No Christian podcast worth its salt can avoid answering the all-important question: just who were those Nephilim, anyway?Chelsea and I present the first of three popular theories about the Nephilim: that they are the offspring of fallen angels and humans.Theories about the Nephilim seem to depend on who were “the sons of God” and “the daughters of men” in Genesis chapter 6.Join us as we explore arguments for this theory and arguments against it.Sources Consulted:The Book of EnochDr. Michael S.

In this episode of Truthspresso Express I look at two passages among others considered “difficult-to-understand” from an article addressed to Christian writers:Where did Cain get his wife? (Genesis 4:16-17)Why did Matthew say that Jeremiah spoke a prophecy that we find written in Zechariah?Sources Consulted:Dr. Henderson Ward, “The Most Difficult Verse in the Bible,” FaithWriters, March 19, 2013.We value your feedback!Have questions for Truthspresso?Contact us!

Elizabeth Marbach was the communications director for Ohio Right To Life.But on that fateful day of August 15, 2023, she dared to do the unthinkable! She tweeted a message on X that said that faith in Jesus Christ alone was the only hope anyone could have.Ohio Republican Representative Max Miller replied that it was the most bigoted post he had ever seen and demanded that she delete it.After a firestorm of controversy, and Marbach refusing to retract her basic Christian claim, Miller apologized.Yet, two days later, Marbach still found herself dismissed from Ohio Right To Life. When asked if she regretted her initial tweet, Marbach was only grateful that millions have read the truth of the gospel.Sources Consulted:Elizabeth Marbach’s original

In this episode of Truthspresso Express I respond to an article I read Wednesday night about how someone use ChatGPT to write some fake Bible verses.A “trans” person asked ChatGPT to conjure some virtual Bible verses that show Jesus “affirming” this lifestyle.Some comments claimed that these verses sounded more “Christian” than most Christians.I compare these AI-generated verses to statements Jesus made in the gospels to show that the ChatGPT Jesus doesn’t imitate the real Jesus. In fact, the fake verses are more similar to what one might read from the gnostic gospels from the Nag Hammadi library.Sources Consulted:Christopher Wiggins, “ChatGPT Writes Trans-Affirming Bible Verse,” Advocate, Wednesday, August 16, 2023.We value your feedback!Have questions for Truthspresso?Contact us!

In this episode of Truthspresso Express I examine a 2017 contributing article from the Huffington Post. David Wygant, a “dating and relationship coach” argues that we need to “redefine” marriage to fit modern society. How original!Wygant treats a lifetime commitment as an “illusion” and a childhood fairy tale.Since we live longer on average than our ancestors from the Middle Ages, we “grow” and “change” a lot throughout our adulthood. There should be room for five or six “loving relationships” if we live long enough.And the stigma of divorce needs to go, of course.Not recognizing the truth of God’s design, it shouldn’t shock us when the world can’t figure out why marriage even exists as a “tradition.”Sources Consulted:David Wygant, “Is Marriage

Chelsea and I look at events surrounding, during, and after the Hunter Biden plea deal hearing in the U.S. District Federal case United States v. Biden.Wednesday, July 26, Hunter Biden was scheduled to plead guilty to two misdemeanor charges of tax evasion and a federal charge of illegal firearm possession. Critics called this a “sweetheart” plea deal. The hearing didn’t go the way most of the world expected.This episode is part 2 of covering this plea deal and the hearing. In this episode we look at the shockingly childish shenanigans Hunter Biden’s legal team tried to pull the day before the plea deal hearing. We then walk through the plea hearing itself and how the plea deal fell apart. Because
