Conversing with Mark LabbertonReading Revelation Responsibly, with Michael GormanWhat is the book of Revelation really about? For ages, it has been the source of sensationalism, idolatry, confusion, and end-times predictions. But at its root, it is about the power and worship of the Lamb who was slain. Biblical scholar Michael J. Gorman joins Mark Labberton to explore how Christians can read the book of Revelation with wisdom, faith, and hope rather than fear or sensationalism. Drawing from his book Reading Revelation Responsibly: Uncivil Worship and Witness—Following the Lamb into the New Creation, Gorman offers a reorientation to Revelation's central vision: worshipping the Lamb, resisting id...

Become New with John OrtbergThe Antichrist Explained: What the Bible Really SaysWhat does the Bible actually say about the Antichrist, Armageddon, and the end times? In this episode, John Ortberg clears away the clutter of speculation—like presidential “666” theories, modern rapture charts, or end-times guessing games—and returns us to the words of Scripture itself. Drawing from 1 John, Revelation, and the prophets, John shows how terms like “Antichrist” and “tribulation” were meant for real people facing real suffering, not just future predictions. Along the way, you’ll hear insights from Bruce Metzger’s Breaking the Code and Dallas Willard’s vision of our eternal destiny—not endless bureaucracy, but creative life with Christ. Instea...

Does the Bible say THAT?!?SPECIAL: Thinking About the Bible Part 1: Writings and CanonizationOn this special episode, host Dave Lester discusses the religious impulse in humanity to create sacred Scriptures (documents that human beings for a very long time have considered inspired by God).

(2) “The New Testament — Its Background, Growth, and Content,” by Bruce Metzger.
(3) “Losing Faith in Faith” by Dan Barker.
(4) In the New Testament period a heresy known as GNOSTICISM began to develop. This term covered a varety of sects that advocated numerous aberrant ideas totally at variance with biblical truth.
(5) A subcategory of Gnosticism believed Jesus was not a real, flesh-and-blood human being; he merely “appeared” to be. He had some sort of PHANTOM BODY, so much so that He did not leave trac...

James E. Snapp is in my opinion THE MOST underrated New Testament knower there is!
While being a pastor at Curtisville Christian Church, he also spends time looking through ancient N.T. manuscripts.
This session i was honored to have a masterclass from him about the Ending of Mark and The Pericope Adulterae.
Many scholars like Bruce Metzger, Daniel Wallace & Bart Erhman have put statements out into the world; that is completely misleading by the pieces of evidence that Dr. Snapp has found!

This time we’ll consider two uncorrected corruptions, including the long ending on Mark (16.9-20) and the passage about the adulterous woman that Jesus saves (John 7.53-8.11). Although these two texts are not found in the earliest and best manuscripts and translators have known this for decades, they continue to include them in virtually all English translations. What’s going on here? In this episode you’ll learn the textual basis for both passages and the reasons why textual scholars don’t accept their authenticity.

In each of these cases scribes have altered the text of scripture and we have the manuscript evidence to show exactly what happened.

In this episode you’ll learn about the rich and important history of how our understanding of the Greek New Testament changed over the last five hundred years.

With the New Testament we can’t argue for a reliable transmission on the basis of meticulous Hebrew scribes. More often, especially early on, the Christian scribes focused more on quantity than quality so they could get the word out as quickly as possible. However, the sheer number of manuscripts that survived and the relatively early date of several ensure that we can employ a range of strategies to recover the original text with 99.5% accuracy. In fact, when we compare the New Testament to other ancient literature it is almost embarrassing how much be...
