Pod King Bible Study

Send us a text In this episode, we open a discussion concerning the biblical understanding of what true worship is. We begin by examining the possibility of worshipping ignorantly as Paul told the people at Mars Hill. We go through Acts 17 and look at several aspects of what was wrong with their worship, and the worship God desires. By the end, we turn from the people at Athens, and then we begin to apply these things to ourselves. If you are ready for a challenge, or if you desire to test your worship by the Bible, come study God's Word with us today… 

Send us a textIn this episode, we discuss the topic of music. This is another episode by the request of one of our faithful listeners, and it is so needed! We were thrilled for the chance to cover this topic, for music is one of the things that are dear to both of us. One of us is a songwriter, both of us are musicians, and we have seen the positive and negative effects music has in church. Hang with us as we examine many different angles of what music should and shouldn't be in a church service. We talk about the importance of it in worship, and much more. Tune in today, study with us, and then let us know what you thought of this episode at dkministries1977@yahoo.com! 

Send us a text In this episode, we talk about the biblical role of what God desires for a man to be. This episode was by request, but this is something that we feel everyone should be interested in. This is not just an episode for men, there is much for women and children interspersed all throughout. We talk over a few scriptures, defining the role of a man, and then dig into some problem areas, that are common to man. Pardon the pun…  We are confident this should be a strength to many people, so why don't you come study God's Word with us?

Send us a textIn this episode, we are in celebration mode again! Our 31st Q&A is here, and my oh my, what a great selection of questions we have for you this month. Bro Donnie and Bro Sam have a tough job ahead of them today. These queries were a little more difficult than usual, but that doesn't stop us from having a good time with them. Do you love these episodes as well as we do? If so, send us an email at dkministries1977@yahoo.com and let us know… Meanwhile, come and let's study God's Word together today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we take a little time each on 3 major doctrines. We begin with restitution, explaining what it is and what it means, and giving some examples. Then we skim over sanctification since we have already done several episodes dealing with this powerful topic. Then we delve into the glorification of the saints to round this episode out. We will uncover some pretty amazing things today, so we feel this study has the potential to change lives. Just take the time and study God's Word with us today…

Send us a textIn this episode, we tackle 2 doctrines that are at the very foundation of the Christian experience. We discuss Redemption, what it is, how it happens, and the way we should understand it from the OT point of view into the NT. We spend a good deal of time on this and the topic of Substitution. This vital doctrine has come under attack in recent years from critics, mockers, and believe it or not, scholars. Is Substitution a biblical doctrine? Was there a substitution provided for us? We believe Jesus is our Substitute, so we explain the doctrine, why we should believe it, and why we need to fight for it. Take some time to come and study God's Word with us today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we look at one of the characteristics of God that we can possess, and it is one that we all need to possess. The problem with this is that very few people desire to seek for it… so, what are we talking about? Patience… it is a godly virtue, but it is one thing we bypass in our prayer times. We do this because the Bible tells us that it is tribulation that brings patience, and if that is so, we're not interested. We try to uncover the blessing of patience, while presenting a strong argument for why we need it so much today. We feel this episode will challenge you, but it will be a blessing to you as well… if you have the patience to listen to it all. Take the time and come study God's Word with us today! 

Send us a textIn this episode, we drill down on one of the most foundational doctrines the church possesses. The justification of those who believe on Christ is a must to gain entrance into Heaven. This is the act of man being made right with God, through what Jesus accomplished on the cross. Through justifying the believer, our sins have been taken away from us, and God has imputed the righteousness of Christ to us. Justification is a legal term, and we dig into what that means, plus many more things that you don't want to miss. We invite you to come study God's Word with us today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we go over 3 more terms that describe our relationship with God. We have been delivered… delivered from sin by the Lord. We have been rescued from Satan… rescued by Jesus. We have been saved… saved from an eternity in hell by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We discuss these 3 terms, we talk about their differing aspects, and what it all means to us. We end up touching on several key things we feel that everyone needs to know and understand about salvation. Drop what you're doing, and come study God's Word with us!

