The Gary DeMar Podcast

Gary interviews his longtime friend, Kirk Cameron, about how he came to embrace a new view of Christianity and the world. Kirk explains how he met Marshall Foster, how he came in contact with Gary DeMar, and what he is doing now. Spoiler Alert: He is taking his victorious Christian faith to the streets and libraries near you.

Gary responds to recent comments that people have made that Jesus is not currently reigning. After the Ascension, Jesus sat down at the Father's right hand, and is currently governing His Kingdom. Just because the Kingdom doesn't look like we expect it should, doesn't mean that we don't have a King.

Gary responds to comments made at an event with Todd Friel and several others about "dominionism" (with requisite scare quotes). While none of the commenters had a very accurate idea about theonomy or biblical law, they boiled it down to being "moralism."

Gary interviews the late Dr. Gary North about his own personal history and how he came to know and be mentored by Dr. Rousas Rushdoony. North and Rushdoony heavily influenced 20th century theology with their voluminous books about a great deal of topics. The legacy of Rushdoony is still being felt today, more than 60 years after his first book was published in 1959.

Reality and "truth" are being fragmented by modern political and social efforts and promulgated through the internet and social media. Non-Christian beliefs don't and can't offer anything in terms of a comprehensive worldview. On this repeat of a previous episode from 2021, the late Dr. Gary North joins Gary DeMar on today's episode with a discussion about today's fragmented world.

Gary discusses the recent advice by Alistair Begg about Christians attending gay "weddings." There is much more behind Pastor Begg's advice, and anyone who was paying attention wouldn't be very surprised. Carl Trueman also weighed in on the issue with an excellent article on First Things (read the article here: https://www.firstthings.com/web-exclusives/2024/01/can-christians-attend-gay-weddings)

Gary responds to a recent article by Pastor Robert Jeffress in Dallas, Texas about the world looking like it's getting very close to the "end." The biblical passages used by Pastor Jeffress have been used by nearly every generation to prove that their generation was living in the "last days." Jeffress also uses 2 Timothy 3, which Gary takes time to answer in detail. Get David Chilton's The Great Tribulation here: https://store.americanvision.org/products/the-great-tribulation

Gary discusses the concept of dominion and what it means. Many get upset by the word and the implications of man "dominating" the earth and other people, but what Gary points out is that dominion is an inescapable concept; there's always someone seeking to impose their idea of dominion on your and your family.

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.

Gary discusses an article that makes the claim that Hamas attacked Israel in order to stop the sacrifice of the "red heifer." Whether it's true or not, it's still a very interesting point that influences Christians, Jews, and now, Muslims. The problem is that there is no need, or Scriptural prediction, for any "red heifer." As the perfect Sacrifice, Jesus fulfilled everything necessary.
