God has planned for us to live by His grace. We hope that the following studies contribute to that end.

God's titles as deity demonstrate His sovereignty.

God is Sovereign. However, we must understand our English Bible's use of "LORD" to distinguish lordship.

Christ is our Lord. He has given us a command to love. Jim Blackhall teaches this study.

How does Christ's command to love affect our understanding of Christ's Lordship? Jim Blackhall teaches this study.

God is sovereign. What does it mean for God to be Lord? Are there differences between His being Lord in the Old Testament from the New Testament? Jim Blackhall teaches this study.

We witness defections within our churches. What role does the world system play in this issue? Ben Orth shares the Word.

These problem passages can negatively affect our understanding of salvation.

These misunderstood Scriptures can affect our understanding of salvation and eternal security.

What does the Roman Catholic church teach on the matters of Biblical authority and the means of salvation? This is not intended to be an anti-catholic study, but to answer a question I've received lately.

What does the Son's Lordship mean for believers?

Is the heavenly people versus earthly people a legitimate distinction?

Distinction: were people in Christ before Pentecost?

We need to pay attention to distinctions as much as points of similarity. Are the covenants different or all versions of one covenant?

Respect the differences. When we interpret Scripture, it is not our job to find or make things similar, but to also recognize the distinctions.

How does the New Testament use the Old Testament?

What does the Son's lordship mean for our lives?

Misapplied or misrepresented Scriptures might appear to suggest that a believer can lose their salvation.

We continue looking at misunderstood texts that are applied by some to teach that we can lose our salvation.

There are misunderstood Scriptures that some use to suggest that we can lose our salvation.

The Son is Lord. He exercises His lordship over our lives and the use of our spiritual gifts.

The Son is Lord. The sphere of His Lordship has changed.

The Son is King. Is He acting as King today?

More statements using the word "fulfill" demonstrate that we should interpret Scripture in a normal/literal manner.

Were the prophecies in Daniel fulfilled literally or figuratively? Were the prophecies about Christ fulfilled literally or allegorically?

Satan tempts us to disrupt the normal Christian life. He is a liar. How is lying related to his temptations.

Believers are to live by grace. God has also prepared good works for believers to do. How do these two work together?

God's faithfulness to His covenants to Israel impact our understanding of His faithfulness to our salvation.

How do we read statements that seem to contradict what we have observed as normal in our world?

The truth about the Pre-Tribulational Rapture is intended to encourage believers.

The Rapture involves resurrection and people being changed.

What does it mean for the Son to be priest?

How do the New Testament writers and speakers interpret the Old Testament?

How did Jesus and others interpret the Old Testament?

What is the Biblical foundation of the Pre-Tribulational Rapture of the Church?

Does the title Son of God mean He is God progeny, or does it means something so much bigger?

Arius taught that the Son was created. The council of Nicea countered by stating that the Son is eternally generated. What does Scripture say?

We read Scripture in a normal simplistic manner.

Do you know these Scriptural principles? Genuine works will be rewarded by God. In the epistles, exhortations to live godly are based on what God has done and plans to do in the Christian's life and not based on fear of losing salvation.

Some Scriptures state that God gave the Law. Other Scriptures state that believers today are not under Law.

The Bible contains statements and commands that appear to be contradictory.

Paul closes this letter with greetings from believers and to believers. We learn some amazing things from these greetings.

What kind of conduct and talk should characterize believers when we are with unbelievers?

Is our salvation safe? This study contrasts a man-based salvation to a God-based salvation.

What is the relationship between seriousness and zeal? Both are qualities that are appropriate in certain settings.

Paul needed to proclaim the mystery of the Christ. What was this mystery?

What does it mean to be saved? God has made us a kingdom of priests.

What does it mean to be saved? We have a new title, and we are God's children.

Ben ties off this study with a look at Paul before Roman officials.
