Christian, Your Mission Is to Plunder the Nations! 03.10.2026 14min

What does it mean for Christians to “plunder the nations”?George Sayour traces this biblical theme from Israel’s exodus out of Egypt through Solomon, the prophets, and the nations coming to Christ.Drawing from Exodus, 1 Kings, Isaiah, Luke, Acts, Zechariah, and the early church fathers, George argues that God’s purposes were never confined to one nation or one piece of land.The mission expands outward as the gospel goes to the nations and the treasures, cultures, wisdom, and peoples of the world are brought under the lordship of Christ.This is not conquest by the sword, but gospel conquest: proclaiming peace, calling the nations to repentance, and gathering the treasures of the world into Christ’s kingdom.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

Is The Great Commission About Saving Individuals or Discipling Nations? 02.10.2026 13min

What does the Great Commission actually command—evangelizing individuals, discipling nations, or both?Alex Kocman examines Matthew 28, Charlie Kirk’s “make heaven crowded” movement, and the debate over what it means to “make disciples of all nations.” Drawing from Matthew 28, Daniel 7, Psalm 2, Revelation 5, and the Greek grammar of the Great Commission, Alex argues that Christ’s mission includes personal conversion, baptism, teaching, church membership, and the long-term discipling of peoples and nations under His Lordship.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

J.D. Greear recently published “Why I’m Not a Christian Nationalist,” arguing for a particular understanding of religious liberty, government, and the relationship between Christianity and the American nation. On this episode of The Magistrate, Josh Howard is joined by George Sayour to respond.Is civil government actually capable of moral neutrality?Should nations recognize the Lordship of Christ?And how should Christians distinguish religious liberty from the idea that government can operate without reference to an ultimate standard of justice?Josh and George interact with Greear’s arguments while drawing from historic Protestant political theology, Romans 13, the Ten Commandments, the Great Commission, and the Lordship of Christ.They also address Andrew Walker’s recent contribution to the discussion and consider how Christians can reject both political idolatry and political retreat.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

Stop Living Like the Gospel Loses | Habakkuk 2:14 30.09.2026 19min

What if Christians have learned to expect defeat when Scripture teaches us to expect the victory of Christ’s kingdom?“The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” — Habakkuk 2:14 In this episode of the Based Boomer Podcast, Mike DeVirgilio reflects on Iain Murray’s The Puritan Hope and the historic Christian confidence in the advance of the gospel. From the Puritans and the Great Awakenings to the rise of pietism, dispensational pessimism, and modern evangelical retreat, Mike examines how Christians came to expect less from the Great Commission—and why that needs to change.Looking at Habakkuk 2:14, the kingdom of God, and Christ’s command to disciple the nations, Mike argues that Christians should reject an escapist view of the faith and recover confidence that Christ is reigning now, His gospel is powerful, and His purposes in history will not fail.The Christian life is not about waiting for the gospel to lose. It is about living by faith rather than sight, building faithfully for generations to come, and trusting the promises of God.Christ is King. His kingdom is advancing. The gospel wins.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

The Seven Churches Were Standing at Ground Zero 29.09.2026 13min

If Revelation is largely concerned with first-century events, why was it addressed to seven churches in Asia Minor instead of Jerusalem?This episode explores why Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea were not random congregations, but strategically placed churches living at the center of Roman power, emperor worship, military roads, trade routes, political chaos, and rumors surrounding Nero’s death.By placing Revelation in its first-century context, we see why the book spoke directly to believers facing imperial pressure and why its message remains clear: empires rise and fall, but history belongs to Christ.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

Why Ingratitude Is More Dangerous Than You Think 28.09.2026 18min

Al Mohler vs Doug Wilson What Is A Nation Really? 25.09.2026 13min

What is a nation—and why does that question matter for Christians, missions, and the Great Commission?In this episode of The World View, Alex Kocman responds to the “Which Way America?” debate featuring Al Mohler, Doug Wilson, Joe Rigney, and Paul Miller. Before Christians debate what a nation should do, Alex argues, we first need to define what a nation actually is.Drawing from Genesis 10, Matthew 28, Acts 17, Revelation, Psalm 2, and the history of Christian missions, Alex examines the biblical concept of nations and the roles of land, lineage, language, law, liturgy, and culture.What does Scripture mean by “the nations”?

