“The Lord's portion is His people.” — Deuteronomy 32:9 How are they His? By His own sovereign choice. He chose them, and set His love upon them. This He did altogether apart from any goodness in them at the time, or any goodness which He foresaw in them. He had mercy on whom He would […]

“Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live!” (Deuteronomy 30:19 NLT) When I first became a Christian, I decided that I would somehow find a way to live in two different worlds. I was planning to hang out with my old friends and still be a Christian. For a time, I felt as though I were in a state of suspended animation. I wasn’t comfortable with my old buddies, but I wasn’t quite comfortable with the Christians, either. So, I decided to be Mr. Solo Christian. I even said to my friends, “Don’t worry about me. You’re thinking that I’ll become a fanatic and carry a Bible and say, ‘Praise the Lord.’ It will never happen. I’m going to be cool about this. I won’t embarrass you, but I’m going to believe in God now.” However, as God became more real to me and I began to follow Him more closely, He changed my life and my outlook. As a result, my priorities began to change. On your Christian journey, you’ll find that there are people who will discourage you from growing spiritually. They’ll say things like, “I think it’s good that you’re a Christian. I go to church too—at Christmas and Easter and for weddings. But you’re getting a little too fanatical. You brought a Bible to work the other day. That’s going a little too far. We were so embarrassed. You’re no fun anymore. We’re glad you’ve made changes in your life, but we’re afraid that you’re going to become too extreme.” When you’re faced with people like this, you have the choice either to do what God wants you to do or to go with the flow. You’ll find that there are consequences for each option. Deuteronomy 30:19 says, “Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live!” (NLT). Choosing life includes choosing people who encourage you to live the life God offers. The apostle Paul’s instructions in 1 Thessalonians 5:11 are clear: “So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing” (NLT). The believers who take those instructions to heart are the ones we should be surrounding ourselves with. The Christian life is a challenge. The people who recognize that and offer words of comfort, wisdom, and encouragement along the way are extremely valuable resources. They counteract the negativity and discouragement that others throw our way. Are you going to let people hold you back? Are you going to let people discourage you from wholehearted commitment to Jesus Christ? Reflection question: Where can you find encouragement and support in your walk with Christ?

Psalm 4 Psalm 134 Deuteronomy 6:4-7 Prayer Requests to psp@sqpn.com

Have you ever felt invisible — like your prayers were bouncing off the ceiling, and even God had gone quiet? As our daily prayer and devotional remind us, In those moments of deep loneliness or misunderstanding, it’s easy to believe that God has forgotten you. But Isaiah 58:9 offers a promise we can cling to: when we call, the Lord answers; when we cry for help, He says, “Here am I.” Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, shares a personal story of feeling isolated after a painful workplace conflict. The tension left her feeling unseen and rejected, not only by her coworkers but even, for a time, by God. Yet when she brought her hurt and bitterness honestly before Him, everything changed. The situation didn’t resolve instantly, but God’s presence brought peace. His silence, she discovered, was not His absence. The Hebrew word for “answer” in this passage means to respond or pay attention. That means when you pray, God is not distracted or distant. You have His full attention. Even when you can’t hear His voice or sense His hand at work, He is near — fully aware of your pain, your prayers, and your needs. If you feel forgotten today, take comfort in this truth: God sees you. He hears you. And when you call, His loving response is always, “Here am I.” Today's Bible Reading:“Then you will call, and the Lord will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I.” – Isaiah 58:9

