Edgar Andrews’ Onefootinglory Podcast
Old men are often said to have ”one foot in the grave” but those whose trust is wholly in Jesus Christ for time and eternity are not looking forward to the grave but to glory, for the Bible says that to be ”absent from the body” is to be ”present with the Lord”. At the age of 87, therefore, I have chosen this name for my new podcast which will feature videos of talks, comments and lectures about the Bible and science and also Bible expositions.
Listen on:

Genuine Christians have the unique ability to be poor and rich at the same time. We are speaking, of course, about spiritual entities, not material ones. We insert the word "genuine" because in every age there are nominal believers who have no personal knowledge of God. This podcast demonstrates that God sent the prophet Isaiah to expose the spiritual bankruptcy of ancient Israel, call them to repentance, and show them what it means to be a true believer (Isa 66:1-4). This passage speaks powerfully to us today when nominal Christianity abounds in our churches and points the way back to genuine faith.

We revisit the account of Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, humbly seated on a donkey, and show how it was predicted in detail by old testament prophecy, proving that the Rabbi Jesus of Nazareth was indeed the long promised Messiah. In this sermon we discover seven such predictions that not only demonstrate the reliability of old testament prophecy but also glorify Jesus as the prophet, priest, and king who came into the world to seek and save lost sinners. The message highlights that this historic event lead toward the cross. the resurrection, how Jesus’ humble kingship ultimately triumphs over sin and death, and eternal life for all who trust in Christ.

We must "be always abounding in the work of the Lord" (1 Cor. 15:58) but how exactly do we do that? Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 15–16. Explaining the seamless transition between these two chapters, Paul urges believers to translate the hope of resurrection into steadfast, doctrinally faithful action, using the collection for the Judean churches (to which the Corinthians had promised but failed to contribute) as a concrete example of obedient, proportionate giving. The sermon emphasises that the recipients of salvation by grace are obliged to to serve Christ as Lord.

Though under house arrest for two years (Acts 28:22–31), Paul proclaims Christ and the kingdom “with all boldness and without hindrance.” Luke deliberately leaves Acts open‑ended (for example, there is no reference to Paul's final trial and execution) to show that the mission to the ends of the earth is 'unfinished business' and we today must imitate the Apostle in his unavoidable commitment to preach the gospel to all. This commitment is demonstrated in our passage as Paul meets with Jewish leaders in Rome, systematically proves that Jesus is the Christ from the Law and the Prophets, and explains that because many Jews reject the message, God’s salvation is now going to the Gentiles.
