What if the key to living a truly godly life has nothing to do with trying harder—but everything to do with seeing clearly what God has already done? In Episode 3 of The Mystery of Godliness, Duane Sheriff teaches that living the Christian faith is not about rules and regulations… It is about who God is and what God has done for us. Godliness is not about rules, regulations, or what we can do for God, but rather about who God is and what He accomplished through Jesus Christ.A Christian's life flows from understanding the incarnation, the virgin birth, and Christ's substitutionary work on the cross. True transformation doesn't come from striving—but from seeing that God became man, lived among us, and took our place. This mystery was hidden from the powers of darkness but revealed to those who fear the Lord, and it becomes the foundation for true transformation. As stewards of God's mysteries, we are called to be faithful in understanding and sharing these divine secrets that hold the power to change lives.Discover how this mystery opens your eyes, renews your heart, and empowers you to live a life that reflects God—not by striving, but by believing.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/landing/the-mystery-of-godliness/

How we respond to our afflictions will shape our character. We can strive to see God's hand in our lives like Nephi and Francis Webster.(15:34) The book of Numbers contains evidence that it is a compilation of separate traditions. Understanding these traditions helps to explain some contradictions in the text.(21:48) Israel murmurs and lusts for meat instead of manna. The Lord abundantly blesses them with quail.(25:11) Moses complains that he can't bear the burden alone and is commanded to choose 70 to assist him. The very essence of Christianity is to have compassion for those who are downtrodden.(29:24) The Greek translation of manna leads to fascinating possibilities. The Israelites loathe the manna and want something exciting and new.(35:41) Aaron and Miriam challenge Moses' authority. Numbers 12 portrays Moses as God's authorized representative, emphasizing hierarchical priesthood authority.(39:08) Moses sends 12 spies to search the land of Canaan. Ten of them bring back a negative report, telling of giants inhabiting the land. Joshua and Caleb give a positive report and say that Israel can take the land of Canaan.(43:20) Moses stands as intercessor, working to convince the Lord to not smite the Israelites. The adult Israelites murmur and want to die in the wilderness. The Lord grants this request, while also emphasizing that he desires to have a righteous people who will build Zion.(47:34) Miriam and Aaron die in the wilderness. Moses will see, but not enter the promised land.(49:42) The king of Edom refuses to let Israel pass peacefully through his land. We can choose to not be offended.(52:04) The Israelites are plagued and bitten by fiery serpents. Moses lifts up a serpent of brass to save those who will look upon it. This story is told in greater detail in the Book of Mormon. We should not be slothful because of the easiness of the way.(1:00:00) Og, the king of Bashan, is described as the last of the giants. His bed is described with the same dimensions as that of Marduk, a Mesopotamian deity.(1:02:16) Balak offers Balaam money, cattle, and great honors to curse Israel. Balaam refuses, and instead pronounces great blessings upon Israel.(1:13:54) Another perspective on why the Lord was angry with Balaam. → For more of Bryce Dunford’s podcast classes, click here. → Enroll in Institute → YouTube → Apple Podcasts → Spotify → Amazon Music → Facebook The post Ep 370 | Numbers, Come Follow Me 2026 (May 4-10) appeared first on LDS Scripture Teachings.

