EP 111 | Should Christians Baptize Babies? w/ Dr. Peter Goeman | Redeeming Truth In this episode of the Redeeming Truth Podcast, Dr. Peter Goeman joins Pastor Jon Benzinger to discuss the historical, theological, and biblical aspects of baptism. In this thought-provoking discussion, they explore the two main views on baptism: Infant baptism and believer's baptism. Should Christians baptize infants? Does baptism really matter? Where did infant baptism come from? If you are interested in learning more about baptism, this is a must-listen episode. Check out Dr. Goeman’s book, The Baptism Debate: https://www.amazon.com/Baptism-Debate-Understanding-Evaluating-Reformed/dp/1960255045 Should the church baptize infants? This question has been an issue of debate for over 1500 years. The Baptism Debate provides a fresh look at the Reformed perspective on infant baptism. After thoroughly explaining and examining the Reformed position on infant baptism, this book provides a genuine and thoughtful analysis of Reformed covenant theology and its implications for infant baptism. Grounding the conclusions in a robust analysis of the biblical texts, The Baptism Debate helps the reader understand baptism and answer the question of whether the church should baptize infants.

Anticipating the Rapture | Jon Benzinger | End Times Summer Series The End Times: What the Bible Says About the Rapture In this video, we will discuss the study of end times, particularly the book of Revelation. Pastor Jon Benzinger emphasizes the importance of interpreting biblical prophecy literally and argues for a futuristic premillennialist view, highlighting the reasons for confusion and differing interpretations. This sermon presents ten reasons supporting belief in a pre-tribulation rapture, asserting that the church will be taken to heaven before the seven-year tribulation. Watch this video for the distinctions between the rapture and Jesus' second coming, the exemption of the church from God's wrath, and the imminence of Jesus' return. We need to be prepared for the rapture by embracing faith in Jesus and repenting from sin.

Seeing the Second Coming (Revelation 19:11-21) | Jeremiah Dennis | End Times Summer Series In view of the disturbing state of our times, you may be wondering—is there any hope? Will the sun of righteousness ever rise again? Into the foreboding silence, the Scriptures speak with a resolute voice: “Yes.” In a world overshadowed by darkness, the hope of Jesus' second coming emerges as a beacon of light. Revelation 19:11-21 vividly portrays this climactic event, portraying Jesus as a victorious warrior on a white horse. With unwavering righteousness, he executes God's wrath and establishes his reign, accompanied by the heavenly armies. Jesus, the mighty king, annihilates his enemies with the power of his word and rules with absolute authority. While sinners face his wrath, believers find solace in the promise of exaltation, Satan's defeat, and eternal life in heaven. This momentous occasion urges all to repent and embrace Christ's terms of peace before his wrath is unleashed.

EP 109 | The Truth About the NAR w/ Holly Pivec and Doug Geivett | Redeeming Truth In this detailed expose, we delve into the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). This global movement has become infamous for its authoritative claims, divine revelations, and emphasis on signs and wonders. The NAR has been under scrutiny for its teachings and practices, which often diverge from traditional beliefs and lack biblical substantiation. This video takes a critical look at the Wake Up Olive incident, a distressing event that put the questionable aspects of the NAR in the spotlight. We scrutinize the NAR's use of the Passion Bible, which is under fire for introducing NAR teachings into the text, casting a shadow on the movement's credibility. As the evangelical community begins to challenge the NAR's authority and identify departures from biblical truth, we provide an in-depth look into these critical viewpoints. Despite the NAR's tendency to dismiss or misinterpret these critiques, there is a growing counter-movement opposing the NAR's teachings. We also explore the book "Counterfeit Kingdom," by Holly Pivec and Doug Geivett, which offers guidance on safeguarding oneself from misleading theology, and discuss the advised avoidance of NAR music within churches due to its incorporation of NAR teachings.

EP 105 | The Truth of the Resurrection | Redeeming Truth Pastors Jon Benzinger, Dale Thackrah, Todd Burgett, and Kyle Swanson discuss the truth of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. "And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified about God that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised. For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied. But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive." - 1 Corinthians 15:14-22 Click here to Subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCenfIkvDIJa4Qb4WgsH8hkw?sub_confirmation=1 Follow us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/redeemerbibleaz/ For more information about Redeemer Bible Church in Gilbert, Arizona, or to help support this ministry, please visit us at https://www.redeemeraz.org Join our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/redeemeraz Follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/redeemeraz Never miss a sermon, find our Redeeming Truth Podcast in your favorite player, and subscribe!

Are You Placing Evangelism Over Truth? (Eric Metaxas) | Redeeming Truth Clip Full Episode: https://youtu.be/Ytv2S0g88JU Eric Metaxas and Jon Benzinger discuss the idol of evangelism. Do pastors have an obligation to speak truth, even when it might be controversial? Is it wrong to make an 'idol of evangelism?' In this short video, we explore this powerful topic and discuss the urgent need for the American Church to speak up. We talk about how German pastors were held accountable by God for being silent in the face of evil and emphasize that we should not make an idol of issues but must be willing to speak up with boldness.
