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.

SHOULD WE PREACH THE GOSPEL TO CHRISTIANS?

Are we wasting our time if we preach the gospel to Christians? Could that time be better spent going out into the streets to preach to non believers? If you answer "yes" then most churches wouldn't meet on Sundays since their congregations are already saved! No, we should preach the good news to believers and Paul tells us why in 1 Corintthians 15:1-9, where he warns us against false or "nominal" faith and emphasises the need for constant spiritual renewal through the Word and the Spirit. In doing so he shows how the gospel’s essence is grounded on three historical facts—the virgin birth, the crucufixion and the resurrection, arguing that these historical facts are authenticated by fulfilled Old Testament prophecy and the eyewitness testimony of the New Testament.

We explore Rev.1:9–20, contrasting the earthly perspective of churches in tribulation with the heavenly view of churches as golden lampstands and their leaders as stars in Christ’s right hand. Highlighting the church’s responsibility to shine out the gospel, we see the value Christ places on local congregations, and the need to honor and support leaders while relying on Christ to sustain and purify his church.

This episode explores John 15 on the night before Jesus' crucifixion, explaining Jesus as the true vine and teaching what it means for disciples to abide in him.
From five clear viewpoints — Authentic believers, Branches of Jesus, Incisions in pruning, Dependence on Christ, and Enduring spiritual rewards — the message shows how trials and "pruning" unfruitful things from our lives produce lasting, Christlike fruit and deep, sustained joy.

At first sight this passage is pure narrative and contains few lessons for today, but looking closer we discover how the LORD was in total control as he led Paul safely through storm and shipwreck to his desired destination, Caesar's court in Rome. In the same way, the same God watches over his people today as we face the storms and hazards of life in today's uncertain world.

1 Corinthians 13:8–13 enlarges upon Paul’s claim that biblical love never fails since it is the divine love shed abroad in a believer's heart by the Holy Spirit. He explains why some spiritual gifts (like prophecies, tongues, and special knowledge) became progressively redundant as Scripture was completed while others (like evangelists, pastors and teachers) remain until Christ returns. But only one gift, love, also remains eternally, which is why it is the greatest thing in time and eternity.
