“Will some people be sent to burn in the fire of Hell when they die? Did religion get that right or does the bible have something different to say?
In today’s podcast and post, I continue to give you Hell in our series where we explore what the bible really says about the subject..
Join me now as I prove that the Lake of Fire and the All-Consuming Fire may not be not different destinations, but different reactions to the same experience of meeting God.
“Have you noticed those who are most certain that “other” people are going to Hell, are the religious types who seek to get away from everybody else?”
In today’s podcast and post, I add more layers to this biblical exploration of Hell and reveal that Hell is not really about punishing the naughty.
Join me now as I show you the two biggest examples that a person need not die in order to live in Hell.
“Does each religion have its own god? Is one religion better than another? Which God can beat up all the other gods?”
These questions are common in the minds of those who do not know the Bible. In today’s podcast and post we continue our series by examining the assumptions about Hell which fuel our competitive religions.
Join me now as we see beyond the claims that picking the right religion is the only way to God, and discover the only thing that has ever allowed any human to know anything about their Maker, and why religion hates it so much.
“Who gave you your definition of Hell? If it came from Institutional Religion, then it’s likely very different than the teachings of the bible.
In today’s podcast and post we continue our series as I reveal how Church history, fiction and Hollywood have created a version of Hell that is irresistible to economies of religion. By displacing Hell solely to another dimension after we die, Hell’s captivity keeps expanding through invisibility.
Join me now as I reveal the Hell Jesus taught about, and how that helps us see how our modern assumptions about Hell, are the most common forms of captivity in it.
“Are you or someone you know obsessed with Hell? The truth might surprise you.
In today’s podcast and post I introduce a new series on Hell which will extract it from religious and cultural frameworks and will allow us to see just how obsessed with Hell we actually are.
Join me now as we see beyond the mythological and follow the stream back to the headwaters of a universal influence of which we just won’t let go.
“Are you familiar with saying: “A thorn in the flesh?” How well do you understand this idea?
In today’s podcast and post I am going to give you not only the backstory behind Paul’s famous trope, but I will unpack its theological implications and why it’s important for those being liberated from religious overreach.
Join me now as we discover that the thorn is not an object, but a subject dispatched by love to keep us close to God.
“Are you under the assumption that you ARE your body? Is our body just a randomly generated meat suit?
In today’s podcast and post, I will compare the scientific view to the biblical view of our bodies, and reveal how science’s broken view led our world into a very confusing and disorienting place.
Join me now as we see beyond our body and get a glimpse of the true Life shining through them, etching itself into every corner of our human experience.
“Do you believe pastors and clergy should be paid? Who really benefits from a church’s non-profit tax status?
In today’s podcast and post I will bring up a “Question from Corinth” that the modern church largely ignores, and is a portal through which parishioners can see the contrast between the business of religion, and a community of faith.
Join me now as we see beyond those paid to share the gospel, and discover how this cultural trend establishes a world for unbelief.
“Have you ever felt like no matter what you try, you never seem to obtain the life and the freedom for which you hope? There may be a reason for this.
In today’s podcast and post, I begin a series entitled “Questions from Corinth” with a look at the story of the Hebrews who “died in the wilderness.”
Join me now as we see beyond those who possess an unlived life, and why this type of captivity is so common in our world today, and why this indicates that our condition is beyond slumber and requires far more than being “woke.”
“How well do we really know ourselves? Why do you suppose our world is so focused on “identity” while it simultaneously divorces itself from God?”
In today’s podcast and post I will show how competitive religions can highjack our discovery of God and self, and why each insists that their way is the only true way.
Join me now as we discover how Christ following is subversive to institutional power, and why the message of the Bible reveals that salvation is not our over-identification with religion, but the self who is discovered by our liberation from it.
