The Bible Show Sam and Will

Sam and Will discuss the Israelites' idolatrous construction of the golden calf. Far more scandalous than the sanitized Sunday school versions of this story, the Israelites grievously offended and betrayed the Lord. In all likelihood, they were recreating the despicable worship practices of the Egyptians and attributing these drunken perversions to Yahweh's character. How will God and Moses respond?

Sam and Will discuss the three types of Old Testament Laws: (1) the moral law, (2) the civil law, and (3) the ceremonial law. How does the gospel of Jesus change our relationship to these laws? Are we still expected to follow the moral law? Are we rebelling by failing to continue the temple sacrifices? Should we still be imposing the criminal code & punishments of the Old Testament? Join us to find the answers.

Sam and Will discuss the amazing sovereignty behind the design of the tabernacle. Built nearly fifteen centuries prior to the birth of Jesus, the design of the tabernacle serves as an architectural roadmap for the Gospel of John. From the bronze altar to the Ark of the Covenant, the life of Jesus serves to construct a FAR GREATER tabernacle and temple.

Sam and Will walk through a fascinating discussion on why God chose each of the elements of the tabernacle. Each piece of furniture was designed to point our hearts and minds toward God and His gracious provision. When used as a guide for our personal devotional time, the pathway through the tabernacle will lead us into the renewing presence of God.

Sam and Will discuss the Ark of the Covenant. This is the most holy piece of furniture placed inside the Tabernacle of God. Why would God ordain this peculiar design and its bizarre list of contents? As we will discover, the Ark of the Covenant was meant to foreshadow the empty tomb of Jesus Christ and the power of His resurrection to bring our triumph over death. Join us to learn more.

Sam and Will discuss the evolution of Dr. Richard Dawkins. Ever since publishing The God Delusion in 2006, Dawkins has served as a leader of the "new atheists" movement. For years, he expressed a vitriolic and condescending contempt for both God and religion. Now, in light of the advances of both Islam and the "cult of woke," he expresses real sadness over the loss of cultural Christianity in the West.
