Krist Adams
Join Krist Adams as he digs in the Word of God to give you bite-sized snacks to grow your faith. Don't have thirty minutes or an hour to listen to a message? No problem. These short, devotion-style messages will help you draw closer to God throughout your day.
You’ve heard of speaking in tongues. But what if the Church itself tried to bury the truth about it?
This deep-dive uncovers how the early Church Fathers wrestled with spiritual gifts, why miraculous expressions like tongues faded from public view, and how controversial doctrines—like cessationism—were born.
From the explosive days of Pentecost to the suppressed revivals of history… from ancient manuscripts to modern movements… we’re connecting the dots the Church forgot—or ignored.
And no, this isn’t just another surface-level theology talk. This is historical, cultural, and spiritual excavation.
If you've ever asked “Why don’t we see tongues today?” or “Did God stop speaking?” — this is the episode.
Get ready to rethink what you thought you knew.

What if I told you that Jesus’ famous words about not knowing the hour of His return weren’t about divine limitation—but about a powerful, ancient Jewish wedding tradition that unlocks the mystery of the end times?
In this episode, we’ll uncover how first-century Jewish marriage customs explain Jesus’ statement—and reveal why this cultural context is the key to understanding His return. We’ll dive deep into the parallels between Jesus’ ministry and the wedding process, explore the role of the bridegroom, and show how these traditions shape the story of salvation.

Have you ever heard someone say that Jews and Hebrews are totally different people? As if there’s a difference between Jews, Israelites, and Hebrews. Today we’re looking at the real difference between those names and who they represent throughout history, and the dark reason some have issues with using certain terms today.
This episode is about truth, identity, history, and God’s chosen, covenant people.
What if the foundations of our modern world—science, medicine, human rights, education, and even the arts—trace directly back to the teachings of Jesus? In this episode, we dig deep into the hidden history that most textbooks ignore, revealing how Christianity didn’t just change hearts, but actually invented the world as we know it.
Why were first-century Jews actively expecting the Messiah in Jesus' exact generation—and how did they know when to look?
This episode of Between the Lines reveals the divine precision behind Jesus' arrival. Galatians 4:4 says He came "in the fullness of time," but this wasn't random timing—it was prophetic fulfillment centuries in the making.
We’re Covering: • The Daniel 70 Weeks countdown Jews were actively tracking • How Roman roads and Greek language prepared the world for rapid Gospel spread • Why even pagan historians sensed a world-changing moment was coming • The hidden meaning of "Messiah" that first-century people understood differently than we do today
From crumbling pagan religions to messianic fever sweeping through Judaism, every cultural and spiritual element aligned for this singular moment in history.
This isn't coincidence—it's divine orchestration. Jesus didn't arrive randomly. He came exactly on Heaven's schedule.
Perfect for anyone who's wondered: "Why then? Why Jesus? Why that exact moment in history?"
Is Jesus Christ a historical figure who truly rose from the dead, or was He merely a fabricated story created by Roman authorities to control the masses? In this episode, we dive deep into a viral theory that suggest Jesus never really exist—He was just made up by the Roman Empire.
Is it wrong to say “Jesus”? Should we only use “Yeshua”? What does the Bible really say about the name of the Messiah—and why does it matter today? Because some people say that the name of Jesus is a distortion, the incorrect name of the Messiah.
In this episode, we dig deep into:
• The historical and linguistic journey from Yeshua to Jesus
• The claims of the Sacred Name Movement and Hebrew Roots theology
• What “in the name” actually means in Scripture
• Whether God honors prayers in different languages—Jesus, Isa, Yesu, Iēsous
• Why faith in the Person matters more than phonetic accuracy
Whether you’re confused, curious, or just trying to be faithful to Scripture, this episode will give you biblical clarity, historical facts, and spiritual encouragement.

What if the one verse in the Old Testament that is used to deny the Trinity, actually confirms it? We’re digging into the Hebrew Bible to look at the Shema and what it actually means in the wider scope of the Trinity debate.
We're exploring the original language, grammar and trace how Jewish and Christian traditions have interpreted this ancient verse. If you ever wondered if the Old Testament hint at the Trinity, or outright denies it, this might change your perspective entirely.

