Worldview Matters

Brannon’s guest is Dr. John Whitcomb for “Ask Dr. John.” Question: Are we all going to die before the world ends since you said the wrath of God will not be upon His people? Question: Our Sunday School teacher says all things will come to an end after Jesus comes back to earth as a thief in the night and all things burn up. I am confused. Some of the material I read calls those who believe in the rapture a false religion. How can we be brothers in the Lord with those of that mindset? What do you say? Question: I had thought that countries with a low percentage of Christians would experience very little tumult at the rapture. However, if all babies (born or unborn) and small children are taken up, the rapture will be an incredible event across the globe and across all cultures. If this is true, up to what age might “innocents” be raptured? Is there an “age of accountability” evident anywhere in Scripture? Question: I have heard some say that Mark 16:9-20 was not part of the original text written by Mark, but was added later. Should we consider these verses as inspired Scripture, and if so, why do you think they are missing from the early manuscripts? Question: I hold to Reformed Theology and do not accept the perpetuity of miracles and sign wonders, but 1 Cor. 13:8-10 has always confused me. Is this fulfilled in the future perfect world of Heb. 11:13-16 and 2 Pet. 3:13, 14? Question: I have a hard time accepting what Dr. Whitcomb said about a missionary who said he has witnessed miracles. Dr John basically said to deny what you see if you see a so-called miracle. And it sounded like Dr. John said that miracles do not occur at all, although Brannon said that miracles do still occur, but there just aren't gifts of miracles anymore. Question: I have a question regarding the Lord's Supper. Luke 22:19-20 says we are to break the bread and drink the cup in remembrance of Him; however the Catholic Church believes that when we partake of the Lord's Supper the bread and wine become the body and blood. Isn't this what Jesus is telling us to do in this passage? I am confused and troubled by this. Question: What was the nature of the relationship between Pharaoh and Sarah in Gen. 12:10-20? Question: I have a friend that shares her Seventh Day Adventist beliefs with me quite often. She has told me that I am honoring the Sabbath on the wrong day, as it is to be honored on Saturday as it states in the Bible. She tells me that there will be judgment for those not following God's Word in honoring the true Sabbath day. What should I do? Question: Do you see any dangers with Messianic Judaism and related movements?

Brannon’s guest is Chris Rosebrough. Charisma magazine publishes an article taking on those that call The International House of Prayer a theological cult. Chris explains how he came out of the Latter Rain Movement that is today’s New Apostolic Reformation and why it is dangerous and unbiblical. Brannon and Chris explain why they declare IHOP to be a theological cult. Hear audio clips of Mike Bickle and Misty Edwards leading students in “worship” that seems more like a mantra and rhythm designed for the purpose of leading the students into an altered state of consciousness or at the very least to have an emotional experience void of logic and reason. Hear Bickle and Edwards “prophecy”. Why are pro-family leaders defending and/or promoting IHOP and what does it say about the success of a religious Trojan horse?

Brannon’s guest is Chris Rosebrough. Topic: What is more offensive to you; secular companies that take Christ out of Christmas, or self-professing Christians promoting false teachers that are promoting a false Jesus and false gospel? American Family Association recently released their naughty and nice list of companies that do and do not acknowledge Christmas. However, is this really nothing more than straining at gnats while swallowing camels? AFA/AFR interviewed false teacher Heidi Baker this past year on their radio network and have worked with the likes of Lou Engle and the International House of Prayer. Should Christians be more concerned about secular companies taking Christ out of Christmas or self-professing Christian and pro-family groups giving credibility to people that have taken the Biblical Christ out of Christianity? Chris asked a very important question during this program—-how many people are going to enter hell for not saying “Merry Christmas”? None! How many will go to hell because they embraced a false Jesus and a false gospel proclaimed by false teachers? The answer is millions and millions. The “war on Christmas” by unbelieves should not be our ultimate concern compared to the war on the Biblical gospel and the Biblical Jesus by modern-day evangelicalism. Topic: Rick Warren makes the rounds of the secular media to promote the 10 year anniversary of his Purchase Driven Life book.

