Acts 5:32 says God gives the Holy Ghost "to them that obey him" - A.W. Tozer Sermon Breakdown Pt 5, "The Promised Filling of the Holy Spirit." Matt Hepner and TopLobsta read Tozer on being filled with the Spirit instantly, not gradually, and why we are as full as we want to be. Tozer opens with three passages: Acts 5:32, Luke 11:13 and Galatians 3:2-3. Persons filled with the Spirit always knew they were filled; it was an instant act, not a gradual filling. Along the way we talk about testing the spirits, gold dust and angel feathers, and whether being slain in the Spirit is a learned response. Then Tozer's conditions: the Holy Spirit will expect obedience to the written Word, He will not tolerate the self sins, and you will not run your own life after the Holy Ghost is given control. We close on hunger and thirst, disturbance before the filling, and being happy with God alone. Pt 5 of Tozer's ten messages on the Holy Spirit. Wear the series → https://www.toplobsta.com/prod...

Re-air: originally released June 11, 2026. Original episode: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/why-did-cain-kill-abel-the-epic-of-esau-prometheus-lens-on-straight-bible--72173604 Why did Cain kill Abel in Genesis 4 (KJV)? Doc Brown of Prometheus Lens, author of The Epic of Esau, walks through his take on Cain, the mark of Cain, Esau and the giants of Seir. Straight Bible Interview Sessions, hosted by Matt Hepner, with Doc Brown (Prometheus Lens), recorded live. Doc Brown's hypothesis is that the Cain and Abel story is a highlight reel of years of resentment, and that Abel was killed as a sacrifice to a false god. The earth "opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood" (Genesis 4:11), and Matt and Doc talk about the false gods and signs around the first families, why God still reasoned with Cain, and Abel's "more excellent sacrifice" (Hebrews 11:4). Next come two creations of mankind (Genesis 1:26-28 and Genesis 2), the mark of Cain in rabbinic tradition (Rashi), and Lamech's two wives (Genesis 4:19). Doc explains why he thinks Esau, who "came out red, all over like an hairy garment" (Genesis 25:25), was more than he seems, drawing on Jewish traditions about Nimrod, the garments of Eden and the birthright. Matt brings Deuteronomy 2, where "the Horims also dwelt in Seir beforetime, but the children of Esau succeeded them," and they finish on the Amalekites. Many of these are Doc's interpretations of extra-biblical sources (Rashi, the Midrash, the Book of Jasher, Ginzberg's Legends of the Jews). Be a Berean and check them against Scripture. Questions answered • Why did Cain kill Abel? (12:51) • Were there two creations of mankind in Genesis 1 and 2? (28:01) • What was the mark of Cain? (40:01) • Why was Esau born red and hairy?

Who's really pulling the strings? Matt Hepner of Straight Bible joins Andrew on The 6G Agenda: COVID, politics as pro wrestling, and the church system. A full, raw conversation: Matt's road back to God, why the modern church runs like a franchise, and why the war is on the man. Andrew (The 6G Agenda) asks how many times Matt has read the Bible, then Matt tells how he fell away and came back after his dad's death. They get into COVID as a planned agenda (Andrew calls it the crown virus), politics as WWF puppeteered by the unseen realm, and how the mystery schools counterfeit death and rebirth. Matt takes apart the 501(c)(3) church model and asks why the church needs more money. Then they cover authenticity, "my yoke is easy," Matt's and Andrew's pasts with drugs, Matt's farm, and why Satan goes after the head of the house.

What does "pearls before swine" mean? Matthew 7:3-6 (KJV): the beam in your own eye, then "give not that which is holy unto the dogs." Sermon on the Mount Pt 31: Matt Hepner and TopLobsta ask how Jesus can say don't judge, then tell us to know the dogs and the swine. We pick up the mote and the beam from Pt 30: Isaiah's "woe is me" (Isaiah 6, John 12), Peter's "depart from me, for I am a sinful man" (Luke 5) and the Pharisee and the publican (Luke 18). Is the beam self? Then love as the real issue: John 13, 1 Timothy 1, Colossians 3, "love thinketh no evil" (1 Corinthians 13), Proverbs 23:7 and Philippians 2. At verse 6 we ask how to judge without judging (Matthew 7:7), why Proverbs says don't correct a mocker, and when to shake off the dust (Matthew 10:14, Acts 13, Acts 18). Next week: 2 Peter 2.

