Back To The Basics: What Is The Bible?

What Is The Rapture?

In this powerful episode of the 3:16 UNLEASHED podcast, we tackle a question that has stirred curiosity, hope, and debate for generations: "What Is The Rapture?" Even though the word "Rapture" is not found in the bible, the event itself is clearly described as one of the most glorious moments in human history; when believers will be caught up in the twinkling of an eye to meet Jesus face-to-face. As the world grows darker with violence, uncertainty, and chaos, this conversation brings clarity and urgency to the times we're living in. You'll also hear a personal testimony from Bro. Dave that highlights the reality that life is fragile, because we're not promised tomorrow, or even our next breath . Whether through the return of Christ or the unexpected events of life, eternity is closer than we think. This episode will challenge you to be ready, stay watchful, and understand the biblical truth about the moment all Christians have been waiting for.

What Is Hell?

What is Hell - really? In this sobering and necessary episode of the 3:16 UNLEASHED Podcast, we tackle one of the most avoided yet critical truths in Scripture: the reality of Hell. Joined by special guest Brother Dave Thompson, we break down what the Bible actually says - not opinions, not traditions, but truth. Scripture describes Hell (often referred to as "Hades") as a place of weeping and gnashing of teeth - a place of real torment, real separation, and real consequence. This is not symbolic language to be ignored. This is a warning to be taken seriously. We also confront a vital truth: Hell was never God's desire for humanity. As seen throughout Scripture, God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Yet at the final judgment, every individual will stand alone before God - without excuse, without blame to place on anyone else. This conversation is not meant to entertain - it is meant to awaken If Hell is real...then the Gospel is urgent.

What Is Salvation?

In an era of shifting truths and spiritual uncertainty, the unchanging power of the Gospel remains the only firm foundation. In this episode of 3:16 Unleashed, Bro. Tim and Rev. Rex are joined by Bro. Dave Thompson for a raw and direct account of God’s sovereign grace and the reality of a life transformed by Jesus Christ. This is not a message of cultural convenience, but a bold witness to the biblical truth of salvation. Bro. Thompson details his journey from spiritual emptiness to a personal encounter with the Living God—proving that no soul is beyond the reach of the Cross. We examine the necessity of repentance, the weight of the Great Commission, and the call for every believer to stand as a light in a post-truth world.

Who Is Jesus?

Who is Jesus? This is not an ordinary question—it is the foundation of Christianity and the dividing line of eternity. In this Back to the Basics episode, Who Is Jesus?, we examine the Bible’s clear answer: Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, the promised Messiah foretold in Scripture (Luke 24:27), the Savior of the world, and the only way to God (John 14:6). This episode is ideal for new believers, seekers, and anyone desiring a deeper biblical foundation. Grounded in Scripture, we explore Jesus’ “only begotten” identity (monogenēs—one of a kind), His humility in incarnation, the power of the cross, and His authority over all things. The same question Jesus asked in Matthew 16:15 still demands an answer today: “Who do YOU say that I am?”
