Pastor Mike Neglia invited me to The Expositor's Collective to discuss my recently published book:Christ's Scope and Scepter: His Word, His WorldWith his permission, I've slightly edited it and chopped it up in a good way...not like the way the Quadriga chops up the Word of God.Speaking of chopping things up that shouldn't be chopped up, we discuss the continuity between a Christocentric interpretation of the Word and a Christocentric interpretation of the world. For me that has taken me on an adventure in Christian Education, Spanish lay preaching in church, and healthcare chaplaincy. This conversation scratches the surface on issues covered more in depth in my book. Don't just take up and listen for my spicy, confessional take on the pre-critical Quadriga. Stay for the encouragement to join the ranks of lay ministers in church and chaplains in healthcare. The harvest is ripe and the Christocentric laborers are few!

In this Bible Study, Dave covers 60 verses; from Leviticus 6.8 - through the end of chapter 7. In this segment we see additional directions given for the priests as it relates to the six different offerings. In doing this, Dave goes through and does a quick review of each of the six offerings outlined in Leviticus 1-7: the Burnt Offering, Grain Offering, Sin Offering, Guilt Offering and the Fellowship Offering. Its a long study, but it wraps up this first segment of the book of Leviticus.

Leviticus 05.1-13 Bible Study - Sin Offering (Part 2)In this Bible study, we look at the 2nd half of the Sin Offering as outlined in Leviticus 5.1-13. The Israelites were required to perform a “sin offering” if they failed to do something that was required, such as failing to give a testimony, dealing properly with ritual uncleanness, or fulfilling an oath. We also look at the “sin offering” as the “purification offering” asking why a woman who just gave birth would be required to give a “sin offering?” A key verse in this passage is Leviticus 5.5 in which the text tells us that confession is key to the process. OUTLINE:01:45 - What is Iron Sheep Ministries? 07:04 - Outline of the talk: 5.1-6 Failure to do something that was required: - v1 - Failure to give testimony, which could prevent justice from being carried out. - v2-3 - Failure to deal properly with ritual uncleanness, which could lead to the Lord's tabernacle being defiled.- v4 - Failure to fulfill an oath, which would result in the Lord's name being profaned. In any of the above. ONCE they realized their guilt there were two things they had to do.- v5 - Confess their sin- v6 - bring an offering to the Tabernacle so the priest could make atonement for them.5.7-13 - Three possible offerings, adjusted according to the economic situation of the person bringing the offering. EVERYONE has the opportunity to make a sacrifice, no matter how poor they were. 08:42 - Leviticus 5.1-1312:02 - Lev 5.1 - public charge to testify - it was considered a sin to see something and not say something. 14:25 - Lev 5.2-3 - “ceremonially unclean” - we see unclean as being related to public health or hygiene. A better way to think of a ceremony unclean vs clean is adequately prepared for worship.Rev 7.141 John 1.722:45 - purification offeringWORD STUDY: Ḥaṭṭā'āṯ חַטָּאָת (hea-taw-aw) - “sin, sin offering, purification from sins of ceremonial uncleanness.”Occurs 294x in KJV, 82x in Lev, 32x in Lev 4-5:13Lev 5.2-3Lev 12.1-8Luke 2.22-2430:29 - Lev 5.4 OathsMat 5.33-3732:50 - Lev 5.5 - confess - 35:55 - why is confession important? When you realize your guilt, the very first step, you must go through is to confess your sin before the Lord. He already knows what you did! But if you refuse to acknowledge your sin, then there is no room for the Holy Spirit to work in you. The Lord's discipline is a good thing.

The sin offering (also known as the purification offering) is covered in Leviticus chapter 4 as well as the first thirteen verses of chapter 5. In this study, we will look at the first portion, as outlined in Leviticus chapter 4. The sin offering was an offering required when an individual (or group) had sinned unintentionally. The offering atoned for the sin and cleansed them from unrighteousness. What is the application for this for us today? Do we have such an offering for our sin?Outline: 00:08 - Introduction to sin/purification offeringThis is a required offeringThese are also newly establishedThe Sin offering is atonement made for unintentional sin03:48 - Lev 4.1-2 - intro for all sin offerings04:45 - What is the definition of sin?

