Even AI Cannot Depict This

Posted on July 12, 2023July 12, 2023

This week, Fr. Paul notes the grammatical interconnection between Exodus and Revelation, which highlights the iconoclastic function of the Tent of Meeting, in which the Tabernacle, covered by the Tent, covers the Tabernacle, a warning that you are to live in the open wilderness, and not as the nations do, in temples of stone. (Episode…

The Ultimate Covenant

Posted on July 4, 2023July 4, 2023

In this week’s program, Fr. Paul explains that we are paying a high price for the false teaching of theologians who cannot hear or understand Scripture because they are too busy defending their own theology, which emasculates the throne of the Judge, resulting in violence. (Episode 281)

The Five Fingers

Posted on June 28, 2023June 28, 2023

This week Fr. Paul explains that those who are called sons and daughters of God — the insiders, so to speak — are special. Yes, you heard me correctly. You are special, but not as it is portrayed in our various theologies or, for that matter, any number of religious websites, where special means better…

This week Fr. Paul notes that the subject of the biblical text is determined by the story’s content and not by the sensibilities of those hearing the story.
