Church History and TheologyCHT | S2E9: Wolves Will AriseCHT | S2E9: Wolves Will Arise As Paul nears the end of his life and ministry, he warns the church leaders in Ephesus that false teachers (wolves) will arise from even among their own number. In this episode, we look into Paul's presentation to the church in Ephesus about how to identify them, avoid them, and keep watch over yourselves. False teachers wander away from revealed truth, true teachers stand firm. As do all Christians who keep watch over their faith.

His writings make up nearly half of the books of the New Testament and his leadership helped found the churches of Asia Minor, Greece, and Rome. He helped align the focus of missions, theology, and gentile relations in the Church of Jerusalem. Join the study this evening as we construct his story and timeline, appreciating the wisdom that has come down to us from Paul.

Both in the Invisible Church and the Visible Church. And wouldn't you know it? God is consistent everywhere He goes. The general idea is this: the only bottleneck of leadership ought to be on Christ; not on any other human or leader. Christ instituted a concept of multifocal leadership for the church: multiple apostles appointing multiple elders who enlist the help of multiple deacons. It is not a Christian habit to follow only one apostle or one pastor or leader.

In the end, as an extension of Christian fellowship, the study of Church History ought to result in humility. If it doesn't, that is cause for concern. Want to Support the Show?

Gospel of JohnDeep Dive #6: Ignatius - Writings of Church HistoryIn this episode, we go back to the earliest part of the 2nd century (100s) to listen to the Bishop of Antioch writing to a church in Smyrna as well as his letter to that church's bishop, a man named Polycarp.These are only two of the seven letters Ignatius wrote on his trip to Rome to be martyred. They are worthy of our attention, as are the other five (another episode).

And He said, you don't understand: that's the way gentiles think, but the servant is the greatest of all.Read the full show notes here.2023-01-181h 05The Big Book: Cover to Cover1 TimothyA short book full of practical theology, the first of the three Pastoral Epistles: 1 Timothy. Paul is telling the younger Timothy, pray—bring your requests and your thanksgiving—to God, pray for others and for your leaders, so that you might live a tranquil and quiet life with all godliness and dignity. That's fighting the good fight.

There was a massive microphone failure the night this was recorded that had massive screeches and static. Since this was before this show was ever a podcast, I never went back and checked. Sorry for any hearing damage! Thanks for those who brought it to my attention. While I had to cut some things out as a few sections were not recoverable, this new cut should be clean and about 99% of the original recording. - Timothy Easley2021-10-271h 28
