Leitura Bíblica Do Dia: SALMO 142 Plano De Leitura Anual: SALMOS 132–134; 1 CORÍNTIOS 11:17-34  Já fez seu devocional hoje? Aproveite e marque um amigo para fazer junto com você! Confira:  Talvez eu não devesse ter corrido com Bruno. Estávamos em um país estrangeiro e eu nada sabia sobre o local, distância e terreno onde iríamos, e ele era um corredor de velocidade. Poderia me ferir ao tentar acompanhá-lo? Confiar nele apenas por ele conhecer o caminho? Quando começamos, fiquei mais preocupado, pois a trilha era difícil, serpenteava uma floresta densa em terreno irregular. Felizmente, Bruno foi me guiando e avisando sobre as dificuldades a superar. Talvez tenha sido assim nos tempos bíblicos, quando as pessoas entravam em território desconhecido: Abraão em Canaã, os israelitas no deserto e os discípulos de Jesus em sua missão de pregar as boas-novas. Eles não tinham ideia de como seria a jornada, exceto que certamente ela seria difícil. Mas eles tinham Alguém que os orientava e conhecia o caminho a seguir. Eles confiaram que Deus lhes daria forças para enfrentar e que cuidaria deles. Podiam segui-lo porque o Senhor sabia exatamente o que estava por vir. Essa garantia confortou Davi quando ele estava fugindo. Apesar da grande incerteza, Davi disse a Deus: “Quando estou abatido, somente tu sabes o caminho que devo seguir” (SALMO 142:3). Haverá momentos na vida em que temeremos o que está por vir. Mas nós sabemos disto: nosso Deus, que caminha conosco, conhece o caminho.   Por: LESLIE KOH

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA         III TRIMESTRE DEL 2025Narrado por: Eddie RodriguezDesde: Guatemala, GuatemalaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchMARTES 26 DE AGOSTOEL PLAN ORIGINAL DE DIOS Lee Éxodo 23:20 al 33. ¿Qué métodos quiso utilizar Dios para conquistar la Tierra Prometida? La intención de Dios no era que los israelitas lucharan por su nuevo territorio, sino que este les sería otorgado. La Tierra Prometida había sido prometida a Abraham, Isaac y Jacob, y debería haber sido recibida por Israel como un regalo especial de Dios.El modelo para la conquista de la Tierra Prometida se hizo patente durante el cruce del Mar Rojo. Dios luchó por su pueblo y le concedió la victoria total sobre quienes pretendían destruirlo (Éxo. 14:13, 14). Los egipcios fueron derrotados porque el Señor intervino milagrosamente. Del mismo modo, en tiempos del rey asirio Senaquerib, Dios también derrotó al vasto ejército asirio, fuertemente equipado y bien entrenado, sin que los israelitas tuvieran que luchar. Dios les concedió la victoria porque el rey Ezequías creyó en la palabra de Dios que le fue comunicada por el profeta Isaías (2 Rey. 19:35; Isa. 37:36). Dios informó a Abraham que la Tierra Prometida no sería entregada inmediatamente a su posteridad, sino recién al cabo de cuatrocientos años (Gén. 15:13-16). ¿Por qué? La razón estaba relacionada con la maldad de los habitantes de Canaán. Dios estaba obrando misericordiosamente con ese pueblo y les concedió otro período de gracia para que se arrepintieran. Sin embargo, ellos continuaron en su rebelión contra Dios y sus valores, así que cuando la iniquidad de esas naciones alcanzó su clímax, Dios se dispuso a entregar su territorio a los hebreos como una nueva patria. Además, Dios prometió que expulsaría a las naciones delante de Israel usando dos métodos inusuales pero muy efectivos: (1) infundiendo temor a las naciones malvadas, y (2) con avispas que ahuyentarían a la gente. Antes de que los israelitas llegaran al nuevo territorio, sus enemigos abandonarían el lugar y huirían de ellos (Éxo. 23:27, 28). El papel crucial en la conquista de la Tierra Prometida lo desempeña el Ángel de Dios. Este Mensajero era Cristo, quien guiaba a Israel y los protegía. Él era la columna de nube que los guiaba de día y la columna de fuego durante la noche. Israel debía prestarle mucha atención y escucharlo porque tenía autoridad divina (Éxo. 23:21). El desafío a la voluntad de Dios y la incredulidad respecto de su liderazgo complicarían el avance del pueblo. ¿Qué nos enseña acerca de la gracia de Dios el hecho de que concedió muchos años a los paganos para que abandonaran sus malos hechos? A su vez, ¿qué nos enseña eso acerca de los límites de su gracia hacia quienes se niegan a aceptarla? 

Josué é chamado para viver um grande desafio e liderar o povo de Deus num novo ciclo de sua história. Moisés, o grande líder que libertou o povo e o conduziu por 40 anos no deserto havia morrido. A entrada em Canaã representaria uma grande disruptura na vida de uma geração que havia nascido no deserto. Mas Deus desafia Josué a não temer e confiar plenamente em sua orientação e palavra. ≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈ Comunidade Presbiteriana Chácara Primavera contemporânea • criativa • acolhedora • transformadora http://chacara.org https://facebook.com/chacaraprimavera/ https://instagram.com/chacaraprimavera/

Full Text of ReadingsTwenty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 123The Saint of the day is Saint BartholomewSaint Bartholomew’s Story In the New Testament, Bartholomew is mentioned only in the lists of the apostles. Some scholars identify him with Nathanael, a man of Cana in Galilee who was summoned to Jesus by Philip. Jesus paid him a great compliment: “Here is a true Israelite. There is no duplicity in him” (John 1:47b). When Nathanael asked how Jesus knew him, Jesus said, “I saw you under the fig tree” (John 1:48b). Whatever amazing revelation this involved, it brought Nathanael to exclaim, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel” (John 1:49b). But Jesus countered with, “Do you believe because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than this” (John 1:50b). Nathanael did see greater things. He was one of those to whom Jesus appeared on the shore of the Sea of Tiberias after his resurrection (see John 21:1-14). They had been fishing all night without success. In the morning, they saw someone standing on the shore though no one knew it was Jesus. He told them to cast their net again, and they made so great a catch that they could not haul the net in. Then John cried out to Peter, “It is the Lord.” When they brought the boat to shore, they found a fire burning, with some fish laid on it and some bread. Jesus asked them to bring some of the fish they had caught, and invited them to come and eat their meal. John relates that although they knew it was Jesus, none of the apostles presumed to inquire who he was. This, John notes, was the third time Jesus appeared to the apostles. Reflection Bartholomew or Nathanael? We are confronted again with the fact that we know almost nothing about most of the apostles. Yet the unknown ones were also foundation stones, the 12 pillars of the new Israel whose 12 tribes now encompass the whole earth. Their personalities were secondary—without thereby being demeaned—to their great office of bearing tradition from their firsthand experience, speaking in the name of Jesus, putting the Word Made Flesh into human words for the enlightenment of the world. Their holiness was not an introverted contemplation of their status before God. It was a gift that they had to share with others. The Good News was that all are called to the holiness of being Christ's members, by the gracious gift of God. The simple fact is that humanity is totally meaningless unless God is its total concern. Then humanity, made holy with God's own holiness, becomes the most precious creation of God. Saint Bartholomew is the Patron Saint of: Plasterers Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Fr. Daniel Alloy, FSSP has served as Parochial Vicar at Regina Caeli Parish in Houston, Texas since July of 2022. He was ordained in June of 2020. In Today's Show: What happens if the Pope commits a crime in a foreign country? Should we practice traditional customs/reverential gestures when attending a Novus Ordo parish or should we conform to the casual atmosphere there? ​Is it a sin if you and your fiance live in the same house but stay in different rooms? Is it OK for laity to anoint people with sacramental oil that is not the holy oil from the church? What does it mean that some will have greater happiness than others in heaven because some will see God more clearly, as stated in the "Catechism for Adults"? Any tips on making a good confession and examination conscience? I saw some Catholic influencers online telling young couples to have children even if they cannot afford it because God will take care of it. Is this good advice? The power of Last Rites Why did Jesus wait for the “right time” to proclaim the Kingdom? Do we as Catholics believe you have to be Catholic to be saved? How do we get an FSSP apostolate in my city? Can you please explain the practical implications of a sacrament being ‘valid but illicit'? For example, if a suspended priest validly consecrates the Eucharist, should the faithful receive it, or abstain out of respect for canonical order? How should one navigate these gray areas? Would you deem it advisable to tear down advertisements for morally wrong activities on billboards? Obviously without breaking the seal of confession, have you ever had a moment in the confessional that just made you laugh afterward? If you could try one miraculous food in Scripture (manna in the desert, the multiplication of the loaves, or the wedding feast wine at Cana, etc.), which one would you choose and why?

