Somebody at the sale barn tells you the Bible has been rewritten so many times you can't trust a word of it. Pete said always be ready to explain it, so here is what you say back. Kevin Weatherby opens No Apologies, a five week series on how to defend your faith, built on 1 Peter 3:15-16. Week one takes the three things people throw at the Book itself. In 1947 they found the Dead Sea Scrolls in a cave near Qumran, and the copy of Isaiah in there was a thousand years older than the oldest one we had, and it said the same thing. The top skeptic scholar in the country admits in writing that most of the differences between the copies do not change a thing that matters. A document called the Muratorian Fragment already listed 22 of the 27 New Testament books as scripture in AD 180, a hundred and forty five years before anybody rode to Nicaea. And four witnesses who tell it a little different from each other are not lying, because nobody lies to make himself look bad. In this message: "The Bible has been rewritten and changed over time" "The Council of Nicaea decided what was in the Bible" "The Bible is full of contradictions" Scripture: 1 Peter 3:15-16, 1 Timothy 5:18, 2 Peter 3:15-16 Grab this week's free 5-day Bible study at savethecowboy.org.

Greg Parker teaches through the overarching story of the Bible, beginning in Genesis 1–3 and moving to Daniel 7 and Revelation, to show how Scripture presents a unified account of God's purpose for creation. He explains humanity's original stewardship, the entrance of sin through rebellion, and the promise of a coming “seed” who would defeat the enemy. Focusing on Daniel 7, Greg highlights the “Son of Man” as a central title used by Jesus, connecting it to His authority, His kingdom, and His role in fulfilling God's plan. The teaching also considers Romans 8 and Revelation to describe the present condition of a fallen world, the reality of suffering, and the hope of restoration as God brings His purposes to completion. Throughout this Bible teaching, Greg emphasizes that believers are part of this story as heirs with Christ, looking ahead to the day when God dwells with His people and establishes His eternal kingdom.

Reading the Bible can feel intimidating—confusing passages, unfamiliar contexts, and the question of where do I even start? In Part 3 of our Bible series, Chuck helps bring the Scriptures down to earth by offering practical tools for reading the Bible with clarity, consistency, and confidence.In this episode, we talk about how to approach different parts of the Bible, what to do when you feel stuck or overwhelmed, and how to move from simply reading the text to actually understanding and applying it in everyday life. Whether you're brand new to the Bible or have been reading it for years, this conversation will help you develop a healthier, more sustainable rhythm of engaging with God's Word.Perfect for anyone who wants the Bible to feel less abstract and more livable.
A lot of people wonder the same thing, whether they're religious or not: If God is real, how would anyone actually hear from Him? Is it a feeling? A sign? A random thought? And how do you know you're not just making it up?In this episode, Josiah breaks down one of the most common and confusing questions people ask about the Bible. He explores why so many of us feel unsure about God's voice, why spiritual signals can feel overwhelming or unreliable, and how Jesus actually said God communicates with people.
We all say we care about certain things. Relationships. Health. Purpose. Meaning. God. But when life gets busy, overwhelming, or painful, those things somehow always end up last.In this episode, Izzy shares what a normal, chaotic day looks like, why so many of us struggle to slow down, and how distractions, doubt, guilt, and exhaustion quietly shape our lives. She walks through a moment from Jesus' life where he faced the same three pressures we face every day: what we need, what we want, and who we think we are.

The Significance of the Number 40 in the Bible The Bible is rich with symbolism and meaning, and one of the most intriguing aspects is the use of numbers. Among these, the number 40 stands out for its frequent and varied appearances. From the Old Testament to the New Testament, the number 40 in the Bible is often associated with periods of trial, testing, and transformation. In this article, we will explore the significance of the number 40 in the Bible, delving into its various contexts and meanings. The Symbolism of the Number 40 Periods of Testing and Trial The number 40 in the Bible is frequently linked to periods of testing and trial. A notable example is the 40 days and nights of rain during the Great Flood in the book of Genesis. This period marked a time of purification and renewal for the Earth. Similarly, Moses spent 40 days and nights on Mount Sinai receiving the Ten Commandments, a period of intense spiritual preparation and revelation.
Send us a Text Message.Recap of Where We Are + How Kings Fits into the Bible:The Bible is a collection of small stories that together tell a much larger story.The larger story is the entire history of our redemption, with Jesus as the ultimate hero.Kings is in the middle of that history. We are on a journey through God's plan to save us. How does 1 and 2 Kings fit into the Bible?1 Kings is the 11th book in the Old Testament and 2 Kings is the 12th.The Old Testament has 5 divisions. The next division is called the History books which include 12 books. The division is aptly named because these books describe Israel's history in Canaan. We have discussed 5 of the History books, seasons 5-10. The Books of Kings are right in the middle of The History Books, which begins with the book of Joshua and ends with the book of Esther.Thank you for being a part of the club.Show NotesBlogThe Path to Good or EvilDavid's CensusThe Tribal Allotments of IsraelJerusalem in the Time of David and SolomonDavid's Wars of ConquestThe Old Testament BooksThe New Testament BooksBible TimelineContact Bible Book ClubLike, comment, or message us through Bible Book Club's InstagramLike or comment on Susan's Facebook or InstagramLeave us an Apple reviewContact us through our website formThanks for listening and happy podcasting!

