Introduction to 1 John
March 23, 2022 11:00 - 32 minutes - 29.4 MBIt is something of an anomaly that 1 John with his simple Greek is undoubtedly one of the most difficult books that you will find in the New Testament. It is an extremely difficult book. It is also interesting that first-year Greek students study 1 John because the Greek, generally speaking, is comparatively simple but, it is a hard, hard book. There is a great deal of conflict about what this little 5-chapter Epistle is saying. It is our privilege and our goal is to cover 1 John in its enti...
The Case for Territorial Spirits, part 2
March 10, 2022 12:00 - 17 minutes - 16.1 MBWhen looking to the Scriptures for insight about the so-called territorial spirits, there is not much other than a few important passages that discuss, and affirm, the reality of demonic spirits associated with territories, especially nations. Much has been written on this much-debated topic, and they frequently refer to Daniel 10 as a chapter that speaks explicitly of territorial spirits. A key passage for their existence is found in Daniel 10 where the spirit princes of Persia and Greece a...

Biblical Support for the Trinity Conclusion
February 17, 2022 12:00 - 31 minutes - 28.5 MBThe purpose of this episode is to show that while the word or related words to Trinity do not appear in Scripture, this doctrine did not appear out of thin air but is found throughout Scripture. This post will focus on Trinitarian text (passages) that are prevalent throughout the New Testament and provide a basis/foundation for a doctrine of the Trinity. I am not arguing that the word Trinity appears in some obscure form or is found in a Greek word that we no longer know about, but the idea/...

More information on my depression book
January 21, 2022 12:00 - 14 minutes - 13.4 MBThe time in my life when I faced male postpartum depression was one of the hardest battles I have faced. Maybe you are in a season of suffering too and whether that is male PPD or not, I want you to know that you are loved and not alone. God knows you and loves you. I hope this bite-sized look at these broad topics will be an encouragement to you.

Hebrews 13 Chapter Summary
January 03, 2022 12:00 - 14 minutes - 13 MBOutline: One way this chapter can be broken down is as follows: A Right Response to Fellow Christians (vv. 1–9) To Christians with special needs (vv. 1–3) To the family (vv. 4–6) Within the church (vv. 7–9) A Right Response to God (vv. 10–16) A Right Response to Church Leaders (v. 17) Praying for one Another (vv. 18–21) Genuine Affection among Believers (vv. 22–25) For more information about this show, which includes additional notes and details, please visit the show page here o...
Hebrews 13:17-25 – Focusing on the Great Shepherd
December 27, 2021 12:00 - 13 minutes - 12.6 MBKey Takeaways: May our focus be on knowing the Great Shepherd, who will equip us with everything good that we may do His will. He will work in us to make us pleasing that we may glorify God. Our requests for the prayers of others should spark our earnest prayers for them. Gracious words build fellowship among believers For more information about this show, which includes additional notes and details, please visit the show page here or visit our home page at SeekingourGod.com Music Li...
Hebrews 13:7-16 – Stability and Worship
December 13, 2021 12:00 - 16 minutes - 15.5 MBKey Takeaways: In this section, the labor of love is seen in the stability of Christ (vv. 7-9), in the separation from Judaism (vv. 10-14), and in the sacrifice of worship (vv. 15-16). The sacrifices with which God is pleased are not the earthly sacrifices on an earthly altar, but the spiritual sacrifices that come from a pure heart. Be a leader like the Lord was. He was consistent in His walk before God. Commitment, worship, praise, and kindness to all people are spiritual responses God...
Hebrews 13:1-6 – Instructions for caring for others and the family
December 02, 2021 12:00 - 13 minutes - 12.4 MBKey Takeaways: Christians are to help the needy, practice purity in family life, and follow the faith of Jesus. One of the cures for covetousness is to be content in Christ recognizing His presence and all sufficiency We do not have to fear because the Lord is with us. Whatever happens to us in this world, the Lord is with us. Maybe the result is not what we want, but God will always be with us and has a greater plan For more information about this show, which includes additional notes a...
