The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming

Latest Episodes:

Media Monday! Dr. Mark Strauss, NIV Update Commitee Oct 16, 2023

Show notes

At the Tru316 Foundation we believe the most important verse that needs to be "true'd up" is Genesis 3:16. But all the verses need care when translating them from the original Hebrew and Greek languages into our modern Bibles. LEARN HOW the best selling version in the world does its work.

We interview the warm and scholarly Dr. Mark Strauss, Vice Chair of the New International Version Update Committee.

This is the first of our DAILY INTERVIEWS on Season 12 of The Eden Podcast. Make sure to dig into past seasons that feature teaching on Genesis 2-3, Ephesians 5-6, 1 Timothy 2-3 and 1 Corinthians 11 & 1 and 1 Peter 3. We've seen that once Genesis 3:16 is made clear all the other passages become clear!

You can get The Eden Book Series with the contents of these episodes in book form WITH STUDY GUIDES TOO! Available on Amazon starting with The Book of Eden, Genesis 2-3 by Bruce C. E. Fleming

The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn’t curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader? We invite you to get from Amazon the four books by Bruce C. E. Fleming in The Eden Book Series (Tru316.com/trubooks). Would you like to support the work of the Tru316 Foundation?

These are the tools we used to research the 7 key passages on women and men for The Eden Podcast.

Here are The Four Principles to use to let each passage of the Bible speak for itself:

God is the source of all Truth
Everything in the Bible has its own place
Everything in the Bible has its own meaning
The Bible is meant to change me

Learn to use these 4 Principles well and you can confidently study any Bible passage! In this extended Master Class we especially highlight these passages:

Genesis 3:16
Genesis 2-3
Ephesians 5:15-6:9
1 Timothy 2:8-3:16

1 Peter 3:7 The "Weaker" Wife Oct 01, 2023

Show notes

Peter starts verse 7 on chapter 3 with the word "Likewise" in the Greek text. Likewise what? or who? This is a key to understanding 1 Peter 3:7. This and other keys are covered in this episode of The Eden Podcast and in the book Because of Eden on 1 Corinthians 11 & 14 and 1 Peter 3. Notice the second part of the subtitle that refers to unequally yoked couples: Quotations Refuted and Witnessing Spouses. It is available HERE!

1 Peter 3:1-6 The Weaker Husband Sep 24, 2023

Show notes

Witnessing wives and husbands. The passage of 1 Peter 3:1-7 is about those Christians who are married to unbelieving spouses. They are unequally yoked. They are praying for their partner to come to Christ. Peter gives sensible advice how to please God and how to win their spouse.

Is this passage about hierarchical marriages with wives submitting to their lordly husbands? Are all wives somehow the "weaker vessel"? NOT AT ALL! The weaker spouse does not yet know Christ and needs to be won to Him.

WHO said "Women remain silent"? 1 Corinthians 14:34-40 Sep 03, 2023

Show notes

Throughout 1 Corinthians Paul inserts words and sentences from his critics. He then responds to their ideas. In 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 he inserts a final quote from the legalists. They justified their views by saying "as the law says." This was the Jewish oral law not the Law!

Therefore we should put quotation marks around verses 34-35. By not doing so we allow people to think Paul is advancing these ideas which are contradictory to the freedom in Christ he taught elsewhere!

But some people have said this was a reference to Genesis 3:16. Here at the Tru316 Foundation we have shown that there are no such ideas in God's words to the woman.

Paul clearly identifies the group at the source of these ideas. He refers to four identifiers. Learn these and more on this episode of The Eden Podcast. Go Deeper?

What about the angels? 1 Cor 11:10-16 Aug 27, 2023

Show notes

Did you know we will judge angels? We will! See 1 Corinthians 6.

Paul's point in 1 Corinthians 11:10 is that since we are fit to judge the angels we are also fit to put into practice what he recommends in the first part of 1 Corinthians 11:10.

Don't forget to start the passage at verse 2. Paul is praising the women and men in the church at Corinth for practicing what he preached! He quoted the hypocritical legalists in verses 4-6. Then he appealed to the Jewish believers in the church based on Genesis 1-2. We ALL are made in God's image.

Then he appeals to Gentile sensibilities in verses 13-15. Finally he dismisses those who are still contentious.

On our way to the Reunion! Aug 20, 2023

Show notes

Joy made some important discoveries about the word patterns in Genesis 3:16 we've never told you about before. We'll be including them in the forthcoming edition of her book: Man & Woman in Biblical Unity, Theology from Genesis 2-3!

Did you know that there is a chiasm that shows which part of the linchpin we're supposed to notice? In the chiasm of lines a and b the stress is on the Hebrew word heron in Genesis 3:16a! But modern language translations cover over this VERY important detail. That's why we're working to "true" this verse and related passages as well.
