Episode 194 - False Promises

from The Gospel Underground Podcast Hosted by Reid S. Monaghan

Scripture Reference Colossians 2:8–10 [8] See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. [9] For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, [10] and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority. 2 Peter 1:3-4 [3] His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, [4] by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire. Books Referenced Malcome Muggeride, from his essay “Jesus: The Man Who Lives,” in Seeing Through the Eye: Malcolm Muggeridge on Faith, ed. Cecil Kuhne (San Francisco: Ignatius Press, 2005), 16. GK Chesterton, Orthodoxy. Films and TV Shows Referenced iRobot; The Terminator Series; Pixar's Wall*E; Battle Star Galactica (c. 2004); The Day After Tomorrow.
