Jews were not well liked in King Ahazuerus’ kingdom because they worshipped their God in a way that prevented them from bowing to the whims of the king or his cohorts.... Continue Reading →
In our last session, we saw how God’s unique, personal name reveals His eternal nature. We even had a Hebrew grammar lesson to help us understand what Hebrew speakers, then and now, can see from the structure of the Name. He was, He is, He will be - woven into the very spelling of His... Continue Reading →
Wars. Rumors. Nation vs nation. Kingdom vs kingdom. Famine. Pestilence. Earthquakes. Christians hated by everyone. Many offended. Betrayals. Hatred. False prophets. Deception. Lawlessness everywhere. Love growing cold. Sound bites from the evening news, or the latest headlines? Yes, and no. We hear of many of these things on a daily basis and have read of... Continue Reading →
Before we begin this session, do you remember the warning at the end of our last session that we would be taking a deep dive this time? If you are reading this, then I am going to assume that you were not intimidated by the warning and have donned the necessary equipment for the deep... Continue Reading →
