This is my first encounter with this channel...I was just searching for Tim Mackie and came across. Tim had referred to his Bible teachers, so I was excited by hearing one of his teachers. I think the Bible Project is Priceless 🎉
I have treasured the Bible Project for so many years now. They are fantastic. Listening to their podcast fed me so much knowledge and understanding of the Word. Showed me how many ways there are to look at scripture. Thank you for shining even more light on their ministry! 🎉❤
The Bible Project has helped me hang to my faith and life and resparked my awe and wonder for God and for the scriptures. I couldn't agree more with your words about it. It's God's gift to our generation in so many ways, and is desperately necessary for our time. Yet I know so many who aren't aware of this awesome resource (and aren't curious) and others who distrust it without the integrity to look deeper.
Bible Project makes it so accessible to GO and demonstrate and proclaim the good news. So thankful for beauty, wisdom, and the distilled truth of the Scriptures. DEEP THANKS FOR THIS INTERVIEW = sub
Whatever Tim is talking I'm trying to listen! Thank you so much for this fabulous interview with him. For the gentleman who did the thank you video at the end I want a whole heartedly reiterate that I agree 100% with everything he said. Tim and the Bible project have changed my life and I'm learning more everyday thanks to the Father, the Son.and, the Holy Spirit. ❤
The exact same Words I got about our world and other people now. We must love each other no matter what. Thank you Dear brother Tim. Much Love to you and your Family. We are all one big Family of Gods children
Observing God at work… that is exactly what we all are seeing here. Being real and authentic and interacting with God without the fluff, without the formality.
Tim and John remind me of the cartoon characters Mr. Peabody and Sherman. Love these guys. They have the ability to draw you in. Tim’s miniseries of teachings are awesome and provide awesome food to consume. Thankyou guys. I too watch all their clips.
I really enjoy getting to hear someone (the host) thank another person (Tim) for their impact on them. So much in the Christian community people are kind of ignored in service of not glorifying someone above God. But just because God is the cause behind people doesn't mean we shouldnt also thank them for their choice to do what God has desired them to do.
I too have been moved by God and the Bible Project. I grew up going to a LDS church. My experience as a teenager with some of the adult people in church ruined religion for me. Now at 53 years old I still don’t go to the church, but I have found my place with Jesus. Without the BibleProject, I never would’ve been able to read the Bible and understand. I would’ve opened the book got lost and put it down. I’m very thankful. i feel like I am moving towards finding a church community but have encountered so many fake religious people in churches that are missing the point of a church community. Thank you for the message in the podcast. I just found you by accident. I’ll be listening to more. ❤
I’m so glad Tim said Rouge 1 , I was holding my breath because I think it is the best one. As a retired 911 Bronx firefighter, I cried at the end because it brought me back to all my feelings of fighting to the end even if you know you might not survive to see what the ends work and sacrifices might lead. It was a powerful ending.
Thank you for putting together this interview. I love any background stories I can get regarding BP. Besides the short videos, I have immersed myself and completed 10 of the 12 theological classrooms. I am working my way now through Jacob. Eight of those are taught by Tim and what comes to mind when I listen to the students and Tim’s exchanges are “I wish I could be there too.” I see the importance of starting a community that is BibleProject centered. I can’t wait!
"...then he goes on to be the ideal inhabitant of the Kingdom..." Not that I didn't know it, but that whole section first with Tim Mackie, then NT Wright, and back to Tim - that ideal inhabitant phrase really sank in, more than "I just need to be more like Jesus." He' is what the Kingdom will be like. Tim Mackie is such a poetic, intelligent, humble communicator. I also found NT Wright from an interview he did on Naked Bible Podcast.
I love the podcast interactions as I love the questions and answers and interaction. I love when I hear you both say you learned something or that’s a new way to look or view a topic. I watch or listen to so many as I go about my day and sometimes on repeat. I hope all this content remains available.
I was so hoping Tim would say Rogue One!!! I have been listening to his teachings since he first published Exploring My Strange Bible podcast. It has really helped me stay focused on the Bible in a world that competes for my attention.
I've been listening to My Strange Bible podcast over the last couple of months and now I'm really looking forward to getting to the study on Matthew. Tim, if I could express how much your work has meant to me and my relationship with God, Jesus and Bible, I would...but I can't...because it's just been SO much! And I'm not nearly done yet!
In Tim's summary of his view on what our attitude should be regarding the lost, specifically where he talks about Jesus' attitude toward those who killed Him (1:00:00-ish), I'm reminded of what Jesus said from the cross, "Forgive them for they know not what they do." That verse not only displays the love God yet has for those who remain in the ignorance and darkness of this world in which we live-that of which we also were once a part of-but it also helps to shape our kingdom perspective toward those whom yet remain in that darkness, desperately needing deliverance from it. We're not here to point fingers anywhere else, but to the path which leads us to righteousness... Jesus.
You and I have a similar testimony, dude. Got into Bible college on fire come out, still believing, but unsure about the hermetics of it all. For me it started with Dallas Willard as a way to open my mind to a better way of learning from Jesus, but we ended up in the same place, in awe and on fire once again
The Spirit of All Truth... FROM THE WORD X(HIS FAITHFUL PROMISE) word MADE FLESH... WE CAN HEAR... as his own... is THE MOST EXACT TEACHER and resource ever made available to us by God. 😮😊
I’ve read many scholarly works in my 40+ years pursuing the evidence for the resurrection for my own assurance… In that pursuit and a message by a local pastor, I discovered Michael Heiser and The Unseen Realm… The idea of making the current knowledge of biblical scholar world available and understandable to the average pew sitter is met with great resistance because it runs afoul of certain sacred cows that are not to be tampered with… It also stems from a pastorate that views the congregation as I sufficiently intelligent to grasp the content… In my case, I was unceremoniously admonished by the powers that be to go sit on the curb, shut up and color…
Can someone ask Tim why he doesn't go on more interviews with non-christian stuff??? He talks about language translation/relating the Word to people so it's on their level... Tim youd do wonders doing that!
Wonderful interview. I think you ask perceptive questions that show how you have prepared for the interview brilliantly, but you don't allow for flow within the interview, as in you don't allow yourself to ask follow up questions or response questions, you just let Tim answer and then immediately move on to your next prepared question. Its a bit jarring. Just food for thought for further growth.
Mackie and Wright's take on the beatitudes seems clunky to me. These, I agree, are not instructions on "how to get blessed." After all, nobody should aspire to be weeping, suffering injustice, or persecuted. But rather than ethereal "principles", I see the Beatitudes as Jesus giving a very practical heads-up to his followers, who will very soon find themselves in the meat grinder of hostility from the Jewish establishment. "Take courage friends; it's about to get bad out there for you guys, but don't misread that to mean you're outside God's blessing. The antagonists aren't going to inherit the kingdom - you are." (As per Matt 21:43). The SoM seems thoroughly eschatologial - Jesus is preparing his followers for the upheaval of the transition about to take place between the covenants. This explains why Jesus lands the Beatitudes with explicit descriptions of persecution, followed immediately by clear images of the very near judgment/salvation of Israel: salt (Mal 3:2 - 3) and light (Matt 13:43, drawing on Dan 12:3 and Isaiah 59-60). Jesus then warns them not to jettison the law prematurely in their eagerness for the new covenant. The law would remain standing in its entirety until God dismantled heaven and earth - which wouldn't be long. The new creation was, even then, breaking in, and would be fully upon them in short order (Heb 8:13, 9:8, 2 Peter 3, John 4:21 - 23, Heb 10:1, Col 2:17). The Sermon itself ends with a chilling story about the desolation of a temporary house that would fall in a flood (hmm I wonder what house that could be?) and the establishment of the true house built on the rock that rides through the upheaval and out the other side (what house might that be?). Wright sees clearly the timeframes associated with the Olivet Discourse. I think the same timeframes apply here. Not that there is an end to the ethical implications, but there is a far more earthy, real-time, straightforward meaning to Jesus' words here than Wright and Mackie seem to acknowledge. And that is unlike both of them.

