Does "Christian Nationalism" Go Against the Bible? Plus More Q&A
How do you respond when someone says your "Christian Nationalism" goes against everything Jesus taught in the Bible? And why are so many Christians preoccupied with LGBTQ+ issues--don't they have their own sinful behaviors to worry about? In this midweek episode, Frank responds to a listener email from Australia related to these and other hot-button issues by answering questions like:How does "Christian Nationalism" compare to secular internationalism?Why should the government care about marriage?Did Jesus believe in equity?Do you call out your own sin or just the sins of others?What are...

Can Christians Become Divine? A Surprising Doctrine Returns (w/ Paul Copan)
The doctrine of deification or theosis has been gaining interest among scholars for some time. Dr. Paul Copan is the editor of a new book that makes the case for a Protestant view of deification. This doctrine may sound abstract (or heretical), but when properly understood, it has deep historical roots in the Christian faith and deep transformative power in the lives of believers.

The Gospel in the Marketplace Paul Copan, Kenneth D Litwak
The book analyzes Paul's speech in Athens, described in Acts 17, as a model for presenting the Gospel in a pluralistic world. The author argues that Paul's speech in front of the Areopagus was a demonstration of how to communicate the Christian message in a contextualized way, adapting it to the worldview and values of Greek culture. He examines the intellectual and religious situation in Athens at the time of Paul, the different philosophical groups present (Epicureans, Stoics and Platonists) and the culture of intellectual debate in the city. The book also discusses the importance of understanding and responding to othe...

Episode 104: Dr. Paul Copan "Is God a Moral Monster?"
Renowned Christian philosopher and theologian Dr. Paul Copan joins us to explore our shared values and address the ethical questions people are faced with when reading the Bible. He discusses how modern readers often overlook the Torah’s revolutionary impact by viewing it solely through a contemporary lens, which strips it of historical context. Together, we examine the Mosaic laws in contrast to other ancient laws, like the Code of Hammurabi, revealing just how transformative the Torah was within its pagan surroundings. Dr. Copan shares his approach to interpreting morally challenging passages, applying a “charitability and Golden Rule” perspective that u...

#266 NAR and Progressive Christianity: Two Sides of the Same Coin?, with Paul Copan
Dr. Paul Copan joins the podcast to use his expertise to help me analyze some theological overlap I see between the movement of progressive Christianity and the New Apostolic Reformation. Progressive Christianity seeks to reframe Christianity by de-emphasizing personal salvation, biblical authority/innerancy, and by attempting to harmonize it with cultural sexual ethics. In the other hand, NAR emphasizes the miraculous and leans toward a prosperity gospel. How are both movements getting to their conclusions? Are they interpreting the Bible through the same erroneous lens? Join Alisa and Dr. Copan as they tackle this fascinating question.

This conversation draws on Paul's recent book, Is God a Vindictive Bully?

PAUL COPAN answers "Is the God of the Old Testament a Vindictive Bully?"
The world’s most outspoken atheist, Richard Dawkins, wrote in his book, The God Delusion, “The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.” No wonder there are some Christians today who want to distance themselves from that God and focus solely on the God of the New Testament and Jesus Christ.

Lesson 12: Ancient War Language
In this lesson, I am having you listen to a message by Paul Copan, who is Professor at Palm Beach Atlantic University. Copan wrote the book, Is God a Moral Monster. Copan will be calling us to think about the details in the text that should challenge our understanding of what 'history' narratives are. He will argue that we should read the Bible literarily and not literally. As we notice the details in the text, Copan argues we will find parallels to other ancient war texts that use similar language.

Is The God of The Old Testament a bloodthirsty, slave owning, narcissistic entity? Many skeptics of The Bible would argue that is. How could a good God command the genocide of the Canaanites? How could He regulate slavery instead of outright ban it? Does that mean God is ok with slavery? If so, how could we worship such a God; a God who thinks humans should be owned as property? And what about that strange episode where some youths mock Elijah and God calls two she-bears to attack them on Elijah’s behalf? Today’s guest is Paul C...

Here we discuss how it affects other doctrines and practices. You can read Paul Copan's (Christian) defense of the doctrine of creatio ex nihilo against the claim that it was a later development in church history here.
