    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 12, 2011
     | 3,696 views

    This is a study of chapter 4 in the book of Revelation. This is a controversial subject but takes a conservative approach to understanding the book.

    Note: I used many sources to study this book, one of my favorites is Revelation: God’s Word for the Biblically-Inept by Daymond Duck and some out of different study bibles. Title: Worship of the Creator Text: Rev 4 Why is there a break? and why we believe the rapture happened. 1. The church ...read more

    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 43 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 18, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,335 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Theme: Joseph meets with his brothers including Benjamin Title: The Second Trip to Egypt Text: Genesis 43 Genesis 43:1. And the ...read more

    The Spirit of God bestows ‘oneness’ of all true believers. This peace is like a Spiritual cord that surrounds every believer, and keeps us together.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,505 views

    The story of an honest man, Naboth, killed as a result of an abuse of power and perhaps, because of a king... Ahab ... telling half truths. It also warns of the potential of abuse of power/influence by Christians.

    This is one story of several that trace the confrontation between the prophet Elijah and king Ahab. Ahab is usually a pretty bad guy. These stories have there origins in chapter 17. There, Elijah seems to burst on the scene from out of nowhere, and curses a drought into existence in the presence ...read more
