We look at how these world views interact and challenge one another, particularly in the context of contemporary societal issues.Key Concepts:Modernism: A 20th-century movement emphasizing experimentation, abstraction, and subjective experience across various fields including literature, visual arts, music, philosophy, politics, and social issues. It arose from a sense of alienation from traditional morality and social norms.Postmodernism: An intellectual stance characterized by scepticism towards both religion as well as scientific rationalism and objective reality. It questions all "grand narratives", rejects stable meanings, and emphasizes relativism and pluralism.Slavoj Žižek: A Slovenian philosopher known for his work on ideology, Marxism, political theory, psychoanalysis, culture, and theology. He is critical of the contemporary appropriation of the term "wisdom.Biblical Wisdom: Rooted in Scripture, biblical wisdom I content is a divine gift characterized by moral purity and spiritual discernment. It transcends human understanding and emphasizes a deep, ongoing relationship with God.Main Discussion Points:Biblical Perspective on Wisdom:Tension Between Worldly and Divine Wisdom:Postmodernism vs. Biblical Wisdom:Modern Social Issues and Biblical Morality:Critique of Simplified Morality:Superficial Engagement and True Transformation:The Role of Ideologies:Christian Call to Authenticity:Conclusion: By engaging with complex philosophical and moral questions through the lens of biblical wisdom, we can seek deeper understanding and live more meaningful lives. This episode encourages listeners to explore these intersections critically and thoughtfully, always seeking to align their understanding with God's eternal truths.Scripture References:James 3:171 Corinthians 1:20-22Proverbs 3:5-6Colossians 2:3Isaiah 5:20Matthew 22:37-392 Corinthians 13:5Proverbs 2:3-52 Peter 3:18Genesis 1:27Galatians 3:281 John 1:8Revelation 3:15-16James 2:17Isaiah 58:6Ephesians 6:12John 8:32Matthew 7:3-51 Corinthians 3:192 Timothy 3:5Matthew 6:24Matthew 7:26-27Isaiah 55:2Matthew 23:27-28Matthew 6:24Proverbs 3:5-6John 14:6Matthew 23:24Matthew 6:24Matthew 5:6Support the showFor an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

