Hard Bible questions, settled. Unflinching is a Bible podcast for people who want a real answer to the questions most preaching walks past. One hard question per episode, and we don't leave until the Bible has settled it. I'm Michael, an American who's lived in Israel for the last 20 years. I'm not a pastor and I'm not ordained. I'm a former school teacher who has spent his life in this Book, reading it from inside the country it was written in. Every episode takes one question people are genuinely afraid to ask out loud and works it through the text, word by word, in the King James Bible.

    Ep 18: Do Dogs Go to Heaven? Do Pets Go to Heaven? Will I See My Dog in Heaven? KJV | UNFLINCHING

    Do dogs go to heaven? Do pets go to heaven? Will I see my dog again? You buried her, and the answer you got was either a poem about a rainbow bridge or a man telling you it was just an animal with no soul. Neither one is in the Bible. This episode settles it out of the King James Version. What God actually calls the animals in the book of Job. Where He wrote them into a covenant, into the Ten Commandments, and into the law of Moses. Whether there are animals in the world to come at all — and that one is answered yes, in both testaments, and it is not close. Then the case against, built at full strength and not softened: the blood, Ecclesiastes 3:21, the spirit that goeth downward, and the fact that no animal is ever raised anywhere in Scripture. Every objection answered. A verdict at the end, and a door. UNFLINCHING — hard Bible questions settled by the Bible. One hard question per episode, a new episode every weekday. King James Version.

    Ep 17: Who Was Cain's Wife? Where Did Cain Get His Wife? Did Cain Marry His Sister? KJV Explained

    Ep 17: Who was Cain's wife? Where did Cain get his wife, and did Cain marry his sister? Genesis 4:17 says Cain knew his wife and she bare Enoch, and it never tells you where she came from. We settle it from the King James Bible in six words sitting on the very next page — Genesis 5:4, Adam begat sons and daughters — and Genesis 3:20, where Eve is called the mother of all living. Every objection gets read at full strength: the incest question, the law in Leviticus 18, who Cain was afraid of, the mark, the city, and the pre-Adamic race theory that has been used to teach that some people came from a lesser line. A law has a date on it, and this one has Cain nowhere near it.

    Ep. 15: Was Moses' Wife Black? Is Interracial Marriage a Sin? What the Bible Really Says — Numbers 12 KJV

    Is interracial marriage a sin? Was Moses' wife black? This episode settles both questions out of the King James Bible and nowhere else. Numbers chapter 12 says it twice in a single verse — Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married. Miriam objected. God came down in the pillar of the cloud, stood in the door of the tabernacle, and struck the prophetess of Israel with leprosy, white as snow. A whole nation sat still in the desert for a week until she was brought back in. Of every judgment available to Him, that is the one He chose. Every argument on the other side gets read out loud and taken at full strength. Deuteronomy chapter 7 and the command not to intermarry. Nehemiah tearing men's hair out. Paul telling the church not to be unequally yoked. And the so-called curse of Ham in Genesis chapter 9 that was preached from pulpits in America to justify slavery. Every one of them is answered from the text that raised it. Because every prohibition God gave about marrying out states its own reason inside the sentence, and the reason is worship, never ancestry. And the curse in Genesis 9 fell on Canaan — one son out of four — and never touched Cush, which is the very line Moses married into. Hard Bible questions, settled by the Bible. King James Version.

    Ep. 14: Is Tithing Required? Do Christians Have to Tithe 10%? What the Bible Really Says (Malachi 3, KJV)

    Episode 14. Is tithing required? Do Christians have to give 10% of their income? Settled out of the King James Bible and nowhere else. Numbers chapter 18 tells you who the tithe belonged to — a tribe forbidden to own land, paid in crops and cattle. Malachi chapter 3 is the verse quoted at you every week, and chapter 1 tells you who God was actually shouting at when He said it. Then search every letter written to a Christian church: Paul handles money more than once, organises a relief collection across provinces, and never once tells a Christian to tithe. What replaces it is harder, not easier. Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, not grudgingly and not of necessity. The New Testament does not lower the bar from a tenth — it removes the ceiling. UNFLINCHING — hard Bible questions settled by the Bible. One hard question per episode, a new episode every weekday.

