For there is an elect of God which will be taken by Jesus into heaven when Jesus returns to gather the elect of God from off this earth. Matthew 24:31 And HE (Jesus) shall send HIS angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together HIS elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
(This podcast was previously published on August 27, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... What can be more important for a parent than the mate their child marries? (Much prayer and help is needed from God in this matter if you are a parent.) Isaac was the child of the promise of God. Abraham knew it would be bad if Isaac married one of the daughters of Cannan. So Abraham instructed his servant and sent his servant to bring from his people a wife for Isaac.
(This podcast was previously published on August 26, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Pam Padgett is a member of the body of Christ, chosen by God and given the Holy Spirit by God. I wanted you to see how God speaks to Pam for this is a very good example for you to know that God speaks to all of those who are the elect of God, not just to HIS chosen ministers.
How to study the BIBLE: The One Fold and The One Shepherd: There is UNITY in CHRIST and not divisions or denominations. We all must be of the same fold under The One Shepherd which is Christ (Galatians 3:25-29), and we all must teach the same doctrine, ( I Corinthians 1:10).Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/chatting-from-the-word-hosted-by-oscar--4081759/support.
(This podcast was previously published on August 25, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... In the previous Podcasts, I shared Words God spoke to Abraham which are recorded in Genesis. I suggest that you list some of those Words that God has spoken to you. For if you are born again, God will communicate with you by HIS Spirit. I will give you examples of words God has sent to me at various times in my life. There are far too many times God has spoken to me for me to list all of those Words, but I will share with you some of those Words which God has spoken to me during my life.
God's WORLD; God's MAN; God's GARDEN; God's UNION; God's Worldview - If marriage is foundational to a strong spiritual society then is it no wonder society is struggling so? Psalm 11:3Scripture Reading: Mt. 22:23-33I. The Union - 2:18-251. God acts - vv. 18-222. Adam reacts - v. 23• At last• Same body (bone/flesh)• Same root name 3. Moses speaks - vv. 24-25II. The Break Up - 3:1-131. From bliss to blame 2. Covering our own sin 3. Consequences of sin 4. In Christ reconciliation and healing is possible - Love God more than spouse; Love even your enemies (like ex's)5. Anger blinds us from seeing - Matthew 7:1-56. Jordan P - divorce of parents is more damaging on kids that the death of a parent III. The Reunion (After the Fallin') - God's Word speaks as if we can walk in marital bliss even after the sin of Adam and Eve and after our own sin!1. We will learn a lot from the marriage of Adam (Eve) - 2. We don't learn much about the marriage of Noah (don't even know her name) - 3. We can learn a lot about the marriage of Job (unnamed) - 4. We can learn a lot from the marriage of Abraham (Sarah, “Hagar” - Ishmael, Keturah after Sarah died w/ whom he had 6 sons) 5. We can learn a lot from the marriage of Isaac (Rebekah) - twins after 20 years of marriage (Jacob & Esau sibling rivalry not all that different from Cain & Abel).6. We can learn a lot from the marriages of Jacob7. We don't know a lot about the marriage of Joseph arranged by the Egyptian Pharaoh (Asenath - daughter of priest Potipheri)/. She bore Joseph the forefathers of 2 of the 12 tribes (Ephraim & Manasseh)8. We can learn a lot from the marriage of Moses (Zipphorah) - She saves his life and then in anger throws something at Moses - Ex. 4:24-26; don't hear that every day in our biblical counseling sessions!9. We can learn a lot from the marriages of David (8) - from Michal (daughter of King Saul) to Bathsheba (mother of Solomon). He had children with 7 of them!10. I wouldn't put anyone through studying the marriages of Solomon - however he had some great things to say about wives: Proverbs 5:18; 12:4; 18:22; 19:14; 31:10-31(1) Passages that apply very well to marriage: *Ecclesiastes 4:11-12 - *I Corinthians 13:1-13 - *Ephesians 4:32 - *Philippians 2:3-4 -(2) Marriage according to Paul - *I Corinthians 7:8 - don't do it *Ephesians 5:18-21, 22-33 (In what culture is Christ the Head of the Church?); Colossians 3:18-19(3) Marriage according to Peter - I Peter 3:1-7 (“likewise”; “grant her honor”; “fellow heir”)(4) Marriage according to Jesus - Matthew 19:1-9; 22:23-33 5 Marriages Worth Studying:• Adam & Eve (forgiveness) • Boaz & Ruth (selflessness) • Zechariah & Elizabeth (communication - 9 months of non-verbal communication)• Joseph & Mary (trust) - Put her away privately • Aquila & Priscilla (mutuality) - I Corinthians 18; Romans 16:13-14
(This podcast was previously published on August 20, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Genesis 9 1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. 2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered. 3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. 4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat. 5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man. 6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made HE man.
(This podcast was previously published on August 18, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... As a new Christian in 1975, my young friend and I began looking for the scripture where it says all men are created equal. We couldn't find that in the Bible. So we went to a man who was a professor at Dallas Theological Seminary and asked him where this is in the Bible. He said: "That statement is not in the Bible." We were shocked! (Seems that I have heard this statement all my life.)
Getting to know God: Up Close…Book of Genesis (Celebrating Independence Day)What makes a nation great? Her connection to the God that made her.

