Incarnation and Humility

/ Daniel Mynyk/ No Comments

The theology of Christmas is not over at Truthspresso! We continue to look at Jesus Christ as He is described in the Bible.

We look at Philippians 2:3-7 to see how the mind of Christ to be humble helps us understand the incarnation. We take a deep dive into verses 6 and 7 and parse words and phrases with a fine-toothed comb.

Letting humility guide us in understanding some Greek, we conclude that this beautiful passage of Scripture cannot be stronger in teaching that Jesus is the one person of the Son of God with two natures–divine and human.

My brother John joins me for the first time as a guest on Truthspresso. Two Mormon missionaries and their bishop visited my house on Friday. John was there to join me. We all had a delightful conversation. After the Mormons pitched their church and explained that they have continuing prophets, John and I asked some basic probing questions about the atonement and who they believe Jesus to be.

Responding to the 2024 Elections

The 2024 elections exceeded many expectations. Donald J. Trump is once again slated for the White House. He won in an electoral landslide and won the popular vote. He gained in almost every demographic. We look at some fiscal data and figure out why Gen Z and younger Millennials shifted the most toward Trump from 2020. Some people are really unhappy and feel their very livelihood and the world is in danger. After playing some clips of TikTok people melting down, I present a challenge to Christians. If you’re happy or feel relief, avoid the trap of kicking people while they’re down. Be a listening ear and ask questions gently. Speak truth in love. Ease the angst and look for
