In John 14, Jesus promises His disciples the presence of the "comforter". Muslims argue that the comforter is correctly understood to be Muhammad. Christians believe that the comforter is the Holy Spirit. What does the Bible teach? Join us as we look into the work of the Holy Spirit in the Gospel of John and discover the real identity of the comforter.

Firm Foundations

Is Muhammad the Comforter?

What does the transfiguration of Christ have to do with our lives this week? It's a call to die that we may live.

The Glory of God through Death

When God's saving grace touches our lives He both protects us and His Spirit works to persevere us in repentance and trust in Christ until the day of judgement (John 6). This talk is based off of Wayne Grudem's Systematic Theology, and the input he had in my life at Phoenix Seminary. I hope you enjoy and are encouraged to draw closer to Christ this week!

Perseverance of the Saints

The Surpassing Worth of Knowing Christ!

Listen to today's sermon on replacing the lies of Satan with the Truth of God's Word. Listen as Hunter expounds what went wrong in the Garden of Eden (Gen. 3) and shares with us how we can guard ourselves against the lies of Satan (Luke 4). How do the lies we believe impact our thoughts, behaviours and emotions? When we see sinful patterns in our lives how do we repent of them and walk in a way that is pleasing to Christ? Listen today as Hunter shares a sermon from this year's Biblical Worldview Summit (2019) on how we can be "transformed by the renewing of our minds" (Rom. 12:2) 

Replacing Lies with the Truth

Daniel de Villiers joins me in the studio to unpack how we rightly approach and interpret the Word of God by examining Psalm 8. Join us as we consider the original context of this Psalm and how it is applied to Christ in the book of Hebrews “When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers… what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?” Psalm 8:3-4

Unfolding the Scriptures

Tobie Fourie joins Hunter today, as they walk through John 3:1-21 and discuss the work of the Holy Spirit in Salvation. What can we learn from this famous story of Nicodemus coming to talk to Jesus at night? Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God" (John 3:3).

You Must Be Born Again!

A sermon Hunter preached at First Baptist Church of Tempe from Ephesians 1:15-16 on a life of Thankfulness. 

A Life of Thankfulness

Today Hunter and John talk about their preaching workshops. Then, they get into the Text of Mark 9 and discuss the importance of Christ's transfiguration. 

Transfiguration

Muslims often misunderstand what is meant by the term "Son of God" when Christians apply it to Christ. Along with clearing up some misunderstandings about the nature of Christ and the doctrine of the Trinity, we also spend some time looking at the sign of Jonah.

Muslims often claim that the Bible has been corrupted. In this episode, we defend the reliability of the Bible as it has been handed down to us over the centuries. We also discuss the importance of distinguishing the clear differences between the doctrines of Christianity which were taught during the lifetime of Muhammad and the doctrines of Islam.

Is the Bible Reliable?

In this episode, we look at Song of Solomon 5:16; Isaiah 29:12; Luke 7:28; 3:16 to investigate the Islamic claims that Muhammad is predicted in the Bible. We interact with arguments presented by Shabir Ally, Zakir Naik, and Abdur-Raheem Green. We also talk about the importance of the ministry of John the Baptist. Please share this with your Muslim friends. Give us a shout-out if you have any questions!

More About Muhammad

Many false religions attack the deity of Christ based on a false understanding of John 1. In this episode, John and Hunter go through John 1 and demonstrate the deity of Jesus from this profound passage of Scripture. 

Untying John 1:1

Today, Hunter and John discuss Deuteronomy 18. This prophecy about the prophet like Moses is hotly debated by Muslims and Christians. We discuss our personal encounters with Muslims over this passage and exegete the Text.

Moses, Muhammad, and Jesus
