| 456: Unpacking Zechariah 12:10 | 22 oct. 2026 | 00:33:50 | |
Zechariah 12:10 says Yahweh himself was pierced. How did the prophet intend his readers to understand this imagery, and what do we make of the passage being reapplied to the death of Jesus, Yahweh's Son? This episode explores the meaning of Yahweh's piercing, the Jewish messianic reading of the passage, and how the Gospel of John and Revelation reused it for completely new purposes.

| 455: Born According to the Flesh in Romans 1:3 | 16 oct. 2026 | 00:29:00 | |
Does Jesus Christ have two natures: a divine nature he has always possessed and a human nature he assumed at his birth? In other words, is Jesus 100% God and 100% man? Romans 1:3 states that Jesus was born from the seed of David according to the flesh. In this week’s episode, we will look closely at Romans 1:3 to discuss the birth of the Son of God, which has nothing to do with a preexistent Son coming down from heaven and assuming human nature.

| 454: Was Origen a Trinitarian? | 08 oct. 2026 | 00:35:13 | |
Origen of Alexandria was a famous Middle Platonist who introduced the idea of the Son's eternal generation, but did he believe in the doctrine of the Trinity? This week's episode examines what Origen believed and taught about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In short, no, Origen was not a trinitarian, and he was highly criticized by later trinitarians for his beliefs. He was a Platonically influenced subordinationist who believed the true God was the Father alone.

| 453: Unpacking John 17:5 | 01 oct. 2026 | 00:37:19 | |
What does Jesus mean when he speaks of the preexistent glory that he possessed with the only true God before the world existed? How does wisdom christology shed much-needed light on this disputed passage? This week's episode explores John 17:5 and reveals that it has nothing to do with conscious preexistence at all.

| 452: Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit | 24 sept. 2026 | 00:34:26 | |
What is the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, and why did Jesus say that it was unforgivable? This week’s episode examines the context of the controversy, particularly the accusations hurled at Jesus, who admits to casting out demons by the power of the Spirit. The Father empowered Jesus with the Spirit at his baptism, so to speak against the Spirit is to speak against the Most High God himself.

| 451: God Shares His Glory With Human Beings | 17 sept. 2026 | 00:24:17 | |
Within the Bible, the God of Israel shares his unique privileges, prerogatives, titles, name, and even his glory with his human agents. Some readers of Isaiah, however, are convinced that Yahweh never shares his glory with anyone at all. In this week’s episode, we will explore how the God of Israel glorifies his human agents, including Jesus Christ.

| 450: Was Theodotus of Byzantium a Trinitarian? | 10 sept. 2026 | 00:28:09 | |
Theodotus of Byzantium was a second-century teacher who came to Rome around 190 AD. Bishop Victor I of Rome excommunicated him for teaching that Christ was a man. Drawing on comments from his opponents, this episode reconstructs what Theodotus believed about God and Jesus Christ. It turns out Theodotus was a biblical unitarian.

| 449: "Is the Doctrine of the Trinity Taught in the Bible?" - Debate with Dr. George Antonios vs. Dr. Dustin Smith | 03 sept. 2026 | 01:40:25 | |
On August 29, 2026, Dr. George Antonios (affirmative) debated Dr. Dustin R. Smith (denying) on the topic "Is the Doctrine of the Trinity Taught in the Bible?" This was a respectful and cordial debate, resulting in the conclusion that, no, the doctrine is not explicitly taught by the biblical authors. BIO Dustin R. Smith, PhD, is a New Testament scholar at Spartanburg Methodist College.

| 448: God Shares The Divine Name with His Agents | 27 août 2026 | 00:29:19 | |
This week’s episode demonstrates how God shares his divine name (YHWH) with his authorized agents. These agents include heavenly angelic beings, the human Messiah, and even the physical city of Jerusalem. We also explore how other Jewish texts express their acceptance and agreement with the principle of agency. Jesus can be called Yahweh in his role as Yahweh's agent, without being identified as Yahweh himself.

| 447: How the Human Jesus Became Coequal with the Father | 20 août 2026 | 00:21:58 | |
This episode explores the development of Christology, beginning with the subordinate human Messiah taught by the New Testament authors and culminating in the coequal second member of the Trinity, who has two natures (from the fifth century). The Chalcedonian creed of 451 AD is not the doctrine of God and Christ presented by the biblical authors.

| 446: The Lamb as the Exalted Agent of God in the Book of Revelation | 13 août 2026 | 00:33:11 | |
This presentation explores how the Book of Revelation portrays the Lamb as God's highly empowered and highly authorized agent. This high Lamb Christology nevertheless regards the one seated upon the throne as the God and Father of the Lamb.