You never answered my challenge concerning how you read Matthew 25:41. I made this challenge at your RUclips video entitled, "The Heaven of Hell Kicked Out of Earth." I also reiterate that Mackie espouses heretical teachings: I write these things in service to all who may read the Comments to this video; I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't delete them. As a bonus, I've included lyrics to the song, "Ring Them Bells," by Bob Dylan. Tell us, if you will, whether or not your choice of a name for your RUclips channel had anything to do with this song; even if you choose not to reply to this particular question of mine, it will remain that you yourself know why you chose the name you chose. Feeding the poor and offering hurricane relief are wonderful: I salute you for that, and I'm sure the people to whom you've given aid are very, very thankful--and I mean this sincerely. I don't hold anything against you, but you must understand that no amount of such charitable work makes it right to endorse false teaching: We are to do as you are doing for the poor AND teach faithfully all that The Lord Jesus Christ taught, and that's not happening with Mackie or with your offerings. I'm sorry to have to say it, but you do realize that as a son of The Most High by the virtue of The Lord Jesus Christ's love for me, I am constrained to contend for the faith, just as we read in the book of Jude. Christianity is not a cafeteria-style affair: "3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. (Matthew 4:3-4, KJV) @michaellippard6107 9 days ago This is a childishly fatuous argument that Mackie makes. It contradicts the teachings of The Lord Jesus Christ concerning hell: For this reason, it is heresy.