Popularized in the 19th century, the pre-tribulational rapture is the idea that millions of Christians will suddenly vanish before a future seven-year tribulation. This is one of the most widely held beliefs in modern Christianity—but is this teaching actually grounded in Scripture? Hank Hanegraaff examines the case on this episode of Hank Unplugged.   Drawing from key biblical passages—including John 5, Matthew 24, 1 Thessalonians 4, 1 Corinthians 15, and Revelation 21—Hank argues that the Bible presents a very different picture:  One unified resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteousOne visible, final return of ChristOne redeemed creation, liberated together with the people of God  Hank also explores:  The historical roots of rapture theologyThe meaning of the “abomination of desolation” and first-century tribulationWhether Scripture supports a future seven-year tribulation or rebuilt templeMisconceptions surrounding “replacement theology”The true nature of the Church as one covenant people in Christ Rather than a secret rapture or a divided plan for Israel and the Church, Hanegraaff presents the biblical hope of resurrection, restoration, and the renewal of all things.  Timestamp below:0:00 Introduction: The Imminent Rapture Belief0:35 What the Pre-Tribulation Rapture Teaches3:25 Is the Rapture Biblical?4:25 One Resurrection of All (John 5:28–29)5:35 The Real “Great Tribulation(s)” in History9:00 No Future Seven-Year Tribulation or Rebuilt Temple10:50 No Second-Chance Salvation after Christ's Second Appearing11:20 One Redemption: Creation and Our Bodies (Romans 8)12:40 What 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18 Actually Teaches16:00 Misreading John 14 and the “Mansions” Passage19:15 What about “Replacement Theology”?24:15 Reaffirming 1 Thessalonians 4:13–1827:00 Christians Must Test All Things, Holding to What's Good and True.  For further study, see The Apocalypse Code: Find Out What the Bible Really Says About the End Times and Why It Matters Today https://www.equip.org/product/cri-resource-the-apocalypse-code-for-gift/  See also the many related articles at www.equip.org, including:   “Apocalypse When?

