Pastor Leah Klingseis reflects on Psalm 139, showing how God's intimate knowledge of us leads to the courageous prayer, “Search me, O God,” and the comfort that His love is fully informed and unwavering. Drawing from J. I. Packer, she emphasizes that God's care never falters because He knows us completely.

On the night before His death, Jesus shared intimate words with His disciples—promises meant to anchor their hearts through fear and uncertainty. In John 14:22-31, He speaks of the Helper, the Holy Spirit, the peace that the world cannot give, the call to obedience rooted in love, and the hope of an eternal home with the Father. In this message, Matthew Hernandez reminds us that these Passover promises still hold true today: Help from the Spirit, Obedience born of love, Peace that transcends trials, and an Everlasting reality beyond the present. These are Jesus' final words of hope for all who believe in Him. Are you holding onto temporary comforts—or to the promises of Christ?

In response to Ruth's request, Boaz went to the gate to find the nearest kinsman to organise the purchase of Naomi's land as well as Ruth's redemption. When the closest kinsman was unable to redeem, Boaz was glad and willing to acquire Ruth as wife. Through them God provided Naomi a son, a beautiful illustration of God's grace extended to all by the Gospel.

Scarlet Thread #7 David (1 & 2 Samuel)

The question of Israel's chosenness isn't abstract - it's foundational.  If God's covenant with Abraham is conditional, then Israel's future and even our own assurance in Christ are uncertain. But if it's unconditional, then God's faithfulness to Abraham secures hope for us all. In this episode, Ron and Matt Davis trace the Abrahamic covenant from Genesis 12, 15, and 17. They unpack the ancient covenant-cutting ceremony, the unconditional nature of God's promise, and how the Mosaic covenant fits alongside it.  They also show how the New Testament reaffirms - not erases - God's oath to Abraham, and why that matters for both Jews and Gentiles today. With analogies of trust funds and house rules, they bring clarity to common misunderstandings. God's covenant stands not because of human performance but because of His promise. And that means His faithfulness to Israel is the same faithfulness we depend on in Jesus. Key Takeaways God initiated and ratified the Abrahamic covenant alone - it's unconditional. Genesis 12–17 reveals a promise of people, place, and purpose. The land boundaries are literal, not symbolic. Circumcision is the covenant sign, not its source. The Mosaic covenant governs life in the land but does not annul Abraham's promise. The New Testament celebrates - not cancels - the Abrahamic covenant. God's gifts and calling are irrevocable (Romans 11:29). Chapter Markers 00:00 – Welcome and framing the question 05:10 – Genesis 12: God's call to Abram 13:20 – Genesis 15: Cutting the covenant 28:15 – Genesis 17: Everlasting covenant and circumcision 41:00 – Mosaic covenant vs. Abrahamic covenant 55:30 – Genesis 22: Binding of Isaac and covenant confirmed 1:05:10 – New Testament voices: Galatians, Romans, Hebrews 1:18:00 – Analogies: trust funds, house rules, and irrevocable promises 1:28:00 – Final reflections and what's next God's covenant with Abraham is unconditional, everlasting, and still active. It anchors Israel's destiny and secures the hope of all who trust in the Messiah.

Jeremiah 31:31,33 Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a NEW COVENANT with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