Anywhere else in the world: findahelpline.com Is homosexuality a sin? What does the Bible say about homosexuality? Is being gay a sin? Can you be gay and Christian? Does God hate gays? You were twelve the first time you knew. And you have never once said it out loud inside a church building. This episode settles it from the King James Bible, and it does not flinch in either direction. First the question gets taken apart, because it is two questions welded together — the wanting and the doing. Confusing them is why a man walks out of a service believing God condemned him for something that happened in his head when he was twelve. Hebrews chapter 4 says Christ was tempted in all points like as we are, yet without sin. Temptation is not the sin. That gets settled before we touch a single verse about the act. Then the doing. Leviticus 18 and 20. Romans 1. First Corinthians 6. First Timothy 1. Named plainly in both testaments, and named again on the far side of the cross in letters written to Gentiles who never kept Moses. No softening and no dodging. Then the four strongest arguments on the other side, laid out at full strength with no corners shaved off any of them. Sodom's actual iniquity in Ezekiel 16. Jesus never saying the word. The disputed terms in the Greek. And Romans 1 being about idolatry. Two of them turn out true and incomplete. One does not reach far enough. One proves the opposite of what it was brought to prove. And then the part almost nobody preaches. Paul wrote ten names on that list in First Corinthians 6 — the drunkard, the covetous, the reviler, the extortioner — and the church took one of them and built a kind of human being out of it. Nobody was ever introduced as a covetous man. That is not the Word. That is men. The verdict comes in two halves aimed at two different people. If you came for a weapon, you are not getting what you came for. Scripture in this episode, King James Version: Hebrews 4:15-16, James 1:13-15, Matthew 5:28, Leviticus 18:22, Leviticus 20:13, Proverbs 6:16-19, Romans 1:24-28, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, 1 Timothy 1:9-10, Genesis 19:4-5, Ezekiel 16:49-50, Jude 7, Matthew 19:4-6, Galatians 6:1-2, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Romans 5:8 UNFLINCHING — hard Bible questions settled by the Bible.

Is divorce a sin? What does the Bible say about divorce and remarriage — and if you are divorced and married again, are you living in ongoing adultery right now? Tonight we settle it from the Word, King James Version. Genesis 2 and the only wedding God performed Himself. Deuteronomy 24 and the writing of divorcement — what that chapter was actually built to do. Then Christ gives the reason the rule exists at all: "Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so." The exception clause in full, with all three positions from honest men. Then the one nobody preaches to — the person who got left. "A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace." Then the ones with no vote. The children. Then the hardest page in the subject: remarriage. The verdict comes flat out. And before the door, I tell you who has been preaching it — I have been married and divorced. Then the well. Five husbands, and the Lord Jesus Christ telling her first.

    Ep 11: Are Tattoos a Sin? What Leviticus 19:28 Actually Means (KJV) | Unflinching

    Are tattoos a sin? What does the Bible say about tattoos — and does Leviticus 19:28 actually forbid the ink on your arm? If somebody has ever looked at your sleeve and made you feel like you did not belong, this hour is for you. We settle it from the Word, King James Version. There is exactly one verse in all of Scripture that forbids marking the skin, and almost nobody reads the first half of it: "Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh FOR THE DEAD." We go into the ground that verse was written into — the cutting for the dead, the prophets of Baal with their knives and lancets, and the statutes on either side of verse 28 that fence off sorcery and consulting the dead. Then we read the verse the man quoting it at you stepped over — Leviticus 19:27, the haircut and the beard. Nine verses up, the blend in his suit. And ten verses up, the command the Lord Jesus Christ called the second greatest of them all. We look at the marks GOD puts on people — the foreheads in Ezekiel, the Father's name in Revelation, and the counterfeit in the right hand or the forehead. We deal honestly with the claim that Jesus has a tattoo, and we do not give it to you, because it is not what the text says. Then it gets personal. Your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost and ye are not your own. God looketh on the heart. Whatsoever is not of faith is sin. And for the believer carrying something occult on their skin — the fire at Ephesus, and the handwriting blotted out and nailed to the cross. The verdict is given flat out, and it cuts both the accuser and the accused. Scripture in this episode, KJV: Leviticus 19:18-19, 26-28, 31 · Deuteronomy 14:1 · 1 Kings 18:28 · Jeremiah 16:6 · Matthew 22:39 · Ezekiel 9:4 · Isaiah 44:5 · Isaiah 49:16 · Revelation 13:16 · Revelation 14:1 · Revelation 19:16 · Revelation 22:4 · Galatians 6:17 · John 20:27 · 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 · 1 Samuel 16:7 · Romans 14:23 · Acts 19:18-19 · Colossians 2:14 · 2 Corinthians 5:17 · Romans 3:23 · Romans 5:8 · Isaiah 1:18 · Romans 10:9 · John 6:37 UNFLINCHING — hard Bible questions settled by the Bible.

Anywhere else in the world: findahelpline.com Somebody told a grieving mother her son is burning. She has carried it for fifteen years. And the man who told her could not have shown you the verse, because there isn't one. Is suicide the unforgivable sin? Do people who commit suicide go to heaven? Can a Christian who commits suicide still be saved? This episode settles it from the King James Bible. Where the teaching actually came from — the century, the book, and the men who built it. Why the machine that produced it runs on an idea Scripture never taught. Six men in the Word died by their own hand, and God wrote every one of those deaths down without ever writing the rule. Judas gets taken head on, because he is the name everybody throws — and the question nobody asks about him is WHEN he got lost. Then the hard half. Can a genuinely saved man do this. What actually damns a man, if it isn't the way he died. And what that lie has been doing to the living all this time. The verdict comes in two halves aimed at two different people. Take the half that wasn't meant for you and you'll walk out holding the wrong thing.
