Jesus was asked twice about the suffering of others. Did he attribute that to karma? To God's punishment? To people's sin? Actually, Jesus responded in a way that affirmed the theology in Job: there is non-order (if even disorder) present in God's creation. Let's unpack what that means. I also explore the matrix of Progressive political policies. Come laugh and think with me!
Why do we suffer? Is God punishing us? Did we deserve it? Does the book of Job teach us the law of karma? In this show I look at Job in its historic context to see what it is teaching us about suffering, life, and God himself. Why does God teach Job about the monsters Behemoth and Leviathan? I also discuss why my show is subversive in Christ. Come laugh and think with me!
(Image: Léon Bonnat, “Job” 1880) Why do we suffer? Did we bring it on ourselves or is God punishing us? Job's story shines an intense light on those questions. Here's another, why do we serve God? For the bennies or because He is God? And then, how should we think about Satan in light of his appearance in the book of Job? I also share personally about why I serve God. Come think with me!
What does Hinduism teach that is the fundamental problem confronting the human race? What is the solution to that problem? How do the answers to those questions square with a Christian worldview? What's wrong with Yoga? How might one ask a Hindu good and respectful questions?
What was Jesus teaching us when he told the story about Lazarus and the rich man? Why did he say there is a chasm in the middle of Hades? Was he teaching that all poor folks go to heaven while all rich people go to hell? Did Jesus hate money? Does the Bible teach a hatred of wealth? Just what is the point of this parable? What does it teach about the afterlife?