Welcome to Day 2731 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theology Thursday – The Divine Council Worldview and the Nations: A Biblical Perspective Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2731 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2731 of our Trek.   The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Our current series of Theology Thursday lessons is written by theologian and teacher John Daniels. I have found that his lessons are short, easy to understand, doctrinally sound, and applicable to all who desire to learn more of God's Word. John's lessons can be found on his website   theologyinfive.com  . Today's lesson is titled The Divine Council Worldview and the Nations:  A Biblical Perspective.    The Divine Council Worldview, championed by scholars like Dr. Michael Heiser, offers a fascinating lens through which to interpret the biblical narrative. This worldview posits that Yahweh, the God of Israel, presides over a council of lesser divine beings who were assigned to govern the nations. This podcast explores the key aspects of how this worldview explains the relationship between the divine council and the nations.    The Disinheritance of the Nations    A pivotal moment in the Divine Council Worldview is the incident of the Tower of Babel, described in Genesis Eleven verses one through nine. Humanity's attempt to build a tower reaching the heavens was seen as an act of rebellion against Yahweh. In response, Yahweh confused their language, causing them to scatter across the earth. According to this worldview, this event led to the disinheritance of the nations, as articulated in Deuteronomy thirty-two verse eight and nine.   The passage suggests that the Most High divided the nations and assigned them to be governed by lesser divine beings, while retaining Israel as His own portion.    “When the Most High assigned lands to the nations, when he divided up the human race, he established the boundaries of the peoples according to the number in his heavenly court.[a]  “For the people of Israel belong to the Lord; Jacob is his special possession. ” (Deuteronomy thirty-two, verses eight and nine) Psalm 82: Judgment of the Gods    Psalm eighty-two is a critical text for understanding the Divine Council Worldview. In this Psalm, Yahweh stands in the divine assembly and judges the ‘gods' for their failure to administer justice and righteousness among the nations. These divine beings are condemned for their negligence and are warned of their eventual demise.    God presides over heaven's court; he pronounces judgment on the heavenly beings:  “How long will you hand down unjust decisions by favoring the wicked?    I say, ‘You are gods; you are all children of the Most High.  But you will die like mere mortals and fall like every other ruler.'”    (Psalm...

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores Day 103 from the "Gate of Remembrance" in the Orchos Tzaddikim, emphasizing how servants of a king perform tasks with utmost speed, focus, and dedication—turning off distractions and channeling all their energy into fulfilling the king's needs. He draws parallels to serving Hashem, urging listeners to approach mitzvot with the same intensity: expressing gratitude meticulously, performing actions with grace and diligence, and investing in the highest quality items, like the finest menorah or mezuzah, as a true expression of love for God. Using the analogy of carefully selecting flowers for a spouse rather than grabbing anything haphazardly, Rabbi Wolbe stresses that mitzvot are not mere obligations but profound demonstrations of devotion, done lovingly and wholeheartedly without shortcuts or indifference.He categorizes mitzvot into three aspects: those of the heart, performed purely for Hashem without ulterior motives; those involving the entire body, such as physically engaging in prayer (Shuckling) or shopping for Shabbos to immerse oneself fully; and physical actions like shaking the lulav or sitting in a sukkah, which still require intentional focus beforehand. Rabbi Wolbe highlights the Talmudic teaching to expend up to a third of one's resources on perfecting a mitzvah, promising divine rewards far exceeding the investment when done sincerely. He warns against performing mitzvot for social recognition or personal gain, insisting all deeds be dedicated solely to Hashem's name.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 24, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on November 13, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

A Prayer to Know God is Faithful to Go Before Us by Erin H. WarrenGod is always one step ahead of us. In today's episode by Erin H. Warren, we look at Deuteronomy 31 and Moses’ charge to the Israelites before entering the Promised Land. We are reminded that God doesn’t send a messenger — He goes Himself. His presence leads, surrounds, and sustains us. Psalm 139 paints this same truth beautifully: God hems us in, behind and before, and His hand is upon us.Reference: Deuteronomy 31:8 Prayer: Lord, we know that you are faithful and that you go before us. So please open our eyes to see all the paths you have prepared for us. Please help us walk in confidence and not fear. Give us strength to walk in obedience to your word.

Our weekly Men Shiur has begun delving into how our Middot affect us and how to grow from it. We hit some amazing stories and concepts concerning gratitude. Also I am a bit more relaxed and loose by the Men class than other speeches so this maybe a bit of a ride!

Follow along with Bro. Cooper as he continues his study in the book of Deuteronomy

In today's episode of Open Our Bibles Together, we continue our journey through Deuteronomy with a powerful reminder of who God is, what He has done, and how we are called to remember. We'll step into the words of Moses as he prepares Israel to enter the Promised Land, and we'll uncover why God called them to destroy idols, how He provided for them in the wilderness, and why their inheritance was never about their own goodness but always about His faithfulness. Along the way, we'll wrestle with tough questions about God's judgment, learn why gratitude is the cure to forgetfulness, and see how even Jesus drew strength from these passages when He faced temptation. And as Moses retells the story of the golden calf, we'll be reminded of God's mercy that holds fast even when His people fail. As we move into November and begin preparing our hearts for Thanksgiving, it's hard not to think about gratitude. But here's the thing—it's not just a once-a-year tradition as we gather around the table. Gratitude is really about remembering. It's choosing to look back at what God has done and letting that shape how we see Him, how we see ourselves, and even how we look at the world around us. That's so good. So very good. Also, be sure to check out the show notes at mfahring.com for reflection questions that go deeper into today's study and include links to two previous gratitude-centered episodes: Thankful for God With Us + My Dad and Once Again Thankful for God With Us + My Dad.