Do the Hebrew Scriptures hint at the Trinity — or affirm God's indivisible oneness?
In this episode, we take a clear, side-by-side look at how Christians and Jews interpret key Old Testament passages like Genesis 1, Isaiah 9, Daniel 7, and Psalm 110. You’ll see how both traditions approach the same texts but reach very different conclusions about the nature of God.
🟦 This is not a debate. Not a polemic. Just a careful exploration of two theological frameworks — one rooted in the Shema, the other in the New Testament revelation of Christ.
🎧 Whether you're a Christian, Jewish, or simply curious about the Trinity debate, this episode will give you a deeper understanding of:
• How the doctrine of the Trinity is (and isn’t) found in the Old Testament
• Why Jewish tradition reads these passages so differently
• What this conversation reveals about how Scripture is interpreted

🔥 What really happened at Pentecost? This episode dives deep into the biblical, historical, and prophetic roots of Pentecost—long before Acts 2. From Mount Sinai to the Upper Room, we trace the fire, the promise, and the fulfillment of the Holy Spirit in a way most believers have never heard.
This is not about denominations. It’s about the Scriptures, the history, and the truth.

In 70 A.D., the Jewish Temple was destroyed and Jerusalem was left in ruins. Historians record massive death tolls—but not a single Christian is mentioned among the dead.
Why?
Did the early church escape? Jesus warned His followers to flee. And early church history records something fascinating: they listened.
In this episode, we investigate the ancient tradition of the church’s escape to Pella before the siege—using Scripture and history to explore what really happened.
As always, my apologies for any incorrect pronunciations.

What happened to Judaism after the Temple fell in 70 AD—and why did it mean erasing Jesus from their messianic hope? In this episode, we uncover how the destruction of the Second Temple didn’t just end animal sacrifice—it launched a radical transformation of Judaism itself. From the rise of rabbinic leadership to the rejection of the Septuagint and the insertion of prayers meant to curse Jewish Christians, we trace how post-Temple Judaism reshaped its identity to survive—and to shut out Jesus.

Temple destroyed. Sacrifices rejected. Prophetic signs in the Talmud Jesus resurrected. . In this episode, we uncover what really happened after Jesus rose from the dead. From the tearing of the veil to supernatural signs recorded by Jewish priests and historians—including the scarlet thread, the menorah that stopped burning, and voices in the temple—every clue points to one truth: God ended the old covenant, and the final sacrifice had already been made.

The Easter story of Jesus and Barabbas reveals the plan of God when looked at through the lens of Bible prophecy and historic Jewish culture.
There’s a reason the crowd chose Barabbas over Jesus—and it goes way deeper than politics or mob mentality. In this episode, we uncover how one of the most overlooked figures in the Passion story is actually an echo of the ancient Day of Atonement ritual. And not just metaphorically—this is grounded in Jewish law, tradition, and real historical records from the Talmud.
We’re talking about goats possibly marked for the devil, a literal scarlet thread that used to turn white—and the year it mysteriously stopped.
If you've heard about the “scarlet thread” of redemption. but didn’t realize there was a real one in the Temple, you’re in for a shock. This one’s rich with Scripture, Talmudic insight, and mind-blowing connections between the Old Covenant and the Cross.

It's about time you give the devil his ticket. If you don't do it, it won't be done. Jesus Christ has given us the authority to command the devil to leave us alone. He has told us to bind and loose. He's told us to cast out devils. He's told us to use the authority that He gave us. This is your reminder that you need to use your authority and give the devil his ticket. But just because you give him his ticket, that doesn't mean he's going to peacefully go away, but he will go away.
If you have a price...the devil will pay it. In this episode, we talk about the believer's need to be firmly established in their faith. The devil is always looking for ways to make you compromise what you believe, but we don't have to.
Are the promises of God for today? Many think that certain promises aren't for today simply because they aren't experiences them. That's not how we determine truth. We determine truth based on the Word of God. In this episode we look at what the Bible says about the promises of God being available to all believers today.
Have you ever heard someone say, "God won’t give you any more than you can handle?" Was it a Christian? Maybe you've said it. I just saw it the other day. Did you know that the Bible doesn't agree with this at all? Jesus doesn't think this. King David doesn't. The Apostle Paul doesn't.
Today we're going to break down this lie to get some clarity on the character of God, and what we're supposed to do in times of trouble and tragedy.

