    #12: AC - suffered under Pontius Pilate

    Intro: J. Gresham Machen is quoted as saying: “‘Christ died’ - that is history. ‘Christ died for our sins’ - that is doctrine. Without these two elements, joined in an absolutely indissoluble union, there is no Christianity.” The 2nd stanza of the Apostles’ Creed proceeds from Christmas to Good Friday to Easter.  As we continue through the Apostles’ Creed - we are now at the line:  Suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. Today - we’ll untangle the events of Good Friday. Key points: BackgroundThe trialThe crossScripture quoted: Matthew, chapters 21-28Mark, chapters 11-16Luke, chapters 19-24John, chapters 12-21Isaiah, chapters 52-53More sources / notes: Martin Hengel, Crucifixion: In the Ancient World and the Folly of the Message of the CrossConnect: linktr.ee/3onefive

    #11: Jude 1-4 - A Warning Against Wolves

    Intro: We find plenty of warnings in Scripture to be on the lookout for those who will lead the church astray.  Jude’s letter is one such warning.  This is a remarkably rich letter - only containing 25 verses and about 600 words in the ESV.   Key points: A call to contendOn WolvesThis call is to every person in the churchScripture quoted: Jude 1-4Eph 4:12Ephesians (5.6-7,11)More sources / notes: Thomas Manton, Commentary on JudeWilliam Jenkyn, An Exposition upon the Epistle of JudeJohn Bunyan, Pilgrim’s ProgressThomas Schreiner, Commentary on 1&2 Peter and JudeConnect: linktr.ee/3onefive

    #10: Apostles' Creed - His only Son, our Lord, conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary

    Intro: Today, as we continue through the Apostles’ Creed, you might recall that the first few episodes focused on the first stanza that described God - and that declaration of God separates the Christian faith from those religions that are not monotheistic, such as Hinduism and Buddhism.  The second stanza, moves the focus on to Jesus - and here we find those points that separate Christianity from the other monotheistic religions of Judaism and Islam. Key points: His only SonOur LordBorn of the virgin MaryScripture quoted: Genesis 3:15Isaiah 7:14Isaiah 9:6Matt 16:13-16John 3:16More sources / notes: CS Lewis, Mere ChristianityJ Gresham Machen, The Virgin Birth of ChristNorm Geisler and Frank Turek, I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be an AtheistAA Hodge, The Westminster Confession of Faith: A CommentaryHerman Bavinck, Reformed DogaticsThe Apostles’ CreedConnect: linktr.ee/3onefive

    #9: Machen's The Virgin Birth of Christ, chapters 3-5

    Intro: In our first 2 episodes on Machen’s The Virgin Birth of Christ - we covered the first 2 chapters of his book wherein Machen diligently established an early date for the birth narrative and demonstrated that Luke’s birth and infancy narrative are cohesive with the rest of Luke’s writing.   In the next 3 chapters, we will read that, though cohesive - there is still this unique style to Luke's section on the birth and infancy narrative that needs to be addressed.   Today - let’s pull that 3 chapter arc together.   Key points: Intro to MachenChapter 3: Characteristics of the Lucan NarrativeChapter 4: The Hymns of the First Chapter of LukeChapter 5: The Origin and Transmission of the Lucan NarrativeMore sources / notes: PDF of The Virgin Birth of ChristPaperback book of The Virgin Birth of ChristBrief bio on MachenMachen, Mountains and Why We Love Them Connect: linktr.ee/3onefive

    #8: Apostles' Creed - Maker of Heaven and Earth

    Intro: Today we continue working our way through the Apostles’ Creed with “Maker of Heaven and Earth”.  Our question today - why is there something rather than absolutely nothing? Key points: The universe, and everything in it, hasn’t always been here.How did the universe get here: (1) it created itself or (2) it was created.God also created humans in His image.Why does that matter?Quoted / Referenced Scripture: Gen 1Matthew 5:21-22Mark 12:31John 14:9Col 1:15Heb 1:3More sources / notes: The Apostles’ CreedThe Nicene CreedR.

    #7: Apostles' Creed - God the Father Almighty

    Intro: Today we continue through the Apostles’ Creed with - I believe in God the Father Almighty. And the question we need to ask: “Are the coffee shop critics right to declare that since this God is unable to create a rock so big that he can’t lift it - that He’s really not Almighty?” Key points: God the FatherGod AlmightyWhy does God reveal His nature to us?Quoted Scripture: Gen 17:1Exodus 3:15Exodus 34:6-7Deut 3:24John 3:16-17More sources / notes: The Apostles’ CreedR.

    #6: Book review - Christ Crucified by Thomas Schreiner

    Intro: There is no shortage of books, commentaries, or articles on Paul’s letter to the Galatians - but when it came time for me to teach a brief series on Galatians - my primary sources distilled down to four authors: two from Europe - and two with Oregon connections.  In this episode, we review one of those books from an author who was once an Oregonian.   Key points:  123 page text, published in 2024.It’s brief, concise, and topical in its approach to Galatians.This book keeps the main thing the main thing. It simply brings the key points to center stage. Key themes follow the order of Galatians:Stars with the conflict that Paul is facingMoves to Paul’s Gospel presentationRenewed life in Christ that cannot be obtained by works of the lawI highly recommend this book More sources / notes: Christ Crucified by Thomas SchreinerGalatians - a commentary by Thomas SchreinerConnect: linktr.ee/3onefive

    #5: The Virgin Birth of Christ by Machen - Chapter 2

    Intro: When discussing the reliability of the gospel narratives - most of us simply appeal to the field of NTTC. But Machen, in his work, The Virgin Birth of Christ, does the heavy lifting.  In turn, that heavy lifting gives us some pretty heavy reading. Chapter 2 outline: Outside objectionsDrastic change in language use from 1:1-4 to 1:5-2:52.Marcion’s version of Luke that didn’t include the birth narrative.  Due to the particular view that he did not believe that Jesus had actually been born.  Another obscure example: 1195 manuscript of the Armenian translation of Ephraem’s Commentary on the Diatessaron.  Machen then points to Titian’s Diatessaron, a Gospel harmony, dated to the 2nd century, that included Luke’s virgin birth account.  “Inside” objections - a critical look at Luke’s own words“Very pedantic” views of Acts 1:1 and Luke 1:1.Proper translation of Luke 3:22:“Well pleased” vs. “begotten thee”Option 1: “...with whom I am well pleased” (Option 2: “...this day I have begotten thee” (a possible reference to Psalm 2:7)Machen makes the case for Option 1.What was the significance of the Holy Spirit descending on JesusThen particulars in Luke’s words from Luke 3:23:“as was supposed” Does this phrase presuppose (or not) the virgin birth narrative?“Began” - began what?Machen will extend into a side discussion on the importance of the baptism of Jesus as the start of His public ministry. Parallels to the descriptions to the start of the John the Baptist’s and Jesus’ ministries.  Gradual addition / agglomeration over timeMachen addresses briefly. Conclusion“If literary criticism has established anything at all, it has established the fact that the narrative of the birth and infancy is an integral part of the Third Gospel.” More sources / notes: PDF of The Virgin Birth of ChristPaperback book of The Virgin Birth of ChristThe Diatessaron of TatianConnect: linktr.ee/3onefive
