  • The Trinitarian Concept of God is Not Biblical: Why 1 John 5:7 is Not an Authentic Bible Verse

    The Trinitarian Concept of God is Not Biblical: Why 1 John 5:7 is Not an Authentic Bible Verse
    Feb 13 2026
    Host Martin Tanner explains that the concept of the "Trinity" is not found in the Bible. The idea that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are of one undivided substance is not found anywhere in the Bible. The only verse in the Bible which seems to support the idea of the Trinity is 1 John 5:7. But as Martin explains, 1 John 5:7 is not a genuine Bible verse. A scribe mistakenly first added it in the early Fourth Century. Hear the details in this episode.

  • A Brief Overview of Book of Abraham Facts and Fallacies

    A Brief Overview of Book of Abraham Facts and Fallacies
    Jan 23 2026
    Critics use a "red hearing" (untrue fact) to try to discredit the Book of Abraham. Critics say we have the papyri from which the Book of Abraham text was translated, which is factually incorrect. Egyptologists have translated it and it is not the Book of Abraham. The true facts are that we do have 11 papri fragments recovered from the New York Metropolican Museum of Art, which Egyptologists have translated. But the rest or the papyrus scrolls, according to contemporary descriptions, about 100 feet, on at least two long, were burned up in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. The scrolls which were burned up, according to contemporary witnesses in Nauvoo, contained the Book of Abraham.

Martin goes on to discuss the Contemporary English Bible (CEV), New Revised Standard Verson, updated edition (NRSVue), English Standard Version (ESV), Good News Bible (GN), New Jerusalem Bible (HJB), The Living Bible (TLB), the currently popular version The Message (MSG), New American Standard Bible (NASB), the also popular New Internation Version (NIV) which is a very slanted Protestant translation, New King James Version (NKJV), the often overlooked Names of God Bible (NOG) which Martin gives a high recommendation, and others.
