Episode 9 is now up at this link entitled “Defining The Issues 4-15-09 10:06

Basically, this is a ‘primer’ episode that is trying to reveal what is coming ahead in future episodes. One of the points that is being emphasized here is

There is too much stuff that can not be discussed due to time constraints of a ten minute video

Is this the ‘loophole’ that is going to be used to not talk about the main issues in public?

There is talk about Todd’s statement from the last episode where Todd stated that he didn’t have a doctrine on marriage and divorce and how through these videos, Todd would eventually have a doctrine on this subject matter. This flows into the subject of ‘does God hate divorce’ and ‘keeping our vows’.

One thing that was interesting about this video was the point where Joyner compared Todd to Jacob in reference to Jacob’s conniving nature. I saw some light finally being shined down for Joyner hit the bullseye on that analysis. What came next was a quazi-form of Charismatic replacement theology’ where the comparison of Todd to Bible characters who did far worse deeds and they turned out great so therefore, this meant that Todd is automatically going to turn out great.

Because this episode was dealing more with generalities, it will be interesting to see what takes place in the future episodes.