Peter Thiel of Palantir is hosting a lecture series on the Antichrist in San Francisco between September 15 and October 6, 2025. Entirely secretive, the talk is put on by Acts 17 Collective, referring to the Biblical book of Acts wherein we read about how the divine being is not like material things (gold and silver) but instead something far more valuable. Is this ironic or intentional? Many see this as the fulfillment of prophecy, but perhaps it is the fulfilling of pop-culture prophecy instead. Perhaps technocrats are playing and preying on 4 billion Christians and Muslims to run a scenario designed to strip away faith in the divine and parlay it into technology. A satirizing of eschatology? The tech-bros believe that God messed up and man can fix it by replacing organic creation with synthetics. Everlasting life can be achieved through gold and silver (material means) which will extinguish the real spiritual nature of mankind - the true gold that is ‘Christ' consciousness - and replace it with antichrist consciousness. In the process, vampires like Thiel will feed on your corpse. True eternal life begins with recognizing death and choosing to make the world a better place anyways rather than becoming a nihilist. It is the choice of Christ consciousness and of faith in what lies beyond. One often overlooked detail of the technocracy is the apparent obsession with homosexuality, transgenderism, and Judaism. Consider the gay technocrats of Thiel, Yuval Harari, Sam Altman, and the debated sexuality of Alex Karp. All but Thiel are also Jewish, as is Larry Ellison and Curtis Yarvin, the man giving JD Vance many of his philosophical ideas. In fact, Thiel and Yarvin created Vance and influence him through their Dark Enlightenment philosophy, which wants to replace governments with a techno-monarchy equivalent to the Christian concept of a NWO. Are their Homosexual practices recycling sexual energy to create synthetic life? Homosexuality is also a rejection of God's creation, which is why so many Jews embrace not just homosexuality but the entirety of LGBTQ. People like Sam Altman have placed the hexagram into his ChatGPT logo while he has unveiled an ORB device that is a machine which confirms your humanity. We need only recall Matthew 26 where the high priest Pharisees accuse Jesus of being the Son of God to which Jesus rejects such a notion and lectures them on the end of their monopoly over salvation. The tech-bros are the modern pharisees and they not only reject Christ, but intend to convince his followers to fight a Holy War, and then offer salvation from the destruction with their vampiric machines. Alex Karp has promised a 3-front war is coming and Larry Ellison did say that most of the advanced AI technology was coming from Herzliya Israel, not Silicon Valley, which would make it a brother to transgenderism which finds its home in Tel Aviv. If all of this is slightly more true then it means Israel is the beast and the Balfour Declaration of 1917 was the dragon giving power unto the same. This is probably why the Trump administration has given military roles to the tech-bros and held high-profile dinners for Silicon Valley technocrats who he is himself a slave too. Hence the cutting of his right ear as a result of an assassination attempt, which Biblically speaks to the servant of the high priest, which in the Church of Satan is MAGA.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Send us a textWe have established in previous episodes, that the Bible is God's word, inspired by God and is the standard which we must follow. If we do not follow what it says, we cannot please God. We noted that there are over 2,000 denominations that claim to be Christians yet teach something different from what the bible says. We noted that Jesus prayed that his followers would be united. We noted Paul's criticism of the Christians in Corinth who had divided up into different groups in the church. We learned that the church is a spiritual body of Christians, not a building. We learned when the church was established and where that first occurred. We noted when the prominent denominations were established. In this episode, we look at some other marks that matter concerning the Church. We read the entire chapter of John 17 which is Jesus' prayer to God concerning His apostles, what He taught them, the unity required of them and the way to achieve it. We begin reading various passages about the gospel, what it is and what one must do to obey it and be added to the Church of Christ. We note that these passages also tell us what we must do to be saved. We will need another episode to complete looking at these passages. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. There is a transcript provided for your convenience.

In John 13, we find Jesus on the eve of His crucifixion. As He shares His final moments with His disciples, the apostle John reminds us of the love of Christ—love that goes to the very end. This is not a shallow or fleeting affection, but a divine, eternal love: a love that is everlasting, exclusive, faithful, real, and sacrificial. This message reflects on the depth of God's love shown through Christ—love that began before time, love that endures through our failures, love that is fully real by the Spirit, and love that is ultimately proven at the cross. As we open Scripture together, we are called to remember, celebrate, and rest in the unshakable love of Jesus, a love that has no end and no equal.

Send us a textArnie, Fred and Glenn continue their discussion of why am I a member of the Church of Christ. We begin this episode by looking at a few passages that help us to determine where and when the Lord's Church would be established or started beginning in the Old Testament. We learn that it would be in what are described as the latter days and in Jerusalem. We move to the New Testament and talk about what both John the Baptizer and Jesus said when they expected the church or kingdom would come. We note that on Pentecost in Acts chapter 2, Peter quoted what Joel had prophesied about what would occur in the last days. We discuss a number of things that Acts chapter 2 reveals concerning Jesus and the Church that tells us exactly when and where the Lord's Church was established. We close out this episode by noting when, where and by whom the most prominent denominations were established. We encourage our listeners to examine the identifying factors of the Lord's Church and make changes if you find you are not associated with the Church that belongs to Jesus Christ. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. There is a transcript of this Buzzsprout episode provided for your convenience.

Psalm 90

We frequently get caught up in the temporary things in our lives. The unseen things are ultimately more important; the eternal things, our service to the Lord and to others... those things that are everlasting should capture our focus.

“Everlasting consolation.” — 2 Thessalonians 2:16 “Consolation.” There is music in the word: like David's harp, it charms away the evil spirit of melancholy. It was a distinguished I honour to Barnabas to be called “the son of consolation”; nay, it is one of the illustrious names of a greater than Barnabas, for the Lord […]

Sunday Morning Sermon

Sermons from Old South Church in Boston

Salt was a prescribed by God as part of every sacrifice and offering. It was used in the making of the incense used at part of the rituals in the traveling tent Temple. Salt was also used as a binding agent when making covenants. God is making salt an important metaphor regarding preservation, holiness, seasoning, covenant, and sacrifice. A chapter-a-day podcast from Numbers 18. The text version may always be found and shared at tomvandewell.com.

