News broke yesterday of a hostage release deal combined with an Israel/Hamas cease-fire to take place in 3 phases. Israel National News was reporting that Hamas was making new demands while Israel's Prime Minister accused Hamas of reneging on parts of the Gaza cease-fire agreement in a bid to extort last minute concessions. He reportedly demanded that all details be finalized before taking a vote of the security cabinet.To present the latest news on this very fluid situation was Rick DeYoung. Rick is co-host of Prophecy Today, CEO of Shofar Communications, a graduate of Word of Life Bible Institute. Rick is also the son of Dr. Jimmy DeYoung Sr.Rick communicated that the hostage deal appears to be in the final stages. It's going before the Israeli cabinet tomorrow to be approved. So at this point there is excitement in the air with the hope that there's an end in sight and possibly a return to normalcy.Rick indicated that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has had to "walk the line" between the pressure to make a deal and bring the hostages home while also balancing security and deterrence for Israel's overall population. That last point is a concern due to the large number of terrorists Israel would have to release under any deal. Keep in mind, as Rick also noted, Israel has been trying to end Hamas because Israel feels it no longer can be secure if Hamas is in control. So a deal could allow Hamas to retain some power.Overall, Rick believes the time is right for a deal, particularly with President-elect Trump about to take the reins in the U.S., as he's shown that he's a supporter of Israel.

"The world has changed. The cost to follow Jesus is going up. Are you prepared to pay?"

He is the author of the newly published Unpuzzling Hebrews: A New Translation and Commentary.

In his 2007 book, "Opening Up Titus," David Campbell helpfully introduces this third pastoral epistle. Frank Houghton's well-known hymn Facing a task unfinished challenges us with the needs of those who are as yet unreached with the gospel: "with none to heed their crying / for life, and love, and light, / unnumbered souls are dying, / and pass into the night."But it is not just our missionary and evangelistic task that is unfinished. There is also the task that faces each Christian church to put its own house in order. There are needs, responsibilities, and shortcomings, threats to its safety, opportunities to serve the Lord and minister to its members, which each congregation unendingly faces.The letter to Titus reminds us that there is nothing new about this. There were things ‘unfinished' in the first century Cretan church where Titus served and as we read through the letter we discover what they were. They have a familiar ring to them. They are the very things that need to be addressed in our churches today.But there is so much more to the letter than a mere list of things that needed to be tackled. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit the Apostle Paul explains why they are to be tackled and how they are to be tackled and by whom. In doing so he gives inspired guidance for churches in all ages as each faces its own unfinished task. And to help us better understand all of this we welcome back to the podcast Jonathan Ward. Jonathan serves as the Associate Professor of Bible and Theology at the Owen Sound Campus of the Word of Life Bible Institute right here in Ontario. He is a graduate of New Brunswick Bible Institute, Baptist Bible Seminary, and holds a Master of Divinity from Luther Rice Seminary.
Welcome to an exciting episode of Grace Bond Ministries! I (Jonathan) have wrestled with the ideas of God having soverign power and humans having true, libertarian free will. On this podcast, I have invited a new colleague, Trent Blake, who is a firm molinist to explain what Molinism is, how it compares to other major views like Calvinism, Arminianism and Open Theism, explaining some scriptures that seem to easily support Molinism and others that are a challenge to Molinism. Molinism is mainly focused on the theological theory of the middle knowledge of God, which is basically that God has full knowledge of what could happen, what would happen and what will happen. If God simply has foreknowledge of these three ideas, then it is possible that human beings could have true libertarian free will. We also discussed Molinism in a practical sense, discussing did God use free will and somehow Jesus's prophecies all come true? Does Molinism help us answer the problem of evil (if God is all knowing, loving and powerful, then why does he allow evil to exist?)? Are we predestined to be believers or nonbelievers, or do we have the free will choice to believe in Jesus for our salvation? Do people die when God determines them to die, or do our free will choices affect how long we live? There are many other topics covered in this podcast, and if you are struggling with understanding how God in His Soverign power works, you definitely will want to listen into this podcast! It is a very deep discussion, but it is a very important discussion. It just may make you rethink how you think about God and His world! It may also get you to rethink the faith if you have rejected Christianity because of the viewpoints of others! If you have any other questions, comments or would like to be on the podcast, email me at gracebondministries@gmail.com ! God bless! Trent Blake is the editor-in-chief of Baseline Christianity (baselinechristianity.com). He seeks to help Christians deepen their love for God and in doing so, equip them to replicate that love to others. Trent is a graduate of Word of Life Bible Institute and is currently taking online courses with Moody Bible Institute for pastoral ministry. He has also written for TheRebelution.com and has been featured in the bestselling Christian young adult book Do Hard Things.
Born and raised in Taiwan, Zoe Yu grew a deep disdain for Christians and thought the stories in the Bible were mere fairytales. But in her desire to learn English, Zoe signed up for a one-year Bible college. Coming in as a rebel-rouser, Zoe actually learned the truth of the Bible and was encountered by loving Christians. A desperate plea to God was the first prayer she ever prayed. It was miraculously answered with a new heart to embrace the truth of Jesus and a new life for Him. Zoe is a video intern with OneWay Young Adults.

