What "No Other Gods" Doesn't Mean

What does the first commandment really mean when it says, “You shall have no other gods before me”? In this episode, Jon Moffitt and Doug Van Dorn dig into the biblical language around Elohim, showing how Scripture speaks about spiritual beings while upholding the uniqueness of Yahweh. We tackle the common misunderstandings that arise when people assume the Bible denies the existence of other “gods,” explaining instead how the prophets and apostles used comparative and polemical language. If you’ve ever wondered how to reconcile these passages or why it matters for how we understand Christ and the gospel, this conversation is for you.

That Fringy Freewill and Predestination

What truly sets God apart from the gods? How does that connect to the age-old debate about free will and predestination? In this episode, Jon Moffitt and Doug Van Dorn dig into the supernatural side of salvation, exploring why the real opposite of free will might actually be the bondage of the will. From the nature of God’s incommunicable attributes to the “golden chain” of Romans 8, we unpack how predestination, calling, and regeneration are all divine acts of grace. Whether you’re new to the topic or have wrestled with it for years, this conversation bridges theology and the fringe with depth, clarity, and a few Bigfoot donut jokes along the way.