Welcome to Day 2851 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theosis and Its Counterfeit: How Hermeticism, Gnosticism, and Their Heirs Distorted Deification. Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2851 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps!   I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2851 of our Trek.   The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Our current series of Theology Thursday lessons is written by theologian and teacher John Daniels. I have found that his lessons are short, easy to understand, doctrinally sound, and applicable to all who desire to learn more of God's Word. John's lessons can be found on his website   theologyinfive.com.   Today's lesson is titled:  Theosis and Its Counterfeit: How Hermeticism, Gnosticism, and Their Heirs Distorted Deification. The Eastern Orthodox Church preserves one of the most profound teachings of Christianity: theosis, or deification. This doctrine is not about erasing the line between Creator and creation but about God drawing humanity into His own life. Through Christ's incarnation, death, and resurrection, believers become partakers of the divine nature, not by nature but by grace. Athanasius expressed it clearly: “God became man so that man might become god.” By this, the Fathers never meant that humanity becomes equal to Yahweh in essence. Rather, theosis means that through grace we are healed, restored, and glorified in Christ, sharing in His life while always remaining His creatures. The Counterfeit in Eden The serpent in Eden also offered a form of deification. His words, “You will be like gods,” suggested that humanity could seize by rebellion what God intended to give through communion. The Eastern Orthodox vision of theosis fulfills God's purpose, while the serpent's promise distorts it. Throughout history, this distortion has reappeared in many guises, most notably in Hermeticism and Gnosticism. Echoes of Antediluvian Rebellion Many occult systems, whether ancient mystery religions or modern esoteric revivals, could have drawn their perceived legitimacy from the idea that they recover lost knowledge from before the Flood. Traditions surrounding the Watchers, the Apkallu, or figures like Prometheus all involve heavenly beings imparting forbidden wisdom to humanity in defiance of divine boundaries. This knowledge, which included arts, sciences, and sorcery, was not neutral. It was given with the intent to corrupt and destroy. After the Flood, while the physical giants perished, their spirits, what later literature calls demons, remained. These disembodied spirits could have been the source of insight or inspiration for occult practitioners throughout history, masquerading as guides to hidden wisdom while promoting rebellion against God. Whether through direct contact or mythic lineage, many esoteric movements trace their roots back to this primeval transgression. Hermeticism: Optimistic Gnosis The Corpus Hermeticum, composed in the early centuries of the Christian era, fused Egyptian religion with Greek philosophy. It taught that humans contain a divine spark that can be awakened through hidden wisdom. Salvation came not through God's grace but through gnosis, mystical ascent, and the realization of one's innate divinity. Unlike Gnosticism, Hermeticism viewed the cosmos more positively, as a reflection of divine order, but its end goal was the same: erasing the line between Creator and creation. Gnosticism: Dualistic Gnosis Gnosticism developed in the same cultural environment and shared Hermeticism's focus on hidden wisdom and the divine spark in man. But it was far more pessimistic. Many Gnostic systems taught that the material world was a prison fashioned by a false or ignorant creator, the Demiurge. Salvation meant escaping matter entirely and returning to the realm of spirit. Its texts, like the Apocryphon of John or the Gospel of Thomas, presented elaborate myths of aeons, archons, and cosmic struggles that reframed rebellion as enlightenment. Parallel Streams of Corruption Though different in tone, Hermeticism optimistic and Gnosticism pessimistic, both traditions proclaimed salvation by gnosis. Both claimed man was divine by nature. Both promised deification apart from Christ. And both blurred or destroyed the Creator–creature distinction. Where Orthodoxy taught communion by grace, Hermeticism and Gnosticism promised exaltation by hidden knowledge. Renaissance Rediscovery and Transmission In the Renaissance, Hermetic and Gnostic writings were rediscovered and hailed as the prisca theologia, a supposed universal truth older than Moses. Figures like Marsilio Ficino and Pico della Mirandola embraced these texts as revelations of timeless wisdom. Their influence spread through alchemy, astrology, and ritual magic, setting the stage for later esoteric societies. Hermetic optimism and Gnostic dualism together nourished the roots of Western occultism. Freemasonry Freemasonry grew out of the esoteric ferment of the Renaissance and Enlightenment, which were themselves shaped by the rediscovery of the Hermetic and Gnostic writings. While the fraternity presents itself publicly as a system of moral improvement and brotherhood, its inner symbolism and ritual language reveal a strong dependence on Hermetic and alchemical traditions. The Masonic use of sacred geometry, the emphasis on hidden degrees of initiation, and the maxim “as above, so below” all trace back to the Corpus Hermeticum and related Hermetic texts. The Renaissance had already reintroduced these ideas into European culture, presenting Hermeticism and Gnosticism as prisca theologia, a supposed ancient wisdom that underlay all religions. These concepts filtered into Rosicrucian manifestos in the seventeenth century, which combined mystical Christianity with alchemy and Hermetic philosophy. Rosicrucian influence, in turn, fed directly into the development of modern Freemasonry in the eighteenth century. The lodge thus became an heir to the Hermetic worldview, reframing gnosis not in overtly pagan terms but as moral allegory and ritual drama. Freemasonry's initiation system reflects the Gnostic idea that truth is revealed progressively to an inner circle of the enlightened. The candidate begins in ignorance, is symbolically “raised” to new life, and ascends through degrees of increasing illumination. The rituals employ veiled symbols and allegories rather than explicit teaching, echoing the Hermetic conviction that divine truths must be concealed from the unworthy and revealed only to initiates. This places Freemasonry in continuity with both Hermetic mysteries and Gnostic elitism. Although Freemasonry claims to honor God, it deliberately leaves the identity of God undefined. Its universalist ethos allows men of any faith to participate, so long as they acknowledge a Supreme Being. This broad inclusivity is not biblical covenantal faith but a continuation of Hermetic universalism, which treated all religions as partial reflections of a hidden wisdom tradition. By blending fragments of biblical language with Hermetic symbols and Gnostic structures, Freemasonry offers a path of human self-perfection and enlightenment apart from Christ. Mormonism Mormonism reflects both the Hermetic worldview and Masonic ritual structure. Long before Joseph Smith entered a Masonic lodge in Nauvoo, he was already immersed in practices rooted in Hermetic and occult traditions. In his youth, Smith participated in treasure-seeking expeditions using a divining rod, seer stones, and ritual circles. These tools and practices were drawn from the folk-magic culture of early America, which itself was saturated with ideas that had filtered down from Renaissance Hermeticism and alchemical traditions. The belief that hidden knowledge could be accessed through special instruments, secret formulas, and visionary techniques fits neatly within the Hermetic framework of unlocking the unseen world. When Smith later became a Mason in 1842, he layered these Hermetic practices with Masonic structures. Within weeks of his initiation, he introduced LDS temple ceremonies that bore striking resemblances to Masonic rituals, including secret handshakes, symbolic clothing, and oaths of secrecy. Just as Freemasonry framed its degrees as progressive revelations of hidden wisdom, so too did Smith present Mormon temple ordinances as the means by which believers gained access to the mysteries of exaltation. Doctrinally, Mormonism's teaching of eternal progression mirrors the Hermetic promise of apotheosis. God the Father is said to have been a man who became a god, and faithful men may follow the same path. This collapses the biblical distinction between Creator and creature and transforms salvation into a process of exaltation through hidden rites and teachings. The Mormon vision of countless gods presiding over countless worlds echoes the multiplicity of divine beings in Hermetic and Gnostic systems, while its temple ceremonies function as initiatory mysteries in which knowledge is revealed step by step. From his earliest magical experiments...