God is looking for something specific. If we're not careful, we'll start to think that God is looking for the same thing that the world is looking for. He is not.
As Christians, there comes a time when we just need to forget! In this episode, we'll look why we need to learn to loose the password to our past.
The devil is, and has been, trying to tell Christians how to be Christian. He influences people to try and pressure Christians into compromising what they believe. Don't allow him. In this episode, we're looking at how you can stand against the devil when he tries to tell you how to be a Christian.
Many people think that prayer works. However, prayer doesn't work unless you know how prayer works. Then you have to do what the rules of prayer say, to get what the Bible says you'll get.
Is your Pastor lying to you and you don't even know it? What if they were? How would you know? The Bible tells us clearly how to know and a good portion of the church isn't doing what it says.
When unbelievers come to church, they should be uncomfortable. That doesn't man that they are not loved, greeted, and felt welcomed. It has nothing to do with outside feelings and actions. It's an inside, spiritual comfort...or discomfort.
The Bible talks about how to stand when things are falling around you - how to be strong, bold, and courageous.
The only way that the devil can get something int your life - anchored in, is to get you to agree with him. Don't agree with the devil. Agree with God.
Self-Esteem and Self-Confidence is killing people every day. We have been fed a lie by society, the devil, and so many others to believe something about self-confidence, self-esteem, and self value that just isn't true.