In this Bible study, we unpack Leviticus chapter three and the Fellowship Offering (also known as the peace offering).  The Fellowship Offering was designed to be a thanksgiving offering made in friendship and peace with the Lord.  The offering was a cow, goat or sheep (male or female) shared between; God, the priests, and the offerer.  While we no longer need to sacrifice animals to say thanks to God there is a lesson to be learned here.Outline: 01:24 - “Fellowship Offering” word study - šelem, שֶׁלֶם - “Peace offering, requital, sacrifice for alliance or friendship.  voluntary sacrifice of thanks.” “Shalom” - The root of this word is the same that is used for Shalom.  First use, Exo 20.24.  Lev 23.15-2104:00 - Leviticus 3 reading06:57 - Lev 3.1-6, “herd” Lev 3.6-16 “flock.”  Herd = cows, bulls.  Flock = sheep or goats.  Notice that V7-11 specifies a lamb (within the flock category) and V12-16 is goats (within the flock category).08.12 - Lev 3.1, 6 - “Male or female” - unique to the offerings this far - could offer a female animal for the fellowship offering.08:35 - Lev 3.1, 6 - “without defect” - similar to Lev 1:3&10 - burnt offering.  Lev 22.21-25 - the animal could be deformed or stunted.10:30 - Lev 3.2, 8, 13 - “lay your hand on the head of the offering.”  Same as Lev 1.2,8,13.  This is your animal, you own it, you are sacrificing it, you are giving it up, you are taking ownership of the sacrifice.  Rather then atonement for your sins, you are doing it in thanksgiving and honor to God.  “I know you will provide, I want to share this with you”12:00 - Lev 3.2, 8, 13 - “Splash the blood against the sides of the altar”  Same as Lev 1.5,11,15.  Lev 17.14 - the life of a creature is its blood.  The blood on the Altar was yet another reminder that a valuable animal gave up its life.  This is important.  This is sacred14:07 - Lev 3.7-11 - lamb and V12-16 Goat within the same family.  Compare: 7-12,8-13,9-14.  The only real difference v9 - the entire fat tail of the lamb - sheep in Malawi 15:44 - Sheep versus goats in Malawi.  Sheep have tails and look like dogs.17:39 - A pleasing aroma to the Lord18:20 - Lev 3.17 - A lasting ordinance for generations to come - you must not eat any fat or any blood?  Gen 9.4 - (amp) “you shall not eat meat along with its life, that is, its blood.”  Lev 7.22-27, “Eating Fat and Blood Forbidden.  Lev 17.10-12, “Eating Blood Forbidden”21:15 - why were the Jews forbidden from eating blood in their meat?24:21 - Additional details about the fellowship offering from outside Lev 3.Lev 7.31-34;  Lev 6-7; 1 Kings 8.62-63, 65-66.29:36 - APPLICATION.  Which type of Christian are you?Reference: Support Iron Sheep Ministries: https://Ironsheep.org/donateListen to the podcast: https://anchor.fm/ironsheepContact Dave & the ISM team: info@ironsheep.orgBe notified of each new teaching, join the email list: http://eepurl.com/g-2zADReferences:Dave reads from an NIV (New International Version) of the Bible.Barker, L.

Episode 357: On a sunny Wednesday afternoon, 21 June 1950, the tranquil tobacco farming community of Langton, of Langton, Ontario, was shattered by a violent crime that would leave an indelible mark on Canadian history. Joseph Herbert McAuliffe, a World War II veteran turned counterfeiter, walked into the Imperial Bank of Canada with robbery on his mind. In less than half an hour, two innocent men lay dead at the robber's hands, Arthur Lierman and William Goddyn, their bodies riddled with bullets, and a community was gripped by fear. For three harrowing days, Norfolk County held its breath as McAuliffe, armed and desperate, evaded capture in the surrounding woods. The manhunt that ensued would reveal a tale of tragic childhood, wartime heroism, and a descent into criminality that culminated in a botched robbery and senseless killings. As the story unfolded, it exposed the raw nerves of a nation grappling with questions of justice, redemption, and the ultimate price of crime.