Imagine if everything you thought about living a godly life was upside down—and the real power to change was never in your effort to begin with. In Episode 2 of "The Mystery of Godliness," Duane Sheriff reveals that true godliness doesn't come from trying harder, spiritual discipline, or self-righteous effort, but from believing what God has already done for us in Christ. From 1 Timothy 3:16, he unpacks the “mystery of godliness” as the gospel scheme: Jesus' life, death, burial, resurrection, and ascension—and your personal connection to every part of it.Through his own powerful testimony and a vivid open vision of the cross, Duane brings this truth to life in a profound way—seeing himself in Christ at the crucifixion, burial, resurrection, and ascension. This revelation moves beyond theory, illustrating what it truly means to be in Christ and how completely our old identity has been put to death and replaced with new life in Him. In that moment, the mystery of godliness became real, personal, and transformative.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/landing/the-mystery-of-godliness/

In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Leslie Baynes explores the complex relationship between C.S. Lewis and the Bible. While Lewis is widely celebrated for his theological insight and literary brilliance, Baynes' research uncovers a more nuanced reality—one where Lewis occasionally misquotes scripture, relies heavily on memory, and even attributes statements to Jesus that do not appear in the Gospels. Drawing from her book Between Interpretation and Imagination: C.S. Lewis and the Bible, Baynes examines both Lewis's profound contributions and his interpretive missteps, including his famous “liar, lunatic, or Lord” argument.  The episode also tackles the cultural phenomenon of “Saint Lewis,” particularly among American evangelicals, and the resistance to critically evaluating his work. Yet, rather than dismissing Lewis, Baynes advocates for a balanced perspective—appreciating his literary and spiritual impact while engaging his ideas with scholarly rigor. This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in biblical interpretation, theology, and the enduring influence of one of Christianity's most beloved thinkers.

In this episode, cold-case homicide detective and Christian apologist J. Warner Wallace walks through the "spiritual crime scene" of his own journey from skeptical naturalist to follower of Jesus. Drawing on decades of investigative experience, he explains why the usual reasons people give for being Christians ("I was raised this way" or "I had an experience") are not uniquely Christian, and why the real question is whether the Gospels record what actually happened in the first century. You'll hear how eyewitness variation in the Gospel accounts first caught his attention, how the standard jury instructions for testing witnesses can be applied to the New Testament, and why abductive reasoning from four key facts about Jesus points most reasonably to the resurrection. J. Warner also unpacks his memorable distinction between "belief that" and "belief in," using a bulletproof vest story from an officer-involved shooting to show what genuine, evidence-based trust in Christ looks like when the stakes are life and death. Along the way, he addresses miracles in other world religions, the rising generational question "Is Christianity good and worth caring about?", and the power of God-honoring content to reshape our culture.

