This Wednesday I am joined by an old friend of mine from college, Chris Anderson. In this episode we walk through what he does as a coach for a little 500 team and how he uses it to impact the lives of the people not only on the team, but also in the race. We then turn a fundamental principle in the Christian faith. That principle is best laid out in the Latin phrase “Soli Deo Gloria” translated… to God alone be the Glory. We must remember the words of our Lord Jesus Christ on the sermon on the mount, “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”

Continuing on our Gospel foundations series, this week, we walk through how substitutionary atonement is crucial when understanding the gospel. We must believe and trust in Jesus Christ as our substitute on the cross. He bore the punishment that was due us. We remember in God’s word as it says in Isaiah 53: 4-5 and 11-12,
“Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed.”
“Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see and be satisfied; by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant, make many to be accounted righteous, and he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore I will divide him a portion with the many, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong, because he poured out his soul to death and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and makes intercession for the transgressors.”

My guest joining me this week on the Sunday series is my brother Bryce. Bryce just finished his undergraduate degree in philosophy and hopes to get his MDiv. from a seminary after he completes his undergrad. He hopes to be a pastor shepherding Gods people one day.
This week I interview a brother in Christ, John Lee. John is the founder of custommobile.app. Their boutique agency builds individualized mobile apps for podcasts starting at just $25/month. I am hoping to eventually take advantage of his service for my podcast! However, this was a small part of the podcast, we mostly spend our time talking about theological and philosophical problems in the church and world. We speak on a wide range of topics from apologetics, Molinism/Calvinism, and homosexuality/transgenderism. John had some AMAZING thoughts on transgenderism and I would definitely stay tuned in until the end to hear what he has to say! Thanks for listening!
Unbelievable? episode with James White and William Lane Craig arguing Molinism and Calvinism that was alluded to in our conversation. You can find it here. Choose wahtever podcasting platform you use at the bottom of the page!
Continuing on the Gospel Foundations series, we discuss on this episode the concept of being born again. We provide scriptural evidence and we walk through what it means to be born again. This we must remember is all an act of God as we cannot force the spirit of God to act according to our wills for it says in John 1: 11-13, “He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.” I hope you enjoy the episode and it is edifying to you!

This week, I speak with Dr. Robert Yoho on Covid and some of the deceitful things happening surrounding the virus.
Robert Yoho is 66 years old in 2020. He spent three decades as a cosmetic surgeon after a career as an emergency physician. His generalist training gives him perspective and allows him to avoid favoring any medical specialty. ABBREVIATED PROFESSIONAL CV: ✪ American Society of Cosmetic Breast Surgery: fellow, trustee, officer, and past-president. ✪ American Board of Cosmetic Surgery: passed board exams and twice re-certified. ✪ American Board of Emergency Medicine: passed board exams and twice re-certified. ✪ Fellow American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery (inactive). ✪ New Body Cosmetic Surgery Center: founder & director (inactive). ✪ American Association Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) accredited surgical/medical practice for over 25 years.
Here are the links that Dr. Yoho asked me to upload Covid is little to worry about if you have the proper medications and treatment. For the critical Joe Rogan/McCollough interview, see HERE. For my podcasts, click HERE. One of my best interviews is HERE. Here is my essay A BASIC GUIDE TO COVID. Another link, WHY COVID IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND has many references and more detailed explanations. Peter McCullough, MD, is a famed academic. He reports that 85 percent of the fatalities would be prevented by ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamin D, and other treatments used early and in combination. Read more about the dangers of the “vaccine” HERE and listen to these two videos. Peter McCullough now believes the entire vax effort should be halted and studied. Here is a summary of Dr. McCullough’s video in the last link. We are killing more people in every age group than we are saving.

We continue in our Gospel Foundations series on the For The King podcast with this short episode on reconciliation. This concept is crucial when trying to understand the good news of Jesus Christ. We were once alienated from God because of our sin, but now, through Christ, we are reconciled back to God as Adam and Eve once were in the garden. Thanks for listening!

