Texas Friends: Jesus Saving the World
In this episode we discuss passages in Scripture that speak of Jesus dying for the world. Jesus said He died for His sheep. So how are we to understand the verses that speak of Jesus dying for and saving the world?
My guests have had experience talking with others about this subject. In this episode they talk about some of these conversations, and about what it was like for them personally to come to understand the comforting truth that Jesus saves every person for whom He died.

Verses: How Christ's Sheep Hear His Voice (John 10:27)
How do Christ's sheep hear His voice? Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice." He did not say that they merely hear about Him. He said they actually hear Him. They hear His voice. How do they hear Him? Many today claim that Christ speaks to them in dreams or visions. Is that what the Bible says? In this podcast we look to Scripture to find out how Christ's sheep today hear His voice.

Key Points: Faith Completely a Gift of God
It is commonly taught that faith in Christ is a condition that a person must first fulfill in order to be saved. Scripture, however, teaches that faith is not a condition, but entirely a gift of God. This truth is crucial for an understanding of what it means that we are saved by grace alone.

Texas Friends: Unconditional Salvation
In this episode we discuss how God saves His people unconditionally. Many teach that those who are saved in Christ are saved because they have fulfilled one or more conditions. Scripture, however, teaches that God's people are saved solely by His grace. My guests have had experience talking with others who have been taught that salvation is conditional. They also talk about what it was like for them personally to come to understand the comforting truth of salvation by grace alone.

Texas Friends: Sola Scriptura (Scripture Alone)
In this episode we discuss Sola Scriptura or Scripture alone, which is the teaching that Scripture is the only infallible authority and that Scripture is sufficient. We talk about a number of ways in which many today are falsely claiming to receive additional revelations from God. My guests have all had experience talking to those who are claiming this, and one of my guests grew up in an environment in which many spoke of these additional revelations from God. As always, we consider this doctrine from the viewpoint of how comforting the truth is. It is a great comfort for God's people to know for sure what God has said to us, and to be assured that we have the complete infallibly inspired word of God in Holy Scripture.

Strong Comfort (Intro to the Podcast)
Welcome to Strong Comfort, a podcast inspired by Hebrews 6:18, which says that God desires that His people might have strong comfort.
My name is Pastor James Laning, and in this podcast I talk with some of my friends about how the teachings of our Lord are very comforting for us who believe in Him.
During this podcast we will be pointing out how what many are teaching today differs from the comforting teachings of Scripture that God’s people throughout history have confessed. We will be considering also how the comforting gospel of Jesus Christ is very practical, with many applications to our own life and our personal relationships with others.
Join us. And let us explore together what our Lord says, and see how His promises give us hope and strength, as He guides us in our journey on the path of life.
