Texas state representative James Talarico claims to be a Christian and recently said a number of things publicly that actually pit the Bible against itself. Gary quotes some of them and comments, as well as discussing the current situation in Haiti.

Gary concludes his talk about Christian involvement in culture and politics by summarizing several popular objections. In his book, Myths, Lies, and Half-Truths, Gary answers 15 common objections that Christians give to not get involved, but he points out that God leaves His people here for that very reason. Heaven may be our ultimate home, but Ear…

Gary continues his talk about worldviews and Christian involvement. Going back to the French Revolution, he compares how France viewed and implemented their "new beginning" to how it was viewed and implemented in America. Secularists have long been trying to get rid of God, and sadly many Christians are aiding and abetting their efforts.…

In this first part of a recent talk, Gary discusses the worldview implications of Bible prophecy. Many Christians will claim that what we believe about the future doesn't matter, because "God wins" anyway. Gary disagrees that it doesn't matter and gives cultural, theological, and historical reasons why.…

Gary continues his interview with artist Dan Riedel about his friendship with Dr. Cornelius Van Til. Far from being a cold academic, Dr. Van Til was a warm, caring individual that wanted to see people come to Christ. He was every bit as much an evangelist as he was a professor. He well understood that the end goal of apologetics was not to win an a…

Gary interviews his long-time friend, Dan Riedel, who painted the artwork for the cover of the new book, The Objective Proof for Christianity. Dan knew Cornelius Van Til well and tells a few stories about his long relationship with the man. Get some of Dan's fantastic art for your home here: http://danielhillriedel.com/…

Gary continues discussing Pastor MacArthur's recent comments about Christian Nationalism. He seems to be confused about what most Christian Nationalists are actually saying, and overcorrects his mistaken assumptions with extreme defeatist language. He says "we lose down here." Gary says no, we have already won, thanks to the completed mission and w…

Gary begins discussing recent comments made by John MacArthur about Christian Nationalism, but he takes time to set up the full context. Christians often get frustrated by political engagement, but this doesn't mean we should be involved. Private conservations, evangelism, and discipleship are just as important to changing the system, but we don't …

What does cannibalism have to do with abortion? More than you might think. Both topics are logical conclusions and perfectly acceptable once the Christian foundation is removed. When nature, red in tooth and claw, becomes the interpretative standard, what actually separates the 4-legged animals from the 2-legged ones? Get Gary's book here: https://…

Gary expands a bit on a recent article he wrote called "Christians in the Crosshairs." Christian Nationalism has a much longer history than most people realize, although the definition has remained basically the same. In essence, anyone that wants their Christian faith to influence every area of life are suspect and considered to be Christian Natio…

Gary responds to a podcast episode where a biblical scholar reinterprets Paul as being purely "heavenly-minded." Claiming that Paul was convinced that a major eschatological event was in his future (especially in 1 Corinthians 7), the scholar believes that 1) Paul was mistaken, and 2) he was more concerned with spiritual realities than physical con…

Gary brings up a recent news article about certain Democrats pitching a fit over a Christian pastor praying for "repentance for our national sins." While the sins aren't mentioned, the Democrats filled in the blanks and made an assumption based on other things he said before. Their seething objection is more telling about themselves than the pastor…

Gary responds to a recent statement by attorney Ben Crump about redefining crime to help cut down on the targeting of blacks for criminal activity. Following in the steps of critical theory, Crump is falling right into the trap of the eternal victimhood of blacks everywhere in America. Gary responds and also quotes from Dr. Carol Swain's answer to …

Gary discusses a video from Christian apologist Frank Turek. In Matthew 16:27-28, Jesus says that "some who are standing here shall not taste death, until they see the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom." Turek states that this is referring to the Transfiguration, but then he also steps over to similar language in Matthew 24. Watch the video here: ht…

Gary interacts with Ron Rhodes new book, Bible Prophecy Under Siege. While Rhodes deals with the preterist view a bit in the book, it is really nothing more than a rehash of everything he has already written promoting the pretribulational rapture and the dispensational hermeneutic.
  continue reading
 
Gary answers two listener questions, one about the Bible itself and another about sovereign citizenship. People regularly claim that the Bible is a "religious" book, but unlike every other religious book the Bible roots itself in actual history. Dismissing the Bible as a religious work is special pleading that happens with no other works of history…

Gary interviews his longtime friend, Kirk Cameron, about how he came to embrace a new view of Christianity and the world. Kirk explains how he met Marshall Foster, how he came in contact with Gary DeMar, and what he is doing now. Spoiler Alert: He is taking his victorious Christian faith to the streets and libraries near you.…
  continue reading
 
Gary responds to recent comments that people have made that Jesus is not currently reigning. After the Ascension, Jesus sat down at the Father's right hand, and is currently governing His Kingdom. Just because the Kingdom doesn't look like we expect it should, doesn't mean that we don't have a King.

