If you listened to Knowing
God in the Word Episode 1-03: Jesus is Jehovah and
would like to further explore the Biblical meaning of
sonship, this article will give you valuable insights:
Sonship
Remembrance
in the Afterlife.
Some people have the idea that we will not remember this
life or the things that happened in it in the life to
come. Certain Biblical passages are brought forward to
support this idea. Is this true? What is the Biblical
reality of remembrance in the afterlife?
Death in
the Pot.
The prophet Elisha removed death from a poisoned pot of
food. But can God remove death from this world?
Balaam
the Son of Beor.
Balaam the son of Beor is a mysterious character in the
book of Numbers. Was he a real prophet? What drove him
to disobey the LORD as he did? How did he come to his
ignominious end?
The
Privilege of Speaking.
Considering what a privilege it truly is to be able to
speak the word of God.
Jehu's Way 1.
Jehu's Way 2.
In I Corinthians 9:24-27, Paul talks about running in
such a way as to obtain the prize. As an example of
this, we consider the story of King Jehu from II Kings
9. He started to run well the race God gave him to run,
but how did he end his race?
Alcohol
and the Believer 1: The Old Testament Words.
Considering the Hebrew words for alcohol in the Old
Testament and their usage, positive and negative.
Alcohol
and the Believer 2: The New Testament Words.
Considering the Greek words for alcohol in the New
Testament and their usage, positive and negative.
Alcohol
and the Believer 3: The Use of Alcohol Today.
Since the Bible speaks of alcohol both positively and
negatively in both testaments, what should we conclude
from this? What should our attitude toward alcohol be in
our society and in our culture today? What stand should
we as believers take regarding alcohol?
Steps
to a Godly Maturity Step 1
Steps
to a Godly Maturity Steps 2 and 3
Coming to a place of Godly maturity in our daily lives is something that every believer who loves the Lord should earnestly desire. Yet how is it that we actually achieve a state of maturity in our relationships with Him? What will aid us in coming to that place, if we have not yet reached it?
Consider My Meditation
It might seem like a contradiction to us, but there is such a thing as "Christian meditation." What is it? What kinds of things should we be meditating on?
The major argument those who oppose the Bible make is that there are "contradictions in Scripture" that prove the Bible is not really a Divine book, and is not really trustworthy. This series of articles examines this idea, and shows that, when properly considered and understood, the Bible contains no such contradictions.

The book of Ruth is a fascinating love story in the Old
Testament. Ruth was an ancestor of our Lord Jesus
Christ, and is an example both of Godly submission, and
of the care God has for everyone, even one considered a
stranger in His land. The book of Ruth also contains
many lessons that teach us more about our God and allow
us to know Him better.
