The Bill Arnold Show

How reliable is the New Testament? Can we trust it? How was it put together? How does it fit with the Old Testament? And why does all of this really matter? Apologetic specialist Rick Mattson joins the show to share the significance of understanding the New Testament properly, and why having the answers to these questions is important.

It's time for another addition of "Ask the Professor," as former Professor Mark Muska from the University of Northwestern-St. Paul joins Bill once again. He starts by explaining 1 John 2:19, takes us through the meaning of Philippians 1:6, what it means to be sanctified as Christians, shares if God truly gives us over to our wickedness as seen in Romans 1:24, and covers many other passages in Scripture.

There is no such thing as a perfect parent, and often we can feel responsible when our children stray and rebel. What are we to do? Pastor Eric Davis joins the show to give an encouraging message to any parents with wayward children. He reflects on several passages in Scripture, including Ecclesiastes 7:13, Isaiah 1:2, Proverbs 22:15, Psalm 131, and many more.

Why is it in our nature as humans to rebel and sin? Could it be that we have no desire to be under authority? Are we aiming to please ourselves or God? And why do we seek the easier path rather than what is right? Dr. Andy Schuttinga is back once again to discuss all of this and more.