Send us a textIn this episode, we try to give answers to some of the toughest questions we have received in a while! Yeah, you guessed it… we are offering you another Q&A, and this one is quite spectacular! This is our 30th such episode, and we are delighted to have been able to take in so many wonderful queries. We feel certain that you will get a kick out of a couple of our questions, but you will like all of them. Why don't you go ahead and take the time to study God's Word with us today?

Send us a textIn this episode, we will examine a few terms that speak of our relationship with God. The first is ‘Born Again', the second is that of Conversion, and the last one is Regeneration. All 3 terms describe some aspect of our status with God. We will discuss what each term means, how they are different, and why they are all so vital to our understanding. Could someone be born again and not know it? Can you convert to Christianity and there not be a change in the person? What does it mean to be regenerated? We answer all of these questions and more, so come along and study God's Word with us today!

Send us a text In this episode, we discuss what Atonement is, and how we should understand it. To get a good grasp of what Atonement is, we must go back into the Old Testament and study some of the priestly rituals. In doing that, we end up going over the Day of Atonement, the Scapegoat, our sins departing from East to West, and more. We touch on several familiar scripture passages such as Ps. 103, Is. 53, and Heb. 10 to just name a few. By viewing these things, we can clearly see what Jesus accomplished when He made Atonement for us. This powerful episode will not be complete without you coming along with us, so come study the Word of God with us today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we offer our answer to the question a lawyer presented Jesus with one day long ago. He asked Jesus: Who is my neighbor? In response, Jesus told the lawyer and all of us who a neighbor is, but more importantly, how we are to be a neighbor. Our Lord then told the story of the man on the Jericho Road, and He gave the people of that day a lot to think about. We believe this wasn't just for those people that day though, and because of this, we feel a need for all of us to be neighbors. This episode is challenging, convicting, and uplifting all at the same time… come study God's Word with us today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we discuss two of the most important things that happen at salvation. We are reconciled to God, which means that our relationship with Him has been restored. Man who lives in sin is out of relationship with His Creator. Jesus reconciles us to God by His death on the cross. Because of this, we are also Adopted into the family of God. We had been the children of the devil, but now we have had such a change come into our life, we even changed families! This episode is a must for everyone, so come on… study the Word of God with us today! 

Send us a textIn this episode, we cover a few more of the steps that are necessary in the Process of Salvation. We talk about the need of confession, and there are more than one thing that we should confess. We discuss conversion, and several things that goes along with this powerful step. We work our way into Romans 10 as we finally made our way to the very positive steps of faith and belief in God! We have seen what is known as the negative parts of salvation, such as contrition, conviction, and repentance. Now we are on the positive parts, faith, belief, and conversion. We feel these things are integral to salvation, so we want to encourage you to come and study God's Word with us today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we talk about a subject many deal with anymore. We talk about repentance, and we cover it from beginning unto the end. Without repentance, no one can be saved. Without a repentant heart, you can't obtain forgiveness. Do you see how important repentance is? It is literally a heaven or hell issue, so we need to get it right! The first message of John the Baptist was one of repentance, and it is the same thing for Jesus too. We highly encourage you to study God's Word with us today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we are back at it with another one of our fan favorites… our 29th Q&A! Boy, do we have some great things in store for you today! This episode is totally dedicated to kid's questions that we have received of late, and they are superb! Not only are we excited about this layout, but we also have some help with us in the studio again… Bro. Sam Hewitt! You will get to hear 2 different perspectives on these questions, and we are certain you will be blessed by them.Come on and study God's Word with us today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we look into 2 vital steps within the process of salvation: contrition and conviction. Without these 2 components in our lives, we would not be able to be saved. We talk about what each of these things are, what the Bible says about them, and we define them biblically as well. At the end, we give a little of our reasoning for why we are taking this approach in the study of salvation. This episode is a necessity for all who are interested in the way that God seeks man. Come and study God's Word with us today!

Send us a textIn this episode, we talk about the Healing power of God. As Christians, we believe in the Divine healing of our Savior, and we break down several things about this and discuss them. We look at some of the beliefs people have about healing, and then we look into the scriptures. We end up exposing many of the errors that go with this topic. Before we close, we give some personal testimonies of healing that have happened in our lives and our families. We think this has the potential to be a faith building episode, so come on and let's study God's Word together.

