"Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet, Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God's great Judgment Seat" (Rudyard Kipling). Tim and Mary take on another news cycle, as Summer gives way to Fall. What will the new season bring, regarding the Middle East and the falling West? There may not be a lot of commentary in the week after Labor Day, but things done under the sun are never "done". Today we talk about the very real potential for famine following the reported collapse of bee colonies in the West. The Bible has some pretty dire warnings about this in Revelation 6. Also on the agenda, the changes in the UK on a civilizational level. How long till what is turning into utter tyranny over there, will we see such brazen, unlawful censorship here in the States? Probably just one presidential election away. We take a look at the Vatican's LGBTQ embrace, and why is it that they speak out of both sides of their mouths on this lifestyle, and try to appear to condone it? Yes, East and West will, according to the Bible, become one big happy dictatorship in the end, but God will bring both together for judgment after the sin of the earth-dwellers is full. East and West shall meet. Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where we journey together through the Scriptures every day. In today's episode, host Hunter invites you to the third day of September—day 247 in our year-long adventure through God's Word. We find ourselves steeped in powerful passages from Ezekiel 20 and 21, Psalm 11, and Revelation 8, exploring themes of rebellion, judgment, and above all, God's unwavering love and justice. As the story unfolds, we hear about Israel's persistent straying and God's profound mercy, the sobering vision of judgment, and the psalmist's reminder that—even as terror and the sword are prophesied—our hope and safety are found in the Lord. The episode moves from somber warnings to a vibrant assurance: God's dream isn't destruction, but a world made new, humanity reconciled, and shalom restored through Jesus. Along the way, listeners are encouraged to pause in awe before the Lamb, practice faith through silence and worship, and remember that, no matter what we face, we are deeply loved. So, take a breath, open your heart to today's readings, and join the global DRB family as we draw near to God together. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Terror and the Sword—And the Face of God. How sobering it all is, the prophet cries “Tear, tear, tear”—the sound of the eagle's warning. And again, “A sword, a sword, a sword,” proclaims Ezekiel, as judgment comes upon the world's rebellion against God. This is a hard and honest picture—one in which the world's great rebellion exhausts itself in its own fury, and where God, in justice, brings the rebellion to an end. The prophets give us this clear message: a world bent on violence, on idolatry, on turning from the Lord, must one day face a reckoning. But before we despair over the terror and the sword and the brokenness described by the prophets, the psalmist speaks: “The righteous Lord loves justice. The virtuous will see his face.” God desires a relationship, face to face. He's not a God intent on destruction, but a God intent on drawing his people close to himself. Yet, our violence, pride, and idolatry have separated us from him—have blinded us to his face. In love and in justice, God has made a way for us to meet him as we are and as he is. When the Lamb breaks the seventh seal, all heaven falls silent. There's awe in the recognition of the coming terrors, yes, but there's also an invitation: to trust in the Lord for protection. The psalmist asks, “Why do you say to me, fly like a bird to the mountains for safety?” Our true place of refuge is not in fleeing from the world's danger, but in flying to Christ himself—to Calvary, “the mountain of safety.” It's there that the Lamb of God absorbed all violence and judgment at the hands of his rebellious creation. There, he did not strike out in vengeance, but stretched out his hands in forgiveness. By his self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love, he extinguished the power of death and the grave and began making all things new. So we are invited to remain in awe, to stand in silence at the wonder of the Lamb's sacrifice—the one who offered himself for the world. God's dream is not endless destruction, but a world restored, humanity awakened to the fullness of life and shalom, reconciled and made new. Jesus has come to accomplish this: God's dream for you, and for all creation, will not fail. Paul saw the day when Christ is “all and in all”—he saw the dream come to completion. While the violence and darkness around us may be easy to see, God's dream requires our hearts to be trained in faith: to see what God sees, to believe what God has done, and to press forward into his promise. Let us fix our eyes on Christ, training our souls to know God face to face and to know his joy. Let us receive his peace, his joy, his forgiveness—and let us become ambassadors of this radically reconciling love. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. That's a prayer for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Gracious and everlasting God, you have brought us through the shadow of night into the promise of a new day. You go before us with your mercy, sustain us by your grace and keep us from wandering paths of fear or pride. Let every word we speak and every step we take be formed by the goodness of Christ. O Lord, gather your people far and near. May every tribe and tongue come to know your peace. Let justice roll like a river and healing flow where there has been division. Pour out your spirit upon all flesh and bring us closer to the day when your kingdom comes in fullness through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen. OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.

