Why is there evil?

5/2/2024
In this podcast, we discuss the two types of evil - natural and moral - and their various impacts on humanity. Realizing God's role in these forms of evil is the first crucial step towards understanding the ultimate spiritual resolution. In this episode, we discuss natural disasters and personal disasters. We answer tough questions like : If God knew that creation would result in evil, why did He create in the first place? The answers lie deep within the scriptures, unraveling the purpose of humanity as seen in eternity past, and God's responsibility towards sin and moral evil. We discuss God's promise of a future free from suffering and pain, and the prospect of final unity and reconciliation of everything. We cap off the episode with verses from the Romans that encapsulate the ultimate Christian expectation - all being shown mercy and leading to an eternal glorious world. Tune in to this enlightening episode if you're seeking a deeper understanding of God's plan, or struggling with the existence of evil.

Embark on an intriguing journey as we explore the enigmatic world of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) from a biblical perspective. Engage with us as we discuss the evolution of such phenomena and the stigma surrounding them while debating whether they are extraterrestrial in nature or unidentified angelic phenomena.

We encourage listeners to seek understanding from scripture, avoid obsession, and rely on the Lord answers. This discourse is an exploration into the intersection of biblical narratives, UFO phenomena, and the unseen spiritual war between the angelic and demonic realms. We all need to challenge our understanding of supernatural phenomena and the role it plays in our physical world.

A Christian Perspective on DEI

1/31/2024
Welcome to an exciting episode of "Current Events and Christian Expectations," in which we deep dive into the concept of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) through the lens of Holy Scriptures. In an era where DEI is rapidly gaining momentum in corporate America, we explore its significant implications within the principles of individual capability and merit. This thought-provoking episode guides you through time, quoting various influences including Alexis de Tocqueville's Democracy in America, billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman, and tech tycoon Elon Musk, all expressing concerns about the DEI trend. Witness an interesting blend of biblical guidance, historical accounts, and modern perspectives to grasp the age-old human struggle between the desire for freedom and equality. Expand your understanding of hierarchies in the divine arrangement, commencing with the Trinitarian hierarchy - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The discourse transitions into exploring hierarchies within mankind, angels, and the animal kingdom, illustrated through biblical representations and enriched with enlightening verses from numerous books in the Bible. Divine Equality and Hierarchy in God's CreationDelve into the concept of divine equality wherein unique roles are assigned to each of us, just as distinct roles exist within the divine Trinity. Drawing parallels between God's divine design and the organization of the New Testament Church, the episode emphasizes the beauty and significance of each role, irrespective of its hierarchical level. Our in-depth scriptural exploration elucidates the significance of accepting and excelling in our unique capacities. It reinforces the joy of flourishing in the roles assigned to us by God and the blessing of hearing the divine commendation, "Well done, good and faithful servant". Whether you are a seeker, a scholar, or someone intrigued by the mysteries of the divine realm, our comprehensive analysis of biblical hierarchies will deepen your comprehension and appreciation of the intricate designs within God's divine realm and His creation.
