Podcasts about Spirit

EVEN MORE about this episode!Are your angels already trying to communicate with you—and could you be missing the signs? How can you tell the difference between angelic guidance, intuition, and your own thoughts?Julie Ryan sits down with intuitive healer, Reiki Master Teacher, and channeler Natalie Namaste for a fascinating exploration of angels, guardian angels, spirit guides, channeling, intuition, and the signs we may be receiving from the spiritual world every day.After more than 25 years of angelic communication, Natalie shares how she experiences guidance and what she's learned about recognizing it. She and Julie explore angel numbers, synchronicities, intuitive knowing, and the different ways spiritual information can arrive through our senses.But the conversation goes much deeper.Natalie introduces a provocative possibility: What if your guardian angel isn't as separate from you as you've always believed? She explains her perspective on guardian angels across lifetimes, how angels differ from spirit guides, when to call upon each, and why some people seem to hear spiritual guidance easily while others struggle to receive anything at all.Julie and Natalie also explore how to begin opening your intuitive channel, how to identify which of your senses may be strongest for receiving information, why trauma, ancestral patterns, and past-life experiences may interfere with spiritual connection, and what channeling actually feels like from the inside.Natalie shares her experiences with Arcturian energy and elemental beings, her unusual spiritual childhood in South Africa, and why she believes humanity's relationship with consciousness is undergoing a profound shift.And near the end, Natalie channels a live message from her angels specifically for this conversation, offering guidance about moving beyond fear, living from the heart, and remembering who we truly are.If you've ever wondered whether your angels are near, questioned whether a sign was real, or heard a quiet inner voice and thought, “Was that me—or was that Spirit?” this episode may help you recognize what you've been receiving all along.Guest Biography:Natalie Namaste is a globally recognized Intuitive Healer, Reiki Master Teacher, and Channeler with more than 25 years of experience supporting thousands of people worldwide. She channels angels and guides and teaches with Humanity's Team and the Heart Coherence Collaborative alongside leading voices in consciousness.

Al Mohler recently let the internet know he finds it a bit sus when a woman talks about the Bible on a podcast. Today's guest is one of four women who just launched a podcast where they talk about the Bible. Four. Plural. It's called Bible Divas, and Anna Sieges says she plans to email Al every time an episode drops so he doesn't miss one — and maybe gets an opportunity to be moved by the Spirit, repent, and embrace the gift of half the species thinking, reflecting, teaching, and wrestling with scripture. Anna teaches Hebrew Bible at Gardner-Webb in North Carolina, and her research love is the Book of the Twelve, which most of us learned to call the minor prophets while memorizing them in order for Bible drill. She wants that name retired, and her argument is good: these are not twelve guys yelling on twelve different street corners. It's a long conversation, stitched together over generations by communities arguing with God about empire, land, and whether mercy actually extends to the people you hate. We got into locust plagues as a table of contents, Jonah as the Colbert Report, why Habakkuk asks God to fix the violence and God says sure, I'll send the Babylonians, why you're probably Assyria and not Israel when you read this stuff, and — at the end — what actual repentance would look like for the harm done to LGBTQ people by a single chapter in a widely assigned textbook. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube About our guest Dr. Anna Sieges is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Gardner-Webb University in Boiling Springs, North Carolina, where she teaches Hebrew Bible. She grew up overseas in Papua New Guinea, where her father provided counseling support for people on the mission field and her mother worked in HR — and where family Bible trivia on Saturday nights was, in her words, cutthroat. Her research centers on the Book of the Twelve, redaction criticism, and the scribal shaping of prophetic literature. She is one of the four ⁠Bible Divas⁠, with Jennifer Garcia Bashaw, Angela Parker, and Cynthia Shafer-Elliott.