What if the power to live a truly godly life has been hidden in plain sight all along? Scripture reveals a divine secret that transforms how we live. In this series, "The Mystery of Godliness," Duane Sheriff teaches that godliness isn't achieved through human effort or willpower, but through understanding and connecting to this revealed mystery—God manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the world, and received into glory.This mystery reveals that Christ now lives in believers, empowering us to live godly lives through grace, the cross, the gospel, and the Holy Spirit. While we are not saved by works, we are saved for good works—and grace teaches us to deny ungodliness and live righteously.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/landing/the-mystery-of-godliness/

1 Chronicles 7-10

I recap my wild Stagecoach experience and my thoughts on that scandalous leaked audio from Summer House. Then, I am joined by the hilarious John Crist for an incredibly open conversation about his rise as an internet sensation and his long-standing career in stand-up comedy. We dive deep into his unique upbringing as a pastor's kid, how he successfully bridges the gap between Christianity and comedy, and the personal mistakes he made that led to a powerful journey of redemption.

Judges 8:18-9:21, Luke 23:44-24:12, Ps 99:1-9, Pr 14:9-10

2 Thessalonians 3:6–15 Christ's imminent return doesn't grant believers a free pass to stand on the sidelines, idly watching the skies and neglecting responsibility. Listen to Pastor Chuck Swindoll's challenge to reject lukewarm Christianity and embrace active involvement in your faith and local church. Discover the meaning of Paul's words in 2 Thessalonians 3:10, “if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either” (NASB). Do not grow weary of doing good. Pray, give, and serve with enthusiasm, dedication, and joy!

Who was Poppaea Sabina—and how much power did she really have over Emperor Nero? In Episode 2 of this Revelation series, Jay Rogers uncovers the story of one of Rome’s most mysterious and controversial figures. Often portrayed as a ruthless manipulator, Poppaea’s life reveals a far more complex reality—one that may intersect with early Christianity itself. In this episode: - The rise of Poppaea from ambition to empress - Her role in the downfall of Agrippina - The shocking historical accounts of Nero’s paranoia and violence - Why some sources describe her as a “God-fearer” sympathetic to Judaism - Her possible connection to figures like the Apostle Paul - The tragic and disturbing end of her life Was she a calculating villain… or a hidden ally to God’s people? This episode challenges the standard narrative and reveals how personal relationships shaped one of the most infamous reigns in history.

One of the most devastating effects of sin is spiritual blindness. Not only are we blind, but we're blind to our blindness. In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, The Gospel According to Mark, as Paul talks about the difference of being willfully blind and blindly willful.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.

Free Resource: Download the Day Alone with God Guide at emotionallyhealthy.org/sabbathMost leaders I know have a daily time with God. Very few ever stop long enough to actually hear Him.There's a difference between a longer quiet time and a day alone with God. One sustains you. The other re-orders you. And if you're honest, you know the difference—because you've felt what happens when your life gets disordered and nothing seems to bring it back into focus.In this episode, I'm walking you through how to spend a half day—or full day—alone with God, and why this practice may be the most important thing missing from your leadership right now. We'll look at how Jesus, Moses, Elijah, and Anna all built extended withdrawal into their lives with God—not as a luxury, but as a necessity.I'll also share a simple six-movement structure you can use right away, along with the fears and resistances that keep most leaders from ever doing this.Your leadership will only go as deep as your life with God. You cannot give what you don't have.This episode could change everything.Reserve your spot at our upcoming Global Leaders Conference.September 30 – October 1, 202614th St. Salvation Army, NYC(Live Spanish Translation available)Register Now: https://ehd.churchcenter.com/registrations/events/3421612Learn more about the EH Global Leader Conference 2026: emotionallyhealthy.org/conference

Trump said the WHCD shooter hated Christians. But when you actually read the manifesto, he cited the Bible, mentioning passages from Matthew. Mark. Luke. He thanked his church. He used Christian theology to justify trying to kill Trump officials. So was Trump wrong? Here's the thing: I don't think he was. And the reason WHY tells you everything about where the Left has taken Christianity in this country.------SPONSOR: American FinancingThe cost of living isn't just high — it's exhausting, with families relying on credit cards at 20%+ interest just to cover everyday essentials.