Contraste: Abraham y Lot La Biblia nos muestra, en Génesis 13:10-12, un contraste profundo entre dos hombres: Abraham y Lot. Lot alzó sus ojos, vio la llanura del Jordán —verde, fértil, atractiva— y decidió habitar allí. Guiado por lo que veía y sentía, extendió sus tiendas hasta Sodoma, sin imaginar que esa decisión lo llevaría a la ruina. En cambio, Abraham permaneció en Canaán. No era la tierra más fácil: montañosa, rocosa, sin abundante agua; le tocó cavar pozos para sobrevivir. Sin embargo, no peleó, no reclamó su derecho como tío ni guardó rencor. Abraham confió en Dios. ¡Qué contraste tan grande! Lot siguió sus emociones y terminó perdiéndolo todo: su esposa, su fortuna y hasta su dignidad. Abraham, en cambio, se dejó guiar por Dios y recibió bendición. Romanos 8:14 nos recuerda: “Porque todos los que son guiados por el Espíritu de Dios, estos son hijos de Dios.” La pregunta es: ¿qué me guía a mí? ¿Mis emociones, mi razonamiento, mis deseos… o el Espíritu Santo? En Génesis 14 vemos a Lot prisionero de guerra por estar viviendo en el lugar equivocado. Y aun después de ser rescatado por Abraham, ¡volvió a Sodoma! La Palabra dice en Proverbios 14:12: “Hay camino que al hombre le parece derecho; pero su fin es camino de muerte.” ¿Cuántas veces Dios nos ha mostrado que algo no está bien y aun así insistimos en quedarnos en el mismo camino? Abraham, por su parte, no abandonó a su sobrino. Lo rescató, lo defendió y lo ayudó sin cobrarle nada, sin reproches, solo con amor. Por esa actitud, Dios lo bendijo y Abraham respondió reconociendo a Dios con sus diezmos (Génesis 14:18-20). Líderes, aquí hay una lección: no estamos llamados a condenar ni a señalar, sino a amar, a restaurar y a guiar con el corazón de Cristo. En Génesis 15:5, Dios lleva a Abraham fuera y le dice: “Mira los cielos, cuenta las estrellas, si las puedes contar… así será tu descendencia.” Las estrellas eran una señal de que la promesa se cumpliría. Abraham lo creyó y le fue contado por justicia. La pregunta es: ¿crees tú lo que Dios te ha prometido? Daniel 12:3 añade: “Los entendidos resplandecerán como el resplandor del firmamento; y los que enseñan la justicia a la multitud, como las estrellas a perpetua eternidad.” Las estrellas hoy representan a los hijos de Dios que iluminan este mundo con la luz de Cristo. ¿Estás brillando para Dios o te has convertido en un agujero negro que absorbe todo sin reflejar nada?

Just as God rested on the seventh day, satisfied that nothing more needed to be done, so we rest in Christ, knowing the work of making us righteous is already complete. The wedding at Cana, on John's “seventh day,” reminds us that God's rest is not dull idleness, but a joyful celebration rooted in covenant and grace. Our only “work” now is to believe this good news—ceasing from our striving, mixing the word we've heard with faith, and enjoying the life we already have in His name.

The Gospel of John Week 7 Scripture: John 4:31-5:29. Our study this week begins with a look at people beginning to realize that the Jewish Messiah has come, but He has come to be the Savior of all - not just the Jewish people, but ALL people! Jesus has been in Samaria and now returns to Cana where a high official in the government seeks Jesus out to heal his son who is dying.  Jesus heals the man's son and the official and his whole family came to faith in Jesus. 
Pastor talks about the feasts mentioned in the Gospel of John and how each finds its fulfillment in Jesus.  The feast mentioned in John 5:1-3 doesn't specifically mention which feast event is going on at this particular time, but Pastor speculates that it could be the Feast of Trumpets - Rosh Hashanah - the Jewish New Year - a time when the Jewish people are focused on this feast's call to repentance.   As we continue we see Jesus is at the Pool of Bethesda that had 5 colonnades.  Pastor talks about the discovery of this pool in 1890 and shares some photos of his from a visit there in recent years. He also shares additional discoveries and info that are quite interesting regarding deeper insights into the use of this pool and by whom. As Jesus approached the pool, hundreds of people may well have been at the pool.  Jesus says to an invalid of 38 years “Do you want to get well?”  There were many there but Jesus chooses to speak to just one person. Jesus, on this Sabbath Day, tells the man to get up and walk and the man walks away carrying his mat. The religious leaders had added many additional specific regulations to God's Sabbath Day - rest day. They had added 39 additional man made rules and the 39th rule was that carrying a piece of property from 1 location to another location was not allowed and what this man just did in carrying his mat broke their Sabbath regulations.  Jesus had deliberately provoked the religious establishment's petty laws saying in effect “How dare you substitute the goodness of God with your own petty regulations and rules.” And the religious leaders become incensed when they hear it was Jesus that healed him and so now they are after Jesus and they begin to persecute Him and desire to kill Him. Not only had Jesus broken their religious man-made rules by doing the work of healing this man on a Sabbath, but also because Jesus called God His own Father making Himself equal with God.  Jesus claimed deity - Jesus is the Living God come to earth!! Yet they desired to reject this truth!

Many people have come to faith after reading only this book of the Bible.  Scholarly and archeological discoveries in recent decades give us new insight on details in the Gospel of John. We can now understand it as the most Jewish rather than the most “Gentile/Greek” of the Gospels, and when we do that we see many things that we missed before. Our 2 year study of the gospels is great for large group, small group or home group study and can be started at any time!

