Teaching on the conscience is relatively sparse in Scripture. The topic occurs in only a few passages in Paul's letters so many Christians are either uninformed about the conscience or perhaps confused. How vital is it to the Christian life and what is Scripture's teaching on it? In a sermon dedicated entirely to key questions regarding the conscience, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones posits that the apostle Paul's teaching on the conscience is one of the most important subjects for the family of God. In his sermon on Romans 14:14–16 titled “Conscience,” Dr. Lloyd-Jones brings related passages on the conscience together in order to evaluate key terms and answer basic questions on the conscience. Drawing from Romans 14 and 1 Corinthians 10, Dr. Lloyd-Jones analyzes the context of strong and weak Christians on matters of opinion. With regards to these indifferent matters, the conscience is ultimate. Christians are not to exercise their liberty in such a way that it comes under the condemnation of another believer's conscience. Disregarding another's conscience or one's own can have devastating results. As such, Dr. Lloyd-Jones looks in-depth at Scriptural teaching on a defiled and seared conscience. Finally, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones provides listeners with the two main functions of the conscience in the Christian life.

Just how good are those Radiocarbon dates? When reporting an exciting archaeological discovery, popular science magazines tell the reader, for example, that some man-made artifact is 40,000 years old. A few years ago it was common to find tolerance figures such as plus or minus 1500 years attached to these ages. These tolerance figures effectively leave an impression of objective precision in the mind of the reader. Those tolerance figures are seldom used today.The Radiocarbon method was developed in 1948 and at that time was believed to be the ultimate answer to the archaeologists dating problems. The method has not lived up to its promise and today it is distrusted by the scientific community unless backed up by a second dating method. To give one example, when scientists Carbon-dated a mammoth bone hide-scraper discovered in the Yukon it was evident that man and mammoth lived at the same time but it Carbon-dated at 25 to 32 thousand years old. However, this put man on the North American Continent about twenty thousand years before humans were supposed to have arrived here! Eventually, a second test method using a nuclear accelerator was used and this dated the same piece of bone at only two thousand years!This example is common and Bible-believing Christians should not be concerned that Carbon dated ages will in any way disprove the Bible.Exodus 20:11"For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it."Prayer: Dear Lord Jesus Christ, You are the Word through Whom we were created made flesh for our salvation. You are the beating heart of Scriptural truth. Help us to see that, for Your sake, all of Scripture is trustworthy.Ref: “Old Crow Bones and Radiocarbon Dating,” Creation Ex Nihilo.

Our headmaster often uses this paradigm for the ideal Heights graduate: he's the kind of young man you'd want your daughter to marry. In a recent article for the Forum, Dr. Joseph Lanzilotti asked: in our current culture, how does a boy grow up to be the kind of man who desires that life? Delving into Church sources, both scriptural and magisterial, he has assembled the outline of a theology of masculinity. Responding to Pope St. John Paul II's description of the "feminine genius," Dr. Lanzilotti considers the prospect of a complementary "masculine genius," and what it means for our boys.

In this sermon on Romans 14:1–6 titled “Sabbath and Special Days,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones offers that Paul is not addressing the importance of observation of the Sabbath since that has been established in Scripture for all time. He provides Scriptural support for this and offers up a question that has been discussed in Christian circles often since the early church: what day of the week is supposed to be set aside for the Sabbath – Saturday or Sunday? He references Biblical evidence for the day of the week that Christians used to meet on, as well as historical evidences from writings that are outside of Scripture. How do Christians today make the right choice about the day to meet? To answer this, Dr. Lloyd-Jones reminds that the early church would not have changed the day of the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday arbitrarily— he argues that they must have received a revelation that it was good to change it. However, he also states that it is not an issue over which Christians should divide. He addresses extreme Sabbatarianism, a view that is very literal about how the Sabbath day should be observed, and provides helpful points to consider when thinking through it. In echoing Paul, he concluded that Christians are to be fully persuaded in their own mind from Scripture about which decision is correct.

