Apologetics from the Attic

In this episode we continue our study of the book of Romans by looking at the word "propitiation" in 3:25. We look at the day of atonement in Leviticus 16 and the sin of the Israelites in Numbers 25 to explain that atonement means to turn away wrath, and propitiation means a wrath absorbing subsititue.

In this episode we continue our verse by verse study of the book of Romans. We talk about the concept of righteousness and justification by faith. We talk about how it is apart from law, and talk about grace and redemption.

In this live recorded episode, we continue our verse by verse study of the book of Romans. We go over how Paul wraps up his section on convincing all that they are under the wrath of God because of their sin. We go over "God's indictment" against humanity and prepare ourselves to hear the glorious Gospel of Justification by faith, in Romans 3:21.

In this recording of a live broadcast (even though their weren't any live viewers or comments! LOL) we cover 2:12-3:9, and discuss how Paul strips the Jews of any claim they have to being righteous and acceptable to God becuase they posses the law and have circumcision. Paul is stripping us of any righteousness we think we have so that we will see our need for the imputed righteousness of Christ, the Righteousness "apart from law".

In this recording of a live episode, we discuss the Asbury revival. I go over some of the good things about it and some of my concerns. We also look at how different parts of the body of Christ need to contribute to the health of the whole, and how the charismatic wing of the Church has something of value to offer us. We also look at 2 passages, Deuternonomy 13 and Acts 3, and show how the message that follows a sign and wonder is more important than the sign or wonder. Enjoy.

In this episode, recorded live, we continue our study of the book of Romans. We see how Paul switches to 2nd person pronouns to accuse the jews and pagan moralists of hypocrisy and judgmentalism. We discuss how humans justify themselves by pointing out the sins of others, instead of looking at their own sins. And then we dive deep into the purpose and function of the law, and how both Jesus and Paul taught how the law is meant to expose our sin and drive us to Christ!

In this livestreamed episode, Matt Salih comes on the broadcast to discuss the problem of evil and how a Calvinist would handle it. He asks me a hypothetical question about a woman who was abused by her husband...and I give my response. Then we look at a few passages of scripture on the topic.

In this Livestreamed episode of AFA, we were supposed to have Matt Salih on to discuss how calvinism responds to someone who has suffered evil at the hands of another. But unfortunately Matt had to cancel...but we went ahead and did the episode anyway. I played a clip of Matt's questions he asked on Facebook live and then we looked at several scriptures and took some live questions and comments.

In this episode, I announce the (hopefully) return of regular content on the Apologetics from the Attic broadcast. I go over what's been going on in my world and we return to some foundational things that underlie the approach of this podcast and what we are going to cover moving forward.

In this long episode (over two hours) I record my response to a public challenge issued by Drew and Eric over at the Provisionist Perspective channel, to respond to their exegesis of Ephesians 1:1-14. I play their entire walk through of verses 1-14 and attempt to understand them in their own words and give a critique of their exegesis, as well as flag up points of agreement. I'll be waiting for my extra large T-Shirt in the mail!