Hebrews 12 Chapter Overview
November 22, 2021 12:00 - 13 minutes - 12.5 MBThe one theme that runs through this chapter is endurance (Heb. 12:1 [“patience”], 2–3, 7). The Jewish believers who received this letter were getting weary and wanted to give up; but the writer encouraged them to keep moving forward in their Christian lives, like runners on a track (Phil. 3:12–14). The writer pointed out three divine resources (the example of Christ, the assurance of God’s love, and the enablement of God’s grace) that encourage a Christian to keep going when the situation i...
Hebrews 12:25-29 – The Fifth Warning Passage in Hebrews
November 16, 2021 12:00 - 12 minutes - 11.3 MBKey Takeaways: What shall we do as we live in a shaking world? Listen to God speak and obey Him. Receive grace day by day to serve Him. While others are being frightened, Christians can be confident! Even in difficult times, there should be a spirit of awe, reverence, and thankfulness. In our worship, we should be thankful, worship God acceptably in a manner pleasing to Him, and with reverence and awe for His greatness and mighty power Since God promises believers an unshakeable and eter...
Hebrews 12:18-24 – A Contrast and An Explanation for the Ethics
October 25, 2021 11:00 - 13 minutes - 12.4 MBIn verses 18-21, the writer vividly pictured the situation at Mount Sinai where the Old Covenant was given and its awesomeness and fearful nature were described (cf. Ex. 19:9–23; Deut. 9:8–19). In verses 22-24, the realities that relate to New Covenant people and to which they have come are even more impressive because they are “heavenly.” Not only is there the heavenly city, but there are also heaven-related beings, both the “myriad of angels” and the people (“spirits of the righteous made...
Hebrews 12:12-17 – The Call to Renewed Spiritual Vitality
October 18, 2021 11:00 - 14 minutes - 13.4 MBKey Takeaways: The example of Jesus, and the assurance of God’s love, certainly should encourage us to endure in the difficult Christian race Believers must show fresh commitment and a renewed concern for one another. What sins will rob us of the enabling of God’s grace? These verses tell us: lack of spiritual diligence, bitterness against others (see Deut. 29:18), sexual immorality, and living for the world and the flesh For more information about this show, which includes additional no...
Hebrews 12:4-11 – Endurance of Hope
October 07, 2021 11:00 - 11 minutes - 10.6 MBKey Takeaways: The Father does not enjoy having to discipline His children, but the benefits afterward make the chastening an evidence of His love. God’s discipline is proof that we are indeed His children. The writer viewed the trials of the Christian life as spiritual discipline that could help a believer mature. Instead of trying to escape the difficulties of life, the writer says we should rather be “exercised” by them so that we might grow (Heb. 12:11). When we are suffering, it is e...
Hebrews 12:1-3 - The Endurance of Hope
October 04, 2021 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.7 MBKey Takeaways: Run with endurance and perseverance the race set before us in full dependence on God Do a self check. Examine your life and ask for God’s help to identify the obstacles and the sin in our lives that try to deter us from a deeper life with God Jesus is the supreme example of faith. He created it and perfected it. He blazed the trail to show us the way to go. Let us keep our eyes only on Him Jesus endured so much and more than we could possibly imagine. Remember Jesus and ho...
Hebrews 11 Overview
September 17, 2021 11:00 - 8 minutes - 7.84 MBFaith enables us to turn from the approval of the world and seek only the approval of God. If God is glorified by delivering His people, He will do it. If He sees fit to be glorified by not delivering His people, then He will do that. But we must never conclude that the absence of deliverance means a lack of faith on the part of God’s children. Faith looks to the future, for that is where the greatest rewards are found. The people named in this chapter (and those unnamed) did not receive “t...