Message regarding disclosure in the area of the prophetic should be centered on Christ Jesus vs. earthly things.  Scriptural reference: John 3:31-34

Hello and welcome to the Unedited podcast!   The goal of this podcast is to help you develop and enjoy the habit of daily Bible reading and prayer. It is through the Word of God and the presence of God that we GET TO KNOW God.   In today's episode, Meg reminds herself and listeners of the Scriptural principle of quiet and share an Unedited journal entry, "Be Still." Stillness and quiet are an underrated and underutilized tool and resource in our Christian lives, and in today's busy age, it is important that we intentionally carve out quiet time to sit with the Lord.  In this episode, Meg references a media panel, "Guarding Our Hearts & Home From a Media Driven World," hosted at Christian Life Church. Listen here!    If this episode blesses you, please consider share it or leave a review wherever you listen!   Meg's books, are available through Amazon and Pentecostal publishing house:

Host Jeff Shepherd explores the complex legacy of the Azusa Street Revival in this episode, beginning with powerful testimony from two people who, as children, received lasting healings — one from deafness and one from tuberculosis — that endured for seventy years. These testimonies anchor the program's repeated point: God still heals, even amid flawed movements and confused leadership. The episode traces historical roots leading to Azusa Street, profiling Frank W. Sanford and his commune at Shiloh, Charles Fox Parham and his Bethel school (including his teachings that tongues were the sole evidence of the Spirit and his emphasis on divine healing), and William Seymour, the Black preacher who became the central figure at Azusa Street in 1906. Shepard reviews both contemporary praise for Azusa's miracles and sharp criticisms from respected Bible teachers who described chaos, occult influences, and moral failures within and around the meetings. Key topics include eyewitness accounts of extraordinary phenomena and disorder at Azusa, comparisons to later movements such as the Toronto Blessing, and the author's contention that many of these manifestations resemble the Kundalini or serpent energy rather than healthy fruit of the Holy Spirit. Scriptural framing is applied using Deuteronomy 18:9–12 and 1 Corinthians 12: the program affirms that spiritual gifts like healing and miracles are real, but warns that signs and wonders without faithful Word ministry invite deception. Shepard emphasizes discernment: genuine moves of God can be infiltrated by counterfeit spirits, and believers must test everything by Scripture, adopt a Berean spirit, and hold fast to the person of Jesus. The episode balances testimony of authentic miracles with sober historical critique and practical application: search the Scriptures daily, know the real Jesus, and remain anchored in the unchanging Word to avoid being deceived. Listeners can expect history, firsthand testimony, doctrinal analysis, and pastoral exhortation on how to recognize true revival versus imitation, all delivered with a call to love God, love family, and make a godly difference in the community.

Message regarding understanding how divine chastisement (teaching, instruction, correction) is a necessity for us to be able to see  (experience) the LORD.  Scriptural reference:  Heb 12:6-14

What if the fastest way to improve your marriage had less to do with winning arguments and more to do with changing your mindset? In this conversation, Beth Bauss shares three powerful Scripture-based principles every man can apply right away: remember your spouse is not the enemy, be quick to listen and slow to speak, and choose humility over pride. With practical wisdom and a clear biblical foundation, this episode explores how one small shift in attitude can protect unity, calm conflict, and strengthen a marriage for the long run.

Vestiges of the Christian call to “love one's neighbor” can be found throughout Western culture. What has been lost, however, is the Scriptural understanding of love and a strong theological foundation to support the command. Without Scripture and theology, love of neighbor is either reduced to sentimentality or the gospel is denied. The seriousness of the latter is highlighted in this sermon on Romans 13:8–10 titled “Scriptural Love.” Modern teaching claims sinful people are able to fulfill this important command despite the fact that they have not experienced regeneration. Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones examines both Scripture and culture, arguing that a biblical view of self and neighbor is necessary to understand Paul's words correctly. This also answers one of the fundamental questions Christians ask: what is the Christian relationship to the law? Be warned against the trap of mysticism with its emphasis on mere contemplation of love and also watch out for rigorism with its emphasis on the merely knowing the letter of the law. Rather than falling into mysticism or rigorism, Dr. Lloyd-Jones argues for both the letter and the spirit of the law. Listen closely as he argues for a balanced approach to the law and seeks to challenge contemporary views of love of the neighbor.

