When Christians step into politics, how much compromise comes with the territory? Can we preach about loving enemies on Sunday while voting to bomb them on Tuesday? Jake Doberenz, host of Christianity Without Compromise and author of the Smashing Idols newsletter, joins us to explore what happens when believers trade the cross for a ballot, and call it discipleship. From a high school election that may have been rigged to the very adult reality of war-making, political idolatry, the allure of power, we ask: what happens to our witness when we outsource sin to Caesar? Jake shares his journey from Republican Club president to his tug of war between faith and politics, highlighting the compromises often required in politics and presenting a firsthand look at how politics pulls Christians away from the teachings of Jesus. Craig and Jake dive deep into the inconsistencies that arise when Christians prioritize political allegiances over Jesus' teachings, particularly in hot-button issues like the Israel-Palestine conflict. Together they revisit 1 Samuel 8, Psalm 146, the Sermon on the Mount, and why Romans 12 must shape any reading of Romans 13. The heartbeat: No King but Christ is a reminder that Scripture consistently warns us against putting our trust in rulers and systems that thrive on coercion. Through it all, Craig and Jake call the church back to consistency, repentance, and allegiance to a Kingdom that doesn't run on violence or votes. Jake explains the mission behind his podcast, emphasizing the importance of addressing modern idols (including politics and Christian nationalism) that often distract from true faith. If you've ever wondered whether Christians can follow Jesus without compromise in a world obsessed with power, this episode will challenge you to rethink how you live out your loyalties. Because at the end of the day, there's only one political statement that matters: No King but Christ. Highlights & Takeaways Why “small” political compromises become soul-sized contradictions for disciples of Jesus. The high-school election story that exposed politics' deep messiness. How participation can cause real harm (especially when the rulers we empower unleash violence) 1 Samuel 8: Israel demanded a king. God forecast the taxes, conscription, and sorrow that followed. Psalm 146 as a Christian political manifesto: “Do not put your trust in princes.” Read Romans 13 through Romans 12 (enemy-love before empire-law) Why consistency (“love your neighbor/enemy”) draws seekers, while hypocrisy drives them away.
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. - Romans 12:21
For if their rejection means the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead? - Romans 11:15

20251012 930AMp DT Who are God's people? Reading: Romans 9: 1-29. The early church was a community of many different people and backgrounds, Jews and Gentiles who were brought together through their belief and faith in God and in Jesus who was crucified on the cross, died and rose again. Paul explains how God has been gathering his people, from the time of Abraham, Moses and Jesus. His people God has been true to his Word, to his promises and to his people. Speaker: David Tyndall
For the longest time, Paul's Epistle to the Romans has been used to justify misogyny, homophobia, eternal conscious torment, and blind allegiance to the State. But the truth is that the Apostle Paul never intended his letter to Jesus gatherings in Rome to teach any of those things. Authors Keith Giles and Matthew J. Distefano join Michael to discuss their new book that corrects these misunderstandings and illuminates the true meaning of Paul's theological masterpiece. Drawing on leading "Pauline" scholars, this content is a must-watch-listen-read for anyone who claims to align with Christ or is deconstructing conservative Christianity. the book, Reading Romans Right, here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1964252393 Keith and Matthew are also publishers at Quoir.