Hebrews 11:30-40– The Few, the Many, and the Vindication of Faith
September 13, 2021 11:00 - 13 minutes - 12.1 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Faith in God and His promises enabled the Old Testament saints to hold onto His promises and experience God in the hardest of circumstances Faith in God does not guarantee comfort in this world. But this faith has amazing rewards in the world to come. Faith led believers to experience God’s better blessing. No matter how it looks in the moment, God has provided something better for us. (v. 39-40) For more information about this show, which includes additional notes and det...
Hebrews 11:23-29– The Faith of Moses
September 07, 2021 11:00 - 14 minutes - 13 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: As the adopted son of the Egyptian princess, Moses could have led an easy life in the palace. But his faith moved him to refuse that kind of life. He chose to identify with God’s suffering people. True faith causes a believer to hold the right values and make the right decisions. Moses identified with the Jewish slaves. Men and women of faith often have to bear reproach and suffering. The Apostles suffered for their faith. The Christian life is not easy, but God will help us...
Hebrews 11:17-22– The Ancestors of Israel
August 24, 2021 15:48 - 9 minutes - 9.05 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Abraham expected God to do something He had never done before and all on the basis of His word God is beyond all understanding. Do not confine Him to a box or to work in a way our feeble minds can understand. God is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think As with these ancestors of faith, the promises of God may not be fulfilled in our lifetime. But we can trust that God will work and fulfill His promises in His perfect timing. Whatever your age, work ...
Hebrews 11:8-16 – The Faith of Abraham and Sarah
August 09, 2021 11:00 - 14 minutes - 13.4 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: When God called Abraham to pick up and move, he did it without question. May we do better about trusting God fully and not arguing or wrestling with Him. May we have that faith to follow wherever God leads. No matter what we are going through, we must endure and persevere in the faith. We must hold on to the promises of God, cling to Him, and remember this is not our home. Our home is with God and what a great place it is. In spite of our failures and failings, God can use ...
Hebrews 11:1-7 – The Description of Faith
August 04, 2021 11:00 - 16 minutes - 15.4 MBKey Takeaways: Verses 1-3 are a description of faith, not a definition of it Faith brings a confidence in God’s promises and shows trust in His character The actions of the Old Testament saints show that faith pleases God and that He rewards all who seek Him Two convictions characterize the lives of believers: (1) they must believe that God exists. (2) Believer's must believe that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. Faith is the difference between an acceptable offering and one tha...
Hebrews 10 Overview
July 27, 2021 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.7 MBThe writer of Hebrews knew that Christians would find power in Christ’s permanent sacrifice. The writer had seen the ineffectiveness of Old Testament sacrifices (Heb. 10:1–4), but the author had also witnessed that Christ’s sacrifice produced long-lasting changes which prompted new life in His followers. Christ’s sacrifice demonstrated a chosen commitment to follow God’s will (10:5–10). His sacrifice did the job because it obtained forgiveness for believer’s in Jesus (10:11–18), unlike the J...
Hebrews 10:32-39 – The Renewed Encouragement to all who persevere
July 21, 2021 13:35 - 14 minutes - 13.5 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: The readers had been willing to suffer reproach and persecution. When they were not being persecuted themselves, they courageously identified with the other Christians who were in danger. At that time, they had great confidence and hope; but now they were in danger of casting away that confidence and going back into their old religion. The secret of victory was in their faith and endurance. They patiently trusted God through their suffering. The believer who lives by faith ...
Hebrews 10:26-31 – The Renewed Warning: The Danger of Despising
July 12, 2021 11:00 - 18 minutes - 17.2 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: As believers, we have an assurance that “if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins” (1 John 1:9a). The New Testament is quick to offer forgiveness for all types of sins for people who confess and repent. Anyone who rejected the sacrifice of Christ for sins would not find any other means of handling sin. We can never repay our debt. It keeps growing. Only Christ, not works, can forgive us and give us life Those who reject God and will exper...