When you have entered the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance and have taken possession of it and settled in it, 2 take some of the first fruits of all that you produce from the soil of the land the Lord your God is giving you and put them in a basket. Then go to the place the Lord your God will choose as a dwelling for his Name 3 and say to the priest in office at the time, “I declare today to the Lord your God that I have come to the land the Lord swore to our ancestors to give us.” 4 The priest shall take the basket from your hands and set it down in front of the altar of the Lord your God. 5 Then you shall declare before the Lord your God: “My father was a wandering Aramean, and he went down into Egypt with a few people and lived there and became a great nation, powerful and numerous. 6 But the Egyptians mistreated us and made us suffer, subjecting us to harsh labor. 7 Then we cried out to the Lord, the God of our ancestors, and the Lord heard our voice and saw our misery, toil and oppression. 8 So the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror and with signs and wonders. 9 He brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey; 10 and now I bring the first fruits of the soil that you, Lord, have given me.” Place the basket before the Lord your God and bow down before him. 11 Then you and the Levites and the foreigners residing among you shall rejoice in all the good things the Lord your God has given to you and your household. 8 So the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror and with signs and wonders. 9 He brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey; 10 and now I bring the first fruits of the soil that you, Lord, have given me.” Place the basket before the Lord your God and bow down before him. 

Todayin Ephesians 3, we're talking about the mystery of the church. The word mysteryis used at least six times in the New Testament to refer to the church that wasborn on the day of Pentecost. In the Old Testament, the Holy Spirit would comeupon people and anoint them to do special deeds, great works such as Samsondid. But in the New Testament, something new takes place. Something that washidden in the Old Testament. The Holy Spirit would not only come down upon thepeople and upon the church (Acts 2:1-4), but He would enter the hearts of thebelievers and dwell there and never leave.  TheHoly Spirit might be grieved (Ephesians 4:30), and He might be quenched (1Thessalonians 5:19), but the Holy Spirit will still be there. Our body is thetemple of the Holy Spirit, the temple of God. 1 Corinthians 6:19:20. My friend,we need to believe and understand this truth, this truth of the mystery of thechurch, being born on the day of Pentecost, is now God's agency, God'sinstitution that He is using to spread the Good News, the Gospel to let theworld know that by faith you can have a relationship with God through JesusChrist. The church is “according to theeternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord”.  Thisgreat mystery and truth was important to Paul (vv. 1-5). It was important tothe Gentiles that now they could be one with the Jews and be one in Christtogether (vv. 6-8). It was important to the angels (vv. 9-10).  And as we've been seeing through this chapter,it is also very important to the believers that today we should understand thisgreat truth. When God saved Paul, He deposited with him the precious treasuresof the Gospel truth (1 Timothy 1:11). Paul in turn committed these truths to othersand exhorted them to commit the truths to faithful men who would guard and sharethem (2 Timothy 2:2).  And in those apostolicdays, the truth of the church was being made manifest in such a way thateverywhere everyone went and they knew as they became a part of that local bodyof believers, the body of Christ, that they were a part of something specialand they had a plan and program. They had a mission to be on with God, and theyturned the world upside down for Jesus Christ (Acts 17:6). And in a very wicked,evil, cruel world, things changed because of the church.  Today,I believe that the same thing is happening again. I really believe in theselast days before Jesus Christ comes again. This great truth, the mystery of thechurch should be important to us today as we study through the Scriptures. Weknow that this “mystery” is the key to what God promised in the Old Testament.What Christ did in the gospels, what the early church did in the book of Acts, whatPaul and the other writers teach in the epistles, and what God will do asrecorded in the book of Revelation. God's program today is not the headship ofIsrael, Deuteronomy 28:1-13, but the headship of Christ over the church. Wetoday are under a different leadership, dispensation, if you want to call itthat, from that of Moses and the prophets. We must be careful not to confusewhat God has clarified.  Thereason so many churches are weak and ineffective because they do not understandwhat we have and what they have in Jesus Christ. This great truth concerning the church is not a divine afterthought. Itis part of God's eternal purpose in Christ (Ephesians 3:11). When we know this truth, we will have boldness and access with great confidenceinto the Holy of Holies, into the presence of God, and to go forward againstthe gates of hell with the message of Jesus Christ.  Oh,my friend, today, like Paul, we ask that you don't lose heart over what ourspiritual leaders and the people of God might suffer on behalf of sharing thisgood news with the others in the world. This passage of scripture shouldencourage us today to give our all to Christ, live for Him, and let His Gospelbe known to the world around us.

