    Is Rejecting Zionism Anti-Semitic? Catholic Fired from Trump Commission

    🎙️ On this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, host Nate and the crew tackle the explosive controversy surrounding Carrie Prejean Boller — the Catholic commissioner who was removed from President Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission after pressing rabbis and Jewish witnesses on whether rejecting Zionism automatically makes someone anti-Semitic. She wouldn’t back down. They wouldn’t give a straight answer. And now she’s gone. Was she “hijacking a hearing for her own political agenda” as the commission chair claims, or was she asking the question everyone’s thinking? Nate lays out his position: he’s on the side of whoever doesn’t want to murder people. Radical stuff. The episode kicks off with a five-question Bible quiz about Jesus — and Nate promptly disputes the quiz-maker’s very first answer. (Spoiler: the sword comes from His mouth, sir. Revelation 19:15. We fact-checked you.) Then listener Evette asks a great question: Why do Jews consider the line of ethnic Jewishness broken when a Jewish man marries a Gentile woman — especially since Jesus Himself came from the line of Ruth, a Moabitess? Sean drops serious knowledge on Hebrew vs. Jewish identity, the line of Eber, matrilineal descent, and the distinction between being a Hebrew and being part of the covenant of Israel. Finally, the big theological throwdown: Why do other Christians hate on Calvinists so much? Nate draws on 14 years of experience in these debates to explain that Calvinism’s biggest problem might just be its PR department. Chris offers the reformed perspective, pointing to widespread misunderstanding of covenant theology as the root of the hostility. The practical takeaway? Calvinists and non-Calvinists preach the same gospel and arrive at the same conclusions about who’s saved — they only differ on the behind-the-scenes mechanics. The real enemy isn’t each other — it’s the popcorn-eating atheist watching Christians fight. Also featured: Nate’s microphone staging a full rebellion, Sean’s Foghorn Leghorn impression, a teen who committed murder over French fries (please share your fries, people), and a brief but important point about why Mary being “full of grace” doesn’t mean what Catholic apologists think it means — because Acts says the exact same thing about Stephen. Happy Valentine’s Day from the Ask A Christian Podcast — where the love is real, the mics are unreliable, and the theology runs deep. ❤️ 📚 Resources & Links: Bible Question Quiz video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/C4_z9iKVg1A Carrie Prejean Boller’s comments on Zionism: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUpAbUvAcWq/ Carrie Prejean Boller removed from Religious Liberty Commission: https://catholicreview.org/carrie-prejean-boller-removed-from-religious-liberty-commission-after-antisemitism-row/ Miss Rachel discussion video: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1E4tRvbBzE/ For more content, visit: https://www.askachristianpodcast.com TIMESTAMPS Plain Text Copy 00:00 - Intro 01:28 - Bible quiz: Five questions about Jesus 04:03 - Disputing question one: What does Jesus hold when He returns? 05:05 - Who talked most about hell in the Bible? 06:10 - Who was Jesus's first disciple? 07:29 - Jesus's last miracle before crucifixion 08:46 - What does Jesus's name mean in Hebrew? 15:13 - Carrie Prejean Boller fired from Trump's Religious Liberty Commission 23:21 - Is rejecting Zionism the same as anti-semitism? 30:00 - Mary "full of grace" — the Stephen comparison Catholics can't answer 35:48 - Why do Jews say Jewish identity breaks through Gentile marriage? 41:36 - Hebrew vs. Jewish identity and the line of Ruth 1:04:41 - Why do other Christians hate on Calvinists so much? 1:11:27 - Covenant theology and Calvinism's PR problem 1:29:10 - Does the Calvinist vs. non-Calvinist debate even matter?