Send us a text In this episode, we breach a topic that many of us have never given much thought to. We are studying the process of salvation, and since we talked about sinners last time, we felt the need to include atheists. We dug down into Ephesians 2 and my, did it get deep! We looked at an angle that you might not be familiar with, but with the persuasive power of the apostle Paul, we feel confident that you will see why we came to our final conclusion. We think this was one of the best discussions we have had in a while, and we fully believe you will be blessed by it. Come and study with us today in God's Word.

Send us a textIn this episode, we continue our study from last concerning the Process of Salvation. For man to get saved, he must first recognize that he is lost. The question was asked: When does a man become a sinner? We had a really good discussion while whittling down several options to land on the right answer. We also debated whether people can go to Heaven without the blood being applied, whether children go to Heaven when they die, and several other intriguing ideas. This is a must for everyone to listen to… so why don't you come study God's Word with us today?

Send us a textIn this episode, we begin studying the process of salvation. We start off by trying to nail down the very first thing that happens in this process. You might be surprised where we end up! Then we begin walking through the scriptures, looking to define some biblical terms we are all familiar with. We cover a lot of ground, get our minds blown a time or two, and thoroughly enjoy our discussion today. We feel confident that you will too, so come study God's Word with us today!

These challenging questions will surely be among some of the finest we have ever received, so sit back and enjoy!This is one of our best Q&A's yet!

Send us a textIn this study, we talk about Paul's beautiful wording of speech with grace, and seasoned with salt. We spend some time on this, and then we move through the remainder of the book as Paul works to a close. He mentions a lot of people, while speaking of some specific things in between. This is the Grand Finale of this wonderful book study, and it is just as amazing as the rest of the book has been. In our Q&A segment, we were asked a really good question: Why did God have Elijah prophesy, and then sent a drought for 3.5 years? Was this so the drought would cause the people to seek the Lord?As we move into our next study, which will be a topical study, we will not be having a question at the end of our episodes, but when we return to the book studies, the questions will as well.You certainly don't want to miss this stirring episode! 

Send us a textIn this study, we look into one of the least popular subjects in a world that pampers themselves… Fasting. Avoiding food isn't the most pleasurable thing to do, but it does have many benefits. We discuss how and why we should fast, along with the proper way to carry out a biblical fast. We go over many scriptures, a few personal experiences, and much, more in this powerful episode. If you have ever had a question about fasting, this episode is for you… so come on and give it a listen.

Send us a textIn this study, we finish chapter 3 by talking about our reward and inheritance we will receive. We open chapter 4 with Paul giving instruction to Masters, and then he admonishes us all to pray and give thanks. He mentions the mystery of Christ again, and then he tells us we need to walk in wisdom, redeeming the time. We discuss what this means for us today, and we come to some very convicting conclusions! In our Q&A segment, we were asked this question: Which brother do you think was the most spiritual, Moses or Aaron? I hear Moses proclaimed as the better of the 2 most of the time, but wasn't Aaron the priest, and Moses was basically the commander of the Army?We believe this study will encourage you and challenge you. 

Send us a textIn this study, we cover a topic that has gone out of style long ago with people, but never with God. We look at what Paul taught concerning submission, and this includes wives, husbands, children, and even servants. There are so many things that we can learn and use to grow in grace with here, it is amazing. We finish up with the convicting portion where Paul tells us that whatever we do, we should do it heartily as unto the Lord. Do you do everything in this manner? in our Q&A segment, we were asked a good question: Recently, I heard a message about how the believers were called Christians first at Antioch, and I have been wondering: did those people call them that because they were just like Jesus, or because they were doing what He did?If you're looking for a blessing, we encourage you to listen to this study today! 

Send us a textIn this study, we will be covering what it means to put on the bond of perfection, which is charity. We study through what it means for the peace of God to rule in our hearts, and at our need of being thankful. Paul told us to let the word of Christ to dwell in us, and then he spoke of how we need to admonish one another. We are to do this in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, so we discuss what this might include. We finish up in v. 17 where Paul said that whatever we do, we need to do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus. In our Q&A segment, we give an answer to a most interesting question: How does the dead bury the dead?This powerful study presents us with much good that we need to do, so you don't want to miss this, come study God's Word with us today! 