The fourth and final Gospel is the Book of John written by one of Jesus' disciples by that same name - he is often referred to as the son of Zebedee.  John is also credited with writing First, Second and Third John, often referred to as the Johannine Epistles and the Book of Revelations.  In the first seven chapters of his Gospel, John chronicles Jesus' interaction with John the Baptist, the calling of the first disciples, the wedding at Cana, the cleansing of the temple, the meeting with the Samaritan woman at the well and the feeding of the five thousand.

In this conversation, we're joined by Professor Courtney Friesen, who is Professor of Classics and the Director of Graduate Studies in Classics at the University of Arizona and the author of Reading Dionysus: Euripides' Bacchae and the Cultural Contestations of Greeks, Jews, Romans, and Christians (published by Mohr Siebeck). In our conversation we talk about the Bacchae and its interpretation as well as other legends and myths about Dionysus. This leads us to several topics of relevance in the New Testament, especially the alleged drunkenness at Pentecost in Acts 2 and Jesus turning water to wine at Cana in John 2. Team members on the episode from The Two Cities include: Dr. John Anthony Dunne. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

“When the Wine Runs Out: God's Purpose in Your Emptiness” | John 2:1–12In John 2, Jesus' first recorded miracle takes place at a wedding—but the crisis wasn't just that they ran out of wine. It was a prophetic sign of what happens when human joy, strength, and resources run dry.In this teaching, we unpack: • Why God sometimes lets your “wine” run out before He moves • How old religious containers can't produce true life • Why Jesus fills before He transforms • The truth that miracles often happen in motion, not in waiting • How to surrender control and trust God's perfect timingIf you feel like you've reached the end of yourself, this message will help you see your emptiness not as a failure, but as an invitation for God to fill you with something far better than what you lost.The miracle at Cana isn't just about wine—it's about the Savior who turns lack into abundance and shame into joy. The best truly comes after the old runs dry.

Discover how the “third day” in Scripture points to God's ultimate rescue and eternal abundance. From water turned to wine in Cana to the resurrection of Jesus, this message inspires hope, endurance, and joy, reminding us that the best is yet to come—eternity with Him. The post Treasuring Eternity appeared first on Ottawa Church of Christ.

Canada's Housing Market Is Hitting a Breaking Point — and the August 2025 numbers prove it.Vancouver home prices have slipped to their lowest level in over two years. Toronto prices? Wiped back to 2020 levels — erasing nearly all the gains from the pandemic boom. Inventory is piling up, sales are stagnant, and in some cases, sellers are watching hundreds of thousands in value disappear.Meanwhile, the rental market — long thought to be untouchable — is cracking. Landlords are offering months of free rent to lure tenants, vacancy rates are climbing, and incentive-adjusted rents are falling fast. Investors are quietly exiting, major developers are hitting pause, and Canada's construction pipeline is suddenly at risk.It's not just housing feeling the pinch. Job vacancies have plunged to an 8-year low, the labour market is weakening at a worrying pace, and more Canadians are putting off retirement entirely — not by choice, but because the rising cost of living has left them with little or nothing to save. The “Bank of Mom & Dad” is under strain, debt is rising among older Canadians, and an entire generation is staring down the possibility of working well into their 70s.In this episode, we break down:The August 2025 Vancouver housing stats — including the first-ever July sales increase over June in history.Why Toronto's home prices are in full reversal mode.How the rental market is shifting — and why that could mean less housing built in the years ahead.The growing economic pressures that are reshaping how Canadians live, work, and retire.The rise in foreclosures and what it signals for the months ahead.This isn't just another market update — it's a snapshot of a housing and economic system under pressure from all sides. Whether you're a homeowner, renter, investor, or simply trying to understand where Canada's economy is headed, this is an episode you can't afford to miss.Watch to the end, then let us know in the comments: Do you think this is the start of a slow decline — or a sharper correction waiting to happen? _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchSÁBADO DE TARDE, 09 DE AGOSTOEL PAN Y EL AGUA DE VIDAMuchos recuerdan a los israelitas de antaño, y se maravillan de su incredulidad y murmuración, creyendo que ellos no habrían sido tan ingratos; pero cuando se prueba su fe, aun en las menores dificultades, no manifiestan más fe o paciencia que los antiguos israelitas. El Señor les había prometido ser su Dios, hacerlos su pueblo, y guiarlos a una tierra grande y buena; pero siempre estaban dispuestos a desmayar ante cada obstáculo que encontraban en su marcha hacia aquel lugar... Olvidaron su amarga servidumbre en Egipto. Olvidaron las bondades y el poder que Dios había manifestado en su favor al liberarlos de la esclavitud. Olvidaron cómo sus hijos se habían salvado cuando el ángel exterminador dio muerte a todos los primogénitos de Egipto. Olvidaron la gran demostración del poder divino en el mar Rojo. Olvidaron que mientras ellos habían cruzado con felicidad el sendero abierto especialmente para ellos, los ejércitos enemigos, al intentar per-seguirlos, se habían hundido en las aguas del mar. Veían y sentían tan solo las incomodidades y pruebas que estaban soportando, y en lugar de decir: "Dios ha hecho grandes cosas con nosotros, ya que habiendo sido esclavos, nos hace una nación grande", hablaban de las durezas del camino, y se preguntaban cuándo terminaría su tedioso peregrinaje. La historia de la vida de Israel en el desierto fue escrita para beneficio del Israel de Dios hasta el fin del tiempo. El relato de cómo trató Dios a los peregrinos en todas sus idas y venidas por el desierto, en su exposición al hambre, a la sed y al cansancio, y en las destacadas manifestaciones de su poder para aliviarlos, está lleno de advertencias e instrucciones para su pueblo de todas las edades. Las variadas experiencias de los hebreos eran una escuela destinada a prepararlos para su prometido hogar en Canaán. Dios quiere que su pueblo de estos días repase con corazón humilde y espíritu dócil las pruebas a través de las cuales el Israel antiguo tuvo que pasar, para que le ayuden en su preparación para la Canaán celestial (Conflicto y valor, 29 de marzo, p. 94). El pecado de los egipcios estuvo en que habían rehusado la luz que Dios les había enviado tan bondadosamente mediante José. Aunque muchos aceptaron esa luz, de muchos más podría decirse que Dios no estaba en todos sus pensamientos. Y el mensaje enviado para testificarles del desagrado de Dios fue: "Entended ahora esto, los que os olvidáis de Dios, no sea que os despedace, y no haya quien os libre". Cristo murió por cada alma en Egipto, y cada alma debía tener la luz. Los justos no debían ser excluidos de los impíos, sino guardados por el poder de Dios de recibir el moho y la mancha del transgresor (The Youth's Instructor, "God's Representatives [Moses]", 15 de abril, 1897, párr. 7). 