Ask ten Christians which book of the Bible is their favourite, which book has been the most impactful in their lives, and which book has provided the most clarity as to their position in Christ and the power they have with which to follow him and it's likely that more than one will answer, “Ephesians.” “By common consent, the Letter to the Ephesians ranks very high in the devotional and theological literature of the Christian Church. It has been called ‘the Queen of the Epistles'—and rightly so. Many would hold that it is indeed the highest reach of New Testament thought. When the great Scottish Protestant reformer John Knox was very near to death, the book that was most often read to him was John Calvin's Sermons on the Letter to the Ephesians. The poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge said of Ephesians that it was ‘the divinest composition'. He went on: ‘It embraces first, those doctrines peculiar to Christianity, and, then, those precepts common with it in natural religion.' Ephesians clearly has a unique place in the Pauline correspondence” (Barclay, The Letters to the Galatians and Ephesians, 71). To help us explore this phenomenal section of holy writ we welcome back to the podcast Dr. Daniel Goepfrich. Dr. Goepfrich is the teaching pastor at Oak Tree Community Church in South Bend, Indiana. He also teaches Bible, theology, and biblical languages at Calvary University, Tyndale Theological Seminary, and the Word of Life Bible Institute. In addition to this he is the author of several books and the founder of Theology is for Everyone Ministries.
The book of Acts grants readers a unique and fascinating glimpse into the world of the early church. We peer through the corridors of two millennia and see the still vivid foundations of our own faith. Beginning in Jerusalem, Acts shows us the road we believers have traveled to arrive at our present state. All that we, the contemporary church, are today, we owe to the pioneers to whom its author, Luke, introduces us. Luke continues to perform an estimable service for contemporary believers by unveiling the historical, social, cultural, political and religious milieu of the first three decades of church history (Steven Ger, The Book of Acts: Witnesses to the World, 1.). Dr. Daniel Goepfrich has joined the program to help us think through this user-important transitional book of the biblical record. Dr. Goepfrich is the teaching pastor at Oak Tree Community Church in South Bend, Indiana. He also teaches Bible, theology, and biblical languages at Calvary University, Tyndale Theological Seminary, and the Word of Life Bible Institute. In addition to this he is the author of several books and the founder of Theology is for Everyone Ministries.

