Part 1: Law of the Day (Deuteronomy 12:29-32) - “When the LORD your God cuts off before you the nations whom you go in to dispossess, and you dispossess them and dwell in their land, take care that you be not ensnared to follow them, after they have been destroyed before you, and that you do not inquire about their gods, saying, ‘How did these nations serve their gods?—that I also may do the same.’ You shall not worship the LORD your God in that way, for every abominable thing that the LORD hates they have done for their gods, for they even burn their sons and their daughters in the fire to their gods. Everything that I command you, you shall be careful to do. You shall not add to it or take from it.” Part 2: Today I continue with the series on idolatry and civil disobedience. In this episode, I look at how to detect idols within a culture. This includes either things that are inherently wicked or good things that have become idols. I also look at how Christians have responded to cultural idols in Scripture as well as historically. Finally, I consider how Christians were perceived in the Roman Empire and how they reacted to the pagan idolatry within it.

Two Guys and a Bible

S2E5 – Idolatry and Civil Disobedience, Part 2

Part 1: Law of the Day (Exodus 23:13) - “Pay attention to all that I have said to you, and make no mention of the names of other gods, nor let it be heard on your lips.” Part 2: Today I begin another series on the topic of idolatry and civil disobedience. In this first episode, I define idolatry and discuss what it looks like. Passages like Romans 1 and Isaiah 44 are central to understanding the nature of idolatry. I also look at how idolatry leads to death and can never result in life.

S2E4 – Idolatry and Civil Disobedience, Part I

Part 1: Law of the Day (Leviticus 25:1-7): “The LORD spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai, saying, “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land that I give you, the land shall keep a Sabbath to the LORD...” Part 2: Today I continue with the topic of climate change and consider several passages from the Old Testament prophets. I also look at how secularism views climate change and how this also is a religious system. Both secularism and Christianity have a concept of sin, atonement, and good works. The question is whether we will serve God or idols.

S2E3 – Climate Change and Judgment, Part II

Part 1: Law of the Day (Deuteronomy 22:6-7): “If you come across a bird’s nest in any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs and the mother sitting on the young or on the eggs, you shall not take the mother with the young. You shall let the mother go, but the young you may take for yourself, that it may go well with you, and that you may live long.” Part 2: Today I introduce the topic of climate change and begin to look at what the Bible says, if anything, about it. I also look at judgment and the different types of judgment that we see in Scripture. The secular prophets view climate change as a form of judgment against humans. In this series I show where they are correct and where they are wrong.

S1E32 – Slaying Leviathan

Part 1: Law of the Day - “You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.” (Lev. 18:22) Part 2 (26:00) - I review and critique a portion of the most recent Bucks County Commissioner Meeting from June 2, 2021. The first ten minutes of the meeting involved a proclamation in support of LGBTQ+ Pride month. This proclamation was received by three individuals from the LGBTQ+ community. I point out the idolatry that is being celebrated, culminating in the flaunting of sin in the face of God. Ultimately, there is always a god of the system and there is always a law of that system. The question is: which god and which law?

S1E31 – The Sin of Pride Month

Today I was joined by two men from Sattler College in Boston, Dean Taylor (President) and Zach Johnson (Dean of Students). I invited them onto the show to discuss the topic of Christian non-violence. While they advocated for that position, my friend and fellow military officer, Gordon Beecroft, joined me to defend a Christian view of justified violence (e.g. capital punishment, self-defense, and just war). Our discussion covered multiple areas, such as the application of God's law, the role of Christians as ambassadors for Christ, and the nature of God's Kingdom. While we could not cover every significant area, this discussion serves as a starting point that we hope will be useful for all Christians who wish to dive deeper into understanding their role in this world. To contact either Dean or Zach with any questions, please reach out to them through the Sattler College website.

Part I: Law of the Day - “If a thief is found breaking in and is struck so that he dies, there shall be no bloodguilt for him, but if the sun has risen on him, there shall be bloodguilt for him. He shall surely pay. If he has nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft. If the stolen beast is found alive in his possession, whether it is an ox or a donkey or a sheep, he shall pay double.” (Exodus 22:2-4) Part II: Discussion of economics and money with Daniel Mynyk, host of the Truthspresso podcast.
