Pride is the ultimate insult against God! He wants to be quite literally “God in our lives.” Saying we don’t need Him like the Edomites did in Obadiah is the ultimate sin against Him!  Do we ever act like we do not need God in our lives?[4] Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and…

This is one of the reasons I enjoy the Through The Bible program!  We read and meet little books like Obadiah that otherwise are rarely studied an appreciated. I liked the observation that “Hating Esau” wasn’t the big question. The real question was why did God Love Jacob??

“Things that were, things that are, and things that will be.” This line he used describing the events in 2 Peter sounded like something from The Lord of The Rings books.  It only seems fitting that this book wraps up with the heavens and earth being consumed in its own destruction.  Ready for Obadiah?

I agree with McGee in that “how tragic it is to be lost in this world and not know where you are going.” The tragedy is that many in the church are just as lost in “days like these!” Listen to today’s Sermon on the Apostasy.   ttb.org

I Make sense of #8 in this way. To say in Spanish “in two weeks” we say “de hoy en 15 dias.” Which translated is “in 15 days including today” but it means “in two weeks” even if  it is 7pm today! In the same way Friday was the First day of Jesus’ death, even…

The Apostate Church says, ” . .  Where is the promise of His coming.” They mock those of us that are eagerly anticipating His return as old fashioned and ignorant, and deny the Hope we have in Him.  We see this all around us today. Verse 13 was included today as a counter point to…

I loved the “Prodigal Pig” story based on these verses.  It has a special meaning for me. As a young adult I decided to give the “pig pen” a try.  Everyone there seemed to have such a good time wallowing in the mud, and I wanted to have a good time too!  The problem was,…

He talks today about intelligent men who can’t make any sense of the gospel.  This just further reinforces to me that the Holy Spirit makes the things of God clearly understandable to us! On our own we aren’t even capable of comprehending the Gospel.

I wouldn’t have thought that Lot was a “righteous man” either, but Peter makes it clear that he was, and that is why God delivered him.  But for Jesus saving me, I’m not sure I would be considered righteous either. I’m comforted and encouraged that He can deliver me out of temptation as well! Aren’t…

God says it in His Word, and McGee repeats the idea in his Sunday Sermon “Three Worlds in One.”“God does not desire that anyone should perish.” That’s plain, clear, simple, and true!

Today it sunk in.  God is in charge of Vengeance. As a Just God, Vengeance is also His Domain.Simply put, justice will be done, and I don’t need to worry about it. I also agree with McGee that we don’t really need to be interested too much with the antichrist or the satanic domain.What did…

The key word here in 2nd Peter 2:3 is covetousness.  “They use the same vocabulary, but not the same dictionary!”Have you ever heard a preacher who has the right words, but whose “gospel” doesn’t “ring true?” We have been warned!  Educate yourself about God’s Word so you have a true understanding and discernment regarding these…

We need to check the Bible teaching we hear against what the Bible says, that it be based on a body of scripture, not just one verse! That’s my Takeaway Today from the study in 2nd Peter 1:19-2:1What did you think 樂

“Swan song” or last words usually are something of utmost importance to the one giving them. Jesus’s deity and the evidence to support it was what Peter felt most important to share with us, knowing he was going to die for his beliefs. Do you think he would have done so was he not absolutely…