"Almost three thousand years ago, the ancient Assyrians began to flex their muscles. For the greater part of the period from the end of the tenth century to the seventh century BC, this dynamic military power dominated the ancient Near East. At its height the Assyrians could lay claim to an empire that stretched across Asia Minor, from Egypt in the west, to the border between Iran and India in the east, and from Russia in the north, to Arabia in the south. "At the heart of this mighty empire in its latter days lay Nineveh, encircled by massive walls and many watchtowers, guarding majestic palaces, temples and gardens. It was vast, impregnable and seemingly indestructible. "Yet the rapid collapse of mighty Nineveh is one of the great mysteries of history. So, how could Nineveh, in particular, and Assyria, in general, vanish in such a spectacular fashion? The prophet Nahum leaves us in no doubt: God was against them, but he was with his people" (Clive Anderson, Opening up Nahum, 8). To help us better understand this often neglected section of Scripture we welcome to the podcast Filipe Santos. Filipe is a missionary who has been serving at the Word of Life Bible Institute in Sao Paulo, Brazil since 2019, prior to which he and his family were stationed in South Korea and, before that, in Hungary. At his current post in Brazil, Filipe holds the position of Dean of the Graduate School and as a professor of Bible and Theology.
How better to introduce a conversation on the book of Jonah than by quoting one of the best theologians and commentators on the subject. "Jonah is one of the most well-known biblical stories. ... It is precisely because we know the story so well that we must work even harder when reading it, otherwise our over-familiarization can dull our senses to the beautiful narration and theological complexities within the story. For example, it is easy to consider the story to be over after chapter three, simply ignoring the final chapter. But it is that last chapter which addresses the theological puzzle that is key to interpreting and understanding the book of Jonah. It is in the last chapter where we fully comprehend that Jonah knew great theological truths but tried to limit those truths. It is in the last chapter where the reader must wrestle with their own theology and their own desires to put limits on the God of their theology" (Hoyt, 335). Today, we welcome back to the podcast, László Kádár. Laci serves as staff Bible teacher and evangelist at the Word of Life Bible Institute in Hungary. He's a gifted preacher and teacher and diligent student of God's word and, because of that, he's a great candidate to help us think through this well-known but oft-misunderstood and mis-applied book of the Bible.
Speaking of the timelessness of the book of Amos, one author writes this: "Injustice permeates our world, yet as Christians we often turn a blind eye to the suffering of others for 'more important' work like praying, preaching, and teaching. But the book of Amos reminds us that those works, while unquestionably central to a believer's life, ring hollow when we don't love and serve others in our own lives. Do you find yourself falling into that trap at times—prioritizing prayer over service?" These are probing questions for any thoughtful believer to consider. And to help us think through the book that prompts such reflection, we're joined by Dr. Stephen Bramer. Dr. Bramer is the chair of the Bible Exposition department at Dallas Theological Seminary in Texas and adjunct professor at the Word of Life Bible Institute in Hungary, Briercrest Seminary in Saskatchewan, and Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary in Jordan. So, really, he's all over the world! He also serves as teaching pastor at Waterbrook Bible Fellowship. Dr. Bramer also has a bit more of a connection with us at Oakridge Bible Chapel in that he grew up here in Oakville attending a small assembly in the community.
First impressions of the book of Joel may be akin to "same song, different verse," as it includes familiar themes of disobedience and discipline, retribution and restoration. One pastor summarizes the book this way: "Using what was at that time the well-known locust plague in Judah, Joel capitalized on a recent tragedy to dispense the Lord's message of judgment and the hope of repentance. In referring to the terrible locust plague, Joel was able to speak into the lives of his listeners and imprint the message of judgment into their minds, like a brand sears the flesh of an animal." Didn't Isaiah already talk about this? Jeremiah said something similar, didn't he? What about Hosea? Oh, right, andEzekiel! Do we really need another prophet reiterating the same warnings and promises and sending Bible readers into fits of scriptural deja vu? Well, before we allow our eyes to glaze over and apathy to dull our interest, we should be reminded that there is a necessary uniqueness to Joel that other facets of inspired Scripture lack. And to help us understand just what that is we welcome back to the podcast Jonathan Ward. Jonathan serves as the Associate Professor of Bible and Theology at the Owen Sound Campus of the Word of Life Bible Institute right here in Ontario. He is a graduate of New Brunswick Bible Institute, Baptist Bible Seminary, and holds a Master of Divinity from Luther Rice Seminary.
The biblical books of First and Second Samuel are, so say it simply, action-packed. And, within the repeated ups and downs of the inspired narrative are some of the most well-known, oft-quoted, and dearly-beloved stories: Hannah's miraculous pregnancy (1 Samuel 1), the tragic reign of king Saul (1 Samuel 10–31), the anointing of Jesse's youngest son (1 Samuel 16), David and Goliath (1 Samuel 17), David and Jonathan (1 Samuel 18), David's enthronement (2 Samuel 2), the unification of the kingdom (2 Samuel 5), God's covenant with David (2 Samuel 7), David and Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11), David's mighty men (2 Samuel 23), and the degradation of the kingdom (2 Samuel 13–22). It is an absolutely epic ride with much to teach us about God, his world, and his people. With so much scriptural ground to cover we needed to find a guest to guide us well and we found just that. Jonathan Ward serves as the Associate Professor of Bible and Theology at the Owen Sound Campus of the Word of Life Bible Institute right here in Ontario. He is a graduate of New Brunswick Bible Institute, Baptist Bible Seminary, and holds a Master of Divinity from Luther Rice Seminary.
Three down, sixty-three to go! As we continue our trek through the Bible we now come nearer the close of the Pentateuch and to the book of Numbers. The book is titled thus because it contains many, well, numbers—statistics, population counts, tribal and priestly figures, and other such data. But, as you're about to hear and maybe already know, there's so much more going on in this section of the Scriptures than counting! Today we're joined by Dr. Stephen Bramer. Dr. Bramer is the chair of the Bible Exposition department at Dallas Theological Seminary in Texas and adjunct professor at the Word of Life Bible Institute in Hungary, Briercrest Seminary in Saskatchewan, and Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary in Jordan. So, really, he's all over the world! He also serves as teaching pastor at Waterbrook Bible Fellowship.

