EP 134 | How Should Pastors Think About Pastoring? | Redeeming Truth
EP 134 | How Should Pastors Think About Pastoring? | Redeeming Truth What's the danger lurking in every pastor's heart? 🤔 In this video, Pastors Jon Benzinger, Dale Thackrah, and Todd Burgett explore Jesus' startling call to a radically different model of greatness in Mark 10. "Greatness by our culture is defined by self-promotion...and here Jesus says, 'No actually...get your cues from Me.'" 😲 But how can pastors steer clear of abusing authority and pursue the servant heart Jesus demonstrates? Diving into Ezekiel 34, these pastors expose failures common among shepherds God assigns to care for His flock. Jesus shows the way: "Whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant." Listen as these pastors wrestle with putting Jesus' challenging words into practice as they shepherd God's people.

EP 133 | Muhammad: Fact or Fiction? with Al Fadi | Redeeming Truth
EP 133 | Muhammad: Fact or Fiction? with Al Fadi | Redeeming Truth In this fascinating and controversial episode of Redeeming Truth, host Jon Benzinger joins former Muslim Al Fadi to unpack the complex figure of Muhammad in Islam. They dive deep into Islamic sources about Muhammad's life, including obscure Hadith and Sira, analyzing his marriage to Aisha, his commands to kill opponents, and more. Al Fadi candidly discusses aspects of Muhammad that Muslims don't like to talk about. They also debate whether Muhammad truly existed, examining arguments from critical scholars like Dr. Jay Smith and Robert Spencer. According to Al Fadi, Muhammad likely did exist but his story was greatly amplified over time for political reasons. This is an eye-opening discussion about the deep connections between early Islamic history centered around Muhammad and trends we see today like jihadism and anti-semitism.

EP 111 | Should Christians Baptize Babies? w/ Dr. Peter Goeman | Redeeming Truth
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.

In this episode of the Redeeming Truth Podcast, we talk to Al Fadi about his journey from Islam to Christianity. Al Fadi was born and raised in Saudi Arabia. He was a devout Muslim and even considered joining a jihadist group. However, after a series of events, Al Fadi began to question his faith. He eventually came to know the love of Christ and that he could not reject God's Son. Al Fadi's story is a powerful testimony of God's grace and love. It is also a reminder that no one is beyond the reach of God's saving power.

"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!

EP 103 | Salvation: A Gift of God’s Grace (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth
EP 103 | Salvation: A Gift of God’s Grace (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth Pastors Jon Benzinger (Lead Pastor) and Kyle Swanson (Executive Pastor) discuss our doctrinal statement. Salvation. We teach that salvation is completely a gift of God’s grace given to all whom He chose to save before the creation of the world. Salvation includes all that God does in saving humans from the penalty, power, and presence of sin and in restoring them to a right relationship with Him. Salvation can never be gained by human good works but is a free gift given only to those who by regenerating grace repent of their sins and put their trust in Jesus Christ alone as Savior and Lord, His finished work on the Cross and His Resurrection. All who do so are united to Jesus forever, and therefore, are forgiven and saved from their sins, declared right with and reconciled to God, freed from slavery to sin, and adopted into God’s family so as to do His will and bring Him glory both now and forever. [Mark 1:15; John 3:16, 3:36, 6:44, 17:3, 20:31; Acts 3:19, 5:31, 10:43, 11:18-21, 13:48, 20:21, 26:20; Rom 1:16-17, 3:20-5:21, 9:15-16, 10:9-17; 1 Cor 1:27-30; 2 Cor 5:19-21, 7:10; Gal 2:16-21, 3:10- 14, 4:4-5; Eph 1:3-14, 2:4-18; Phil 1:6, 3:8-9; Col 1:21-22; 1 Thes 2:13; 2 Thes 2:13; 1 Tim 2:4; 2 Tim 1:8-10; Titus 1:1, 2:11-14, 3:3-7; Jas 1:18; 1 Pet 1:2-5; 1 John 1:9, 4:9-10, 5:11- 13].

This interview includes conversations about the idols of evangelism and niceness, the infiltration of the church, fear-mongering, and love for the country.

EP 96 | Human Beings: Made in the Image of God (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth
EP 96 | Human Beings: Made in the Image of God (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth Human Beings. We teach Adam and Eve, the parents of the entire human race, were real people who were created in innocence, without sin and with the capacity, desire and mandate to glorify God in all things. All human beings, whether in the womb or out, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity or level of health, are images of God and are, therefore, inherently valuable and worthy of respect and protection. All human beings begin to exist as individuals at the moment of conception. Thus, we strongly oppose abortion and euthanasia as well as all kinds of research and procedures that destroy unborn children. We teach that while the highest goal for humanity is still to glorify God, in Adam’s sin the whole human race fell, inherited the guilt of his sin and a sinful nature, becoming spiritually dead, enslaved to sin and alienated from God so that all people are now sinners both by nature, inclination, choice and action. We teach that humanity is guilty before God, completely infected by sin and incapable of saving himself from his depraved condition, leaving every human that has ever lived (except for Jesus) hopelessly lost and destined for God’s wrath for their sins. This understanding leads us to reject all concepts of universal salvation. We also teach that for those who are trusting in Jesus for their salvation, at the moment of physical death their souls go immediately to heaven and remain there in sinless, conscious bliss until their resurrection when their souls and bodies are reunited forever. For those who do not trust in Jesus for their salvation, at the moment of physical death their souls go to hell and remain there in conscious misery until their souls and bodies are reunited at their resurrection. At that time, they will be judged, found guilty and cast into the Lake of Fire, eternally separated from God in conscious punishment. We reject all forms of reincarnation, purgatory, soul sleep, spirit prison and annihilation as well as anyone remaining on earth in a different form or getting a second chance to be saved after death.

