In this episode of The Apostolic Classroom, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew turn to the General Epistles—1 John, 1 Peter, and James—to explore how these letters reaffirm the revelation of the one true God revealed in Jesus Christ.
From John’s defense of Christ’s identity against false teachings to Peter’s vision of a royal priesthood and James’s call for faith proven by works, the hosts trace a unified theme: true fellowship with God is found only in Christ, the mediator and advocate for humanity. Together they examine key passages on sonship, obedience, and sanctification, clarifying how the Apostles upheld both the full humanity and full deity of Jesus.
The discussion also contrasts Apostolic understanding with later theological distortions, emphasizing that salvation calls believers not just to believe, but to be transformed. A powerful study showing how the General Epistles bring the story of divine kingship and covenant to its practical, lived conclusion.

In this bonus episode of The Apostolic Classroom, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew step away from the main “God’s Kingship” series to answer questions from listeners. What Bibles do they carry and preach from? How should study Bibles and commentaries be used? And how can you evaluate whether a resource is trustworthy?

The discussion ranges from personal Bible preferences (Skyler, Allen, Thompson Chain, and more) to the importance of inerrancy, the pitfalls of redaction criticism, and the value of reading Scripture slowly and carefully. They also share practical tips for engaging with books written from different theological perspectives without compromising an Apostolic view of truth.

This Q&A highlights the tools and habits that help shape serious, faithful study of God’s Word.

In this episode of The Apostolic Classroom, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew turn to the book of Hebrews—a text that richly ties together the themes of kingship, priesthood, and covenant. Beginning with the debated question of Pauline authorship, they outline the case for Hebrews as a sermon rooted in Paul’s theology and anchored in Old Testament scripture.
Key themes include Christ’s superiority over angels and Moses, His role as both high priest and sacrifice, and the fulfillment of Psalm 110 in the priesthood “after the order of Melchizedek.” The hosts trace how Hebrews emphasizes Christ as the mediator of a better covenant, established on better promises, and how the text admonishes believers not to fall away but to move on from foundational doctrines to maturity.
The conversation also explores the “cloud of witnesses” in Hebrews 11, the call to endurance in Hebrews 12, and the ultimate hope of an unshakable kingdom. A crucial episode for understanding how Hebrews frames Jesus as King, Priest, and Savior—the culmination of God’s plan throughout scripture.

In this episode of The Apostolic Classroom, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew turn to Paul—the apostle whose letters shape much of the church’s understanding of the Godhead. Beginning with his background as a Pharisee trained under Gamaliel and his dramatic conversion, they show how Paul’s grasp of the Old Testament saturates his writings.
Key themes include Paul’s comparison of Adam and Christ in Romans and Corinthians, his teaching on justification and the purpose of the law, and his Christological expositions in Philippians, Ephesians, and Colossians. The discussion highlights how Paul affirms continuity between the Old and New Testaments, confronts misconceptions about law and grace, and proclaims Jesus as both servant and exalted King.
Along the way, the hosts contrast Paul’s theology with later distortions, clarify how his writings resist both Judaizing and Hellenistic philosophies, and stress his central conviction: in Christ dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily, and we are complete in Him.

In this episode of The Apostolic Classroom, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew explore how the book of Acts continues the story of God’s kingship revealed in the Gospels. Beginning with Pentecost, they trace the fulfillment of Old Testament promises through the outpouring of the Spirit, the anointing of God’s people, and the birth of the church.
Key themes include the connection between Sinai and Pentecost, the historicity of Acts and Luke’s reliability as a historian, Peter’s sermon and its Christological focus, and the extension of covenant promises from Israel to the Gentiles. Along the way, they highlight how Acts presents not novelty but fulfillment—the revelation of Jesus as both Lord and Christ, and the empowering of His people as citizens of His kingdom.

In this episode, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew continue Semester 1, God’s Kingship, by turning to the Gospels. The discussion begins with John 1:1 and the meaning of the Logos, exploring how Jesus is not “God the Son” but God revealed—the Word made flesh.

The hosts examine how each Gospel frames Christ’s identity: Matthew’s genealogy and fulfillment of the Davidic Covenant, Mark’s proclamation of Jesus as Messiah, Luke’s emphasis on the Spirit’s anointing, and John’s portrayal of the new creation. Key themes include Christ’s full humanity and divinity, the baptism of Jesus as an anointing rather than an example, and how kingship and sonship converge in the identity of the Son of God.

Along the way, they address common Trinitarian objections, clarify the biblical meaning of sonship, and show how the Gospels collectively affirm Jesus as God’s self-disclosure, the true King, and the mediator where heaven meets earth.

This week on The Apostolic Classroom, we turn to the Prophets—examining how their sermons, visions, and writings reveal the coming of the true King. From Isaiah’s temple vision to the child born in chapter 9, we trace the continuity of God’s covenant and kingship through Scripture.
We explore Isaiah’s prophecies, Ezekiel’s temple vision, and how the New Testament fulfills these themes in Jesus Christ.

In this pivotal episode, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew explore the Davidic Covenant and its foundational role in understanding the Godhead.

Tracing kingship from Abraham to David, they examine why David is called a man after God’s own heart, the nature of biblical sonship, and how the covenant promise of an eternal throne lays the groundwork for the identity of Jesus Christ.

Along the way, they address common objections, delve into biblical archaeology, and connect Psalm 2 to Christ’s baptism and coronation as King. A critical installment for grasping how Jesus is both Son of David and Son of God.

In this episode, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew explore the kingship of God in the book of Exodus.

They contrast Yahweh’s authority with ancient Near Eastern views of gods and kings—especially Egypt’s deification of Pharaoh. Key topics include the spiritual symbolism of the plagues, God’s judgment on Egypt’s gods, the significance of Moses’ name, and the progression of Israel from a people to a nation under God’s name at Sinai.

The conversation also touches on modern misconceptions of worship and faith, showing how Exodus lays the theological groundwork for relationship, reverence, and obedience to the one true God.

In this opening episode, Steven, Jeremias, and Andrew begin Semester 1, "God's Kingship," a 16-week exploration of the Godhead throughout scripture by examining the foundational texts of Genesis.

Topics include God’s uniqueness as sole Creator, the contrast between biblical creation and ancient Near Eastern mythologies, the establishment of divine kingship, the nature of covenant, and the theological significance of Adam, Abraham, and the fall.

Special attention is given to how Genesis frames humanity’s relationship with God and lays the groundwork for biblical revelation and redemption.