In this lecture, Don Carson examines Revelation 5 to underscore Christ's unparalleled worthiness to open the scroll, symbolizing God's sovereign plan for redemption and judgment. Carson emphasizes that only the Lamb—Jesus Christ—can enact God's purposes, highlighting His central role in the cosmic narrative. Carson calls believers to respond with worship and adoration, recognizing Christ's supremacy and victory over evil.He teaches the following:Why Jesus alone is worthy to open the scroll, signifying His unique authorityChrist's worthiness to open the scroll signifies His final triumph over sin, evil, and deathHow the scroll represents God's sovereign purposes for judgment and redemptionHow the Lamb symbolizes complete power and knowledgeJesus has established universal dominion, making believers a kingdom and priests to serve GodChrist's redemption is not limited to one group, but extends to all peoples, nations, and tonguesThe significance of angelic praise of the Lamb, acknowledging His eternal worthHow Christ bridges the gap between God and humanity, fulfilling God's redemptive purposes
Today we're diving into a major prophecy headline: Pope Leo is continuing Pope Francis's legacy of so-called “openness,” pushing LGBTQ inclusion deeper into the Catholic Church. Jesuit priest James Martin says the Pope is committed to this agenda—and many believe it's laying the groundwork for the prophesied One World Religion. Revelation warns of a False Prophet who looks like a lamb but speaks like a dragon, and these moves sound eerily familiar. Add to that Macron's war rhetoric, Jordan's stance against Israel, and the UN's globalist agenda—it all points to the rise of the end-time system. 📱: It's never been easier to understand.

Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where each day we journey through the pages of Scripture together. In today's episode—September 2nd, 2025—your Bible Reading Coach Hunter guides us through Ezekiel chapters 17 to 19 and Revelation chapter 7. Together, we explore the vivid riddles and prophetic songs of Ezekiel, reflecting on Israel's history, covenant, and the profound call to personal responsibility and transformation. Then, we move into Revelation, where a powerful vision unfolds: multitudes clothed in white, a symbol of those who have washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb and now worship before God's throne. Hunter unpacks the hope within these passages, reminding us that God's love brings newness, healing, and belonging for all who turn to Him. Along the way, Hunter invites listeners from around the world to share in prayer and encouragement, and offers a thoughtful reflection on God's enduring grace—no matter what joys or challenges a new month may bring. Settle in as we read, reflect, and discover what it means to be loved and renewed by the God who is love. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Who are these people dressed in white? And why does John take such care to describe them for us in Revelation 7? These are questions worth lingering with today. The scene John describes is breathtaking: a vast crowd, too great to count, from every nation, tribe, people, and language, standing before God's throne and before the Lamb. They are clothed in white robes, holding palm branches, and their voices ring out with one mighty shout: “Salvation comes from our God who sits on the throne, and from the Lamb.” But where did these people come from? The answer comes from one of the elders around the throne: “These are the ones who died in the great tribulation. They have washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb and made them white.” They stand where they stand—not because of what they've done to cover themselves, but because of what Christ has done for them. They once were hungry and thirsty; now they are satisfied. They knew tears and sorrow; now every tear is wiped away. They once felt exposed and alone; now they are sheltered, known, and loved. Why them? Because they were willing to let go of their old garments—their efforts to cover shame, clothe themselves in reputation or piety, or hide their brokenness. Instead, they came before God as they truly were, and the Lamb did what only he can—he washed them clean, gave them new life, and clothed them in his righteousness. All their striving was set aside. They rested in Christ's finished work. That is why they are dressed in white, and that is why they shout with joy. This is a vision of hope for us, too. Wherever we come from, whatever burdens or brokenness we may carry, the invitation is the same: to let go of hiding, to wash our lives in the grace of the Lamb, and to receive the new song of his salvation. You, too, are invited to put on these clean, white robes and stand in the joy and freedom of being fully seen, fully loved, and fully forgiven. Let us step into this new life today. Let us discard the old clothes of shame and fear, and be robed in the love and acceptance of Christ. May the song of salvation rise within us—a song strong enough to carry us through every trial, every sorrow, every joy. That's the prayer I have for my own soul today. That's the prayer I have for my family: for my wife, my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Jesus is my shepherd. You have called me by my name into the life of the Beloved. Here in the stillness, I remember that I am not alone. I belong to you and to the great communion of saints and sinners held together in your love. Remind me, Lord, that every breath is grace, every encounter is a chance to give what I have received—mercy without measure. When I forget who I am, when I lose my way, lead me again to still waters. Restore my soul, renew my hope. Reroute me in the joy of simply being yours. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