Message Take Aways:1. The Lord sent a message of future judgment and swiftly confirmed it reminding us of His goodness to graciously warn sinners and His faithfulness to fulfill His word—“I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn, turn from your evil ways! For why should you die, O house of Israel?” Ezekiel 33:112. The mistake of the man of God to believe a false testimony brought about a terrible consequence reminding us to test everything against the word of God—“Test all things; hold fast what is good.” 1 Thessalonians 5:213. The destruction of the man of God reminds of the inevitable misery that comes from disobeying the Lord reminding us to remain steadfast in the path of righteousness—“You shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.” Deuteronomy 5:33

“Underneath are the everlasting arms.” — Deuteronomy 33:27 God — the eternal God — is Himself our support at all times, and especially when we are sinking in deep trouble. There are seasons when the Christian sinks very low in humiliation. Under a deep sense of his great sinfulness, he is humbled before God till […]

A @Christadelphians Video: Description: The mountains of Israel or the West Bank as commonly known, could become a pretext for the invasion of Russia or the Gog. The Palestinians strongly support Russia. The Palestinian President may have laid the groundwork for the Russian or Gogian invasion into Israel.This thought-provoking and insightful Watchman Report examines one of the most critical locations in Bible prophecy: the Mountains of Israel. Join Merv Islip for an expositional study of Ezekiel 38 and 39, where this phrase is central to the prophecy of a latter-day invasion. This presentation explores the biblical, historical, and modern geopolitical significance of these highlands, which today are known as the West Bank. Discover the outstanding scriptural evidence for who truly owns this contested land and how current events are setting the stage for prophetic fulfilment.**Chapters:**00:00 - Introduction00:27 - The Prophetic Focus: Ezekiel 38 & 3901:45 - The Biblical Heartland: Cities of Central Israel02:17 - The Phrase "Mountains of Israel" in Scripture03:03 - Spiritual Significance of the Mountains03:35 - Defining the Territory: Joshua 1105:09 - Modern Context: The West Bank05:53 - The Future Kingdom: Ezekiel 3706:23 - Historical Israeli Settlement Policy08:12 - A Second Geographical Marker: "Midst of the Land"09:55 - Shifting Attitudes and Annexation Calls11:03 - A Pretext for Invasion: Prophetic Scenarios13:01 - Conclusion**Bible Verses Featured:**

In Session Nine, Paul continues instructing Timothy on how the church should function, once again focusing on elders. He addresses their responsibilities, how to handle sin among them, and warns against appointing leaders too quickly. We'll also explore our own role and response to church elders in light of these teachings.Verses Used:1 Timothy 5:17-181 Peter 5:1-51 Timothy 5:171 Timothy 5:19-21Deuteronomy 19:1-51 Timothy 5:22-25Discussion Questions:1. According to Scripture, what does it mean to “rule well” as an elder?2. 1 Timothy 5:17 says elders who rule well are worthy of double honor. In what practical ways can we and should we show honor to our church elders?3. How should elders who are caught in sin be dealt with? Why do you think this is?4. How should the church respond when church discipline occurs, whether it is an elder or another member of the body?5. What do 1 Timothy 5:24-25 mean, and what encouragement or warning do these verses hold for us?