Ask a first-century rabbi if biblical prophecy had ceased, and he'd say yes. Ask him if God still spoke, and he'd tell you about the Bat Kol.ABOUT THIS EPISODE:Josh, Michael and Michael explore the biblical case that prophecy operates at more than one level of authority. Scripture itself is uniquely inspired, infallible, and authoritative, while other genuine prophetic revelation can still occur without becoming Scripture. To explore this more, we turn to rabbinic Judaism and the fascinating concept of the Bat Kol.Bat Kol means "daughter of a voice." It's rabbinic Judaism's term for a diminished echo of prophecy that kept showing up long after the age of the biblical prophets. This historical evidence suggests that the idea of genuine, non-canonical revelation was not foreign to ancient Jewish thought and may provide important historical support for the continuity view of prophecy.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this September 3rd episode, Hunter guides us through Ezekiel 20–21, Psalm 11, and Revelation 8. Today's readings confront us with difficult images of rebellion, violence, judgment, and a world experiencing the consequences of turning away from God. Ezekiel announces the coming sword, while Revelation gives us the frightening imagery surrounding the opening of the seventh seal and the sounding of the trumpets. Yet right in the middle of these unsettling passages, Psalm 11 reminds us where our hope is found. The righteous Lord loves justice, and the virtuous will see his face. Then something remarkable happens in Revelation. Heaven falls silent. Before the Lamb, there is nothing left to say. Today's devotion invites us into that silence and asks us to look again at the face of God revealed in Jesus. At Calvary, Christ enters into the violence and judgment of this world, not answering violence with violence but overcoming it through self-giving, radically forgiving love. God's dream for creation is not destruction. It is reconciliation, restoration, and shalom. Even when the darkness around us seems overwhelming, we are invited to train our hearts to see what God sees and trust that Christ is making all things new. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Terror and the sword, and the face of God. How sobering these passages are. Ezekiel cries out about the sword that is coming upon a world caught up in rebellion. Revelation gives us images of terror and judgment. The prophets will not allow us to pretend that violence, idolatry, injustice, and human rebellion have no consequences. A world bent on destruction eventually experiences the fruit of its own way. But before we despair, the psalmist speaks: "The righteous Lord loves justice. The virtuous will see his face." His face. That is what God desires. Relationship. Communion. Face to face. God is not intent on destruction. God is intent on drawing his creation into the fullness of life with himself. Yet our violence, pride, fear, and idolatry blind us to his face. Then Revelation gives us this extraordinary scene. The Lamb breaks the seventh seal. And heaven falls silent. There is awe. There is mystery. There is the recognition of everything that is unfolding. Sometimes silence is the only appropriate response when we begin to see the depth of what God has done in Christ. The psalmist asks, "Why do you say to me, 'Fly like a bird to the mountains for safety'?" Where do we flee when the world seems overwhelmed by violence? Where do we go when terror and the sword seem to surround us? We fly to Christ. We fly to Calvary. That is our mountain of safety. At Calvary, the Lamb of God enters completely into the violence of his rebellious creation. And what does he do? He does not strike back. He does not answer violence with greater violence. He stretches out his hands. He forgives. Through his self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love, Jesus enters death itself and breaks its power from within. This is the face of God. Look at Jesus and see. God's dream is not endless destruction. God's dream is a world restored. Humanity reconciled. Creation healed. Enemies becoming friends. The broken made whole. The lost brought home. Shalom. Jesus has come to accomplish this, and God's dream for his creation will not fail. The darkness around us may be easy to see. Violence is easy to see. Fear is easy to see. Division and despair are easy to see. But faith trains our eyes to see something more. Faith teaches us to see what God sees. It teaches us to look at the Lamb and believe that his love is stronger than death. Paul could see the day when Christ would be all and in all. John could see a multitude gathered around the throne. The prophets could see swords becoming plowshares. They were learning to see God's dream. And so must we. Let us fix our eyes on Christ. Let us train our souls to recognize his face. Let us receive his peace, his joy, his forgiveness, and his life. And then let us go into this frightened and divided world as ambassadors of his radically reconciling love. Sometimes the appropriate response is simply silence. To stand in awe before the Lamb. To see his face. To receive his love. And then to become what we have received. 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.   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.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

Episode Overview Regional church leaders occupy a unique position: they carry a larger vision while serving local churches with vastly different needs, cultures, and challenges. In this conversation, Brian Miller talks with Jim Jansen, founder of Anchor Consulting, about why coaching may be one of the most valuable tools a regional leader can develop. Drawing from Jim's years of working with local churches, they explore how coaching can turn denominational leadership from something local pastors resist into a relationship they welcome. Key Ideas & Takeaways 1. Regional Leaders Have an Advantage Outsiders Don't Outside consultants can bring valuable expertise, but regional leaders already understand the denomination's culture, language, priorities, relationships, and history. They can see patterns across churches and connect leaders with resources and people they already know. Jim describes them as potential "inside coaches." 2. Organizational Authority Can Be an Asset—or a Liability A visit from a denominational leader can trigger the question: "What do they want?" Local leaders may expect another request for money, another program, or the latest organizational initiative. Coaching changes the posture from "Here's what we need from you" to "How can I help you?" 3. People Don't Necessarily Want Coaching—They Want Breakthroughs Jim's team began simply giving coaching away. As pastors experienced progress, encouragement, and helpful conversations, coaching began to "sell itself." The relationship changed because regional leaders were increasingly experienced as helpful rather than intrusive. 4. A Shared Vision Doesn't Require a Uniform Plan Regional leadership still has an important role in establishing vision and priorities. Jim's organization had a clear emphasis on evangelism and mission. Coaching allowed each local church to answer the question: What does that vision look like here? 5. Local Leaders Need to Own the Plan A regional leader can cast a compelling vision, but the local church ultimately has to make it its own. The pastor and congregation understand their particular people, community, opportunities, and limitations. Coaching helps them develop a plan that fits their context instead of merely implementing someone else's strategy. 6. Coaching Demonstrates Trust in Local Leadership Jim argues that regional leaders should trust that the Spirit of God is at work in local pastors and leaders. The regional leader doesn't have to determine exactly how the larger vision will be implemented everywhere. Coaching creates space for local leaders to discern how that vision should come alive in their particular setting. 7. Coaching Can Produce Organizational Fruit Jim describes having roughly one-third of ministry leaders engaged in some cadence of coaching. Over six or seven years, what felt ordinary day-to-day produced significant results. He credits the coach approach as an important foundation for the fruit and goodwill they experienced. 8. Coaching May Be the Missing Tool for Regional Leadership Regional leaders often have vision, relationships, and access but lack a reliable way to help local leaders translate vision into action. Equipping trusted regional staff with coaching skills can extend the ministry of senior denominational leaders across many churches. Coaching connects big-picture vision with local ownership, action, and accountability. Memorable Quotes & Ideas "People don't want coaching. They want the breakthroughs." "How else can I be of help to this local church?" "You could have a vision, but it's the local pastor, it's the local church, that has to not only make the vision their own, but they have to make the plan." "Have a little bit of respect for the Spirit of God at work in local leadership." "Coaching is probably the missing tool to help you extend your ministry to all the local churches." "We saw so much fruit and so much goodwill built when we began to approach things with a coaching mindset."

