The Borderland

One of the scribes who questioned Jesus in the final week of His earthly ministry stands apart from the others. While most of those pious religious leaders querying the Christ that day were hard of heart and a great distance from God, this man impressed the Lord. Jesus said, “Thou art not far from the kingdom of God.” What brought him so near? Many are in the same condition today. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we learn about those who dwell in “the borderland” of the kingdom.

In His Image

We are posting a classic presentation this week because Brother Hickey had some challenges with posting the most recent presentation to YouTube. We will resume current presentations next week. Brother Brett Hickey explores Genesis 1:26, “Let us make man in our image,” as a veiled introduction to God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, emphasizing God’s singular nature as one deity in three persons. It highlights humanity’s unique position among creatures, possessing dominion, creativity, communication, discernment of right from wrong, and the capacity for fellowship with God. The message underscores God’s immense love and grace.

The High Cost Of A Free Gift

Can something that is free cost us something at the same time? Eternal life is the gift of God given by His grace. We have not and will never do anything to merit His favor and the salvation He provides. There is a paradox for us to consider though: this gift does not come without cost. In the broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we learn about the high cost of providing and receiving the gift of God.

Was Your Conversion Genuine?

Jesus once said that in order to enter His kingdom, we must be converted. What does it mean to be converted? Have you been truly converted and how can you know for sure? The New Testament teaches that we can know and that there is a divine witness to the fact. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we pose the question for personal introspection: Was Your Conversion Genuine?

God’s Bookkeeping

When the Apostle John was transported by the Spirit to the judgment before the Great White Throne, he beheld books being opened, including but not limited to The Book of Life. In searching the scriptures, we find several mentions of books being written or recorded, not only on earth, but in heaven. These books contain information about you. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we are reminded of how meticulous God’s Bookkeeping is.

Questions from My Catholic Friend

In this special episode of Let the Bible Speak, we respond to heartfelt and sincere questions from a Catholic friend seeking to better understand biblical truth. What does the Bible really say about church authority, tradition, the role of Mary, and how we can be certain we are pleasing God? Join us as we examine these topics—not with personal opinion, but by going directly to Scripture. If you’re searching for clarity on these often-misunderstood issues, this study is for you.

How Should Christians Honor Mary?

In this episode of Let the Bible Speak, we examine an important and sometimes divisive question: How should Christians honor Mary, the mother of Jesus? While all believers should recognize the unique role God gave Mary in His redemptive plan, Scripture warns against giving her the glory that belongs to God alone. We compare the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church—especially from The Glories of Mary—with the inspired Word of God. Using passages like 2 Timothy 3:16-17, Acts 17:11, and 1 Timothy 2:5, we affirm that the Bible is sufficient to guide us in all matters of faith, and that Jesus Christ is our sole mediator. Join us as we explore what true, biblical honor for Mary looks like and why elevating her beyond what God’s Word allows is a dangerous error.