Fr. Mike highlights the rich text in Isaiah 55 and 56 which reveals that the house of the Lord will not only be for the chosen people, but for all people. We also hear the story of how God mercifully restores Israel who is like an unfaithful bride. Today's readings are Isaiah 55-56, Ezekiel 16, and Proverbs 13:1-4.

Show NotesAnxious. Worthy. Ashamed. Nostalgic. Lonely. Secure. This is just a handful of emotions we observe in the Psalms—and in our day-to-day lives, too. In her newest women's Bible study, beloved author Christina Hergenrader guides readers through 25 psalms, digging into their genres, perplex emotions, glimpses of Jesus, and more. During the episode, Christina discusses what led her to explore emotions and the Psalms, what it's like sharing personal stories in the book, why Christians struggle to believe that our emotions matter to God, how she envisions readers will use Everlasting, and more.  QuestionsWhat led you to explore emotions and the psalms in Everlasting?You talk about reading the psalms with new eyes at this stage of life. What shifted for you?How did your experience with the Executive Coaching Program at the Townsend Institute influence your approach to this study?You share personal stories throughout Everlasting. Is it hard for you to be vulnerable when sharing these?What do the Psalms teach us about the relationship between faith and emotional honesty?How would you encourage someone who is afraid to be emotionally vulnerable with God?Was there a particular psalm that surprised you as you studied it?Why do you think that many Christians struggle to believe that our emotions matter to God?Talk about the Psalms of lament and exhaustion.If someone is feeling disconnected from their faith, what would you say to them?Why are Messianic Psalms important?What is the danger of leaving nostalgia unchecked?Why was it important for you to encourage readers to write their own psalms? How do you suggest they approach this?How do you envision readers using Everlasting?About the GuestChristina Hergenrader is busy doing what she loves. As a wife, mother, Christian teacher, and writer, she finds that life continues to keep her on her toes. After growing up in Galveston Island, Texas, Christina moved to Nebraska and attended Concordia University Nebraska, where she pursued her passion: education. With a teaching degree in hand, she moved to Houston, Texas, with her husband, Mike, to start her first job. At the end of the year, Christina was named “Teacher of the Year” by Houston's Lutheran School Association. She also received the “Young Alumnus of the Year” award from her alma mater, Concordia-Seward. Later, Christina earned a master's degree in Creative Writing. She also began writing and sharing devotions with her classes. Encouraged by their feedback, Christina submitted a manuscript to Concordia Publishing House. Since then, she has written several books, Bible studies and articles that have been published by CPH. When she's not writing, Christina loves spending time with her husband and four children, teaching, speaking to women's groups, traveling, photography, and spending time in prayer.