Bounds “Come Holy Spirit”There is one goal in intercession: Work Hard in Prayer to see the Lord prevail.2 Chronicles 7:14,”if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”You and the Lord are working together to bring His will to earth.Genesis 1:28,” God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”Learn to love to work for the Lord in prayer.Young men and women of the faith are not spectators in his kingdom – once you have said yes to Jesus, He brings you fully in to participate in His work of creation restoration. “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” — Romans 12:2The greatest accomplishment in intercession is His presence coming into places and bringing transformation for His glory.1 Corinthians 11:1,Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.”

Season 3, Episode 2In this episode, Michael and Zach continue their series through Galatians by examining Paul's forceful argument in Galatians 3:1–14. Paul begins by asking the Galatians a series of pointed questions: if they received the Spirit through faith, why would they now turn to works of the Law to complete what God began? From there, the discussion moves to Abraham, who was counted righteous by faith centuries before the Mosaic Law, showing that justification by faith is not a New Testament innovation but part of God's redemptive plan from the beginning. Michael and Zach then explore why the Law cannot justify sinners, how its demands expose humanity to the curse, and how Christ redeems His people by becoming a curse for them. The episode culminates in Paul's central contrast: righteousness is not achieved by adding human works to Christ, but received through faith in the One who bore the curse and secured the blessing promised to Abraham.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/QAYG64ep4nsMerch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stone⁠License code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com

Today Pastor Jeff shares how God's peace is a blessing we can ask for as He helps us grow in the Fruit of the Spirit and become more like Jesus. Psalm 29:11 The LORD gives his people strength; the LORD blesses his people with peace. 

We know there's a danger of handing our agency over to amentor, teacher, authority figure, practitioner, guide. And if you're the one in the room holding space, nobody taught you how to avoid creating that dynamic with your clients or students either. This is a cultural problem, not a personal failing. In this episode, Jayne unpacks the three confusions - Power versus Control, Validation versus Permission, and Guidance versus Dependency - so you can learn from someone (or mentor someone) without perpetuating the exact hierarchy you came to spiritual work to escape.BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE, YOU WILLDISCOVER:● Power is not the problem - control masquerading as the guidance is. True power expands someone else's agency and doesn't require hierarchy, dominance, or certainty. When we're connected to something greater than ourself,we can be deeply powerful while allowing complete agency in others. Control, by contrast, needs us to doubt ourselves so it can maintain its position.● Validation of direct experience is not the same as seekingexternal permission. When a teacher names what you're already perceiving (like Sarah's story of energetic bleed), they're helping you stop gaslighting yourself - not giving you permission to trust. One keeps you rooted in your owntruth - the other keeps you dependent on hierarchy and authority positioned above you.● Healthy guidance leaves us more capable of navigatingwithout that person, not less. Genuine mentorship expands our capacity to trust yourself, offers unrestrictive frameworks so we understand what we're experiencing, and asks questions that help us find your own answers. When asystem needs us to keep coming back - always one level below “mastery”, always questioning what you sense - that's covert dependency, not guidance.● The spiritual industry has a massive financial stake inkeeping us dependent on courses, certifications, and hierarchical levels. Once we believe we already have access to what we need to know and trust our own connection to Spirit, the entire gatekeeping structure collapses. Reclaiming ourpower means learning from someone without outsourcing our direct, unmediated spiritual connection to them.And while you're here, I'd love to connect on ⁠Tiktok⁠& ⁠Instagram⁠ @reikiredefined.Also, make sure to tag me in your stories @reikiredefined.Live lead & serve from the power of your own truth -Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: ⁠https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/⁠Stop absorbing your clients' energy: ⁠https://www.reikiredefined.com/stop-absorbing-your-clients-energy/⁠No cost non guru community with no hierarchy or allknowing behaviour: ⁠https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/⁠No cost 3 part workshop for energy workers: ⁠https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/⁠Essays on power, ethics & authority: UNDILUTED(a weekly round up that encourages us to question what we've inherited, trustour direct experience, and remain curious about what we know to be true): ⁠https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732⁠

Hosts Shelly and June Volk continue their series on living in "newness of life," focusing on how the daily Christian walk requires surrendering human self-reliance to allow the Holy Spirit to produce authentic spiritual fruit. Key Takeaways Defining the Christian Walk: Scriptural references to "walking" signify a total way of life—living by faith, in the Spirit, in wisdom, light, and truth. Prophetic Heart Restoration: Ezekiel 36:26–27 serves as a foundational promise where God replaces a hardened heart with a heart of flesh, enabling believers to live out His statutes through the indwelling Spirit. Unity in the Body: Rebirth into newness of life unifies believers across backgrounds (Jew and Gentile) into one body under Christ. Embracing Necessary Transition: Transitioning into a new spiritual condition can be uncomfortable or disturbing, but stepping out of old habits is essential to entering God's fullness. Scripture Links Romans 6:1–4: Buried through baptism into death to walk in newness of life. 2 Corinthians 5:17: Becoming a new creation where old things pass away. Colossians 2:6–7: Four characteristics of walking in Christ: rooted, built up, established in faith, and overflowing with gratitude. Ezekiel 36:26–27: Promise of a new heart, a new spirit, and the indwelling Holy Spirit to observe God's statutes. 2 Corinthians 5:7: Walking by faith, not by sight. Galatians 5:16: Walking by the Spirit. Ephesians 4:1: Walking in a manner worthy of the calling. Ephesians 5:15: Walking wisely. 1 John 1:7: Walking in the light. 1 John 2:6: Walking in the same manner as Jesus walked. 3 John 1:3: Walking and living in the truth. John 14:6: Jesus as the way, the truth, and the life. Support the show: https://shellyandjunevolk.com/product/partner-with-us-psalm-127-fund/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As we end our exploration of the virtues, we learn about the gifts of the Holy Spirit. These gifts perfect our virtues and increase our ability to respond to God's guidance and inspiration. The fruits of the Holy Spirit perfect us, are signs of a life lived in the Spirit, and are “the first fruits of eternal glory,” as the Catechism tells us. Our cooperation with the Holy Spirit sustains and perfects our moral life, enabling us to live a more full and joyful life. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1830-1845. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

