Join us for Part 11 of our series, "Why is THAT in the Bible?" where we take a little different turn and look at what ISN'T in the Bible about the birth of Christ that so many of us assume is! What exactly was the Inn that had no room for Mary and Joseph? Did the three kings follow the star all the way to Bethlehem? What does the Bible really tell us about these "kings?" Was it really a silent night, and did the baby Jesus really not cry? Join us as we have some fun looking at some of the fake news of the Christmas story!

WARNING!! This episode contains mature subject matter that may not be appropriate for children.

In this episode, we delve into another head-scratching passage of Scripture In fact, this is one of the most intriguing, debated, and even aggrandized parts of Scripture there is - Genesis 6:1-8, which speaks of the sons of God, daughters of man, and the Nephilim. Who are the sons of God? Are they pagan royalty? Demon-possessed men? Men from the Godly line? Demons? Who are the daughters of man?  Peasants? Women from the ungodly line? Or are they all human women? And how about the Nephilim?  Are they giants? Are they the offspring of the sons of God and daughters of man? Are they a hybrid race of demons and humans? Or are they something else?

Join us as we break the text down and present the most biblically credible arguments!

In this episode, we delve into the tiny book of Philemon where Paul is writing a letter to his friend, Philemon, urging him to forgive and free his runaway slave, Onesimus. 

This letter raises all sorts of questions: How can a letter asking for the release of a runaway slave possibly have application for us? Who was Onesimus that Paul got personally involved in his situation? Why does Philemon, a Christian, own slaves? Since Paul never actually condemns slavery in the letter, does Paul and God condone slavery? And, of course, why is this book in the Bible?!

God often had Old Testament Prophets do difficult, and even bizarre, things. And nowhere do we see that more than with the Prophet Ezekiel. In this episode, we delve into a very odd passage where God tells Ezekiel to tell the exiles of Judah in Babylon about the forthcoming siege of Jerusalem and the dire consequences the people will face, by first, performing dramatic theater for the people, then by lying on the ground on either of his sides while tied up in ropes, and then by drinking a small amount of water, and baking an unusual cake of bread over human excrement!  

Why would God have Ezekiel do these things and use such bizarre methods to give the people His message? What does this passage tell us about prophets? What does this passage have to do with us today? And finally, why is this passage in the Bible?!

Did you ever really want something and then you got it only to realize you may have been better off without it? In this episode of "Why is THAT in the Bible?!" we look at a passage in 2 Kings where God tells King Hezekiah, who is very sick, that he is going to die. Hezekiah prays and asks God to let him live. God relents and gives Hezekiah 15 more years of life. As we read on, those 15 years were not good to the  godly King Hezekiah. 

This passage raises many questions: Why did God allow Hezekiah 15 more years of life when Scripture says God has each of our days numbered? Did God contradict His own Word by doing it? Why did Hezekiah sin like he did after God just gave him this miracle? Since God was always going to use Babylon to punish His people, did God make Hezekiah sin to entice Babylon? Does God ever lead us into sin as part of His plan and purpose? And a huge question that has been the topic of many hot debates,  since God is completely Sovereign, does that mean we don't really have any free will? Are we just robots programmed by God?

Understanding Jesus’ parables isn’t always easy at first glance. Even the Apostles struggled with them. But we shouldn’t shy away from them, we should wrestle with them and figure them out. In this episode, we delve into the parable of the Shrewd Manager. This parable has been called one of the most difficult passages in Scripture to understand. But with some solid exegesis, we can understand what Jesus is saying to us and answer questions like Is Jesus telling His followers to follow in the footsteps of a crooked, or at least incompetent manager?  And if He isn't, what is He telling us through this parable?!

There’s no doubt humor and laughter are part of the goodness of God. He loves to see His people delighting in not only creation, but each other, and of course, in Him.  Yes,  God is sovereignty and holy, but we can’t forget that He does have a sense of humor. 

The "Why is THAT in the Bible," passage we look at in this episode  is a great example of God's sovereignty, holiness, and humor! Join us as we delve into Balaam and his talking donkey and answer questions like:  Why the heck is the donkey talking? And maybe even crazier, why does Balaam engage in conversation with the donkey like it was no big deal it’s talking to him?! Why does God make the donkey speak? Has He ever before or since opened the mouth of an animal and allowed it to speak? Why was God stopping Balaam from moving forward? Who is Balaam and why is he angry? And of course, why is this passage in the Bible?

In this episode we look at an odd event that is recounted in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Jesus comes across a demoniac (a man possessed by demons). In fact, he (and another man) are possessed by so many demons, the demons call themselves "Legion." Upon Jesus' arrival, the demons beg Jesus not to send them into the Abyss, but instead to let them go into a large herd of pigs nearby. Jesus gives them permission, and they immediately drown the pigs. The townspeople instead of rejoicing that the suffering man is not free from demon possession, or that they just witnessed a miracle, beg Jesus to leave their town.

Why does Jesus allow the demons to go into the pigs? Why do the demons kill the pigs? Why do the townspeople want Jesus to leave? Is demon possession possible today? Why is this passage in the Bible? Tune in for answers!

For sure one of the odder passages in Scripture is found Genesis 18 where Jesus, while paying Abraham a visit, tells him that the angels that had accompanied Him and have just left were heading to Sodom because God was about to destroy the whole city for their gross sin. What follows is an exchange between Jesus and Abraham where it seems like Jesus is willing to barter and possibly change His plans for Sodom to appease Abraham.   

This passage causes us to ask several questions such as why does Jesus engage in a back and forth with Abraham and not just put him in his place like He does to Job? But since He does engage in a back and forth with him, does that mean that God can, under certain circumstances, change His mind? Is God ever willing to change His plan if we ask Him to? Is it ever appropriate to barter with God? Is God ever willing to bend to our will? And of course, there is the question of why is this passage in the Bible? 

Join us as we answer these and other questions!

We continue with our series, "Why is THAT in the Bible?!" with a narrative from the book of Joshua where in chapter 10, while protecting the people of Gibeon from enemy armies, Joshua commands the sun to stand still so the Israelites would have more daylight and be able to finish off their enemies. But even wilder is that God grants his request! 

Did God really heed the command of a man to make the sun stand still? Did the sun actually stand still? Does this passage open the door for us to ask "big" things of God? Join us as we delve into this passage and find out why is THAT in the Bible!
