Episode 267: How Did Salvation Work Before Christ?
Has God been changing the way He saves people throughout history—or has the message always been the same? Were people under the Law saved by keeping the Law—or has it always been grace through faith? If salvation is by grace through faith today, what exactly saved people before the cross?
In this episode of The Postscript, we tackle an often-misunderstood aspect of dispensational theology, the relationship between the dispensations and the gospel itself. From Eden to the Church age, we trace the thread of redemption and confront the claim that Scripture presents multiple ways of salvation. Instead, we uncover a powerful, unifying truth—every dispensation declares the same saving reality: grace through faith. Join us as we bring clarity to progressive revelation, challenge common objections, and show how the finished work of Christ stands at the center of God’s plan in every age.
We are joined by Kale Horvath, a missionary and church planter in Budapest Hungary—a graduate of LFBI—and author of “Brainwashed: Deconstructing the Battle for our Minds”. We are so glad to have him with us to discuss this critical subject.

Episode 263: What Does the Bible Say About Baptism?
Baptism is one of the most familiar practices in Christianity—and one of the most misunderstood. Is it a symbol, a sacrament, a step of obedience, or the moment salvation happens? In this episode we trace baptism throughout the Bible and through its many different religious expressions in order to find out what’s doctrinally true. Along the way we tackle infant baptism, baptismal regeneration, “baptism by fire,” and why Baptists have historically treated baptism as an ordinance rather than a saving act. If you’ve ever wondered why sincere believers disagree so sharply on something practiced in nearly every church, this conversation will help you see both the history and the doctrine with clarity.
Today we’re joined by Dr. Chris Best, instructor of Missiology at the Living Faith Bible Institute. Dr. Best has spent years helping students think carefully about the church’s mission and how doctrine shapes practice in real ministry contexts. His passion for Scripture and clarity in theological issues make him especially helpful for a discussion like this one. Dr. Best, we’re grateful to have you with us—welcome to the show.

Episode 190: The Age of Accountability According to Scripture
For thousands of years of Christianity and Judaism, there has been an ongoing debate about what it means for a person to be accountable for their sin. In fact, the debate sits at the heart of the historic contention of the Roman Catholics who practice and perform pato baptism (infant baptism) and the Baptists who believe that baptism is reserved for those who have put their faith in Christ - which implies there is a free will and intellectual capacity to understand and receive the terms of the gospel, something which infants and small children cannot do.
What is the age of accountability? That's our question for today. Or another way of asking it may be - When does a person have the discretionary faculty to make a decision concerning Jesus Christ? How do we, particularly as parents, recognize that a child is aware and thus answerable to God for their sin? Is it a sudden realization? Is there a specific age or is it a gradual realization?
To help us better understand what the Bible says about the age of accountability, we have invited Pastor, Dr. Chris Best, Missiology instructor here at the Living Faith BIble Institute to discuss this subject that will benefit anyone looking for biblical answers on the topic.