Today we are finishing up the long journey that has been "How To Read The Bible The Right Way." Today we are looking at the last two principles of Bible Interpretation:
• The Principle Of Emphasis
• The Principle Of Application
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• What are the benefits and consequences of putting the proper and improper emphasis on a scripture?
• How can we know how much emphasis to put on specific scriptures?
• When should we not look to the scriptures as our final authority?
We're almost to the end of this series and today we're going to be looking at Principle #9 and #10.
• The Principle Of Christ
• The Principle Of Spiritual Power
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• How does the entire Bible point to Jesus?
• Is it appropriate for the Christian to pray to get the victory? Why or why not?
• If the Bible is a supernatural book, God a supernatural God, and supernatural events took place all throughout the Bible, would it be appropriate to expect the supernatural in the world today, in your life? Why or what not? What scriptures back up your response?
Today we are looking at The Principle Of Progressive Revelation, which helps us to realize that God’s purposes become more clear and understandable as time unfolds.
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• Do you think Moses and the Apostle Paul viewed God differently? How so?
• What different revelations do we see throughout scripture?
• How has God revealed Himself to humanity?
Today we are looking at two principles:
• The Principle Of First Mention
• The Principle Of Progressive Revelation
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• Do you think Moses and the Apostle Paul viewed God differently? How so?
• What different revelations do we see throughout scripture?
• How has God revealed Himself to humanity?
Much more interesting than last episode, today we're talking about the The Principle Of Theological Concepts, which is to embrace spiritual concepts in Scripture not mentioned by name.
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• Are there scriptural, spiritual concepts that aren’t specifically mentioned in the Bible? If so, what are a few of them?
• What role does the Holy Spirit play in Bible Interpretation?
• Can an unbeliever fully understand the Bible like a Christian? How do we know?
Today we are talking about a rule that can be kind of boring, but it's an important rule - The Principle Of History And Grammar. The point of this principle is 'to focus on the original meaning of scripture to help determine what it means to us.'
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• Why is it important to know the history and culture of a specific book of the Bible, scripture?
• What are the three types of literary styles found in the Bible?
We're looking at Principle #3 today, which is The Principle Of Literal Meaning. The point of this principle is ''to determine the plain and evident meaning intended by the author.'
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• Can a scripture have more than one meaning to it? How do we know?
• What are at least two types of Word Studies you can use to study the Bible?
• How can Word Studies help clarify difficult or unclear passages?
We're looking at Principle #2 today, which is The Principle Of Comparison. The point of this principle is 'to compare scripture with scripture to arrive at a balanced view of the meaning of scripture.'
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• What does comparing scripture with scripture actually do?
• When comparing scripture, how many scriptures should you use to clarify an unclear passage?
• Using the Principle of Context, what does Paul mean in Philippians 2:12 when he said, “work out your own salvation”?
• Using the Principle of Comparison, what other scriptures support your previous answer?
We continue our look at how to Study the Bible the Right Way by finally getting started on Principle #1 of Bible Interpretation. That is the Principle Of Context. The point of this principle is 'to keep the whole Bible in view on any certain subject.'
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• If the Principle of Context is the most violated principle, would it be wise to pay special close attention to using it when reading the Bible? Why, what are the consequences of using it and violating it?
• What are two important “contexts” to know to clarify what a scripture means?
Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. - 2 Timothy 2:15
We're told to rightly divide the Word of God, but in what ways do we divide it? That's what we're looking at today.
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• What are all of the different ways that the Bible is divided?
• How can we tell if something is from the devil or if it is from God?
• What are the different the two major dispensations, or covenants that divide the Bible? Which one do we live in?
Is The Amplified Bible a reliable translation? What about The Passion translation? We're going to look at that today in this episode of Faith Snack's "How To Read The Bible The Right Way."
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• Is it important to research the Bible translations we use ourselves? Why?
• Do we need to be aware of how a Bible translation was translated? Why?
• What do you think is the minimum of Bible translations you should use to study the Bible?
What Tools Do We Need To Interpret The Bible Properly? Today we're going to look at that question and more.
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• What tools do you have access to that can help you study the Bible?
• Where can you find these tools?
• Should we view all of God’s Word as actually happening or as some fictional story to gain truth out of? How do we know?
Why Do We Need To Know How To Interpret The Bible? That's a great question. In this episode, we're going to start looking at the importance of reading the Bible the right way.
Questions To Ask Yourself:
• Why is it important to know how to read the Bible?
• What happens when we read and study the Bible correctly/incorrectly?
• In your own words, what are the consequences in life of misinterpreting the Bible?
I'd like to announce that starting tomorrow, we will start a series on Bible Interpretation (How to Read/Study The Bible). Even though it's not the most exciting topic, it's a very important one Join us every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for new episodes on learning "How To Read The Bible The Right Way." Each episode will include discussion questions in the show notes as well.
There’s a saying that Jews don’t take Christians seriously because they judge a Rabbi by how their students act. I've heard this a few different places and at first I thought it sounded good. I thought, "I might need to act a little better." But shortly after that, I realized that this is actually a terrible line of thinking. If you follow this train of thought, you're going to miss the more important truth that will change your life.