Gary interviews the late Dr. Gary North about his own personal history and how he came to know and be mentored by Dr. Rousas Rushdoony. North and Rushdoony heavily influenced 20th century theology with their voluminous books about a great deal of topics. The legacy of Rushdoony is still being felt today, more than 60 years after his first book was …

Reality and "truth" are being fragmented by modern political and social efforts and promulgated through the internet and social media. Non-Christian beliefs don’t and can’t offer anything in terms of a comprehensive worldview. On this repeat of a previous episode from 2021, the late Dr. Gary North joins Gary DeMar on today's episode with a discussi…

Gary discusses the recent advice by Alistair Begg about Christians attending gay "weddings." There is much more behind Pastor Begg's advice, and anyone who was paying attention wouldn't be very surprised. Carl Trueman also weighed in on the issue with an excellent article on First Things (read the article here: https://www.firstthings.com/web-exclu…
  continue reading
 
Gary responds to a recent article by Pastor Robert Jeffress in Dallas, Texas about the world looking like it's getting very close to the "end." The biblical passages used by Pastor Jeffress have been used by nearly every generation to prove that their generation was living in the "last days." Jeffress also uses 2 Timothy 3, which Gary takes time to…

Gary discusses the concept of dominion and what it means. Many get upset by the word and the implications of man "dominating" the earth and other people, but what Gary points out is that dominion is an inescapable concept; there's always someone seeking to impose their idea of dominion on your and your family. Read the articles here: https://americ…

The Gospel of Jesus was "a stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Gentiles" (1 Corinthians 1:23). Despite being in the cultural minority, the early church "turned the world upside down" (Acts 17:6). Gary discusses the Christian worldview, how we got where we are today, and how we get back to being world-changers.…
  continue reading
 
Gary discusses an article that makes the claim that Hamas attacked Israel in order to stop the sacrifice of the "red heifer." Whether it's true or not, it's still a very interesting point that influences Christians, Jews, and now, Muslims. The problem is that there is no need, or Scriptural prediction, for any "red heifer." As the perfect Sacrifice…
  continue reading
 
Gary discusses three recent items that address the ideas of the intellectual "elites" who believe they know how to understand and fix the world. Their primary solution is to eliminate you and others like you to stop you from messing up the world, but their borrowed capital only takes them so far.
  continue reading
 
Gary comments on a few recent video clips where leftist narratives are being exposed and challenged. He points out that the information is readily available, and opposing voices are being lifted against the mainstream media's consistent leftist propaganda. These voices need to be sought out, but they exist and are steadily gaining traction.…
  continue reading
 
Gary answers a listener question about the uses and abuses of Artificial Intelligence. Many Christians irrationally fear AI because they believe it will be used for some "end-time" scenario, but this misunderstands both information and intelligence. Thinking isn't neutral and doesn't happen in a vacuum, it all depends on the programming.…
  continue reading
 
Gary discusses an article by Wayne Grudem about 10 reasons to vote for Ron DeSantis over Donald Trump. While many of Grudem's points make sense, they don't factor in the current political "mood" prevalent in the country right now. Trump is certainly a lightning rod, which is exactly why he is opposed at every turn by the mainstream media.…
  continue reading
 
In Matthew 19:28 Jesus tells His disciples "Truly, I say to you, in the new world, when the Son of Man will sit on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel." Is Jesus on His throne now? If so, are we in the "new world"?
  continue reading
 
Gary talks about recent comments from Elon Musk and an English rapper named Zuby. Both have opinions about Christianity—although Musk's are somewhat contradictory—and how civilization absolutely needs it. There is a growing understanding that the promises of the Enlightenment and humanism have been left unfulfilled, with no future hope in sight.…
  continue reading
 
Gary discusses a recent question answered by Vivek Ramaswamy about the American government "propping up" Christianity and Christian Nationalism. Aside from the fact that it's so far from the truth, the questioner is asking from a secular/satanic/atheist perspective that has no basis for ANY morality other than "kill or be killed."…
  continue reading
 