In this Bible Story, the heavens are opened up as John baptizes Jesus. The signalling of Jesus' earthly ministry has begun, and all of history is about to be shaped forever. Then Jesus is led by the Spirit into the wilderness, where he is tempted by Satan. This story is inspired by Matthew 3:1-17, Matthew 4:1-11, Mark 1:9-13, Luke 3:21-22, Luke 4:1-13, John 1:19-34. Go to https://www.BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is Mark 1:11 from the King James Version.Episode 176: “Repent and be baptized for the Kingdom of Heaven is near” yelled John the Baptist as he preached to the people on the banks of the Jordan river. John knew that the day of The Lord was coming soon and he sought to prepare the hearts of the people for His arrival. As John was going about this mission, Jesus made His way through the crowd to be baptized by John. And though he did not fully understand why Jesus would make this request, he obeyed. As Jesus was coming up from the water, the skies opened and the people heard the audible voice of God for the first time in over four hundred years! This marked the beginning of Jesus' ministry…and His temptation.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this September 2nd episode, Hunter guides us through Ezekiel 17–19 and Revelation 7. Ezekiel gives us vivid riddles and prophetic pictures of Israel's history, its broken covenants, and the consequences of choosing its own way. Yet running through these difficult chapters is an important word about responsibility, repentance, and God's desire to bring life out of what appears hopeless. Then Revelation gives us an extraordinary vision. John sees a multitude so vast that no one can count them, gathered from every nation, tribe, people, and language. They stand together before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white and singing the song of salvation. Who are these people? And how did they get there? Today's devotion invites us to see that they are not standing before God because they successfully hid their failures or managed to make themselves worthy. They have been washed, healed, and clothed by the Lamb. Their old coverings of shame, fear, reputation, and striving have been exchanged for the life of Christ. This is our invitation too. We can stop hiding, stop striving to make ourselves acceptable, and receive the love that makes us new. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Who are these people dressed in white? And why does John take such care to describe them? John looks and sees a vast crowd, far too great to count. They come from every nation. Every tribe. Every people. Every language. They are standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes with palm branches in their hands. And together they are singing: "Salvation comes from our God who sits on the throne and from the Lamb!" But who are they? One of the elders tells John that these are the ones who have come through great suffering. They have washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb and made them white. It is a strange and beautiful image. They are dressed in white, but not because they managed to keep themselves clean. They stand where they stand because of what the Lamb has done for them. They once knew hunger and thirst. Now they are satisfied. They once knew tears and sorrow. Now every tear is being wiped away. They once knew what it was to feel exposed, vulnerable, ashamed, and alone. Now they are sheltered. They are known. They belong. They are loved. And perhaps this is one of the great invitations of the gospel. We spend so much of our lives trying to find something with which to clothe ourselves. We clothe ourselves in our accomplishments. We clothe ourselves in reputation. We clothe ourselves in religion. We clothe ourselves in being right. We clothe ourselves in the approval of other people. We try to cover the parts of ourselves that we fear others might see. We hide our wounds. We hide our failures. We hide our shame. We keep adding layers, hoping eventually we will feel safe. But none of these garments can give us the life we are looking for. The people John sees have let those old garments go. They have come before God as they really are. And the Lamb has done for them what they could never do for themselves. He has made them clean. He has given them life. He has clothed them in himself. That is why they sing. Their song is not about what they have accomplished. Their song is about what God has done. "Salvation comes from our God who sits on the throne and from the Lamb!" This is good news for us today. You do not have to hide. You do not have to manufacture a version of yourself that you think God will finally accept. You do not have to cover your shame with achievement, religion, success, or the approval of others. You can come as you are. The Lamb has stepped forward for you. The Lamb has given himself for you. The Lamb clothes you in his own life and love. And notice who is standing there. Every nation. Every tribe. Every people. Every language. This is the great family God is gathering. The Lamb is not building a small tribe of people who look alike, think alike, speak alike, or come from the same place. He is gathering humanity. And together this innumerable multitude discovers what is true. They are known. They are sheltered. They are loved. Their hunger will not have the final word. Their thirst will not have the final word. Their suffering will not have the final word. Even their tears will not have the final word. The Lamb who stands at the center of the throne will be their Shepherd. 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.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260902dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. Romans 8:23 Groan With Hope The Bible calls the blessings we receive as Christians (for example, the peace of forgiveness) the “firstfruits.” The full harvest is coming. We have not experienced all the blessings that God promised. Therefore, we still battle temptations and fight our sinful nature. We still feel the aches of aging bodies. Because sin has left its mark on us, we groan. But the Christian’s groan is different. The world hopes things might get better. The Christian groans with certainty. We know things will get better. Our groaning is not the cry of someone abandoned by God. It is the longing of a child waiting to go home. The apostle Paul says we wait for “the redemption of our bodies.” What a wonderful promise! God is not interested only in saving our souls. Jesus redeemed the whole person. The same body that grows tired and eventually dies will be raised in glory. On the Last Day, Christ will transform our lowly bodies to be like his glorious body. No disease. No disability. No pain. No death. Only perfect life in the presence of our Savior. How can we be so sure? Because Jesus has already walked this path. He groaned under the weight of our sin. He endured the agony of the cross. His body was laid in a grave. But on the third day, he rose. His resurrection is God’s guarantee that ours is coming. His resurrection was the firstfruit of others to come. Until then, we do not pretend life is easy. We bring our griefs, disappointments, and fears to our Savior. We groan and pray fervently. And we wait eagerly, knowing that every day brings us one step closer to the moment when our groans are drowned out by the song of victory that God’s children will one day sing forever. Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank you for making me your child through faith in Jesus. When I grow weary under the burdens of this life, strengthen my hope as I wait for the resurrection of my body and the joy of living forever in your presence. Through Jesus Christ, my risen Savior.

