Bible Study Company: Podcast For Pewsitters

#Jesus #JesusChrist #GoDislove #Yeshua #whatissuccess #biblicalsuccess But is this the Frame that God approves? Adam and Eve had one law or rule which God gave them that was a negative rule. Although God created them to do His will on earth, they chose to sin. What is sin? Choosing our will over God's will. We think we know best. We believe we are a "good person." And the list goes on. Choosing our "frame" over His frame?  Is there a Godly Frame? Or rather a biblical framework to see life through? Yes.  Hint. We are not in the frame! God and His word sit firmly in the BiblicalFRAME.  Our list starts here. Theme-based study.1. Creator. His world, His rules Gen Chapt 1-32. "Minister to Me..." Exodus 28:13. Judah/Jews "One who praises God." Gen 29:354. "Serve Me." The highest purpose of man Exodus 4:22-245. Walk in a manner worthy of the calling Eph 4:16. Our purpose 2Cor 5:1-117. "Take up your cross daily..." Matthew 16:24-268. So we are not deceived, God gave us the Bible and the HS. 1john2:26When we decided t

#Bible #Biblestudy #Jesus #JesusChrist #biblestudycompany #Ephesians #cancer Erv's cancer may be back. We are both scared but decide to worship during the news. Our Creator made us with a choice. To choose our will or His will. His will is we totally trust Him with our lives. We do so with worship in the midst of bad news. Worship with us. Grab your psalm and pray with us through this news.  

#Bible #Biblestudy #Jesus #JesusChrist #biblestudycompany #Ephesians #Ephesiansbiblestudy1. Redemption and what it means. The forgiveness of our trespasses (sins) against God's laws. The good news (Gospel) is that we cannot earn or work our way to a relationship with God. We need a rescue (redemption). Christ did it all.  2. It is through Christ's blood. Christ dying for our sin is how we know God came to earth. He was able to fix Adam's sin, forgive our sin 6,000 years later, and forgive the whole world's sin. Each person has an opportunity to access this forgiveness. All we need is to ask Christ to save us with a sincere heart, as Erv and Ric did.  3. Did you know we have access to knowing God's will? We do! Christ, it says of Christ,"7 In Him, we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace 8, which He lavished on us. In all wisdom and insight 9, He made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His kind intention which He purposed in Hi

We worship using Psalms  1. We talk about what it means to be predestined. And we discuss that we are adopted into the family of God.2. We discuss God's kind intention of His will, which is what we are after as we study the Bible, and what that means for our lives.3. We talk about the praise and glory of His grace and how that matters. Grace is always moving us away from ungodliness which is toward God's will in our life.  4. We talk about "in Christ", "in the beloved" and what that means for us. We are no longer a part of the world. Yet we live in it. But He lives in us!  5. We get into specifics about redemption, what it means for the Gospel, and our daily lives. Do we understand salvation correctly?6. He lavished His love, grace, and forgiveness on us and we are still in amazement! We just need to believe in Him. Put our full weight of trust in Him and have the assurance of the things hoped for.   Join us to see how we can live praiseworthy to God. BTW you can use this bible study with a group if you like.

#Bible #Biblestudy #Disciple #Apostle #willofGod #ephesians   Erv is approaching his 1st anniversary after becoming born again. His life has dramatically changed.  The second week we had a Bible Study he said something similar to this: "Ric and Pete, I am stuck at home with my pancreatic cancer. I do not know if I will live long. But how can God use me? How can I share the Gospel with people". Pete and I shared that we should just ask God for the opportunity. Erv, within two or three weeks, was sharing the Gospel of Christ in a youth prison where he still serves! He was asked to run a nursing  Bible study AND has found a home church. Your prayers have helped to put him in remission! God's glory! His testimony has been seen thousands of times on youtube and Facebook! He is sharing what God has done for him! You can too!  Ric and Erv started a bible study that we have been doing all year. We decided to record them so people could enjoy the back and forth and use good bible study principles. Ric gets to see the

#Hebrewroots #hebrewrootsmovement #messianicjudaism #dochristiansneedtokeepthelaw #bible #biblestudy #Jesus #yeshua #torah #torahkeeping #messiah #hrm So if we want to keep the Torah (Law of Moses), how will we do it? We learned that not even Orthodox Judaism is Torah observant.  We heard from people who said, "Ric, how will we know what sin is if we don't keep Torah"? Our answer is the entire New Testament, written by Christ's direct representatives; the Apostles have many "laws" and explains the Torah. The old testament was pointing to Christ. Christ came. Now what? Keep Torah? No.  The bottom line is that in Ephesians 2, Paul lays out for both Jew and Gentiles that we are now "in Christ." Think of an envelope covered in Divine blood. We are now, "in the envelope," in Christ.  When Christ took the wine and broke the bread, representing His Body (may we say our efforts?) and the wine (blood) poured out for our sin (missing God's will for our lives), Christ was able to release us (may we say fulfill?) from ou