Hebrews 10:19-25 – The exhortation of faith, hope, and love
July 06, 2021 11:00 - 15 minutes - 14.3 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Since we have such a great High Priest, let us make the most of this and consistently be before God. We can approach God with a sincere heart and full assurance of faith. We in Christ may approach God's throne with confidence. Perfect cleansing in Christ makes this possible. Let us encourage one another daily and show them love For more information about this show, which includes additional notes and details, please visit the show page here or visit our home page at Seekin...
Hebrews 10:11-18 – Perfect Standing before God
June 29, 2021 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.3 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Hebrews is simply about Jesus and exalting Him Jesus is the final, ultimate, and only solution to the sin problem. Jesus paid it all. The Holy Spirit is the ultimate witness and inspired God’s Word. The New Covenant with its forgiveness of sins does away with the need for the old covenant. The new has supplanted the old. For more information about this show, which includes additional notes and details, please visit the show page here or visit our home page at SeekingourG...
Hebrews 10:5-10 – Jesus completely fulfilled the will of God
June 24, 2021 11:00 - 13 minutes - 12.8 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: The sacrificial system was never the means by which God would deal permanently with sin Believers have been set apart (“sanctified”) by the offering of Christ’s body once for all. (v. 10) Jesus came to do the Father’s will, which is seen in the New Covenant. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus Christ has taken away the first covenant and established the second. The readers of Hebrews would get the message: why go back to a covenant that has been taken away? Why go bac...
Hebrews 10:1-4 – A Reminder of Sins Every Year
June 17, 2021 11:00 - 14 minutes - 12.9 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Sin is our greatest problem. By nature, we are a sinner; and by choice, we prove that our nature is sinful. Ultimately animals could not deal with the sin problem. The sacrifice of animals could not deal finally, completely, and ultimately with the sin problem. There was a desperate need for a better sacrifice because the blood of bulls and of goats could not take away sins. The sacrifice could cover sin and postpone judgment, but it could never affect a once-and-for-all re...
Hebrews Chapter 9 Overview
June 14, 2021 11:00 - 10 minutes - 9.68 MBPRINCIPLES The regular routine of sacrificing to God reminded the worshipers that they were in need of forgiveness The influence of Christ’s death produces in His followers a desire to serve God. Christ’s death removes the stain of sin. It is not just the external, but all of us is cleansed by His blood Christ’s death is so effective it requires no repetition. His death was final, full, complete, and once and for all. His death and blood satisfied all of the OT sacrifices. The high prie...
Hebrews 9:23-28 – The superiority and permanence of Christ's sacrifice
June 10, 2021 11:00 - 17 minutes - 16.5 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Christ now appears for us in God’s presence. He has constant access to God. Christ represents us, prays for us, and accomplishes what we could never do. You have the great High Priest ministering on your behalf We are not depending on a high priest on earth who annually visits the holy of holies in a temporary sanctuary. We depend on the heavenly High Priest who has entered once and for all into the eternal sanctuary. There He represents us before God, and He always will. T...
Interpretation Issue in Hebrews 9:16-17: Is it Will or Covenant
June 07, 2021 11:00 - 6 minutes - 5.89 MBRegarding this particular issue in Hebrews 9, I was asked to write on it a little while back and provide my own viewpoint as to what is being said. While I typically do not like to provide my certain viewpoint on interpretation issues and leave it to you the audience to weigh the options, today I will provide what I think fits my interpretation model. If you were to go look at 5 different commentaries you would see two maybe even three different views. So there is by no means a consensus her...
Hebrews 9:15-22 – Eternal Redemption through the Blood of Christ
June 03, 2021 11:00 - 13 minutes - 11.9 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: The New Covenant provides two gifts to a believer: redemption and inheritance. Since Christ has accomplished an eternal redemption, we are able to share in an eternal inheritance. By practicing faith and patience, believers are assured that they will inherit the marvelous promises God has made. Hebrews 9:15 makes it clear that there was no final and complete redemption under the Old Covenant. Those transgressions were covered by the blood of the many sacrifices, but not cl...
