Restitutio is a Christian theology podcast designed to get you thinking about biblical theology, church history, and apologetics in an effort to recover the original Christian faith of Jesus and the apostles apart from all of the later traditions that settled on it like so much sediment, obscuring and mutating primitive Christianity into dogma and ritual. Pastor Sean Finnegan, the host of Restitutio, holds to a Berean approach to truth: that everyone should have an open mind, but check everything against the bible to see how it measures up. If you are looking for biblical unitarian resources, information about the kingdom of God, or teachings about conditional immortality, Restitutio is the Christian podcast for you!

616. Herod Antipas vs. Simon Peter (Sean Finnegan, Victor Gluckin)
Quick question: “If you lived in the Roman Empire who would you want to be?” Most of us answering this question would immediately think, “the emperor” or “a wealthy person of importance.” Herod Antipas was just such a person. A son of Herod the Great and ruler of Galilee and Perea, Antipas was an influential and powerful person in the time of Christ. He was part of the tiny percentage of people with wealth and access to the life of the Roman elite. He was a competent and clever person, but he was also the victim of circumstances. By contrast Simon Peter was a lowly fisherman from an unremarkable place, that is, until Jesus called him to be part of his inner circle. In this imaginative narrative double sermon you’ll see the contrast in perspectives between Herod Antipas (played by yours truly) and Simon Peter (played by Victor Gluckin). I hope you will enjoy our reconstruction and see the value of living for God’s glory instead of your own.
This dual sermon is from the Royal Family Reunion (now called Kingdom Fest), delivered on August 27, 2011 at Living Hope Community Church in Latham, NY.