    What Is Lapsarianism? (Millicent Sedra, AI Hoaxes, and the Future of AGI)

    In this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, host Nate and guest Chris dive into a wide-ranging discussion on theology, technology, and cultural discernment. We start by looking at the viral preaching of Millicent Sedra and discuss the biblical perspectives on women in the pulpit. Then, we get into the "niche" but fascinating world of Reformed theology to answer: What is Lapsarianism? We break down the logical order of God’s decrees—specifically Supralapsarianism vs. Infralapsarianism—and why Chris finds himself leaning toward Sublapsarianism. On the tech front, Chris shares his hands-on experience with "Moltbot" (formerly Open Claw), a precursor to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) that can actually run your computer for you like a real-life Jarvis. We also debunk recent viral AI hoaxes about "AI social media" and "AI religions," while discussing the real-world frustrations of rate limits and the massive computing power required for the future of AI. Plus, Chris gives a real-time update while his car navigates him to Chick-fil-A—including how the "self-driving" AI reacts when it knows you're talking about other AIs!

    How Can God Die? + The Logos Bible Software Controversy & The Catholic Exodus from X

    In this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, Nate dives into the deep theological waters of the Incarnation to answer a question that has stumped skeptics and believers alike: How can an immortal God die? We break down the mechanics of the hypostatic union and why the answer matters for your salvation. But it’s not all ancient theology—we’re also tackling the digital age's most recent "Christian cancellations." From the Logos Bible Software controversy involving "racist" discounts and LGBTQ-affirming authors to the Catholic Archdiocese of Liverpool announcing its departure from Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) for "ethical and moral reasons," we ask the hard question: Should Christians stay in the digital public square or head for the hills? Plus, we explore an Episcopal pastor’s controversial comments on her daughters' "access" to abortion and take a listener's question on whether the Bible truly teaches that women are equal to men. It’s an episode packed with truth, a little bit of "Bee-style" irony, and the answers you actually need. 📚 Resources & Links: Theological Breakdown: How Can God Die?

    Questions Christians Can’t Answer? (The Problem of Evil, Trinity, and Free Will)

    Can Christians truly provide logical answers to life's toughest questions, or do they just hide behind "mystery"? In this episode, Nate, Chris, and Sean tackle the heavy hitters: the logical problem of the Trinity, the existence of evil in a world governed by an all-powerful God, and whether divine omniscience cancels out human free will. The team dives deep into the nuances of "compatibilism" to explain how God's decree and human responsibility coexist. They also dismantle the "Logical Problem of the Trinity," arguing that the biblical view of a triune God is the only framework that truly accounts for both the "one and the many" in our reality. Finally, the guys pivot to a heated debate on the SAVE Act and Real ID—discussing whether these government mandates are necessary for election integrity or just the next brick in a "dystopian Lego castle" of surveillance. 📚 Resources & Links Evil and Theodicy by Cornelius Van Til: https://www.monergism.com/thethreshold/sdg/vantil/Evil%20And%20Theodicy%20-%20Cornelius%20Van%20Til.pdf Ask A Christian Podcast Website: https://www.askachristianpodcast.com ⏳ Timestamps 0:00 – Intro: Like, share, and subscribe! 0:14 – Can Christians actually answer "unanswerable" questions? 1:56 – Understanding "mystery" vs. "ignorance" in theology 3:55 – The Problem of Evil: Did God decree baby cancer? 6:25 – Primary vs. Secondary Causation: Why humans are liable for evil 8:30 – Is free will the "punt" answer to suffering? 9:40 – Why the atheist can’t even define "good" 14:30 – The Socratic Method: Dealing with "brainwashed" ideologies 16:41 – The Logical Problem of the Trinity: Why some versions fail 19:24 – The Biblical Trinity: Solving the "one and the many" 20:47 – Defining terms: One God, three distinct persons 24:02 – Tracing the Trinity from Genesis to the New Testament 25:05 – If God knows the future, do we have free will? 33:51 – Debunking the "Emerald Tablet" and ancient alien theories 49:45 – Real ID and the threat of a National ID database 58:40 – Government incompetence vs. targeted competence 1:01:10 – The "Lego Castle of Evil": Slippery slopes to a digital dungeon 1:16:26 – The SAVE Act: Election integrity or voter disenfranchisement? 1:29:42 – Final Pitch: Why Real ID and the SAVE Act create mission creep 1:41:00 – Discussion wrap-up: Voting machines, fraud, and the future Hashtags: #AskAChristianPodcast #Christianity #Apologetics #ProblemOfEvil #Trinity #FreeWill #BibleStudy #Theology #FaithQuestions #GodsGlory #Calvinism #SaveAct #RealID #ChristianLife #Truth

    National Prayer Breakfast & Guardian Blasphemy | Why So Many Different Bible Translations?