Man didn't know evil - never saw evil, never experienced anything evil. This was a test!3. Knowledge - carnal knowledge • Many today choosing Singleness over Marriage - fear of being hurt yet single people often experience fear of being alone. Both are hard. Both can hurt. One has the potential to share life. The other doesn't. Ecclesiastes 4:11-12• “When Sinners say “I do” • “What did you expect?”• Does the order of creation matter? Yes. Adam is held responsible for the fall! I Timothy 2:13• What does leave and cleave mean? Parents are not absent. They are now secondary. I Timothy 5• What does leave and cleave not mean?“A daughter is a daughter for the rest of her life, but a son is only a son until he finds himself a wife”
(This podcast was previously published on August 11, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... The elect of God are the children of "the promise". We are chosen by God and HE reveals Himself to us and changes us from that person we once were. Paul says: II Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
(This podcast was previously published on August 7, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... Genesis 2 18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. 19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. (The naming of an animal gives you a type of dominance over that animal.) 20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. 21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and HE took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made HE a woman, and brought her unto the man. 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
(This podcast was previously published on August 4, 2021) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... God puts HIS own Spirit into HIS children so HE can communicate constantly with us, guiding us, teaching us, showing us what to do as we live in this present world. God's Spirit is HOLY and true and comforts us in every way in everything we do. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Jesus HIMSELF.

The way we worship is important to God. For 5 chapters in I Corinthians, the Holy Spirit directed Paul to write about the things that should and should not occur during worship. In this message, I look at this important teaching about what God expects out of us when we publicly worship Him. Tarry
What does Job 17 say?About the friends- 17:2, 4, 5, 10, 12God Himself- 17:3, 6About Job and his hopeless situation- 17:1, 7, 11, 13-16Jesus and Job 1717:2 Jesus was surrounded by mockers- Servants of God often found themselves as surrounded by hostile mockers (Ps. 119:51; Jer.20:7) and Jesus is the ultimate illustration of this (Ps. 22:7, 12; Matt. 27:29, 41). He was surrounded by them even in his death 17:6 Job is a byword as the innocent sufferer of Psalm 69:11-12. Psalm 69 is often quoted in the NT and applied to Jesus. (Ps. 69:4/ Jn. 15:25; Ps. 69:9a/ Jn. 2:17; Ps. 69:9b/Rom. 15:3; 69:21/ Jn. 19:28-30).Spitting is a major form of disgrace. Job endured people spitting in His face. Job's experiences foreshadow the experiences of the ultimate righteous sufferer (Matt. 26:67; 27:30; Mk. 10:34; 14:65; 15:19). 17:8 This verse speaks of the upright being appalled. The verb appalled is used of the suffering servant in Isaiah 52:14. Many will be appalled at the appearance of the Servant. 17:13-16 Jesus' death and resurrection can provide us with hope, a hope that even sin and death cannot take away (I Corinthians 15; Heb. 2:10-18).

