Welcome back to the first episode of the It Stands Written Podcast of 2026! After a short break for the holidays, Justin is back with Braden, Elijah, and Ernest to continue their discussion of dispensationalism and covenant theology. To start, they distinguish between theological covenants and biblical covenants. This preface sets the stage for the rest of their discussion, which will focus on biblical covenants. Next, they unpack terms like "bilateral" and "unilateral," making sure to give a clear definition of each. This leads to an overview of all the biblical covenants, with their conversation centering mostly around the Noahic Covenant. In this episode, you will learn the significance of the Noahic Covenant and its unilateral nature. They conclude the discussion by highlighting the beauty of the rainbow as a sign of God's mercy to all flesh on earth.

Thank you for joining us on this week’s episode of the It Stands Written Podcast. Today’s conversations focuses on two main theological systems - covenant theology and dispensationalism. We seek to offer a clear understanding of both schools of thought and the ways each approach’s and organizes the stories of Scripture. As we explain each perspective we look at how they read the Bible as a whole, while differing on things such as the continuity of Covenants or the relationship between God and Israel. As we approach the text we are sure to remind everyone that we must not impose our system onto the text but let God’s faithful Word reveal and shape itself so that we may submit ourselves under it. Grab your theological glasses as you engage in a deep conversation that has thousands of years of history behind it.

Listeners, welcome back to the It Stands Written Podcast! On this week's episode, Justin, Braden, Elijah, and Ernest are kicking off a new series on a topic pertinent to today's discussions of Israel and the Church: Dispensationalism and Covenant Theology. They begin by breaking down hermeneutics, a key aspect of doctrinal and scriptural interpretation. They distinguish between the different levels of doctrine--primary, secondary, and tertiary--making sure to highlight that the topic of this new series falls into the secondary level of doctrine. Next, they expand upon authorial intent and its importance in interpreting Scripture the way God intended for it to be interpreted. Once they have covered those bases, they get into the rules of hermeneutics, listing practical ways listeners can be sure that they are interpreting passages correctly. Lastly, they discuss the ways that readers should approach the Old and New Testaments by answering questions about how to handle the seemingly vast interpretational differences between them, focusing on the idea that the New Testament brings new divine revelation, and not a reinterpretation of the Old Testament. Buckle up for a rich theological conversation that is sure to give you clarity and confidence as you handle the Word of God.

This week's episode brings you a discussion on sinful logic that is not found in the world but rather in the church. The men look at different fallacies or dangerous lines of thinking that either keep Christians stuck in sin or justifying it. While we need to make a defense against those who oppose Christianity, we must not forget to bring a defense against our brothers or sisters who are in sin, with gentleness and reverence. Fallacious thinking includes examples such as believing that you had to sin, blaming God for not stopping you, doing what makes you happy, or thinking sin does not hurt anyone. This is not an opportunity to make ourselves feel holier than thou, but rather to pull our family from the fire and to cause them to see what their sin has blinded them to. We pray this episode can shed the light of God's promises on the things in the darkness.

In this penultimate episode of the Dismantling Sinful Logic series, the guys list and define different types of fallacies, including Red Herring, Straw Man, Ad Hominem, and Appeal to Tradition or Authority. They unpack why these fallacies are types of sinful logic and how Christians can easily spot and refute them. They bring up several Biblical and real-world examples of these fallacies, noting that they stem all the way back from Satan's sinful logic against Eve in the Garden of Eden. Most importantly, they analyze ways that Christians can refute this sinful logic by following the examples of Jesus and Paul, who were expert logicians. Follow along as they engage in a very practical conversation that is sure to help listeners handle logical fallacies in a God-honoring way. Fallacies are enticing and deceptive, so it is vital for Christians to be keenly aware of their dangers and equipped to dismantle them.

In this week's episode of our series titled Dismantling Sinful Logic, the guys bring you a discussion that will challenge your intellect and cause you to search the Scriptures deeper. God has placed certain laws of logic that we must be governed by. Our job is to look into those laws and use them to bring truth to ourselves and to those who are perishing. As light casts out darkness, truth must cast out the lies the world is believing. We look at laws such as the law of non-contradiction, double negation, the excluded middle, etc. We point out a plethora of such laws used throughout Scripture that form our theology and stop those who contradict it. Grab your Bible and put on your thinking cap for this week's episode.

On this week's episode of the It Stands Written Podcast, Justin, Braden, and Elijah dive into a conversation about logic and fallacies. They examine Scriptural examples of people using sinful logic against Jesus, who would perfectly refute it each time. Additionally, they bring up the origin of logical fallacies: Satan's tempting of Eve in the Garden. Like all things, God created logic and therefore intends for His people to live in accordance with it, though the Enemy tries to refute and twist this logic to lead believers astray. They bring listeners into a practical conversation of what logic is, how we are to operate from it in light of the fact that God created it, and how to help believers stand clearly on the truth and dismantle sinful lies.

Welcome back to another episode of the It Stands Written Podcast! On this week's episode, the dudes take on a topic that is near and dear to most Americans' hearts: free speech. They discuss the biblical ramifications of it, taking into consideration the laws and commands the Bible describes regarding speech. What if the freedom that our country holds so dear is actually unbiblical? They dare to broach this reality, touching on biblical principles that limit our speech and encourage censorship of unwholesome or unbiblical ideas. They bring all of this to a close with a practical examination of what our speech should look like in order to honor the Lord and let our words lead people closer to Christ. Ultimately, they emphasize the fact that we should not let our country's laws determine what our freedoms are, but instead, those freedoms come from God's Word. Buckle up and grab your Bible, because this topic has the potential to ruffle some patriotic feathers. Join the boys as they discuss how we can choose God over country.

Welcome back to this week’s episode of the It Stands Written podcast. The boys are back again to discuss any controversial topic: DEI and racism. As always, they approach this conversation from a biblical standpoint, seeking to bring the clarity of God’s truth to topics that are often described as complex and nuanced. They discuss what the Bible has to say about the human race and our interactions with each other, from Genesis to Revelation. Finally, they hone in on the sin of partiality: Christians are to treat everyone the same, with love and compassion, as there is no distinction in the eyes of the Lord.