Hebrews 9:11-14 – Christ cleanses our sins
May 31, 2021 11:00 - 11 minutes - 10.9 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Jesus offered Himself without blemish for the purpose of cleansing our sins and conscience from the dead works and to serve the living God. The sacrifice of the animals cleansed the flesh, but the sacrifice of Christ and His blood cleanses both the external and internal. If the ashes of the old covenant could provide ritual cleansing, how much more will the blood of Christ cleanse the believer. Christ, who was without blemish, offered Himself and paid the ransom price for h...
Hebrews 9:6-10 - The Ineffective Ceremonies
May 26, 2021 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.7 MBKey takeaways: The daily repetition of these ministries showed that they never resulted in access to God. The fact that the high priest could enter the Most Holy Place only once a year indicates the failure of the Mosaic covenant to bring believers into the presence of God Only the high priest could enter the Most Holy Place. Once a year, on the Day of Atonement, the high priest offered a blood sacrifice for himself and for the sins of ignorance committed by everyone in Israel. In the prov...
Hebrews 9:1-5 - The Furniture of the Tabernacle
May 24, 2021 11:00 - 17 minutes - 15.6 MBKey Takeaways: Hebrews 9 presents a detailed contrast between the Old Covenant sanctuary (the tabernacle) and the New Covenant heavenly sanctuary where Jesus Christ now ministers. This contrast makes it clear that the New Covenant sanctuary is superior. This section of Hebrews reminds readers that the regulations and practices in the tabernacle were ordained of God. If there was any inferiority in the tabernacle service, it was not because God had not established the ritual. While the Old ...
Hebrews 8 Chapter Summary
May 19, 2021 11:00 - 13 minutes - 12.3 MBMain Themes in Hebrews 8: Jesus is the Superior High Priest at the right hand of God: Author makes it clear by saying the “main point” of previous discussion: “we have such a high priest, who has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a minister in the sanctuary and in the true tabernacle, which the Lord set up, not man.” (vv. 1-2, NASB) Jesus the Mediator of a better covenant: “Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the ...
Hebrews 8:7-13 – A New Covenant
May 18, 2021 11:00 - 17 minutes - 15.7 MBKey Takeaways: We can have a fresh start. Bondage to old, seemingly unbreakable patterns can be broken and replaced. We can live in the grace and freedom of Christ. The problems is not the original covenant or God Himself. The problem is the people. The people are at fault. The New Covenant is wholly of God’s grace; no sinner can become a part of this New Covenant without faith in Jesus Christ. Grace and faith go together just as the Law and works go together (Rom. 11:6). The Law says, “...
Hebrews 8:4-6 – A More Excellent Ministry
May 13, 2021 14:26 - 12 minutes - 11.7 MBKey Takeaways: The writer provided two pieces of evidence of the superiority of the New Covenant: it is ministered by a superior Priest, Jesus Christ; and it is ministered in a superior place, heaven itself The earthly priesthood and sanctuary seemed quite real and stable, and yet they were but copies of the true! The Old Testament system was but shadows (Col. 2:17). The Law was but a “shadow of good things to come” (Heb. 10:1); the true and full light came in Jesus Christ. So why go back ...
Hebrews 8:1-3 – It all led up to this
May 10, 2021 11:00 - 8 minutes - 8.04 MBKey Takeaways: Jesus is at the right hand of God and has taken the place of glory, power, and excellence as a result of His faithful work The words "the main point" have the idea of the climactic or crowning point. This crowning point is the place where the Lord Christ ministers Jesus had accomplished the work whose completion the priests could only anticipate. The present ministry of Christ is to pray for His people before God. His sacrifice was once and for all and ultimate. There is n...