Pillars and Practices // Praise, Worship, and Prayer Both Praise and Worship are in Part:Reverence (Awe)Recognition (Awareness)Revelation (Awakening)Response (Action) Hebrew WordsYadahPsalm 44:8 (NIV)“In God we make our boast all day long, and we will praise (yâdâh) your name forever.” Towdah Psalm 56:11-12 (NKJV)“In God I have put my trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?...I will render praises (tôwdâh) to you.” Zamar - To make music. To celebrate in song and music. To touch the strings.Psalm 144:9 (NKJV)“I will sing a new song to You, O God; On a harp of ten strings, I will sing praises (zâmar) to You.”Psalm 21:13 (KJV)“Be exalted O Lord, in Thine own strength, so will we sing and praise (zâmar) thy power.” Barak - To kneel. To bow down. To salute. To thank.Psalm 103:1 (NIV)“Praise (bârak) the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being praise his holy name.” Shabach - To address in a loud tone. To shout. To commend, glory, and triumph.Psalm 145:4 (NKJV)“One generation shall praise (shâbach) your works to another.”1 Samuel 4:5 (NLT)“When all the Israelites saw the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord coming into the camp, their shout of joy praise (shâbach) was so loud it made the ground shake! Tehillah - Derived from the word halal and means "the singing of halals, to sing or to laud; perceived to involve music, especially singing; hymns of the Spirit or praise.Psalm 22:3 (NASB)“Yet you are holy, and you are enthroned upon the praises (tehillah) of Israel.”Isaiah 61:3 (NASB)“To grant to those who mourn in Zion, Giving them a garland instead of ashes, The oil of gladness instead of mourning, The garment of praise (tehillah) instead of the spirit of heaviness, So they shall be called oaks of righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” Halal - Means "to be clear, to praise, to shine, to boast, show, to rave, celebrate, to be clamorously foolish."Psalm 113:1-3 (NKJV)“Praise (hallal) the Lord, praise (hallal) all you servants of the Lord, praise (hallal) the name of the Lord.”Psalm 150:1 (AMP)“Praise (hallal) the Lord! Praise (hallal) God in His sanctuary; Praise (hallal) Him in His mighty heavens.”Psalm 149:3 (NKJV)“Let them praise (hallal) His name in the dance: let them sing praises with the timbrel and harp.” The Hebrew word most often translated as worship is Shachah - to bow down or to be prostrate; it's used over 170 times in the Old Testament.Exodus 34:8 (NIV)“Moses bowed down and worshipped.” The Greek word most often translated as worship is ProskuneoMatthew 28:9 (NKJV)“And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, “Rejoice!” So they came and held him by the feet and worshiped him.”John 4:24 (NKJV)“God is Spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”Revelation 5:14 (NKJV)“Then the four living creatures said, “Amen!” And the twenty-four elders fell down and worshiped him who lives forever and ever.” These are Biblical, not just cultural or denominational, and they all have their place and time. As much as a people of Praise and Worship, we need to be a People of Prayer.

A detailed explanation of the 'Parable of the Royal Wedding' (Matthew 22:1-14), an intense, shocking, and yet beautiful message taught by Jesus. In this parable Jesus graphically illustrates God's persistent judgments on the nation of Israel for consistently rejecting God's truth and Messiah, while at the same time cleverly emphasizes God's overwhelming grace to every Jew and Gentile who embraces Christ Jesus in faith. We encourage you to listen, not only for the spiritual benefits of this parable, but for the historical ones as well.