    In this episode of the Ask a Christian Podcast, Nate breaks down the fallout from the National Prayer Breakfast, contrasting Donald Trump’s theological statements with what can only be described as the "blasphemous mockery" and "devil's pact" claims coming from the political left and mainstream media like The Guardian. We discuss the spiritual state of a nation where the "Holy Spirit" is used as a political punchline and tragedy strikes in the most mundane places. In the second half, we get into the heavy lifting of biblical scholarship. Why are there so many different Bible translations? Is it a conspiracy, or is it evidence of the Bible's incredible preservation? We explore the "Queen James Bible," the Codex Sinaiticus, and the provocative history of why some religious texts (like the Quran) were burned to hide differences while the Bible remains an open book of history. 0:00 Intro: Trust me, bro, hit the button! 0:39 National Prayer Breakfast: Assessing Trump’s "Good Person" theology 1:08 The Gospel Check: What actually gets you to heaven? 3:14 The Guardian’s Blasphemy: Unpacking the "Devil's Pact" narrative 4:04 Spiritual Decay: The Olive Garden tragedy and national health 8:43 Political Blasphemy: Comparing lawyers to the Holy Spirit 14:27 Why Moses was barred from the Promised Land: A lesson in obedience 19:50 The Sin of Numbers 20: Moses, the rock, and the consequences of disobedience 26:39 Modern Miracles: Does God still part Red Seas today? 44:43 Translation Wars: Why are there so many versions of the Bible? 51:12 The Queen James Bible: Political agendas vs. Sacred Text 53:48 Denominations: Why do Christians have so many secondary differences? 59:10 Bible History: What is a Codex and how were the first books organized? 1:00:54 The Codex Sinaiticus: Exploring the world’s oldest Bible online 1:03:11 Christianity vs. Islam: Textual honesty vs. the burning of the Quran under Uthman 1:03:17 The Uthman Deception: Why the Quran was burned to hide textual variants 1:14:26 Honesty in Scripture: The "Long Ending" of Mark and textual integrity 📚 Resources & Links: Guardian Article: The way, the Trump and the lies: prayer breakfast displays US right’s devil’s pact - https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/feb/05/trump-religious-right-republicans Flashback: Ana Navarro to Avenatti: ‘You’re Like the Holy Spirit’ - https://grabien.com/story?id=342257 News Story: Olive Garden Cook Deep Fryer Incident - https://alto.gab.com/feed/ijr Manuscript Research: Codex Sinaiticus Online - http://www.codexsinaiticus.org Bible Tool: Compare Translations - https://www.biblegateway.com Hashtags #AskAChristianPodcast #NationalPrayerBreakfast #BibleTranslations #TheGuardian #Apologetics #IslamVsChristianity #Quran #CodexSinaiticus #GospelTruth #Christianity #BibleStudy #Theology #SpiritualWarfare #FaithQuestions #Scripture

    Is the Left Becoming More Radical? (The K-Means Study & The Elijah Schaffer Scandal) & 1 Kings 19

