This lesson looks into the vision of the new Jerusalem as a living city where “a pure river of [the] water of life” flows from “the throne of God and of the Lamb” and “the tree of life” yields monthly fruit, symbolizing eternal provision and restoration. The curse from the Fall will be removed, God’s throne will be established there, and the redeemed will experience the joyful, active service and reign of God’s people in the renewed creation, centered on intimate fellowship with the Lord. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/216-the-city-of-life/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LdihfNhDGJ0 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=216-part-10-the-city-of-life Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/215-the-city-of-light/ Thu, 13 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67823 In this episode, we learn that in the new Jerusalem, gold will be so plentiful it will be the pavement on which people will walk! The closing verses of Revelation 21 portray the new Jerusalem as a radiant, gold paved holy city that needs no sun or moon because “the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.” The passage emphasizes the city’s interior splendor—streets of pure gold like transparent glass—and that its open gates welcome the saved nations and their kings who bring honor into the city. The new Jerusalem is Israel’s eternal capital on the renewed earth and celebrates God’s presence, perpetual light, and the purity of the city, where nothing that defiles will ever enter. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/215-the-city-of-light/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/NJHe94ufWkA Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=215-part-9-the-city-of-light Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/214-the-city-of-gold/ Wed, 12 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67825 This message examines the new Jerusalem as Israel’s eternal, divinely prepared capital—a vast, cube-shaped city descending from heaven, radiant with God’s glory and built of precious stones and pure gold. It emphasizes the city’s perfect, orderly design and its symbolic features of twelve gates and twelve foundations. The city is presented as the fulfillment of God’s covenant promises to Israel and a place of honor for the prophetic saints, while the Church retains its heavenly citizenship, but will still have access to the earth and the new Jerusalem as part of the family of God. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/214-the-city-of-gold/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Y_cxQ3zEcYk Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=214-part-8-the-city-of-gold Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/213-the-city-of-glory/ Tue, 11 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67828 When you read all the fine details about the new Jerusalem in Revelation 21 and 22, and the glory, beauty, and intricacy of it, you see how much God loves the redeemed saints from His prophetic program. In this teaching, we learn of the city’s majestic features: great walls with twelve gates named for Israel’s tribes, twelve foundations bearing the apostles’ names, and brilliance that needs no sun. The new Jerusalem is presented as Israel’s earthly hope—while the Church’s hope remains in heaven. Overall, the passage highlights God’s loving preparation, the permanence of His promises, and the joy awaiting the redeemed. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/213-the-city-of-glory/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/SeJqjUKMPXc Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=213-part-7-the-city-of-glory Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/212-true-and-faithful-words/ Mon, 10 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67830 We can’t always trust people’s words. But we can always trust God’s words, which will be fulfilled exactly as He has said in His Word. This episode opens with Revelations 21:5, where the Lord Jesus Christ says to the Apostle John that His promises about the new heaven, new earth, and new Jerusalem are certain and must be recorded “for these words are true and faithful.” Later, Christ identifies Himself as “Alpha and Omega,” underscoring His divine sovereignty and the finality of God’s plan. God’s Word is true and faithful to what it promises to both believers and unbelievers. The moment you trust that Christ died for your sins personally and rose again, you are saved from your sins and the lake of fire, and obtain the free gift of salvation, a home in heaven, and eternal life in Christ. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/212-true-and-faithful-words/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/sGkNcJBEun8 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=212-part-6-true-and-faithful-words Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/211-no-more/ Fri, 07 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67832 Revelation 21 describes the eternal state in which God creates a new heaven and new earth, with the new Jerusalem descending from heaven to the earth as a holy, radiant city where God will dwell with His people. It emphasizes that the first heaven and earth will pass away, the curse of sin will be removed, and the new creation will be free from death, sorrow, and suffering. The new Jerusalem is pictured as a bride adorned for her Husband and will be inhabited by the redeemed, who will live in God’s immediate presence. In this lesson, we also learn how many of the things that are true for Israel on the earth in the eternal state will be true for the Church, the Body of Christ, in heaven forever as well. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/211-no-more/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/kxgup1rOYnc Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=211-part-5-the-final-judgment-no-more Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/210-the-final-judgment/ Thu, 06 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67834 In this episode, we learn that when unbelievers stand before Christ at the Great White Throne Judgment, they will not be judged by the code of morality they have written for themselves, but by God's perfect standard. And because they died in their sins and unrighteousness, all who appear at this judgment will be eternally condemned to a place of eternal torment in the lake of fire. May these sobering truths drive us toward fulfilling our commission to beg people to be reconciled to God before it’s too late. There are many roads to hell, but there is only one way to avoid it—believing that Christ died for your sins personally and rose again. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/210-the-final-judgment/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/n300HeAjvvc Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=210-part-4-the-final-judgment Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/209-the-battle-to-end-all-battles/ Wed, 05 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67836 This teaching explains that during the Millennial Kingdom, many people born into its perfect conditions will still reject Christ—not believing He is the Messiah and the Son of God—and that after 1,000 years, Satan will be released to deceive those unbelievers and gather them for a final rebellion. That revolt will instantly be destroyed when God sends fire from heaven, and Satan is then cast into the lake of fire to be tormented forever. This passage in Revelation 20 illustrates that human hearts remain sinful apart from new birth, so even utopian conditions cannot produce universal faith, and that God’s sovereign plan includes a final purging of unbelief before the eternal state. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/209-the-battle-to-end-all-battles/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/O6PKO_VaSKI Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=209-part-3-the-battle-to-end-all-battles Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/208-resurrected-reigning-saints/ Tue, 04 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67838 This message focuses on Revelation 20:4-6, which explains that Tribulation martyrs who refuse the beast’s mark will be resurrected in the “first resurrection,” given thrones and priestly authority, and will live and reign with Christ for 1,000 years. The “rest of the dead” (unbelievers) will not be raised until after the Millennium and will face final judgment. Although this passage emphasizes Israel’s role as priests in the earthly kingdom, we as members of the Body of Christ can also be urged to live with eternity in view, and that faithful service as Christ’s ambassadors will be rewarded with an eternal reign in the heavenlies. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/208-resurrected-reigning-saints/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/sdy1wCvfnfc Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=208-part-2-resurrected-reigning-saints Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/207-the-devils-days-are-numbered/ Mon, 03 Aug 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67840 We begin a series that examines the events that the Apostle John saw leading up to and then into the eternal state, as recorded in the last three chapters of the Book of Revelation. As we’re bombarded with chaos, temptation, deception, broken families, corrupt governments, and opposition against God—much of which is the result of Satan’s work—it is very comforting to know that the devil’s days are numbered. We are reminded in this episode that God is in control and will have the final say over the devil. Satan has made the fatal choice in rebelling against God and at first will be bound for 1,000 years, loosed for a short time, and then ultimately cast into the lake of fire to suffer in torment there forever. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/207-the-devils-days-are-numbered/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LuJ4X_SgLH0 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-201-232/?attribute_pa_episode=207-part-1-the-devils-days-are-numbered Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-scenes-from-the-final-act/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/379-rome/ Fri, 31 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67333 After being “delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,” the Apostle Paul arranges a meeting with the Jewish rulers of the synagogues in Rome to explain why he was a prisoner there and, chiefly, to share the truth with them of Christ’s resurrection and the gospel of grace. We learn in this episode that the response of the Jews to Paul’s teaching in Rome was mixed, but a familiar one: some were persuaded by what had been spoken and believed, and others believed not. But this never deterred Paul, the preacher, as he boldly and unashamedly proclaimed the Word, so that others might be saved. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/379-rome/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/P1gloz4OqmM Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=379-paul-the-preacher-rome-acts-2817-31 Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-paul-the-preacher/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/378-miletus/ Thu, 30 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67331 On the return leg of his third apostolic journey, with his destination being Jerusalem, the Apostle Paul makes a stopover in Miletus to meet with the elders of the Ephesian church to give them instruction, warning and encouragement. This episode reveals Paul’s three-point discourse to the church’s leadership. He reviews his past three-year ministry in Ephesus, informs the men of his present situation and current ministry and journey to Jerusalem, and reminds the elders of their future responsibilities as the spiritual leaders of their flock. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/378-miletus/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/HJmtBV9Y4GE Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=378-paul-the-preacher-miletus-acts-2017-35 Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-paul-the-preacher/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/377-mars-hill/ Wed, 29 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67329 Paul’s second apostolic journey brings him to Athens, the intellectual center of the Greek world at that time. While there, he engages in dialogue in the synagogue with Jews and Gentiles about Christ, and also in the marketplace, where he interacts with everyday Athenians and also two groups of philosophers, who bring the apostle to Mars’ Hill to explain his “strange” teaching of Christ and the resurrection to the city’s main Council. We see in this episode that Paul’s purpose in his message that day was to convict the idol-worshipping Athenians of their accountability to the one true God. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/377-mars-hill/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/dNovkNB9FOQ Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=377-paul-the-preacher-mars-hill Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-paul-the-preacher/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/376-antioch-in-pisidia-pt-2/ Tue, 28 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67327 As the Apostle Paul continues his talk in the synagogue at Antioch of Pisidia to both Jews and some Gentiles, he turns to the heart of his message—the resurrection of Christ—and how it was the fulfillment of prophetic promises in the Old Testament. In this episode we see that while his first teaching there was warmly received, his following week’s sermon stirred up opposition among antagonistic, non-believing Jews. This prompted Paul to make one of his three pronouncements in the Book of Acts that he was turning to the Gentiles with his message of grace. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/376-antioch-in-pisidia-pt-2/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/h7CZBE8XfW8 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=376-paul-the-preacher-antioch-in-pisidia-part-2 Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-paul-the-preacher/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/375-antioch-in-pisidia-pt-1/ Mon, 27 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67324 In Acts 13, the Apostle Paul is on his first apostolic journey, during which he faithfully and boldly proclaimed God’s Word primarily to the nations. In our lives and ministries, we, too, need to bring the truth of the Word of God to both unbelievers and believers. Here, in the first of two episodes that chronicle Paul’s visit to Antioch of Pisidia in Asia Minor, however, the apostle starts off preaching to mostly Jews in the local synagogue, outlining God’s providential care during Israel’s history, and then explaining how prophecy was fulfilled when the nation rejected and killed her promised Messiah. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/375-antioch-in-pisidia-pt-1/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/V9p9mBRaCtw Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=375-paul-the-preacher-antioch-in-pisidia-part-1 Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-paul-the-preacher/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/410-we-glory-in-tribulations/ Fri, 24 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67305 The Apostle Paul explains in Romans 5:1-5 about the wonderful benefits of being justified by faith, namely that we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. And we can also glory in our tribulations, which ultimately strengthens a hope that does not disappoint because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the indwelling Holy Spirit. These truths provide deep comfort—our past is settled, our present is secure, and our future is certain—even as God uses trials to mature us and deepen our hope in Him. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/410-we-glory-in-tribulations/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/lfGjjQdGHR8 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-402-410/?attribute_pa_episode=410-we-glory-in-tribulations Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-comfort-from-above/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/409-perfect-peace/ Thu, 23 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67302 In Isaiah 26:3-4, God promises to keep in perfect peace the one whose mind is stayed on Him because he trusts in Him. This complete, abiding peace comes from leaning on the Lord Jehovah, Who is our everlasting strength. Jesus Christ personally gives believers His own peace—not the fragile, circumstance-dependent peace the world offers—as seen when He slept peacefully in the storm and then calmed it with a word. The Apostle Paul echoes this in 2 Thessalonians 3, encouraging us to trust Christ for deep, untroubled peace that guards our hearts and minds through the trying times in life. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/409-perfect-peace/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/5OITpDdl7UQ Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-402-410/?attribute_pa_episode=409-perfect-peace Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-comfort-from-above/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/408-god-is-our-refuge-and-strength/ Wed, 22 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67299 The psalmist of Psalm 46 proclaims that “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble,” so His people need not fear even under the most catastrophic circumstances. This psalm contrasts the chaos and raging of the nations during the time of Tribulation judgment with the glorious hope of the Millennial Kingdom. Concluding with God’s command to “Be still, and know that I am God”—as He will be exalted among the nations—the psalm affirms that “The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge,” bringing comfort and peace to believers who trust in Him amid any trouble. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/408-god-is-our-refuge-and-strength/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/NEXanfoXwnc Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-402-410/?attribute_pa_episode=408-god-is-our-refuge-and-strength Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-comfort-from-above/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/407-the-lord-is-my-light-and-my-salvation/ Tue, 21 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67296 In Psalm 27:1-6, David declares with bold confidence that even when the wicked attack or an army encamps against him, his heart does not fear because he trusts in God’s protection and past deliverances. David’s singular desire is to dwell in the house of the Lord all his days, where in times of trouble, the Lord hides David in the secret place of His tabernacle, and sets him high upon a rock, above his enemies. David responds with worship—offering sacrifices of joy and singing praises to the Lord—modeling the comfort, security, and confident faith available to believers who take refuge in God. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/407-the-lord-is-my-light-and-my-salvation/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/_QfC8-kvrp4 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-402-410/?attribute_pa_episode=407-the-lord-is-my-light-and-my-salvation Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-comfort-from-above/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/406-good-hope-through-grace/ Mon, 20 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67293 The Apostle Paul, in 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17, gives thanks to God for the Thessalonian believers, whom He chose from the beginning to salvation, through the sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth of the gospel of grace. This salvation leads to obtaining the glory of Christ at the Rapture, which is why Paul urges them to stand fast and hold to his teachings they received by word or epistle. God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, Who loved us, have given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace. Paul prayed that this truth would comfort believers’ hearts and establish them in every good work. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/406-good-hope-through-grace/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ofBTtiix4Jw Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-402-410/?attribute_pa_episode=406-good-hope-through-grace Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-comfort-from-above/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/god-is-for-us/ Fri, 17 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67291 In Romans 8:31-39, the Apostle Paul powerfully affirms that “If God be for us, who can be against us?”—that with His own Son being delivered up for us all, God will freely give us all things. No one can successfully accuse or condemn believers because God has justified us and Christ sits at the Father’s right hand, interceding for us. Nothing can separate us from the love of Christ—not tribulation, persecution, principalities, or any other creature. Instead, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us, giving believers unshakable security in Christ. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/god-is-for-us/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/B8g3ocOtGzw Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-402-410/?attribute_pa_episode=405-god-is-for-us Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-comfort-from-above/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/404-my-grace-is-sufficient-for-thee/ Thu, 16 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67288 The Apostle Paul, in 2 Corinthians 12:1-10, chooses to boast not in receiving revelations or in his accomplishments, but rather in his weaknesses. To keep him humble, God allowed a painful “thorn in the flesh,” and after Paul pleaded three times for its removal, the Lord answered, “My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Paul learned to gladly glory in his distresses and infirmities, because when he was weak, then he was strong through the power of Christ, showing us that God’s grace is always enough and that our shortcomings bring about God’s strength. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/404-my-grace-is-sufficient-for-thee/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/fsbBSBIOi_Y Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-402-410/?attribute_pa_episode=404-my-grace-is-sufficient-for-thee Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-comfort-from-above/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/403-the-god-of-all-comfort/ Wed, 15 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66864 In 2 Corinthians 1:3-11, the Apostle Paul praises God as the Father of mercies, Who comforts believers in all their tribulations so they, in turn, can comfort others. Paul illustrates this through his own sufferings, explaining that as they increase, God’s consolation through Christ abounds, enabling endurance and mutual encouragement within the Body of Christ. The apostle came to trust that the God of all comfort Who delivered him in the past can deliver him day by day in the present, and would continue to deliver him in the future, until the day when he would be completely set free from the troubles of this world. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/403-the-god-of-all-comfort/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym67C9wCftU Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-402-410/?attribute_pa_episode=403-the-god-of-all-comfort Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-comfort-from-above/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/101-john-mark/ Tue, 14 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=67322 In this message, we focus on John Mark, who grew up in a godly home in Jerusalem and later joined the Apostle Paul and Barnabas on their first missionary journey. But when the going got tough, Mark became discouraged and abandoned the mission, returning home. Though his failure caused sharp conflict between Paul and Barnabas, Barnabas gave Mark another chance, and over time he matured into a faithful servant of Christ. Paul would later call him a fellow laborer and “profitable…for the ministry,” showing how God not only restored Mark, but also used him to pen one of the four Gospels.