Send us a textIn this show, we bring to you our 27th Q&A! With each passing month, our listeners send us some of the most intriguing queries to look into. At times, we are hard pressed in bringing you definite answers to some of your questions. This only proves as evidence as to why you have reached out to us in the first place. There are some things that are just simply hard to figure out. We thoroughly enjoy digging into things deeply, so keep sending them to us. Our Q&A episodes are among our fan's top favorites, and after today's show, you'll see exactly why.Come along with us friends and let's study God's Word today.

Send us a textToday, we dig into how Paul declared that in Christ, there is neither Greek nor Jew, bond nor free. Since we have put off so many things by coming to Christ, Paul encourages us to put on better things. He gives us wonderful instruction for how to live, and how we are to treat one another. Despite putting on mercy, kindness, and many other things, he entreats us to put on charity above all these things.In our Q&A segment, we were asked the following question: While listening to Mary did you Know, I began thinking about the Lord and Mary… when she got to Heaven, did she have a glad reunion with her Son, or a reunion with her Savior… or did she do both?This is a glorious episode, one with which we are proud to offer to our listeners… give it a listen and let us know what you think! 

Send us a textToday, we look into the description Paul gives of sinners living to their flesh, serving themselves. Because mankind lives this way, the wrath of God is imminent to come upon them. He points out that all of us lived that way at one time, but we have now put off many things. We had to put off the old man to put these things off. The only way we could put off the old man, is by putting on the Lord Jesus Christ. We have been renewed in the image of the One who created us! In our Q&A segment, we try to answer this question: Why do you reckon in Jam. 2, he links being swift to hear, and being slow to speak, with wrath and anger?This is a moving study on the power of God that changes us when we come to Jesus… listen to it today! 

Send us a textToday, we are thrilled to have a special guest, Bro Sam Hewitt! He has been a longtime listener of the show, a good friend, and he is also a minister of the Gospel. We are delighted for the opportunity to sit down and have a discussion on a topic that is dear to both of us. We talk about faithfulness, and it isn't a one-way street… we cover numerous ways to understand this powerful subject. This episode is a must, so please listen to it today!We believe you will be blessed, challenged, convicted, and encouraged all at the same time.

Send us a textToday, we embark on a journey through Colossians 3, and we look at several things. We are to set our affections on things above, not on things here on this earth. We are dead to the world, and our lives are hidden with Christ. Christ is our life, and we will appear with Him in glory. Because of all these things, we are to mortify the members of our bodies, which means to put to death. There are quite a few things Paul said we must put to death, and we take a little time discussing all of them. In our Q&A segment, we were asked this question: How did the Jews end up killing Jesus? It seems like they were so meticulous in keeping the Law.If you want a blessing today, go ahead and listen to this study! 

Send us a textToday, we discuss several interesting things, and among them was a huge paradox. Paul says that we are dead with Christ, but then he goes on to say that we are risen with Christ. We go over several of the difficult sayings within these verses, and we try to bring a little clarity to certain issues. The apostle told us to seek those things which are above, and we feel that this is still good for all of us today. In our Q&A segment, we were asked the question: When I got saved a few years ago, most of my friends that I had quit coming around me and calling me… this has bothered me a lot, so did I do something wrong?I have some advice for you... seek those things that are above… and listen to this episode, we feel it will be a blessing to you. 

Send us a textToday, we conduct our 26th Q&A, and once again, it is a chock full of wonderful questions. This time though, all of the questions pertain to Christmas, and things surrounding the Christmas narrative. Our listeners came through for us again, bringing us really good questions, but also some very challenging ones as well. We believe this episode will be one that should answer several questions we all have wondered about before. If you want another gift this year that won't get shoved in a drawer or thrown in the closet, this is for you!Quit your stalling, and listen to this powerful show today!