#hebrewroots #messianicjudaism #dochristiansneedtokeepthelaw #bible #biblestudy #Jesus #yeshua #torah #torahkeeping #messiah #hrm Some gems Baruch lays out.  1. Judaism is not Torah Observant today. Those who claim to be Torah keeping need to be aware that over 250 "laws" or instructions are related to the Temple being in place. Thus, no one is a true Torah Keeper.  2. There are many versions of Judaism in the US. 3. The "Law" is a unit. If we cannot keep the "law" with no temple in place so then the whole law is "broken." We can learn much about spiritual truth, and that should be our focus when studying the Torah.  4. We all must base our doctrine on the Word of God and our study with the Holy Spirit. We should not follow men.  5. We are saved by grace alone, through faith alone as Abraham was.  6. In Ephesians 2, the penalty and the debt we owed to God was paid by our Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ.  7. How does Christ fulfill the law? Watch the video or listen.  8. We must be careful not to disparage a gr

#hebrewroots #yeshua #Messianicjudaism #torah #bible #torahkeeping #keepingtorah #keepthelaw #lawkeeping #performancebased #lawofmosesHighlights of the interview:  1. Dr. Goepfrich gem of a statement: "Christ was not the atonement for our sin...HE PAID FOR IT ALL. Christ gave us the great exchange. He took our sin to the cross, paid the price for our sin that we could not, and then gave us His righteousness. Thus it is as if we never sinned! Do we keep on sinning? No, because the power of the Holy Spirit is to train us away from ungodliness (Titus 2:11-12)  2. Goepfrich gem #2: Jewish people, before Messiah came, had to go to the temple. WE ARE THE TEMPLE!  3. Goeprich gem #3: Christ didn't abolish the law; HE COMPLETED IT! We have a new beginning with the Holy Spirit inside of us.  4. Goepfrich gem #4 We are not under the Mosaic law. We are under the law of Christ!  5. Goepfrich gem #5 Should Christians keep the Shabbat? It is wise to have a day of rest. So the "spirit" of Shabbat is to be dependent on God e

#hebrewroots #yeshua #Messianicjudaism #keepthelaw #lawkeepingA. Our introduction to the series and updates about Biblestudycompany.com B. Dr. Daniel Goepfrich from Theology for Everyone will discuss the covenants and how the church should look at the New Testament covenants. His viewpoint is helpful to know why churches say, "The law was nailed to the cross." He debunks and clarifies for us. C. Dr. Baruch Korman of Loveisrael.org gives excellent balance and answers tough questionsD. The final podcast will be Mary, and I am recapping our way forward and gives us tools from a proper biblical study process. So why do this series? Some in this Mosaic law-keeping movement are referred to as the: Hebrew Roots Movement (HRM). However, law-keeping is also in some legalistic churches as well, usually called performance-based to get God to "move" on their behalf. The Torah was part of a covenant with Israel after God miraculously created a nation from Egypt to keep His promise to Abraham. The Sinai covenant is detaile

The secrets of the Voice of God?Two good friends have a live podcast/video of a bible study the way Bible Study Company studies. Grab your Bible, your beverage, Biblestudycompany.com, and your friends to join us for this engaging study.  Is the wilderness going into the desert to be with God? Are we called "out" of the world (Egypt) but still be in it? We discuss these topics and why knowing what "dabbar" means is crucial in our bible study. One of the names of God is YHVH (Jehovah) Dabbar which translates to Jehovah Speaks. And when God speaks...we need to listen. But is there a difference between a casual conversation (amar) that indicates a relationship with God and God's revelation (dabbar)? Yes, there are differences!  Then we need to ask: "Lord, what is the difference between God's revelation and God's casual conversation with us?" Do we receive "new" revelatio

#Jesus #JesusChrist #Bible #biblia #ephesians #dependentongod #Jesuslovesyou #inchristTo be v.s. to do. Did we just define our struggle in our life? We start our second Bible Study of Ephesians with the biblical study principles on what Paul is communicating what we "are" in Ephesians 1. So we are to "be" in GOD's POWER v.s., not to "do" IN OUR POWER and strength. But this is where we live, in our heads, emotions, and our will. How can we change to "be" in His will? Easy to say, hard to accomplish. But not complicated in His power. Let's see. Our podcast and video are the practical applications of our DEPENDENCE ON GOD, not on our strength. Did you know Adam and Eve were to have God's help daily to carry out God's will while they were in the Garden? Yes, our lives were never meant to be lived without God's help. Paul explains we are IN Christ now. Yet, our struggle continues. Adam and Eve decided to do their own will, and this rebellion caused them separation from their CREATOR. Christ came as a sinless man,