Have you ever had a dream of ministering to someone, somewhere, and it was so vivid that you felt like you were really there? Well, maybe you were!When the Holy Spirit asked Bruce Allen years ago, “Can a man be translated by faith,” they embarked on a journey together that changed his life forever and led to the founding of The School of the Supernatural—Translation by Faith.

Between the Old and New Testaments was a period of about 400 years, often called the Silent Years. Why? Because during this time between Malachi and Matthew, there were no new Scriptural writings given. However, was God entirely silent? I'll say no. There was actually quite a bit of info written during this time; it was just told to us in advance. In fact, there was one really significant world ruler who emerged on the scene during the intertestamental period, and we've all heard about him: Alexander the Great. This man was put into leadership at 20; he conquered virtually all of the known world for Greece by the time he reached the age of 30. Which has always kind of given me a complex. Like, he did all that in his 20s, and I'm over here learning Fortnite dances. If you're 27 years old and you haven't conquered any nations yet- what are you even doing with your life? Right? Alexander the Great actually made quite a name for himself at a young age. And then he quite suddenly and tragically died at the age of 32.But his decade in power reshuffled the landscape of the world. He put an end to the Persians and established the Greek culture, and this had ramifications into the time of the New Testament- which was written in Greek!But as I said, the Bible had already told us about this guy before he even arrived, way back in the Old Testament. And the most fascinating thing of all: Alexander the Great knew it.For real. You'll find out about that today on the God and His Prophets podcast.Watch these episodes at my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LukeTaylorPodcastsNeed to get in touch with me? Reach me at GodAndHisProphetsPodcast@gmail.comIf you're looking for a Bible study podcast that goes deep into the major and minor prophets, God and His Prophets offers a verse by verse Bible study through these powerful Old Testament writings.

We also connect the prophets' words to end times Bible teaching and highlight connections to Revelation, giving you a Christian Bible commentary that equips you for spiritual insight and growth.

Understanding the nature of the Lord will make all the difference in the world when it comes to your life. How you see yourself, the world around you, your ability, your future, everything is directly tied to your view of God. A core part of a Scriptural view of the Lord is that He is compassionate. Just as He is holy, mighty, etc... He is compassionate.In this Faith for My Generation podcast episode, we discuss the Compassion of the Lord.If you prayed the prayer of Salvation please fill out this form so that we can mail you a free gift!https://gospeltabernacle.breezechms.com/form/salvationIf you would like to check out all our resources, send a message, or sow a seed into the ministry work please visit:https://www.faithformygeneration.com

Some Christian authors describe fasting as the most feared and misunderstood discipline, and perhaps the least practiced in the Christian church. Why? What stops Christians from fasting?Listen in as James walks us through a definition of Christian fasting as well as why and how to engage in fasting as parents. Like all spiritual disciplines or ordinary means of God's grace, through fasting, Christians engage Scriptural patterns with the aim to become more like Jesus.1 Tim. 4:7-10. “[Discipline] yourself for godliness; for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come . . . because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe.”“There is no virtue in fallen man by which he can make himself more godly; thereis, however, virtue in the divinely appointed means of grace. If we, by the powerof the Holy Spirit, mortify the deeds of the body (through fasting), we shall growin grace, but the glory of such change will be God's alone.” David Smith.John Calvin: “since fasting is a holy exercise both for the humbling ofmen and for their confession of humility why should we use it less thanthe ancients did in similar need?”

