Welcome back to the Gospel Truth Project! This week, host Jason is flying solo (Dylan is out) and gives a quick update on the audiobook recording for his book, A Nobody's Opinion, before diving deep into a crucial, foundational topic: defining our biblical terms.

In a world where cults and cultural Christianity often use Christian vocabulary but rely on a completely different dictionary, how do we know we are actually speaking the same language? Jason emphasizes the importance of going Ad Fontes (to the original sources) to expose false claims and solidify true, historical, Christ-centered orthodoxy.

In this episode, we tackle the big questions: What does it actually mean to call yourself a Christian? How do we engage with fringe groups or door-to-door missionaries who use the same biblical words but entirely change their meanings?

Join us as we explore:

• Ad Fontes & Prima Scriptura: Why getting to the root of the original Greek and Hebrew text is vital, and how early church writings can help us understand Scripture without replacing its ultimate authority.
• Defining the Terms: A deep dive into the original, historical meaning of words like Christian (Christianos), Belief/Faith (Pistis), Grace (Charis), and the Sabbath.
• The Nicene Test: Defining the non-negotiable core of historic Christianity that unites believers (The Trinity, the Virgin Birth, the dual nature of Christ, salvation by grace, and the bodily return of Jesus).
• Apologetics in Action: Practical "Socratic Questions" you can use when talking to friends or members of the LDS church and Jehovah's Witnesses to expose doctrinal errors.
• Equipping the Saints: A look at free study tools like Blue Letter Bible, BibleRef, and Catena Bible to help you study the Word for yourself.

Don't just take Jason's word for it—grab your Bible, look up the original languages, and test everything against Scripture!

• Blue Letter Bible (App & Website)
• BibleRef.com
• CatenaBible.com

Welcome back to the Gospel Truth Project! This week is a special milestone—Jason and Brandon are sitting down for their very first IN-PERSON recording! No screens, no remote delays, just two friends with their Bibles open (and bellies full of sushi) diving deep into one of the most foundational, yet complex, doctrines of the Christian faith: The Trinity.

In this episode, we tackle the big questions: What does it actually mean that God is three distinct Persons but one Being? Does the Bible really teach the Trinity, or did the Council of Nicaea just make it up? (Spoiler alert: It’s all over the text!).

Join us as we explore:

• Genesis 1 & John 1: The beautiful connection between Elohim and the Word who was God.
• The Danger of Bad Analogies: Why explaining God as an egg, a shamrock, or water actually leads to the heresy of Modalism.
• The "I AM" Statements: How Jesus boldly used the Greek Septuagint to declare His deity during His trial.
• The Holy Spirit: Defending the personhood of the Spirit against the idea that He is just an "impersonal force," and addressing the difficult topic of the unforgivable sin.
• Exegesis vs. Eisegesis: Why getting to the root of the original Hebrew and Greek text is vital for understanding what the authors actually meant in their historical context.

Whether you're a long-time believer trying to wrap your mind around this majestic doctrine or someone exploring the faith for the first time, this conversation will remind you of the depth, power, and relational beauty of our Triune God. As Jason reminds us, you don't need a perfect intellectual grasp of the Trinity to be saved—you just need faith in Christ Jesus—but studying who God truly is brings us to a place of profound awe and humility.

Plus, stick around for some fun tangents about Star Trek conventions, the value of the Blue Letter Bible app, and a powerful testimony of how the Holy Spirit is moving in the world today.

Grab your study Bible and join the conversation!

(Note: Dylan will be jumping back on with us very soon!)
