Clergy Loyal to the Crown? Interview with Dr. Gregg Frazer Jun 04, 2024

Show notes

We're exploring a side of the American Revolution that often gets overlooked. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Gregg Frazer to discuss his book God against the Revolution: The Loyalist Clergy's Case against the American Revolution.
Romans 13:1 says, "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God." This biblical principle of obeying authority is at the heart of Frazer's book.
Frazer’s work offers the first comprehensive account of the political thought of the American Loyalists – the roughly one-third of the population who opposed independence. While we know much about the Patriots, what about those who loved their land but didn't support breaking away from Britain? Frazer digs into the biblical, philosophical, and legal arguments made by Loyalist ministers in their writings, pamphlets, and sermons. These clergymen were far from being mere apologists for British rule; they criticized its excesses while arguing for adherence to English law and authority.
In our interview, we'll explore how these Loyalist ministers' perspectives provide an interesting counterpoint to the Patriots' fight for liberty, equality, and representation. Frazer raises challenging questions about the rationality and legitimacy of the Patriots' actions and their impacts on freedom of religion, expression, and due process.
So how should we examine the Bible's command to submit to authority? This discussion is not only an interesting addition to our understanding of American political thought but also a timely reflection on the political dynamics of our own era.
Join us as we delve into this nuanced and often forgotten perspective on the American Revolution.

How to Give a Prophetic Word: Spotlight on Us May 24, 2024

Show notes

A prophetic word should strengthen, encourage, and comfort, so that it edifies and builds up the church body. There is an etiquette and integrity to delivering prophetic messages and also receiving feedback. Today, we'll examine the best practices of how to deliver prophecy in person and during the Sunday gathering.
In so doing, we're going to turn the spotlight on ourselves and review our own team's prophetic words. At last year's Remnant Conference, we gathered a team gifted in prophetic ministry, and we provided live demonstrations right from the stage, getting real-time feedback. Part of etiquette and integrity is accountability. We want to know if our prophetic words hit the mark or not, helping us grow and learn from both the successes and the misses. We'll discuss how we can apologize, repent, and seek the Lord for greater clarity when our interpretation doesn't quite land where we expected. It's all part of our journey with the Lord, and we're excited to share it with you.

Biblical Diviners & Prophets? Interview with Dr. Ben Witherington III May 21, 2024

Show notes

Explore biblical prophecy with esteemed biblical scholar Dr. Ben Witherington III as he discusses his book, "Jesus the Seer: The Progress of Prophecy." Jesus the Seer explores the profound role of prophecy in both the Old and New Testaments and how it all points to the life and ministry of Jesus Christ.
Dr. Witherington unpacks the historical and theological contexts of prophecy, shedding light on its significance in the ancient Near East and Greco-Roman world. He explains how ancient cultures relied on diviners to interpret signs from nature, while court prophets served kings with their insights. In contrast, the Israelites transitioned from these practices as Yahweh’s prophets rose to prominence, delivering divine messages directly from God. Meanwhile, priests took on roles that involved interpreting God’s will through sacred objects such as the Urim and thummim, effectively replacing the diviners of surrounding nations.
Our conversation examines the complexities of distinguishing true prophecy from false, the role of court prophets, and the fascinating interplay between prophetic and wisdom literature. Dr. Witherington also shares his perspective on how the Holy Spirit operates differently in the New Covenant era, emphasizing the importance of discernment in contemporary prophetic practice.
Don't miss this thought-provoking discussion that not only enriches our understanding of biblical prophecy but also points us back to the central figure of our faith—Jesus Christ. Whether you're a pastor, teacher, or theology enthusiast, this episode is packed with valuable insights that will deepen your appreciation for the prophetic traditions of the Bible.

How to Develop a Spirit-Filled Children's Ministry 🙏✝️🕊 May 16, 2024

Show notes

Join us for a thought-provoking discussion as we examine how to build a healthy culture for developing the gifts of the Spirit in children's ministry at your church. But here's the twist: When is the right time to introduce children to the gifts of the Spirit? Should we start them young, or is it better to wait until they're older and more mature?
We'll be exploring this question and more as we delve into why it's important to empower children to walk in their God-given gifts from an early age. Are they truly capable of hearing from God and tapping into their spiritual gifts, even as youngsters? And how do we create an environment where they can thrive spiritually while still nurturing their innocence and curiosity?
Join the conversation as we discuss the benefits and challenges of introducing children to spiritual practices and helping them discern God's voice for themselves. After all, they're the future leaders of the Church, and it's our responsibility to equip them to confidently and clearly do God's work as they grow into adulthood.
So don't miss out on this essential topic! Tune in and let's explore together how we can raise up a generation who knows their worth in Christ and is prepared to boldly step into their calling, no matter their age.

From Burden to Blessing: Being Holy & Perfect May 14, 2024

Show notes

What does it mean to be holy? What does it mean to be perfect as God commands? The Christian life includes many demands, but perhaps none are as challenging or as misunderstood as the biblical command to “be holy” (Leviticus 11:44 and 1 Peter 1:16) or to “be perfect” (Matthew 5:48). How should we try to accomplish these goals?
Join us for an interview with Dr. Matt Ayars, co-author of "Holiness: A Biblical, Historical, and Systematic Theology." We'll dive deep into the concept of "neo-Holiness" – a fresh take that blends the pursuit of Christian perfection with grace and the Holy Spirit's work.
Dr. Ayars's insights are game-changers. He'll shed light on how these commands to "be holy" and "be perfect" aren't just burdensome rules, but pathways to blessing.
Dr. Matt Ayars is the former President of Wesley Biblical Seminary and Assistant Professor of Old Testament. He is an author and speaker.

Should Christians Practice Yoga? 🤔 May 02, 2024

Show notes

There's a rising trend of "Christian yoga" practiced by believers and even offered in churches. Christians are embracing Christian yoga workouts and Christian yoga music. But can we truly divorce the spiritual from the physical? Are we inadvertently embracing pagan practices by participating in yoga? Or can we transform the practices into a form of worship to Christ?
On Wednesday, we'll delve into the spiritual implications of yoga and Christian yoga flow - and whether renaming it to "Christian yoga" changes its essence. Tune in for an eye-opening conversation!

Examining Mysticism in Today's Culture Apr 30, 2024

Show notes

Join us for our discussion with theologian Andrew Root on his book The Church in An Age of Secular Mysticism. In a world flooded with spiritualities promising personal transformation, Root sheds light on the differences between these mysticisms and authentic Christian transformation. We'll explore the dangers of following or adapting these reigning mysticisms and learn why the self has become so important yet so burdened with guilt--and how we should think about both. Root will present a better way--even a mysticism--centered on the theology of the cross that pastors and leaders can use to form their own imaginations and practices.
For secular mysticism explained and how a Christian should approach mysticism, tune in to this episode of The Remnant Radio!
Andrew Root (PhD, Princeton Theological Seminary) is the Olson Baalson Professor of Youth and Family Ministry at at Luther Seminary in St. Paul, MN.