Daily Dose of Hope July 21, 2025   Scripture – Matthew 27:1-31   Prayer:  Almighty God, We come before you this morning, rejoicing in your powerful and holy name.  You are everything, Lord – Creator, Sustainer, Provider, the one who sees, the one who is most high, Mighty, Everlasting.  There are times that we are overwhelmed by your love and care.  How could the one who created all, also care about me?  God, we give you glory.  We are so grateful for how you involve yourself in our lives.  Most of all, we thank you for Jesus.  Oh, Lord Jesus, we give you glory, honor, and praise.  In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, a deep dive into the Gospels and Acts.  Happy Monday. Today, we are starting Matthew 27.  This is another long chapter that is filled with a lot of substance so we will once again take three days to walk through it.   Today's narrative about Judas' suicide is found only in Matthew. Judas betrayed Jesus for thirty pieces of silver. I'm not sure what Judas thought would happen when he accepted the bribe. Maybe Jewish independence? Maybe some extra favors? Maybe some sense of satisfaction? But when Judas actually sees that Jesus is arrested and condemned, a man he knew was totally innocent, Judas is filled with remorse. He sees the consequences of his decision.   In his anguish, Judas brings the silver back to the religious leaders. Maybe he was looking for some kind of reassurance or guidance but they gave him none. They were, after all, simply using him to get what they wanted. When Judas realizes this, he appears to be consumed by both remorse and anger and hurls the silver into the temple. It's then that he kills himself. It seems that Judas was overcome with remorse.   If you think about it, remorse produces extreme sorrow and grief. The goal is that remorse will lead to repentance and life change. This happened for Peter. He denied Jesus three times, a very significant betrayal. He must have felt incredible sorrow after what he did but he didn't stay there. He allowed God to move him to repentance. But Judas, for whatever reason, could not get past the grief. Maybe he was overcome with fear about what his life would be like when people discovered it was him. Maybe he didn't think he would be forgiven or he thought he would lose social position. Whatever it was, he couldn't get past it.   Friends, I don't know what you are dealing with right now, but there is ALWAYS hope. Things can be really, really bad. Life can feel totally dark. But God is light. With God, there is always hope for a better day. For some reason, Judas didn't think so but he was wrong. Jesus would have forgiven him and loved him, just as he did Peter.   Jesus loves you. Jesus will always forgive you. Your life is valuable. If you ever get to the point where the darkness feels all-consuming, reach out immediately. Reach out to me or to a friend. And don't forget that God is always there, just waiting, ready to listen and comfort. You are never alone.   In the next portion of today's chapter, we have Jesus going before Pilate.  Pilate was a Roman, the governor of Judea who was serving under Emperor Tiberias.  While Pilate has been mentioned outside of the Gospels by several secular writings of the time, he is certainly best known for his role in Jesus' crucifixion.  Let's dive into that.   In Matthew's Gospel, we get the impression that Pilate is reluctantly asking Jesus questions.  He doesn't feel that Jesus is guilty of anything and this is weighing on Pilate.  Then, his wife sends him an urgent message, begging Pilate to ensure that nothing is done “to this innocent man” for she had suffered a great deal in a dream because of Jesus.   Pilate ends up seeking a compromise. Knowing Jesus had been handed over by the religious leaders out of envy and spite, Pilate appealed to the crowds at the Passover, asking which “criminal” should be set free, Jesus or Barabbas? Seeing Jesus as innocent, it appears that Pilate believes that surely the people will choose Jesus over the murderous zealot, Barabbas.  But they don't.  The Jewish leaders convinced the crowd to ask for Barabbas to be released rather than Jesus.    Pilate gives in to political pressure.  He knows Jesus is innocent.  Pilate, exasperated, declares that he is “innocent” of Jesus' blood but then he hands Jesus over to be flogged and crucified.  He did what was easy, not what was right.  And Pilate will be forever remembered as a leader who chose the expedient route, rather than the one with integrity.  He is immortalized in the Apostles' Creed and remembered by Christians around the globe when we say that Jesus “suffered under Pontius Pilate.”   The final portion of today's Scripture has the Roman soldiers mocking Jesus.  This was one more form of punishment and humiliation before the ultimate torture instrument of the cross.    More tomorrow.   Blessings, Pastor Vicki      

This is message 59 in the Isaiah series. Isaiah 63:1-19 God acts in righteousness and mercy to make His name known. He judges sin, redeems the repentant, and keeps His promises not because anyone deserves it but because He is holy, faithful, and true. Every work he performs point back to Himself, and every act of deliverance declares His glory. Even when people fail, His purpose stands. He will not be forgotten. He will make Himself an everlasting name.

Send us a textFor this episode of Brewstilled, we're entering the final timeline for the Parallel Gridiron. In this last timeline in our exploration, we're visiting an alternate NFL reality in where Don Shula crafted the Miami Dolphins into an everlasting dynasty. It's an alternate NFL world that's unique, but also plausible given Don Shula's record with the Miami Dolphins. Of all the dynasties in the Parallel Gridiron, the one created by Don Shula and the Miami Dolphins challenges the realms of time and space. I'll discuss this wild timeline with a Hazy IPA from Masthead Brewing as the beer pairing. 

Please join us on the cruise of a lifetime. Steven Harper and Kerry will lead a cruise through the west Caribbean, leaving from Miami. The ports will be fantastic, and they will each give lectures on the New and Everlasting, or Abrahamic Covenant, and will also have some panels together. Go to https://restorationtravels.com/nec-cruise/ and join us now!Please leave a comment about your ideas about the format for our Old Testament year. In this episode Kerry and Julianne discuss Section 77 and what it teaches us about the Book of Revelation and visions about the end of the world. They talk about the context for Joseph Smith getting answers about the Book of Revelation. They discuss the similarities between Ezekiel's vision and John's and Nephi's. They talk about the beings that are seen, the elders that praise God, the book that John sees, and the rich symbolism in Revelation. They then present a special separate episode where Kerry addresses a topic he has received a lot of questions about. They talk about God's anger. They try to answer questions about why the scriptures talk about God being angry, and what that means for us and our anger. They also talk about how God's anger and how it works to help and bless and change His people. They look at divine violence in the scriptures and how we can think about that and see God's love in it. They grapple with this question for some time, trying to provide answers that can make a difference in our life. We are grateful for our executive producers, B. Fisher and K. Bradley, and for all our generous and loyal donors. We are also very grateful for all our Patreon members.