Brannon’s guest is Pastor and author, Randy White of First Baptist Church of Katy, Texas. Question: Do you find that people visit your church and leave because you are so theological and doctrinally focused? Question: What is your driving goal as a pastor?

Question: Has the true church been strengthened since the fall of communism? Question: Will Romania remain a free and democratic country? Question: Do you think America will remain free? Question: You recently preached on Christians and politics at your church. Tell me what you told your congregation about trusting in the political process. Question: Is the church today addressing the real issues and needs of our culture? Question: What kind of theological flaws do you see in the church today? Question: Are the flaws in church and society an indication of end times? Topic: We take calls from our listeners.

Brannon’s guest is Chris Pinto. Brannon and Chris discuss their Thanksgiving visits with family and extended family. Chris was confronted by his Catholic grandfather about his latest film exposing the false teaching of the Church of Rome. Hear how this led to a family discussion on the Church of Rome and defense of the gospel. Brannon shares how a 20 year old college student, that is only related to him by marriage thankfully, attacked him with name-calling when he expressed his position on homosexuality. Did the other Christians at the table see this as an opportunity to discuss a very important issue in this postmodern world since there where so many high school and college students present or did most people just want the controversy to go away for the sake of family harmony? What message do we send to our high school and college students when we compromise truth for group consensus around the dinner table? How has all the focus on the family and so little focus on Biblical truth given us families that do not know how to contend for the faith and that actually put family above truth? What did Jesus say about this in Matthew 10:21-22 and 34-36? Brannon and Chris then take calls from listeners on the kind of conversations they had around the Thanksgiving table.

Brannon's guest is Mike Gendron. Topic: When how independent should churches be within a denomination? Topic: Throughout church history we have seen professing Christians, churches, denominations and seminaries depart from the faith and drift into apostasy. What is apostasy? Topic: What was the first major catalyst that caused some of the 2nd century churches to depart from the faith? Topic: How did the fall of the Roman Empire impact the early church? Topic: How would you describe the Roman Church of the middle ages? Topic: How corrupt did the papacy become? Topic: What can we learn from history?

On Today’s program Brannon plays excerpts and audio clips from the sermon his pastor preached the Sunday after the Presidential election. What is happening to America? How should Christians respond? How has God warned America of His coming national judgment? Why is there strong evidence that God has given over America? Is persecution likely to increase on real Christians? What 5 specific things should we as Christians do in response to what is occurring in America? Few pastors would preach a sermon like this and few “Christians” today would stay in a church with a pastor that preaches like this. Get out your Bible and be ready to be challenged and encouraged. We open up our phone lines for listener response and the lines are jammed with callers from all over America.

Brannon’s guest is Dr. Jimmy DeYoung for this week’s Middle East update. Topic: Brannon begins the program by giving his thoughts on Sean Hannity calling for giving citizenship to illegal immigrants. Brannon reminds the audience that several months ago he predicted that as things deteriorate in America, “conservatives” will be pushing the agenda of the globalist and communitarians. Brannon also reminds the radio audience that it is the Hegelian Dialectic process that is conditioning “conservatives” to embrace leftist ideas. Remember the Communist Party USA has also been calling for illegal immigrants to be granted American citizenship.

Part Two (Part one was November 6)Brannon’s guest is Justin Peters to discuss the book Jesus Calling that has reportedly sold more than 3 million copies. Sarah says the she was influenced to write Jesus Calling in part by reading God Calling which was a book written in the 1930s by two mystic Catholic. Sarah says she longed to have Jesus speak to her because she long for more than just the Bible. Why does Brannon believe this a very dangerous book that is promoting mysticism which undermines the authority of God’s Word.

On today’s Worldview Weekend Radio Brannon Howse and Justin Peters discuss how the New Religious Right assisted in the re-Election of President Obama and are hastening God’s judgment of America. The pro-family groups and evangelicals that united up with false teachers for one prayer rally and spiritual event after another in hopes of defeating Obama not only failed politically but they also failed Biblically. Thus, Brannon believes the New Religious Right bear a lot of responsibility for the re-election of President Obama and what appears to be God’s hastening in His giving our nation over as described in Romans chapter one. Brannon and Justin explain why they are not down or discouraged and why you should not be either.
