In today’s program, Paul Trask continues his study of Luke 4. Jesus compares His present ministry to that of Israel’s national heroes, Elijah & Elisha, implying the same deplorable conditions in Judah as had existed in Northern Israel, before its overthrow by Assyria (Luke 4:25–30; I Kings 17:7–24; II Kings 5:1–19; Luke 7:1–17) Elijah & Moses meet Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration, discussing Jesus impending arrest, trial, crucifixion and resurrection (Matthew 17:1–13) Jesus explains that John the Baptist was…

Today’s program wraps up Matt’s study of the book of Hebrews, and the Ascension. No less divine nor human, Christ sits on the right hand of God, as our High Priest Matt starts with Hebrews 12:28 and continues into chapter 13 Our lives should be in service to him (Hebrews 12:28-29, 13:1-25; 1 Timothy 6:10)

The Hebrews study continues with chapter 7:25 and continues through chapter 8. We will do well if we trust Jesus, he fits our needs! The main point of Hebrews 8:1 is that Jesus is our High Priest.  (Hebrews 7:25-28, Exodus 20, Hebrews 8:1-13)

In today’s program Matt discusses the history of crucifixion, including a medical perspective. The Crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth is one of the most well-documented events of antiquity! Saying that this person was not crucified is nonsense!!! Debating who Jesus was is a totally different subject. The Crucifixion of Jesus was carried out by the Romans (crucifixion started with the Persians in 600 BC) on the demands of the Jews and their leadership (Matthew 27 & Mark 15)!  It was…

Paul Trask is standing in for Matt Burton again today. And today’s discussion is a continuation of last week’s program regarding the Divine Marriage. Paul continues describing the  overarching framework, or “schema,” for understanding not only the Bible, but for understanding God’s original intent in creation. And that intent was to create a people which would enjoy an intimate “one-flesh” marriage relationship with himself throughout all eternity. In fact, God blessed mankind with the institution of marriage in order to…
