The Dance Of Life Podcast with Tudor Alexander

Molinism is probably something you haven’t heard of, but its philosophy is quite popular in the discussion on predestination. It seems like the perfect balance between freewill and God’s sovereignty, yet today you will learn it is wrong, unbiblical and subversive — just like the Jesuit that it was named after.* 00:00 - Introduction * 05:35 - What is Monism?* 20:52 - Natural Knowledge, Free Knowledge & Middle Knowledge * 26:01 - Problem #1 - Jesuit Origins* 37:28 - Problem #2 - Makes Creation Impersonal* 49:32 - Problem #3 - God's Decree Depends on His Creations* 58:07 - Problem #4 - Molinism Doesn't Create Free Will* 1:00:59 - Problem #5 - People Who Can't Be Saved * 1:09:32 - Problem #6 - Counterfactuals Do Not Exist* 1:17:51 - Problem #7 - Conditional Election* 1:22:24 - Problem #8 - The Problem of Evil* 1:28:59 - Problem #9 - Middle Knowledge Doesn't Exist* 1:37:00 - CHALLENGE: David & Saul* 1:45:50 - Final Thoughts This is a public episode.

With the climax of events in the middle east, we are seeing bible prophecy come to life in real time — but not as most Christians believe or expect. Dispensationalism is collapsing as Zionism’s controlled demolition reveals the darkest parts of humanity — and with it the Protestant Reformation has one more nail in its coffin. Meanwhile geopolitical, economic and social instability around the world are building the precedent for a moral solution, and a world savior. The events unfolding are biblical in their reverberations, because they are the final crusade by the Beast to topple all of its foes in one move. What comes in the aftermath will be what the bible warned of, and the question is: will you be ready? * 00:00 - Montage* 1:04:10 - Introduction* 1:29:57 - Stories* 3:59:24 - Iran War: Deception & Fakery* 4:53:55 - Iran War: Dialectics* 5:25:36 - Iran War: Synthesis* 6:48:28 - The Transition into the NWO This is a public episode.

Today many influencers are inciting people to use the term “Christ is King” as a rallying cry against the obvious evils of Zionism, Communism, Islam and Liberalism — yet the spirit and agenda behind this seemingly biblical statement is actually part of the antichrist NWO agenda.

Nearly 2,000 years ago Jesus walked the Earth and spoke things that no one had ever spoken before or since. Among those famous words are His parables, the Sermon on the Mount and Matthew 24, the warnings on the signs of the end of the age.

Throughout the bible we see an important pattern when it comes to suffering, that God is sovereign over all things that happen.

With the recent stir caused by Kirk Cameron and his change of perspective on the afterlife, it’s important to review what the bible says on this topic. If we want to be biblical and sound in our understanding, we must go with what scripture alone says and not inject our man-made traditions and ideas -- regardless of how old -- into the reading, but rather read scripture plainly and also from the lens of those who wrote them long ago. So, what do the scriptures say? Today we will look at them very carefully. This is a public episode.

In the beginning God created man in His image, male and female He created them. This is part of the dance of life, but mankind also quickly fell and now struggles and toils with the Genesis curse.
