Episode 245: 32AD: Jesus Comes to Zacchaeus's House Nov 05, 2024

Show notes

Perhaps Zacchaeus, a short wealthy tax collector, heard the cry of blind Bartimaeus "son of David," and he scrambled up a tree to see Jesus on the road. When Jesus came by on the road, he called up to Zacchaeus, and welcomed himself to his home. Jesus sees him, and calls him by his name which means "pure." In this episode, we cover the salvation of Zacchaeus.

Episode 242: 32AD: Lazarus Raised from the Dead and Death to Self Oct 15, 2024

Show notes

Jesus is told that Lazarus is sick, but instead of rushing to his aid, he waits two more days. In this account, we cover the delay and the raising of Lazarus from the dead. As a practical note, this account is such, that it speaks to the death to self that we must all experience daily:
Death to Self: (1) It stinks (2) Its painful (3) Its personal (4) Its purposeful
Raised to Life: (1) Jesus raises us from the dead (2) to bring him glory!
John 11:1-44

Show notes

Jesus goes to Jerusalem to celebrate Hanukkah. In this nationalistic setting, the Jews inquire if Jesus is the Messiah. Unfortunately, they cannot see it despite the miracles, the Hanukkah prayer for miracles, and the simplicity of Jesus' teaching "my sheep hear my voice."

In the Parable of the Laborers, Jesus alludes to the end time harvest of souls up to the eleventh hour ministry. In this episode, we cover the harvest and the calling up of the idle workers in five successions. Jesus saved the best for last, and we should rejoice our names are written in the book.

Episode 239: 29AD: A New Perspective on the Rich Ruler Sep 24, 2024

Show notes

A rich ruler kneels before Jesus and says "what must I do to be saved?" In this episode, we compare this encounter with the questions of Nicodemus in John 3. Jesus answers the question from an Old Testament perspective, because it was an Old Testament question...what must I do...
We conclude this episode comparing Old Testament faith with New Testament faith.