The Book of Romans in your King James Bible is one of the most-powerful pieces of scripture in the New Testament, a book that is heavily built on the writings of the prophet Isaiah and applied to Christians in the Church Age. Reading Romans can be like a really good Fourth of July fireworks display, it can also hit you like an IED and run you right off the road. Where you wind up depends on how you start, and we highly recommend a rightly divided and dispensational approach to navigating it.“To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 1:7 (KJB)On this episode of Rightly Dividing, we begin our look at the epistle of the apostle Paul to the Romans, and settle in to learn some hardcore, strong meat Bible doctrine. A study in Romans will show us the New Testament doctrines of salvation, redemption, sanctification, justification, predestination, adoption, regeneration, and glorification. Remember the Ethiopian eunuch from our study in the Book of Acts? He got saved with salvation by grace through faith by reading in the book of Isaiah. Another salient point to keep in mind that Paul is the apostle to the Romans, and not Peter as the Roman Catholic church falsely claims he is. There is no biblical record that Peter was ever in Rome.TONIGHT'S STUDY: Here in chapter 13, we read what Paul wants us to know about the government and their level of control over the citizenry. Paul is very clear, we are not working to bring in an earthly kingdom, neither are we rising up against our appointed rulers, though this chapter is oft used to promote both those things.
Romans is probably Paul's most well-known and read letter, but how is it supposed to be read? What is Paul's purpose for writing the letter? Have our interpretations of Romans been more influenced by Martin Luther and the Protestant Reformation than by Paul and the early church?Check out additional content on our website, thinkingtheologically.orgMusic:"Kid Kodi"Blue Dot Sessionswww.sessions.blue

We will also see how the Jews, temporarily, are the “enemies” of the church in order for us to get in. A misapplication of this chapter will produce the absurd anomaly of the ‘antisemitic Christian'. This is Part #11 in a series.

Justification means that the believers has the imparted righteousness of Jesus Christ, and therefore is justified in the sight of God. Paul pointes out repeatedly that the only thing we add to our salvation is the sin that made it necessary. This is Part #5 in a series.

Paul is taking no prisoners as he lays out the doctrine, so Catholic, Charismatics, Campbellites and Calvinists be forewarned, you're not going to like it much. But if you're a Bible believer, jump on in, the water's fine!
Today we welcome back Keith Giles, who previously shared his powerful faith and deconstruction journey in episode five. Keith recently wrote a book with his friend and co-owner of Quoir Publishing, Matthew Distefano, called “Reading Romans Right.” Leslie asks Keith, “Why would you write a book by that name? Are people actually reading Romans wrong?” Apparently, the answer is yes. Keith shares their groundbreaking work in theology that challenges traditional interpretations of the book of Romans. Leslie and Keith delve into the importance of questioning and re-examining long-held beliefs, offering fresh perspectives on spirituality and biblical texts. This insightful discussion encourages listeners to embrace a more loving and inclusive understanding of faith.Pick up your copy of Reading Romans Right HERE!

Bible Reading | Romans 13-14 by Joyful City Church
"For the longest time, Paul's Epistle to the Romans has been used to justify misogyny, homophobia, eternal conscious torment, and blind allegiance to the State. However, the truth is that the Apostle Paul never intended his letter to the Church in Rome to teach any of those things. That's why co-authors Keith Giles and Matthew J. Distefano have collaborated to correct these misunderstandings and illuminate the true meaning of Paul's theological masterpiece for today's Christian reader." In this engaging conversation, hosts Zack and Andy welcome Keith Giles and Matthew J. Distefano from Quoir Publishing to discuss their new book on Romans, "Reading Romans Right: Correcting Common Misreadings, Restoring Paul's Original Intent". They explore themes of faith, disagreement, and the importance of listener feedback in the podcasting world. The discussion delves into the misreadings of Romans, the nature of God's wrath, and the implications of eternal torment not being mentioned by Paul, challenging traditional interpretations and emphasizing the need for a more nuanced understanding of scripture. The conversation highlights the role of scholarship in making complex theological concepts accessible to a broader audience, ultimately aiming to foster a more compassionate and understanding approach to faith. In this conversation, the speakers delve into various theological perspectives, particularly focusing on the teachings of Paul and the interpretation of his letters. They explore the concept of God's wrath, the importance of understanding the historical context of scripture, and the role of women in the early church. The discussion also touches on the impact of video games on narrative engagement and how these experiences can parallel the exploration of faith and belief. Ultimately, the speakers aim to present a more nuanced understanding of Paul's message, emphasizing that it is rooted in good news rather than fear-based theology.Check out more from Keith and Matthew:https://quoir.com/Heretic Happy Hour PodcastWatch Keith debate "dr" James White HEREMatthew J.
