Episode Description

John the Baptist had one job.

John came to prepare people to meet Jesus. Specifically, he would ‘make straight the way of the Lord,’ as the prophet Isaiah had foretold. But the people wouldn’t listen. John would be a voice crying in the wilderness. He would be misunderstood, and eventually killed. And the same would happen to the Messiah.

Questions That We’ll Answer:

A) Why was John ‘baptizing’ people? What kind of baptism was this?

B) Why did John say ‘behold the Lamb’ when he saw Jesus approach?

C) What’s the difference between ‘appeasement’ and ‘atonement?’

We believe in a literal reading of scripture (unless the scripture itself indicates differently), the inerrancy of the Bible, and that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone.For some background information on our ministry, Prodigal was started by Wes in 2020. For him, Prodigal was his first attempt at being faithful to God's call for him to evangelize and reach the lost. We like the quote by Charles Spurgeon, "If sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our dead bodies. And if they perish, let them perish with our arms wrapped about their knees, imploring them to stay. If Hell must be filled, let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go unwarned and unprayed for". In 2021 Wes finished his master in Theological Studies. In 2022 we got married. In 2023 Wes finished up his doctorate in C Rylen's podcast Rylen Ballard Christian Apologetics Young Minds Big Questions Young Minds Big Questions A few guys talking about theology and apologetics.