#Jesus #Bible #Biblestudy #Ephesians #Israel #rockets Ephesians Bible Study with Bible Study CompanyComputers come with, what we in IT call, "bloatware". This pre-loaded software, although meant to be helpful, is biased toward the computer maker. However, this pre-load can seriously slow down the performance of a computer.  Ric goes through each computer we buy and unchecks the software to prevent it from starting up and causing the computer to slow down. It uses computer resources we need such as memory to perform daily tasks. It has to go. We are similar to a computer. We can come with preloaded software (ideas and beliefs) that include; bias towards how we grew up.  Mary was Catholic and has a bias caused by being in the Catholic church. We discuss the particular quirks of growing up in different mindsets. We can say we are almost pre-programmed toward a certain group, denomination, or religion. For example, in charismatic circles, there are all sorts of denominational beliefs and doctrines (pre-loaded sof

#Jesus #JesusChrist #Bible #biblestudy #Godlovesyou #Godislove  #exodus #podcast #israel #hamas #rocketsThese principles are what we learned from studying Exodus. Exodus is a picture of our Christian walk, according to Dr. Baruch Korman of loveisrael.org.    If so, what truths did we learn?  1. We learned about His Character.  2. We learned His purposes for us and his wonderful intentions.  3. We learned we could depend and lean on Him.  4. That we should not be grumblers in our tents (homes)  5. That tents represent an eternal perspective vs. "being invested" in the world  6. God will meet our needs.  7. Suffering is part of the package because we are in a dying world.8. Fear is a waste when the God Who parted the Red Sea has our back.  These truths are what Mary and I rewatched and were amazed at what God revealed to us as we looked back. And we all desperately need God's revelation!    We are taking God's word seriously, and it shows by what He shared with us. We became more and more hungry for these truth

What Biblestudycompany is up to and how you can help. We are experiencing growth in our youtube channel and podcasting.

When the Amalekites attacked the Israelites, we learned a valuable lesson: Satan uses people. And he can use us if we are not careful. Our reactions to people matter. Anytime anger is involved or if people treat you poorly, make sure you worship the Lord rather than reacting.  Ric and Mary discuss how they could obtain a new foundation in Christ by setting aside what they had previously learned and allowed the Lord to lay a new foundation as they studied the Word with a fresh perspective.  If we ask Him in our study to show us His will, He delights in our new attitude, and based on Proverbs 1; we can be sure of this promise that; The God of the Universe will give us revelation. If we are seeking knowledge, then we must ask ourselves: Is it for Him or us? Our mission is to study the Bible to find out how to please the Lord and perpetually ask Him how we can respond to His Word correctly.  Join us for this authentic and candid podcast of our learning to study the Bible.Dropbox - What is your exodus P1 - Simplif

#Jesus #Bible #Biblestudy #inspirational #inspiration  #motivation #inspirationalquotes We participated in churches for many years. We can honestly say we did not learn how to properly engage and study the Bible.  Is this strange? We think so. But more than not learning how to understand the Word of God caused major problems for us in our lives and marriages, and we looked through nonbiblical filters at the Bible. How is this possible? Changes in our life created the need for help. We almost lost our marriage. Why wasn't Christianity working for us? What was wrong? Through Dr. Baruch and Rivka  Korman, we learned how to study the Bible properly. Below is a PowerPoint in PDF that you can read the whole story. But we are discussing one of the most neglected aspects of churches which is to show people how to feed themselves with the Bible, and encountering God in a new relationship. He is our Creator. We are made to serve Him. So, why didn't we learn to study His word? Good question. Join us for a review of the

#Jesus #Jesussaves #Godislove #Godishope #cancersucks The urgent knocking on our glass screen door came with a surprise. My neighbor, who walked downcast on the sidewalk occasionally with a colts hat or jersey, was at my door insisting we "talk".  The heat and humidity were oppressive as Florida summers tend to cook. Erv's countenance matched the stickiness and blanket of heat. I  asked him if he would like something to drink. Erv had his trademark Mountain Dew and thus said, "no need." I politely asked how I could help. He said something like this, "All these times you have prayed for me while I walked by, I need to talk to you. I will die from this cancer because there is no cure,  and I don't know where I am going when I die?"We spoke at length. He had gone to church in the past and even been baptized. But here, Erv was someone facing a real giant and unsure of his eternal destiny. Why?  This podcast/video finishes the story. You will be challenged. You may be changed. You may have hope you can share. Pray

We are offering new glasses for you to put on as a bible study tool for 2021 and beyond. But we must ask ourselves if we should wear glasses when approaching the Bible? The answer is no and yes.  If we study the bible to "get something out of it for ourselves" we are in danger of treating God's Holy Word as a "devotional" and being a consumer. Using it as a devotion is "ok" but we could be missing more. Such as, these words were used to create the universe. Maybe there is more to see than just devotional reading? But we can turn to Him, knowing this Bible is God's revealed Will for us to embrace, it will change us to know we are studying what Our King wants us to obey. Does this make us disciples versus pewsitters? Yes, because Christ said in John 14:14, "If you love Me, you will obey My commandments.  Let that sink in. First, if we love Him we will obey. Second, did He just say He is the author of the commandments given on Mt. Sinai aka God Almighty, the great I AM? We would say, yes. So, Christ gives us a m