Last time on Foundations we looked at the Scriptural evidence of a suffering Messiah, and this time we'll look at the Scriptural evidence of a warrior Messiah and see if we can reconcile them both to help us understand how Judaism believes in two Messiah's.Your support sends the gospel to every corner of Australia through broadcast, online and print media: https://www.vision.org.au/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Scriptural prosperity is rooted strictly in spiritual laws, specifically the foundational lifestyle of honoring God. As detailed explicitly in Proverbs 3:9-10, true supernatural abundance, material multiplication, and a permanent escape from systemic generational poverty require a deep relational reverence toward the Creator. We must honor the Lord with our capital wealth and with the firstfruits of all our earthly increases. This distinct biblical principle demands prioritizing God first rather than offering Him leftover scraps after personal bills, worldly expenses, and lifestyle desires have been fully satisfied.ദൈവവചനത്തിൻ്റെ അനുഗ്രഹങ്ങൾക്കായി Blessing Today ചാനൽ ഇപ്പോൾ തന്നെ Subscribe ചെയ്യൂ! ✨പുതിയ വീഡിയോകൾക്കായി Bell Icon അമർത്തുക.

**YouTube Summary/Description****Video Title:** The Christadelphians - #11 The Christ – Whose Son Is He? – Harry Tennant**Description:**Join us for this outstanding and thought-provoking exposition as we explore one of the most profound questions in Scripture: Whose son is the Christ? In this wonderful presentation, Brother Harry Tennant guides us through an insightful, verse-by-verse examination of the sonship of Jesus.We look at the two extremes of belief—from those who deny the virgin birth to the traditional creedal teaching of an eternally begotten Son. Neither, we believe, fully reflects the beautiful, consistent revelation of the Bible. Instead, we delve into what Scripture actually says: that Jesus is the uniquely begotten Son of God, born of the virgin Mary by the power of the Holy Spirit. This revealing study walks through key passages from Matthew, Luke, John, Paul's letters, and Hebrews to show that Jesus worshipped His Father, that the Father is greater than the Son, and that Christ's glory comes from His faithful obedience—not from a pre-existent divine nature.This is a respectful, humble, and deeply Scriptural look at one of the most important doctrines of the faith. Whether you agree or disagree, this video will challenge and inspire you to return to the Word of God as the only foundation for truth.**Chapters:**00:00 – Introduction: Seeking to Know the Son03:55 – The Virgin Birth: A Non-Negotiable Bible Truth08:09 – Examining the Creeds: “Eternally Begotten” or Biblically Revealed?13:41 – Old Testament Promises: Foreordained, Then Born15:49 – Born as the Son of God (Luke 1:35, Galatians 4:4)16:56 – Philippians 2:5-11 Explained: “Form of God” – On Earth or in Heaven?24:40 – Jesus Worships God – Even After His Ascension30:13 – Conclusion: Honouring Christ Without the Creeds**Bible Verse Categories:**

May 17, 2026Today's Reading: John 15:26-16:4Daily Lectionary: Numbers 14:1-25; Luke 18:18-34“…now we cultivate the fear of God, justice, kindness, faith, and the expectation of the future given us through the Crucified One… The more we are persecuted and martyred, the more do others in ever increasing numbers become believers.”  ~Justin the Martyr (100AD – 165AD) In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Most of Jesus' words to His disciples are intended to prepare them for His departure via the cross, where He would pay the cost of their salvation. In our text, Jesus' words prepare His Apostles for their eventual crosses – the hour which is coming when, “whoever kills you will think he is offering a service to God.” (Jn 16:2) A significant portion of Jesus' words to His disciples in all the Gospels are about the cost of being His disciple. (Matthew 10:38, 16:24; Mark 8:34; Luke 9:23, 14:25-33). As His disciple, where is your cross? You needn't go looking for it. You bear it marked upon your forehead and over your heart as given in the rite of Holy Baptism. When you were made God's own child in that water and Word, you were made an enemy of Satan, and thus an enemy of this fallen world over which he rules (John 12:31). No one baptized, who stands upon the rock of Christ's truth, is immune from the scorn of Satan or this world. That is the cross borne by you and all of God's saints.  Dying to yourself and to this world doesn't have to mean martyrdom. Still, you face a world where Scriptural truth is despised, God's created order is denied, and the truth of a merciful God is rejected. The cost could include the loss of friendships, family ties, the respect of your peers, and worldly success. So it is that, in our text, Jesus' admonition likewise includes the promise that the Holy Spirit will be the immutable source of your Christian life and witness.  “I have said all these things to keep you from falling away.” (John 16:1) Jesus' admonition is a gift. When the world rages against you, you are not left alone. The Holy Spirit keeps your eyes fixed upon Jesus, who authored and perfected your faith, enduring the cross for the joy set before Him. (Hebrews 12:2) The Spirit continues to call you by the Gospel, enlighten you with His gifts, keeping you in the true faith, daily and richly forgiving your sins. The cost you pay of dying to this world is a pittance compared to the cost of Christ's own blood, which has bought you and made you an heir with Him to eternity. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. O King of glory, Lord of hosts, uplifted in triumph far above all heavens, leave us not without consolation but send us the Spirit of truth whom You promised from the Father; for You live and reign with Him and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen. (Collect for Exaudi – The Seventh Sunday of Easter)Rev. Jeffrey Ries, pastor of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tacoma, WA

