Worship the True God (Jeremiah 10.1-16) [49:21]
by Sean Finnegan rated at 1.6 (6 votes so far)
Yahweh is the living, powerful, wise, genius creator at whose wrath the nations tremble. He is the one who controls the waters, clouds, lightning, rain, wind. He is great, powerful, and to be feared. He is the inheritance of God’s people. Worship God, he is worthy. Truth matters! Our current cultural climate devalues truth saying that being nice is all that matters...I’m sure there were many nice idol worshipers, but God was still offended at such behavior as we can see over and over in the Scriptures. Truth matters. Love matters. Let’s do both, and not just fall into the mold set for us by our culture.

What is the Word in John 1.1? [46:27]
by Vince Finnegan rated at 2.0 (8 votes so far)
The first verse of the Gospel of John is almost always used as a starting point to prove the Trinity. However, is there another way to read John 1.1: a way that makes sense of the overall context of Jewish Monotheism? Is "the word" the pre-incarnate Son of God or is there a more Hebrew way to approach the prologue of John?
The Shema: The Creed of Jesus [47:10]
by Sean Finnegan rated at 3.2 (13 votes so far)
The central creed of the Old Testament is that Yahweh our God is one. Jesus held this as his creed and so should we today. The Trinity is an affront to biblical monotheism and seeks to change the 'one' into 'three.' This is not an option if we want to be like Jesus who said that the Father is the only true God

A Short Explanation to John 1.1, 14 [1 page]
by Sean Finnegan rated at 1.0 (5 votes so far)
What is the word in John 1.1? This question is best answered by looking at the 42 books of the Bible which preceded the Gospel of John rather than reading later extra-biblical logos Christology into the Bible.
A Short Explanation to Titus 2.13 [1 page]
by Sean Finnegan rated at 1.0 (5 votes so far)
This verse could be translated two different ways. The way the NASB translates it implies that Christ Jesus is "our great God and Savior." Though this translation is very popular some scholars have criticized it and prefer the rendering found in the NAB and the KJV "...the glory of the great God and of our Savior Jesus Christ."
