Paul’s argument in Romans 1–4 forms a powerful, structured witness for God: creation, conscience, canon, and character. This episode outlines each witness and explains how Christians can use them—starting with general revelation (creation), moving through the moral witness (conscience), to the authoritative Scriptures (canon), and finally living testimony (character)—to witness effectively and defend the faith.

Robert and Alan offer practical tips for applying these pillars when talking with skeptics, and encourage believers to study apologetics, cultivate a consistent Christian walk, and prioritize the Word.

The episode begins with New Year reflections and goal tips, then shifts into a focused study of biblical angelology and the seven classes of life.

Topics include the differences between creatures, humans, angels, cherubim, celestial creatures, the mysterious symbiotic life form, and counterfeit beings — plus warnings about New Age influences and spiritual deception.

This episode introduces Jeffrey Mardis’s biblical framework for classifying life forms, focusing on the tripartite nature of humans (body, soul, spirit), the role of blood and spirit in life, and the first three of six legitimate life classes including creatures, mankind, and angels.

The hosts  explain how Genesis 6’s “sons of God” incident created illicit hybrid life, why distinctions in Scripture matter, and how these topics relate to modern discussions about angels, extraterrestrial phenomena, and spiritual warfare. The conversation continues in the next episode.

In this episode we walk verse-by-verse through 1 Corinthians 2 to explain revelatory epistemology — that true, objective knowledge of God comes only through the Holy Spirit and the preserved words of Scripture.

We contrast the natural and the spiritual man, show why secular wisdom fails to grasp divine truth, and highlight the necessity of expository study, Scripture-preservation, and comparing Scripture with Scripture.

Episode 40 of The Immutable Word explores why context matters when interpreting Scripture, showing how single verses taken out of their setting become misleading pretexts. The hosts give clear examples (e.g., 1 Timothy 5:23, Mark 16:16, Matthew 24:13, Malachi) and warn against proof-texting and private interpretation.

They introduce a practical method—S.W.O.R.D. (Surrounding, Whole chapter, Overall book, Recipients, Divine design)—and a spectrum of context from immediate verses to the whole Bible, emphasizing expository study, right dividing, and careful hermeneutics for faithful understanding.

This episode examines what Scripture reveals about angels: not as winged, sexless cherubs but as male, tangible spiritual beings who act as appearances or representatives before God. We cover their roles—messengers, ministering servants, and powerful agents who can protect or execute judgment—along with theophanies like the Angel of the Lord, the idea of angelic representatives for children and churches, and the spiritual princes over nations.

Along the way Robert and Alan clear up popular myths, discuss angels’ physical and interdimensional aspects, and explain why a Bible-centered view matters amid modern speculation about angels, aliens, and false teachings.

Hosts share a warm Thanksgiving recap, and a reflection on gratitude inspired by a post titled “The Safeguard of Gratitude,” which draws on 1 Thessalonians 5:18 and warns that thanklessness leads to spiritual decline.

The episode then transitions into Lecture 3 of the Doctrine of the Holy Spirit series, defending the deity of the Holy Spirit: His personhood, divine attributes (omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, eternal), scriptural proofs, and role in salvation and sanctification. The hosts also preview upcoming topics and invite listener feedback and resources.

In this episode of The Immutable Word we walk through John 4 and examine how Jesus’ conversation with the Samaritan woman serves as a practical blueprint for personal witnessing. The hosts unpack how Jesus opened the door, navigated objections and distractions, and redirected the dialogue toward eternal truth and true worship.

Listeners will leave with simple, practical takeaways: listen for open doors, use questions wisely, confront sin with grace, keep the focus on Christ and eternity, and be patient and compassionate in evangelistic conversations.

This episode examines how conversations between believers can derail when debate turns into diagnosis and name-calling, illustrating the ad hominem problem and the intellectual laziness of labeling instead of engaging evidence.

Using Scripture (1 Thessalonians 5:21, Job, Acts) and a real online interaction as examples, the hosts stress the Christian duty to "prove all things," think critically, and present truth with grace rather than steamroll or shame others.

In this episode of The Immutable Word, Robert and Alan discuss the recent surge in UFO/UAP interest and examine how Christians should approach reports of aliens through a biblical lens. They explore scriptural passages that point to an unseen spiritual dimension, consider interdimensional explanations for sightings, and assess the potential links between modern UFO phenomena, ancient accounts, and end-times prophecy.

They reflect on government reports, eyewitness testimony, religious and cultural influences, and the possible role of demonic deception, hybrids, and transhumanism in future global events. The episode encourages Christians to use Scripture as their final authority when interpreting these phenomena and to be prepared to answer questions about them.