Thoughts on the Bible Readings September 2nd (2 Kings 7; Lamentations 3; 1 Corinthians 16)2 Kings 7 shows us, yet again, that when the Almighty says a thing will happen - it will, no matter how seemingly impossible. The incredulous and faithless lord on whose arm the king of Israel leans states that the famine could not be ended even if Yahweh was to open windows in heaven. The language echoes Elijah's era when the windows of heaven were both shut and opened - compare Revelation 11 verses 1-6; and Malachi 3 verses 10-12. Four lepers found food in the abandoned Syrian camp. This led to the fulfilment of the prophet Elisha's word, both to the abundance and price of the food and judgment on the unbelieving lord. Once more think of how the concept is taken up in Revelation 6 verses 5-6. Just as the Corinthian letters told us of Paul's life; so, does Jeremiah's lament of his feelings in this third chapter. The main lesson of the book is introduced in verse 1 verses "I am the man that has seen sorrow". He is indeed "a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief" as our Lord Jesus Christ is so described in Isaiah 53 verses 3. However it is what this suffering servant learns through his trust in God as he in patience endures his horrendous experiences verses Hebrews 5 verses 7-9. The prophet Jeremiah likewise similarly learns verses 18-39 - carefully read these and ponder what is the message that the Almighty wants each of His suffering servants to learn and grow thereby. We are told of the benefits and purpose in suffering. We must believe though we may not understand. Our trust and faith in our Sovereign must remain unshakable as He is the One who is leading us to a place in His kingdom verses Hebrews 12 verses 5-17 meditate the marvellous grace of our God. How great is Yahweh's steadfast love (Chesed - His faithfulness)! Each sunrise reminds us. In affliction we suffer in silence - trusting that He will deliver us at the proper time. Experience through testing takes time to yield results. 1 Corinthians 16 tells us to be prepared for contributing money when we come to the Lord's Supper. The background to the starting of the collections among the Gentiles was to support their Jewish brethren who were suffering hardship due to their persecution for becoming believers in Christ Jesus and to alleviate the troubles brought by the great famine. The first day of the week was traditionally the day when the believers met to remember our Lord Jesus Christ in bread and wine. By the Jewish calendar it was after 6pm Saturday evening. Those believers who were blessed to have some money gave some of it at that time. It was done discretely that is why Paul requested preparation before they arrived at the gathering. In his final instructions the Apostle sends greetings and commends the house of Stephanos for their addiction to service of fellow believers. The letter ends with both a warning and an implied appeal, verses 22-24, "If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord come! The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen." (ESV) Contemplate our privileges in Christ - the blessings that we receive - and how we can love our Lord and live to please him now that we might graciously find a place in his kingdom.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow at https://christadelphianvideo.org/christadelphian-daily-readings/

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this very first day of September, join your host Hunter as we continue our journey through the Bible on Day 244. Today's readings take us through Ezekiel chapters 15 and 16, Psalm 70, and Revelation chapter 6. Hunter reflects on vivid scriptural images of God's deep, passionate love for his people—even in the face of heartbreak, betrayal, and waywardness. With honest, stirring language, we're reminded that God is not distant or unmoved; instead, His love for us is relentless and restorative, culminating in the promise of making all things new through Christ. As always, the episode closes with heartfelt prayers for peace, restoration, and a renewed awareness of God's immeasurable love. Plus, we hear greetings from listeners around the globe, and Hunter gives a shout out to the faithful partners who help keep this community growing. Settle in with us today as we listen, reflect, and remember just how loved we truly are. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The weight of betrayal—and the depths of God's love. The prophet searches for words, for any comparison that can capture the astonishing rebellion and wandering of God's people, but it seems one image isn't enough. So Ezekiel weaves together the agony of a parent hurt and disgraced by a child's rejection and the heartbreak of a spouse betrayed by infidelity. It's as if only the harshest metaphors—abandonment, scorn, unfaithfulness—come close to how God has experienced our betrayal. But what Ezekiel means for us to see is not a distant or impassive God, but a God whose heart breaks for his children. God is not cold or removed; he is like a loving parent, or a spouse long-suffering and grieved by unfaithfulness. And in all this, the astonishing truth is that God is determined to restore this broken relationship. The end of the story is not bitterness or vengeance, but a restoration so deep and new that it surpasses every failure—like a wedding feast where God takes back his wayward bride, making all things new. This is a passionate love story—one that shakes us awake, urging us to recognize the depth of God's longing for his people. Yet, even as Ezekiel's words startle us, it is in Jesus that we see the perfect picture. Where the prophet's analogies reach their limits, Jesus reveals God's love in flesh and blood—a love that goes to the deepest cost, to the cross, to bring us home, to restore all that was lost. This is the truth we're called to live awakened to today: the deep, relentless, rescuing love of God, fully revealed in Christ. May we see it. May our hearts be stirred to what truly is—that we are loved with a love beyond our imagining, and that God is working even now to make all things new. That's the prayer I have for my own soul. That's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, and my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought us in safety to this new day. Preserve us with your mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. Dear Lord, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you and find you, bring the nations into your fold. Pour out your spirit on all flesh and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. And now, Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, joy. O Lord, grant that I might not seek so much to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned. It is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen. Almighty God, father of all mercies, we, your grateful children, give you humble thanks for all your goodness and loving kindness to us and all you have made. We bless you for your creation, preservation and all the blessings of this life. And above all, for your immeasurable love and your redemption of the world through our Lord Jesus Christ. For the means of grace and the hope of glory, Lord, we pray, give us such awareness of your mercies that with truly thankful hearts we may show forth your praise, not only with our lips, but with our lives, by the giving up of ourselves for your service in holiness and righteousness all our days. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, to whom with you and the Holy Spirit be all honor and glory through all ages. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray. Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen. OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.

