Let the Bible Speak - Kevin Presley

These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so. Acts 17:11

The Prepositions Of Christ

The smallest words can be the most important ones. All scripture is inspired of God and represents the words the Spirit guided the apostles to write to communicate the mind of God to us. This fact makes each word significant. This is especially true in regard to the propositions chosen by the Spirit of God to describe the relationships of men and women to Christ Jesus. Even two letters can make the difference of how our life here is lived and where we will spend eternity. Which ones describe your present relationship to Him? In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we learn about some of the Prepositions of Christ.

Excuses, Excuses

Real reasons or empty excuses? One of the oldest habits of mankind is to justify decisions and actions that would otherwise meet with disapproval. Jesus knew that His kingdom offer would be met with rejection and illustrated the fact with a story about people who were invited to a great supper. Their cold rejection of the gracious invitation was softened by the excuses they all began to make. The master’s response was a warning to all who make excuses for not doing the will of God even today.

Reconciled To God

Many have suggested that every Christian is an ambassador of Jesus Christ and represents the Lord before the unbelieving world. The Apostle Paul had something else in mind when he said to the Corinthian church that “ambassadors for Christ” were entrusted with the “ministry of reconciliation.” In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we learn the significance of both phrases and how they actually relate to we who were lost in our sins.

Did Peter And Paul Preach Different Gospels?

The great Apostle Paul was a pillar in the church throughout the Greek world. This ambassador of King Jesus was dispatched to carry the message of the Heavenly Monarch to the Gentile nations. Was the gospel he was entrusted with different from that of Peter and the other apostles who were there when the gospel was first preached to the Jews on the Day of Pentecost? Some allege that Peter was given the gospel of repentance and submission to the Lordship of Christ, whereas Paul was given the gospel of grace and that modern Christians should look to Paul and not Peter for instruction. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak we ask did Peter and Paul preach different gospels?

Then God Remembered

When Noah and his small family found themselves floating over the deep in the ark, they were alone in the world. God had wiped away the former civilization and its impenitent wickedness. The bible says, “Then God remembered Noah…” This serves as a wonderful reminder to the people of God that God does not forget His own. This phrase is similarly used in other places in scripture and usually brings comfort and assurance to the confused, anxious, and suffering. It also stands as a warning to others. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we talk about the infinite memory of God.

Playing With Fire

Does it matter how we worship God? In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we learn about two priests in the Old Testament who learned the answer the hard way. When the priests offered their sacrifices, a consuming fire confirmed that God received the offering. In the case of this careless and presumptuous pair, the fire fell and consumed them instead. Find out why it is dangerous to Play With Fire.

The Mission Of The Church

Crafting and remaining devoted to a mission statement is one key to the success of an organization. The same is true for the kingdom of Christ. The objectives of the church were not created by men but by the Head of the church Himself, the Lord Jesus. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we learn about the church’s mission and why we must not become distracted and drift from it.

For Glory And Beauty

The beautiful garments worn by the High Priest under the Old Covenant are meticulously described in Exodus 28. This was not a mere costume but rather a symbolic display of the significance of the High Priest’s office and his duties. Moses outlined the reasons behind the intricate apparel worn by this great man of God. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, guest speaker Nate Bibens relates the High Priestly garments to the glory and beauty of the life of every obedient believer in Christ.

Royal Refusals

Saying “no” can be difficult especially if we must refuse one in authority. It is a vital word, however, in the Christian’s vocabulary. History is replete with the stories of courageous men and women who stood before dictators, despots, and tyrants and refused to compromise their convictions. None were ever so valiant as those we read of in holy writ, who risked their lives by refusing the orders of ungodly rulers and enemies of God. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, we find inspiration in four men who had the courage to say “no” and altered the course of history.

Shocked At The Sentence

A day has been appointed by God to bring the world to judgment. Every person will appear before Jesus, the Christ, and the righteous Judge to answer for the life they lived. Solomon, Jesus, Paul, and other inspired men have promised this would be the case. Despite the many warnings given in the Word of God, however, the Day of Judgment will be a day of shocking revelations for many. In this broadcast of Let the Bible Speak, learn why multitudes will be Shocked At The Sentence.
