What Happens When We Die? Interview with Randy Alcorn

We are excited to welcome esteemed author and theologian Randy Alcorn to discuss what happens when we die. Randy Alcorn has extensively explored the afterlife in his writings, offering thoughtful and biblically grounded perspectives. He will share his views on the immediate afterlife, addressing what the Bible says about the experiences of believers and non-believers after death. We'll explore concepts like the intermediate state, heaven, and hell, and what Scripture reveals about our eternal destinies.

Join us in the Live Chat on Monday, August 5 at 4:00 p.m. CDT/UTC-5.

What was the Old Testament School of the Prophets?

Modern-day cessationists argue that spiritual gifts can't be trained. And yet, in the Old Testament, we find the company (or school) of the prophets. What was this institution, and what role did it play in ancient Israel? Join us as we explore the historical and biblical context of the School of the Prophets and uncover its significance.

We'll examine key passages from the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles, where these prophetic communities are mentioned. Who were the prophets associated with these schools, and what was their mission? How did they contribute to the spiritual and social life of Israel?

We'll also discuss the teachings and practices that were likely emphasized in the School of the Prophets. What kind of training did the prophets undergo, and what was the nature of their prophetic ministry? We'll consider the relationship between these schools and notable prophets like Samuel, Elijah, and Elisha.

Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the School of the Prophets and its role in shaping the prophetic tradition in Israel. Discover how these ancient institutions can offer insights into the prophetic ministry today.

Don’t miss this discussion on the origins, purpose, and impact of the School of the Prophets.

ASK YOUR QUESTIONS:

Have a theology question? Drop it here. While we can't guarantee we'll tackle every question, we'll dive into one or two each week. So, fire away and let's explore together!

Question: I’m looking for a church that is balanced in both the Word & Spirit - not falling into either cessationism or being hyper-charismatic. Where can I find one?

Answer: The Remnant hosts serve on the Board of Directors for the Convergence Church Network, which serves as a resource to support churches striving for this balance. A list of churches in this network is available. While we do not personally know each of these churches, we can confirm that they have signed the CCN Statement of Faith.

The list is continually growing. So, if you don’t see a church in your area, be sure to check back. Also, if you are a pastor wanting to join the Convergence Church Network, you can find details here.

Is There Biblical Masculinity? Interview with Jon Tyson

We sit down with Jon Tyson to discuss his book Fighting Shadows, which addresses the growing confusion and hostility surrounding masculinity in today's world and offers a powerful call for men to embrace Jesus's vision for their lives.

In our interview with Jon, we'll explore:

• How many men feel paralyzed and unsure of their place

• Strategies for men to combat escapism, passivity, and overcompensation

• Insights into overcoming loneliness, apathy, distraction, lust, and shame

• How men can see their masculinity as a gift from God rather than a curse, and how to live out their strengths and ambitions in alignment with Jesus's vision.

Jon Tyson will share his experiences from years of men's ministry, providing practical advice and spiritual encouragement for men who are seeking clarity and courage in an age of quiet desperation. Don't miss this enlightening conversation on how to step out of the shadows and into the light of your God-given potential.

Tune in for an inspiring discussion on reclaiming the joy and responsibility of biblical manhood.

Strategic Spiritual Warfare, Is It Biblical: A Look At Peter Wagner's Approach To Spiritual Warfare.

Are you ready to dive into the depths of spiritual warfare? Join us as we critically examine C. Peter Wagner's controversial teaching on "Strategic Spiritual Warfare." Wagner claims that God has provided the church with a new "Rhema module" essential for these last days. But is it truly biblical? Wagner, a prominent figure in the New Apostolic Reformation, has been a leading advocate for this approach to spiritual warfare. But the big question remains: Is this practice truly biblical?

In this episode, we will explore:

The Foundations of Strategic Spiritual Warfare: What does C. Peter Wagner propose, and how has his approach shaped contemporary views on spiritual warfare?

Key Concepts and Practices: We'll break down the main elements of Wagner's strategy, including territorial spirits, prayer walking, and the use of prophetic acts.

Biblical Analysis: How do these practices align with Scripture? We'll delve into biblical texts and contexts to discern whether strategic spiritual warfare holds up under theological scrutiny.

Historical and Theological Perspectives: Comparing Wagner's teachings with traditional Christian doctrines and the historical understanding of spiritual warfare.

Practical Implications: What are the potential benefits and dangers of adopting Wagner's approach? How should Christians engage in spiritual warfare in a way that is grounded in biblical truth?

We'll also address questions such as:

• Does the Bible support the idea of engaging with territorial spirits

• How did Jesus and the apostles approach spiritual warfare?

• What role should prayer and intercession play in our battle against spiritual forces of darkness?

• Is prayer walking, spiritual mapping, and "binding the strong man" the new "Rhema module" of spiritual warfare?

Tune in as we offer a balanced and thorough review of strategic spiritual warfare, helping you navigate this complex and often controversial topic.