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: Romans 5:1-11, Matthew 9:9-13, Mark 2:14-22, Luke 5:27-35, I Corinthians 11:29-32, Hosea 5:15-6:6Sermon Outline Jesus, friend of sinners, calls Matthew to follow Him. Being a sinner was the only qualification Matthew had for joining the disciples The only thing that qualifies us to be followers of Jesus is that we are sinners who need grace. Why does Jesus eat with tax collectors and sinners? Jesus is the incarnation of God's mercy. Following Jesus is not heroic, it's surrender. Jesus still eats with sinners today. No one is worthy to come to the Communion Table Jesus has made us worthy by His sacrifice Consider the worth or real value of Jesus' sacrifice for us.Sermon Questions In the choice of Matthew, what is surprising or offensive to you? How does Jesus respond to the Pharisees' indirect criticism? What would have been different about your life if Jesus had come only to call "righteous" people instead of "sinners"? Are you willing to share openly about those things in your life that qualify you to follow Jesus? Does anything disqualify you from following Jesus? How would you respond if someone said you were unworthy to come to the Communion Table? When you receive communion what helps you to focus on the real worth and value of what Jesus did for you on the cross? Does anything distract you as you receive communion?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon?

Acts 7 records a Gospel sermon proclaimed to Paul before he was born again. Paul, approving of Stephen's execution, would have been aware of this testimony. Sometime later, Paul is brought to repentance and faith by the sovereign grace of God & now we read his own Gospel sermon preached to the church in Corinth in I Corinthians 15. I Cor 15:1-3 provides an outline for the remainder of the chapter. Each section following this introduction contains increasingly detailed content. The Gospel that Paul preached and upon which the Church stands is summarized in verses 3-11. Verses 12-34 expound the resurrection as a theological nonnegotiable… the resurrection is essential doctrine to Christianity. To deny it is to deny the faith, rendering everything else you happen to profess meaningless, futile, vain, & useless. Finally, verses 35–58 address frequently asked questions about eternal life answering them with a profound and glorious explanation according to the scriptures proclaimed, fulfilled, and applied.

Tradition is a buzzword in confessional polemics: Protestants (supposedly) say Scripture only, while Catholics and Orthodox (supposedly) say Scripture-and-Tradition without hierarchical triage between them. Of course, it has never been that simple! Luther and Melanchthon and the Formula of Concord all insist that they were in fact more faithful to the tradition of the church against Roman innovation. Roman Catholics rightly point out all that is not explicit in Scripture and yet adhered to faithfully by the church, including Protestants (e.g. the word “Trinity” or infant baptism). For that matter, Scripture itself is a form of Tradition and full of Tradition—as the opening words of I Corinthians 15 attest, and much biblical scholarship of the past two hundred years has excavated. So what do we even mean by Tradition? How do we judge it or select from it—because everybody in fact does just that? How do we know what is a faithful development from the original apostolic gospel and what is a treacherous deviation? What “principle of critical judgment” or “clear method of discrimination”? David Bentley Hart and his book Tradition and Apocalypse to the rescue! ... maybe.

A Sermon Series by Pastor Clow examining the Gospel of Jesus Christ from I Corinthians 15.
It is always as dark as night 2,000 feet beneath the ocean's surface. Yet a rich variety of life thrives in the darkness. The strategies for life far beneath the waves are remarkable and unique.Even in the deep ocean, predator searches for prey and prey tries to escape predator. The permanent darkness and buoyant water allow for unusually creative strategies in this rhythm of life. Some creatures try to hide in the darkness. Others use light to lure prey close to them. Some creatures even squirt luminescent clouds into the water to make predators think that they are where they're not.Perhaps the most creative is a species of jellyfish. When a potential predator comes close to the jellyfish, the jellyfish turns off the lights in its bell-shaped body. Then switching off the lights in its tentacles, the jellyfish scoots away as fast as it can. If the predator wasn't fooled and continues the chase, the jellyfish switches to plan B. It turns on the blue light in its body and the white lights in its tentacles. When the attacker is very close, the jellyfish turns off the light in its body and takes off, detaching its still-glowing tentacles. The tentacles continue to writhe in the water, distracting the predator.According to evolution theory, jellyfish are among the most primitive multicelled animals. In this clever survival strategy, we see that jellyfish are neither simple nor primitive. They are a true credit to the Creator's handiwork!I Corinthians 10:13“There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”Prayer: Father, nothing You have made fails to declare Your glory. Help me do a better job of glorifying You so that more people may be invited to Your forgiving grace in Jesus Christ. In His Name. Amen.REF.: Discover.

