Truths From The Text

Ep. 19 - How We Know The Holy Trinity

In this episode we begin a new series on the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. We focus especially on how we come to know that God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in contrast to how we might come to know other truths about God (that He exists, is incorporeal, etc.).

Ep. 18 - Relative Names Pt. 3 (Creator, Lord, etc.)

In this episode we review and explore some of the more challenging aspects of saying relative names of God.

Ep. 17 - Relative Names Pt. 2 (Creator, Lord, etc.)

In this episode we continue our study of "relations" and how to say relative names of God (Creator, Lord, etc.).

Ep. 16 - Introduction to Relative Names (Creator, Lord, etc.)

In this episode we begin a new topic of how to say certain Relative Names of God, such as "God is Creator," "God is Lord," and so forth.

Ep. 15 - Adam, Seth, and Spiritual Generation

We conclude our study of Moses Maimonides treatment of metaphorical names by looking at "Begetting" and "Abiding."

Ep. 14 - God is a "Rock," and God "Approaches"

We continue to work through Moses Maimonides treatment of common Hebrew metaphors as they are said of God.

Ep. 13 - God's "Place," "Throne," and "Ascends/Descends"

We continue to work through Moses Maimonides treatment of common Hebrew predicates and their diverse senses, remembering always that God does not have a body.

Ep. 12 - God "Sits," "Stands," and "Arises"

Holy Scripture frequently speaks of God under the metaphors of sitting, standing, and arising. What do these different bodily postures mean when we say them of the incorporeal God?