Send us a textToday, we discuss what Paul meant when he told us not to allow anyone to judge us in meat, drink, holy day, new moon, or even the sabbath. He said these things are only a shadow of what is to come, but he pointed us to Christ through these shadows. He then condemned the teachings of the false leaders who had arisen, and once again pointed us to Jesus, who he called our Head. In our Q&A segment, we were asked the question: Could you comment on 1Sam. 3:3? I have heard some say that Eli had allowed the fire to go out that was to always be burning, because the next verse and the context says from evening to morning… so, which is it? We talk about all of this and more, so come on and give this study a listen now!  

Send us a textToday, we tap into some wonderful things that we feel should bless your soul! We talk about how Jesus blotted out all of the ordinances that were against us, and how He nailed them to His cross. He also spoiled principalities and powers, and He did this in such a way, He made a show of them openly. Paul said Jesus triumphed in all of this, so we had a good discussion concerning what this means for us today. In our Q&A segment, we were asked this question: A co-worker of mine told me that the Bible was not written in order, and she says this is proof the Bible is not a truly God-given book… I am very disturbed about this, because I looked into this, and it is not in order… why is this?We are very confident this study will be a help to you, so go ahead and listen to it today! 

Send us a textToday, we travel back in time to visit a figure from the past. We delve into the story of Mary, the woman who gave birth to God's only begotten Son. We talk about her life, her struggles, and what she must have gone through. According to scripture, we know that her path was not the easiest, but we know she had the Lord with her, pardon my pun. We feel this episode is one we all can glean something from, but it is a little more geared towards women, more so than usual.We pray it is a blessing to you as you listen in. 

Send us a textToday, we dive off into some deep studies, word meanings, and cross references of some of the best the Bible has to offer! We look at what it means for the fulness of the Godhead to dwell in Jesus bodily, how we are complete in Him, and the fact that He is the Head of all principality and power. We talk about what biblical circumcision means, and then we go into a good discussion regarding baptism. Friends, we once were dead in our sin, and now through Christ, we are dead to sin, and forgiven by Him. In our Q&A segment, we were asked the question: I have a friend who refuses to believe the Bible because he says it was written by men, so what can I say to him to help him see the truth?We invite you to be blessed by this episode, so come on and give it a listen today! 

Send us a textToday, we look at a very sobering passage, and we camp out here for the whole study. Paul told the Colossian church to beware, which we should see as a strong warning, so what was he warning them of? He feared that some man might spoil them through philosophy and vain deceit. He pointed to the root cause as the tradition of men, and after the rudiments of the world. Paul went as far as to say that these things could pull them away from Christ. In our Q&A segment, we respond to this question: I have been in church my whole life, and I have seen a trend in recent years of many churches that are doing away with testimony services… how do you feel about this? We truly feel this episode is a must, so please listen to it today! 

Send us a textToday, we traverse through some really amazing things. Paul was concerned that the Colossian believers might be beguiled because he was absent in the flesh. He told them that he was with them in spirit, and he was thrilled for their steadfast faith. He encouraged them to continue walking in Christ, being rooted, built up in Him, and established in the faith. He wanted them to abound with thanksgiving as well. In our Q&A segment, we were asked a thought-provoking question: A few weeks ago, we turned our clocks back to the original time, and this makes we wonder: Is it a sin for man to change the time, when God created it?We have a very lively discussion about these things, and several more, but don't waste any more time, go ahead and listen in! 

Send us a textToday, we mark another milestone on our Q&A's, by offering you our 25th such episode. We are one fourth of the way to 100 now! We took in some really good questions, and giving answers to them were a little challenging. Questions include: where was God when He created Heaven, the blind man in John 9, fitness centers, jesting, how to understand usury, and more. We feel very confident that this list of questions will delight you, while we pray that the answers will bless you.Join in with us as we try our best to navigate through these tough queries… so sit back and enjoy it!

Send us a textToday, we finish chapter one and then enter the 2nd chapter. We may have changed chapters, but the quality of the material didn't change a bit! Paul spoke of how the power of God works in him mightily, and he also spoke of the burden he had to reach the churches. He wanted to comfort them of their full assurance, and of their understanding of the mystery of God. He mentioned something very intriguing as well. He said that all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Christ. In our Q&A segment, we answer a good question: Is it wrong for Christians to have heroes they look up to?We want to encourage you to give this powerful study a listen! 