This Sunday, church leaders across the globe join our Canadian brothers and sisters in speaking the clear biblical truth about the church’s view on human sexuality. This is exactly what Christians should do in the midst of persecutions. They should preach the clear message of Jesus Christ from the pulpit being careful to teach the full council of God’s word.
“preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.” -2 Timothy 4:2 ESV
If you have not heard then incline your ear to my words. Canada has passed a pagan bill outlawing the Christian worldview in Canada. This Sunday is dedicated to supporting our brothers and sisters in Canada by preaching God’s law against the sexual perversions of our modern day. There will be faithful pastors in Canada like James Coates and Joe Boot that will be preaching on the topic this Sunday. They will thus be criminalizing themselves and risk because arrested and taken away from their family. These are the kind of men we need in Christendom. I thank God for them but I also am apprehensive to see what takes place this Sunday. I am no pastor, so I am unable to deliver a sermon this Sunday. However, I do have my podcast and this platform. I intend to speak on the topic as well and condemn the perversion of sexuality in our modern day. I have already addressed the topic here and here and I continue to do so because this is what it means to love your neighbor. On page 33 of J Gresham Machen’s book Christianity and Liberalism, he states
The Golden Rule furnishes an example. “Do unto others as you would have others do unto you”–is that rule a rule of universal application, will it really solve all the problems of society? A little experience shows that such is not the case. Help a drunkard to get rid of his evil habit, and you will soon Christianity & Liberalism come to distrust the modern interpretation of the Golden Rule. The trouble is that the drunkard’s companions apply the rule only too well; they do unto him exactly what they would have him do unto them –by buying him a drink. The Golden Rule becomes a powerful obstacle in the way of moral advance. But the trouble does not lie in the rule itself; it lies in the modern interpretation of the rule. The error consists in supposing that the Golden Rule, with the rest of the Sermon on the Mount, is addressed to the whole world. As a matter of fact the whole discourse is expressly addressed to Jesus’ disciples; and from them the great world outside is distinguished in the plainest possible way. The persons to whom the Golden Rule is addressed are persons in whom a great change has been wrought–a change which fits them for entrance into the Kingdom of God. “1
True love calls for a right-side upness to reality. Unfortunately, our society has turned things upside down and they beckon us to do the same. This has been a long time coming and our eyes, however, have been shut. We should not be surprised that the west has ended up in a place like bill C-4. We have utterly abandoned God’s word as the standard by which we live by and build civilizations on. However, there is nothing new under the sun and the world’s affront to God’s word has happened before and will happen again.
On page 59 of J Gresham Machen’s book Christianity and Liberalism, he states,
“But the loss of the consciousness of sin is far deeper than the war; it has its roots in a mighty spiritual process which has been active during the past seventy-five years. Like other great movements, that process has come silently—so silently that its results have been achieved before the plain man was even aware of what was taking place. Nevertheless, despite all superficial continuity, a remarkable change has come about within the last seventy-five years. The change is nothing less that the substitution of paganism for Christianity as the dominant view of life. Seventy-five years ago, Western civilization, despite inconsistencies, was still predominantly Christian; today it is predominantly pagan.”2
This quote is quite revealing of what we have missed in the church in the present day. Machen was commenting on liberalism this way in 1923! Have we fallen asleep? There are two competing worldviews at war in the west. That of secularism and that of historic Christian values. There is no neutrality and we must realize we are in a war. We sit idly as God’s word is trampled upon and watch the loss of freedoms that Christians have enjoyed in the west for thousands of years. We send out missionaries in swathes, yet we haven’t evangelized our own house. Machen called the west pagan in 1923 and if you think things have gotten better then prudence would call for you to look around and wake up.
We have been given marching orders (Matt. 28:18-20). There is no peacemaking with evil. We go to battle every day, and now our Canadian brothers go to war this Sunday. We ought to wake up in the church and see what is happening. Christianity is outlawed in Canada and it most definitely can happen here. The enemy is on our turf, stand up or get stood on. Pray diligently for our brothers and sisters in Canada. May the Lord have mercy on us.
For The King, Rocky

This Wednesday I have the pleasure of continuing my interview with brother Dr. Ben Edwards. Dr. Edwards M.D is a practicing physician at Veritas Medical with locations on the west side of Texas. He is the proprietor of the “You’re the Cure” podcast/radio program and graduated from UT-Houston medical school. He started off as a conventional doctor but changed his mind after a life experience that left him clueless as to the current medical system. Our conversation was enlightening and fascinating on so many levels. It was amazing to have this podcast and have the opportunity to interact with him personally as the interviewer. I hope you enjoy the episode and the truth conveyed there within.
Continuing on our Gospel Foundations series Bryce and I delve into the idea of God adopting us as his sons. The sons receive the inheritance and if we want to inherit God’s blessings then we ought to hope that he would choose us and adopt us as his sons. What a wonderful foundational gospel truth we can always remember when alone, without family, and in despair. We have a father that loves us if you are in Christ. If not, his patience will not last forever. Thanks for tuning in and listening!
