    Christ Is the End of the Law: Why Christians Aren't Under Torah: Ep. 70

    Should Christians still observe the Torah? In Episode 68 we sat down with Nathaniel Alexander — and genuinely could not agree. This is where we land. In this follow-up, David and Jonathan walk back through that conversation with their Bibles open and their convictions on the table. Who was the law of Moses actually given to? What did Paul mean when he said Christ is the end of the law? And if we aren't bound to the letter of the Torah, does that mean anything goes? They work through Galatians 3, Romans 6, and 2 Corinthians 3 to show that the law was never the source of righteousness — it was a tutor pointing to Christ. The law was powerless because of the flesh. What it could not do, God did by sending His own Son. Sanctification isn't earned by keeping ceremonial law; it's the work of the indwelling Holy Spirit. Obedience becomes the natural outflow of faith, not the price of it. If you only saw the Shorts from Episode 68, watch the full conversation first — this episode assumes it. ▶️ Our full conversation with Nathaniel Alexander (Ep. 68): ⁠Do Christians Have to Keep Torah?⁠📖 We're not here to win an argument.

    Do Christians Have to Keep Torah? We Couldn't Agree...Ep. 68

    Do Christians Have to Keep Torah? We Couldn't Agree — and that's the point. Jonathan, David & guest Nathaniel Alexander go head-to-head on one of the most divisive questions in the Church today: Is the Law of Moses still binding for Christians? From justification vs. sanctification to Acts 15, Matthew 5:17, and New Testament passages on the law, this is our most honest, tension-filled conversation yet. This isn't about winning a debate — it's about wrestling with Scripture together. Whether you lean toward Torah observance, Hebraic Roots, or see the Law as fulfilled in Christ, you'll hear both sides challenged with grace and truth. 🔍 In this episode: 00:00 — Do Christians have to keep Torah? 02:15 — What does “fulfill” really mean? (Matthew 5:17) 09:40 — Justification vs. Sanctification 16:20 — Acts 15 & the Jerusalem Council 24:10 — Is Torah observance required for Gentile believers? 32:00 — Where we still disagree 💬 What do YOU think?

    The Trinity Explained: The 'Triple Stamp' Every Christian Should Know. Ep. 67

    Is the Trinity a mystery to explain away — or the clearest truth Scripture gives us about who God is? In this episode of Deformed Theology, we sit down with Daniel Justice, a former outspoken atheist who came to faith through an intensive study of the Bible. Daniel walks through the Trinity not as abstract theology, but as the "triple stamp" woven through every page of Scripture — and shows how the tabernacle itself points to the three-in-one nature of God. In this episode we cover:🕯️ How the Trinity isn't a later invention, but rooted in the text📖 The structural parallel between the tabernacle and our own design🧠 Why understanding the Trinity changes how you read every story in the Bible🙌 Daniel's testimony — from militant atheism to Trinitarian conviction Whether you're wrestling with the doctrine of the Trinity, curious about modalism vs. the biblical view, or just hungry to go deeper beyond denominational labels, this one's for you. 👉 Subscribe for new episodes every Monday, and let us know in the comments: what's the hardest part of the Trinity for you to understand? #TheTrinity #ChristianApologetics #BibleStudy #DeformedTheology #TheTrinity #TrinityDoctrine #ChristianApologetics #BibleStudy #DeformedTheology #JesusChrist 00:00 Introduction 00:20 Welcoming Daniel Justice 03:11 Daniel's Background and ChurchPlanting 05:59 Daniel's Testimony: From Atheismto Faith 08:59 Understanding the Transition toBelief 12:13 The Nature of God's Revelation 14:58 Exploring the Consistency ofGod's Word 17:54 The Unchanging Nature of God 21:11 The Cost of Redemption 25:04 Understanding the Trinity 45:47 The Tabernacle Model and theGospel 59:43 Family Discipleship and Education

    Excess Does Not Equal Blessing: A Gluttonous Discussion Ep. 66

    Is gluttony really a sin — or just an excuse to feel guilty about food? In this episode, Jonathan and Nate go beyond the "eat less" talk and get to the heart of what gluttony actually is in the Bible: not a food problem, but a contentment problem.We unpack what Scripture actually says about gluttony in the bible, why the quail in the wilderness (Numbers 11) is one of the most overlooked warnings in Scripture, and how the "perverse pleasure of consumption" is really a failure to trust God's provision. If you've ever wondered what is gluttony — or why the church rarely talks about it — this conversation is for you.True contentment is found in Christ, not in the next bite. Let's go deeper together.🙏 Deformed Theology exists to help believers go deeper into the gospel beyond the church walls — beyond denominations, beyond debate.

    Why the Holiest Man on Earth Was Also the Most Humble: Holiness & Humility Ep.65

    What does it mean to be holy — really? Not the self-righteous version that pushes people away, but the biblical kind that draws you closer to God. In this episode, we walk through Numbers 12 and the story of Moses — the man God called the most humble on earth. The surprising part? His humility didn't come from trying harder. It came from seeing God more clearly. The closer Moses got to the presence of God, the smaller he became in his own eyes. We also tackle: Why cheap grace can't produce holiness — and what Bonhoeffer meant by "costly grace"How 2 Peter 1:4 reframes holiness as participation in the divine nature, not behavior modificationThe real relationship between holiness and humility (and why pursuing one without the other is dangerous)Why Exodus 33 shows us that God's presence is the source of both — not our effortIf you've ever wondered whether pursuing holiness will make you proud, or if cheap grace is enough, this conversation is for you. 📖 Scriptures Referenced: Numbers 12:3, 2 Peter 1:4, Exodus 33, Leviticus 19:2, Hebrews 12:14 ⏱️ Timestamps:0:00 — What holiness actually means (being set apart)3:45 — Moses: the holiest and most humble man alive8:20 — Cheap grace vs. costly grace14:10 — 2 Peter 1:4 & participating in the divine nature19:30 — Why true holiness produces humility, not pride25:00 — Exodus 33: God's presence as the source30:15 — Closing: walking in the Spirit 🔔 New episodes every Monday at 9 am Central. #Holiness #Humility #Moses #BiblicalTeaching #ChristianPodcast #DeformedTheology

They cover: Why the Bible is our authority and spiritual nourishmentHow Scripture reveals God’s character and willThe importance of prayer and disciplined Bible readingThe SOAP Bible study methodWhy observation must come before applicationHow all Scripture points us toward ChristThe difference between obedience motivated by love and legalismHow God’s Word equips us to serve and encourage othersWhere else would we go?