In the book of Revelation, Jesus Christ warns his followers that he will come again, "as a thief in the night." This means that his coming will be unexpected and sudden. Jesus tells his followers to "watch" and to be prepared for his coming. He says that those who are watching will be "blessed." the phrase "behold I come blessed is he that watcheth" is a reminder to Christians to be prepared for the coming of Christ. This means living a life of faith and obedience to God. It also means being aware of the signs of the times and being ready for Christ's return at any moment. Here are some examples of how Christians can "watch" for the coming of Christ: Studying the Bible: The Bible is full of prophecies about the Second Coming of Christ. By studying the Bible, Christians can learn more about what to expect when Christ returns. Praying: Prayer is a way of communicating with God. By praying, Christians can ask God to help them to be prepared for his coming. Living a life of faith: A life of faith is a life that is lived in accordance with God's will. By living a life of faith, Christians can demonstrate their love for God and their readiness for his coming. Being aware of the signs of the times: The Bible says that there will be certain signs that will indicate the coming of Christ. By being aware of these signs, Christians can be more prepared for his return. The phrase "behold I come blessed is he that watcheth" is a call to action for all Christians. It is a reminder that we should always be prepared for the coming of Christ, no matter when it may happen. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christadelphians-talk/message

A covenant is more than a mere contract; it is a sacred and unbreakable promise between the Almighty and His people. Let us explore this divine connection through the lens of Scripture. Jeremiah 33:20 God says, 'If my covenant with day and my covenant with night ever fell apart so that day and night became haphazard and you never knew which was coming and when, 21 then and only then would my covenant with my servant David fall apart and his descendants no longer rule. The same goes for the Levitical priests who serve me I. Definition of Covenant: A. Covenant in the Bible: The Bible defines a covenant as a solemn agreement established between God and His people. It goes beyond a legal transaction; it is a relational bond built on trust and faithfulness. B. Key Elements: 1. Promises: God's covenant is marked by His promises to His people. As seen in Genesis 17:7, God declares, "I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you." 2. Conditions: While God's promises are unwavering, His covenants often come with conditions. Deuteronomy 28:1-2 emphasizes obedience as a key condition for receiving God's blessings. II. Biblical Covenants: A. Abrahamic Covenant (Genesis 17): 1. Promise of Descendants: God assures Abraham of descendants as numerous as the stars. 2. Sign of Circumcision: Circumcision becomes a visible sign of the covenant. B. Mosaic Covenant (Exodus 19-24): 1. Covenant at Mount Sinai: God establishe