What if your work isn't just a job—but part of God's bigger story for your life?For some, work is a source of stress, struggle, or simply something to endure. But what if we're seeing it all wrong? What if God designed work to be a vital part of how we worship Him and serve others? Dr. Tom Nelson joins us today to talk about that. Dr. Tom Nelson is the President of Made to Flourish and has served as the Senior Pastor of Christ Community Church, a multi-site congregation across Kansas City, for over 30 years. He is also the author of Why Your Work Matters: How God Uses Our Everyday Vocations to Transform Us, Our Neighbors, and the World.False Narratives About WorkCulture tells us many things about work—most of them untrue.“Thank God it's Friday” reflects the belief that work is a curse and that our real lives happen only on weekends.Work as mere productivity reduces our calling to a paycheck or to-do list.Sacred vs. secular divide suggests ministry work matters more than other vocations.However, if we return to Genesis 1 and 2, we find that work is not a curse. Work is God's good design. Whether paid or unpaid, our work is part of how we glorify Him.The Four-Chapter Story of WorkDr. Tom Nelson uses a “four-chapter” framework to show how the Bible shapes a proper view of work:Creation – What Ought to Be. God designed work as a gift and a reflection of His image. Work and worship were never meant to be separate.The Fall – What Is. Sin corrupted work, introducing toil, frustration, and broken relationships.Redemption – What Can Be. Through Christ, our work can be redeemed. Whether changing diapers, leading a company, or volunteering, we bring God's presence into every environment.New Creation – What Will Be. One day, we will experience work in its perfect form—creative, joyful, and without sin—in God's restored Kingdom.One of the most transformative ideas to remember is that all work done for God's glory is sacred. Work is contribution, not just compensation. We carry God's presence with us into our workplaces because the Holy Spirit dwells within us.This perspective breaks down the artificial barrier between “spiritual” and “secular” work. It gives believers a seamless life of worship—Sunday through Monday.Hope for the FutureWe won't spend eternity sitting on clouds. Revelation offers us a glimpse of a garden city where we will worship Jesus and engage in creative, joyful work—free from sin, frustration, and the need for perfect relationships with God and others.If you've believed that your work doesn't matter, be encouraged that you were created with work in mind. God is with you in your work. When you embrace Jesus and become His apprentice, you'll learn to live a seamless life where every task, big or small, can glorify Him.Dr. Tom Nelson's latest book, Why Your Work Matters: How God Uses Our Everyday Vocations to Transform Us, Our Neighbors, and the World, is available wherever books are sold.