Hebrews Chapter 7 Review
May 05, 2021 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.3 MBPRINCIPLES In Jesus, God has given us a great and powerful representative in His presence. In Jesus God provided struggling sinners better access to Him than Old Testament believers ever had. The ministry of Old Testament priests did not produce godly people. Jesus’ ministry for us is effective because it is eternal. Jesus’ ministry for us is effective because Jesus has spotless character. Jesus’ sacrifice was effective as it was once for all and there is no need for it to be repeated. ...
Hebrews 7:11-19 – Christ Replaces the Old Priesthood part 2
May 03, 2021 11:00 - 15 minutes - 14 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: The priesthood of Aaron was temporary, while the priesthood according to Melchizedek was forever and superseded Aaron's. Hebrews designated Jesus as a priest even though no one who served as a priest had ever come from Jesus’ tribe, the tribe of Judah. Jesus’ priesthood is superior (indestructible and eternal) because of God’s oath. Christ’s priesthood made it possible for sinners to draw near to God Christ became a priest not because of genealogy or ancestry, but on the ...
Hebrews 7:11-19 – Christ Replaces the Old Priesthood part 1
April 28, 2021 11:00 - 14 minutes - 13 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: The priesthood of Aaron was temporary, while the priesthood according to Melchizedek was forever and superseded Aaron's. Hebrews designated Jesus as a priest even though no one who served as a priest had ever come from Jesus’ tribe, the tribe of Judah. Jesus’ priesthood is superior (indestructible and eternal) because of God’s oath.

Hebrews 7:4-10 – The Proof of Melchizedek's Greatness
April 26, 2021 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.2 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Melchizedek received tithes from Abraham (vv. 4-6). Notice that Abraham not only tithed but he gave the best he had. Melchizedek blessed Abraham (vv. 6-7). The greater blesses the lesser Melchizedek lives on and had an eternal priesthood (in the sense no record of his death has been found). Levi paid tithes to Melchizedek through Abraham. For more information about this show, which includes additional notes and details, please visit the show page here or visit our home ...
Hebrews 7:1-3 – Who is Melchizedek
April 21, 2021 11:00 - 17 minutes - 15.6 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Jesus is a priest that is far superior to Aaron. Melchizedek, whose name means king of righteousness, remains a priest forever. In the timelessness of his priesthood, Melchizedek resembled the Son of God. In the case of Christ, His nature guaranteed His perpetuity. The fulfillment in Jesus was more glorious than the type in Melchizedek. Three similarities are described to exist between the Lord Jesus and Melchizedek. Their names are similar (cf. Isa. 9:6; Jer. 23:6; Eph. 2...
Hebrews Chapter 6 Summary
April 19, 2021 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.5 MBCheck out my children's book here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FP9NZNK PRINCIPLES Professing believers who produce no evidence of conversion face God’s judgment. Let me clarify this a bit more: The warning for all time is that God rejects the show of piety without the fruit of righteousness. Those who claim to be devout must submit to the authority of Christ and bring forth fruit of repentance--a changed life (Matt 21:18-46) God provides strength to lead us beyond elementary teaching to...
Hebrews 6:16-20 – The Oath of God and Our Hope
April 14, 2021 11:00 - 9 minutes - 8.26 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: Jesus is our forerunner so that one day we may follow It is impossible for God to lie. We have strong encouragement to hold firmly to the hope set before us. Our hope in Christ is like an anchor for the soul God provides hope to help us endure in our faith commitment to Jesus. None is greater than God, so He swore by Himself For more information about this show, includes additional notes and details, please visit the show page here or visit our home page at SeekingourGod....
Hebrews 6:11-15 – Diligence and Hope
April 12, 2021 11:00 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MBKEY TAKEAWAYS: May we be examples of growth and maturity in our Christianity by showing visible examples of our faith, serving others, being bold, and enduring and persevering through all hardships Reflect on your life and activities regularly. See if there are areas where you are drifting or becoming lazy. Perform a self-check and see what your attitude toward God is. Are you spending time with Him? Are you asking for His help? Are you depending on Him? Are you drifting from Him? Then, le...