Monday, 3 March 2025   And Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” Matthew 8:7   “And Jesus, He says to him, ‘I, having come, I will heal him'” (CG).   In the previous verse, the centurion explained why he had come to Jesus, noting that his servant was paralyzed and in great torment. After hearing this, Matthew next records, “And Jesus, He says to him, ‘I, having come, I will heal him.'”   A couple of translations turn this into a question, “Jesus said to him, ‘Shall I come and heal him?'” (NIV). This does not appear to be the intent at all. Despite this, the Expositor's NT says their rendering is ingenious.   Jesus, using an aorist participle (having come) affirms that when He comes, He will heal him. As such, the Pulpit Commentary rightly says, “The emphasis is not on the coming, but on the person who comes.”   A call was made from a non-Jew who was a part of the occupying power. It would seem like an out-of-place request, but it was made, and Jesus did not hesitate in responding to the need.   He also didn't hesitate to note that He would attend to the servant accordingly. The word used therapeuó, has already been seen in Chapter 4. The meaning here is to heal, but the word itself signifies to attend to, coming from the word therapōn, an attendant.   Jesus had only heard about the man and had not even seen his condition to see if it was worse than anticipated. And yet, He confidently noted that He would handle the situation. It shows a total self-awareness of His capabilities and authority over the man's condition.   Life application: Today, we still have the ability to request healing from the Lord. He is no farther than a prayer away. However, it may be His will to withhold healing for His own purposes.   There are people in Acts who were healed who had certainly been in the area of Jesus. One of them is someone who had to have been there when Jesus was in Jerusalem –   “Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour. 2 And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful.” Acts 3:1,2   According to Acts 4, the man was over forty years old. He was carried to this spot daily. It is difficult to imagine that he and Jesus were not in the same area together. And yet, Jesus didn't heal him. Others in the area were healed later by the apostles as well.   By not healing them, Jesus left them so that others could have their ministry validated through the power of healing in His name. We have to live with our afflictions, understanding they may have a purpose we don't see or understand.   At the same time, we can request the Lord to restore us. If it is His will, we can know that it is possible, having faith that it is so. All power in heaven and on earth is possessed by Him. So, we should not hold back at least asking for His hand of healing.   Lord God, how good You are to us. We thank You that we can know with certainty that we are saved and will someday be delivered from these mortal, corruptible bodies. And yet, even while in them, we can petition You for healing when they break down in one way or another. If You choose to heal, we will be healed. Thank You that we know that whatever happens, it is Your will that will come about. Amen.

With renewed interest in The Nauvoo Expositor affidavits as a “silver bullet” for proving Joseph Smith practiced polygamy, Mormonish is releasing its episode with RFM debuting his groundbreaking evidence about the polygamy affidavits contained in the Expositor. No one breaks down the evidence quite like RFM and by the end of the episode you'll understand why the terms “smoking gun” and “silver bullet” are accurately applied in this case.Did Joseph Smith record D&C 132, the revelation on plural marriage? A growing number of members of the church and splinter groups believe that Joseph Smith did not practice polygamy, but rather, this practice was instituted by Brigham Young. They also believe that any written record of Joseph's polygamy, including D&C 132 was created by someone other than Joseph to make it appear that Joseph Smith practiced polygamy. RFM's comparison between their description of D&C 132, as stated in the affidavits, and D&C 132 itself makes it clear that this document must have existed during Joseph Smith's lifetime. Join us for this fascinating episode as Radio Free Mormon puts the evidence on trial!(This episode was originally released July 17, 2023)If you would like to help financially support our podcast, you can DONATE to support Mormonish Podcast here: https://donorbox.org/mormonish-podcast Mormonish Podcast is a 501(c) (3) ****WE HAVE MERCH! **** If you'd like to purchase Mormonish Merch, you can visit our Merch store here: ttps://www.etsy.com/shop/mormonishmerch We appreciate our Mormonish viewers and listeners so much!

