Rekindling Podcast Rekindling Ministries

We (Shannon, Craig, Danielle, Erica, and Ian) continue the discussion on how to submit to our governing authorities, and how to be politically engaged, all with the right heart-set and mind-set.

This episode, we (Shannon, Erica, Ian, Danielle, and Craig) look into what it looks like for a Christian to respond to governing authority figures they do not agree with.

Here in this discussion, Shannon, Zach, and Craig discuss the biblical teachings on wealth, expectations for church leaders, preventing offense, and rebuke/correction, and how all this shapes our thoughts on pastors who use their wealth to buy lavish things.  This was in part due to Craig seeing recently the Instagram thread 'Preachers & Sneakers'.  : )

We finish our discussion of some of our personal 'fringe' theologies - this time discussing Annihilationism (the idea that those who reject God and are thrown into the lake of fire are consumed - their soul is destroyed and they cease to exist - rather than burning in conscious torment forever) and 'simple salvation' (what are the minimum requirements for God giving you eternal life?). 

Continuing the discussion of our favorite fringe, non-traditional, or debated theologies - in this episode, we talk about the theories around the Nephilim of Genesis and eschatological topics like pre-tribulation vs. two-wrath and pre-millennial vs. post-mil vs. a-mil.

Discussing tiers of theology (primary, secondary, and tertiary), young vs. old earth, micro-evolution vs. macro-evolution, and God granting free will and deciding to partner with humanity in order to accomplish things.
