The Word Behind the Word

The Scariest Passage in the Bible?

They are aimed at people who say, “Lord, Lord.” In this episode of Black, White, & the Red Letters, Ed Grifenhagen and Camy Arnett unpack Matthew 7:21–23—a sobering warning about false prophets, empty religious language, real obedience, and what it means to actually know Jesus. They talk about fruit, motivation, lordship, false assurance, and why saying the right words is not the same as living in a real relationship with Christ. This is not a message meant to drive true believers into fear; it is a call to honest examination, deeper surrender, and abiding in the One who redeems, restores, and makes us new. 🎙️🔥✝️ #BlackWhiteAndTheRedLetters #HardSayingsOfJesus #Matthew7

Bless the Stabber!

In this episode of Black, White, & the Red Letters, Ed Grifenhagen and Camy Arnett take on one of Jesus’ hardest commands from Luke 6:27–31: love those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you, and do good to the people who have done you wrong. They talk honestly about revenge, forgiveness, boundaries, abuse, justice, spiritual maturity, and what it means to refuse to let an enemy set the temperature of your soul. This is not weakness. It is radical discipleship—and it is only possible through the power of the Holy Spirit. 🎙️🔥✝️ #BlackWhiteAndTheRedLetters #HardSayingsOfJesus #LoveYourEnemies

When Really, Really Good Still Isn't Good Enough

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2465898/fan_mail/new] In this episode of Black, White, & the Red Letters, Ed Grifenhagen and Cameron "Cami" Arnett launch into the hard sayings of Jesus with Matthew 5:20: “Unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” That one will smack you in the head. Ed and Cami unpack why Jesus’ words would have shocked His original audience, what Pharisee righteousness looked like, and why external religion can never save anybody. They talk about grace, obedience, the law, the flesh, the Holy Spirit, and the righteousness that only comes through Christ. This is a conversation about the difference between looking righteous and being made righteous — and why Jesus didn’t come to lower the bar, but to fulfill what we never could. 🎙️🔥 #BlackWhiteAndTheRedLetters #HardSayingsOfJesus #Matthew520