Gary discusses a recent call by some atheists to get out to the polls and vote in 2024 to prevent Christian Nationalists from winning. The article claims Christians will put atheists in concentration camps and persecute them once they get in power. It is so far from reality, but this is nothing new for the fantastical atheist "worldview" that consi…
  continue reading
 
Gary continues his discussion of the confusion over how God's law should be understood and applied in modern times. It is impossible to say God's law no longer applies (which makes everyone a law unto themselves), but some seem to be saying this very thing. God's revealed truths are for His people forever (see Deuteronomy 29:29).…
  continue reading
 
Gary begins a two-part podcast about preterists and God's law. He is receiving a lot of comments of his Facebook page from some preterists who are claiming that since the OT is fulfilled, then God's law no longer has the same applications. This topic is in reality a worldview issue and encompasses much more than eschatology.…
  continue reading
 
A reading for the first week of Advent in Lectionary A is from Matthew 24. In a devotional published on Christianity Today's website by Craig Blomberg admits that while it sounds like the events in the second half of Matthew's version of the Olivet Discourse are for Jesus' first century audience, they really can't be because the "cosmic" language w…
  continue reading
 
Gary responds to a video where a pastor claims you must "rightly divide the Bible," based on 2 Timothy 2:15. By this he means that you must rightly divide the "people" of God into Jew and Gentile and understand New Testament passages in light of "the Church age." The Bible never speaks of a "Church age" but this does not prevent many from claiming …

Gary summarizes the initial two podcasts from the Covenant Hermeneutics and Biblical Eschatology series with Kim Burgess. Now that the first volume of the book is available, this recap was due for a re-run. While many people were enthused and appreciative of the interviews, others have taken issue with them. Gary explains the theological method of …

God created trees. He made them for us: for home building, decoration, shade, construction of fences, tables, chairs, sheds, and so much more. Just because pagans might have carved up a tree to make an image of a false god to be worshipped does not mean that we can’t use them to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, God’s “indescribable gift” to us …
  continue reading
 
Gary discusses the classic Christmas film, Miracle on 34th Street. He points out many instances of how this film (and every film for that matter) presents opportunities for thinking through worldviews and Christian apologetics. Many questions are asked throughout the movie that may seem silly at first glance but are actually quite perceptive and he…
  continue reading
 
Gary discusses an article written by a woman who regrets pursuing her own goals and fulfillment in the workforce and being single. Ideas have consequences, but some ideas have very serious lifelong consequences, as this woman is quickly learning. In many ways, the Bible esteems maturity as one of the primary goals of life in this world: learning th…
  continue reading
 
Stories keep piling up about the self-appointed "experts" going out of their way to enforce everyone to think and believe what they demand. Newspeak and media brain-washing are the tactics, but many regular citizens are (finally) starting to push back and question the "upside down" world of the cultural elite.…
  continue reading
 
Like many in Israel at the time of Jesus’ birth, Christians today are looking for a political savior to rescue them and break the chains of tyranny. Christian leaders tell people to look up and ahead to Jesus’ second coming and rejoice that their “redemption is drawing near” (Luke 21:28). But was this the response of Simeon and Anna? Were they rejo…

One from the archives. Gary answers an interesting question that was submitted to another podcast. The question is tied to Jesus' words in Matthew 24 about "this generation" and the Pharisees as "brood of vipers" in Matthew 23. This question, which Gary had never heard before, caused a lot of discussion on the show and revealed that far from questi…

It is often claimed by revisionist historians that America was founded not on Christian principles but on Enlightenment ones. This is a huge overstatement. It is more correct to say that America was founded on both, however even the Enlightenment-influenced Founders were products of their time, which means they were also influenced by Christian pri…

Still in his basement, Gary answers a listener question about the "number of the beast," Nero, and Titus. The listener asks about Pastor Phillip Kayser's view that while Nero could be a candidate, he believes the Roman General (and later Emperor) Titus works better for 666. Gary discusses this and much more about this most notorious number from Rev…
  continue reading
 
Gary is recording from his basement because the usual recording studio is occupied. He takes the time to discuss a recent article by a Jesuit priest claiming that Donald Trump is the "antichrist." As usual, these writers never mention previous failed claims (many, many of them) as well as never defining "antichrist" biblically.…
  continue reading
 
Part Two of Two. Gary is interviewed by Paul Edward Stevenson on the Last Man Standing radio show about Israel, Hamas, and popular prophecy. Most people who believe that the events in Gaza right now are fulfilling Bible prophecy have no idea what their system actually says about what awaits Israel in the "end times."…
