What are the eternal consequences of our fallenness?  What is the miserable estate in which we live?  What does it mean to be separated from our creator?  What is hell and does it truly exist?  Does the love of God negate the idea of hell?  I hell necessary?

On this episode of The Podechesis Podcast, the guys take on two of the questions from John Wesley’s Revision of the Westminster Shorter Catechism, Q19- What is the misery of that estate into which man fell; and Q20-Did God leave all mankind to perish in the estate of sin and misery?  They will deal with topics like the eternal consequences of human fallenness, the losing communion with God, and whether or not the idea of hell is outdated.  They will also discuss why John Wesley completely redacted question and answer 20.

Along the way, Brett will forget his name, Allen will try to interject “hell” in non-theological ways as much as possible, and Jim will wonder if Allen and Brett are trying to make his podcast life a living h…, well, you know.

Heaven, Hell, & Purgatory

What the difference between the sinful nature and sins committed?  In what way is our nature corrupted by sin?  What original righteousness?  Is it possible to not sin?  What is the guilt of sin and how is it passed down?  

In this episode of The Podechesis Podcast, Jim, Brett, and Allen continue their discussion on sin by looking at questions 17, Into what estate did the fall bring mankind? and 18, Wherein consists the sinfulness of that estate into which man fell? of John Wesley’s Revision of the Westminster Shorter Catechism.  They talk about why correct thinking of our fallen nature matters, how modern zombie tropes can be the perfect analogy for our sinful nature, and why the doctrine of Christian perfection is so important.

Along the way, Allen makes a big comeback, Jim makes cheesy preacher jokes, and Brett decides its time to catch up on newer movies and TV shows.
