In this conversation, we cover: ☝️ WHY it isn’t in the Bible ✌️ WHAT this Gospel is actually about 🤟 HOW important this text was—and still is—for Christians around the world   Should the Gospel of Thomas be in the Bible?

Why Jordan Peterson’s view of God isn’t what most Christians think 2.  What it means to deconstruct 3. Religious Archetypes and Ideologies 4.

Did Archaeologists just uncover the childhood HOME of Peter and Andrew?  SHOW NOTES In this second episode exploring the mystery of Biblical Bethsaida, I sit down with Dr. Steven Notley and Dr. Mordechai Aviam—the lead excavators of El-Araj, a promising candidate for the lost fishing village that was home to Peter, Andrew, and Philip! Church tradition claims a Byzantine church was built over the apostles' family home. Now, both the church and first-century house remains have been found in the same location. Could this be the long-lost Bethsaida?   LEARN MORE ABOUT THE EXCAVATION Website: https://www.bethsaida-julias.com/   SOCIAL LINKS Instagram: @Truth_Tradition24   #BiblicalArchaeology #ElAraj #Bethsaida #SaintPeter #Gospels #FirstCenturyChristianity #TruthAndTradition #PeterAndAndrew #BibleHistory #Apostles #ArchaeologyInterview #HistoricalJesus

SHOW NOTES In this fascinating interview, I sit down with Dr. Rami Arav, the lead archaeologist at Et-Tell, to discuss one of the most debated sites in Bible Archaeology: BETHSAIDA. Bethsaida is famous as the hometown of up to five of the twelve apostles — including Peter, Andrew, and Philip. Yet, controversy surrounds its location. Is Bethsaida in Galilee, as the Gospel of John suggests? Or in the Gaulanitis, where Archaeology sites Et-Tell and El-Araj are located? DR.

👇 Comment Bellow! Do you think El-Araj is the real Bethsaida??? 💬   EPISODE NOTES: @CapturingChristianity released a video claiming that a newly uncovered Greek inscription at El-Araj confirms the biblical village of Bethsaida. But is that what the evidence actually says? 🤔 📣 Stay tuned for my exclusive follow-up interview with Dr. Rami Arav, the lead archaeologist at El-Araj. We’ll go deeper into the findings, the site’s history, and why the Bethsaida question is far from settled.   🔗 LINKS: Capturing Christianity’s video:    • BREAKING: The Most Important Find ‘Si...   Original Academic Publication: https://www.academia.edu/118048617/Th...

👉 What do you think? Is there other propaganda in the BIBLE? Drop your thoughts in the comments!!   Listen to Part 1!! 👉 https://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-4tse2-184204b   SHOW NOTES In this episode, I sit down with Dead Sea Scrolls scholar Dr. Kipp Davis to uncover the political propaganda woven into biblical narratives. We explore striking parallels between Genesis 38 and the Succession Narrative in 2 Samuel & 1 Kings, suggesting that these stories may have been shaped to serve political agendas.   🚨 Mic Drop Moment: Dr. Davis presents a groundbreaking interpretation— "what if Solomon wasn’t actually David’s son, but Uriah’s?" Could this be an act of poetic justice for Bathsheba, the woman David wronged?   📢 Don’t forget to LIKE, COMMENT, & SUBSCRIBE for more deep dives into biblical history and hidden narratives.

In this episode, we explore Genesis 38 – the intriguing story of Judah and Tamar. While many view this as a simple bible story, we explore the possibility that it was political propaganda used to legitimize King Solomon's rule. Despite having older brothers, Solomon became king, and this narrative may have been crafted to support his legitimacy. Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll dive even deeper with Dead Sea Scrolls Scholar,  @DrKippDavis , to unpack more insights! 👉 Like, comment, and subscribe for more episodes exploring Religion, Philosophy, and Science!! #BibleStory #JudahAndTamar #KingSolomon #Genesis38 #PoliticalPropaganda #BibleHistory #BiblicalAnalysis #SolomonsKingship #BiblePodcast #HistoricalNarratives #podcasts