Welcome to Passionate Life Church! This week we are blessed to have Pastor Andrew sharing the importance of looking at the world with a biblical perspective. Join us this Sunday! ----------------------------------------------------- Reason 8 we can trust the Bible: The Bible is one unified story. The books were picked because the early church recognized that these books had an inherent authority for how Christians live and what they believe. The Bible is a collection of 66 books and letters written by more than 40 authors over a period of about 1,500 years. The Bible itself illustrates some of the materials used: engravings in clay, inscriptions on tablets of stone, ink and papyrus, vellum, parchment, leather, and metals. The original languages of the Bible include Hebrew, common Greek, and Aramaic. 1 Peter 1:10-12 NLT Reason number 9 The bible has survived and thrived through all attacks. The Bible has been made illegal in 54 Countries. Bestselling book every year by far and 6 billion copies in circulation. 1 Peter 1:24-25 NLT Attack 1 (2 Kings 23:28-37). The prophet Jeremiah was commissioned by Jehovah to write a sacred scroll, which threatened divine destruction unless the king and his people repented of their wickedness. Attack 2 After the death of Alexander the Great, the Greek empire was divided into four segments (cf. Daniel 8:8), and the Jewish people fell under the control of a remarkably evil ruler whose name was Antiochus Epiphanes. Attack 3 Diocletian occupied the imperial throne from A.D. 284-305. In A.D. 303, he inaugurated a series of merciless persecutions upon those who professed the religion of Christ. Hurst notes: Reason 10 People were willing to die for it. William Tyndale was a linguist who believed that everyone should be able to read the Bible in their own language. However, under a 1408 law, translating the Bible into English was illegal. According to Wycliff Global Alliance the Bible has been translated into this many languages: Full Bible: 736 languages represent 6 billion people. New Testament: 1658 languages represent 824 million. Portions: 1264 languages represent 449 million. Total: 3658 with at least some scripture represents 7.23 billion people and 97% of the population.

Recently, a school district near Salt Lake City, Utah removed the Bible from elementary and middle school libraries. Though it quickly reversed course and returned it to the library shelves, the original decision was made in response to a complaint that the Bible contains pornographic content, and that certain parts are too “violent or vulgar” for young children. Meanwhile, school districts across the country require LGBT content, much of it grossly explicit, in elementary school classrooms as well as libraries. Some even refuse to allow parents to excuse their children from such content. It is, to put it mildly, upside down to silence the Bible in order to “protect” children while forcing radical ideas about identity and sexuality on them. Though the Bible speaks plainly about the violence and barbarity of fallen humanity (see the final three chapters of the book of Judges, for example), it is not gratuitous. More importantly, the Bible portrays evil as evil, rather than celebrating the brokenness under the guise of “authenticity,” “autonomy,” and “diversity.” Eliminating the Bible from education also ignores the crucial impact the Bible has had on the world, especially in shaping Western culture. On one hand, this is simply part of the wholesale condemnation of Western culture so common today. However, even if the Western heritage in the sciences, technology, human rights, freedom, and the arts are downplayed or ignored, at least some knowledge of the Bible is basic to knowing human history at all. Put differently, to assume that the Bible is no longer relevant to the modern world is to misunderstand both the Bible and the modern world. The latest episode of the Colson Center's What Would You Say? video series offers a response to the claim that “the modern world has moved beyond the Bible.” Here's a sample: The Bible's positive influence on the world as we know it has been so profound and so thorough that it's easy to forget just how much it has shaped our understanding of science, morality, politics, literature, music, language and so many other aspects of life and culture. Every video in the What Would You Say? series offers thoughtful, reasoned, and reliable answers to common cultural questions. This video explains how the Bible shaped Western culture, how the Bible's description of reality provided the grounding for modern science, and why there will be a growing demand for the Bible as more and more people come to faith around the world. For example, there is a reason that the scientific revolution did not emerge out of other cultures. Despite the common narrative that Christianity is anti-science, science requires a consistent natural order, something described from the very beginning of the Bible: The Bible describes a world that was made by God to be intelligible and orderly. Philosopher of science Stephen Meyer says, “Because we have an intelligence that has, as its source, the intelligence that built the world, we can understand the world….” This is why we expect consistency and order in nature. And why we expect, as humans, to be able to study and comprehend that consistency and order. In fact, the biblical description of reality provided the impetus for most arenas of learning and academic study, including history, medicine, math, and sociology. After all, learning requires that humans are knowers, that they are able to learn, and that the world is knowable. Most worldviews simply cannot ground these assumptions. Other videos in the What Would You Say? video series, which has now garnered over two million views, address questions about science, apologetics, sexuality, race, politics, and more. These videos are for parents to watch with their kids, teachers to use in class with students, and in small groups and Sunday School classes, too. New videos, each addressing a different question, will be added every couple of weeks. Please visit whatwouldyousay.org, or search for and subscribe to the What Would You Say? channel on YouTube. And please share these videos with friends, family, and on social media. This Breakpoint was co-authored by Michaela Estruth.

The Bible is the best selling book of all time and most Americans have at least one in their homes, but just because we open it and read it doesn't mean that it's easy to understand or apply to our lives.

