Isaiah, Part 126 | More Than Extraordinary
2026/09/13
Dr. James Tour centers on Isaiah 53:10 and the guilt offering: Jesus’s death satisfies the prophecy of the suffering servant who bears the guilt of many. He points to Jesus’s nonviolent response at His arrest, including healing the servant whose ear Peter cut off, and to Jesus’s own statement that He laid down His life willingly. Tour argues that because Jesus was the sinless Son of God, not an ordinary man, His sacrifice justifies many and fulfills the guilt offering. He closes with the need for daily worship and morning prayer to sustain that kind of self-giving service. SUPPORT OUR WORK […]

2026/08/23
Jesus’ trial before Pilate is presented as the fulfillment of Isaiah 53, emphasizing Christ’s innocence, suffering, and willingness to endure judgment on behalf of others.

2026/08/09

Isaiah, Part 120 | Willful Rejection
2026/08/01

Isaiah, Part 119 | Preparing a Defense
2026/07/12
Continuing his study of Isaiah chapter 53, Dr. James Tour prepares Christians to respond to common objections against the Bible by examining manuscript evidence, alleged New Testament–Old Testament discrepancies, and Isaiah 7, arguing that older sources such as the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Septuagint support key Christian claims. He then returns to Isaiah 53, emphasizing Jesus as the humble suffering servant whose ordinary appearance and faithful obedience reveal God’s plan of salvation.

[Interview] Are UFOs Actually Demonic? Hugh Ross on UAPs, Aliens & the Spiritual Realm
2026/07/08
Dr. James Tour sits down with astrophysicist Hugh Ross to talk about UFOs, UAPs, alien life, and why some unexplained encounters may point to something spiritual rather than extraterrestrial.

Isaiah, Part 118 | When Jesus Suffered
2026/07/05
