The risen Jesus appeared to John of Patmos and instructed him to write what he saw to seven churches in Asia Minor. In these letters, Jesus communicates in ways that reveal much about who he is and his authority. This episode examines the first three letters to the seven churches in Revelation to uncover what we can learn about Jesus. We discover a Jesus that is most clearly understood within a high human christological framework.

In Revelation chapter 1, the exalted Jesus appears to John of Patmos. John offers readers many descriptions of Jesus that reveal much about his Christology. This episode examines seven of these characteristics from a Jewish theological perspective, a Roman imperial perspective, and a scriptural allusion perspective. We find that Jesus is a highly exalted and exceptionally authorized human being.

In this episode, we explore the implications of Jesus being described in terms that associate him with the Lord God. Our first test case examines the combined biblical citations of God being pierced and the Son of Man. The second test case seeks to understand the meaning of the title "Alpha and Omega," which is used by both the Lord God and Jesus. We conclude that Jesus Christ is regularly portrayed as an authorized human being who has received prerogatives, kingship, and glory from the true God.

The Book of Revelation has much to say about Jesus Christ's person and identity. This episode introduces the Christology of Revelation by examining how Jesus is portrayed in the opening verses of the first chapter. We note that Revelation depicts Jesus as subordinate to God, distinguished from God, and faithful to God.

The Book of Revelation is known for its images and metaphors. This episode explores how Revelation reveals the person and identity of the true God. The most powerful image of God is that he is the one seated upon the throne. This image, which expresses the truth that God is in charge and he is ruling, is later employed within the narrative of Revelation to show that the exalted Jesus shares in God's rule. The Book of Revelation is also clear that the true God is the God of Jesus. We furthermore draw attention to the fact that the one seated upon the throne is to be the God of the intended readers.

While the Hebrew concept called the "plural of majesty" described the one God with plural forms in order to heighten his excellence, what are we to make of plural forms used to describe individual human beings? This episode looks at instances in the Hebrew Bible where human individuals are portrayed with plural nouns, not unlike the plural of majesty examples. If plural forms can be used to describe human beings when it is clear that only one individual is in view, then the same conclusions should be drawn when plural forms are used for the Lord God, who is one person.

As we continue to examine the plural of majesty, which seeks to explain how Israel's one God came to be expressed in occasional plural forms, we see that God's holiness is poetically depicted in the plural. We also explore references to God as the Creator and even as the covenant husband of Israel, which are sometimes in the plural. Lastly, we find that the plural of majesty has extended into biblical Aramaic sections of Scripture, particularly in regard to God as the Most High.

The God revealed in the Old Testament is awesome and majestic, but this God is still a single, undivided self--one person. He is expressed in plural forms, like elohim, for intensification purposes, and this is regarded by Hebrew grammarians as the plural of majesty. This episode explores how the plural of majesty is expressed throughout the Hebrew poetry of Psalms, where plural forms indicative of intensification are observed in verbs and multiple references to God's temple dwelling.

Does the plural form of the Hebrew noun elohim indicate that Yahweh is a plurality of persons? Hebrew grammarians call this concept the plural of majesty--namely when elohim is paired with singular verbs to indicate that God is only one person (not two or three persons). This episode introduces the plural of majesty in order to understand better the significance of plural references to God within the Hebrew Bible.

Apologists who attempt to defend the preexistence of Jesus sometimes suggest that Malachi 3:1 proves their claim. This episode examines Malachi 3:1 to see what it says, if anything, about the preexistence of Jesus. We listen to the wisdom of biblical scholars on Malachi and consider how the New Testament authors interpret it.

In this episode, we listen to the next segment of my recent debate/dialogue with Mr. Eric Miller on the nature of Jesus' preexistence. Eric Miller argued that Jesus did consciously preexist his birth while I argued that Jesus came into existence at his birth. We both have a chance to offer two rebuttals, with Mr. Miller beginning and with me following afterward. I offer some insights and commentary on why I framed my two rebuttals in the manner that I did. Feel free to listen to the debate in its entirety here: https://youtu.be/Nmg_y4q4RsQ

The first letter of Peter offers much insight into Petrine Christianity, especially its monotheism and Christology. This episode examines how Peter regarded the God of Jesus and wrestles with difficult passages surrounding Jesus' person and preexistence.
