- Series: One Thing
Part: 1
We learn here in John 9 that the disciples assumed the man’s lifelong blindness was punishment for sin, but Jesus explained it was so “the works of God should be made manifest in him.” The man’s neighbors and the Pharisees later interrogated him, refusing to believe the miracle or accept Jesus’ identity. Pressured to denounce Christ, the man held firmly to the undeniable truth of his experience. His testimony became beautifully simple and unshakable: “One thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.” This “one thing” mirrors the believer’s salvation, as Christ gives us a new life that cannot be denied.

Part: 7
This study presents the dramatic conclusion of Stephen's speech before the Sanhedrin in Acts 7, where he directly indicts them as “stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears”—while they boasted in the law they failed to keep. Filled with the Holy Spirit, Stephen sees Jesus standing at the right hand of God, which enrages the council into a violent mob that casts Stephen out and stones him. As he dies, Stephen prays for his persecutors and falls asleep in peace, his martyrdom marking Israel's national fall and the temporary suspension of her prophetic program, leading into the current age of God's grace.

Part: 6
We are in a spiritual battle, and the truth of Christ and God’s Word convicts and cuts at the heart. In this second part of Stephen's defense in front of the Sanhedrin in Acts 7, he recounts Israel's history with Moses to show how their ancestors repeatedly resisted God's chosen leaders. Stephen highlights parallels between Moses and Christ, while exposing the people's ongoing pattern of rebellion, idolatry, and misplaced focus on the temple rather than the living God. He urges humility and a contrite heart that believes God's Word, warning that resisting truth leads to judgment, as seen throughout Israel's history.

In this episode, Stephen commences his defense before the Sanhedrin in Acts 7, recounting Israel's history beginning with God's call to Abraham and then the story of Joseph—who was envied, rejected, and sold by his brothers, yet exalted by God to become their savior. Stephen draws powerful parallels between Joseph and Jesus Christ, showing how the Jewish leaders had likewise rejected their Messiah. Through this review of history, Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, urges them to recognize Jesus as the promised Deliverer, repent, and accept Him by faith, just as their fathers eventually accepted Joseph.

Part: 4
Christ did not come into a G-rated world—He came into one of violence, fear, and unrelenting evil. Christ, however, did not come to avoid sin and death, but to confront it through His cross and resurrection. This lesson recounts the darker side of Christ’s birth, as seen in Herod’s murderous rage against Bethlehem’s infants. God protected Jesus by directing Joseph to flee to Egypt, fulfilling prophecy and echoing Moses’ own preservation from a tyrant’s decree. Herod’s massacre reveals the depths of human wickedness, yet it also highlights Christ as the true Deliverer who came to save humanity.

Part: 3
David’s sin with Bathsheba leads him into a downward spiral of deception, culminating in the arranged death of her husband Uriah, a loyal and honorable soldier. In this teaching, we learn that despite multiple attempts to cover his wrongdoing, David cannot hide his sin from God. The prophet Nathan confronts him with a parable that exposes his guilt, leading David to recognize the seriousness of his actions. Though David deserved judgment, God extended grace and forgiveness, demonstrating that even great sinners can receive mercy and still be used by God when they return to Him.

Part: 2
This message reveals how John the Baptist’s death unfolds through a tragic mix of circumstances at a birthday banquet. After John boldly condemned Herod’s unlawful marriage, Herodias sought his death, and her daughter’s dance provided the opportunity to demand John’s head. Though Herod feared John as a righteous and holy man, his pride before his guests outweighed his conscience, leading to John’s execution. Jesus later honored John as the greatest of the prophets, as one whose life was all about pointing others to Him—an example we should all follow as we are transformed by grace.

Part: 1
This study shows how Cain stands as the prototype of the unbeliever, offering God a self made, bloodless sacrifice that rejects God’s revealed way of approach, while Abel responds in obedient faith with the required offering of a firstborn lamb. When God accepts Abel and rejects Cain, Cain’s pride and anger boil over and he murders his righteous brother in the field. God confronts Cain, exposes his guilt, and sentences him to a life of wandering, marking him so others would not kill him. Abel, though murdered, still “speaks” through his faith, illustrating the enduring legacy of those who trust and obey God.
- Series: Are You Rapture Ready?
Part: 6
In this episode, the Apostle Paul distinguishes between Israel’s prophetic resurrections and the mystery resurrection revealed uniquely to him for the Church, the Body of Christ. Christ’s own resurrection has guaranteed the prophetic resurrection of Israel’s saints at the Second Coming and the final resurrection of unbelievers for judgment. But in 1 Corinthians 15:51–52, Paul unveils a previously hidden truth: at the Rapture, believers of this present age—both dead and living—will be instantly changed and given glorified, immortal bodies. With this hope certain, Paul urges believers to remain steadfast, continually abounding in the Lord’s work.

Part: 5
In this teaching, we learn that because believers are “children of light,” we must not live with the spiritual indifference and blindness that characterizes the unbelieving world. The Apostle Paul contrasts those who are spiritually asleep—unaware of coming judgment—with believers who are called to stay awake, living with purpose and urgency because the Rapture could occur at any time. He urges Christians to protect our minds and hearts as we serve others and warn them of the coming Tribulation. Finally, Paul assures believers with the hope that God has not appointed us to wrath but to deliverance through Christ.
