Cisco Victa Interview

Mike and Pat discuss an often forgotten doctrine, namely the ascension of Jesus. Is the work of Jesus finished? Yes, the work of redemption is complete, yet Jesus is now making intercession for us as the ascended Lord and King. “Christ not only died for us, but Christ went to heaven for us!” Christopher Love (1618–1651) Listen to Pat here: https://www.thepactum.org/  Find Pat’s book here: https://www.amazon.com/Ascension-Forgotten-Gospel-Doctrine/dp/097608046X/ref=sr_1_2?crid=23GAKX32EGIWT&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.1u2C4n7TEF0O03fZjsJ3og9hcU12Zyigp2Bz26Y3Padu0stqk45ljDZtuEenquTAhkgAnc7thCuZiuI73Br2KTkIx0VRO053mjRHM90BG_poUVemTOEZ3lW88lxRg0lXuYOLeQrI3-2dO_6y-E8adz-TeHuCLqCHlNlC5IlWFsHtrvjxD27-X6GM9ZlJc3Hpdy8CZ-kwfGnnuFanASXzsWaiNEuoGZM624aZ6zccU40.LHWhJzKPMjNuacjhi8WfZMH8nGgoaUAIwIvQvl5Qnq4&dib_tag=se&keywords=pat%2Babendroth%2Bascension&qid=1794414861&sprefix=pat%2Babendrotyh%2Caps%2C184&sr=8-2&th=1

In this episode of No Compromise Radio, Pastor Mike Abendroth provides listeners with guidance on how to study the Bible carefully. He outlines foundational steps, including beginning with prayer for illumination, making thorough observations of the text, examining context at the immediate, book, and entire-Bible levels, relying on Scripture to interpret Scripture, and paying attention to literary genre and imagery   Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/oLNC0pWz40U  No Compromise Radio “Always biblical, always provocative, always in that order.” Episode 80: “Context And Interpretation" Hosts: Pastor Mike Abendroth (Pastor & Author) Produced/Edited By: Marrio Escobar (Owner of D2L Productions)

Lost sheep need rescuing. They need to be saved. God initiates (and completes) the salvation of lost sheep (sinners)! And the response? JOY!

In this episode of No Compromise Radio, Pastor Mike examines Luke chapter 14 and the parable of the great banquet. He explores the spiritual significance of God's invitation to eternal life, addressing the flimsy excuses people make to reject it and highlighting God's mercy in welcoming the poor, crippled, blind, and lame to His ultimate feast.   Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/dw_gU2icI44  No Compromise Radio “Always biblical, always provocative, always in that order.” Episode 79: “The Great Banquet" Hosts: Pastor Mike Abendroth (Pastor & Author) Produced/Edited By: Marrio Escobar (Owner of D2L Productions) 

Ezekiel 34 should be as well-known as Psalm 23, but it is, sadly, too often neglected. Celebrate with Pastor Mike as he extols the greatest Shepherd ever. What a great chapter!

Luke 15 is not three separate parables, it is just one. Why do some complain about salvation and others rejoice? Lost. Found. Rejoice!

Did you know that God is sovereign even over the bad theology you learned as a kid? Mike talks about what he learned as a liberal Lutheran, specifically, about the Reformation. Hint: Mike shares his Confirmation quiz from 1973. It is hilarious.

Pastor Mike continues his theological series on the doctrine of imputation, focusing on the second and third great imputations: the crediting of believers' sins to Jesus Christ on the cross and the imputation of Christ's active obedience and righteousness to the believer's account. Building upon the concept of federal headship from Romans 5, the hosts explain how Christ perfectly obeyed the law in humanity's place to secure eternal justification and assurance.   Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/uvViJae516U  No Compromise Radio “Always biblical, always provocative, always in that order.” Episode 78: “Three Great Imputations" Hosts: Pastor Mike Abendroth (Pastor & Author) Produced/Edited By: Marrio Escobar (Owner of D2L Productions) 

Jesus was inherently righteous. He obeyed for others, not Himself. Rejoice in the obedience of the perfect Man, for you!