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA         III TRIMESTRE DEL 2025Narrado por: Miguel PáezDesde: Bogotá, ColombiaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchVIERNES 08 DE AGOSTOPARA ESTUDIAR Y MEDITAR: Lee el capítulo titulado “El Éxodo” en el libro Patriarcas y profetas, de Elena de White, pp. 286-295. Dios estaba con los israelitas a pesar de la escasa fe de ellos. Deseaba instruirlos y guiarlos a fin de que pensaran y se comportaran como su pueblo elegido. Dios los guio pacientemente y los dirigió a un lugar donde encontrarían menos desafíos. Elena de White dice lo siguiente al respecto: “Los israelitas estaban pobremente preparados para un encuentro con ese pueblo poderoso y belicoso. Tenían un conocimiento muy limitado de Dios y poca fe en él, y se habrían aterrorizado y desanimado. Carecían de armas y no estaban habituados a la guerra; tenían el espíritu deprimido por su prolongada servidumbre, y se hallaban estorbados por las mujeres y los niños, los rebaños y las manadas. Al dirigirlos por la ruta del Mar Rojo, el Señor se reveló como un Dios compasivo y juicioso” (Elena de White, Patriarcas y profetas, p. 287). Acerca del cántico de Moisés, el Comentario bíblico Andrews dice lo siguiente: “La certeza de este acto redentor de Dios en la historia nos asegura que nada tenemos que temer del futuro. La última estrofa se centra en los enemigos futuros que tendrían que ser enfrentados en la conquista de Canaán. Por causa del ‘brazo poderoso' (RVC) de Dios, enmudecerían ‘como una piedra' (v. 16). Cuando enfrentamos certeras imposibilidades, cuando nos sentimos acorralados y no sabemos adónde acudir, podemos encontrar seguridad en ‘el cántico de Moisés', porque conmemora un gran acontecimiento de la historia del pueblo de Dios” (Comentario bíblico Andrews, t. 1, p. 250). PREGUNTAS PARA DIALOGAR: 1. ¿Por qué nos encontramos tan a menudo en la posición de los hebreos después de su increíble liberación de Egipto, pero antes del desafío del Mar Rojo? Es decir, ¿por qué nos sigue resultando tan fácil mostrar y expresar falta de fe a pesar de tantas demostraciones divinas de bondad y amor para con nosotros? 2. ¿Por qué el faraón siguió persiguiendo a Israel después de todo lo sucedido, incluida la muerte de los primogénitos? ¿Qué debería decirnos esto acerca de cuán peligroso es para cualquiera de nosotros endurecerse a causa del pecado o pecar? 3. Aunque todos enfrentamos a veces pruebas terribles, muchos hemos tenido (y seguimos teniendo) días muy buenos y momentos en los que no nos ocurre nada malo a nosotros ni a nuestros seres queridos. ¿Por qué deberíamos considerar esos momentos como una demostración de la gracia y la protección de Dios, sobre todo en vista de que vivimos en territorio “enemigo”? Es decir, ¿por qué deberíamos acordarnos siempre de alabar a Dios en los buenos tiempos, ya que no sabemos de qué calamidades hemos sido librados?

Los términos hebreos tsaba' y majaneh, traducidos como “ejércitos”, “escuadrones”, “campamento” y “huestes”, atestiguan esa descripción (Éxo. 6:26; 7:4; 12:17, 41, 51; 14:19, 20; compara con Éxo. 13:18). Los hebreos se dividieron en unidades y marcharon como un ejército. Más tarde, Balaam vio desde las colinas de Moab que Israel estaba “acampando por tribus” (Núm. 24:2, NVI). Mientras tanto, “Moisés llevó consigo los huesos de José” (Éxo. 13:19). Este es un detalle muy importante del texto, y revela el cumplimiento de las promesas de Dios en respuesta a la fe de José, quien nunca perdió de vista la Tierra Prometida aun en medio del esplendor y los privilegios de Egipto. Pidió que sus huesos fueran llevados a la tierra de Canaán (Gén. 50:24, 25). Creía que el Señor visitaría a Israel en Egipto y lo llevaría a la tierra, como había jurado (Heb. 11:22). Cuando Israel llegó a Canaán, los huesos de José fueron sepultados en Siquem (Jos. 24:32). La columna de nube y la de fuego eran los signos visibles de la presencia de Dios entre su pueblo. El Señor habitaba allí y se comunicaba con ellos también desde la nube (Éxo. 14:24; Núm. 12:5, 6). El faraón reveló ahora los verdaderos motivos de su corazón. No estaba convertido y nunca se arrepintió de verdad. Su petición a Dios para que lo bendijera era una farsa, tal vez un autoengaño. Reunió a su ejército y fueron tras sus esclavos fugitivos. ¡Cuán totalmente cegado por el pecado estaba realmente este hombre! Cuando el pueblo vio venir al ejército del faraón, pronunció palabras y expresó sentimientos de los que se harían eco más de una vez: “¿No había sepulcros en Egipto, que nos sacasen a morir en el desierto? ¿Por qué has hecho así con nosotros al sacarnos de Egipto?” (Éxo. 14:11). Aun después de haber visto manifestaciones tan dramáticas del poder de Dios, que incluyeron el libramiento de sus hijos primogénitos, el pueblo seguía mostrando una asombrosa falta de fe. Piensa en la última vez que te enfrentaste a una situación terrible. ¿Cuál fue tu primera reacción: fe en Dios o falta de ella? ¿Qué lecciones deberías haber aprendido de esa situación que podrían ayudarte la próxima vez que enfrentes otra?

46 So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was ill. 47 When this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. 48 So Jesus said to him, “Unless you[a] see signs and wonders you will not be lieve.”49 The official said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” 50 Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way.51 As he was going down, his servants[b] met him and told him that his son was recovering. 52 So he asked them the hour when he began to get better, and they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour[c] the fever left him.” 53 The father knew that was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” And he himself believed, and all his household. 54 This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.

John 4:46-54 ESV So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was ill. When this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. So Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.” The official said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” Jesus said to him, “Go; your son will live.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way. As he was going down, his servants met him and told him that his son was recovering. So he asked them the hour when he began to get better, and they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.” The father knew that was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” And he himself believed, and all his household. This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.

At first glance, the command to "honour your father and mother" seems simple—something we associate with childhood obedience and following the rules. But is that all it means?In this episode, we explore the deeper implications of this biblical command through the lens of apologetics. What does it mean to honour our parents as we grow into adulthood? How do we reconcile this command with moments like Jesus' interaction with Mary in the temple—or again at the wedding in Cana? Was His honour expressed through obedience, or was it something richer and more complex?Join us as we unpack the layers of this commandment, moving beyond mere compliance to discover a fuller picture of love, respect, and honour that endures across all seasons of life.

