Survival of the Fittest 31:56

2h ago31:56

31:56

Gary concludes his interview with Brett Prieto about worldviews and morality. As he always does, Gary brings in pop culture and television and movies to help make his point about the need for an authoritative standard (a Lawgiver) in order to define right and wrong. Many claim to be moral and ethical without any actual basis for it.…

Borrowed Moral Capital 28:40

3d ago28:40

28:40

This is part one of an interview by Brett Prieto about Gary's book, Why It Might Be OK to Eat Your Neighbor. Gary points out the impossibility of a materialist worldview to define things like love or morality. Most atheists don't even realize the problem that they are "borrowing" morality from the Christian worldview in order to prop up their own l…

The Rapture Under the Microscope 28:25

2h ago28:25

28:25

Gary responds to a clip on Facebook that claims to "prove" the Rapture with two Bible verses. Revelation 3:10 and 1 Thessalonians 1:10 are the verses and Gary digs into the Greek and some of the translation and interpretation issues involved. Also, outside of the language issues, there is the larger problem of the historical context and the time in…

MAGA vs the DC Uniparty 33:54

14h ago33:54

33:54

Gary discusses MAGA, Trump, and the Washington DC political machine. The reason why the uniparty can exist at all is because Americans (and many Christians) have disconnected from truth and history and care more about what vapid celebrities shout into the media echo chamber. It's not a difficult equation: if you allow it to happen without consequen…

You're Paying for All of It 28:09

12h ago28:09

28:09

Gary discusses the economic nonsense being discussed and "promised" by a certain presidential campaign. Socialists breed envy and what Herbert Schlossberg called "ressentiment" (see Idols for Destruction pp. 51-54) by encouraging voters to go after the "rich" and big businesses. This tactic ultimately hurts the very people is claims to help by caus…

Jesus' 'Soon' Coming Under the Microscope 26:35

12d ago26:35

26:35

Gary responds to recent comments made by Glenn Beck on Tucker Carlson's national tour. Beck makes claims about the end times that he hasn't studied or given thought about the implications. If we are "close" to the end, which is a prophetic inevitability, there is nothing we can do about it. The historical context must be considered to properly unde…

Solutions and Tradeoffs 27:48

2d ago27:48

27:48

Gary discusses the economic concept of tradeoffs. Thomas Sowell wrote about this years ago and it's something that liberals do not understand. Every solution has consequences, and they may be good, bad, or a combination of the two. Liberals want solutions without ever considering the tradeoffs.

The Last Man on Earth 21:45

4d ago21:45

21:45

Gary discusses the film, The Omega Man, with Charlton Heston. Based on the book I Am Legend (with a 2007 Will Smith remake as well), the film is very prophetic considering modern climate armageddonists claiming that the "end is near" thanks to our continuing use of fossil fuels.

The Olivet Discourse Under the Microscope 33:54

7d ago33:54

33:54

Gary puts Matthew 24, or what is commonly called Jesus' Olivet Discourse, under the microscope. He responds specifically to the "mixed" approach, which teaches that there are elements of past fulfillment (preterism) and future fulfillment (futurism) throughout the Discourse.

Three-Fifths Clause and the Electoral College 31:30

9d ago31:30

31:30

Gary answers a commenter on Facebook that doesn't know much about history, or at least about U.S. Constitutional history. The Three-Fifths Compromise (or Three-Fifths Clause) in Article 1, Section 2 of the Constitution does not mean that black slaves were considered to be only 3/5 human. Nonsense like this, as well as cries to abolish the Electoral…

Fallen, Finite, and Fallible 24:33

11d ago24:33

24:33

Gary answers two listener questions, one about the Bible itself and another about sovereign citizenship. People regularly claim that the Bible is a "religious" book, but unlike every other religious book the Bible roots itself in actual history. Dismissing the Bible as a religious work is special pleading that happens with no other works of history…

A Political Death Cult 18:06

1M ago18:06

Gary discusses pro-abortion nonsense being spoken by Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear against Vice-Presidential candidate JD Vance. The level of irrationality being promoted by the party of death is stunning, yet media personalities and talking heads continue to swallow and repeat the insanity.

Be Prepared 23:38

1M ago23:38

23:38

Gary discusses current financial conditions and the need to be prepared for short-term and long-term "disruptions." We all saw what happened to store shelves during COVID, and this should serve as a lesson to be ready in advance. Not trying to be alarmist, but being ready is always better than not.

