  • Truth, Feasts & A Guardian (Exodus 23)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Aug 29, 2024
     | 309 views

    Should Israel tell the truth? Should they observe three annual festival seasons? Would God guard them? Let's look at Exodus 23.

    Should Israel always speak the truth? Should they keep three annual feast seasons? Would God send a guardian angel? Let’s look at Exodus 23. Should Israel be involved in spreading false reports, vigilante mobs, or show special favors in judgment merely because they feel sorry for a poor man? Thou ...read more

     | 607 views

    How do incense and anointing oil picture the Christian life? Let's look at Exodus 30.

    Are our prayers trivial to God? Does God treat our prayers as pleasant incense? If God considered the anointing of the priests to be sacred, how do we treat the spiritual leaders in our churches? Let’s consider Exodus 30. How was the altar of incense to be constructed for the tabernacle? You are ...read more

    Why did Gabriel visit two people before either John or Jesus were born? Let's look at Luke 1.

    By what miracles were John the Baptist and Jesus born? Do even righteous people like Zechariah doubt and others like Mary simply believe? Let’s begin looking at Luke 1. What was the stated purpose of Luke, and who was it initially written to? Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a ...read more

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 13, 2024
     | 590 views

    Does the rainbow play into our lives today? Let's discuss this in Genesis 9.

    We each bear the consequences of our own sins, yet pass on bad habits and genetic corruption. Our children also sin and each generation suffers more as the sins of society accumulate. Did God know all this in advance? Has He prepared a plan to save humanity? Let’s discuss this in Genesis 9. How ...read more

     | 328 views

    What secrets lay behind Jesus' use of parables? Let's discuss this in Mark 4.

    What are the four places where the seed of the word is broadcast? Why did Jesus speak in parables to outsiders? Is light to be hidden under a basket? How is God’s kingdom like harvesting? How is God’s kingdom like a mustard plant? How would we have reacted as Jesus calmed a lake storm? Let’s ...read more

  • God Blesses Isaac (Genesis 26)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 4, 2024
     | 810 views

    We all face potential family problems. The patriarchs were no exception. Let's look at Isaac's family in Genesis 26.

    The patriarchs had all the normal family problems that most of us experience. It seems there is always trouble in the human sphere, someone we don’t get along with, someone who brings trouble of some kind. Yet, in the midst of troubles there is faith. Is there also faith in us? Let’s look at ...read more

  • Wrestling With God (Genesis 32)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 12, 2024
     | 852 views

    Do we wrestle with God in prayer or do we give up? Let's look at Genesis 32.

    Jacob’s name meant a heel catcher, someone who gets ahead by slowing someone else down. God had prophesied to Rebekah that the older would serve the younger, but Jacob took the inheritance and the blessing by tricking his brother. Was his suffering under a wage-cheating father-in-law a good lesson ...read more

  • Edom (Genesis 36)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 17, 2024
     | 550 views

    Do we want to be like Edom or Israel? Let's examine Genesis 36.

    Esau married Canaanite wives (Genesis 26:34-35). His descendants refused the Exodus Israelites safe passage (Numbers 20:21; 21:4). Yet, God commanded Israel to treat them kindly (Deuteronomy 23:7). Israel ruled them for a time (1 Samuel 14:47; 2 Samuel 8:14). Prophets prophesied against them ...read more

    What was it like for Joseph being sold by his brothers into Egyptian slavery? How do we handle terrible loss? Do we have the faith to wait on God, who has wonderful plans, for those who love Him? Let’s look at Genesis 37. Does Joseph get along with his older brothers? Have we ever experienced ...read more

  • Difficult Reunion (Genesis 42)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 24, 2024
     | 613 views

    The Bible does not require that we trust those who once abused us, but can we forgive? Let's look at Genesis 42.

    Can past abuse make a family reunion difficult? God does not require that we trust those who once hurt us, but can we forgive? Let’s look at Genesis 42. What were Joseph’s brothers forced to do because of the famine? When Jacob learned that there was grain in Egypt, he said to his sons, “Why are ...read more

  • Hosanna (Mark 11)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Aug 4, 2024
     | 451 views

    Why did Jesus ride into town on a donkey? Why did the same people turn on Him just a few days later? Let's look at Mark 11.

    Why did Jesus ride into town on a donkey’s colt, like an Israelite king? Why did the crowd yell, Save us, please? Why did Jesus curse a fruitless fig tree? Why did He cause a scene in the temple over merchandising? Why did the religious leaders challenge His authority? Let’s find out in Mark ...read more

  • Lacking Faith To Lead (Exodus 4)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Aug 7, 2024
     | 420 views

    Do we have self-doubt instead of faith in God? Let's look at Exodus 4.

    Can humility and self-doubt cause us to doubt God? Was God angry with Moses' lack of faith? Do we have doubts about ourselves? Do we trust that God can use an imperfect person such as us? Let's look at Exodus 4. Did Moses doubt that he would be believed? Do we also doubt, afraid to share ...read more

  • Livestock Plague, Boils & Hail (Exodus 9)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Aug 14, 2024
     | 484 views

    Is God patient with short lived repentance, giving Pharaoh every chance? Let's look at Exodus 9.

    Was Pharaoh’s repentance short lived, like a recovering addict, like a dog that returns to its own vomit, and the sow, after washing herself, that returns to wallow in the mire (2 Peter 2:22)? If God did not give up on Pharaoh, will He easily give up on us? Let’s look at Exodus 9. Livestock ...read more

     | 449 views

    Did God harden a stubborn heart that Pharaoh had already hardened? Let's look at Exodus 10.

    Did God harden Pharaoh’s heart apart from his free will (Exodus 4:21; 7:3; 9:12; 10:1, 20, 27; 11:10; 14:4, 8; 14:7)? Did Pharaoh’s heart just grow hard (Exodus 7:13, 22; 8:19; 9:7, 35)? Did Pharaoh harden his own heart (Exodus 8:15, 32; 9:34)? Did God only harden what Pharaoh had already decided ...read more

  • Fix Our Eyes On Jesus (Hebrews 12)

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on May 28, 2024
     | 1,225 views

    Have we come to the heavenly Jerusalem? What is our focus? Let's find out in Hebrews 12.

    Is there a great cloud of witnesses who were faithful before us? Do their examples encourage us to run with endurance the race that is set before us? Do we meditate on what Jesus did for us? Does the Lord discipline those He loves? Have we come to the city of the living God, heavenly Jerusalem? ...read more
