About 95% of Christians get this stuff wrong. Was Jesus extra-hard on the Pharisees? Are Pharisees basically the same as Sadducees? Were the Pharisees part of the crowd who put Jesus to death? The answer to all of those questions is actually “no.” There are a lot of misconceptions about the Pharisees, which we’re going to bring some clarity to on today’s episode. Something else we’ll discuss: where do Pharisees even come from? You see them all over the New Testament, but they’re never around in the Old Testament, so they must have sprung up sometime between the Testaments. But why? You’ll find all that out today on the Cross References podcast.

I love praying the promises of God. But before we do that, let’s make sure we’re praying things that God has actually promised. For example, just about every Christian has Jeremiah 29:11 somewhere in their house, but does it apply to us today? And can you really, as some say, name it and claim it? Maybe you’ve heard the phrase before that God said it, I believe it, and that settles it. But does that really settle it? You’ll find out the answer to all those questions today on the Cross References podcast.

Why did Paul write the book of Galatians. Are Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses fellow Christians, or do they believe a false gospel? And we know that salvation isn’t earned by our good works- but do we have to do good works to keep our salvation? You’ll find out today on the Cross References podcast.

Theologian Dr. Michael Brown says the only reason we like the prophets is that they are dead. If they were alive, we’d probably be trying to kill them. I hope that’s not true but it’s such a profound thought. Would we have listened to the Biblical prophets or would we have despised them if they were alive today? We’ll discuss that idea today on the Cross References Podcast.

Ezekiel’s big vision from God lasted four chapters, from number 8 through 11, and today we’re at the end. So how does it all wrap up?
