The Cross References Podcast with Luke Taylor: Episode 99 There’s something that the Bible and the average Jew-hater can agree upon: there is something different about Israel. there’s lots of racism going on in the world today, but there’s something different about anti-semitism. There is a racial hatred for the Jewish people that goes far outside the scope of typical racism. That’s because there’s a spirit behind anti-semitism that comes right from the devil himself. So today, I want to explain why there’s a spirit of anti-semitisim permeating the world. Also, I will disprove replacement theology with just one verse. Because that’s actually all it takes. I’ll explain why Israel is called the apple of God’s eye in the Bible. And I’ll answer the question: Why does Satan hate Israel so much?

The Cross References Podcast with Luke Taylor: Episode 97 The Old Testament does not get great ratings. Most sermons, most bible study, most bible reading is centered around the New Testament. And that’s understandable. Testament means covenant. And we are, after all, in the New Covenant. But the OT still has something to say, and it says them on a level that you’ve probably never realized before. So if you’re somewhat familiar with the story of Israel in the Old Testament, you might know the stories of getting out of Egypt and the Wilderness Wanderings and taking the Promised Land. But did you know that Israel’s experiences during that time have a direct parallel to your Christian life? It’ll make you reflect on where you’ve been, where you are, and where you’re going. And if you feel defeated, I’ll give you an answer for how to live victoriously. Learn all about it today on the Cross References podcast. 0:00 - Introduction to Typology 13:30 - Wilderness Typology 37:15 - Mailbag: CBDC still a few years away? 40:30 - Closing Thoughts If you want to get in touch with me, send an email to crossreferencespodcast@gmail.com Hosted by Luke Taylor

The Cross References Podcast with Luke Taylor: Episode 96 Ezekiel as a book has been full of sign-acts- ways that Ezekiel acts things out in his life to demonstrate what God wants to communicate to the people of Israel. And in this chapter, he’s going to get his toughest one yet. Everybody wants to be a prophet. They think giving oracles and performing sign-acts sounds so cool and exciting. They don’t realize what being a prophet costs. Hosea had a unique assignment; he had to marry an unfaithful woman and then deal with a cheating wife. Daniel was thrown into a pit of lions. Jeremiah was thrown into a pit of waste-deep mud and left there for days. Isaiah was sawed in half. Being a prophet carried a heavy cost. And today, we’ll find out what it would cost Ezekiel on the Cross References podcast. 0:00 - Intro 4:50 - v15-18, Ezekiel’s Wife Dies 7:10 - v19-24, Ezekiel’s Life is a Sign 14:15 - v25-27, Ezekiel Was Dumb 17:45 - Mailbag: Does the Rapture Have to Wait Until the “First Resurrection” of Revelation 20 27:20 - Closing Thoughts: God is in Charge If you want to get in touch with me, send an email to crossreferencespodcast@gmail.com Hosted by Luke Taylor

The Cross References Podcast with Luke Taylor: Episode 95 I think we’ve all been there: those times that we pushed a little too far, got in over our head, tried to do it our own way, and it all blew up in our face. And that’s certainly what happened to the city of Jerusalem in Ezekiel chapter 24. They just thought they were invincible, that nothing they did would have longstanding consequences- because after all, they were God’s city, right? But, they blew it. And it was going to be a long, hard road to setting things right. So what do we do when we’ve blown it?

The Cross References Podcast with Luke Taylor: Episode 94 There’s a lot of things that I hear Bible prophecy teachers say that actually aren’t predicted anywhere in the Bible. There are things that just get repeated and repeated and repeated for years, but don’t actually have a scriptural basis. There’s a lot of assumptions that get thrown into the mix when we talk about the timeline of the rapture. Now, I believe in the rapture, but I don’t want to make assumptions. We need to re-analyze the basis for everything we believe- and always be ready to prove it when asked. So, what common mistakes do people make when studying Bible prophecy?

The Cross References Podcast with Luke Taylor: Episode 80 What are you going to do if a transgender person walks into your church?