EP 95 | Creation: Science and Scripture (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth Pastors Jon Benzinger, Dale Thackrah, and Kyle Swanson explain our doctrinal statement on Creation. Creation. We teach a young earth, meaning the six days in Genesis 1 refer to days not ages, making creation thousands, not billions of years old. Genesis gives us a trustworthy paradigm for doing scientific research. There was no gap between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. We also teach a literal (not poetic or allegorical) interpretation of what is real history in Genesis 1-11, creation out of nothing (ex nihilo), the special creation of an historical Adam & Eve, an historical Noah and a worldwide flood. We are not convinced there is any evidence for species to species evolution.

EP 94 | The Trinity Explained (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth
EP 94 | The Trinity Explained (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth Pastor Jon Benzinger explains our doctrinal statement on the Trinity. The Trinity. We teach that there is only one true and living God, who eternally exists in three persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit. Though the Son submits to the Father, and the Spirit submits to the Father and to the Son, each Person is equal in every divine perfection and each executes a distinct, but harmonious function in the works of creation, providence, and redemption. Each divine person equally deserves worship and obedience.

EP 93 | God the Spirit Explained (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth
EP 93 | God the Spirit Explained (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth Pastors Jon Benzinger, Dale Thackrah, and Kyle Swanson discuss God the Spirit. Who is God the Spirit? Who is the Holy Spirit? God The Holy Spirit. We teach that the Holy Spirit, the Third Person of the Trinity, is personal, meaning He thinks, feels, desires, chooses and acts. He is omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent and eternal. He created and preserves the world, was actively involved in Jesus’ earthly life (e.g., His conception, empowering His ministry, at His Crucifixion and His Resurrection), was sent by the Father and the Son in fulfillment of the New Covenant as Jesus’ comforting replacement, is the Divine Author and Interpreter of Scripture, convicts of sin, restrains evil, grants new life to the spiritually dead, places all believers into Christ and the one true church, convinces them to repent and believe, indwells them permanently, empowers biblical preaching, gives Christians access to God, leads them away from and empowers them for victory over sin, transforms them into the image of Jesus, produces godly character, prays for them, gifts them for ministry, seals and protects them until He raises them from the dead and in all things brings glory to Jesus. We teach that while God can certainly work miracles today, they were prominent only during certain periods in biblical history, being given to authenticate someone’s ministry as truly speaking or working for God. The offices of apostle and prophet ended with the Apostle John. The ‘gift’ or ability to perform miracles was never intended to be the normal Christian life and no one is performing miraculous gifts at will today (e.g., tongues / languages, prophecy, healing, etc.). Spiritual gifts are ministries given to every Christian for the purpose of blessing and edifying others. No specific ‘gift’ is evidence of salvation. No ‘word from the Lord,’ feeling or impression will ever contradict or supersede what the Spirit has already said in the Bible He authored. [Gen 1:2; Exod 4:30-31, 7:17; Job 33:4; 1 Kgs 17:24; Pss 33:6, 51:11, 104:30, 115:3, 139:7- 10; Isa 6:9-10 (comp. to Acts 28:25-27) 32:14, 44:3, 61:1, 63:10-11; Ezek 36:27, 39:29; Joel 2:28-29; Matt 3:16, 12:28-32, 28:19; Luke 1:35, 7:15-16; John 3:2-8, 6:63, 10:38, 14:11, 14:16-17, 14:26, 15:26-27, 16:7-15; Acts 1:16, 2:22, 5:3-4, 10:38, 15:28, 28:25; Rom 1:4, 8:2-27; 1 Cor 2:10-11, 3:16, 6:11, 6:19, 12:4-13, 13:8-10; 2 Cor 3:17, 12:12, 13:14; Gal 5:16-18, 5:22-23; Eph 1:13-14, 2:18, 2:22, 4:7-12, 4:30, 5:18; 2 Thes 2:6-8; Titus 3:5; Heb 9:14, 10:15-16; 1 Pet 1:10-11, 1:23-25; 2 Pet 1:21; 1 John 4:13].

EP 89 | God Is the Author of the Bible (with Dr. Bill Roach) | Redeeming Truth: Touchy Subjects Jon Benzinger, Dr. F David Farnell, and Dr. Bill Roach discuss biblical inerrancy. When it comes to the Scriptures, we believe in the inspiration of Scripture, meaning that the Bible is the Word of God. God is the ultimate source of Scripture. If that’s the case, there are going to be some critical characteristics of Scripture that are going to be obvious if God is the author. One of those characteristics is inerrancy, meaning that it’s not going to have any errors. This is (and has been for many years) a touchy subject. Our goal for this podcast is the think through these things on a level that will be helpful.