The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com Garth Heckman CREATE   We see the success, but I think we all enjoy the “early create” stage. Any success starts with creation.    BE LIKE DAD Humanity is made in God's image, including creative capacity Genesis 1:27 — being made in God's image includes reflecting His nature, and part of that nature is creativity itself.  humans build, invent, compose, and imagine because we're stamped with the image of a Creator God.     It runs through out the bible. Gen. 1 Creation / Curse John 1 Jesus is the creator / came to break the curse The REZ is framed as a “Re-creation” not just resuscitation  2 Cor. 5:17 anyone in him is a new creation The curse and redemption are bookend in OT-NT Rev. 21,22 speak of a New Heaven and New Earth   CREATION IS STAMPED ALL OVER THE BIBLE!      …And we are called to emulate that trait of our Father!    HOW DID DAD CREATE God creates through His word, not raw material (ex nihilo creation) Genesis 1 repeatedly uses "and God said" — He speaks reality into existence       Proverbs 8:30 describes wisdom as being beside God "like a craftsman" (or "constantly" depending on translation), rejoicing in His presence and rejoicing in the inhabited world. Some translations render this as wisdom being God's "delight" day by day. This has strong creative/imaginative overtones — a Creator who delights in the process of creating, not just the outcome.     Psalm 104: 24 "How many are your works, LORD! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures." The sheer variety of creation (over 350,000 known species of beetles alone, if you want a modern illustration)     God does not expect perfection - just creation!  THERE IS NO 1 PERFECT BEETLE     True creativity does not focus on one perfect solution… one perfect beetle. But rather numerous solutions   **How to get great ideas by Jack Foster:  They asked students to come up with on great idea for a Swiss knife, they had all week to do it. They stumbled, its hard, its frustrating… they wrecked seeking perfection. So they changed their strategy. You have to come up with at least 10 and you only have your lunch break to do it. THEY ENJOYED IT MORE CREATIVE  MANY CAME UP WITH WAY MORE THAN 10 IDEAS     HOW DO WE CREATE - AS SEEN IN SCRIPTURE We create what's in us… **Remember when people hate you - they don't hate you, that just what's in them.   When people gossip When people attack your character When people steal When people posture above you When people feel insecure around you When people judge you ITS NOT YOU - THAT IS WHATS IN THEM   When we create - we create what is in us.  So make sure you are IN CHRIST!    The most successful people are not the smartest - they are the most creative… proven!    YOU DON'T NEED ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE HOLY SPIRIT.    WHY DO WE CREATE Its what we were made for…   In any activity that we find ourselves aligned/focused/flow **it is because we are operating something we were created for. AND WHEN WE CREATE - IT IS A DOUBLE BONUS - because we are creating - which is what we were created for.      NOW WATCH THIS Exodus 31:1-5 — God tells Moses He has called a man named Bezalel by name, and then says this: "I have filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge, and with all kinds of skills — to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set stones, to work in wood, and to engage in all kinds of crafts.”   Stop and let that sink in. The first time scripture explicitly says someone was "filled with the Spirit of God," it's not a prophet, a king, It's not a warrior. It's a craftsman. An artist. A designer. God fills a man with His Spirit specifically to carve, engrave, and build beautiful things for the tabernacle.     NOW - here is the trifecta: We were created to create to bring attention to the creator!      **Lou Little, a football coach at Georgetown and later Columbia University tells the story of a young player. Not very gifted, but always tried hard. He sat on the bench most every game, but the coach was fond of him. This young mans father came to every game… one day the coach gets a telegram that this young mans father had passed away in the night. He tells the young man to take that game off - The boy refuses. Their team in the middle of the 3rd quarter is getting killed, the boy kept asking to go in, at this point the coach says… what can it hurt. The young man goes in and plays like he is an NFL superstar. After the game the coach asked him the difference. The young man said even though my dad came to every game he was blind - so today was the first day my dad could actually see me play.    What if we looked at creativity this way: God is watching us create so that we can bring him attention.   In business In art In technology In agriculture In social sciences In finance In music In sport What if we looked at it as if we are creating attention to the father.     EVERYONE WANTS TO MAKE THEIR DAD PROUD. How? By being creative in how we perform.