A @Christadelphians Video: ### SummaryIn this video, Stephen Hale discusses the first miracle of Jesus at the Wedding at Cana, where water was turned into wine. He explores the significance of this miracle, the roles of the characters involved, and the deeper meanings behind the actions and symbols presented. Hale emphasises that the miracle represents a transformation process, paralleling the spiritual journey of natural Israel and highlighting the importance of faith in recognising the true nature of Jesus as the Word made flesh.### Highlights-

Send us a textMitchell's fascinating exploration of "Bethany across the Jordan" takes listeners on a geographical detective journey through the Holy Land to uncover where Jesus' baptism truly occurred. What begins with four simple words from Scripture opens up a world of historical investigation that challenges conventional wisdom about this pivotal moment in Christian history.By carefully analyzing the timeline in John's Gospel, Mitchell presents compelling evidence for a northern baptism site near the Sea of Galilee. The rapid succession of events—Jesus returning from temptation, gathering disciples, and attending a wedding in Cana "on the third day"—makes a southern location geographically implausible. A person simply couldn't travel 80+ miles on foot while gathering followers in such a short timespan.The northern theory gains additional significance when connected to other key moments in Jesus' ministry. This region near Mount Hermon is where Jesus later proclaimed his identity at "the gates of Hades" in Caesarea Philippi and was transfigured before his disciples—both featuring divine declarations of Jesus as God's Son, mirroring what occurred at his baptism.Mitchell's approach exemplifies thoughtful biblical scholarship that considers practical realities while remaining faithful to the text. He reminds us that figures like John the Baptist weren't stationary but traveled extensively in their ministry, opening up new possibilities for understanding these sacred locations.Whether you're a dedicated Bible scholar or simply curious about historical Christianity, this episode will transform how you read familiar passages and inspire you to look beyond conventional interpretations to discover deeper meaning in Scripture.Support the showSupport our ministryCheck us out at purefaithliving.comContact us at purefaithliving.com/contactFollow us on twitter @purefaithlivingFollow us on Facebook at Pure Faith Podcast

En esta semana, nos encontramos con Israel en un momento crucial. Los israelitas han cruzado milagrosamente el Jordán y están a las puertas de Jericó, la primera gran batalla en la conquista de Canaán. Pero antes de que Dios les entregue la victoria, les pide que se preparen de manera espiritual.¿Lista para la acción?

  «Así que no se rebelen contra el Señor, ni tengan miedo de la gente de esa tierra. ¡Nosotros nos los comeremos como si fueran pan! No les tengan miedo, que el dios que los protege se ha apartado de ellos, y con nosotros está el Señor» (Números 14:9) Hace miles de años, Dios le dijo al pueblo de Israel que subieran y ocuparan la Tierra que les había dado. Les ordenó que la tomaran por la fuerza, y sin temor de los impíos que moraban allí. Él todavía nos dice lo mismo. Dios aún desea que como Su pueblo, tomemos la buena Tierra que nos ha dado. Él todavía trata de que usemos el poder que nos ha dado para echar al maligno fuera. Esta Tierra no le pertenece al diablo, le pertenece a Dios (Salmos 24:1). El diablo sólo se instaló en este mundo, y ha tomado el control porque nosotros los creyentes no se lo hemos impedido. Ése es nuestro trabajo. Jesús le quitó todo derecho legal a Satanás la misma mañana de la Resurrección. Luego nos encomendó que mantuviéramos vigente la derrota de Satanás. Las Escrituras dicen que Jesús se ha sentado a la diestra de Dios, y está esperando que Sus enemigos sean puestos por estrado de Sus pies (Hebreos 10:12-13). ¿Comprendes lo que eso significa? Quiere decir que Jesús espera que le demos un puntapié al diablo y a sus secuaces y los echemos fuera de los asuntos de este mundo. Jesús está esperando que nosotros tomemos la victoria que Él obtuvo en el Calvario y que la establezcamos en esta Tierra. Pero así como Israel tuvo que subir físicamente a tomar la Tierra de Canaán, tú y yo tenemos que subir en el Espíritu si queremos establecer el dominio de Dios sobre la Tierra. Tendremos que actuar. ¡No podremos hacerlo sentados! Escucha: es posible que no lo sepas, pero estamos en guerra. Estamos en una batalla espiritual y estamos ganando. En realidad, si comprendieras lo que ya está establecido en el mundo espiritual, te reirías del diablo cada vez que te mostrara su rostro. Por lo tanto, si el diablo hoy ejerce control sobre algún aspecto de tu vida, de tu iglesia o de tu comunidad, levántate en el Espíritu por medio de la fe, de la oración y de la Palabra, y comienza a recuperar ese territorio. No temas. El diablo no tiene defensa alguna. No tiene ningún arma que pueda prevalecer en contra de ti. El Señor está contigo. ¡Levántate en el Nombre de Jesús y recupera la Tierra!

Se estima que más de mil quinientos millones de personas sintonizaron el mundial de Catar en 2022. Una de las finales más emocionantes de la copa mundial fue el partido entre Francia e Italia en 2006. Más de setecientos millones de espectadores presenciaron cómo el partido permaneció empatado desde los primeros minutos hasta el final, lo que condujo a una prórroga.Fue entonces, cuando apenas restaban diez minutos para concluir la prórroga, que ocurrió algo extraordinario. Zinedine Zidane, el destacado jugador francés que cuatro años atrás había llevado a su país hacia la victoria, se aproximó al defensa italiano Marco Materazzi y le propinó un fuerte cabezazo en el pecho.Materazzi cayó al suelo, el árbitro mostró la tarjeta roja y Zidane tuvo que abandonar el partido. Este incidente puso fin a su carrera como jugador profesional. Los entendidos en materia de fútbol suelen hablar del rico legado y los numerosos triunfos de Zidane. Pero el resto de nosotros, si es que reconocemos su nombre, solo recordamos el cabezazo.Un momento de indisciplina privó a Francia de su mejor jugador durante los momentos más cruciales del partido. La salida de Zidane fue triste, patética y tal vez fue el factor clave para que Francia perdiera la victoria en el mundial. Italia ganó en la tanda de penales 5-3.La tarjeta roja de Zidane nos recuerda que todas las acciones tienen consecuencias, ya sea que se lleven a cabo ante setecientos millones de personas, en la escuela o en el lugar de trabajo, o en la intimidad de nuestro hogar. Adán y Eva comieron del fruto prohibido, recibieron una tarjeta roja y fueron expulsados del Edén (ver Génesis 3). Moisés perdió el control frente a la roca y Dios le prohibió la entrada a Canaán (Números 20: 1-13). Siglos más tarde, Judas Iscariote traicionó a Jesús por treinta monedas y ello le costó la salvación y la vida.Un momento de indisciplina, una mala decisión puede hacernos perder aquello lo que nos hemos esforzado tanto. Por eso hemos de colocar cada momento de nuestras vidas, cada decisión, cada pensamiento, sentimiento y emoción en las manos de Jesús. Solo así aseguraremos el mejor resultado aquí en esta vida y en la eternidad. 

