Edgar Andrews’ Onefootinglory Podcast

In this episode we study Acts 17 and Paul’s approach to evangelism, first finding common ground and engaging in reasoned conversation and then preaching Christ with special emphasis on the resurrection. The resurrection is presented as a powerful, fourfold declaration: it proclaims the deity of Christ, the accountability of all people to God, the justification (purity) of believers now, and the future security of believers in eternity.

Speaking to intelligent but idolatrous Athenian philosophers, Paul starts by seeking common ground by engaging their curiosity about religion, evidenced by their altar to the "unknown god". Having used this to show how he approached evangelising people with no knowledge of Christ, he presents three core beliefs without which there can be no salvation. 1)  A triune God created all things by Christ (theism); 2) God continues to uphold and control the world in Christ (in contrast to deism and idolatry); and 3) God will judge the world through Christ. Modern evangelism should return to these foundational truths if it is to succeed.

This episode explores what Jesus meant by "the new covenant" when he instituted the Lord’s Supper, tracing its roots to Jeremiah 31 and contrasting it with the Sinai covenant of works. It explains how the new covenant writes God’s law on believers’ hearts, fulfills the promise to Abraham, and leads beyond forgiveness to membership in the eternal city described in Hebrews. Listeners are guided through key biblical passages (Jeremiah, Romans, Galatians, Deuteronomy, and Hebrews) to show why the new covenant is a gift of grace, not a contract of works.

This episode explores the biblical meaning of faith through Hebrews 10–11 and other scriptures, contrasting it with prosperity teaching and the idea of ‘blind’ faith. The speaker argues that biblical faith is rational, being supported by reason, eyewitness testimony, and divine revelation.
We see that faith is a supernatural gift that enables endurance, produces visible acts of obedience, and grows through Scripture, prayer, and community, giving believers hope, purpose, and confidence in Jesus' promises and return.