Jonah"s prayer of anger to the LORD regarding HIS deliverance of ungodly people and the LORD's lesson for Jonah to recognize HIS grace to the unworthy.  Scriptural reference: Jonah 4:1-11

In today's first reading from the Acts of the Apostles, we learn that Peter and John go down to Samaria because of Philip's evangelical success. But when they arrive, they learn that, even though the new Christians there have been baptized, they have not received the Holy Spirit. So what do they do? They pray and lay hands on the new Christians, and the Holy Spirit falls upon them. Here we see the Scriptural foundation of the Sacrament of Confirmation by which we receive the fulness of the gift of the Holy Spirit!

Mother's Day message regarding seeing the character of GOD in one's mom.  Scriptural reference: Proverbs 31:25-28

Join Dr. Becky as she continues in her dissertation with Chapter 6: A Scriptural View of a Burdened Leader's Life of Prayer. Scripture provides numerous examples of burden leaders who engage in and rely on the same three traits as prescribed in this dissertation- personal, intercessory, and persevering prayer- to overcome outsmart and outlast their opposition. Importantly, their lives demonstrate to today's leaders that when burden leaders pray, it is not simply theoretical. Prayer releases a divinely imbued agent of change that, over time- and sometimes, even immediately- effectively transforms a situation, person, culture, community or country, thus, pointing to God is the reason for success against their relentless and fierce enemies.   ANY questions on HOW to LEAD a prayer meeting, the free ebook, or for daily encouragement to read through the Bible in a year, or for Becky's resources, visit: https://linktr.ee/BeckyTirabassif   Please follow Becky daily @BeckyTirabassi on Instagram or Facebook or email Becky: Media@beckytirabassi.com   For the seriously burdened leader, an eBook version is available here.

Send us Fan Mail  In today's episode, we respond to a person who challenged the deity of Christ, and went as far as to attack Who Jesus is. He made several claims about Jesus' growth, obedience, temptation, suffering, and limitations in His flesh. We defend Christ's full divinity and full humanity, providing a Scriptural basis for the deity of Christ. We discuss His equality with the Father, His voluntary self‑emptying, and His sinlessness. We argue that whatever limitations He may have had in the flesh never diminished who He truly was and still is. We affirm the biblical doctrine of the Godhead, and give biblical reasons that everyone else should. We invite you to come study God's Word with us today!

In this edition of UBC Sermon Discussions pastor Jason Wing answers questions from his sermon out of 1 Corinthians 7:1-16The main idea for the sermon was: A maturing church will be marked by members pursuing and practicing Godly marriages.Questions discussed in this episode:Q. When it comes to sexual intimacy between married couples, what advice would you give two spouses who have different degrees of desire for sexual intimacy with each other?Q. We got a few questions on this subject, so I'll try to tie them together here. I have heard that some use this passage to suggest that one spouse must do anything sexually that their spouse wants… even going so far as to suggest that there is no such thing as rape if you're married. Can you speak to the ways this verse has been abused/can be abused? What's the best Scriptural antidote against people using 1 Cor 7 to argue against consensuality being necessary in sex in marriage?Q. What advice would you give a married couple regarding healing and moving forward from sinful sexual engagement with each other before marriage?Q. Pastor Jason, In reference to 1 Corinthians 7:5, we are told to give your body to our spouse so that, "Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control," In your sermon, you mainly focused on how this giving of your body can protect your spouse from self-control of sexual sin specifically. Can the idea of protection of self-control be applied to other types of sins/addictions from a pleasure seeking sense (alcohol, drugs, gambling etc)? In summary, is giving of your body to protect from sin only for sexual sins, or can this also be to include other sins that seek to fill similar pleasure seeking reactions?We have created a place where you can send us your questions regarding the sermons or topics we discuss in these podcasts.

