How can an individual discover their meaning, purpose, standards, or moral values?

• Through science?
• Medicine?
• Justice?

What is the basis and foundation for truth and moral values?

There are certain questions that science cannot answer. Honest, affirming, and rewarding answers to these questions cannot be found in self-actualization, medical pursuit, jurisprudence, or scientific discovery.

There are questions that only God can answer.

There are 4 assurances that God gives us in His word that help to form our purpose and worldview.

In today's podcast, we address:

• The foundation of existentialism
• How God's Word can restore what existentialism, post-modernism, and deconstruction have stolen from us
• How can a person discover their meaning and purpose
• How can we know that God planned us ahead of time
• The foundational stones that set a standard for our lives

See you next Friday as I ask the question, "Do you love truth?"

If the foundations of a nation are destroyed, what can the righteous do?

Is what we're seeing in our culture today a fulfillment of Paul's words?

"The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. " 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

He was warning of a great danger, a dangerous malignancy in our culture today. There is a loss for the love of the truth, creating a great vacuum.

In today's podcast, we address:

• The history of existentialism
• How existentialism led to post-modernism and deconstruction
• The malignancy of relativism
• The progression of deception to delusion, and how we can know if we are in delusion
• Is there hope for our culture?

In today’s Foundational U with Dr. Dean, I pose the question about whether or not we're living in the final seconds of God's time clock here on earth and how the Mahdi fits in with this plan.

This is an important question because the answer reveals to us how seriously we are considering what we're seeing in the world today and how we form our beliefs about what is happening in the Middle East.

God told us ahead of time what would happen before the rapture of the church takes place because He wants us to be able to discern the times and seasons in which we are living.

In today's podcast, we address:

• How we see the Prince of Persia mentioned in the book of Daniel at work today
• Is there a spirit behind what is going on in the Middle East?
• The significance of the 70 weeks we see in Daniel 9 and Matthew 24:15-27
• Who is "the beast" and the "little horn" talked about in the book of Revelation
• What role does the Mahdi play in what we see in Scripture

Tune in again next Friday for the next episode of Foundational U with Dr. Dean.

In today’s Foundational U with Dr. Dean, I examine the question, "Did the teachings of Jesus Christ or last-day prophesies change or nullify the covenant God made with Abraham and his descendants"?

"And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you." Genesis 17:7

In today's podcast, we address:

• The significance of the role of Israel in end-times prophecy
• How the restoration of the State of Israel in 1949 is seen in Scripture
• The significance of the Jewish people in the last days
• How and why God's promise to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is eternal
• How the rising antisemitism we see today is a fulfillment of biblical prophecy

Tune in again next Friday for the next episode of Foundational U with Dr. Dean.

In today’s Foundational U with Dr. Dean, I answer the question, "Has the Christian church replaced Israel and the Jewish People"?

For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches. And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.

Romans 11:16-18

This is the core issue with Replacement Theology.

We examine:

• How early Church Fathers failed to recognize themselves as grafted in.
• What happens when we embrace Replacement Theology?
• What does it mean when God said that He would scatter His people among the nations?
• Does the New Covenant in Christ replace or fulfill the Old Covenant?

Tune in again next Friday for the next episode as we look at why Replacement Theology and cessationism aren't consistent with all of Scripture.

In today’s Foundational U with Dr. Dean, look at the statements of Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson that the Jews are pagan gypsies and Ashkenazi Jews, and not descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

We examine:

• What is the historical background and biblical record of these claims?
• Does scientific testing confirm Owens' and Carlson's claims?
• Do Jews worship Ba'al and sacrifice their children?
• If these claims are false, what are their origins?

Tune in again next Friday for the next episode as we answer the question, “Did the church replace the nation of Israel and the Jewish people?”