In today's episode of The Atheist Experience, Justin (Deconstruction Zone) and Mike Briggs (Geology Daddy) tackle the nature of morality outside of religion, cosmological origins, and deep critiques of biblical literalism and theological consistency.Sam in FL promotes the "cult of X," defined by hedonism and lack of morality, claiming it is his faith. Recognizing him as a troll, the hosts insist on a clear argument for his specific God, noting he provides no philosophical substance. Larry in TX discusses secular humanism and theists' misperceptions of atheist morality. Mike stresses morality is internal, based on introspection and empathy, not divine authority. Justin suggests critiquing supposedly "objective" God-given morals using internal biblical examples (slavery, genocide). Hollis in WA, who is deconstructing, questions why God did not reconcile the fallen angels. Justin explains this is an ancient, widespread archetypal theme across Near Eastern mythologies. The hosts clarify that the Satan-as-fallen-angel idea developed much later, noting the biblical inconsistency that other fallen angels are imprisoned. Ahmed in Germany questions the cause of the Big Bang and the need for a creator, citing suffering as a potential test. Mike explains that quantum fluctuations in a vacuum might spontaneously produce universes, noting the Big Bang may not be the beginning. The hosts challenge the test premise and expose the God of the Gaps fallacy. Marilyn argues "we're all gods" because we are the image of God and claims atheists are closer to the truth than Christians who require a master. Mike challenges her ambiguous definition of "God" and points out the contradiction in her simultaneous belief in Jesus as *the* son of God. Justin criticizes her "perfect design" concept using common physical flaws (choking, needing glasses). Ulrich in Mexico claims veganism is wrong and that lacking connection to God "messes up your mind." Justin demands substantive evidence for his God rather than mere complaint. Using internal biblical critique, Justin pressures O Rick on the moral acceptability of Deuteronomy 22 (stoning non-virgins) and 1 Samuel 15:3 (killing Amalekite babies). O Rick repeatedly evades the questions, exposing his theological inconsistency. Des in Jamaica, who is deconstructing, asks what prevents atheists from being evil, arguing fear of eternal consequence keeps Christians moral. Mike explains morality is an evolutionary adaptation driven by empathy and social cooperation. Justin argues Christian theology offers no moral consequence, as sins are forgiven solely by accepting Jesus, meaning moral behavior is irrelevant to destination. Billy in KY, an older atheist living in the Bible Belt, expresses his struggles with the chastisement and ridicule he faces in his community after deconstructing his Christian faith. Justin validates his position, noting that reading the Bible is often the key to deconverting believers. Thank you for joining us this week!

“The eternal God is thy refuge.” — Deuteronomy 33:27 The word refuge may be translated “mansion,” or “abiding-place,” which gives the thought that God is our abode, our home. There is a fulness and sweetness in the metaphor, for dear to our hearts is our home, although it be the humblest cottage, or the scantiest […]

During the Binge the Bible sermon series, we'll explore the first five books of the Bible — Genesis through Deuteronomy — helping you see God's Word as one connected story that shows who He is and how we can live it out.Each week, pastors from our teaching team will sit down to go deeper into Sunday's message and explore the big themes of Scripture together.In this episode, we're talking all about Leviticus.

Send us a textWould you think God's laws and instructions bring about rejoicing?  Why would God's laws and instructions bring about rejoicing?  On the podcast, Veronica begins discussing the section of Deuteronomy that lays out laws.  Worshiping God should not look like worship of false gods so God lays out how to worship Him.  These laws are meant to bless Israel and the people who come in contact with her. We discuss sacrificing, tithing, and slavery in this podcast. Our website is The Context and Color of the BibleWe are on Facebook - The Context and Color of the Bible | FacebookWe are on Instagram - @contextandcolorofthebibleWe are on YouTube - The Context and Color of the Bible - YouTubeMusic: Tabuk by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4453-tabukLicense: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

This Sunday we continue our study of Deuteronomy. The next section of chapters turns again to the ancient laws that shape Israel's life together, especially how God's people are to care for the orphan, the widow, the immigrant, and the poor.

Our Faith Question for this week is: How can we glorify God? And our Truth Bomb is: By loving Him and obeying His commands and laws. Deuteronomy 11:1  "You shall therefore love the Lord your God and keep his charge, his statues, his rules, and his commandments always."