In this episode I explore how Christ defeats all powers who are opposed to God, both in heaven and on earth. I recently finished Michael Heiser's book The Unseen Real, which is a provocative analysis of divine council theory in the Bible. God created lesser spiritual beings, such as angles, many of which rebelled against him, as well as humans who also rebelled against him. The writers of the Bible all share a worldview that there are spiritual entities, some aligned with God and some opposed to Him, as a foundational assumption. Despite Heiser's excellent exegesis, he claims that Ephesians 1:21, in which Paul lists several forces over which Christ now rulers, refers only to spiritual beings, contradicting a claim I made in a recent episode on the passage. I counter by reviewing how the Greek terms Paul employs in that passage, as well as its larger rhetorical context, suggest that Paul is arguing that Jesus rules over both the kings of this earth and all spiritual beings, including those opposed to God. In fact, there is a Scriptural basis for this argument found in Isaiah 24:21, where Isaiah depicts God ultimately defeating all his enemies, both worldly kings and spiritual authorities which are in opposition to him. Paul believes that this eschatological prophecy is being fulfilled in Christ. Check out the original episode on Ephesians 1 and enjoy the conversation! Media Referenced:Ephesians 1: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-248-far-above-all-rule-and-authority-ephesians-115-23/Cody Cook on Divine Council in Paul: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-245-galatians-41-7-and-deliverance-from-this-evil-age-with-cody-cook/ 1 Corinthians 2:6-8: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-257-the-rulers-of-this-age-are-passing-away-1-corinthians-26-8/ The Protestant Libertarian Podcast is a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute and a part of the Christians For Liberty Network.

We keep our reconsidered leader arc going, this time considering the Scriptural concept of Holiness and what it has to teach us about leadership that imitates Our Lord. Dispelling misconceptions regarding the ideas of holiness, we look to the Old Testament to dwell on the concept of election (both for persons and people), and dive into the social and political situation on the ground during the New Testament to help look at Jesus's understanding of the point of holiness, and the implications this has for leadership.   Iowa Catholic Radio Network Shows:Be Not Afraid with Fr.

Today's episode expands on what David said last week about the importance of “understanding of the times” when assessing Christian engagement in political and legislative advocacy. David uses a Scriptural metaphor to explain what he sees missing in the way Christians understanding our times. And he explains how it has affected the approach to politics taken by both end-abortion-now advocates and traditional right to life advocates. At a fundamental level, they are the same.

Alan DiDio says mankind was given a 6,000-year lease on life that is on the verge of expiring. As the End Times become more intense and modern technology pushes us toward a global society, artificial intelligence could usher in a new era of knowledge and subsequent deception. Alan is the host of Revival Nation, formerly called Encounter Today, and the author of Summoning the Demon: AI, Aliens, and the Antichrist. He explains the dangers and advantages of AI, and how Christians can utilize it rather than be deceived by it. He encourages Christians to practice a “digital Sabbath,” and to prioritize in-person relationships, discipleship, and worship in an increasingly non-tangible society. “AI,” he warns, “is removing barriers to the Antichrist agenda.” We are definitely in the last days. TAKEAWAYS Any eschatology that makes you fearful is wrong and manipulative Don't be afraid - Scriptural prophecies are not here to scare us, but to prepare us and spur us to action If you are afraid, call on the name of Jesus Christians and the church cannot hide in the face of rapidly evolving technology; we must master it and use it to grow the kingdom