We are stewards of whatever possessions God gives us, and there is no excuse for those whom He has called to be ignorant of that. He laid out a plan for both systematic and spontaneous giving.

Rev. Vincent Joplin teaches from I Corinthians 6:1-8. Church conflict isn't the problem, how we handle it is, and when we choose pride, revenge, or public drama, we damage our witness and reflect the world instead of Christ. This message calls us higher: handle it in the house, choose mercy over being right, and trust God to bring real justice and healing.Stay connected with Hope Church Memphis:Website • HopeChurchMemphis.comInstagram • @Hope4MemphisTikTok • @Hope4MemphisFacebook • @Hope4MemphisPrayer • HopeChurchMemphis.com/PrayerGiving • HopeChurchMemphis.com/Give
A Sermon Series by Pastor Clow examining the Gospel of Jesus Christ from I Corinthians 15.
You foolish person! I Corinthians 15 isn't the place to come for an instruction manual, but for a redirection toward the one who was raised from the dead for the glory of God. In this episode Dad and I talk through what is—and isn't—the subject matter of the apostle's treatise on resurrection, where to be exuberant (i.e. doxology), where to be sober (i.e. the mechanics of the life to come), and why it makes all the difference to the living of this mortal life right now. We're in our EIGHTH year! And you haven't backed us yet? You foolish person! Demonstrate your phronesis by backing us on Patreon!
DON'T BURY IT | April 19, 2026Pastor Wes Morris Matthew 25:14-24 (NLT) “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven can be illustrated by the story of a man going on a long trip. He called together his servants and entrusted his money to them while he was gone. He gave five bags of silver to one, two bags of silver to another, and one bag of silver to the last—dividing it in proportion to their abilities. He then left on his trip.“The servant who received the five bags of silver began to invest the money and earned five more. The servant with two bags of silver also went to work and earned two more. But the servant who received the one bag of silver dug a hole in the ground and hid the master's money.“After a long time their master returned from his trip and called them to give an account of how they had used his money. The servant to whom he had entrusted the five bags of silver came forward with five more and said, ‘Master, you gave me five bags of silver to invest, and I have earned five more.'“The master was full of praise. ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let's celebrate together!'“The servant who had received the two bags of silver came forward and said, ‘Master, you gave me two bags of silver to invest, and I have earned two more.'“The master said, ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let's celebrate together!'“Then the servant with the one bag of silver came and said, ‘Master, I knew you were a harsh man, harvesting crops you didn't plant and gathering crops you didn't cultivate. I was afraid I would lose your money, so I hid it in the earth. Look, here is your money back.'”✓ WE‘VE ALL BEEN GIVEN SOMETHING. ✓ COMPARISON WILL CAUSE YOU TO MISS WHAT GOD HAS PLACED IN YOUR HANDS.Matthew 25:18 (NLT) "But the servant who received the one bag of silver dug a hole in the ground and hid the master's money."✓ YOUR VIEW OF GOD SHAPES YOUR RESPONSE TO GOD.Matthew 25:24 (NLT) “Then the servant with the one bag of silver came and said, ‘Master, I knew you were a harsh man…'”DON'T BURY ITI. SEE GOD IN A NEW WAY.James 1:17-18 (NLT) Whatever is good and perfect is a gift coming down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens.

And we, out of all creation, became his prized possession.God is good.God gives perfect gifts.God is the source.God is our Father.God is unchanging.God is steady.God is truthful.God deeply values you.II.
