The Danger of Refusing to Go On Knowing

gwot.rocks - God, the World, and Other Things! ·

2025/06/30

📖 Episode Summary:“It is a dangerous thing to refuse to go on knowing.” These words from Oswald Chambers aren’t just poetic—they’re prophetic. In this piercing episode, we unpack the sobering truth that revelation demands a response. To linger in the past, to park at the last place God met you without moving forward, isn’t just disobedience—it’s dangerous.Drawing from Hebrews 10, John 12, James 1, and Philippians 3, this conversation invites you to reflect deeply on the places you may have stalled…

Unshakable Things

The announced episode number is incorrect. Episode 537 was injected into the podcast in light of the immediacy of the situation. The following is a rework of the Charles Spurgeon Evening Devotion for June 22which was first published in 1866. The estimated writing year for June 22 devotion would have been Circa 1865 or early 1866. His words written down by candle or lamplight approximately 160 years ago are soberingly impactful and apply to us at this very moment in history. As soon as I read it I

Well, here we are once again, at the doorway to the end of days...or so it seems. I recorded this podcast on Friday, June, 20, 2025.

2025/06/16

Welcome back to part two of our series. In just the last few days of this writing, a major exposé dropped—documented by dozens of interviews—revealing deep moral compromise tied directly to sexual promiscuity along with the habitual use of alcohol by one of Christian music’s most recognizable voices. This story, as heartbreaking as it is, isn’t an isolated one. Influence is a sacred responsibility. But in the Christian music industry, we’re watching that influence turn into indulgence...Disclaimer:

Episode 1: The Bar in the Room: What’s Being Served...

2025/06/12

Welcome to this first episode in our 3-part series, “The Bar in the Room.” In this series, we’re not here to make alcohol the chief of sins. We’re here to hold a light up to a pattern that’s spreading unchecked in Christian music culture—one that is quietly shifting the atmosphere from hospitality to hedonism. 1 Peter 5:8 calls us to be alert, to be sober-minded. Because the enemy prowls, looking for someone to devour. And he doesn’t always come roaring. Sometimes he comes clinking in a

Benighted in the Wilderness

gwot.rocks - God, the World, and Other Things! ·

2025/06/09

Charles Spurgeon wrote a profound statement in his evening devotion for May 7th: "We would not wish to enter heaven till our work is done, and it may be that we are yet ordained to minister light to souls benighted in the wilderness of sin." That word "benighted" sparked my curiosity. It is a power-packed Old-English word that paints a haunting image in you soul. I pray that this podcast moves you to action to in being a light bearer of Jesus Christ to those who are not just people walking through

When Faith Become Presumption

gwot.rocks - God, the World, and Other Things! ·

2025/06/05

This episode focuses on a serious but often overlooked spiritual danger: when faith slowly turns into presumption.At first glance, they look alike. Faith believes God can move mountains. Faith trusts His promises. Faith stands firm. But presumption hijacks that language and runs with it… without relationship, without reverence, and without surrender. In Charles Spurgeon’s Morning by Morning devotion for May 25th , and he writes: “It is not faith to test the Lord, and expect that He will deliver

Mea Culpa

gwot.rocks - God, the World, and Other Things! ·

2025/06/02

Today’s episode centers around a weighty, almost sacred phrase: “Mea culpa.” It’s Latin, it’s ancient, and yet, it’s as relevant as ever — especially in a world allergic to accountability.Our story today is filtered through the strange beauty of an old television show, Northern Exposure, and its quietly devastating 16th episode of Season 5. Northern Exposure gives us a window into healthy remorse — a category we desperately need to recover. “Mea culpa” — it means “through my fault”, or more

Universalism

2025/05/26

In today’s episode, we’re pulling back the veil on a doctrine that may sound loving, but leads to destruction: universalism. We will define and trace the origins of universalism, expose its ancient heretical roots, and contrast it with the early church’s faithful witness. It is hard to believe that this critically damaging heresy (false teaching) gets any traction today, especially with recent historical figures Adolf Hitler, Pol Pot, Joseph Stalin, and Mussolini, but it is rearing its deadly head,

Yahweh-What’s Missing in This Worship?

gwot.rocks - God, the World, and Other Things! ·

2025/05/19

🎙️ A popular worship song praises “Yahweh” without naming Jesus—but does that honor the God who fully revealed Himself in Christ? In this episode, we examine the theological concern and return to the New Testament’s witness: that the story of Yahweh finds its fulfillment in Jesus, the eternal Son. (Gal. 4:4; Heb. 1:1–2; Col. 2:9)📝 Disclaimer:Lyrics from “Yahweh” by CYA Worship are used respectfully and under fair use for theological critique.

You Can’t Buy What’s Already Been Paid For!

You ever hear that line from *Stairway to Heaven"...*She’s buying a stairway to heaven.”? Well, I looked up who owns the song—and found the rights are held by a company called *Succubus Music*, directed by Jimmy Page himself. That’s not just creepy—it’s spiritually revealing.Here’s the truth: you can’t buy your way to heaven. Not with money. Not with good deeds. Not with mysticism. You can’t buy what’s already been paid for. Jesus didn’t leave room for another payment plan. The cross was
