Discussion of "Last Things", "End Times", "The End of the World"… In Other Words "Eschatology".

Program Air Date: Sunday, June 25th, 2017 – 9am

News Radio 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland

.

When studying the Bible for answers to these sorts of questions, is it okay to allegorize biblical prophesies or should things be understood more literally? How literally? How allegorically? And why? How should this be done to remain within the scope of orthodoxy? This is part 4 in a series of 5 shows during which a Full Preterist tries to explain his view and persuade two Partial Preterists to consider his viewpoint.

Have All "End Times" Prophecies of the Bible Already Been Fulfilled?

Program Air Date: Sunday, June 18th, 2017 – 9am

News Radio 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland

.

When we read what the Bible says about the end of the world as we know it, including the tribulation and Second Coming of Christ, are we reading history? (Meaning that it has already happened.) Or perhaps partially history, with some of it having happened with more yet to come? Or is it all futuristic? Saying it is history is called Preterism. Preterism is divided into two camps: Full Preterism (believing that all prophecy has come to absolute fruition) and Partial Preterism (believing that all prophecy has been fulfilled, and yet there is more to come). This is part 3 of a 5 part discussion on this topic.

Is the Future Already Past?

Program Air Date: Sunday, June 11th, 2017 – 9am

News Radio 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland

.

Preterism. What is it? What do Christians who hold to this view believe, and what are some of their main reasons for believing they way that they do? Has all of biblical prophecy been completely fulfilled and realized? Has Jesus already returned? Are there reasons from the Bible for thinking so? This episode is part two of a five show arc during which we address questions such as, "When will the end of the world occur? Will it end at all? Or has it already ended in some sense? Should Christians scour the newspaper looking for clues in the headlines of daily events?"

Dispensational. Amillennial. Post Millennial. Pre-Trib. Post-Trib. Mid-Trib. Preterist. Futurist. Partial Preterist.

Should the Christian Church Work to Be Relevant? (part 5 of 5)

Program Air Date: Sunday, May 28th, 2017 – 9am

News Radio 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland

.

What is the point of relevance? Why even talk about it? Is it merely a marketing question about purposely building interracial/multi-national churches and/or demographically targeted congregations? In what ways was the earthly ministry of Jesus relevant to the Jewish culture around him? What can we learn from this? This episode tackles these sorts of questions while we tie up loose ends from the previous episodes in this five-episode arc.

.

Taking a short view: What's happening in churches now and in recent years in the effort to be relevant to the surrounding culture? Skits, dramatic dance, and even worship services featuring U2 as worship music have been tried. So has décor that's like Starbucks, mega churches with multiple programs, and now a renewed house church movement. Are these good, bad, or indifferent things?

Program Air Date: Sunday, May 14th, 2017 – 9am

News Radio 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland

.

Taking a long view with a quick survey of church history: Has it been a good thing that Easter and Christmas traditions were co-opted from other cultures, as the church worked to be relevant to their neighbors? What about the Black Madonna and Black Messiah? Or drums and guitars replacing organs… after organs replaced a cappella singing. Has the church mostly helped or mostly hurt its cause by seeking relevance through the embrace of elements found in surrounding culture?

News Radio 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland

Are the efforts by churches to be relevant a good thing? Why? Why not? Should the church seek to mirror culture? Change culture? Ignore culture? Whose culture? Does the church's cultural relevance effort ever go too far?

Should the Christian Church Work to Be Relevant? (part 1 of 5)

Program Air Date: Sunday, April 30th, 2017 – 9am

News Radio 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland

.

What is the current state of the "relevance dialog/debate" in the church? What does the "relevance landscape" look like? Are "seeker sensitive" churches relevant? How about "high church" with lots of liturgy? What has been the impact of high profile pastors such as Andy and Charles Stanley, Matt Chandler, John Piper, John MacArthur, etc.? In other words, what are churches today doing in an effort to be relevant? And to whom?

Three Marks of the True Church pt 4

Faith Debate: Sunday, April 23rd, 2017 (9am)

News Radio 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland

.

The three marks of the church from a Protestant (especially Reformed) view are: The Word Rightly Preached, the Sacraments Rightly Administered, Discipline Rightly Applied.

.

This week the focus is on the question: What should a person do when their church does not exhibit the three marks? When is it right to leave and how should this be done?