He also serves as a guest lecturer at the Word of Life Bible Institute where he teaches a variety of biblical books, including the first gospel account. The conversation that follows will aid in reacquainting us with this particular and unique book of the Bible, warn us of some potential hazards to avoid in our exploration, and highlight some important and exciting themes we shouldn't miss.

Year of the Wolf by Steven Venton In a terrifying turn of events, man has become the hunted, rather than the hunter... Jonathan Wilkes has worked for the Pentagon as a computer analyst for ten years and has achieved what society calls "success". Now he is on his way home, back to his roots, to reconcile with his parents. He is planning a surprise reunion when something goes very wrong. He comes face-to-face with a different and deadly reality: one to which he must find a solution. He meets and teams up with several others who join him in a race against time to solve the mystery that could endanger the safety of millions of people who vacation in the Adirondack Mountains and over three hundred thousand residents. Rampaging wolf packs have overpopulated the Adirondacks and some powerful people are involved! The reader finds himself in the middle of an action-packed plot, with people being hunted by wolves, a network of criminals working together, and a prize worth billions of dollars! The reader will find main characters involved in a rescue operation, venturing the halls of the New York State legislature, and being pursued by murderous thugs in a terrifying high-speed car chase. Year of the Wolf is a tale of human greed, unspeakable cruelty, and great valor in the face of danger. It even has an unforgettable double ending. But this book has a dual purpose: to entertain, but also to show the reader something beyond the natural: Someone Who is sovereign over all, Someone Who cares, Someone Who is willing to meet the reader at his or her point of need. May this book do more than entertain. May it effect a profound change for the better in the lives of all who read these pages. About The Author I was born in 1955,late summer, and grew up in a small town in the Adirondacks.I have one brother and two sisters, and I am the only one of the four siblings to have been born in a year the New York Yankees did NOT win the World Series. The Brooklyn Dodgers won in 1955, beating the Yankees. I enjoyed fishing, swimming, running, card games, board games (There were no computer games when I was growing up.), and tennis. When I was 12, I went to the Word of Life Inn in Schroon Lake, NY, and it was there that I made the most important decision of my life. I received the Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior. And I have never ever regretted that decision. I graduated from high school in 1973, went to Nyack College for two years, went to Word of Life Bible Institute, and then went to Citadel Bible College in Ozark, Arkansas. I have a BA degree in two majors: Bible, and Pastoral Studies. I never became a pastor, but I have been involved in a local church for many years, involved in teaching, evangelism, and being on the church board. I had some bad things happen to me, and my response was to write a couple of novels, one of which is published. I really felt the emotions of the characters in the novel, probably due to the bad times I had just been through. My desire is to reach people with the good news that no matter where you are in life, God is available to all who call on Him in sincerity and truth. http://stevenventon.com/ https://www.amazon.com/Year-Wolf-Steve-Venton/dp/1951670043/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1600447064&sr=8-1 http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/stevventon.mp3

Do YOU think everyone is aware of their soul? How much time do you spend thinking about it? Maybe, it can feel abstract and even a bit eery. Intuitively, I suspect you know you are much more than just your physical body. The body is super essential, BUT what is your SOUL anyway? Today we are going to talk about; what a SOUL is, and if it's possible to SET??? Let me give you a little background: I was born and raised in Brazil. My parents were excellent; they worked for a non-profit. Continually, I observed how they invested in the lives of young people through youth camps, teaching, and mentoring.