In this Bible Study, we go verse by verse through Leviticus chapter 2.  We unpack the multiple types of prepared Grain offerings instructed by God for the Israelites to make.  We also take a deep look at Leaven / Yeast in the Bible as well as why salt was always to be included in the grain offering.  Finally, as always, we conclude with an application of this text for our lives today.  Join us as we dig deep into scripture!Outline: 03:28 - Background explanation05:25 - “Grain Offering” - Hebrew word study - Minḥâ מִנְחָה (gift), (offering) - it is a gift to the Lord.Gen 32-33 - we see Jacob reunited with his brother Esau Gen 43.11 - gifts for Joseph in Egypt.  Same word.  07:03 - A portion was burned on the altar - the rest went to the priest for their food. 1 Cor 9.13-14, Deut 25.410:14 - support the work of Iron Sheep Ministries - Mail your gift to 4300 Route 50, Suite 105, Saratoga Springs NY 12866Or give online at -www.ironsheep.org/donate11:38 - Grain Offerings were often offered with other sacrifices Lev 9.4“grain offering” occurs 93x in NIV - 29x Lev, 44x Num.  (21x Num 28-29).  Those two chapters summarize offerings to be made daily, weekly, monthly, and at annual festivals (Passover, Day of Atonement, Festival of Weeks, etc).  13:08 - 5 different types of grain offerings in Lev 2Lev 2.1-3 - 1 - uncooked - includes incense (niv) - KJV, AMP, CSB, ESV - “Frankincense”13:57 - What is Frankincense?  It is a dried resin from the Boswellia tree (native to the Sinai peninsula).  It is a key ingredient in incense.  Used throughout the ancient Near East as part of burnt sacrifices.  Mat 2.11 it was a gift brought from the Magi, which symbolized Jesus' future sacrifice he would become on the altar for our atonement of sin.15:47 - Lev 2.4 - 2 baked in an oven - thin or thick loaves Lev 2.5-6 - 3 cooked on a griddleLev 2.7 - 4 cooked in a pan16:14 - Lev 2.11-12- no yeast (leaven) or honey? 16:46 - Topical look at Yeast (leaven) in the Bible.  “Yeast” occurs 57 times in the NIV; 10 in the New Testament and 47 in the Old Testament.  In OT yeast is always literal and related to cooking in bread.Gen 19.3 - Lot makes bread without yeastExo 12-13 - God's instructions on the Passover meal.  They had no time to let the yeast rise.  Deu 16:3.Lev 7.13 & Lev 23.17 - both are instances of bread made with yeast.In the New Testament, yeast is always figurative, sometimes good and sometimes bad.Matt 13.33, & Luke 13.20-21, yeast represents the Kingdom of HeavenMatt 16.5-12; (Mrk 8.14-21) yeast represents sin, specifically hypocrisy (Luke 12.1)Gal 5.9 - yeast is false teaching 1 Cor 5.6-7 - yeast is sin, malice & wickedness28:02 - Lev 2.13 - what is the “salt of the covenant of your God”  Salt is a preservative and a flavor enhancer.  Salt was added to all the offerings as a reminder that the offerings were a preservative of the covenant.  Salt is also a picture of how we are to be as Christians.  Read Matthew 5.13, where Jesus calls us to be the Salt of the Earth.31:15 - Lev 2.14-16 - Firstfruits - What are first fruits?  1 Cor 15.19-2134:17 - Conclusion and Application. 1 Thes 5.16-18; John 6.29-35.  Reference: Support Iron Sheep Ministries: https://Ironsheep.org/donateListen to the podcast: https://anchor.fm/ironsheepContact Dave & the ISM team: info@ironsheep.orgBe notified of each new teaching, join the email list: http://eepurl.com/g-2zADReferences:Dave reads from an NIV (New International Version) of the Bible.Barker, L.

In this first in our series going verse by verse through the book of Leviticus, we look at the historical and cultural context of the book of Leviticus. We ask, who was the author, who was the original intended audience and what was the significance of the text to them? Then we ask how this text applies to us today. Ultimately, we ask why should we even study such a strange text that seems so irrelevant for us today. We dig into all this and more in this introduction to the book of Leviticus. Outline: 02:12 - Introduction - The Book of Leviticus is about holiness - being set apart Be Holy for I am holy” - Lev 11.44; 11.45; 19.2; 20.7; 20.26; 21.8. 04:16 - Background of Leviticus Author: The Holy Spirit - Leviticus contains more direct speech by God than any other book of the Bible. Human author: Moses (3rd of his 5 books - Torah, the Law - the Pentateuch). When written: During the dessert wanderings (1,400 - 1,500 BC) Original Intended Audience: Israel, specifically the Levitical priesthood.