| 445: God is Uncreated, But Jesus is Not | 06 août 2026 | 00:31:03 | |
Does Jesus Christ possess the divine attribute of eternality? This week's episode contrasts Yahweh's eternality with Jesus Christ, who was created by God. The New Testament repeatedly affirms that Jesus came into existence in Mary's womb. God is uncreated, but the Son was brought into existence, proving he is not fully God.

| 444: God is Immortal, But Jesus Died | 30 juil. 2026 | 00:27:42 | |
Does Jesus Christ innately possess the divine attribute of immortality? This week's episode contrasts Yahweh's innate immortality (the inability to die) with Jesus Christ, who gave himself up to die on the cross. Jesus did something God cannot do: stop living. God gave Jesus immortality at the resurrection, but the Son is not innately immortal, proving he is not fully God.

| 443: God is Impassible, But Jesus is Not | 23 juil. 2026 | 00:20:19 | |
Does Jesus Christ possess the divine attribute of impassibility? This week's episode contrasts Yahweh's impassibility (the inability to suffer) with Jesus Christ, who suffered, bled, and died on the cross. Christ plainly taught that he would suffer, and he showed his wounds after his resurrection. The Son is not impassible.

| 442: God is Immutable, But Jesus is Not | 16 juil. 2026 | 00:22:23 | |
Does Jesus Christ possess the divine attributes of immutability and aseity? This week's episode contrasts Yahweh's immutability with Jesus Christ's repeated acts of changing. Christ plainly taught that he was not a se, meaning he was not an eternal Son. Despite God granting Jesus unending life at the resurrection, the Son is neither immutable nor possessed of aseity.

| 441: God is Omniscient, But Jesus is Not | 09 juil. 2026 | 00:25:12 | |
Does Jesus Christ possess the divine attribute of omniscience? This week's episode contrasts Yahweh's all-knowingness with Jesus Christ's repeated portrayal as lacking omniscience. Christ increased in wisdom, he was taught by God, he learned obedience, and he admitted his ignorance of the day and hour of the second coming. Despite God highly empowering the Son, the Son is not all-knowing.

| 440: God is All-Powerful, But Jesus is Not | 02 juil. 2026 | 00:26:36 | |
Does Jesus Christ possess the divine attribute of omnipotence? This episode examines how the biblical authors portray God as the all-powerful Almighty One, while never illustrating Jesus as his omnipotent equal. In fact, Christ often spoke about his inability to do things apart from God's leading and authority. Despite God highly empowering the Son, the Son remains subject to God.

| 439: Jesus' Death According to the Flesh (1 Peter 3:18) | 25 juin 2026 | 00:28:52 | |
First Peter 3:18 states that Christ was "put to death in the flesh." Does this language hint at the possibility that Jesus only partially died (i.e., in his flesh) while another unnamed part (or nature) continued living? This episode explores the meaning of Jesus' death in the flesh to determine whether Jesus is a God-man possessing two natures. Spoiler alert: he isn't.

| 438: Christ, the Bread from Heaven, in Context | 18 juin 2026 | 00:31:45 | |
John chapter 6 presents Jesus as the bread from heaven, the Son of Man who offers life to those who partake of his bread and wine. The episode grounds the Bread of Life discourse in its Jewish context—personified Wisdom in Proverbs, the Son of Man indwelt by heavenly Wisdom in 1 Enoch, and Philo’s view of manna as Wisdom—showing that the Son of Man preexists as personified Wisdom/Word rather than as a conscious person.

| 437: Most Biblical Scholars Reject Jesus as God | 12 juin 2026 | 00:21:47 | |
In this episode, we examine a striking shift in biblical scholarship: fewer and fewer experts now affirm that Jesus is the only true God. I compare two major surveys published in 2025 that reveal the same trend among everyday American Bible readers — a clear majority no longer believe Jesus is God. At the same time, interest in Unitarianism is surging.

| 436: Isaiah 9:6 In Context | 04 juin 2026 | 00:30:26 | |
While many interpreters see Isaiah 9:6 as a prediction of the birth of Jesus Christ, in its original context, the passage actually described King Hezekiah. This episode offers five arguments for reading this oracle concerning the Prince of Peace in terms of Hezekiah and his just reign in the 8th century BC.