Reading the Bible in its Own Context 32:03

32:03

In the concluding half of his interview with John Reddoch on The Wake Up Call, Gary discusses many different aspects of Bible prophecy and what it means to take the Bible at face-value, rather than trying to fit a complex system into the biblical text.

Guns Aren’t the Problem 16:18

2M ago16:18

16:18

More gun control legislation and executive orders are being proposed by the Biden administration. Gun violence always seems to increase at the exact moment these bills are suggested, but with over 400 million guns in this country, the level of gun violence in the United States is actually quite low. Gary discusses the tyrannical nonsense of wanting…

The End Times and the Church Fathers 16:18

2M ago16:18

16:18

Gary reviews a book by Ken Johnson called "The End Times and the Ancient Church Fathers." Johnson's argument is that the early church fathers believed and taught a similar end times view to modern-day dispensationalists. Gary disagrees and contrasts Johnson's book and views with the truth of Scripture. For a deeper dive into this topic, get New Tes…

The Apologetics of Love and Existence 26:14

2M ago26:14

26:14

Gary discusses several topics and shows how biblical apologetics apply and pertain to ultimate questions. Metaphysical concepts like love and existence cannot be limited or defined by what we can see and test in a laboratory. The physical cannot explain the metaphysical. Materialists like Neil deGrasse Tyson and Richard Dawkins pretend that "scienc…

In this interview with Darren Doane, Gary discusses the historical conditions and motivations behind The Christian Life and Character of the Civil Institutions of the United States. Interestingly, the political climate in 1864 was not much different from our own. Christians and non-Christians alike need to be reminded of the impact of God's Word an…

The Scripted Episode of Presidential Politics 27:51

2M ago27:51

27:51

The craziness of the current political situation is difficult to deny; it's like watching an episode of scripted television. Anyone who still believes that we live in a country "for the people" isn't paying attention. Facts don't matter, history doesn't matter, reality doesn't matter. The narrative is made up on the spot and attested to by the main…

Rich, Revelation, and the Rapture 17:13

2M ago17:13

17:13

Gary discusses a recent Tucker Carlson interview with country musician John Rich about Bible prophecy. Both Carlson and Rich point out some of the problems with the doctrine of the pre-trib rapture (there are many), including politics and foreign policy. Once again, it proves that eschatology is not a side-issue; it has massive real-world implicati…

JD Vance and an Idol of Bread 24:45

2M ago24:45

24:45

Gary responds to certain Christians concerned with Donald Trump's VP pick, JD Vance. Despite many reasons that make him a good VP candidate, many are pointing to his Catholicism as concerning because he "worships an idol of bread," referring to the Roman Catholic view of the Lord's Supper (Communion). Gary points out that politics, and especially t…

Violent Rhetoric from the Left 24:25

2M ago24:25

24:25

Gary points out the ongoing hypocrisy of the media and social media allowing liberal celebrities to say and post the most outlandish comments about Donald Trump. How much did these violent statements influence the shooter who tried to take him out? The double-standard is nearly impossible to ignore, so much so that even some on the Left are beginni…

How Partial is Your Preterism? 27:38

2M ago27:38

27:38

Gary answers a question from one of his YouTube videos about partial preterism, full preterism, and everything in between.

The Religion of Statism 22:40

2M ago22:40

22:40

Gary continues his interview with Paul Stevenson about politics and freedom and the decline of western culture. Gary points out that a biblical worldview was essentially assumed in both Britain and the United States for many years, but that worldview is steadily eroding. Note: Gary's recording is rough in several places.…

Career Politicians on Both Sides 24:53

3M ago24:53

24:53

Gary discusses international politics with Paul Edward Stevenson, a radio host from Britain. Political bureaucrats are the same all over the world and desire to have power in order to maintain control. While the promises are always to fix whatever is wrong, the result is always more government intrusion and loss of freedom. Note: Gary's recording i…

Following the Science in Sports 22:41

3M ago22:41

22:41

Gary discusses the Olympics and other current events that help to destroy the illogical views being promoted by leftists and self-appointed cultural elites. Sports, especially track and field, cannot be made to serve the narrative of men and women being the same. The differences cannot be ignored, even by those who claim to "follow the science."…