I have typically read Paul's letter to Rome like it was an essay written for the church at large for all times and for all places.  In fact Paul, Jesus' apostle to the nations, in about 57 A.D., wrote a pastoral letter to several house churches in Rome. He mentions 26 members of the Roman church by name in chapter 16.  He knew a lot about the churches and he was very concerned with simmering divisions within those churches.  The churches were composed of a great diversity of folks, Jews and Gentiles, slave and free, as well as male and female.  A dispute was heating up in the church between a group that Paul called the "Weak," primarily Jewish believers, and a group that Paul called the "Strong," primarily Gentile believers.  Neither group had much use for the other and that was the problem!  He had strong words for both groups. The issues have to do with the place of circumcision, sabbath keeping, and the Jewish food laws in the life of the Churches.  Paul used eleven chapters to give the churches a solid Christ centered foundation on which to live together as "One People of God."  His overriding message was that one church, composed of Jews and Gentiles, living to the Glory of God, is the will of the LORD God.  He declared in chapter 12, "All of us are members one of another."  He followed up this declarative in chapter 15 with the imperative:  "Welcome each other as Christ has welcomed you, for the Glory of God." Tom Wright was recently asked, "What about today's church would most disturb the apostle Paul?" To which he replied. "Our many, many divisions and our LACK OF CONCERN about it." Come on this journey with us through Paul's wonderful letter which invites us to rediscover the "Power of Oneness."

Fr. Eric Nicolai preached this meditation on September 1, 2026, at the start of the new Academic year at Hawthorn School for Girls in Toronto.Picture Jesus now coming forward: “And there was handed to him the scroll of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written…"Then with a sure voice:“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor…to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor (Isaiah 61:1–2) from Luke 4:17.God's gracious “year”—a jubilee of mercy, liberation, healing and restoration. We are now at the beginning of the academic year. A new moment of hope for all of us. How will we frame this hope?

In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Alisha Searcy of Center for Strong Public Schools and retired Minnesota Supreme Court Justice Barry Anderson speak with historian and legal scholar Edward Larson, author of Declaring Independence: Why 1776 Matters. He explores how the thirteen colonies moved from resistance to British rule to the Declaration of Independence. Prof. Larson examines the influence of Thomas Paine's Common Sense and other revolutionary writings on the cause of liberty. He also discusses the political debates within the Continental Congress and John Adams's leadership in the fight for independence. He turns to the military challenges facing George Washington and the Continental Army in 1776. Larson also examines the contradictions between the Revolution's ideals of liberty and slavery in colonial America. He explains Thomas Jefferson's role in drafting the Declaration of Independence, including his original draft's condemnation of the transatlantic slave trade. Additionally, Larson considers why 1776 still matters 250 years later. He discusses how studying American history and law can help us better understand and preserve the nation's founding ideals. In closing, Prof. Larson reads a passage from Declaring Independence: Why 1776 Matters.

How do they know you follow Christ? It's easy to say we believe in Jesus, attend church, know Scripture, and identify as a Christian but is there evidence of Him in the way we actually live? In this episode of Let It B, we're taking an honest look at what it means to be known by our fruit.  The fruit of the Spirit isn't just something we talk about on Sundays. It should show up in our everyday lives in our relationships, our decisions, our reactions, our character, and especially in the moments when we're tested. What happens when someone disrespects you? When you're disappointed? When you're hurt? When nobody is watching? When obedience means standing alone? We'll talk about what it means to be in the world but not of the world, to be set apart without becoming self-righteous, and to be okay with looking different when following Christ means refusing to compromise. Through the stories of Joseph and Daniel, we'll look at what it means to remain faithful when doing the right thing comes at a cost. But this episode isn't about perfection. It's about transformation. Because the question isn't simply, "Do you call yourself a Christian?" The question is: Where's the evidence? If someone watched your life for 30 days without hearing you say the word "Christian," what would they conclude about who you belong to? Your fruit reveals what has taken root in you. Scriptures referenced: 2 Corinthians 3 : 16–18 John 15 : 4–5, 14–16 Matthew 7 : 16–23 Galatians 5 : 22–23 John 17 : 14–18 Genesis 39 Daniel 1 & 6 Matthew 25 : 31–46

Greater Glory – Episode Description The Dawn of a Fresh Anointing – Part 1 In this opening installment, Apostles Bill & Cara Nordeen usher viewers into the breaking dawn of a fresh move of God. Part 1 reveals how the Lord releases new anointing at the threshold of transition—when old cycles close and new assignments begin. As the Spirit moves, He brings light that awakens identity, exposes hindrances, and ignites the gifts that have been lying dormant. This episode emphasizes the prophetic moment we are living in: a time when God is causing His people to rise with new clarity, new strength, and new spiritual sensitivity. Viewers will learn how to recognize the first light of a fresh anointing and how to posture themselves to receive it. Expect impartation, revelation, and a stirring call to step into the new day God is opening. "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning." (Psalm 30:5) The morning of your anointing has come. Share this broadcast with your friends and get ready to experience the unlimited power of God!

With testing and scrutinization upon spiritual leaders within the NAR comes pushback and criticism from proponents of those leaders being tested. Claims of being judgmental and critical heresy hunters are common things lofted at those who would dare to question the anointed ones. Now, some self-proclaimed prophets are issuing words of judgment upon those who righteously judge such leaders. Join me as we apply 1 John 4:1 to a modern-day prophet making such claims.

https://square.link/u/UHRU92rp - Donate HereToday's reading takes us to Genesis 4, where sin moves from the garden into the family, and from rebellion into false religion. Cain brings the work of his hands, while Abel comes through the way of sacrifice. Cain's way is the way of human effort, human pride, and human satisfaction—but God calls him to come the right way.Genesis 4 reminds us that sin is crouching at the door before it ever shows up in our hands. Before Cain murdered his brother, resentment was already growing in his heart. Yet even in the middle of rage, lies, wandering, and fear, God preserves another seed. So today, read Genesis 4 and remember: human sin cannot cancel God's promise, and true life is found only through the Word of God, the work of Christ, and the witness of the Spirit.