He explains that Onesimus has been transformed by God’s grace and asks Philemon to welcome him not merely as a servant but as a “brother beloved.” Paul even offers to pay any debt Onesimus owes, illustrating the gospel picture of Christ taking our debt and placing it on His own account. The letter becomes a living illustration of how believers are to extend the same grace they have received in Christ.

In this study, we’re introduced to Onesimus, a slave in Philemon’s household who ran away—likely after stealing from him—and fled over 1,200 miles to Rome. But, while there, in God’s providence, Onesimus encountered the Apostle Paul, heard the gospel, and was saved, becoming Paul’s spiritual son. The opening of this Pauline epistle highlights Philemon’s love, faith, and ministry, setting the stage for Paul’s gracious request that he live out the gospel toward his returning runaway slave.

This lesson on 1 Kings 19 shows how the exhausted and discouraged prophet asked God to take his life—the Lord, however, responded not with rebuke, but with rest, food, and gentle care. At Mount Sinai, God revealed Himself not via wind, earthquake, or fire, but through a “still small voice,” showing Elijah that His power often works quietly and unexpectedly, and restoring him to service.

No person is beyond the reach of God’s grace or His power to save—we gain a home in heaven by faith. This episode explores the Lord’s parable of the prodigal son, who demands his inheritance early, leaves home, and wastes everything in sinful, reckless living. Hitting rock bottom, he decides to return home in humility, hoping only to be treated as a hired servant. But while he is still far off, his father runs to him with compassion, embraces him, and overwhelmingly restores him, rejoicing that his lost son has been found.

In this message, Jonah’s downward spiral continues, as he sinks from ship to sea to the belly of a great fish, where he finally turns back to God in prayer. God delivers and recommissions him, and Jonah reluctantly preaches in Nineveh, where an astonishing city wide repentance leads God to spare more than 600,000 people. Instead of rejoicing, Jonah becomes angry that God showed compassion, but by the end, he has learned that God’s mercy reaches even those we least expect.

His attempt to flee “from the presence of the LORD” leads him onto a ship and God hurls a violent storm that terrifies the sailors while Jonah sleeps below deck. Jonah admits to them that he is running from the God, so they reluctantly throw him overboard, immediately calming the storm. God then appoints a great fish to swallow Jonah, showing His patience and grace toward a runaway prophet whom He intends to restore.