25_01_18 -Ep.347 - Run With Horses Podcast - Spiritual Disciplines – Study   Podcast: rwh.podbean.com Website: www.runwithhorses.net Youtube: https://youtube.com/@rwhpodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RWHpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rwh_podcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/RWH_podcast   Susan's New book – Parenting Manual https://a.co/d/8L7GWIo   Norman's New book – Pursuing Godliness Together - It's a practical, quick read! https://a.co/d/c7Y7F04   **(28:00)** Today we consider the Spiritual Discipline of Study.   Welcome to Run With Horses! My name is Norman and my goal is to help you thrive as a follower of Jesus. The spiritual life is both incredibly simple and potentially the most difficult part of your life. God invites you to live intentionally and on His mission. It's very cool that we can do that together!   Thank you for joining me today! “If you're new here, you can check out past episodes at runwithhorses.net. As always, I appreciate your feedback, questions, and reviews!”   **(27:00 – 23:00)** Stages of Spiritual Growth – Questions to Ponder 1. Spiritual Infant Loving God: Do you understand the Gospel and what Jesus has done for you? Loving Others: Do you feel connected to a church family? Making Disciples: Do you know what it means to share your faith with others? 2. Spiritual Child Loving God: Are you developing a regular habit of prayer and Bible reading? Loving Others: How are you learning to serve others in love? Making Disciples: Do you understand why discipleship is important? What steps are you taking to grow in your ability to explain the Gospel?       **(23:00 – 0:00)* * PART 1** Study as a Spiritual Discipline 1. Building a Biblical Foundation - Why Study Purpose of Study: To know God and grow in spiritual maturity. Key Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:15: "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." Hosea 4:6a: "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." Importance of Study: Strengthens our faith (Romans 10:17). Equips us for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Protects against false teaching (Acts 17:11, Ephesians 4:14). 2. What to Study The Word of God: Primary focus should be the Bible. Key Scripture: Psalm 119:105: "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." Matthew 4:4: "It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'" Supporting Resources: Study guides, commentaries, and Bible dictionaries. Church doctrinal statements and creeds (to understand Baptist distinctives). Key Topics to Include: The nature of God, salvation, sanctification, and missions. 3. Who Should Study Every Believer: Spiritual growth is the responsibility of all Christians. Key Scripture: Colossians 3:16: "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord." 1 Peter 2:2: "As newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby." Special Responsibilities: Teachers and leaders bear greater accountability in teaching and applying truth. Key Scripture: James 3:1: "My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment." **(00:00) END PART 1**   **(27:00 – 5:00) BEGIN PART 2** 4. How to Study The Grammatical-Historical-Literal Framework for Studying the Bible 1. Purpose: Understanding how to study the Bible to uncover its intended meaning. Emphasize that Scripture is God-breathed (2 Timothy 3:16-17) and must be handled carefully (2 Timothy 2:15). Goal: Equip learners to study Scripture accurately and faithfully. 2. Overview of the Framework Definition: Grammatical: Focus on the language and structure of the text. Historical: Consider the historical and cultural context. Literal: Interpret according to the plain meaning of the text, unless clearly figurative. Key Scripture: Nehemiah 8:8: "So they read distinctly from the book, in the Law of God; and they gave the sense, and helped them to understand the reading." 2 Peter 1:20-21: "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit." 3. Step-by-Step Explanation A. Grammatical Approach Focus: Analyze sentence structure, grammar, and word meanings. Practical Tools: Use concordances and interlinear Bibles to study original Greek and Hebrew words. Recognize literary devices like metaphors, similes, and hyperboles. Example: Study "love" in 1 Corinthians 13, noting the Greek word agape for deeper understanding. B. Historical Approach Focus: Understand the cultural, geographical, and historical context. Practical Tools: Use Bible atlases, historical commentaries, and timelines. Research customs and traditions relevant to the text. Example: Explore the context of the Good Samaritan parable (Luke 10:25-37) to understand Jewish-Samaritan relations. C. Literal Approach Focus: Take the text at face value unless the context suggests figurative language. Practical Tools: Identify genre: poetry, narrative, prophecy, etc. Compare Scripture with Scripture to clarify meaning. Example: Interpret Genesis 1 as a literal account of creation, unless a figurative explanation is evident. 4. Application and Integration Combining All Three Elements: Example Passage: Study John 3:16 using all three approaches. Grammatical: Analyze "believe" in Greek (pisteuo) to understand its depth. Historical: Consider Nicodemus' Jewish background and understanding. Literal: Take the plain meaning of God's promise of eternal life for believers. Practice Exercise: Assign a passage for group study, using the framework to break down its meaning. 5. Recommended Resources Concordances: Strong's Concordance. Interlinear Bibles: Available on BibleHub or Blue Letter Bible. Historical Context: Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary. Commentaries: For beginners: Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary. For advanced study: The Expositor's Bible Commentary. 6. Conclusion Reiterate the value of accurate Bible study for spiritual growth and understanding. Encourage consistent practice using the framework to build confidence in handling Scripture. Close with 2 Timothy 2:15 as a charge: "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." Key Scripture: 2 Peter 1:20-21: "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit."   