A Christmas Carol 1939 Orson Welles Christmas Radio Play

John 3:1616 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

John 11:25-2625 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; 26 and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

5 On one occasion, while the crowd was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret, 2 and he saw two boats by the lake, but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets. 3 Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people from the boat. 4 And when he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” 5 And Simon answered, “Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets.” 6 And when they had done this, they enclosed a large number of fish, and their nets were breaking. 7 They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. 8 But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, “Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord.” 9 For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish that they had taken, 10 and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men.”[a] 11 And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him.

On Christmas Eve 1939, Barrymore teamed with Orson Welles and his Mercury Theatre for a Campbell Playhouse production on the Columbia Broadcasting System.Welles served as the narrator and the cast included Everett Sloane (Jacob Marley), Frank Readick (Bob Cratchit), Erskine Sanford (Fezziwig) and George Coulouris (Ghost of Christmas Present).

Full audio of the 1947 Christmas classic, The Bishop’s Wife. Dejected by his efforts to raise money to build a cathedral, Bishop Henry Brougham (David Niven) beseeches heaven for guidance, and is visited immediately by Dudley (Cary Grant), who claims to be an angel. Henry is skeptical, then annoyed when Dudley ingratiates himself into the household as his assistant -- and worse, wins the attentions of Henry's long-suffering and kindly wife (Loretta Young). When Dudley continues to intervene in Henry's struggles, the bishop decides to challenge heaven.

Acts 4:1212 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”

Read by Pastor Joseph from the Golden Children’s Bible

On The Kirk Cameron Show (Dec 3, 2025), Kirk publicly said he no longer fully embraces the idea that unbelievers suffer eternal conscious torment in Hell—the classic doctrine that the wicked are punished forever in conscious agony. Instead, he leans toward a view called annihilationism/conditional mortality, where the wicked are ultimately destroyed rather than eternally tormented. This view has caused great controversy and debate. Pastor Joseph shares the truth behind what God the Holy Spirit tells us about Hell in His Holy word.

2 Corinthians 5:6-76 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. 7 For we live by faith, not by sight.

Our brother in Christ and worldwide champion for the faith Kirk Cameron, recently asked the question on his show: Is Hell eternal conscious torment, or does scripture point toward annihilation and complete destruction of the wicked?This is my carefully researched and biblically guided response , with full respect admiration and love for brother Kirk, and as always entirely for the glory of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