The Jews killed 75,000 enemies empire-wide, including Haman’s ten sons, who were publicly impaled, at Queen Esther’s request, to serve as a warning. Over the next two days, the Jews rested and celebrated, turning sorrow into joy. It was at this time that Mordecai established the annual Feast of Purim as a remembrance of how God sovereignly reversed their doom, while Mordecai himself rose to second-in-command, seeking the welfare of his people. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/367-the-victory-of-the-jews/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssOZsOcPcTE Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=367-the-victory-of-the-jews Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/366-the-reward-of-esther/ Thu, 02 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66622 This episode begins on the day of Haman’s execution, during which King Ahasuerus also rewards Queen Esther with Haman’s entire estate and promotes Mordecai to chief officer by giving him the same royal signet ring that Haman once used to seal the Jews’ death decree. Although the king is unable to reverse Haman’s irrevocable edict, at Esther’s tearful plea, he authorizes Mordecai to write a counter-decree—empowering the Jews—on the very day Haman had chosen for their annihilation. Jews everywhere celebrate with gladness, feasts, and honor—another display of God’s behind-the-scenes providence turning the tables for His people’s deliverance. Not wanting to be numbered among Israel’s enemies, many Gentiles instead become proselytes to the Jewish religion. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/366-the-reward-of-esther/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77Ht-ecObQo Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=366-the-reward-of-esther-and-mordecai Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/365-the-fall-of-haman/ Wed, 01 Jul 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66620 In this episode, the scene opens at Queen Esther’s second banquet, where she courageously reveals to King Ahasuerus that she and her Jewish people have been “sold” to be slain and destroyed (echoing Haman’s own decree), pleading for their lives, while also subtly noting the annihilation of the Jews would result in financial loss to the empire. Enraged, the king demands to know the culprit, and Esther reveals that it’s “this wicked Haman.” As the king storms into the garden, Haman falls on Esther’s couch begging for mercy—which the returning king misinterprets as assault. After the gallows Haman built for Mordecai is pointed out to the king, he orders Haman to be impaled on it instead. Haman’s rapid descent illustrates God’s divine providence and foreshadows the Antichrist’s disgraceful end. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/365-the-fall-of-haman/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pS9b4w9LsY Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=365-the-fall-of-haman Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/364-the-rise-of-mordecai/ Tue, 30 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66618 This episode opens as a sleepless King Ahasuerus has the royal chronicles read and discovers that Mordecai had exposed an assassination plot five years earlier yet received no reward; at that exact moment, Haman arrives to request Mordecai’s execution. The king instead asks Haman what should be done to recognize the man the king delights to honor. Assuming it is himself, Haman suggests the royal treatment, only to be commanded to do all of it for Mordecai. Humiliated, Haman obeys, before rushing home in deep mourning, where his wife and friends predict his certain demise, just as the king’s chamberlains arrive to escort him to Queen Esther’s second banquet—another stunning display of God’s veiled providence weaving natural events together for the Jews’ deliverance and Haman’s ruin. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/364-the-rise-of-mordecai/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsEdvxSgZZw Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=364-the-rise-of-mordecai Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/363-the-request-of-esther/ Mon, 29 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66616 In this episode, we see how Queen Esther courageously stands uninvited in the inner court of the palace; when King Ahasuerus sees her, he extends the golden scepter, which spares her life. Esther calmly invites him and Haman to a banquet that very day, at which she promises to disclose her petition at a second banquet with them both the following day, building suspense while God’s providence works behind the scenes. Honored at the first banquet, Haman departs it elated, yet is instantly filled with rage upon seeing Mordecai’s refusal to stand or bow in his presence. Haman’s wife and friends urge him to erect the gallows for Mordecai’s public impalement, which Haman eagerly orders, setting the stage for his own downfall. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/363-the-request-of-esther/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGqr3Q_PMqs Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=363-the-request-of-esther Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/362-the-decision-of-esther/ Fri, 26 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66614 This episode details Mordecai’s public mourning, after learning of Haman’s irreversible decree to annihilate every Jew throughout the provinces. Queen Esther becomes alarmed at Mordecai’s grief and later learns of Haman’s evil plot. Mordecai urges Esther to approach the king and plead for her people, and warns that silence will not exempt her. Esther responds with resolve: she will go and make her desperate plea to the king, albeit unsummoned, which was punishable by death. This shift from fear to faith marks the story’s turning point, as Esther has been precisely positioned by God to thwart Haman’s genocidal plan and preserve His people. