3. Refuse to buy into the deception that you could be good enough to go to Heaven. Put your faith in Jesus, who was good on our behalf.Today's Scripture Verses:Judges 21:25 - “In those days Israel had no king; all the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes.Proverbs 14:12 - “There is a path before each person that seems right, but it ends in death.”Isaiah 64:6 - “We are all infected and impure with sin. When we display our righteous deeds, they are nothing but filthy rags.”Titus 3:4-5 - “When God our Savior revealed his kindness and love, he saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group