The Gospel of John Week 4 Scripture: John 2:1-22, Genesis 1:10 & 12, Isaiah 62:5, Isaiah 25:6-9 Today's study starts with the story of a wedding at Cana in Galilee and the text opens with “On the third day.”  The first day is Sunday, the second day of the week is Monday and the third day is Tuesday.  The wedding is happening on a Tuesday. Why is the wedding on Tuesday? The answer is because of what we read in Genesis 1:10 and 12 where God declared everything as good, not once but twice on the third day of creation and the rabbis said the third day is an especially good day - what a great day for marriages! So orthodox Jewish people have set their wedding dates on Tuesdays going back to Biblical times. Mary, Jesus' mother is at this wedding, too. They are most likely into the 4th or more day of the wedding feast. (They typically lasted a week or longer). And they run out of refreshment and Mary lets Jesus know they have run out of wine. Mary then tells the servants to “do whatever He tells you.”  This is a word for us today - to do what Jesus tells us. We are to listen and obey. Pastor considers the questions: “Isn't this a rather frivolous miracle? Why would Jesus for His first miracle make 150 gallons of wine?”  Let's take a look at this miracle in light of what the Old Testament Scriptures say and what the Jewish people believe: God speaks of Himself as being married to His people. God calls Himself the groom and He gives Himself for His bride (the children of Israel). We reading Isaiah 62:5 "For as a young man marries a young woman, so will your sons marry you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you." And the Bible talks of wedding feast banquets when Messiah comes. Isaiah 25:6-9 begins with:  “On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare     a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine—     the best of meats and the finest of wines. On this mountain he will destroy     the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations;     he will swallow up death forever.” These are a sample of the verses Jewish people knew and now Jesus performs His first miracle at a wedding! This is not a frivolous miracle - this is Jesus saying: “I am the Bridegroom. I am the One who provides everything you need. I am the One who brings in the wedding feast!”  This miracle points to Jesus as the Messiah! It is a dramatic declaration of Jesus' identity and purpose and going forth Jesus will continually refer to Himself as the Bridegroom and to His people as those who get to be invited to the wedding feast. Pastor shares other great insight into:     1.    Why it's important that the jars where stone and not clay pottery     2.    The use of the word “signs”     3.    The 7 miracles shared in the Gospel of John and how they show Jesus' identity and demonstrate He is the Messiah.     4.    The recent archeological discoveries that go back to the 1st century. Next in our text we read the story of the Temple cleansing where Jesus overturns money changing tables at the Temple.  John is the only gospel that has this story at the beginning of Jesus ministry, the other gospels have it at the end of His ministry. Pastor shares the perspective of there being 2 temple cleansing: 1 at the beginning and.another at the end of Jesus' ministry. Other interesting points     ⁃    The temple was to be a house of prayer - not a market place     ⁃    Money changing was being done where worship was supposed to be happening     ⁃    Tyrian Stater - 1/2 shekel temple tax     ⁃    Pastor shares a detailed description of the Temple in Jesus' day and does a dating of events in conjunction with the building of the temple and Jesus' ministry     ⁃    Pastor suggests a book by Jack Finnegan, “Handbook of Biblical Chronology” Our reading today ends with John 2:20-21 where we read that Jesus knows what is in our hearts. He can see into our very souls. We cannot con Jesus. He is the Living God come to earth and we cannot fool Him.   Pastor ends today's class with a look at the Feasts of the Lord celebrated by the Jewish people and how the festivals point us to understanding their connection to who Jesus is: The Fulfillment of each festival.

Many people have come to faith after reading only this book of the Bible.  Scholarly and archeological discoveries in recent decades give us new insight on details in the Gospel of John. We can now understand it as the most Jewish rather than the most “Gentile/Greek” of the Gospels, and when we do that we see many things that we missed before. Our 2 year study of the gospels is great for large group, small group or home group study and can be started at any time!

Miracles Week 8: Finding Thin Places In the eighth installment of our "Miracles" series, we delve into the concept of "thin places"—moments where God breaks into our world to reveal His love, power, and glory. These moments, though rare today, were abundant during Jesus' time on Earth, particularly through His miracles. ## **John 1:14** - The Incarnation as a Thin Place The sermon highlights the incarnation of Jesus as the ultimate "thin place." As described in **John 1:14**, "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us." Jesus' presence on Earth was a continual revelation of God's glory, bridging the gap between heaven and earth. ## Learning from Miracles The sermon focuses on two miracles that exemplify how we can cooperate with God to create these "thin places": ### **John 2:1-11** - Water into Wine - **Setting**: A wedding in Cana, where Jesus performed His first miracle by turning water into wine.- **Key Figures**: The servants, who filled the jars with water at Jesus' instruction, played a crucial role.- **Lesson**: The servants' obedience and trust in Jesus' instructions allowed them to witness and participate in a miracle. This teaches us the importance of making ourselves available to God, even when the task seems mundane or illogical. ### **Matthew 14:13-21** - Feeding the Five Thousand - **Setting**: A remote location where a large crowd gathered to hear Jesus.- **Key Figures**: The disciples, who distributed five loaves and two fish to feed thousands.- **Lesson**: The disciples' willingness to offer what little they had and follow Jesus' instructions resulted in a miracle. This illustrates that God can multiply our limited resources when we trust Him. ## Four Key Lessons on Creating Thin Places 1. **God's Desire for Our Involvement**: God wants us to participate in His divine work. As seen in these miracles, our involvement strengthens our faith and demonstrates that "we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength" (**Philippians 4:13**). 2. **As You Go Principle**: Miracles often occur in the midst of our daily lives. We must be sensitive to God's voice and embrace the opportunities He presents as we go about our routines. 3. **Offering What We Have**: Whether it's time, energy, or resources, offering what we have to Jesus allows Him to use it for His glory. 4. **Trusting Jesus**: Trust is foundational. Neither the servants nor the disciples knew Jesus' plans, yet their trust led to miraculous outcomes. We must trust Jesus with both our lives and our circumstances. ## Conclusion: Trust and Obedience The sermon concludes with a call to trust Jesus as the way to experience the ultimate "thin place"—a personal relationship with Him. By trusting in His sacrifice, we receive forgiveness and eternal life. This trust extends beyond salvation to every aspect of our lives, as we follow His lead and participate in His kingdom work. As we reflect on these lessons, let us strive to be available, obedient, and trusting, so that we may witness and partake in the miracles God desires to perform in and through us.

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchMIÉRCOLES, 16 DE JULIOLABIOS INCIRCUNCISOSCon frecuencia los israelitas parecían no poder o no querer comprender el propósito de Dios en favor de los paganos. Sin embargo, este propósito era lo que había hecho de ellos un pueblo separado, y los había establecido como nación independiente entre los pueblos de la tierra. Abrahán, su padre, a quien se diera por primera vez la promesa del pacto, había sido llamado a salir de su parentela hacia regiones lejanas, para que pudiese comunicar la luz a los paganos. Aunque la promesa que le fuera hecha incluía una posteridad tan numerosa como la arena del mar, no eran motivos egoístas los que iban a impulsarle como fundador de una gran nación en la tierra de Canaán. El pacto que Dios hiciera con él abarcaba todas las naciones de la tierra. Jehová declaró: "Bendecirte he, y engrandeceré tu nombre, y serás bendición: y bendeciré a los que te bendijeren, y a los que te maldijeren maldeciré: y serán benditas en ti todas las familias de la tierra". Génesis 12:2, 3. Al renovarse el pacto poco después del nacimiento de Isaac, el propósito de Dios en favor de la humanidad se expresó nuevamente con claridad. Acerca del hijo prometido el Señor aseguró que serían "benditas en él todas las gentes de la tierra". Génesis 18:18. Y más tarde el visitante celestial volvió a declarar: "En tu simiente serán benditas todas las gentes de la tierra". Génesis 22:18 (Profetas y reyes, pp. 272, 273). Las condiciones de este pacto que abarcaba a todos eran familiares para los hijos de Abraham y para los hijos de sus hijos. A fin de que los israelitas pudiesen ser una bendición para las naciones, y para que el nombre de Dios se conociese "en toda la tierra" (Éxodo 9:16), fueron librados de la servidumbre egipcia. Si obedecían a sus requerimientos, se verían colocados muy a la vanguardia de los otros pueblos en cuanto a sabiduría y entendimiento; pero esta supremacía se alcanzaría y se conservaría tan solo para que por su medio se cumpliese el propósito de Dios para "todas las gentes de la tierra". Las maravillosas providencias relacionadas con la liberación de Israel cuando escapó al yugo egipcio y ocupó la tierra prometida, indujeron a muchos de los paganos a reconocer al Dios de Israel como el Gobernante supremo. La promesa había sido: "Y sabrán los Egipcios que yo soy Jehová, cuando extenderé mi mano sobre Egipto, y sacaré los hijos de Israel de en medio de ellos". Éxodo 7:5. Hasta el orgulloso Faraón se había visto obligado a reconocer el poder de Jehová e instó así a Moisés y a Aarón: "Id, servid a Jehová", "y bendecidme también a mí". Éxodo 12:31, 32 (Profetas y reyes, p. 273). 

