Vantage Point with Pastor HenryBible Study: Were there six literal or spiritual days of creation?In an engaging podcast episode, I welcomed Pastors Michael Chilcott and Peter Ikpugha to debate whether the Earth was created in six literal days or six spiritual periods, as described in Genesis 1. The discussion was lively, filled with biblical exposition and occasional fiery exchanges. Pastor Chilcott defended a literal 24-hour-day view, citing the Hebrew yom and Exodus 20:11, which ties the creation week to the Sabbath. He argued that a literal reading upholds Scripture’s authority, cautioning against allegorical interpretations. Pastor Ikpugha, however, proposed that the “days” could symbolize longer epochs, referencing Psalm 90:4 and the universe’s vast age. He suggested Genesis...2025-04-1751 minBehind the HarvestThe Final Week of Jesus: The Empty TombWas the tomb of Jesus truly empty on the third day?

When the prophecy failed, the fallout was massive, leading to despair, denial, and the birth of new religious movements. But this isn’t just a history lesson—it’s a psychological case study on belief, brainwashing, and cognitive dissonance. Why do people double down on failed prophecies...2025-03-1611 minThinking Out LoudHow should a Christian think about Doubt?In this episode, Nathan and Cameron discuss if faith is really the opposite of doubt.

How can this be reconciled with the concept of an all-powerful, benevolent deity—or even with a universe that is just and meaningful?We explore the unsettling paradox that while every ideology—whether religious, political, or philosophical—strives to justify human suffering for a greater cause, the deaths of children remain uniquely tragic, universally unjustifiable, and deeply troubling.

Not only do I receive that love, but everyone else does, too. We can shed fear, superiority, and competition - and experience the death of our false self.
In stage 8, we return to “luminous darkness” — we don’t have the answers, but instead of being confused, we are at peace. Those with a tendency towards certainty can have a difficult time in this stage. Stage 8 can be described as a sensation of gentl...2018-12-1954 min

Stage 4 offers a wonderful experience of self-discovery. We get to immerse ourselves in religions and practices that open up personal realizations. The limitation of this stage, though, is that we live in a world consisting of other people. Our personal enlightenment is only as useful as it moves us to...2018-11-3028 min
