  • E 312: What would Church look like if Satan was the Pastor?
    2026/06/17
    Welcome back to One Day Closer with Mark and Dave where we are rekindling a spirit of hope and truth into today’s discussion.IF satan WERE A PASTOR: - He'd be friendly, charismatic, likable, and smile a lot.- He'd preach just enough scripture to make you feel good about yourself. - but not enough truth to make people repent. - He'd tell everyone they were basically good, and almost never talked about sin. - He'd never ask the people to consider why they might need God. - Don't offend people - Holiness is legalism - Judgement is hate - Everyone goes to heaven - He'd build big churches that are empty of conviction - He wouldn't have alter calls for salvation - He wouldn't baptize new believers - He'd remove the cross and never talk about sacrifice - He'd have emotional worship songs filled with distractions, light shows, smoke machines, and the best looking people to get our focus off God. - He'd preach motivation instead of transformation. - Self love instead of dying to self - Comfort instead of repentance - Because satan doesn't really need people to hate Jesus, he just needs people to follow a version of Jesus, another gospel that sounds and feels good, but doesn't save them. - The most dangerous lie is not the one that sounds evil, it's the one that sounds almost true. The bible says satan disguises himself as an angel of light and his demons as ministers of righteousness. (2Cor 11:14-15) Jesus said, Not everyone who says to me, "Lord, Lord, will enter the Kingdom." (Mat. 7:21) And Paul says that in the last days people will follow pastors who tickle their ears, meaning, they will follow pastors who tell them what they want to hear. (2Tim 4:3+)- A gospel that does not confront sin, cannot produce repentance, and that's the first key to salvation. Dave opted to reach out to a few of our loyal listeners to solicit their thoughts to the question. Steve from Missouri shared this response. "Unfortunately, Satans Church would be like most services being held right now in our liberal denominations. Bastardizing The Word of God, using parts of The Word to justify anything they choose to do." Listener Paul from our home state submitted this observation. "It would be a world that supports, mutilating young boys because they wanna be girls, mutilating young girls that wanna become boys, having open borders where foreigners can come in and kill citizens, and the foreigner gets congratulated for it, a race is considered superior to the others because it is considered a minority and anything that happens to that race is called racism, even though they’ve got all the benefits of being a minority, killing little babies in the womb is acceptable and applauded, killing old people, and calling it euthanasia is applauded, attacking other people’s character and integrity is your number one weapon because you cannot stand behind anything you support and logically defend it and then Satan would say thank goodness for the Democrat world."Now that’s spot on…and yes it pretty well defines the progressive far left drunk socialist and TDSers on steroids.Ever wonder what the vestibule would look like as you enter the Church of Satan? I’m thinking the walls would have distorted, bloody bodies hanging on the walls and ceiling. No frescos or wonderful painting like you see in some of our ancient cathedrals.What would evangelism look like? Free Fentanyl distribution in schools and playgrounds.I’m guessing the Church of Lucifer would welcome everyone in.Their Sunday school leaders would teach Somalis how to game the system; the Elder Board would supervise from a distance and promote the most corrupt and creative scammers; the youth pastors would abuse the youth and set them up with Pimps making sure the children bring all the money earned to the church; recruitment of the very young would require being trafficked as sex slaves as they surrender their soul to be admitted.Today as Yesterday: Satans playbook Deception, misinformation, lies, half-truths, confusion, chaos….yet engaging, tempting, welcoming, no cost to Join, free admission, free will, laziness is a “gift”Revelation 21:8 ESV But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”I did a Siri search on What Does the Bible Say About Heaven and found an awesome piece from Eternal Perspective Ministries.I’ve left the link to this article in our show notes for anyone interested in this topic. It is rich with Bible links to scriptures that supports as evidence anything and everything you might want to know about Heaven. I encourage you to check it out. The author of the article showcases 51 statements about Heaven with a deep dive into each. Here’s an example:24. Heaven has not remained the same since its creation, but has ...

  • E 311: How do we know that Jesus Christ is the one true faith? Is He real or a myth?
    2026/06/10

    Was Jesus a real person in history? How do we know? We know in the same way that we know any ancient person lived in history. How do we know Aristotle or Alexander the Great was real? How ‘bout King Tut, Julius Ceasar, Socrates, Plato, or Cleopatra? We know these ancient people were real historical figures because we have EVIDENCE.

    We have written records on scrolls and manuscripts, in government records for property, birth, marriage and death records. We have stories and battle records written in stone and pottery and on buildings and religious temples.

    We have eye witness evidence who were there when these people were alive. Do you think that if you walked with a guy who did amazing things for 3 years, that you could write them down?

