February 24, 2023 00:00 - 55 minutes - 68.9 MB

In this episode we will look at God's perfect church.  It all starts with His Perfect Word.  It isn't the partial truth that is able to do a perfect work inside of someone, but it must be the Perfect Truth or Word of God that is being proclaimed and believed upon.  God's Perfect work in a person allows addition to Body of Christ.  This happens when we receive the Holy Spirit and it changes our heart freeing us from the sinful practices and thoughts we formerly walked in.  God then g...

February 10, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 71.9 MB

In this episode I will respond to a listener question "Why are women so desperate for love and Why aren't men fulfilling that need?"  There are several items to address with this question.  First, a man or a woman who have spiritual unity with God are going to be fulfilled independent of their spouse.  Second, the world today has it backwards with how God designed the relationship between a man and a women with respect to authority and headship.  The world will accept the authority ...

February 08, 2023 00:00 - 33 minutes - 35.4 MB

In this episode we continue the discussion looking at how God says we are to walk (Part 3 of 3).  It is different from the world.  We must be sure our walk is representative of what God says it should be.  If not, then there is a problem.  Maybe you haven't received power.  It is not about trying, it is about doing with an easy yoke.  There are also contrasts about how we are not to be walking.  It doesn't matter what you desire or how you feel, it comes down to if you are able to d...

January 29, 2023 00:00 - 40 minutes - 65.7 MB

In this episode we will continue with Part 3 by looking at the end of the book of Mathew, specifically how Jesus interacted with the crowds and the leaders of Israel.  Many people are unaware of the extent to which Jesus constantly exposed the false "church" or believers in God.  Jesus exposed their lies, their false belief, and he told them exactly who they were.  Today this would be considered offensive in the church.  But God does not let His servants speak lies and false words o...

Episode 45: God speaks to more than just Saints

January 27, 2023 00:00 - 47 minutes - 50.9 MB

In this episode we will look at examples where God speaks to not only Saints but also those who are still seeking to become Saints or Christians.  Many times, people think because a book in the bible starts off speaking to the Saints or Christians, that much of all that is written in that book is always speaking to the "Christians".  But this isn't the case in many instances.  Those who are truly Christians often times don't have that much written to them other than a brief exhortat...

January 23, 2023 00:00 - 35 minutes - 38.9 MB

In this episode we will look at the question "are you free?"  Do you really understand what this statement means as God defines it?  We will look at how God defines this question.  At the time Jesus spoke about this, he was speaking to those who believed in him, but they didn't understand.  It comes down to what are you actually free from?  It goes beyond the penalty of sin, but the actual practice of evidence of sin in a persons life being removed.  If you still commit sin, then Je...

Episode 42: What do you see when you look in the Mirror?

January 21, 2023 00:00 - 24 minutes - 39.2 MB

In this episode we will look at whether or not we are someone who looks in the mirror and remembers what they look like or if they immediately forget.  God uses this analogy in the book of James when describing the spiritual condition of an individual.  Sadly, most people think they are Christians, but actually God would see them as the person who deceives there own heart and has a worthless religion.  Find out what God has to say about the topic. Passages covered:  James ch 1-4;  ...

Episode 41: The Mystery of Circumcision, The Argument Explained

January 16, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 76.5 MB

In this episode we will look at the hotly debated topic in the bible between the Jews and the Apostles regarding circumcision.  Circumcision was required by God to Abraham as part of the covenant God made with him to bless all the nations.  So why do the Jews demand it and the Gentiles say it isn't required?  Both are true when put in proper  context.  Most people simply don't understand exactly what God says in His word regarding the topic.  Before we get into this discussion we st...

Episode 40: How do you Love your Enemies?

January 13, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 61.9 MB

In this episode we will look at the teaching where Jesus commands us to love and pray for our enemies.  What did Jesus really mean when he said this?  It seems like it would be hard to love your enemies.  What about the places in the bible where God commands not to pray for a people because He has determined to destroy them (Jeremiah 7:1-28, 11:1-16, 14:7-15:7).  As we look at God's word, we will see that to love your enemies and much of the other commands Jesus gives are impossible...

Episode 39: Taking Every Thought Captive, BUT WHAT THOUGHTS?

January 11, 2023 00:00 - 25 minutes - 26.3 MB

In this episode we will look at a phase commonly used, however it is used many times completely out of context.  Most people use this phrase to address how they deal with the sinful thoughts that dwell within them.  When a sinful thought arises in their mind, instead of realizing it is due to the bad heart where sinful thoughts still exist thus indicating they DO NOT have a new heart, they attribute it the normal state of a "Christian."  Many falsely and ignorantly use a bible passa...

In this episode we review the first half of Psalm 119.  What we see is the result of the power of God in a person's life.  One main theme is the discussion of the results of what the word of God or Law of God does in a person.  How you might ask?  Well it starts with a person doing the following: Seeking God with all their heart Delight, meditate, keep, and walk in the commandments of God Do not wander or turn from God's law The result: Their way is blameless Do no unrighteous...
