Devotionary is a new podcast that is designed to make the Bible accessible and applicable to everyday life. It combines the inspiration of a daily devotional and the insights of a commentary, but in language that is easy-to-understand. We will be working our way through the entire Bible offering a chapter-by-chapter overview of each book. The goal is to give you a solid understanding of the Bible’s overarching and unified message of redemption. We hope you enjoy.

This is the second episode on 1 John, chapter five, verses 6-12 and its’ called, “God’s Testimony”. There are all kinds of opinions and testimonies concerning Jesus out there. And the truth is, there’s nothing new under the sun. The denials of Jesus’ deity and even the claims that He never even existed have been around since the days just after His death. Denying Jesus is one of the oldest sports known to mankind. But at the end of the day, it really doesn’t matter what men think. We should worry a lot more about what God has to say on the issue. And, according to John, God the Father has a lot to say about His Son. The naysayers, doubters, critics and postmodern deconstructionists can shout all they want. They can pontificate and posture, presenting the claims of the bible concerning Jesus as nothing more than fantasy, but God’s word supersedes theirs. His opinion is the only one that really matters. It was King David who said, “The fool says in his heart, “There is no God” (Psalm 14:1 ESV). And the same fool would say there is no Son of God. But John would side with David and have God as an expert witness.