Practical Steps for Bible Study: Pray for Understanding (Psalm 119:18). Read the Passage Repeatedly (Joshua 1:8). Observe: Look for key words, phrases, and structure. Interpret: Use cross-references and study tools for clarification. Apply: Determine how the passage affects your life and obedience to God. Think – God given ability Recommended Resources for Beginners: A good study Bible (e.g., NKJV Study Bible). Bible dictionaries (e.g., Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary). Introductory commentaries (e.g., Wiersbe's Expository Outlines on the Bible). Online tools like BibleHub or Blue Letter Bible for concordances and interlinear studies. Logos Bible software         **(5:00 – 1:00)**   Doctrine of the Month - The Church Defined Edification and the Local Church   Outline: Leadership of the Local Church Topic: A Baptist theological perspective on the leadership structure and responsibilities within the local church. 1. Introduction (2 min) Key Idea: Baptists hold to congregational governance under the Lordship of Christ, with two biblical offices: pastors/elders and deacons. Purpose: To explore the roles, qualifications, and functions of church leaders. Scripture Reference: Colossians 1:18 "And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence." 2. Christ as the Head of the Church (2 min) Christ is the ultimate authority, and leaders serve under His direction. The local church submits to His Lordship in all matters of faith and practice. Scripture Reference: Ephesians 1:22-23 "And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all." 3. The Role of Pastors/Elders (5 min) Definition: Pastors (also called elders or overseers) are responsible for shepherding, teaching, and leading the church spiritually. Key Responsibilities: Preaching the Word, equipping the saints, and providing oversight. Scripture References: 1 Timothy 3:1-7 "This is a faithful saying: If a man desires the position of a bishop, he desires a good work. A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach; not given to wine, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous; one who rules his own house well, having his children in submission with all reverence (for if a man does not know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the church of God?); not a novice, lest being puffed up with pride he fall into the same condemnation as the devil. Moreover he must have a good testimony among those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil." 1 Peter 5:2-3 "Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly; nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock." 4. The Role of Deacons (5 min) Definition: Deacons are servants who support the practical needs of the church to free pastors for their primary roles. Key Responsibilities: Serving the congregation, addressing physical and administrative needs. Scripture References: Acts 6:3-4 "Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business; but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word." 1 Timothy 3:8-13 "Likewise deacons must be reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for money, holding the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience. But let these also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, being found blameless. Likewise, their wives must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things. Let deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. For those who have served well as deacons obtain for themselves a good standing and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus." 5. Congregational Governance (3 min) Definition: In Baptist churches, the congregation is the final authority under Christ. Members are responsible for affirming leaders, making key decisions, and maintaining doctrinal purity. Scripture References: Acts 6:5 "And the saying pleased the whole multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch." Matthew 18:17 "And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the church. But if he refuses even to hear the church, let him be to you like a heathen and a tax collector." 6. The Importance of Servant Leadership (3 min) Key Idea: Both pastors and deacons model servant leadership, following Christ's example. Leadership in the church is about humility, service, and love for the body of Christ. Scripture Reference: Mark 10:43-45 "Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. And whoever of you desires to be first shall be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." 7. Conclusion (2 min) God has ordained pastors and deacons to serve and lead the church under Christ's Lordship. Congregational participation ensures the church remains faithful to its mission. Call to action: Pray for your church leaders and actively support the work of the local church.       **(1:00)**   - “Thank you for listening today!   -If you enjoyed the show you can listen to all the past shows wherever you listen to podcasts.

On the evening of February 14, 1985, Valentine's Day, at around 6:00 p.m., Bryan Hart of Colborne, Ontario, came home to a quiet house after work. He looked around the house for his wife, Betty, but could not find her. The couple's 19-year-old son had already been home for an hour and a half. Michael said he hadn't seen his mom but had noticed a pair of glasses she wore sitting on the landing leading into the basement. Thinking his mother was out somewhere, Michael picked up the glasses and put them on top of the refrigerator in the kitchen for safekeeping. On learning about the glasses from Michael, Bryan felt compelled to check the basement. It was the only place he hadn't checked yet. In the cellar, Bryan discovered Betty lying on her side in a vast pool of blood. She was unresponsive. Bryan raced back upstairs and told his son to call an ambulance. Marguerite Elizabeth (Betty) Hart, 46, was dead. Among Betty's many injuries, her throat had been slashed. Early on, the OPP presumed Betty's wounds to be self-inflicted, but not all was as it appeared. Sources: 1987 CanLII 124 (ON CA) | R. v. Moran | CanLII SCC Docket | Donald Philip John Moran v.