There are many people that have bought into the lie that I would God want something to happen it’s gonna happen no matter what. That’s not what the Bible says.
Do you ever wonder how many times a day you’re being lied to? Because honestly, it’s probably a lot.
When you pour syrup over a waffle slowly, all the little holes in the waffle don’t fill up immediately. It takes some time for the syrup to go from one of those holes, or cups, to the next one. We’re kinda like that in the Christian life.
Are you able to be corrected? Or do you think you know so much that God would have to use a donkey to correct you?
What is your value? How much are you worth? How much are you worth to your friends, to society? What is your value?
What is your purpose and where do you get that purpose? A lot of people can’t answer that question and even think that they don’t have a purpose.
Do we really need to listen to everybody’s opinion and all the ideas that are out there?
Most people have never heard of Alfred Rosenberg, but he played a huge part in the religious lives of Germans during World War 2.
I saw an article the other day that talked about how Christianity was on the decline in the United States. But why is it?
Did you know that heaven does not give out participation ribbons or trophies for just showing up. That’s not how Heaven works.
My family and I take karate and we are continually doing the same moves over and over and over that we learned when we first began. That’s because we’re trying to create within ourselves a muscle memory.
Who are you influencing and how are you telling them what they should be influenced by?
When I was younger my friends and I did some stupid things. One of the stupid things we did was run from the cops when they weren’t even chasing us. And the Bible tells us why.
What happens if you commit a crime and you get pardoned, but you don’t want to receive the pardon?
There’s a lot of places in the Bible and in songs today that talk about the God of Jacob and the God of Moses and the God of Abraham and the God of Mary. We have to go further than that though
Have you ever been in a situation where everything seems to be right, but you know that it isn’t?
When we’re having issues or problems with somebody at work or school or wherever it may be, who do we go to first for counsel and wisdom?
Psalms 127 talks about laboring in vain. On this Labor Day, I want to take a moment to talk to you about not laboring in vain.
John 10:10 gives us a clear definition of what is good and what is evil - and whom each originated from.
Fish don’t ask birds how to swim and birds don’t ask fish how to fly. So who are you asking for advice?
Let me tell you a story about a gentleman that had 40 to 50 years of experience building roads and the people that went to school that didn’t listen to him.
There are some bridges that need to be burned. Many people will give you the advice that you don’t need to burn your bridges, but that’s not always the case.
In Matthew 8:16, he talks about a bunch of demon possessed people being brought to Jesus at Peter‘s house. In fact, it uses the word “many”. But the last person got exactly the same thing as the first person because God rewarded all of them because they came to Him.
The other day I heard a commercial on the radio about a car dealership telling me that they wanted to get me into the car that I deserved. How do they even know what I deserve?
Do you just get up and go to church or do you do something before you get there? And I’m not talking about putting on some clothes, grabbing a bite to eat, driving there. What do you do with your heart?
We can become so acclimated and accustomed to things, sin, the world, that we don’t realize the threat that those things present.
There are many Christians still setting in the jail cell even though the doors are unlocked and their record has been expunged.
Don’t buy the jewelry store lie that says spending a lot of money one day a year will make up for 364 days of ignoring your significant other. And don’t buy the lie that just going to church will give you a great relationship with God.
Is there such a thing as a radio station pastor? Well, maybe in name, but not according to God and there’s a reason for that.
Do you know what the percentage of rat poison is actually lethal? It’s actually very little. And there’s a good reason for that.
Ones thing that will help us greatly in life is learning that we need to disconnect our emotions from the truth.
Is Jesus all you need? There’s a lot of songs that proclaim Jesus is all you need, just give me Jesus, and things like that. But what does the Bible actually say?
The Bible has a lot to say about the power of your words. What you say is going to determine what your life becomes.
There is a story in Exodus chapter 8 that reminds us that we shouldn’t put off things until tomorrow that can be dealt with today.
There is a strength and ability found when we pray. Without prayer, we cannot live out the Christian life. Without prayer we cannot obey what God has told us to do.
Did you know that there is an umbrella face? When it’s raining in the world, and pouring down on everyone the curse that is upon this world, you can stand peacefully under that umbrella faith and not be concerned about any of those things coming upon you.
Are you the type of person that has the Jesus fish in your car, the cross necklace made out of three nails, the trendiest most latest Christian T-shirt? Let me ask you, why do you have that? Why are you wearing that? Why are you doing those things?
One day we’re going to have to make a decision - is the thing that God is doing in our life actually from God or from something else. Because it is possible that someone is going to challenge that thing that God has done in your life and tell you to deny that is God working and stay with them, or stay with God and leave them behind.
When we get born again we become a new creation in Christ. If you study that out, the Greek gives an understanding that new creation means “an original species that has never before existed.”