It wasn’t hell✔🔔❤ Reply @michaellippard6107 7 days ago @ringthembells143 How do you read Matthew 25:41? Ring Them Bells Written by: Bob Dylan Ring them bells, ye heathen From the city that dreams Ring them bells from the sanctuaries ’Cross the valleys and streams For they’re deep and they’re wide And the world’s on its side And time is running backwards And so is the bride Ring them bells St. Peter Where the four winds blow Ring them bells with an iron hand So the people will know Oh it’s rush hour now On the wheel and the plow And the sun is going down Upon the sacred cow Ring them bells Sweet Martha For the poor man’s son Ring them bells so the world will know That God is one Oh the shepherd is asleep Where the willows weep And the mountains are filled With lost sheep Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf Ring them bells for all of us who are left Ring them bells for the chosen few Who will judge the many when the game is through Ring them bells, for the time that flies For the child that cries When innocence dies Ring them bells St. Catherine From the top of the room Ring them from the fortress For the lilies that bloom Oh the lines are long And the fighting is strong And they’re breaking down the distance Between right and wrong
Tim’s response to your criticisms can be found in a way at the 59th minute mark. It seems to me that by your comments you were trying to pick a fight. You called his teaching heresy, which I do not accept. I have been a Christian for 50 years and before the BP it felt like I’ve been watching a 3-D movie with regular glasses. Then came along the BibleProject and I no longer just gloss over passages I don’t understand. I have taken 10 of the classrooms which are 30 sessions each, which has given me understanding of the scriptures that no person or organization held a candle to so far. The BibleProject has done more to unite Christians theologically than anything ever created.

‘What makes the Bible project so successful across the globe?’
Because it is only ever about the Bible.
History, facts and context. The cultural context shared is mind blowing. Peeling back a confusing curtain making scripture accessible and oftentimes revelatory.
There’s no agenda. No wondering in to opinions. They’ve removed the common roadblocks that can cause division and simply stuck to the basics. (Which will only take a lifetime to study.) It is beyond refreshing to hear teaching that believes the Bible can stand on its own.
And praise God for them or I’d have given up on this ancient text.
Actually, Tim Mackie teaches heresy. He teaches that the Book of Genesis is "poetry" and he literally gets angry if you call Genesis "history."

@@dianeellison3090 I think I’m gonna trust Jesus first. But as far as trusting another human I will take Tim Mackie’s word that has been tried testing and proven within the scholarly world across the globe compared to you Diane who I barely know
You never answered my challenge concerning how you read Matthew 25:41. I made this challenge at your RUclips video entitled, "The Heaven of Hell Kicked Out of Earth." I also reiterate that Mackie espouses heretical teachings: I write these things in service to all who may read the Comments to this video; I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't delete them. As a bonus, I've included lyrics to the song, "Ring Them Bells," by Bob Dylan. Tell us, if you will, whether or not your choice of a name for your RUclips channel had anything to do with this song; even if you choose not to reply to this particular question of mine, it will remain that you yourself know why you chose the name you chose. Feeding the poor and offering hurricane relief are wonderful: I salute you for that, and I'm sure the people to whom you've given aid are very, very thankful--and I mean this sincerely. I don't hold anything against you, but you must understand that no amount of such charitable work makes it right to endorse false teaching: We are to do as you are doing for the poor AND teach faithfully all that The Lord Jesus Christ taught, and that's not happening with Mackie or with your offerings. I'm sorry to have to say it, but you do realize that as a son of The Most High by the virtue of The Lord Jesus Christ's love for me, I am constrained to contend for the faith, just as we read in the book of Jude. Christianity is not a cafeteria-style affair:
"3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. (Matthew 4:3-4, KJV)

This is a childishly fatuous argument that Mackie makes. It contradicts the teachings of The Lord Jesus Christ concerning hell: For this reason, it is heresy.

@ringthembells143 How do you read Matthew 25:41?
Ring Them Bells
Written by: Bob Dylan
Ring them bells, ye heathen
From the city that dreams
Ring them bells from the sanctuaries
’Cross the valleys and streams
For they’re deep and they’re wide
And the world’s on its side
And time is running backwards
And so is the bride
Ring them bells St. Peter
Where the four winds blow
Ring them bells with an iron hand
So the people will know
Oh it’s rush hour now
On the wheel and the plow
And the sun is going down
Upon the sacred cow
Ring them bells Sweet Martha
For the poor man’s son
Ring them bells so the world will know
That God is one
Oh the shepherd is asleep
Where the willows weep
And the mountains are filled
With lost sheep
Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf
Ring them bells for all of us who are left
Ring them bells for the chosen few
Who will judge the many when the game is through
Ring them bells, for the time that flies
For the child that cries
When innocence dies
Ring them bells St. Catherine
From the top of the room
Ring them from the fortress
For the lilies that bloom
Oh the lines are long
And the fighting is strong
And they’re breaking down the distance
Between right and wrong
WOAH!!!!!!!!!!
Tim’s response to your criticisms can be found in a way at the 59th minute mark.
It seems to me that by your comments you were trying to pick a fight. You called his teaching heresy, which I do not accept.
I have been a Christian for 50 years and before the BP it felt like I’ve been watching a 3-D movie with regular glasses. Then came along the BibleProject and I no longer just gloss over passages I don’t understand.
I have taken 10 of the classrooms which are 30 sessions each, which has given me understanding of the scriptures that no person or organization held a candle to so far.
The BibleProject has done more to unite Christians theologically than anything ever created.
