In this episode we begin a short series on exploring how we should biblically understand the church and Israel. We start out by gaining the New Testament perspective, drawing from Paul's words in Ephesians 2:11-22, where he explains what God's intention is for both Jews and Gentiles.

In this episode we explore Psalm 2, where we talk about the rebellion of man in general and government rulers in particular; the rulership of Jesus Christ despite the world's desire to the contrary; and we talk about how rulers in government can be ones who submit to the lordship of Christ through the gospel.
In this episode, we explore the threefold question from our Lord to the apostle Peter: "Do you love me?" We'll talk about what is being accomplished in asking these questions, where Peter's heart was in all of this, and what this says about how God shows grace to His followers, even when they have previously messed up.

In the last chapter of the Gospel of John, we see an apostle Peter who may be struggling with doubt in his effectiveness for the Lord and who thus decides to go back to his prior career of fishing. But the Lord has other plans for him. In this episode we begin to talk about how Jesus deals with him to bring him back to the proper path.

Many skeptics through the years who have doubted the reliability of the Bible have aimed their criticisms at the resurrection narratives in the four New Testament Gospels, saying that they are filled with too many contradictions and inconsistencies. But is this charge valid? In this episode, I take the time to harmonize the resurrection narrative in the four Gospel accounts and explain how the things that critics call contradiction...
In this episode, we talk about the purpose of John's Gospel, which John himself lays out in John 20:30-31, and how this stated purpose is connected to what we have just seen regarding Jesus' appearance to Thomas.

The apostle Thomas is mostly known for his doubt/unbelief in Jesus' resurrection. But while John 20 catalogs Thomas' initial refusal to believe, what do we learn about Christ in His specific appearance and confrontation to Thomas? We will discuss that and more on this episode.

In this episode we examine Jesus' resurrection day appearance to His disciples in John 20, doing comparison work with Luke 24, and learn the significance of His resurrection in light of what He would commission His disciples to do.

In our continued look at John 20 and the resurrection of Christ, we consider the empty tomb from the perspective of Mary Magdalene, and talk about her encounter with the angels, Jesus Himself, and the significance of it all.

In this episode we begin to look at John 20 and talk about the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the empty tomb. Though the empty tomb is a major evidence of the resurrection of Christ, John uniquely provides an additional piece of evidence that drives this truth home even more. Listen to learn what that is.

In this episode we take a break from our study of the book of John and talk about the benefits of studying eschatology (the study of last things), and particularly the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21). I talk about this subject in connection to my book, Signs of the End: What Jesus Taught His Disciples in the Olivet Discourse, and take you on a tour of the different sections of the discourse, talking about the challe...
It goes without saying that you can't have a resurrection if there is no death. For this reason, when it comes to the resurrection of Christ from the grave, He had to have died. The apostle John saw it as important to establish the actual death of Christ by his own witness testimony, as well as by the sovereign fulfillment of Old Testament Scriptures. This is what we explore in this episode in John 19.
This episode explores John's Gospel narrative of the crucifixion of Christ: who was there, what went down, the emotions of the day, and its overall significance.

As Jesus comes closer to the cross, we see Pontius Pilate trying to save Jesus' life. But does this mean that his act was noble and praiseworthy? No! In this episode we talk about the evil things that Pilate did that contributed to Jesus being sentenced to His death, and how, even in the midst of such evil, God's sovereignty was still at play.
In this episode we continue our discussion of Jesus' appearance before Pilate, as well as the things surrounding Pilate's strategic use of the Passover custom of prisoner release, and the crowd's desire to release the murderer Barabbas.

What were some of the things that the Jews accused Jesus of before Pontius Pilate? And what is Pilate's background that provides us with context for what we see from him as the Jews present Jesus to him? In this episode we answer these questions as we lay the foundation for Jesus' dialogue with Jesus as well as what actions are taken thereafter.
This episode dives into the juxtaposed accounts of Jesus' face-to-face encounter with Annas after His arrest, and Peter's denial of the Lord Jesus Christ three times. Regarding the denial, what are the surrounding circumstances of that incident? What does this incident tell us about Peter? And how does the comparison between Jesus' situation and Peter's situation inform us about the reality of the scene?
When it comes to the arrest of Jesus Christ, we may not realize just how much God's sovereignty shows forth in the account itself. In this episode, we start to look at John 18 and talk about how God was in complete control at His arrest, and what He communicated, both in His words and actions, to show that this was all a voluntary giving of Himself for our sake.
As we prepare to enter into studying John 18 and 19, this episode highlights the substitutionary atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ, what it accomplished, and what it means. The main text that we explore comes from Romans 3.