We learn this week that maintaining a soft heart towards God is crucial to being led by him. Our hearts are essential to life because they are the soil where every decision in life grows. So, it is important to keep your heart open to the truth and to being led by the Spirit; but it is a choice we have to make. Seeing how God continues to talk with us, we learn that heart to heart communication is the most effective; its how He reached us first and its how we can reach others the best. But a crucial requirement to be able to talk heart to heart effectively is the Holy Spirit. Abiding in Him and His guidance allows us to be truthful while also being gentle with others. Ultimately it takes opening our hearts to open our lives. - Key Verses // Proverbs 4:23, Matthew 13:15 - For Sermon Notes, the Connect Card, and our other online resources: https://linktr.ee/Celebrationchurchlive

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260902dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. Romans 8:23 Groan With Hope The Bible calls the blessings we receive as Christians (for example, the peace of forgiveness) the “firstfruits.” The full harvest is coming. We have not experienced all the blessings that God promised. Therefore, we still battle temptations and fight our sinful nature. We still feel the aches of aging bodies. Because sin has left its mark on us, we groan. But the Christian’s groan is different. The world hopes things might get better. The Christian groans with certainty. We know things will get better. Our groaning is not the cry of someone abandoned by God. It is the longing of a child waiting to go home. The apostle Paul says we wait for “the redemption of our bodies.” What a wonderful promise! God is not interested only in saving our souls. Jesus redeemed the whole person. The same body that grows tired and eventually dies will be raised in glory. On the Last Day, Christ will transform our lowly bodies to be like his glorious body. No disease. No disability. No pain. No death. Only perfect life in the presence of our Savior. How can we be so sure? Because Jesus has already walked this path. He groaned under the weight of our sin. He endured the agony of the cross. His body was laid in a grave. But on the third day, he rose. His resurrection is God’s guarantee that ours is coming. His resurrection was the firstfruit of others to come. Until then, we do not pretend life is easy. We bring our griefs, disappointments, and fears to our Savior. We groan and pray fervently. And we wait eagerly, knowing that every day brings us one step closer to the moment when our groans are drowned out by the song of victory that God’s children will one day sing forever. Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank you for making me your child through faith in Jesus. When I grow weary under the burdens of this life, strengthen my hope as I wait for the resurrection of my body and the joy of living forever in your presence. Through Jesus Christ, my risen Savior.

Join Pastor Putnam as we begin a powerful new Wednesday series, “The Fruit of the Spirit.” This opening message focuses on the foundational fruit of the Spirit—love—and challenges us to consider what is truly growing in our lives. The Holy Spirit is not simply meant to change how we worship; He is meant to transform how we live and how we love. Through Scripture, Pastor Putnam explores what it means for God's love to become our love—affecting our relationships, our attitudes, our patience, our forgiveness, and the way we treat those around us. As we begin this series, we are challenged with a simple but powerful question: “What is the Holy Ghost producing in me?” To learn more about what God is doing in Sheboygan County and beyond, visit us at posc.church!

“Eat my flesh and drink my blood.” If you've ever read John 6 and thought, "What does that even mean?!" You are not alone. Understanding this phrase Jesus used becomes a doorway into communion, the Word of God, and the kind of spiritual discernment Scripture says we must have if we want to truly understand Jesus' voice.We lean into the Bible's plain contrast between the natural mind and the Spirit-led mind, using 1 Corinthians to explain why spiritual truth can sound like “foolishness” when we try to process it only through human logic. Then we get practical about the daily war between flesh and spirit, pulling from Galatians 5 and Romans 7 to name the struggle, the stumbles, and the hope: God's hand still reaches out and says, get up. Our reasoning matters, but it has to submit to the supremacy of God's Word and God's will.From there, we build the meaning of communion from the ground up: Deuteronomy 8, manna in the wilderness, and “man shall not live by bread alone.” That foundation leads straight into Jesus as the bread of life, the manifest Word made flesh, and why His shocking language about flesh and blood is calling us to something spiritual, life-giving, and covenant-deep.