Re-air: originally released May 27, 2026. Original episode: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/how-do-you-lead-a-bible-study-at-home-otis-fowler-on-straight-bible--71858447 How do you lead a Bible study at home? Otis Fowler IV explains Tending Eden, his home church discipleship curriculum, written so an ordinary believer can facilitate a study. Straight Bible Interview Sessions, session one, with Matt Hepner and TopLobsta: Otis's testimony, beach baptisms, and how each session of his book works. Otis grew up in church, walked away at 17, and spent years chasing money, partying, steroids and drugs while his sister struggled with addiction. A blank check prayer, Isaiah 6 on a Bible app and Romans 8:16 turned him around, followed by losing nearly everything, five years free of addictions, student ministry, the Asbury Revival and seminary. He talks about why men forgot how to be men, beach outreach with a prayer tent, ocean baptisms with more than 15 local churches, and the ministry called Eden. Then his book, Tending Eden: His Garden, People, and Glory: each session moves from highs and lows through a theme, reflection, foundational scripture, key insights, group discussion, a kingdom perspective and closing prayer points to a commission. Along the way: soul and spirit (Hebrews 4:12), the greatest commandment (Mark 12:30) and Deuteronomy 6. Passages in this episode: Isaiah 6:8 · Romans 8:16 · Matthew 16:24-26 · John 12:24 · Matthew 28:19-20 · Mark 12:30 · Hebrews 4:12 · Ephesians 5:21-26 · Deuteronomy 6:5-9 Questions answered • How did Otis Fowler come to Christ?

I knew it was the truth — but I was still a junkie. Stephen (The Biblical Hitmen) opens up about conversion and the Word, then sits down with Matt Hepner of Straight Bible.

Why did Jesus choose Philip, the apostle Matthew, Mark and Luke say almost nothing about? In John 1:43-46 Jesus goes looking for him and says, "Follow me." The Great Physician, G. Campbell Morgan Sermon Breakdown Pt 6: Matt Hepner and TopLobsta read Morgan's chapter on Philip. Morgan calls Philip a quiet, unimpressive man, "slow in the uptake," who would not argue but simply said "come and see." We follow every scene John gives us: Jesus finding Philip (John 1:43-46), the question about bread for the five thousand that Jesus asked "to prove him" (John 6:5-7), the Greeks who said "Sir, we would see Jesus" (John 12:20-24), and Philip's cry in the upper room, "shew us the Father" (John 14:8-9). Along the way: did you find God or did God find you, Daniel's ten-day test, the pagan general's "for how many do you count me?", and why Jesus needed more than twelve Peters.

What does wood, hay and stubble mean? In 1 Corinthians 3:1-23 (KJV), Paul lays the only foundation, Jesus Christ, and warns that every man's work shall be tried by fire. 1 Corinthians Part 4 (Corinthians for Dummies) with Matt Hepner and the Raven: ministers, God's building, and ye are the temple of God. Matt and the Raven pick up in 1 Corinthians 3 with brethren who are still babes, then Romans 8, Galatians 5 and Paul's arrival in Corinth (Acts 18). Next: what a minister really is, Paul planting and Apollos watering, and labourers together with God. Then the only foundation, Jesus Christ, gold, silver and precious stones versus wood, hay and stubble, and every man's work tried by fire. They close on the temple of God, what it means to defile it, and why the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.

Stacks Farmstead tells how God opened the prison doors: from an abandoned Pittsburgh street kid and five years locked up to an off-grid farm. An Interview Session with Matt Hepner on stealing cars at 14, not caring if he lived or died, forgiving his parents, and fixing what happened generationally. Stacks grew up in Pittsburgh, abandoned and neglected, and turned to the streets at 14, stealing cars for a chop shop. He tells Matt he simply didn't care about life or death: 90 days in county jail for refusing a fine, selling drugs inside, then five years after beating up a deputy sheriff. Praying every night that he didn't want to live, he was told he was going home within 24 to 48 hours, and he says only God can explain it. From there: gutting houses, the electrical union, a house bought from a biker, an off-grid house built from job-site scrap, forgiving his parents, and the Bible habits he's building now.

Does "judge not" mean Christians should never judge? Matthew 7:1-5 (KJV): judge not, that ye be not judged, and the mote and the beam. Sermon on the Mount Pt 30: Matt Hepner and TopLobsta take Jesus' words on judging verse by verse, and where the Bible says we must judge. We start with the Greek word for judge, krino, and read verse 1 alongside verses 6 and 7 (it is written, it is also written, Matthew 4). Then: with what measure ye mete (Luke 6:35-38), the woman taken in adultery (John 8:1-11), you condemn yourself (Romans 2:1-6) and vengeance is mine (Romans 12:19). Next, where Christians must judge: inside the church (1 Corinthians 5, 1 Timothy 6), ourselves before communion (1 Corinthians 11) and righteous judgment (John 7:24). We close on the mote and the beam and Isaiah's "woe is me." Next week picks up at verse 6.