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchMARTES, 15 DE JULIOEL DIVINO "YO"Dios libró a Israel mediante extraordinarias manifestaciones de su potencia, y con juicios sobre todos los dioses de Egipto. "Y sacó a su pueblo con gozo; con júbilo a sus escogidos... para que guardasen sus estatutos, y observasen sus leyes". Salmo 105:43-45. Los rescató del estado de esclavitud en que se hallaban, para poder llevarlos a una buena tierra, que en su providencia había preparado para ellos como un refugio contra sus enemigos, a una tierra donde pudiesen vivir bajo la sombra de sus alas. Quería atraerlos a sí mismo, para rodearlos con sus brazos eternos; y les requirió que en retribución a toda su bondad y misericordia hacia ellos no tuviesen dioses ajenos ante él, el Dios viviente, y que ensalzaran su nombre y lo glorificaran en la tierra (Historia de los patriarcas y profetas, p. 346). Cuando los hijos de Israel cargaron todo su sufrimiento sobre Moisés, este se sintió muy afligido, y sintió deseos de murmurar porque el Señor tardaba en liberar a su pueblo. Todavía no estaban preparados para ser liberados. Tenían muy poca fe, y no estaban dispuestos a sufrir pacientemente y soportar con perseverancia sus aflicciones, hasta que Dios obrara para ellos una liberación gloriosa. "Jehová respondió a Moisés: Ahora verás lo que yo haré a Faraón; porque con mano fuerte los dejará ir, y con mano fuerte los echará de su tierra. Habló todavía Dios a Moisés, y le dijo: Yo soy JEHOVÁ. Y aparecí a Abraham, a Isaac y a Jacob como Dios Omnipotente, mas en mi nombre JEHOVÁ no me di a conocer a ellos. También establecí mi pacto con ellos, de darles la tierra de Canaán, la tierra en que fueron forasteros, y en la cual habitaron. Asimismo yo he oído el gemido de los hijos de Israel, a quienes hacen servir los egipcios, y me he acordado de mi pacto". Los hijos de Israel pasaron muchos años sirviendo a los egipcios. Solo unas pocas familias descendieron a Egipto; pero allí se convirtieron en una enorme multitud. Al estar rodeados por la idolatría, muchos perdieron el conocimiento del Dios verdadero y se olvidaron de su ley. Y se unieron a los egipcios en su culto del sol, la luna y las estrellas, y de animales e imágenes, obra de manos de hombres. Todo lo que rodeaba a los hijos de Israel había sido calculado para que se olvidaran del Dios viviente. Pero había entre los hebreos algunos que conservaron el conocimiento del verdadero Dios, Creador del cielo y de la tierra. Estos se lamentaban de que sus hijos cada día presenciaran las abominaciones de los idólatras que los rodeaban, y aun participaran de ellas para inclinarse ante las deidades egipcias, hechas de madera y de piedra, y ofrecer sacrificios a esos objetos inanimados. Los fieles se afligían, y en su angustia clamaban al Señor que los rescatara del yugo egipcio, que los sacara de Egipto para que pudieran librarse de la idolatría y de las influencias corruptoras que los rodeaban (Spiritual Gifts, t. 3, pp. 200, 201; parcialmente en La historia de la redención, p. 115).

Primero es reprendido por el faraón, y ahora su propio pueblo no hace más que maldecirlo. Así, pues, Moisés presenta su queja a Dios. En su amargura y decepción por el empeoramiento de las condiciones de Israel, le dice: “¿Por qué tratas tan mal a este pueblo? ¿Para esto me enviaste? Desde que me presenté ante el faraón y le hablé en tu nombre, no ha hecho más que maltratar a este pueblo, que es tu pueblo. ¡Y tú no has hecho nada para librarlo!” (Éxo. 5:22, 23, NVI). El descontento de Moisés con el Señor es obvio y comprensible en vista de la situación. La respuesta de Dios, sin embargo, es contundente. Él actuará, y de manera muy decidida. “Ahora verás lo que voy a hacer con el faraón” (Éxo. 6:1, NVI). Lee Éxodo 5:22 a 6:8. ¿Cuál es la respuesta de Dios a Moisés y qué importantes verdades teológicas se destacan aquí? Dios ya no solo hablará; ahora intervendrá poderosamente en favor de su pueblo. El Señor le recuerda a Moisés algunos hechos pertinentes: (1) Yo soy el Señor; (2) me aparecí a los patriarcas; (3) establecí mi pacto con ellos; (4) he prometido darles la tierra de Canaán; (5) he oído el gemido de los hijos de Israel; y (6) me he acordado de mi compromiso de darles la Tierra Prometida. Nótese la repetición del pronombre “yo” aplicado por Dios a sí mismo (vers. 2, 6): Yo, el Señor tu Dios, he hecho tal y tal cosa, y por eso puedes confiar en que yo haré por ti lo que te he prometido. El Señor proclama ahora solemnemente que hará cuatro grandes cosas por Israel porque él es su Señor viviente: (1) “Voy a quitarles de encima la opresión de los egipcios”; (2) “voy a librarlos de su esclavitud”; (3) “voy a liberarlos con gran despliegue de poder y con grandes actos de justicia”, y (4) “haré de ustedes mi pueblo; y yo seré su Dios” (Éxo. 6:6, 7, NVI). Estas cuatro acciones divinas aseguran y restablecen su relación con su pueblo. Dios es el sujeto de todas estas actividades, y los israelitas son los destinatarios de todos estos beneficios y de su gracia. Dios ofrece estos dones gratuitamente y por amor. Lo hizo entonces en favor de ellos y lo hace ahora en nuestro favor. ¿Qué otros personajes de la Biblia se quejaron ante Dios con buenas razones? ¿Por qué es correcto que a veces derrames tu alma ante Dios e incluso te quejes de tu situación? ¿Por qué, sin embargo, debes hacerlo siempre con fe y confianza? 