Sermon Summary: “The Resurrection Life” (Mark 12:18–27) Preached by Coleton Segars Introduction: You Can Learn a Lot from an Argument Coleton began with a story about a moment of conflict in his front yard—when someone yelled at his wife, and he immediately stepped in to defend her. His point was simple but powerful: you can learn a lot from an argument. That's true in life, and it's true in Scripture. The argument between Jesus and the Sadducees in Mark 12 shows us a lot—not just about them, but about how our own beliefs about the resurrection shape the way we live today. In this passage, the Sadducees—religious leaders who didn't believe in resurrection—try to trap Jesus with a clever theological puzzle. They present an absurd story of a woman who marries seven brothers (following the Levirate law in Deuteronomy). Each brother dies without leaving children, and then they ask: “At the resurrection, whose wife will she be, since the seven were married to her?” (Mark 12:23) They aren't sincerely curious. They're mocking the idea of resurrection. But Jesus' response reveals two deep truths about life after death—and why those truths matter more than we realize. How We View the Resurrection Shapes How We Live “Are you not in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?” — Mark 12:24 Coleton explained that the Sadducees' disbelief in the resurrection shaped everything about their lives. Verse 18 says they were known as “those who say there is no resurrection.” Because they believed this life was all there is, they lived for this life only: chasing after wealth, status, and power. They looked down on others. They thought Jesus was foolish for believing in something beyond the grave. Jesus told them they were badly mistaken—but their mistake wasn't just intellectual. It was moral and spiritual. Their disbelief formed the foundation of how they lived. Coleton showed that this is always true:  What we believe about life after death determines how we live this life. He illustrated it with examples from history and world religions: Vikings believed dying bravely in battle led to glory in Valhalla—so they lived without fear. Certain Islamic traditions taught that dying in holy war brought heavenly rewards. Hinduism believe reincarnation depends on one's karma—so kindness and duty matter deeply in this life. Even for us, our view of the afterlife quietly directs how we spend our time, our money, and our energy. Coleton then described four common ways people misunderstand or misbelieve the resurrection today: “Never think about it” – Like the Sadducees, we live as if this world is all there is. “You only live once,” so grab what you can. “Think about it too much” – Some see this world as disposable and stop caring about God's purposes to renew it. “It won't be better” – Fear of the unknown or of death keeps us from living courageously like Paul, who said, “To live is Christ and to die is gain.” “Everyone goes to the same afterlife” – This leads to apathy about the gospel and the Great Commission. Coleton's conclusion was sobering: “Our current life is shaped by how we view the life to come.” So how should we view it? Life After Death Is True for Everyone—Whether They Believe It or Not “‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.' He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!” — Mark 12:26–27 The Sadducees didn't believe in resurrection, angels, or spirits. They only accepted the first five books of Moses as authoritative. So Jesus met them on their own ground—quoting from Exodus, one of Moses' books—to prove that even there, resurrection is implied. When God said, “I am the God of Abraham…”, He used the present tense. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had been dead for centuries—but God said He is their God, not was. That means they are alive to Him even now. Jesus' argument is brilliant—and undeniable:  Resurrection life is real, and it's true for everyone, believer or not. Coleton tied this to John 5:24–29, where Jesus says that one day all the dead will rise—some to eternal life, others to judgment. There is no “sleep of nothingness.” Everyone will live again. That truth should stir two responses in us: Urgency to share Jesus.  “If you truly believe everyone will rise—either to life or judgment—you'll want to tell people about Jesus.”  Coleton asked, “Do you have people in your life who don't know Him?” If we believe in a real resurrection, we can't stay silent. A call to make Jesus compelling.  “Is the way you follow Jesus making Him beautiful or unappealing?”  He warned that if Christians live joyless, judgmental, bitter lives, our witness turns people away from Jesus. Paul, though suffering, radiated peace and joy that made others want to know his Savior.  The question Coleton pressed was:  “Is your life a reason people would want to know Jesus—or a reason they'd want to reject Him?” Life After Death Will Be Better Than We Can Imagine “When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven.” — Mark 12:25 The Sadducees mocked the idea of resurrection by pointing out how complicated relationships would become. But Jesus' response essentially says: “You're assuming heaven works like earth—but it doesn't.” Coleton explained that Jesus isn't attacking marriage. He's saying that in the resurrection, all the brokenness and limitations of this life—our relationships, bodies, and systems—will be transformed. He quoted several theologians to help make the point: Mark Strauss:  “Jesus does not claim that the intimacy of earthly relationships will be discontinued in eternity. He only says there will be no need for the institution of marriage… all relationships will exist on an even higher plane.” D.A. Carson:  “The greatness of the changes at the resurrection will make the wife of seven brothers capable of loving them all… like a mother loves all her children.” Jesus' main point:  You think you'll face problems in the life to come—but you won't. It will be better than you can possibly imagine. Coleton addressed the common fears people have about eternity: The fear of forever (apeirophobia) The fear of boredom (thinking heaven will be dull or repetitive) The fear of losing relationships But Jesus says we'll be “like the angels”—not in form, but in fulfillment. Angels are fully satisfied in God. They sing not because they must, but because they want to. They've found the source of joy, meaning, and love—and they never tire of it. Coleton quoted David Guzik: “If it seems that life in the resurrection doesn't include some pleasures of life on earth, it's only because the satisfactions of heaven far surpass what we know here. No one will be disappointed with the arrangements.” And Paul in 1 Corinthians 2:9: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man, the things God has prepared for those who love Him.” CS Lewis put it beautifully: “This life is only the cover and title page. Now begins Chapter One of the Great Story, which no one on earth has read, which goes on forever, in which every chapter is better than the one before.” Coleton then told the story of the Christians during the plagues in ancient Rome. While the rich fled the cities, Christians stayed to care for the sick—even though many died doing so. Why? Because they believed in the resurrection. They knew death wasn't the end—it was the doorway. “This belief freed them,” Coleton said. “They didn't pursue death, but they weren't enslaved by fear of it either.” If we lived with that same confidence in the resurrection—believing the next life is better than we can imagine—we would live with joy, courage, and resilience in this one. Conclusion: The Resurrection That Changes Everything Everything Coleton said comes back to this:  How you view life after death will shape how you live right now. If you believe there is no resurrection, you'll live for this life only. If you believe there is one—but forget it's better—you'll live in fear. But if you believe in the resurrection Jesus promised—real, physical, glorious, and eternal—you'll live with purpose, peace, and courage. Jesus has accomplished this for us in His death and resurrection. “If Christ has not been raised, our faith is useless… But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead.” — 1 Corinthians 15:17–23 Because He lives, so will we. Discussion Questions How does your current view of life after death shape the way you live right now—your priorities, goals, and fears? Which of the four modern “views” of the afterlife that Coleton described do you relate to most? Why? How could believing that the resurrection is true for everyone change how you share your faith and how you live before others? When you think about eternity, what fears or doubts arise—and how do Jesus' words in Mark 12:24–27 address them? If you truly believed that the life to come is “better than you can imagine,” what would change in the way you approach suffering, relationships, and daily life?