    We have nonbiblical records, one going back to Josephus in 93 AD. While discussing the period in which the Jews of Judaea were governed by the Roman procurator Pontius Pilate, Josephus included the following account:

    “About this time there lived Jesus, a wise man, if indeed one ought to call him a man. For he was one who performed surprising deeds and was a teacher of such people who accept the truth gladly. He won over many Jews and many of the Greeks. He was the Messiah. And when, upon the accusation of the principal men among us, Pilate had condemned him to a cross, those who had first come to love him did not cease. He appeared to them spending a third day restored to life, for the prophets of God had foretold these things and a thousand other marvels about him. And the tribe of the Christians, so called after him, has still to this day not disappeared.”

    - Jewish Antiquities, 18.3.3 §63 (Based on the translation of Louis H. Feldman.)

    We have archeological evidence in the ruins of ancient civilizations that portray how things were in ancient times. We also have ancient coins depicting kings, artifacts, religious items and important themes in different cultures, including Christian culture during the Roman empire.

    We have artistic evidence in figures and busts of people named in the bible that are carved in stone. We also have sculptures, figurines, and artifacts made from metal, from iron to gold and precious stones. There are tile mosaics and fresco paintings dating back to 200 AD found in Roman catacombs depicting bible stories and Jesus Himself. Some of the oldest paintings in the world are on the walls of ancient Roman catacombs.

    It would take days to discuss in detail all this historical evidence, but trust us, there is ample evidence, and we can confirm, that Jesus was a real man in history. (If you want to dive into the details check out a book called Evidence that Demands a Verdict by Josh McDowell. It’s also available in a free pdf file online.


    2 – Is there a Creator, or has everything come about by chance? Can everything come from nothing? Can Life come from non-life? Can order come out of chaos? If you don’t believe there is a God, then this is what you believe. It all just happened by chance, but this can’t be, because science tells us that everything is tending toward disorder (entropy).

    The evidence of a Creator is creation itself, in the same way that a painting is the evidence that there was a painter, and a building is the evidence that there was a builder.


    3 – Is the world evil? Are people primarily selfish and “looking out for #1?”


    4 – Are you a moral person? Where does your morality come from? How do you know that stealing or murdering people is bad?

  • E 310: Agnostics, Atheists and Area 51
    2026/06/03

    You might have found the title of today’s show a-bit weird or awkward to follow Memorial Day, but if you stick around I think it will all make sense in the end.

    I think this message was inspired by God, so I reached out to Mark and asked “what’s the difference between agnostics and atheists”, while holding back my real question.

    Agnostic Definition:

    : an agnostic quality, state, or attitude:

    : the view that any ultimate reality (such as a deity) is unknown and probably unknowable : a philosophical or religious position characterized by uncertainty about the existence of a god or any gods.

    Atheism Definition:

    : a lack of belief or a strong disbelief in the existence of a god or any gods

    :
    a philosophical or religious position characterized by disbelief in the existence of a god or any gods

    Our Google AI question:

    What's the differences between agnostics and atheists?

    The core difference is that atheism is a matter of belief (not believing a god exists), while agnosticism is a matter of knowledge (believing the existence of a god is currently unknown or inherently unknowable).


    Breaking Down the Concepts

    • Atheist: Someone who does not believe in the existence of a deity or gods. An atheist can either be someone who actively believes no gods exist, or simply someone who lacks a belief in gods.
    • Agnostic: Someone who believes it is impossible to know whether a higher power exists. They conclude that the ultimate truth is currently unknown or cannot be known by humans, and therefore they neither fully believe nor disbelieve.


    It’s sounds as though regardless of what you believe or don’t believe we all share one thing in common….FAITH in what we believe or don’t believe.

    So let’s talk about Faith for a minute. According to the Bible, FAITH IS the substance of things HOPED FOR; it is the evidence of things UNSEEN. Hebrews 11:1

    Key Concepts in the Definition

    • Confidence/Substance: Faith provides a solid foundation for future hopes. It treats promised things as already real.
    • Assurance/Evidence: Faith acts as conviction regarding invisible realities. It trusts in what the physical senses cannot perceive.
    • Let's bake a cake analogy

    This verse introduces Hebrews 11, often called the "Hall of Faith," which lists biblical figures who acted strictly on their trust in God.

    In addition to the Hall of Faith there is more recent proof that God existed and exists today.

    Universes Existence

    What divides good and evil; light and dark; who drew the line between these polar forces?

    What defined or established the many religions pursued around the world?

    As different as they are, why are we all seeking truth and understanding? What drives us all to seek a higher understanding?

    The cooper scrolls

    The Dead Sea Scrolls

    The shroud of Tureen

    The lives martyred for such a belief.


    We are not against either belief or non-belief. We would simply encourage seekers of truth to latch onto something that encourages, inspires and feeds not only your soul but those around you that could benefit from a committed walk of faith, hope and passion.