Finding Jesus in Unexpected Places // Jesus the Winemaker John 2:1-5 (ESV)“On the third day, there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus was also invited to the wedding with his disciples. When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, ‘They have no wine.' And Jesus said to her, ‘Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.' His mother said to the servants, ‘Do whatever he tells you.'”  John 2:6-12 (ESV)“Now there were six stone water jars there for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to the servants, ‘Fill the jars with water.' And they filled them up to the brim. And he said to them, ‘Now draw some out and take it to the master of the feast.' So they took it. When the master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom and said to him, ‘Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.' This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him. After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother and his brothers and his disciples, and they stayed there for a few days.” John 21:25 (ESV)“Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.” Isaiah 25:6-9 (ESV)“On this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine, of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined. And he will swallow up on this mountain the covering that is cast over all peoples, the veil that is spread over all nations. He will swallow up death forever; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, for the Lord has spoken. It will be said on that day, “Behold, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us. This is the Lord; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.” 2 Corinthians 3:15-18 (ESV)“Yes, to this day whenever Moses is read a veil lies over their hearts. But when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.” Jesus' Actions… Honored Others  Announced His Kingdom  Provided Joy

Was wine in the Bible just a calorie source—or something far richer? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. John Anthony Dunne, author of The Mountain Shall Drip Sweet Wine: A Biblical Theology of Alcohol, joins Dru Johnson to explore how wine and alcohol shaped ancient Israel's culture, theology, and imagination. Dr. Dunne traces how biblical wine reflected not only the scarcity and agricultural hopes of ancient life, but also a tradition of craftsmanship, connoisseurship, and divine blessing. Together they unpack why biblical wine wasn't just functional—it was symbolic of abundance, peace, and God's favor. From fermentation methods and ancient storage to the surprising case for white wine at the wedding at Cana, this episode challenges modern assumptions about alcohol in Scripture. Dunne explores why the biblical world viewed wine as inherently miraculous, why production was tied to the land promise, and how modern communion links us to Canaan's terroir in unexpected ways.

Stephanie welcomes back author Margaret Feinberg to explore Margaret's journey to better understand and personally experience the Holy Spirit, and share insights about how God's Spirit works in our everyday lives. Margaret's new book, "The God you need to know” invites us into a deep dive in the Person and Work of God's Holy Spirit. Many people think the Holy Spirit first appeared in Acts 2 (Pentecost), yet the Spirit has been active throughout the whole Bible. In the Old Testament, the Spirit is present from the very beginning, hovering over the waters in Genesis. The Holy Spirit empowers people in many diverse ways, such as giving wisdom to artisans like Bezalel or clothing Gideon with courage. Realizing this deepens our appreciation of God's ongoing presence and reminds us that spiritual experiences aren't limited to the extraordinary—they are woven throughout the ordinary. Margaret says, the story of the Spirit didn't start at Pentecost, and it doesn't only happen in dramatic moments. Where might you miss the Spirit at work in your daily routines? Margaret describes her research into how people experience the Holy Spirit, and discovered that there is no “cookie-cutter” approach. Some feel a nudge or inner voice, others recall Scripture, some sense physical warmth, and others have dreams or receive guidance in mundane activities. The Holy Spirit's creativity matches our unique personalities and learning styles. Together, Margaret and Stephanie wonder, How might God communicate with you in a way that matches your temperament? Are you overlooking His voice because you expect it to look a certain way? Margaret expands the definition of miracles from the spectacular to “the kindness of God on display.” She shares examples like God guiding someone home when lost or prompting a generous act. Sometimes miracles are obvious, but often, like at the wedding in Cana, they remain hidden to many—yet are miraculous all the same. So, together, they ask, What small moments in your life might be God's quiet miracles—His kindness breaking into your routine? Drawing from the story of Bezalel, Margaret points out the Spirit's role in empowering creativity. Making art, plans, connections, and even daily tasks can be inspired by God. We're all invited to “make” with the Spirit's inspiration, whether it's a beautiful loaf of bread or a supportive friendship. She prompts us to wonder, What is God inviting you to create or offer today? Margaret encourages us to pray simple prayers for the Holy Spirit's presence and guidance daily—paying attention to coincidences, inspirations, or “nudges.” While engaging with the Spirit may seem mysterious or even intimidating, it leads to freedom, peace, and transformation. She challenges each one of us: For the next week, ask, “Holy Spirit, help me notice Your presence today.” Journal what you sense, feel, or notice—especially in small ways. The Holy Spirit is alive and active—sometimes dramatic, often gentle, always personal. By lifting our expectations and slowing down to notice, we can discover God's kindness in new places and learn to walk more closely with Him, trusting that He meets us right where we are. Embrace God today, the God you need to know! MEET MARGARET FEINBERG Margaret Feinberg, one of America's most beloved Bible teachers, speaks at churches and conferences.

More about Margaret here: https://margaretfeinberg.com/  ABOUT “THE GOD YOU NEED TO KNOW” Discover answers to your biggest questions about the Holy Spirit--and invite the Spirit to move in your life in powerful, real, tangible ways. The topic of the Holy Spirit can be…well, spirited…and one that sparks passionate discussion, especially among the most devout religious circles. What does it mean to be filled with the Holy Spirit? Are spiritual gifts still relevant today? Was the move of the Holy Spirit reserved for a specific age in history – or is the Spirit active now? The book traces Margaret's personal search for the Holy Spirit's work in her own life, rooted in childhood experiences and theological study. She unpacks the Spirit's role in the lives of biblical figures like Gideon, David, Ezekiel, and Bezalel, showing how God's presence has never been limited to a single moment in history. “Over the last few years, I've embarked on a deep exploration of the Holy Spirit prior to Pentecost, Margaret writes. “When we simply skip forward to the displays of the Spirit at Pentecost, we miss the faithful ways the Spirit of the Living God has been present and active with people throughout history. That's why we must explore the Holy Spirit on the road to Pentecost. The Spirit is not just the God we want to know; this is the God we need to know.” Everyone has questions about the Holy Spirit. If faith in Jesus provides my connection to God, then what role does the Holy Spirit play? How is the Spirit part of my day-to-day relationship with Christ? And why doesn't the Spirit's work play out in my life the way it seems to in the Bible? Why do other believers seem to have a connection to the Spirit, and I don't? Even longtime Jesus followers can feel stymied and confused. In The God You Need to Know, Margaret Feinberg, the bestselling author of Fight Back with Joy and Scouting the Divine, takes you on a journey through the Old Testament on the road to Pentecost to find answers to your burning questions about the Spirit. You will discover: The Spirit still working powerfully in unexpected places How to respond to spiritual promptings that often go ignored A deeper understanding of the Spirit's role in biblical events, especially the Old Testament How to encounter the Holy Spirit in fresh and practical ways Spiritual renewal through companionship with God The Holy Spirit's appearance on the Day of Pentecost was not a grand debut; it was the culmination of the Spirit's work since the beginning of time. You can experience a vibrant life with the same powerful flame. It's time to discover the God you need to know.