1) Daniel’s Prophecies What’s Clear, What’s Controversial, and Why It Matters 22.09.2026 4min

Why does the book of Daniel remain one of the most debated books of biblical prophecy?In this newly recorded introduction to his series on Daniel, Jay Rogers lays the foundation for understanding Daniel’s prophecies from a preterist perspective. He explains the background behind his studies, how his work in Revelation and Matthew 24 shaped his approach, and why getting the historical context right is essential for interpreting Daniel.Some of Daniel’s prophecies are remarkably clear. Others have produced centuries of disagreement. Throughout this series, Jay will examine both—working through the text, historical setting, competing interpretations, and the principles we should use when approaching biblical prophecy.Before tackling the difficult passages, we begin with the foundation: What can we know with confidence, where does the controversy begin, and how do Daniel’s visions fit together?Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

God’s Law Can’t Save You—So Why Should You Love It? 21.09.2026 23min

What role does God’s law play in the Christian life?In this episode of Take Heart, Cory Wing explains why Christians must reject both legalism and antinomianism.Drawing from Scripture and the Westminster Standards, Cory shows that God’s law cannot save sinners, justify believers, or produce righteousness.

Can you truly love Christ while remaining indifferent toward His church?In this final message through the Olivet Discourse, Pastor Brian Gunter examines Matthew 25 and Jesus’ separation of the sheep and the goats. Christ identifies Himself with His people so closely that how they are treated is counted as treatment of Christ Himself.What does this passage reveal about genuine faith? What separates the sheep from the goats? And what does Jesus’ warning mean for Christians who claim to love Him while neglecting His church?Drawing from Matthew 24–25, Acts 9, and the broader testimony of Scripture, Brian challenges church apathy, nominal Christianity, and division while calling believers to love, serve, and faithfully care for the body of Christ.Matthew 25 brings the Olivet Discourse to its climactic picture of judgment and separation.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

The Beast That Died and Came Back: Rome, Nero, and Revelation’s Deadly Wound 16.09.2026 8min

What if Revelation’s beast with the fatal wound was not a prediction of a future global apocalypse, but a powerful image rooted in the chaos of first-century Rome?

By comparing Revelation’s imagery with the near-collapse and dramatic recovery of the Roman Empire, it presents a historically grounded case that the beast’s “deadly wound” and healing were realities the original audience would have immediately understood.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

God Has Not Abandoned You in the Fire 14.09.2026 26min

Why does God allow Christians to suffer? How should believers respond when suffering comes through sickness, loss, persecution, broken relationships, or the ordinary pain of life in a fallen world?

Christianity Was Never Supposed to Be This Weak 14.09.2026 18min

Is Christianity only about personal salvation—or is the gospel meant to transform the world?In this episode of The Based Boomer Podcast, Mike D’Virgilio challenges the idea that Christianity should remain a private faith concerned only with individual salvation and personal holiness.Drawing from Scripture, Mike argues that Christ’s reign has implications for every area of life—and that Christians should expect the gospel to bear fruit in families, churches, cultures, and nations.From Colossians 2 and Psalm 110 to 1 Corinthians 15 and the Great Commission, Mike lays out a biblical vision of Christ’s advancing kingdom and explains why Christians have every reason to labor with confidence rather than retreat in defeat.The gospel was never meant to stay private. Christ is King, the Great Commission is still our mission, and Christians should live with great expectations for what God will accomplish in the world.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<

The Servant Jesus Called Wicked and Lazy 11.09.2026 16min

Will people be judged for failing to use what God has entrusted to them? In Matthew 25, Jesus tells the parable of the talents—a sobering picture of servants awaiting the return of their master.Pastor Brian Gunter continues his series through the Olivet Discourse, examining what this parable teaches about faithfulness, stewardship, and our responsibility while we await Christ’s return. God has entrusted His people with gifts, opportunities, resources, and time—and He expects His servants to put them to work for His kingdom.What does it mean to bury your talent? Why was the unfaithful servant condemned? And what does this warning mean for Christians today?The Christian life is not one of passive waiting. Christ calls His people to faithful, fruitful service until He comes.Watch all of our videos and subscribe to our channel for the latest content >Here<For blog entries, articles, and much more, visit our website >Here<
