The familiar story of Jesus' nighttime conversation with the Pharisaic leader, Nicodemus, centers on the “birth from above,” a birth that allows us both to see and enter the Kingdom of God. Audible whispers of the One True God as Triune echo throughout the conversational exchange. Although the Church's teaching on the Trinity is so deeply rooted in the Scriptures and the deepest theological reflections of the Church, and although trinitarian teaching is one of the most foundational and distinctive teachings of the Christian faith, it is a doctrine that, while surely acknowledged by orthodox believers, is avoided and neglected. The doctrine of the Trinity is thought to be merely abstract and philosophical, largely detached from day-to-day living. But trinitarian thought is at the center of God's Being, as the God who “loves [us] and gave himself for [us]“ (Gal 2:20). God is love [agape]” (1 John 4:7), and agape love requires an “Other” to whom and for whom One offers Oneself in self-giving, humble, Other-centered service. This God of eternal, loving, communion is the One who gives us new birth, into the kingdom of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and into a new family of brothers and sisters in Messiah Jesus. The image associated with this podcast is "Jesus and Nicodemus (a study)" by Henry Ossawa Tanner.

We truly exist only within the context of relationship. Typically, people who are toxic, psychopathic or sociopathic are always those who cannot maintain or sustain relationships. They run from them. These people are usually loners or make all relating with them very difficult. The origin of most mental illness is loneliness. One of the greatest causes of grief for humanity (or disease) is disconnection. When we separate ourselves from others, we become sick and toxic…even ungodly. There is more to relational connectedness than we understand and this is why God elevates relationship to such a high level. Perichoresis is the divine dance of the Godhead that is fully balanced and completely vulnerable intimate relationship.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/matthew-hester/support

Dr. C. Baxter Kruger is a world-renowned theologian who specializes in his knowledge of the Trinity and the idea of no separation from God. Growing up in the Bible Belt, Baxter says he always knew there was more to this gospel he grew up with and the missing piece was the relationship between the Trinity. Dr. Kruger has gone on to write many books, but today we talk about the idea that union with Christ is the most important aspect of the human condition.

In this episode, we include Lane Tipton's address from our 2022 Theology Conference. Dr. Tipton's address was titled, "Perichoresis, Encoronation, and Ascension: Christology in (the) Light of Endoxation."

Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley continue their discussion on the doctrine of God by talking about God the Father.Questions Covered in This Episode:Continuing the discussion from our last episode, let's talk about the economic trinity and immanent trinity.When we refer to God the Father, we refer to him as the first person of the Godhead: What does that mean?Who created God the Father?From where and when has God the Father come?What does it mean to say that God is eternally unbegotten?How is God the Father related to God the Son and God the Spirit?Helpful Definitions:God Ad Extra / Economic Trinity: What God Does.A view of the Trinity focused on God in the history of redemption, or the functional acts (economies) of the Godhead in the creation and salvation of the world; this perspective is distinguished from that of the immanent Trinity.God Ad Intra / Immanent Trinity: Who God is.The view that centers on the Trinity in and of Himself, or the internal relations between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as present (immanent) only to Himself (c.f. Jn 1:1-2,18); this perspective is distinguished from that of the economic Trinity. Eternally Unbegotten: The Father's unique attribute in relation to the Son and the Spirit: The Father is the first origin of all things and without origin himself. All things are from the Father, through the Son, and by the Spirit.Perichoresis (περιχώρησις): The mutual relationship between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Resources Mentioned in This Episode:“Delighting in the Trinity” by Michael ReevesRomans 8:15, Hebrews 12:6Amazon affiliate links are used where appropriate.

Here's the link I told you about, for searching on my site for answers to your questions. HERE’S my video on the unforgivable sin. HERE’S my video on how atheist scholar, Bart Ehrman, misleads millions. My goal is to help you on the road to thinking biblically about everything. Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 0:00 - Intro 0:39 {Did Jesus Contradict Himself?} Why would Jesus instruct us to let our good works be seen by others (Matthew 5:16) if He also instructed us to do our good works in secret (Matthew 6:1-4)? Am I misunderstanding something? 12:19 {Do Some People Get More Grace?} Romans 5:2 says we stand on grace. In Acts 4:33, it says great grace was upon them all. Does that mean some people have more grace? I’ve heard you say we don't get grace little by little. 18:10 {If You’ve Forgotten a Promise to God} What do you do when you’ve made a promise to God and either forget the specifics of it or forget you’ve made it altogether? 20:58 {Should We Fear Future Events?} What is a healthy way to look at the future with all the disasters in Revelation? I have trouble building up my life without fearing everything will change soon, for the worse. 25:51 {Responding to Pro-Choice Thinking} How can we respond to someone who uses, “A creator has the right to do whatever they want with their own creation” as a pro-choice argument? 30:54 {About “Holy Water” or “Blessed” Objects} A local street preacher uses holy water on the ground, which he says keeps demonic activity from disrupting his preaching. I haven't seen Scripture support this. Is it biblical? 36:18 {About the Millennial Kingdom} If God is eternal and He knows everything from the beginning to the end, then why does He set up a 1000 year Millennium Kingdom? What are the reasons for this, biblically? 42:18 {Perichoresis vs. Modalism} Can you explain the difference between the concepts of perichoresis and modalism? They seem to be very similar ideas on the surface. 46:06 {About Bart Ehrman’s Teachings & Tactics} You have talked about Dr. Bart Ehrman (ex: your “Atheist Scholar Misleads Millions Of People” video). Does he also use these "techniques" on his professional peers? 51:27 {Trusting God when He Seems Silent} What practical steps do you do to trust in the Lord? I frequently have difficulty trusting Him during difficult times, especially when He doesn’t seem to be answering prayer. 59:20 {Were the Nazis Appointed by God?} Were the Nazis as a government authority "appointed by God" according to Romans 13? 1:03:39 {Why did God Send Jacob to Egypt?} In Genesis 12:10, Abraham goes to Egypt. That decision is considered by many as disobedience to God. If going to Egypt is related to a bad decision, why is it that later, God sent Jacob to Egypt? 1:06:30 {Are We Dead to Sin, or Sold Under It?} Why does Paul say "…reckon ye yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God through Christ Jesus our Lord" in Romans 6:11, yet in Romans 7:14, he says, "…but I am carnal, sold under sin"? 1:10:05 {Traditional Preferences over Biblical Theology?} I’m an ex-Catholic, but I’m getting pulled back in. I don’t know why, but I just like praying in Latin, the Rosary, praying to saints, and using scripted prayers because I don’t know how to pray on my own. 1:18:15 {How to Understand the Bible} What is your general advice on understanding Bible verses that we don't understand? 1

Believers are free & awakening to being & serving as Image-Bearers.

Dan Hewett speaking at Joyland Church

Prayer is communion with God, becoming one with Him. As we pray, He indwells us and we indwell Him. Becoming All Fire is a series on prayer. During the season of Epiphany, we want the manifestation of Christ in our lives. Prayer is one of the means of acquiring the manifestation.