Re-air: originally released April 24, 2026. Original episode: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/what-are-the-beatitudes-matthew-5-1-12-kjv-sermon-on-the-mount--71618237 What are the Beatitudes in Matthew 5:1-12 (KJV)? Jesus saw the multitudes but taught His disciples the character of a kingdom that is not of this world. Sermon on the Mount Pt 1, hosted by Matt Hepner and TopLobsta. The start of the Sermon on the Mount study. Jesus saw the multitudes but taught His disciples, a remnant who would carry it to everyone as salt and light (Matthew 5:13-16). The disciples still asked, "wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?" (Acts 1:6), which Matt compares to Christian nationalism today, but Jesus told Pilate, "My kingdom is not of this world" (John 18:36). The Beatitudes describe the character of that kingdom's citizens, not a checklist, and "blessed" at its core means happy. After reading Matthew 5:1-12 the episode covers the first three: poor in spirit, they that mourn (James 4:4-10), and the meek, who know they are part of a bigger story. The examples are Abram letting Lot choose (Genesis 13:1-9), David sparing Saul (1 Samuel 24:1-7), and Moses, "very meek" (Numbers 12:3), pleading "blot me... out of thy book" (Exodus 32:32). Questions answered • Why did Jesus teach the Sermon on the Mount to His disciples and not the crowd? (0:00) • Is the kingdom of God a political kingdom? (19:30) • What does "blessed" mean in the Beatitudes? (23:19) • What does "poor in spirit" mean? (28:50) • Why are they that mourn blessed? (33:54) • What does meek mean in the Bible?

Does Pentecost still happen today? In Acts 2:1-8 (KJV), A.W. Tozer separates what can never be repeated from what came at Pentecost and stayed. A.W. Tozer Sermon Breakdown Pt 4: Matt Hepner and TopLobsta read Tozer's "The Promised Comforter, the Holy Spirit: Permanency of Pentecost!" Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/nZfbeNpXM04?u... After reading Acts 2:1-8, we get Tozer's line: no repetition of Pentecost, but a perpetuation of it. The rushing mighty wind was a sound (Acts 2:2, John 3:8), the cloven tongues of fire sat on each of them (Acts 2:3), and none of it was ever repeated. What stayed is the Comforter, who makes Jesus Christ real: Peter's sermon (Acts 2:33-36), power from on high (Luke 24:49) and why the Holy Spirit was not named after dynamite. Then Satan's dead crow in God's cornfield, the church called to live above her own ability, and Moses: if you don't go with us, I'm not going (Exodus 33:15).

Zach and Jason sit down with Matt Hepner of Straight Bible for a wide-open Bible and life conversation on Berean Files.They talk heart posture from Luke 6:45, what blasphemy of the Holy Spirit actually means (not just words—what’s in the heart), abiding in Christ from John 14, and why “flawless doctrine” without knowing God looks a lot like Job’s friends and the Pharisees. Matt also shares life as a foster dad adopting medically fragile kids, working hard to provide without making an idol of busyness, and how Romans 8:28 shapes how he attacks life.Find Straight Bible on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Instagram, TikTok, and Substack.

What does carnal mean? In 1 Corinthians 2:9-3:4 (KJV), Paul says the Spirit reveals what eye hath not seen, then calls a gifted church carnal, babes in Christ. 1 Corinthians Part 3 (Corinthians for Dummies) with Matt Hepner and the Raven: the hidden wisdom of God, the mind of Christ, and milk before meat. Matt and the Raven open with Grok removing every god but Jesus Christ, then recap 1 Corinthians 2:1-8 and 1 Timothy 3:16, "great is the mystery of godliness." Verse 9 sends them to Isaiah 64:4 and what it means to wait on God. Then the Spirit searching the deep things of God, words the Holy Ghost teacheth, the natural man, and the mind of Christ. After a viewer question, "Are Christians the new Israel?", chapter 3 turns on a gifted church: milk, not meat, and a definition of carnal that is envying, strife and divisions.

Is the Holy Spirit waiting to do for you all that Jesus would do if He were here on earth? In session three of the A.W. Tozer Classic Sermon Series, Matt Hepner and TopLobsta read and react to Tozer's message "The Presence and Ministry of the Holy Spirit: All That Jesus Would Be!" Working from John 14:15-17 and 14:26, Tozer warns that a church can organize, hire a pastor, form a choir and keep turning the crank without the Holy Spirit, and nobody notices for years. Matt and TopLobsta talk through the modern church model of announcements, five songs and a speech, fellowship that has become a social club with a mild religious flavor, and the "religious toys and trifles" churches now depend on. Then Tozer answers the big question: who is the Holy Spirit? He is not enthusiasm, courage or energy. He is a Person with will, intelligence and love, who can be grieved, quenched and ignored. Spirit is another mode of being that can penetrate matter and personality (1 Corinthians 2:11-12). The hosts dig into Peter's shadow, Paul's handkerchiefs, Nicodemus coming by night, speaking in tongues, and why the Holy Spirit must be Lord or He will not come at all. Tozer walks through the Nicene and Athanasian Creeds, then demands chapter and verse from Scripture: Job 26:13, Job 33:4, 2 Corinthians 3:17 and 2 Corinthians 13:14. The episode closes on the heart of the message: the Holy Spirit is exactly like Jesus, gracious, loving, kind and gentle, and because He loves us, He can be grieved. If you've ever wondered what real Spirit-filled living looks like beyond Sunday hype, this one is for you.
