Did Jesus REALLY Claim to Be God? With surveys showing nearly half of evangelicals questioning Jesus’s divinity, we’re tackling this crucial topic.
In this episode of Remnant Radio, we explore Christian theology through a historical lens with Dr. Mikel Del Rosario from Moody Bible Institute. We unpack Dr. Del Rosario’s book on Jesus’s bold divine claims—examining key scenes in Mark’s Gospel, addressing skeptic challenges from scholars like Bart Ehrman, and affirming the historicity of Jesus’s divine declarations.
Discover how Jesus’s miracles, authority, and role as eschatological judge set him apart, incorporating him into Israel’s Godhead as Yahweh incarnate.
Learn HOW to defend the deity of Christ with courage and compassion!

Hey Guys, Josh Lewis here. Have you ever wondered if the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit—like prophecy, healing, and tongues—really stopped after the apostles? Cessationists claim they vanished throughout church history, but that's a myth. In Remnant Radio’s new ebook, History of Spiritual Gifts: The Myth of Cessationism, I dive into church history to reveal the active use of spiritual gifts by early church fathers
