How Do You Accept Jesus? Calvinism vs Wesleyanism & Heresy Exposed

In this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, Nate and the crew tackle one of the most-searched questions that Christians apparently keep forgetting to answer: how do you actually accept Jesus and receive Him as Lord and Savior? Turns out the gap between "churchy lingua" and plain English is wider than we thought — so we fix that. You're welcome, internet. From there, the panel dives deep into the Ordo Salutis — the order of salvation — comparing the Wesleyan and Calvinist views on total depravity, total inability, regeneration, and whether God drags you to salvation in chains or extends a general grace that you respond to. Spoiler: everyone agrees on the destination. The how-to guide is where it gets spicy. Next up, Nate addresses a viral Catholic apologetics claim involving Venerable Marthe Robin — a French mystic who allegedly lived 53 years sustained only by the Eucharist. Nate doesn't deny the miracle. He denies the attribution. If God does a miracle, it's God's miracle — not the wafer's. Then Steph brings receipts on a video from realgoodnews.org — a heretical claim that Jesus's baptism disproves blood atonement, that John the Baptist was practicing Essene Judaism, and that Jesus drove out the money changers because He opposed animal sacrifice — not because they turned the temple into a den of robbers. Nate goes through all four Gospel accounts. Spoiler again: every single one says "den of robbers." Every. Single. One. Finally, the crew responds to a former pastor turned atheist who claims: "If you need a Bible to be a good person, you're not good — you're just controlled." Nate's counter? You're made in the image of God, which is exactly why you already know right from wrong — whether you admit it or not. Also featuring: a man who got saved in prison and genuinely needs the Bible to not commit battle axe-related crimes. Compelling testimony.
