    Is There a Line From Women Pastors to LGBT? Part 1

    Churches didn’t affirm same-sex marriage overnight. It started somewhere. In this episode, we trace the historical and theological road from one compromise to another.    We walk through church history to see how denominations shifted — from the ordination of women to the affirmation of LGBT practice. What was the connecting thread?    The answer centers on Galatians 3:28 — “neither male nor female… for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” A beautiful verse about salvation and unity in Christ. But when it’s misapplied to erase functional role distinctions between men and women in the church, the fallout is predictable.    We explain how removing God-given order in the home and church 1 Tim 2:12, 1 Cor 11:3 logically erodes the rest of God’s design for gender and sexuality. If “neither male nor female” cancels pastoral qualifications, what stops it from canceling marriage definitions?   This isn’t about motives. It’s about trajectory. Ideas have consequences, and history has receipts.   In this episode:   ·      The Historical Pattern — From Methodist, Presbyterian, and Anglican splits: how it began. ·      The Hermeneutic Shift — How Gal 3:28 is moved from salvation to structure   ·      The Logical Outworking — Why functional roles and sexuality stand or fall together  ·      The Biblical Line — What Scripture actually says about order, headship, and design   Distribution of gifts ≠ government of gifts. And when order is dismissed, disorder follows. 1 Cor 14:33    Listen with your Bible open. Test everything. 1 Thess 5:21  Scriptures discussed: Gal 3:28, 1 Tim 2:12-14, 1 Cor 11:3, 1 Cor 14:34-40, 1 Tim 3:1-7, Rom 1:26-27  Connect: Subscribe, share with your elders, and leave a review if this helped you think biblically.

    66 Books? Why not 73? Who Chose Your Bible?

    How did we end up with 66 books in the Bible? Who decided? Why are Catholic and Protestant Bibles different? And what about the “lost books” like Tobit, Maccabees, or the Gospel of Thomas? In this episode, we trace the real story behind the formation of the Bible’s canon — Old Testament, New Testament, and the controversial Apocrypha. No conspiracy theories. Just history, theology, and the providence of God.You’ll discover: OT Canon: How Israel recognized Scripture before Jesus was born.NT Canon: Why the early church rejected some gospels and kept others.Apocrypha: What it is, why it’s in some Bibles, and how Protestants should view it.The Big Question: Is the canon closed? Can books still be added?This isn’t just for scholars. If you read the Bible, you need to know why these 66 books — and not others — are in your hands. Because “the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life” only works if we know which letters God actually breathed out. 2 Tim 3:16 #BibleCanon #Apocrypha #LostBooks #HowWeGotTheBible #OldTestament #NewTestament #ChurchHistory #BibleStudy  Support the show

    How Did We Get the Bible? | Biblical Interpretation Pt. 3

    The Bible didn’t fall from the sky as one book.  40 authors. 66 books. 1,500 years. Visions. Theophanies. Jesus Himself. In this episode we keep going in our Biblical Interpretation series and ask: How did this book actually come to us? If God is the Author, what was the process? Heb 1:1-2Because if you don’t know how the Bible came, you’ll misread what the Bible says.   Listen: Every podcast app Watch: YouTube Watch: liveunsettled.org #Bible #Scripture #BiblicalInterpretation #Inspiration #Jesus #LiveUnsettled #Podcast #GodsWord Support the show
