30 Minutes In The New Testament

Daniel and Erick talk about Judas and the danger of mixing religion and politics and the benefits of a low anthropology. They then move on to talking about the institution of the Lord's Supper, what it is and who it is for. Have a listen!

Daniel and Erick discus what is probably the most famous parable concerning the final judgment, the sheep and the goats. Is Jesus telling us that we enter heaven by what we do and go to hell by what we've failed to do? If not, what is saying? Jesus foretells His death again and a woman "wastes" expensive perfume to the horror of the disciples. They talk about it all. Have a listen!

The last few episodes Daniel and Erick have talked about tribulation and the end of all things. This week they look at two parables Jesus tells to illustrate what the second coming and judgment will look like. Ten virgins, oil for lamps, talents, wicked servants and the only way to go to hell. They discuss it all in this episode. Have a listen!

It's all eschatology in this episode as Daniel and Erick wrap up Matthew 24. Skies going dark, trumpets, a thief in the night and the Pentecost. That's right, Pentecost. How do we look at all these things and what impact do they have on how we believe and live. It's​​​​​​​ a different kind of episode. Check it out!

Daniel and Erick don't talk much about the tribulation and the end of all things but today is the day! It's all prophecy, destruction, and tribulation this episode... or is it? How should we read these verses that seem to cause fear and alarm in so many? They talk about it all in this episode. Check it out!

It's Christmas! And that means 40 Minutes in the Old Testament and 30 Minutes in the New Testament are coming together again. Daniel, Chad, and Erick tackle the song of Mary recounted in the first chapter of Luke's Gospel. There is a lot going on in these 10 verses and the guys have a lot of fun taking it apart. Have a listen and Merry Christmas!

After some non-spoiler Star Wars talk Daniel and Erick wrap up the "the woes" Jesus dished out on the Pharisees. Hypocrisy seems to be a big theme in what Jesus is saying. How and when do we judge? Is Jesus angry or broken-hearted... or both? It's all in this episode. Check it out!

Jesus is about to go after those who sit in the seat of Moses. What does that mean and why does Jesus tell the people to listen to them but not follow them? Tying up heavy burdens, slamming the door of heaven shut in people's faces and making converts twice the children of the devil are some of the indictments Jesus brings on the Pharisees. Legalism is full of loopholes and the legalism of Jesus' day is no different. Daniel and Erick discuss all of these things in this episode. Check it out!

Jesus is put to the test in a series of questions about taxes, the resurrection of the dead and the greatest commandment. What does His answer about money tell us about who we are? What does His answer about the resurrection tell us about our identities in the new creation? Why does He bring up commandments they didn't ask about in His answer to the Law. Then Jesus turns the tables and asks a question of His own. Daniel and Erick talk about all of this. Check it out!

Jesus tells two stories foreshadowing Israel's rejection of Him and His death. There is much about vineyards, dead Prophets, wedding feasts and imputed righteousness going on and the scandal of God's plan to save the world is on full display. Daniel and Erick talk about it all in this episode. Check it out!
