The Jason DeMars Podcast

God's original purpose for mankind was to exercise dominion on earth through the spoken word, a position lost through Adam's fall but now being restored to the Bride of Christ. Through redemption, we are regaining our position as "amateur gods" with authority to speak God's word and see His creative power manifest in our families and spheres of influence.

• Adam was "God of the earth" with authority to command nature through the spoken word
• When Adam fell, he lost his godship, sonship, and domain, transferring his authority to Satan
• The book in Revelation 5 represents the title deed to earth that Adam lost
• Christ alone was worthy to take this book and break its seals, restoring what Adam lost
• In Revelation 10, this open book is delivered to John, representing the Bride receiving back authority
• The mystery of God being finished is the restoration of the spoken word authority to believers
• Fathers must first exercise this authority in their families before attempting to lead in ministry
• Marriage is a sacred, unbreakable covenant, with divorce not an option for believers
• We must teach our children to avoid the mistakes of previous generations

God's call to holiness goes far beyond external rule-following, penetrating to the very core of our character. Drawing from 1 Peter 1:13-17, we discover that true holiness begins as an internal transformation that naturally manifests in our outward behaviors—not the other way around.

The stark contrast between King David and King Saul reveals an essential truth about godliness: it's not about never making mistakes but about how we respond when confronted with our sins. When Nathan confronted David about his adultery and murder, he immediately acknowledged his wrongdoing without excuses. Saul, however, shifted blame to others and worried primarily about maintaining his public image. This fundamental difference explains why, despite David's grievous sins, God memorialized him as having a "perfect heart."

What does this teach us about our own spiritual journey? God judges not just our actions but our hearts' attitudes. When we sin—as we inevitably will—do we make excuses, blame circumstances, minimize our responsibility? Or do we take immediate ownership and seek reconciliation? Our response reveals far more about our spiritual condition than the sin itself.

We often misunderstand God's love as the removal of difficulties, but sometimes His love manifests as confrontation over sin. When God brings conviction, it's not punishment but grace—He could leave us to our devices, which Scripture identifies as His wrath. His confrontation offers opportunity for growth and deeper relationship.

Hebrews 12:14-17 warns about roots of bitterness that spring from unforgiveness. Like toxic plants, these roots not only poison our own spiritual growth but "defile many"—damaging our families, relationships, and faith communities. The solution isn't complicated but requires courage: forgive, take responsibility, and allow the Holy Spirit's unhindered work in our hearts.

How might your spiritual life transform if you stopped waiting for deliverance and instead took the simple steps of obedience God has already revealed? True holiness awaits those willing to humble themselves and deal honestly with what stands between them and God.

True Christian transformation requires the Word to move beyond intellectual understanding, quickening our spirits and producing Christ's attributes in our daily lives. What we manifest outwardly through our choices and behaviors reveals the authentic condition of our hearts.

• God calls us to holiness - being set apart as He is set apart from the world
• Genuine holiness springs from God's transformative work, not our self-effort 
• Living "in fear" means maintaining reverential awe toward God's majesty
• We cannot expect God's blessing while deliberately contradicting His Word
• Without developing holiness, we cannot truly recognize God when He manifests
• Harboring bitterness not only hinders our spiritual growth but defiles those around us
• The outward fruit in our lives reveals whether we've truly received God's grace

We must examine ourselves to ensure what's developing within will ultimately produce life-giving fruit that reflects Christ's nature.

Explore the profound connection between our spiritual inheritance and the biblical concept of Elohim, discovering how Christ restored our rightful position as "amateur gods" and representatives of God on earth.

• The word "adoption" in Scripture means "placing as sons," not taking someone who isn't yours
• We were chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world
• Our inheritance includes sonship, position, and the authority of the spoken word
• Like historical nobles training their heirs, God prepares us for our inheritance through progressive revelation
• "Elohim" in Hebrew applies not just to God but also to angels, prophets, and judges
• Adam and Eve lost our title deed of dominion, but Christ reclaimed it
• Jesus called us "gods" because we're born of God's Spirit and share His divine nature
• True godship comes through surrender to God's will, not exerting our own independence
• We inherit everything Christ inherited as His bride
• Our inheritance includes authority to speak with God's power when aligned with His Word

We delve into the biblical foundations of marriage, exploring God's original design for husbands and wives and how understanding these roles can heal broken relationships.

• God created two distinct functions in Genesis: woman as man's companion under authority and as mother of all living
• Woman serves as the bedding ground for seed while man plants the seed to fulfill God's multiplication plan
• Man's duties include providing food, clothing, and fulfilling conjugal rights
• Neglect is perhaps the greatest sin of husbands, often leading wives to emotional withdrawal or nagging
• When husbands fail to nurture the connection before physical intimacy, it creates a destructive cycle
• A virtuous woman follows God's design as crown to her husband; an immodest, controlling woman becomes "rottenness in his bones"
• Marriage should be joyful rather than drudgery, with husbands commanded to "rejoice with the wife of thy youth"
• Children aren't hindrances but blessings that fulfill the marriage covenant's purpose of multiplying dominion
• Modern culture has distorted marriage by delaying it and viewing children as obstacles to personal fulfillment
• True healing comes when both parties understand and fulfill their God-given functions regardless of the other's behavior