While drawing a few, his words offend many.INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTSERMON OUTLINECONCLUSIONNOTESOUTLINESQUESTIONS TO CONSIDER DISCUSSION QUESTIONSMAIN REFERENCES USEDOpening prayer: Lord God, help us grow to be and do like Jesus, while abiding in him and leading others to do the same. INTRODUCTIONBottom line: Jesus' uniqueness makes him a polarizing figure. While drawing a few, his words offend many.Does Jesus offend you?Apparently, the uniqueness of Jesus offended many in the first century...and today.The Battle Today Is Around Jesus"I have been involved in hosting or helping a small group on [Alpha](https://www.alpha.org/ ) for over thirty years. During this time, I have noticed a shift in our culture. There is a change in the attitude towards Jesus, especially among young people. Many will say that they believe in God and are even open to the idea of the Holy Spirit. But increasingly, Jesus has become the stumbling-block. Some youth and young people say things like, ‘I don't get the reason for *Jesus*.' As Cardinal Raniero Cantalamessa has often said, ‘The battle today is around Jesus.' Is Jesus the universal Saviour? This is the same battle as the first century. People today are happy to accept Jesus as ‘one of many'. It is the uniqueness of Jesus that causes offence......while we meet some exceptional people throughout the Bible, like Moses, Joshua, Elijah and John the Baptist, there was no one like Jesus. Jesus is unique. He is the *universal Saviour*."The Bible with Nicky and Pippa Gumbel, Classic Version, 2025: Day 119 • DevotionalBottom line: Jesus' uniqueness makes him a polarizing figure. While drawing a few, his words offend many.Does Jesus offend you too?OUTLINE1. Trust & follow Jesus, even when His words offend you.Verses 52–59 • Jesus speaks of eating His flesh and drinking His blood—language that's deeply disturbing to His hearers. The Old Testament taught to not drink blood or eat meat with blood in it. • He doesn't explain it away, because following Him means trusting what we can't fully understand yet. His words are hard to understand and demanding. • Application: When Jesus offends your expectations, don't walk away—lean in and trust His word.2. Trust & follow Jesus, even when many turn away from His words.Verses 60–66 • Many disciples leave, calling His teaching too hard to accept. • Jesus says only the Spirit gives life—fleshly thinking won't grasp the kingdom. • Application: Don't measure truth by popular opinion—stay faithful to His word, even when others fall away.3. Trust & follow Jesus, because only He has what you truly need.Verses 67–69 • Peter's confession is both humble and bold: “To whom shall we go?” • Jesus alone has the words of eternal life. • Application: When you're tempted to quit, remember why you started—Jesus alone gives life. He is the Bread of Life.4. Examine your heart—proximity to Jesus is not the same as following His word.Verses 70–71 • Judas was chosen, included, and close—but not surrendered. • Even among the Twelve, there's a warning: not all who appear near truly believe. • Application: Don't just walk with Jesus outwardly—depend on His word inwardly.CONCLUSION Bottom line: Jesus' uniqueness makes him a polarizing figure. While drawing a few, his words offend many.Does Jesus offend you too?1. Trust & follow Jesus, even when His words offend you.2. Trust & follow Jesus, even when many turn away from His words.3. Trust & follow Jesus, because only He has what you truly need.4. Examine your heart—proximity to Jesus is not the same as following His word.This poem is what could happen to you and me if we fully embrace and believe Jesus is who he says he is and will do all he's promised to do:The Touch of the Master's Hand''Twas battered and scarred, and the auctioneer Thought it scarcely worth his while To waste much time on the old violin But held it up with a smile."What am I bid, good folks," he cried, "Who'll start the bidding for me?A dollar, a dollar—now two, only two-Two dollars, and who'll make it three?"Three dollars once, three dollars twice, Going for three"-but no!From the room far back a gray-haired man Came forward and picked up the bow;Then wiping the dust from the old violin And tightening up the strings, He played a melody, pure and sweet. As sweet as an angel sings.The music ceased, and the auctioneer With a voice that was quiet and low, Said: "What am I bid for the old violin?" And he held it up with the bow."A thousand dollars—and who'll make it two? Two thousand—and who'll make it three?Three thousand once and three thousand twice And going and gone," said he.The people cheered, but some of them cried, "We do not quite understandWhat changed its worth?" The man replied, "THE TOUCH OF THE MASTER'S HAND."And many a man with a life out of tune, And battered and torn with sin.Is auctioned cheap to the thoughtless crowd, Much like the old violin.A "mess of pottage," a glass of wine, A game and he travels on.He's going once and going twice, He's going—and almost—gone!But the MASTER comes, and the foolish crowd Never can quite understandThe worth of a soul, and the change that's wrought By the TOUCH OF THE MASTER'S HAND.Myra Brooks-WelchHas he touched you?Does he offend you?Bottom line: Jesus' uniqueness makes him a polarizing figure. While drawing a few, his words offend many.Does Jesus offend you too?INVITATIONWhat about you?Does Jesus offend you...or does he draw you?A Table Set by God • The Lord's Supper is a living illustration of this passage. The bread we break is a sign of the true bread from heaven-Jesus' body given for us. Every time we eat, we remember that our deepest hunger is met in Him.Peter puts it all in perspective in his first sermon:““Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”” Acts 2:36-39 NIVHow do we respond? Answer 2 questions:Take out a card or piece of paper right now. Write down the answer to these questions: What is God saying to me right now?What am I going to do about it? Write this down on a sheet of paper. What I hear you saying, Lord, is ___________________.[my name] is going to believe/do __________________________________________________ as a result.Finally, share this with your Home or Mission group this week when you gather as a testimony about what God is doing in your life. You don't have to get too specific to give him praise.Lord's Supper, 1 Cor 11:23-26 is good passage.Also, say something like, "Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again."

He teaches that he is the "bread from heaven" and that all who wish to have eternal life must eat his flesh and drink his blood. Many of his followers, unable to accept this difficult symbolism, desert him. I. TWO MIRACLES (6:1-24) A. First miracle (6:1-15): Jesus feeds the 5,000.B. Second miracle (6:16-24): Jesus walks on water. II. Two MESSAGES (6:25-71) A. Public comments (6:25-66)Christ and the curious (6:25-40)a. He speaks concerning God's salvation (6:25-36). (1) Their confusion (6:25-26, 28, 30-31, 36) (a) They want to know how he got there (6:25).(b) They seek him only for physical bread (6:26). (c) They don't know how to please God (6:28). (d) They assume the Old Testament manna came from Moses (6:30-31). (e) They don't believe in him even though they have seen him (6:36). (2) His correction (6:27, 29, 32-35) (a) They are to seek him for spiritual bread (6:27, 33-35). (b) They will please God by believing in him (6:29). (c) He says the Old Testament manna came from God (6:32). b. He speaks concerning God's sovereignty (6:37-40). (1) Guaranteeing that all the elect will come to Christ (6:37): They will never be rejected (2) Guaranteeing that all the elect will continue in Christ (6:38-40): All who believe in him will be raised at the last day. 2. Christ and the critical (6:41-59) a. Their criticism (6:41-42, 52) (1) He is simply the son of Joseph (6:41-42). (2) No one can (physically) eat his flesh and drink his blood (6:52). b. His correction (6:43-51, 53-59) (1) Jesus says he is the bread of life (6:43-51). (2) Jesus says that anyone who wants eternal life must (spiritually) eat his flesh and drink his blood (6:53-59). 3. Christ and the carnal (6:60-66) a. Many of his followers now decide against him (6:60-65). b. Many of his followers now depart from him (60:66).QUESTIONS TO CONSIDERWhat do I want them to know?