| 435: Colossians 1:19 In Context | 28 mai 2026 | 00:24:13 | |
This episode explores the language and meaning behind the fullness of God dwelling in Christ (Col 1:19). Beginning by setting the verse in its context of Wisdom Christology, we turn to examine the verse's often-overlooked origins in Psalm 68:16. Finally, we look at Sirach's portrayal of God sending his wisdom to dwell in the temple, specifically by becoming incarnate in Simon the high priest. The result is a christologically-rich illustration of Jesus, the climactic embodiment of God's wisdom.

| 434: The Word Became Flesh at Christ's Baptism (John 1:14) | 21 mai 2026 | 00:27:25 | |
In this episode, I explain why I changed my mind on the timing of John 1:14, where the word became flesh. Although it is popular to assume that this occurred at Jesus' birth, a compelling case can be made that it took place at Jesus' baptism by John. We discuss that evidence in this week's episode.

| 433: Does Romans 10:13 Identify Jesus as Yahweh? | 14 mai 2026 | 00:22:58 | |
In Romans 10:13, Paul cites a passage about calling on the name of Yahweh, and he applies it to believers calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Does Paul intend with this quotation to identify Christ as Yahweh? No. This episode explores the nature of the quotation, how Christ is "Lord," and God's identity in Romans.

| 432: 1 John is Unitarian | 07 mai 2026 | 00:30:04 | |
First John is one of the best examples of unitarian theology in the New Testament. This episode examines how the Elder who composed 1 John and his recipients agree that God is one person, the Father alone. Christ is portrayed as the son of the one true God, and the Spirit is illustrated as God's own personal presence. First John is inconsistent with the doctrine of the Trinity.

| 431: God's Personifications Are Not Persons | 30 avr. 2026 | 00:32:47 | |
The biblical authors frequently personify God's attributes. This episode discusses the concept of personification, focusing on a dozen examples of the Father's personified attributes.

| 430: God and the Lamb in Revelation 22:3 | 23 avr. 2026 | 00:28:11 | |
To whom does Revelation 22:3 illustrate as receiving the highest form of worship, God or the Lamb? This episode explores this grammatically ambiguous passage by situating it within the broader theology of the Book of Revelation. We demonstrate that "latreuo" is intended for God alone.

| 429: The Memra in the Targums | 16 avr. 2026 | 00:33:04 | |
This episode explores how the concept of the Memra (Aramaic: "word") personified the actions of the transcendent God of Israel in the Jewish Targums. The Memra was not considered a seperate person alongside Yahweh in the minds of the targumists. We also consider the relevance of the Aramaic Memra to interpreting the prologue of the Gospel of John.

| 428: Is the Acts of Paul and Thecla Trinitarian? | 09 avr. 2026 | 00:31:42 | |
The Acts of Paul & Thecla, written between 160 and 190 AD, was one of the most popular apocryphal acts among Christian readers. This episode examines what the unknown author believed about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. After removing the later scribal additions, the Acts of Paul & Thecla appears to be a unitarian Christian document.

| 427: Who is the Most High God? | 02 avr. 2026 | 00:26:53 | |
Within the Old and New Testaments, the figure known as the Most High God is portrayed to be only one person.

| 426: Imitating The King Who Served (Philippians 2:5-11) | 26 mars 2026 | 00:34:39 | |
This sermon discusses the christological portrayal of Christ Jesus taking the form of the Isaianic Suffering Servant, as it is depicted in Phil 2:5–11. Instead of suggesting that a divine figure descended from heaven to become man, Paul illustrates King Jesus refusing to exploit his messianic privileges, choosing instead to embody the role of the Servant depicted in Isaiah 52–53. Paul expects his readers to imitate the example of Jesus, the human king who chose to serve others in obedience to the true God.

| 425: What "One" Means in John 10:30 | 19 mars 2026 | 00:27:47 | |
What did Jesus mean when he said, "I and the Father are one"? This episode explores the often-overlooked nuances of the cardinal number one in Greek — an adjective that takes on very different meanings depending on its grammatical gender. Rather than saying that the Father and the Son are one in person or one in being/essence, the Gospel of John illustrates a shared mission and purpose--a purpose Jesus later shares with his followers.

| 424: Does 2 Peter 1:1 Call Jesus God? | 12 mars 2026 | 00:31:08 | |
2 Peter 1:1 is one of the ambiguous passages that, due to grammar, may collapse God and the Savior Jesus Christ into a single person. This episode discusses this verse, examines the Granville Sharp "Rule," and considers the wider context of 2 Peter, including the clear statements that consistently distinguish God from Jesus.