David Reeves once believed his role in missions was to give generously to the ministries he knew. But after a moment of full surrender as a young man, God redirected his path toward a life of hands-on impact that would ripple across missions, Bible translation, and church planting worldwide. Starting out with an electrical engineering degree, David first served in tech support for a missionary aviation organization—work that eventually led him to leadership as general manager and later president. Today, he serves as the President and CEO of unfoldingWord, where he is pioneering a church-centered approach to Bible translation. With more than 40 years of international leadership experience across cultures and sectors, David offers a rare perspective on how God weaves together innovation, missions, and radical generosity. Under his leadership, unfoldingWord is equipping local churches to translate Scripture into their own languages using open-source tools—shifting Bible translation from centralized projects to sustainable, grassroots movements led by the global Church. Major Topics Include: Using business as a means to access Scripture and the gospel in challenging places The providential story of Unfolding Word Making the local church the hero of the story The seven key ideas of the Church-centric Bible translation model Turbo-charging church planting movements with Bible translation Why having Scripture in someone's heart language is important Unfolding Word's impact on the Bible translation ecosystem The benefits of the Creative Commons licensing model Increasing Scripture engagement Difficult lessons in trusting God QUOTES TO REMEMBER “From Pentecost to Revelation, the entire narrative is about the church.” “How do we make the local church the hero of the story?” “If we ever hope to finish the Great Commission in our lifetime, we have to stand on the centrality of the Church.” “The Church operates in a healthy form as a complex network.” “Persecution often creates unity movements. People don't care what your denomination or your background is. If you're in the midst of persecution, you're a loved and welcomed bother or sister in Christ.” “The most effective way to share the gospel is in the heart language.” “The heart language of a community is the language of weddings and funerals.” “Bible translation's proper place belongs to the Church as a tool for discipleship and church planting.” “Our passion is to empower modern-day ‘Pauls' and church planters to help them to complete the Great Commission.” “There is no Scripture engagement problem. It's integral to church-centric Bible translation.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Unfolding Word Wycliffe Bible Translators (see our interview with CEO John Chesnut) Loving the Church, Blessing the Nations by George Miley 2414 Network Biblica Open Bible Stories What Happens When Christians and Muslims Translate Scripture Side by Side (Christianity Today) Every Tribe, Every Nation and IllumiNations Bible Translation Alliance (see our interview with Todd Peterson or John Chesnut) Letting Go – UnfoldingWord's publication on licensing The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Revelation 7:9 | A Great Multitude from Every Nation After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 2 Timothy 2:2 | Teaching Teachers and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also.

Nebuchadnezzar, and the Antichrist: Two kings cut from the same cloth. Many of us would like to have more information about "The Man of Sin," "The Beast," "6-6-6." The Bible gives us only the lowlights. But he has a sort of "twin brother" in the Old Testament. Both of them are super-kings, both are identified with beasts, and both love statues.

2 Kings 7 shows us, yet again, that when the Almighty says a thing will happen - it will, no matter how seemingly impossible. The incredulous and faithless lord on whose arm the king of Israel leans states that the famine could not be ended even if Yahweh was to open windows in heaven. The language echoes Elijah's era when the windows of heaven were both shut and opened - compare Revelation 11 verses 1-6; and Malachi 3 verses 10-12. Four lepers found food in the abandoned Syrian camp. This led to the fulfilment of the prophet Elisha's word, both to the abundance and price of the food and judgment on the unbelieving lord. Once more think of how the concept is taken up in Revelation 6 verses 5-6. Just as the Corinthian letters told us of Paul's life; so, does Jeremiah's lament of his feelings in this third chapter. The main lesson of the book is introduced in verse 1 verses "I am the man that has seen sorrow". He is indeed "a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief" as our Lord Jesus Christ is so described in Isaiah 53 verses 3. However it is what this suffering servant learns through his trust in God as he in patience endures his horrendous experiences verses Hebrews 5 verses 7-9. The prophet Jeremiah likewise similarly learns verses 18-39 - carefully read these and ponder what is the message that the Almighty wants each of His suffering servants to learn and grow thereby. We are told of the benefits and purpose in suffering. We must believe though we may not understand. Our trust and faith in our Sovereign must remain unshakable as He is the One who is leading us to a place in His kingdom verses Hebrews 12 verses 5-17 meditate the marvellous grace of our God. How great is Yahweh's steadfast love (Chesed - His faithfulness)! Each sunrise reminds us. In affliction we suffer in silence - trusting that He will deliver us at the proper time. Experience through testing takes time to yield results. 1 Corinthians 16 tells us to be prepared for contributing money when we come to the Lord's Supper. The background to the starting of the collections among the Gentiles was to support their Jewish brethren who were suffering hardship due to their persecution for becoming believers in Christ Jesus and to alleviate the troubles brought by the great famine. The first day of the week was traditionally the day when the believers met to remember our Lord Jesus Christ in bread and wine. By the Jewish calendar it was after 6pm Saturday evening. Those believers who were blessed to have some money gave some of it at that time. It was done discretely that is why Paul requested preparation before they arrived at the gathering. In his final instructions the Apostle sends greetings and commends the house of Stephanos for their addiction to service of fellow believers. The letter ends with both a warning and an implied appeal, verses 22-24, "If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord come! The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen." (ESV) Contemplate our privileges in Christ - the blessings that we receive - and how we can love our Lord and live to please him now that we might graciously find a place in his kingdom.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow at https://christadelphianvideo.org/christadelphian-daily-readings/