Send us a textToday, we discuss a mystery that has been around for ages! The good news is that this mystery has been made manifest to God's people, and it has made known the riches of His glory among the Gentiles. Our hope of glory is Christ in us, and now we have been given a job to do. We are to warn every man, and tell them about Jesus. Paul did this to the best of his ability, and we are to do the same. In our Q&A segment today, we answer this question: I recently attended a wedding, and I noticed that the vows had been reworded from what I remember in our wedding, and the part about the wife submitting to her husband was nowhere to be found…can this still be viewed as a biblically correct wedding?This is a very challenging episode, and you don't want to miss out on the blessing God has for you in this study.Come on and give it a listen today! 

Send us a textToday, we felt led to tackle a subject that a lot of people are dealing with today. As a matter of fact, many families are struggling with this sin that seems so prevalent. What is lust, and can you truly conquer it? Is there hope for people who are bound by this sin? Where does it lead to, and what can one expect? We talk about all of this and much more in today's episode.This is one study you don't want to miss!

Send us a textToday, we talk about our need to continue in the faith, being grounded and settled in our faith. We are to never move away from the Gospel, of which Paul was called to minister. We talk about how Paul viewed his ministry, and how he suffered so much for the Gospel. He believed he was called to fulfill the will of God by preaching the Word of God. In our Q&A segment, we were asked a really good question: Our pastor stresses the need for us to witness and try to get people to come to church… is this really necessary? If people truly wanted to come, wouldn't they do it regardless?This encouraging episode will benefit every believer, and challenge every unbeliever, so we invite you to listen to it today! 

Send us a textToday, we talk about some more amazing things that Paul told the Colossian believers! He proclaims that Jesus made peace through the blood of His cross, and reconciled all things to Himself. We who were alienated from God, and were His enemies, have now been reconciled to God through the death of Christ. Because of this, we are now unblameable and unrebukable in His sight. In our Q&A segment we were asked an interesting question: With the election coming up, I am not comfortable voting for either candidate, because they are both ungodly in my opinion… is it wrong for me to vote this time? We talk about all of this and much more… we feel you will miss out on a lot unless you listen to this episode, so go ahead! 

Send us a textToday, we bring you another Q&A, and it is our 2nd one dedicated to the Holy Ghost in the past few months! This is our 24th Q&A, which marks our 2-year anniversary of doing these fan favorites. We felt it appropriate to celebrate by using the remainder of the questions we have received regarding the Spirit. We were sent some really good questions, and a few of them were a little challenging. We feel very confident that this episode will delight you, while we pray that the answers will bless you.We want to encourage you to sit back and enjoy it! 

Send us a textToday, we have the pleasure of going over some of the most powerful verses one can read! We talk about how it is by Jesus all things were created, and that includes in heaven and on earth, and things visible and invisible. Everything was created by Him, but also for Him as well. He was before all things, and it is by Him that all things consist. He is the head of the body, He is the firstborn of the dead, and He is to have the preeminence. In our Q&A segment, we were asked an interesting question: Were Adam and Eve Jews? We feel this study will be a blessing to all who listens, so go ahead!  

Send us a textToday, we continue our deep examination of this beautiful epistle, and we only get through one verse! Don't worry… we don't spend our time repeating ourselves, for there is much to look at within this verse. We talk about how Jesus is the Firstborn of Creation, what it means, where it leads some people, and much more. We dove in on the deep end today, and we pull some amazing verses out of the OT that answer a lot of questions. In our Q&A segment, we answer the question: I recently read a poll that says the divorce rate is about the same within the church as it is in the world… Is this true? If so, how does serving God pay off when it comes to marriage?Don't just stand there… get this thing going... we believe this episode is one of our best ever! 

Send us a textToday, we change things up a bit, and the occasion called for it! This episode is a celebration of our 3-year anniversary in doing this podcast!

We do a lot of looking back, reflecting, and thanking God for our audience which has helped us make it these 3 years! This isn't a humdrum episode… we talk about some pretty surprising things, and we get very transparent.We believe you will enjoy this change of pace as much as we did, so come on and listen in to it right now!