All Hell Is Breaking Loose 29:02

3M ago29:02

29:02

Gary discusses the state of the world—politically, culturally, socially—and how "bad" things appear to be. He notes that every generation before us had their own similar view, not everything was sunshine and roses. The "good old days" are a myth. But even though things seem to be bad at this moment in time, good things are happening, and the cracks…

Gary and the Resistance Chicks (Part Two) 27:38

3M ago27:38

27:38

Gary continues his discussion with the Resistance Chicks about biblical eschatology. Heaven and earth language in the Bible causes many people to think of cosmic bodies out in space, but is this what is really meant? Would first century hearers have understood these words in this way? The conversation leads to a different understanding of current w…

Revelation 20 and the Thousand Years 28:25

3M ago28:25

28:25

Gary discusses Revelation 20 and the enduring topic of the thousand years and the various millennial positions found among Christians. None of the major positions base their view explicitly on the small amount of information found in Revelation 20, which means they look elsewhere in the Bible for support.…

A Misguided View of the Commandments 22:21

3M ago22:21

22:21

Removing the Ten Commandments from schools does not eliminate moral instruction but replaces one moral framework with another. There must be a definitive and final legal standard of appeal to justify moral decisions at the personal and governmental levels. If not, then one judge’s opinion is as good (or as bad) as another: “Everyone did what was ri…

All the Players are in Place 27:42

3M ago27:42

27:42

Gary responds to two recent statements from Max Lucado and Michael Youssef regarding modern events as being a fulfillment of "end-times" predictions. Gary shows how everything they say is pointing to the last days has already been fulfilled in the first century. We are reading history, not prophecy, in Matthew 24.…

Smuggling Wheelbarrows 25:19

3M ago25:19

25:19

Gary continues his talk on the Christian worldview. He discusses the concept of "borrowed capital," or how non-Christians steal morality and ethics from Christians in order to argue against them. Only Christianity provides the moral and ethical foundation for life; an evolutionary worldview can provide only an "everyone for themselves" approach to …

Turning the World Upside Down 30:35

3M ago30:35

30:35

From the archives: The Gospel of Jesus was "a stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Gentiles" (1 Corinthians 1:23). Despite being in the cultural minority, the early church "turned the world upside down" (Acts 17:6). Gary discusses the Christian worldview, how we got where we are today, and how we get back to being world-changers.…

Rolling Stone Should Stick to Music 28:11

3M ago28:11

28:11

A Rolling Stone magazine reporter went into an event "undercover" posing as a conservative and supposedly got the dirt on Chief Justice Alito. It's a tired tactic, and didn't even remotely prove what the reporter was hoping. Gary gives a quick history lesson to set the record straight.

1
What About the Church Ages? 19:58

3M ago19:58

19:58

Gary discusses the concept of "church ages" and what the letters to the seven churches in Revelation 2 and 3 represent. Are we in the "last age," the Laodicean age? Or could the text simply mean what it says and be referring to seven historical churches in the mid-first century? And does this mean that Revelation 2 and 3 mean nothing to us today?…

A Short Course on Biblical Eschatology (Part Two) 24:25

4M ago24:25

24:25

Gary concludes his interview with Steve Deace about eschatology. Terms are defined, views are set forth, and questions are asked. Bible prophecy and "end-time" events can be controversial, but Gary keeps his interpretation tied to Scripture without appealing to current events.

A Short Course on Biblical Eschatology (Part One) 23:39

3M ago23:39

23:39

Gary was recently interviewed by Steve Deace about Bible prophecy and eschatology. In this first part, Gary defines terms and gives a quick method of interpretation (hermeneutics) for Christians to follow as they read their Bibles and encounter difficult passages. It's not wise to always rely on the "experts" (who have been wrong over and over and …

Gary responds to a recent podcast critiquing aspects of his interpretation of Bible prophecy. One of Steve Deace's producers (Aaron McIntire) has his own "Ask Me Anything" show and answered a question about why he was not convinced by Gary's view of the man of lawlessness.

Reading Matthew, Trusting Jesus (Part Two) 31:58

3M ago31:58

31:58

Gary concludes his interview with Jonathan Sedlak about his new book, Reading Matthew, Trusting Jesus. Sedlak’s study examines the rhetorical unity of Jesus' answers in Matthew 24, showing that the discourse’s literary features exclude any delay or transition between periods of fulfillment.