EP 87 | God the Son Explained (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth
EP 87 | God the Son Explained (Our Doctrinal Statement) | Redeeming Truth Distinguishing the God of the Bible. Pastors Jon Benzinger, Dale Thackrah, and Kyle Swanson discuss God the Son. Who is God the Son? If you can not affirm the true deity of Christ, you are not a Christian. God The Son, The Lord Jesus Christ. We teach that the eternally divine Son of God, the Second Person of the Trinity, the visible image of God, through Whom God the Father created the world and currently upholds it, is not created or eternally subordinate to the Father ontologically, though He is satisfyingly subordinate to the Father relationally. He was prophetically predicted in the Old Testament, became truly human when He was conceived by the Holy Spirit in a virgin named Mary and was born Jesus of Nazareth. His divine and human natures are now and forever united in His one Person, without mixture, confusion, division or separation. At no time during His stay on earth was Jesus anything other than truly Divine though He had all the limitations that come with being human, yet without sin or a sinful nature. We consider Him our final Prophet, Great High Priest and Sovereign King. His existence, virgin conception and birth, sinless life, miracles, and teachings are true and historical, as are His substitutionary, atoning, once-for-all-time death, burial, physical resurrection, ascension into heaven, present building of and perpetual intercession for His church. He will return to reign as earth’s King in the future. In light of all of this, belief in Him is the only way any person can or ever will be saved. [Gen 3:15, 49:10; Num 24:17; Deut 18:15-18; 1 Chr 17:12-14; Pss 2:6-12, 16:10, 22:1-18, 110:1-7, 118:22; Isa 7:14, 52:13-53:12; Dan 2:44-45, 9:24-25; Mic 5:2; Zech 9:9, 12:10; Matt 1:23-25, 28:18-20; Mark 1:1,10:45; Luke 1:26-35, 2:10-11; John 1:1-3, 1:29, 5:18-23, 8:58, 10:17-18, 10:30, 14:6-10; 17:3-5, 20:28; Acts 1:9-11, 2:22-24, 4:11-12, 13:33-35, 17:30-31, 20:28; Rom 5:6; 1 Cor 15:3; 2 Cor 5:21; Eph 1:20-22; Phil 2:5-11; Col 1:15-17, 2:9; 1 Thes 4:13-17; 1 Tim 2:5, 3:16; Titus 2:11-14; Heb 1:2-12, 2:14-18, 4:14-15, 7:23-28, 9:25-28, 10:14; 1 Pet 1:18-19, 2:22, 3:18; 2 Pet 1:1; 1 John 2:1-2, 5:11-13; Rev 1:5].

Who is God the Father? Is the God in the New Testament the same God in the Old Testament? It matters to know the Creator and Sustainer of the universe rightly. To understand Him in a way that is not according to His Word is, at best, to have false views about Him. In the worst scenario, you’ve created an idol that you worship instead of the one true God. It is critical that we understand Him rightly.

Ep 29 | Can Women be Pastors or Elders? | Redeeming Truth
A listener recently asked, “What is your view on women holding the title of ‘Pastor’ or ‘Elder?’” While this can be a loaded question in today’s world, it has nothing to do with equality (since we’re all equal in God’s eyes), and everything to do with roles in marriage and ministry. Like a winning team, God has designed certain positions for us to play as we “win” for His glory together. In this episode of #RedeemingTruth Pastors Jon Benzinger and Costi Hinn dig into what the Bible has to say about the high calling and unique roles that both women and men have from God.

Ep 26 | How Should We View Dreams & Visions? | Redeeming Truth
Some people chase dreams and visions, others rudely dismiss any supernatural claim as nothing but fakery. How should we respond to people who say they had a dream or a vision?

Ep 24 | Culture Wars: Lust, Homosexuality, & Transgenderism | Redeeming Truth
When it comes to these topics, Christians need biblical answers. Can you be a gay Christian? Should we use someone’s preferred pronoun? If something is a sin, is it sinful to want to do it even if we don’t act on it? If Jesus was tempted like us, does that mean He had homosexual temptations? In this extensive interview, Costi Hinn asks Dr. Owen Strachan and Gavin Peacock the toughest questions about lust, homosexuality, and transgenderism. Buy Strachan & Peacock’s newest trilogy on these topics here: https://www.10ofthose.com/us/products?q=strachan+ or find all 3 books on Amazon.com 6.

If you are navigating homeschooling for the first time, the questions and opinions around this topic can be confusing and unrealistic.

Ep 21 | How to Find a Biblical Church | Redeeming Truth

Ep 22 | What Did Jesus Mean in Matthew 18:19?* | Redeeming Truth
*This video was recorded prior to CDC guidelines regarding social distancing. In Matthew 18:19 Jesus said, "Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven." Does this mean that if two people pray together or lay their hands on something that God will do anything they ask? In this episode of #RedeemingTruth, Pastors Jon Benzinger and Costi Hinn explain the context of Matthew 18:19 and what it means for the church.