The apostle Paul made a mention about a specific person, and said that there was no one else in Paul’s entourage that was like this one person. And the quality that set this person apart is striking, especially for Christians.
When we go to church and we hear a preacher give a message, what is that message - The word of man or the word of God? How we receive it and decide what it is, will determine how it works our life.
How do you see people has a profound effect on them and on yourself. Seeing them through your own eyes it’s going to hinder your life and quite possibly theirs.
Who determines whether God will move? Who determines whether the message that was preached has an impact on the people? The answer may surprise you.
Years ago I used to always say that if it wasn’t for Christ, I wouldn’t be a Christian. Sounds kind of stupid I know, but there’s a good story behind that.
So whose plan do you have? Is it your plan or God’s plan? Or is it a combination of the two? Here’s what it should be.
Sometimes we are so close to God, specially after a missions trip or a revival meeting, or someplace where we’ve gotten along with God for an extended period of time, that when we come back to our normal every day life it seems like we backslid. That’s not the case.
There’s a proper way to question God. If we have the right kind of heart, questioning God is not wrong. Just look at Marie when the angel told her that she was gonna be pregnant by the Holy Spirit. But there’s also a wrong way to question God, and there’s a wrong reason to question God.
When you’re squeezed, what is going to come out of you. It’s whatever is in you. So it’s important that we fill up with the right things.
The Bible talks about certain believers who turned the world upside down. They change the status quo of the religious program that was taking place. But they didn’t do it by just going to church on Sundays and Wednesdays. There is something more to them.
Are you walking by blind faith? If so, you need to change how you’re walking. The Bible doesn’t say anything about blind faith. That’s what the world says.
There’s a reason why there are so many false teachers. And it doesn’t have to do with the teachers. It has to do with the church - with Christians.
Yesterday we asked the question if the right thing is always the right thing all the time? And we saw that not necessarily is it always the right thing. Did they were going to continue to look at the right thing.
Is this the right thing to do? Is it the right time to do it? The timing of things can play an important role in whether or not the right thing is…well, is the right thing.
I’ve been seeing a lot of videos coming across my social media feeds about people attacking other ministers when they don’t agree with them. According to the bible, how are we supposed to respond when we don’t agree with someone?
What are you watching? What are you listening to? Does that determine what happens in your life? According to God’s Word, of course it does. That’s what we’re gonna look at today.
It’s no laughing matter. The truth is that there are a lot of people that just aren’t serious about the things they should be serious about. Let this be a reminder that some things, we need to take serious.
During a hurricane, A meteorologist made a bold statement that speaks to the human condition and the human nature that all of us face. But it gives us a choice of which way will we go.
We would be quick to defend ourselves if someone called us a liar. But when we take the time to actually search ourselves and see if what they’re saying is true. Today I encourage you to look at your life, do an examination and see if there’s any area in your life that you need to work on.
As we go about our daily life, we have no clue what is going on inside of people that we pass. But God does.
What is God looking for? He is looking up and down the earth, searching for somebody that has this one quality, and each and every person on this planet can have it, but very few do.
Someone can teach you the right words to use to pray, to sit down or stand up, to close your eyes or leave them open , but today I’m going to share the most important thing to know to pray effectively and get your prayers answered.
When we read the Word of God how do we see ourselves? Do we see ourselves as the multitude, the disciples, or do we see ourselves as Jesus? That may sound strange but that could be exactly what Jesus was trying to get us to do.
The Parable of the Sower that Jesus talked about has a lot of stuff in it. But today we’re going to look at one thing that is found in Mark 4:15. Don’t give Satan an opportunity to steal the Word from you.
Looking at Mark 4:33-34. When we hear Jesus speak, is it like hearing parables and wondering what in the world is going on or do we hear the Word explain to us? Well that is determined by our closeness to the Master.
Happy Independence Day. How are you celebrating the Fourth of July? Well let me share a story and give you a recommendation of one more thing that you can do to celebrate the birth of our nation.
For Christian, it may sound stupid to ask if they’re following Jesus. But if you actually look at the Gospels, the whole Bible, it’s not really that stupid of a question. There’s actually a distinction of how spiritually mature you’ve become and how close you are to the Master.
If you look around at the state of our nation or the world, you got to see that things aren’t going that great. We’ve had some highs. And we definitely have some lows. But when in the past 50 years, thousand years, has God‘s Word changed? When has His commandment and authority that He delegated to us changed?

As Christians, there is a proper place for our relationships.

In this episode, Krist Adams takes a quick look at what happens when God's people pray and when God's people don't pray. It's important to never stop believing, never stop praying, and never stop praising God.
