  • Mystery Mailbag #19 – Christian Politics, Bible Translations, and Grace Alone
    Mar 12 2026

    In this latest Bible Mysteries Mailbag, Scott opens the listener mailbag to answer thoughtful questions, respond to challenging comments, and share powerful testimony from the audience.

    Listeners write in with questions about spiritual warfare, the Christian’s relationship to politics, Bible translations, salvation by grace, difficult passages of Scripture, and more. One moving testimony reminds us how the Lord uses His Word to reach people in the darkest moments and draw them back to truth.

    Scott addresses each topic with Scripture and careful reasoning, encouraging believers to focus on the gospel, rightly divide the Word of truth, and keep their eyes fixed on Christ rather than the systems of this world.

    Questions covered include:

    • A powerful testimony from a veteran who found Christ after a difficult season

    • Should Christians be involved in politics?

    • Are cities connected to spiritual powers?

    • What does the Bible say about the shape of the earth?

    • Why are some verses missing from modern Bible translations?

    • Could Lucifer create his own humans?

    • How do remission and retention of sins work in John 20:23?

    • Are works required for salvation or is grace alone sufficient?

    • Where listeners can access show notes and resources

    • A listener request about the viral “six seven” slang trend

    As always, Scott answers directly from Scripture and encourages believers to grow in their understanding of God’s Word.

    Thank you to everyone who wrote in and shared questions and testimonies.

  • Torment or Annihilation?: Days of Noah meets Bible Mysteries (Part 2) - Episode 273
    Mar 9 2026
    In this second part of our duocast with Pete Ohlinger from the Days of Noah Podcast, we continue examining one of the most serious and debated doctrines in Scripture: the nature of hell. Does the Bible teach eternal conscious punishment, or do the lost eventually cease to exist through annihilation? Building on the foundation laid in Part 1, Scott and Pete dig deeper into key passages that describe the final judgment, including the Lake of Fire, the Second Death, and the Great White Throne judgment. Along the way, they discuss how Scripture interprets Scripture, why context matters when studying words like eternal and everlasting, and how Jesus Himself warned repeatedly about the reality of hell. The conversation also addresses common arguments used to support annihilationism and compares them with passages that describe unending punishment. Special attention is given to the words of Jesus in Mark 9, the account of the rich man and Lazarus, and the prophetic descriptions found in Revelation. This discussion is not about winning a theological debate—it is about faithfully examining what the Bible says and allowing Scripture to shape our understanding of God’s justice, mercy, and the eternal consequences of rejecting the gospel. Join us as we conclude this important conversation and consider what the Word of God reveals about eternity. In This Episode Why the doctrine of hell must be grounded in ScriptureThe meaning of “everlasting” and “eternal” in biblical contextJesus’ warnings about hell in Mark 9 and Luke 16The Lake of Fire and the Second Death in RevelationThe Great White Throne judgment and judgment according to worksWhether punishment in hell may vary in severityWhy rejecting Christ ultimately determines eternal destiny Scriptures Referenced Daniel 12:2Matthew 25:46Mark 9:43–48Luke 16:19–312 Thessalonians 1:8–9Revelation 14:9–11Revelation 19:20Revelation 20:11–15Revelation 21:8 Listen to Part 1 If you missed the beginning of this discussion, be sure to listen to Episode 272: Eternal Torment or Annihilation?

  • Acts 15 Explained: Did Jewish Believers Still Keep the Law?
    Mar 8 2026
    One of the most debated questions in the Book of Acts is whether the Jewish believers in Jerusalem continued living under the Law of Moses after believing in Jesus Christ. Acts chapter 15 records a major council in Jerusalem where the apostles and elders gathered to address a serious dispute: some believers were teaching that Gentiles could not be saved unless they were circumcised and kept the Law of Moses. Was this teaching correct? Were the early Jewish believers still obligated to keep the law? Or had something fundamentally changed with the death and resurrection of Christ? In this lesson, we examine the Scriptures that clarify the relationship between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant. From the words of Peter, Paul, and the prophets, the Bible reveals that the Law of Moses was never meant to provide righteousness—it served as a schoolmaster pointing to Christ. When Jesus shed His blood, He fulfilled the law and established the New Covenant. Because of that finished work, believers today are not justified by the works of the law but by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Join us as we walk through the key passages that explain why Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Key Scriptures Acts 15:1–11Jeremiah 31:31–34Matthew 26:26–291 Corinthians 11:23–262 Corinthians 3:6–17Romans 10:1–4Hebrews 7:11–22Galatians 3:19–25Colossians 2:13–17 In This Lesson Why Acts 15 became a turning point in the early churchWhat Peter meant when he called the law a “yoke”Why the Old Covenant had to be replacedHow the New Covenant was established through Christ’s bloodWhy Jesus could not serve as High Priest under the Law of MosesWhat Paul meant when he said Christ is the end of the lawThe true purpose of the law in leading people to ChristWhy believers today live in the liberty of the New Covenant A Final Thought The Law of Moses revealed sin but could never remove it. Through His death, burial, and resurrection, Jesus Christ fulfilled the law and brought in a better covenant—one based on grace, righteousness, and the power of the Spirit. If you have never trusted Christ as your Savior, the invitation still stands: “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” And for those who are in Christ, Scripture reminds us to stand fast in the liberty we have in Him and not be entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
