How are we to responsibly interpret the fact that the Bible both calls certain exceptional human beings "God" and insists that there is only one true God? The answer lies in the fact that the true God can invest his authority into certain human beings as his representatives, such as a prophet, a judge, and even a royal king. This connection appears to be the most prudent way to understand Jesus being called "God," despite being the human Messiah.

Why does it seem that the most exalted praises are given to Jesus after his resurrection? Is the risen Jesus equal in status and rank with God the Father? How should we interpret the fact that God has titles and Jesus is often addressed with those very same titles? This episode seeks to answer these questions by looking at the exaltation of the human Jesus.

What does the New Testament teach about Jesus' death that has implications for biblical Christology? Did Jesus completely die or did he only partially die? Does that New Testament teach that God died on the cross? These questions will be answered in this week's episode dealing with Jesus' death.

Did Jesus have a God? This might sound like a strange question to some, but Jesus stated on multiple occasions that he did indeed has a God above him. The God of Jesus is also addressed as "my Father" many times in the New Testament. This episode will examine how Jesus understood the Father as 'his God' and will examine how Jesus acted in subordination to God the Father.

In this episode, we explore the principle of agency wherein a sent agent fully represents the one who sent him. We demonstrate that this understanding of agency was practically taken for granted within the first-century Jewish world and note how Jesus operates as God's authoritatively sent agent. Since Jesus is God's agent, Jesus can exercise divine prerogatives, speaks God's words, and fully represent God without compromising monotheism.

In this episode, we examine how the four New Testament Gospel accounts portray Jesus as a human figure. Do Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John call Jesus a "human being?" Is Jesus portrayed as omniscient in the manner that Yahweh is omniscient? Do the four Gospels describe Jesus as growing in understanding, as one who learns, or even as one who has limited knowledge as all human beings possess? This episode seeks to answer these questions as we continue to explore what the Bible has to say about Jesus Christ, the human Messiah.

We continue our discussion of how the New Testament authors describe the birth of Jesus. We examine this in this episode how Romans, Galatians, 2 Timothy, Hebrews, 1 John, and Revelation describe Jesus' birth and origins, namely as a human figure descending from the family lines of Abraham, Judah, Jesse, and King David.

This episode seeks to answer whether Jesus was "begotten" (brought into existence) or not. Both Matthew and Luke offer birth narratives and lengthy genealogies wherein Jesus' birth is described in detail. Luke, having also authored the Book of Acts, offers his thoughts on Jesus' origins in both documents, so we will explore both his Gospel and Acts in this episode.

This episode continues our exploration throughout the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible) in which we observe how the Messiah was expected to be of the line of David, thus making him an authentic human figure. The Old Testament has a lot to say about the coming Son of David, especially within the Psalms and the Prophets. As the Son of David, Jesus exists as the climactic and long-awaited human descendant, and Jesus being a human figure is one of the central points of Biblical Unitarianism.
This episode of the Biblical Unitarian Podcast will give you plenty to talk about as you begin conversations with others on these critically important topics of faith and theology.

The Old Testament regards the coming messianic figure to be of the line of King David, clearly making him a human being (as David was). In fact, there are so many passages repeating and expounding this "Son of David" theology that it will require two episodes of the Biblical Unitarian Podcast to cover them all, and those are just the ones within the Old Testament.
If the Messiah was to descend from the line of King David, then he would be both an authentic human figure as well as one who was distinct from Israel's God, Yahweh. Our discussion on the Messiah as a descendant of David will surely give you something to talk about with your friends and family as it pertains to Jesus' identity and vocation.

In the first century C.E., Jesus was recognized by his followers as the "Messiah," a title denoting the anointed king of the kingdom in whom all of Israel's theology would find their climax. This office of Messiah came with a set of qualifications (i.e., job descriptions), and these qualifications are set out within the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible).
This episode of the Biblical Unitarian Podcast begins to survey the qualifications of the Messiah set out within the Old Testament, finding primarily that the passages that various Jewish groups drew upon to characterize the anticipated Messiah seem to regard this figure as an authentic human being. We hope that this episode encourages you to dust off your Old Testament so that you can start some healthy conversations regarding the important topic of Jesus Christ's identity.

One of the major truth claims of Biblical Unitarians is that the God of the Bible is a single person (rather than a multi-personal God taught within binitarian and trinitarian faiths). This episode begins to scratch the surface of the massive amount of biblical data that demonstrates that God is a single person. We survey a variety of texts, both in the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible) and within the New Testament.
We particularly note how Jesus Christ himself taught on multiple occasions this very truth, namely that God is one person. We hope that this episode helps you start conversations with your friends and family regarding this massively important subject.

"What is a Biblical Unitarian?" In this introductory episode, we set the scope for the Biblical Unitarian Podcast. In doing so, we define what a Biblical Unitarian is, what BUs believe, and the response we are attempting to produce among our listeners. Biblical Unitarians regard the God of the Bible to be a single, undivided person. They also recognize that the Bible teaches that Jesus Christ was a human being who did not literally preexist his birth in any way. These episodes are aimed to start cordial conversations and to get people talking intelligently about who God is and who Jesus is.