We're all familiar with the experience of being tourists, but exiles? No way. And yet, we are told in multiple places in the Bible to think of ourselves as exiles here on earth, because this is not our true home. In this week's message from Revelation 14–18, Pastor J.D. shows us the value of living as exiles in a place that frequently seems alluring but will ultimately pass away. What we are meant to do is fix our eyes on the heavenly city, the one with true, lasting foundations. That, after all, is our eternal home.

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode for August 31st, guest host Heather leads us through a meaningful journey in Scripture, focusing on Ezekiel chapters 12 to 14 and Revelation chapter 5. Heather invites listeners from around the globe to pause and reflect—not just on the words themselves, but on the way they point us to Jesus, the true source of life. Together, we dig into themes of rebellion, judgment, and hope, witnessing God's faithfulness even in times of despair. As the episode unfolds, Heather unpacks the powerful vision of the Lamb in Revelation, emphasizing that when our first look at the world prompts tears and confusion, we are called to look again—to see the redeeming love of Christ who steps forward on our behalf. Through scripture, thoughtful reflection, and earnest prayer, this episode encourages us to keep seeking, keep worshiping, and keep discovering the deep love of God that restores and renews us each day. Join us as we pray together, hold onto hope, and remember that no matter where we are in our story, we are deeply loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: At first look, you might weep, but you need to look again. And again we look for answers to the judgment that life is sure to bring—the rebellion that is borne out in each human heart, and the destruction that comes from our own selfish ways. When we take that first look, we are going to weep because we don't have an answer. John didn't have an answer either. He weeps because he realizes that within himself he has no answer to judgment. No one has been found worthy. No one has stepped forward on behalf of this broken and rebellious world. John weeps for himself and his nation, but an elder stops him from weeping. He's told by this elder to take a second look. In this second look, he is going to see an answer. And the answer is not what you would think. The answer is the Lamb. He says, stop weeping. Look. This Lamb steps forward to take the scroll that represents the fury of judgment that this broken and rebellious world has brought on themselves. He's not led or pushed forward. He steps forward because of the love he has for his broken world and for broken people like me and you. This Lamb steps forward to take the scroll representing the judgment due this world. The Lamb is the only one who has the answer for the judgment I deserve in this life. That scroll was nailed with him on the cross. As it were, on the cross he opened the scroll and answered the charges written on it. He absorbed the fury of our judgments. He answered it all with self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love. That's what we are asked to look at again. Then John is told to look a third time. This third look shows him all that the Lamb has accomplished by stepping forward. He sees a vision of people from every tribe and tongue and language, countless millions around the throne, worshiping and adoring the Lamb. Keep looking. When you don't see an answer in the midst of your tears, keep looking. If you look, you will see a Lamb. He alone has the answer you're looking for. He is the answer to your despair and shame, your broken heart and your regrets. He is the answer for it all. He has stepped forward for you out of love, to do what he alone can do. We need to look again—a third time. Then we will see that the Lamb has stepped forward for countless millions of others, other broken and rebellious people like us. He is making them new, restoring their hearts, drying their tears and giving them a new song. Worthy is the Lamb. May God enable us to sing this new song today. And may he cause us to look, and look, and look again. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. That's a prayer I have for my family and for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

Welcome to Tin Foil Hat with Sam Tripoli. In this episode, Austin Ward Picard and Brad Binkley delve into the disturbing connections between the Aurora theater shooting, the Sandy Hook tragedy, and the LIBOR financial scandal—highlighting that both James Holmes and Adam Lanza reportedly had family members linked to the ongoing investigation.. They argue that Holmes, a neuroscience student with alleged DARPA connections, shows signs of being a modern Manchurian Candidate, potentially subjected to mind control and Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Drawing on From PSYOP to MindWar by Vallely and Aquino, they highlight the use of psychological warfare to erode free will and reshape identity. The Aurora event mirrors Columbine in method and symbolism, with testimony from ex-prisoner Steven Unruh and references to the 1986 Batman comic suggesting deliberate behavioral programming and "Revelation of the Method" as part of a broader assault on human consciousness.