Rev. Patrick Donohue

Join us this weekend as Pastor Jon continues our series, Discovering Deuteronomy, with a message titled “The Secret Things of the Lord” diving into Deuteronomy 29

God desires to command blessing into our lives, but it requires faithful obedience and proper stewardship. According to Deuteronomy 28, when we fully obey God's commands, we experience blessings in every area of life. The key principle is recognizing that everything belongs to God and we are merely stewards. There are four levels of blessing: the bag (scarcity), the barrel (daily supply), the basket (surplus), and the barn (commanded blessing). Generosity and faithfulness with what we have unlocks God's provision. The path to blessing begins with faithful obedience, starting wherever you are and being consistent with giving and stewardship.

This message takes us deep into the heart of what it means to raise children in the ways of the Lord, drawing from the foundational text of Deuteronomy 6:4-9. We're reminded that parenting isn't merely about managing behavior or building our own reputation through our children's accomplishments. Instead, it's about discipleship—pointing the next generation toward the glory of God. The message unfolds three essential commitments: loving God personally, leading our families intentionally, and linking arms congregation-ally. Before we can teach our children anything about faith, we must first establish our own vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ. This isn't something we drift into; it requires intentional devotion, time in prayer, and consistent study of God's Word. The ancient Jewish practice of binding Scripture to their foreheads and hands serves as a powerful reminder that our faith should be so visible, so integrated into every aspect of our lives, that everyone around us—especially our children—knows we belong to the Lord. We're challenged to make our homes oases built on the foundation of Christ, incorporating family worship into the natural rhythms of our week, and seizing everyday moments—car rides, dinner tables, bedtime routines—as opportunities for spiritual conversations. This is the long view of parenting: not an event but a process of sanctification that requires patience, grace, and the constant awareness that we need God's mercy just as much as our children do.

Deuteronomy 11: The Faith We Hand Down Deuteronomy 11:1–7, 18–21, 26–28 (ESV) Pastor Sam Bay

Deuteronomy 5:12-15 NIV 12 “Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy, as the Lord your God has commanded you. 13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,14 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your ox, your donkey or any of your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns, so that your male and female servants may rest, as you do. 15 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and that the Lord your God brought you out of there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. Therefore the Lord your God has commanded you to observe the Sabbath day.

Pastor Nicoletti returns to Deuteronomy, talking about “Responsibilities in Both Directions” from Deuteronomy 21:15-21.
