13 MAR 2025 · Longing for Eden is at the core of all of our desires. In Eden, mankind had perfect government, perfect fellowship, and perfect provision. Humanity was made for the perfection of Eden and nothing short of that perfection will ever satisfy us. But since we are subject to the pride of our fallen state, all of us, religious AND atheist, seek to recreate that perfection WITHOUT God. Our efforts and failure to do so is the story of our tragic human history. Only by turning to God can we truly reclaim our deepest longing. In this week’s podcast:
- What we lost when we fell from Eden
- How we try to replace paradise
- Why we desire to regain Eden without God
- How the judgment and curses of Original Sin are loving and merciful
- Why natural disasters CANNOT be blamed on God

10 MAR 2025 · The Forbidden fruit was the catalyst for Original sin, death, and the curses God placed on Adam, Eve, and the Nachash (serpent). But what was the forbidden fruit? Was it an apple or a fig (short answer: neither). And why did eating it give Adam and Eve knowledge of good and evil? Also, why did God render the specific judgments of Genesis 3, and what are the deeper meanings? We’ll address those topics on this week’s podcast…

6 MAR 2025 · Does God NEED evil? That question may sound sacrilegious, but when you think about it, the entire Biblical plan of redemption was predicated on the fall of man and the subsequent plan for salvation (through which God showed us His love in the form of the sacrifice of His Son). If there were no evil, there’d be no sin and no need for salvation. So is “evil” a necessary part of God’s plan? The obvious answer is no. In this podcast, I tell you why evil isn’t necessary, as well as the most effective way to fight evil (it’s probably not what you think…)

28 FEB 2025 · To create is good, to destroy is evil. When Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, they obviously gained knowledge of good and evil. But what does that mean? Our definitions of good and evil are often subjective and contradictory. The Bible links “good” to creation, and “evil” to destruction. But the Bible also says that God can do evil (destruction). How can that be if God is good. As with most topics, we’ll need to look a little deeper to get the full definition. In this week’s podcast:
- How our subjective definitions of good and evil can actually make Hitler “good”
- How the Bible defines “good”
- The true definition of Evil
- Why Evil can’t exist on it’s own
- What does the Bible mean when it says God does “evil”?
- How God’s “evil” actually leads to long term Good
- How Satan’s “good” leads to long term Evil
- What is dualism and why to evil forces embrace it?

27 FEB 2025 · Blood is the conduit of physical life according to the Bible. Jesus also stated that words (thoughts) are the source of spiritual life. We are born dead spiritually and we are dying physically because the blood and thoughts that are meant to nourish and repair us are corrupted due to our imperfect fellowship with God. But if we had access to perfect blood and perfect thoughts, we could “cure death” and have eternal life! In this week’s podcast:
How is blood essential to life?
Why it’s so important to God (and our spiritual enemies)
How WORDS are essential to spiritual life and repair
The true source of eternal life

24 FEB 2025 · Being alive has to be more than just “not being dead”. Jesus said that He would make you “more alive” and give you abundant life. Those ideas would be impossible if life and death were just binary states of being. So what are the Biblical definitions of life and death? If eating the forbidden fruit meant death, then why didn’t Adam and Eve drop dead right after they ate it? In this week’s podcast:
- The definition of death
- Why death doesn’t actually exist on its own
- The definition of life
- How life is qualitative, NOT quantitative
- How we were designed NOT to die
- Why the REAL cause of death is separation from God

21 FEB 2025 · Hypocrisy from religious Christians is one of the main reasons that unbelievers are reluctant to embrace the Faith. Tragically, that hypocrisy comes from religious people trying (and failing) to be “nicer” than Jesus!! These attempts not only warp the image of Christians, they corrupt the message of the Gospels, AND they result in Idolatry! In this week’s podcast:
- The root of religious hypocrisy.
- How religion robbed us of God’s true Name.
- Why the “Jesus” promoted by religious people bears no resemblance to the Jesus in the Bible.
- What was Jesus REALLY like?
- How religious Christians damage themselves and others by trying to be “nice”.
- Why do God’s laws and commandments sound religious?

19 FEB 2025 · Brain damage is the hallmark of a highly religious thought process – and I’m not just speaking figuratively. Religion can cause actual physical damage to the chemical receptors in your mind! And don’t think you’re immune to this malady if you’re secular. ALL people practice religion to varying degrees because we ALL promote the ideas of absolute righteousness and justice (GOD) in our pursuits (and of course trying to be right and just WITHOUT God is the definition of religion). In this week’s podcast:
- What the Bible means when it references “religion”
- Why James 1:27 actually validates the true definition of religion
- How unbelievers prove they believe in God when they pursue social causes
- A brief tangent on the history of global warming/climate change
- Examples of secular “religions”
- How the religious thought process causes cascading brain damage

17 FEB 2025 · Religious acts you perform are not about God. They are actually all about YOU! God hates religion because religion is based on pride. When Jesus was on earth, the only people He had a problem with were the religious peddlers (Pharisees). So what is religion? Why do we perform it? And why do we think it’s from God? In this week’s podcast:
- The definition of religion
- The “benevolent” reason why we get religious
- Why you can’t get to heaven by “being good”
- How religion is self-delusion
- When you are religious, you are trying to be superior to God
- Why do many Christians practice religion?

14 FEB 2025 · Our unconscious mind makes us feel guilt when we do an injustice. We don’t like feeling guilt, so we seek some kind of justification in order to settle the guilt-debt. But did you know that this thought process demonstrates God’s mercy for our sins? In this week’s podcast:
- What is Justification and why do we need it?
- Why do we feel guilt?
- How our subconscious mind is like a computer
- Do you justify God, or yourself?
- Why the guilt/justify cycle is proof of God’s mercy
- The WORST form of justification
