Esther Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 3, 2022

Mordecai, Esther's uncle, offended a high court official called Haman, who decided to kill not only Mordecai but all the Jews in the Persian empire. Esther turned the tables on Mordecai. She pleaded with the King, and Haman was punished – hanged on the very gallows he had built for Mordecai.

If you are not already familiar with these individuals, they have been briefly introduced to us in the following paragraphs. Who was Esther? 1. Queen Vashti disobeyed the drunken orders ...read more

Satan’s Limitations: Satan Is Not Omnipresent Series

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Sep 12, 2022

Job 1-2 reveals Satan’s limitations. Satan is not God’s equal opposite. Satan isn’t omnipresent (everywhere), omnipotent (all-powerful) or omniscient (all-knowing). This session’s focus - Satan isn’t God’s Equal, Satan isn’t Omnipresent.

**************** Job 1-2 gives us some remarkable information about Satan. Job reminds me of Revelation in that the scenes go back and forth between spiritual and physical. In both books of the Bible, we see scenes in the spiritual realm in Heaven and the resulting physical ramifications on ...read more