    In this episode of the Ask A Christian podcast, host Nate and "Church Father" Chris dive into a massive new study on issue polarization. Using K-means clustering, researchers tracked US trends from 1988–2024 and found that while the American Right has stayed relatively consistent, the Left has shifted significantly further toward radicalism. We discuss what this means for the "Overton Window" and how cultural issues are driving division globally. We also tackle the exploding controversy surrounding conservative commentator Elijah Schaffer and the "tradwife" movement. From allegations of an affair with influencer Sarah Setka to public meltdowns involving "black helicopters," we look at the irony and the fallout of this public crisis. Finally, we wrap up with a deep-dive Bible lesson on 1 Kings 19. Does God actually whisper to us? We provide a line-by-line exegesis of Elijah’s encounter at the cave to see what the text actually says about the "still small voice." ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – Intro: Like, Share, and Subscribe! 1:08 – The Overton Window: Has the Left moved further than the Right? 5:50 – Breaking down the K-Means Clustering study on polarization. 7:28 – 2008: The Obama era and the rise of political separation. 10:57 – How Christians can "Out-Narrate Nietzsche" (and why he’s a godless demon). 11:42 – Is The Gospel Coalition "Marxist Evangelicalism"? 14:21 – The Elijah Schaffer & Sarah Setka "Tradwife" scandal exposed. 16:56 – Psychotic breaks, affairs, and the "Black Helicopters." 21:05 – The Vatican, Epstein, and rare art collections. 23:47 – Do "Christian Communists" actually exist? 32:55 – Introduction to the 1 Kings 19 Exegesis: Elijah at the cave. 40:15 – Why the "Still Small Voice" might not mean what you think. 48:22 – Rebuking the idea of "personal revelations" and whispers from God. 55:00 – Recommended Reading: God Doesn't Whisper by Jim Osman. 55:40 – Closing Thoughts and Wrap-up. 📚 Resources & Links K-Means Study: A new measure of issue polarization using k-means clustering: US trends 1988–2024 - https://royalsocietypublishing.org/rsos/article/13/2/251428/479919/A-new-measure-of-issue-polarization-using-k-means Article: How Christians Can Out-Narrate Nietzsche - https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/christians-out-narrate-nietzsche/ Scripture: The Lord Speaks to Elijah (1 Kings 19:9-18) - https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Kings%2019%3A%209-18&version=ESV Hashtags #AskAChristianPodcast #Christianity #Politics #Polarization #Tradwife #ElijahSchaffer #BibleStudy #1Kings19 #Apologetics #Faith #OvertonWindow #Nietzsche #KMeansStudy #FaithQuestions #ChristianLife

    White Supremacy & Racial Pride vs. Boasting in the Lord & The Truth About Verbal Plenary Inspiration

    In this episode, Nate and the crew dive into the cultural obsession with "pride" and whether racial identity has a place in the life of a believer. From the double standards of "white supremacy" dog whistles to the biblical command to boast only in the Lord, we explore how Christians should navigate heritage without falling into the trap of sinful pride. Stick around as we shift gears into some lighthearted "food nonsense"—from the mysteries of Mexican Tajín seasoning to the "locust-like" eating habits of hungry teenagers. Finally, we tackle the heavy-duty theological topic of Verbal Plenary Inspiration (VPI).

    Rosa Parks Was a Communist? Nephilim Proven! + How Christians Should Handle Disputes

    Is the history we are taught in schools the full story, or a carefully crafted narrative? In this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, host Nate and the team dive into the "Day 1" expose of Black History Month, examining evidence that suggests Rosa Parks' iconic bus moment may have been a calculated move by radical political groups. We then pivot to a massive archaeological find: a 3,300-year-old Egyptian document that provides extra-biblical evidence for the existence of the Nephilim. If the Bible is right about the giants, what else is it right about? Finally, we address a growing scandal in the modern church. With charismatic leaders threatening to sue apologist Mike Winger, we look at 1 Corinthians 6 to answer the ultimate question: How should Christians handle disputes? Should believers ever take each other to secular courts, or are we called to a higher standard? 🕒 Episode Timestamps 00:00:00 – Intro: Welcome to the show & hit subscribe! 00:01:16 – Christian Leaders vs. Mike Winger: The lawsuit controversy. 00:02:53 – Rosa Parks Expose: Was it a planned publicity stunt? 00:06:03 – The radical political ties behind the civil rights icon. 00:10:06 – 1 Corinthians 6: Why Christians shouldn't sue each other. 00:16:40 – The high cost of seeking "justice" in secular courts. 00:22:43 – Nephilim Proven: The 3,300-year-old Egyptian document. 00:35:12 – The genetic reality of the "Seed of the Serpent." 00:55:20 – Spiritual warfare and the intersection of modern headlines. 01:08:50 – Goblins for Jesus?