In this message Teaching Pastor Weston Savell teaches about one of, if not the most important ingredient for the Christian life. It is the Bible. Our core value says, "Built on the Bible - The Bible, God's revealed Truth, without fault or error in everything it teaches, is the foundation and final authority for all that the Church and follower of Jesus does." With prayer, this core value drives us. It is the fuel by which we do life as believers, and we do faith as a church. Watch to see how valuable the Bible is (or can be) in your life.Weston's notes are here: https://notes.subsplash.com/fill-in/view?page=wcaRnUSaggp__________________________________________See what's happening at The Harbor on social media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/TheHarbor_lifeTwitter: https://twitter.com/TheHarbor_lifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheHarbordotlifeYouTube: https://YouTube.com/TheHarborWebsite: https://www.TheHarbor.lifeCSPL 032125CCLI 1424641

VERSE: [Jesus said,] “Those the Father has given me will come to me, and I will never reject them.” JOHN 6:37 -Jesus said “Those the Father has given me will come to me” -Come to Jesus -Ask him to show you his ways. -John Bunyan was tormented by guilt. -Jesus said, “He will never reject those who come to Him.” -Bunyan (former atheist) -Scripture has the voice of God -Read Scripture with renewed zeal and come alive to the Bible -The Bible is the source of life and fullness not religion TAKEAWAY: God's voice becomes clear to those who know Him, and the better we get to know Him, the stronger our sense of it grows. When we look at the Bible, we may not grasp who Jesus is. But when we look at Jesus, we grasp everything His Word speaks to us. PRAYER: Jesus, give me the gift of seeing Your Word with new eyes, as if I'm reading it for the first time every day. Make my vision come alive with new insights every time I gaze into the truth of Your Word. ▌ABOUT US ▌
2022Q2L01-The Creation from the Quarterly titled Genesis · Genesis very important book containing key information about our origin, our destiny, God's character and plan for His creation, the origin and problem with iniquity. · There are two different words used for God throughout the Bible and we see them starting in Genesis: - el (god), plural is elohim (gods) - YHWH: translated as "LORD" · Elohim is used starting in Genesis 1 and throughout the description of creation. Contrary to popular belief that this is the BIG POWERFUL MIGHT GOD term, it is actually more of a generic little “g” god term. You can find it used as such elsewhere in the Bible as a generic term for god or gods that are not the creator (e.g Gen 35:2,4, Exo 20:3, Exo 23:24, Deu 12:3, etc.). · The term YHWH (Yaweh) is first introduced starting in Gen 2:4 · Here, and many other places, YHWH is used along with “elohim” to denote that this is a specific god, in this case The God who created. · It also corresponds with the time we see God acting as manager of the earth and of creation and of and relating to mankind. · YHWH is not only the God that created (Gen 2:4) He is the one that man starts to call out to (Gen 4:26); He is the one that orders the flood (Gen 6:7); scatters the people at Babel (Gen 11:6); calls Abraham out from his land (Gen 15:18); makes a covenant with Moses; leads the Children of Israel out of Egypt with a mighty hand; meets with Moses on Mt. Sinai and speaks directly to the people from that mountain. · He is also the one who reveals His glory to Moses on the mountain (Exo 34:6), passing by him and proclaiming His own name: "The LORD (YHWH), the LORD (YHWH) God [El], merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth,(Exo 34:7) ... · MONDAY - It was good: God proclaims his work “good” and at the end of creation “good good” (or very good) indicating not only He is pleased with it, but that it ended up as He intended. · TUESDAY - The Sabbath: The Sabbath caps off creation, ending the creation week on a very good note, on a time to enjoy the creation and relationships that were formed. · WEDNESDAY - Creation of Humanity: We are physicially and spiritually made in the Image of God showing just how much God intended for us to be companions to Him, to be able to relate to Him and be close to Him · THURSDAY - Duty of Humanity: All of the activities God created for Man (tending to the animals, tending the garden, joining in marriage, creating and raising children) are key to helping us understand our relationship with God, as our relationship with God seems to be the most important object that God had in mind for His creation. · FRIDAY - Science and the Bible: The Bible withstands scientific scrutiny no matter how much knowledge man obtains. Who would know that the discovery of DNA and Chromosomes and DNA would support the fact that you can make a woman from a man, that the man has all the genetic information to do this, whereas you cannot go the other way to make a man from a woman (even as that would be the obvious assumption based on the fact that woman give birth to male babies all the time.) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/from-the-top-ministries/message