I forgot to give the context of Hebrews 6:4-6: The author is speaking specifically to the Hebrew people, who are at the time having trouble accepting Jesus as the only way to heaven ( which you can read about throughout the book of Acts), so the writer needs to address this specific issue with them and give a different approach. That's why Hebrews might be a difficult book for us ( gentiles) to understand. The author through the majority of the book focuses one only one sin- not accepting Jesus as Savior. That context is very important to understand chapter 6. With that understanding, you can see how the author is not speaking on saved people losing salvation, but rather those people never accepting it to begin with.KEY VERSES: Proverbs 2:6Matthew 5:27Matthew 15:11Isaiah 51:2Romans 6:23Romans 5:12John 3:15Romans 10:9Ephesians 2:1Matthew 13:11Ephesians 1:17Ephesians 1:13-14Romans 11:29Ephesians 2:8 2Corinthians 11:12-14Email: amaniw@amaniwortham.com www.amaniwortham.com Bali Women Retreat Info: https://www.canva.com/design/DAGd345XcSs/OUA35vTaCHhiNxOWmm9AhA/edit?utm_content=DAGd345XcSs&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=sharebutton

What I meant is that the person who is responding to Jesus in Luke 10:36-37 about the parable uses a different word than splagchnizomai to describe what the Samaritan in the parable did, but in the parable itself splagchnizomai is indeed the word used to describe what the Samaritan felt.Feel free to email the podcast at ijustwanttotalkabout@gmail.com, and we will respond as soon as we are able!I WANT TO BE DISCIPLEDI am on staff with another ministry called Mentoring Men for the Master (M3).

How do we find purpose in our lives? On this week's episode of The Alex McFarland Show, Alex talks about how to find purpose and that everyone will give account to God for our lives.

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Pastor Jerry uses the story of the false prophet in Acts 13 to teach us about the tactics of the enemy. The enemy only comes to seek, kill, and destroy what God has made good. Being on team Jesus, we know that we win in the end. We'll spend eternity with God but this enemy can steal all the good that God intends for our lives/the lives of our loved ones on this side of eternity if we let him! To stand strong in our fight against the devil, we're called to spend time in the Word, stay connected in a faith community, and be alert.|| ABOUT BEACH CHURCH || We exist to reach, raise up, and release followers of Jesus who change the world. Our goal is to create an environment where everyone is welcome to learn about a relationship with God, whether you're curious or confident in your faith. || GET CONNECTED || Here at Beach, we are most passionate about seeing people come into a relationship with Jesus!

The other times I read it, I read that part correctly. However, here is the verse: "Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, then comes the harvest'? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that the fields are white for harvest."When I said, "Seeking out people; saving people; restoring people to relationship with God; forgiving our sins" I was referring to what Jesus does. I was not implying that we ourselves can save people, restore them to relationship with God, or forgive their sins. Nevertheless, Jesus works through us.I paraphrased John 7:17. Here is the exact quote: "If anyone's will is to do God's will, he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority."Support the Show.If you feel so led, you can support the podcast by clicking HERE or by clicking the "Support the show" button above.

Jesus emphasizes the necessity for His disciples to willingly accept challenging teachings from Him without taking offense. This spiritual maturity is crucial for a thriving relationship with God. It's not enough to simply listen to these hard truths; we must actively apply them in our lives. 04/11/2024 - Thursday NightScriptures Used (In Order of Occurrence):John 6:53-54, 60-61Matthew 15:10-12John 6:66-69Acts 17:10-12Psalm 119:165Luke 18:22-23Matthew 11:6
The presence of the Holy Ghost, the Spirit of God in us, is not arbitrary or devoid of purpose - rather, God intends in very precise ways to work through us. To fully align with God's will, we must be careful not to obstruct the Spirit's flow in our lives. When a believer is filled with the Holy Ghost, He should permeate every aspect of this person's being.04/04/2024 - Thursday NightScriptures Used (In Order of Occurrence):Colossians 1:26-29Romans 8:9John 14:26Isaiah 28:11-12John 16:13Acts 1:8Romans 8:11

Michael Buhrman was a naval-trained nuclear engineer, so why was he on the run as a fugitive, fleeing to Venezuela? His bad choices caught up with him and he was sentenced to 40 years in prison. Amazingly, Michael found himself with Christian cellmates at every turn. And that Bible he initially used as scratch paper? It transformed his life into the faithful witness he is today. Michael now holds a doctorate in Biblical studies. Today's Sendoff features Blind Tony in a poem that was inspired by Michael's story.Transcript of the showBible verses mentioned in the show:Proverbs 13:20Evil company corrupts good habitsHebrews 4:12John 15:13While we were yet sinnersMatthew 28:19When I was hungryA broken and contrite heartPrison ministries:Koinonia House Prison MinistryPrison Fellowship MinistryRadical Time OutFreedom from Within Prison Ministry Follow One80 on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or our website.Never miss a One80.