| 422: The Verb "Pelah" Does Not Prove that Jesus is God | 26 févr. 2026 | 00:29:01 | |
This episode discusses how the Son of Man receives worship/service ("pelah"), yet dismantles the assumption that this Aramaic verb applies only to God. We demonstrate that the verb "pelah" is flexible, accommodating objects of worship that include the Most High God as well as worthy human beings. We survey the use of this verb in Daniel, in the Dead Sea Scrolls, and in Targum Onkelos.

| 419: The Development of the Noun "Ousia" | 05 févr. 2026 | 00:21:03 | |
In traditional Trinitarian language, there are three persons in the one "being/essence" of God (as expressed in the Greek noun "ousia"). However, "ousia" does not mean "essence" or "being" in the New Testament, nor in the Septuagint. This week's episode examines how the meaning of "ousia" evolved over time to justify the post-biblical doctrine of a tri-personal God.

| 418: The Development of the Noun "Hypostasis" | 29 janv. 2026 | 00:26:18 | |
In traditional Trinitarian language, the one being of God consists of three persons, as expressed in the Greek noun "hypostasis." However, "hypostasis" does not mean "person" in the New Testament, nor in the Septuagint.

| 417: Jesus is a Human Person Today | 22 janv. 2026 | 00:39:09 | |
This week's episode explores the state of Jesus' post-resurrection body. Jesus and the NT authors taught that the resurrection body remains human, indicating that Jesus is an immortalized member of the human race today. We examine the evidence for Jesus' enduring humanity while also engaging with scriptural objections that are sometimes raised.

| 416: Was Jesus in the Fiery Furnace? | 15 janv. 2026 | 00:28:56 | |
Several conservative Christians have argued or suggested that Jesus was the fourth figure who rescued the three Jewish boys from the furnace of fire in Daniel chapter 3. This episode explores the passage, identifying the unnamed figure as a heavenly angel that is described as "a son of the gods" (but not the messianic Son of God).

| 415: How Scribes Corrupted 1 Timothy 3:16 | 08 janv. 2026 | 00:35:35 | |
1 Timothy 3:16 is a well-known example of a scribal change that transformed a reference to Jesus into a reference to God. We explore this text and discuss how later scribes changed the passage, resulting in a much higher Christology than the author originally intended.

| 414: Unpacking Acts 2:22-23 | 01 janv. 2026 | 00:26:33 | |
Acts 2:22-23 offers an undiluted christology that best represents the beliefs of the New Testament authors. Peter proclaims that Christ was a real human being, whom God empowered to perform miraculous works. The passage also illustrates Jesus as preexisting in God's foreknowledge and predetermined plan, rather than consciously existing in heaven before his birth.

| 413: Unpacking John 20:17 | 25 déc. 2025 | 00:26:18 | |
John 20:17 is a straightforward passage in which the resurrected Jesus explicitly identifies that he has a God. Jesus was a unitarian, so he believed and taught his followers that his God was only one person, the Father alone. This episode examines John 20:17, demonstrating that it is incompatible with the doctrine of the Trinity.

| 412: Is the Oxyrhynchus Hymn Trinitarian? | 18 déc. 2025 | 00:27:28 | |
A 3rd-century Christian hymn was discovered among the Oxyrhynchus papyri, and the hymn contains worship offered to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This episode explores the Greek hymn, examines how it illustrates the one God, and demonstrates why it is not evidence for belief in the Trinity during the late 200s. Instead, the hymn appears to best fit a modalistic understanding of God.

| 411: Unpacking Luke 1:31-35 | 11 déc. 2025 | 00:32:23 | |
Gabriel's announcement to Mary contains several simple christological truths. This week's episode unpacks the exchange between the angel and Jesus' mother, examining the promised titles of Jesus, his role as the climax of the Davidic Covenant, Jesus' relationship with the Most High, and how the Holy Spirit brings Jesus into existence in Mary's womb. The Gospel of Luke produces a christology of a fully human Jewish Messiah, the son of God.

| 410: Was Athenagoras of Athens a Trinitarian? | 04 déc. 2025 | 00:31:38 | |
Athenagoras of Athens was a second-century Christian convert who wrote a famous apology in which he defends his understanding of God against claims of atheism. This week's episode explores what he believed about God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. The resulting conclusion is that Athenagoras was a Logos theologian with a unitarian understanding of God.

| 408: Is 3rd Corinthians Trinitarian? | 20 nov. 2025 | 00:33:18 | |
3rd Corinthians is a second-century Christian document that was written in Paul's name. The work offers a glimpse into the unknown author's thoughts on the creator God, Jesus' birth, and the Holy Spirit, while also detailing the doctrines the author deemed heretical. The resulting portrayal is an overlooked example of biblical unitarianism in the second century.