Tim leads the community in a musical exploration of joy, arguing that after so many nights spent on hardship and catalyst, we have earned an evening of levity. Opening with the question are you happy? and a story about three sons who each try to buy their mother's happiness, he establishes that no gift cannot become a burden and no burden cannot become a gift. He then reframes joy itself: drawing on Doug's earlier teaching on the rhythm of being — emanation filled with yearning, return filled with longing, reunion filled with rejoicing — Tim proposes that the entire circulation of beingness occurs in the medium of joy, and that joy is being itself. What we seek when we seek joy is our own essence, sounded at our own unique frequency. The musical frame carries the evening. A single note on a staff stands for one incarnation; strung across lifetimes it becomes a melody. Played all at once it would be noise — which is why time is a gift, metering the score so it can be enjoyed in stages. Tim goes to Ra's counsel on revitalization (meditation, acceptance of limitations, joy through association with others and the beauty as of the singing, and contact with second-density life, especially trees) and then to Ra's musical language for chakra work: balance, tuning, and harmony. He develops each through musical analogy — the imbalanced orchestra, the guitar that must be tuned daily, the choir that sings in harmony rather than unison — and lands on Ra's description of the mind/body/spirit complex as a tone poem rather than a machine. The session's metaphysical core is sympathetic resonance: Ra's statement that the linkage between certain sound vibratory complexes and the creation is mathematical, or that of the ratio, and may be considered musical — and that when certain sounds are correctly vibrated, the creation sings. Tim examines 432 Hz and the 136.1 Hz frequency associated with Om, tracing the latter's derivation from the Earth's orbital period, and plays it on a Tibetan cymbal. He closes with transposition: keys can be changed, the Earth is changing key into fourth density, and we are here as co-composers to make the song our own. Rather than describe this, he performs it — singing his own rewritten lyrics to "One Song" from Snow White. Community reflections follow on the necessity of time for experience, sympathetic resonance as spiritual attraction, the harmonic series and the densities, tuning forks and daily practice, and perichoresis as the circle dance of the Creator. Key References Ra, Session 25.2 — Carla's question on how best to revitalize herself; Ra names meditation, acceptance of limitations, experiences of joy through association with others and with the beauty as of the singing, and exercise with contact with second-density life forces, especially trees. Ra, Session 54.8 — The precision of energy-center alignment lies in fluid and plastic placement rather than systematic arrangement; the mind/body/spirit complex is not a machine but what you might call a tone poem. Ra, Session 54.15 — Beyond activating each energy center, it is a priority to refine the balances so that each tone of the chord of total vibratory beingness resonates in clarity, tune, and harmony with each other energy; this balancing, tuning, and harmonizing is most central to the adept. Ra, Session 75.26 — The linkage between Hebrew and Sanskrit sound vibratory complexes and the creation is mathematical, or that of the ratio; it may be considered musical. Ra, Session 75.27 — Sympathetic resonance: when certain sounds are correctly vibrated, the creation sings. Q'uo — Joy as a living energy, as powerful and effective a teacher as sorrow. (Quoted by Tim from a Q'uo channeling; source session not verified against project files.) Ephesians 5:18–19 — Be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Isaiah — Songs of everlasting joy. John Stuart Mill — Ask yourself whether you are happy and you cease to be. Joseph Campbell — Follow your bliss. Alan Watts — Rushing toward enlightenment as telling the conductor to play the concert too fast. Hans Cousto — Derivation of 136.1 Hz (C-sharp) from the Earth's orbital period. Doug's teaching on the rhythm of being — Emanation, return, and reunion; the circulation of beingness occurring in the medium of joy. Doug's three faces of joy — Joy at the precipice of creation, joy in creating, joy in experiencing. Music discussed: "Over the Rainbow" (Harold Arlen), transposed from A-flat to G by Israel Kamakawiwoʻole; "One Song" from Snow White, performed by Tim with original rewritten lyrics. Coming Up Next Week: DeMarcus presents on Yahweh — who they are, their involvement with our planet from the beginning of third density, the Martian transfer, the Exodus and the Israelite narratives, and what continues today.

Who is the Holy Spirit? What is His role in our lives? And what does it really mean to live in relationship with Him?This week on The Praying Wife Podcast, Corain kicks off a brand-new series focused on the Holy Spirit. Before diving deeper into hearing His voice, being led by Him, and experiencing His power, this episode goes back to the foundation — understanding who the Holy Spirit is.The Holy Spirit isn't simply a feeling, a moment during worship, or something reserved for certain believers. He is our Helper, Comforter, Teacher, Advocate, and the Spirit of God dwelling within us. Throughout this episode, Corain walks through Scripture to help us better understand His person, His purpose, and the incredible gift we have been given through His presence in our lives.Whether you've walked with God for years or still have questions about the Holy Spirit, this episode is an invitation to know Him more deeply and make room for His presence, guidance, and work in your everyday life.As we begin this new month, our prayer is simple: "Come, Holy Spirit, come." ❤️Enjoyed This Episode or Have Feedback?

What happens when pastors replace the authority of Scripture with mysticism, politics, and speculation? The Smith and Rowland Show examines why a clear understanding of the whole counsel of God matters for sound doctrine and biblical prophecy. In this episode, Alan and Jeff respond to a Prophecy News Watch article titled, "God Had a Wife: When Pastors Trade Scripture for Mysticism and Fables." They discuss claims surrounding Asherah, ancient paganism, and the reinterpretation of biblical history through modern cultural ideas. The conversation also focuses on the Centurion's faith, the authority of God's spoken Word, and the connection between Scripture and the presence of God. Allen and Jeff explain why faith doesn't depend on emotional experiences or a demand for visible signs before obedience. They also warn that separating the Spirit from the Word can lead to confusion and false teaching. The hosts explain how dispensational Bible study provides a framework for understanding the whole counsel of God, including prophecy, Israel's promises, the gospel of grace, and eschatology. They discuss why isolated verses, "verse of the day" readings, and incomplete Bible study can lead to misinterpretation. This episode also examines Paul's warnings in Acts 20, 1 Timothy, and Colossians about wolves, false teachers, fables, endless genealogies, and other doctrines that distract from godly edification. Allen and Jeff stress the value of learning Scripture patiently, "precept upon precept, line upon line," so believers can recognize error and remain grounded in God's Word. Watch Episode 968 of The Smith and Rowland Show for a direct discussion about biblical authority, dispensationalism, prophecy, and the importance of understanding Scripture as a unified message. #Dispensationalism #BibleProphecy #BiblicalTruth #ChristianDoctrine #SmithAndRowland