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/362-the-decision-of-esther/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9PeRMy-DwU Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=362-the-decision-of-esther Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/361-the-rise-of-haman/ Thu, 25 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66612 Following Queen Esther’s coronation and Mordecai’s saving of King Ahasuerus, in this episode we discover the unexpected promotion of Haman to the highest office in Persia, which brings about the command for all officials to bow and give him divine-level reverence. Mordecai, a faithful Jew and magistrate, refuses on religious grounds, enraging Haman, who learns he is Jewish and plots to annihilate Mordecai and every Jew throughout the provinces. Haman then bribes Ahasuerus to authorize an irrevocable decree to slaughter all Jews. Yet God’s unseen providence is already at work, foreshadowing Haman as a type of the future Antichrist, and the Jews’ deliverance, which is still celebrated to this day at the Feast of Purim. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/361-the-rise-of-haman/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tx4ttpKFK8k Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=361-the-rise-of-haman Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/360-the-rise-of-esther/ Wed, 24 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66610 Three years after Queen Vashti’s removal, the Persian king Ahasuerus accepts his servants’ plan to gather beautiful young virgins to select a new queen. In Shushan, the Jewish exile Mordecai had raised his orphaned cousin Esther as his own daughter; after royal officials select her for the harem, she is eventually crowned queen, while concealing her Jewish identity at Mordecai’s command. Later, Mordecai—now an official at the king’s gate—uncovers an assassination plot by two royal chamberlains, reports it through Esther, and has their execution recorded in the royal chronicles. The events in this episode continue to reveal God’s hidden hand of protection over the Jewish nation. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/360-the-rise-of-esther/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj3mlSqJEkU Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=360-the-rise-of-esther Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/359-the-fall-of-vashti/ Tue, 23 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66608 Esther is one of two books of the Bible named after women, with Ruth being the other. It’s fascinating to note that Esther is the only book in Scripture in which there is no explicit reference to God. But while God is not mentioned, He is still clearly at work, demonstrating His hidden providence for the nation of Israel. In this episode, we see how the deposing of the Persian queen Vashti by King Ahasuerus opened the throne for Esther, which paved the way for preserving the exiled Jews from future extinction. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/359-the-fall-of-vashti/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KinYu2vu9sE Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=359-the-fall-of-vashti Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-esther-god-behind-the-seen/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/333-finishing-to-win/ Mon, 22 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66606 This episode examines the Apostle Paul’s triumphant declaration in 2 Timothy 4:6-8 that he was ready to be poured out as a drink offering, his departure at hand; he had fought the good fight, finished his course, and kept the faith, knowing a crown of righteousness awaited him at the Judgment Seat of Christ. Paul viewed his life as a soldier’s battle, an athlete’s race, and a farmer’s stewardship—never quitting despite persecution, completing the ministry given him, and guarding the truth revealed to him for this dispensation of grace. The message closes with a challenge to believers to finish their own course with the same passion, so they, too, will have no regrets when standing before the Lord. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/333-finishing-to-win/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=No8bAoIlcgM Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=333-finishing-to-win Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-winning-and-losing/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/332-battling-to-win/ Fri, 19 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66604 In this episode, we discuss the Apostle Paul’s three vocational metaphors in 2 Timothy 2:3-13 for faithful Christian service and ministry: endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ, strive lawfully as an athlete in competition, and labor diligently as a husbandman/farmer. Paul applies these to the Judgment Seat of Christ, where suffering for “my gospel” (Christ’s death and resurrection according to the revelation of the mystery) yields eternal glory and reigning with Him, while unfaithfulness brings loss of reward. Every believer in Christ will live with Him in heaven, but it’s up to each individual believer in their stand for Christ whether they will live with Him in a higher reigning position. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/332-battling-to-win/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogSEx-ONowA Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=332-battling-to-win Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-winning-and-losing/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/331-working-to-win/ Thu, 18 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66602 This episode covers Colossians 3:22-25 (and 4:1), instructing employees (“servants”) to obey bosses (“masters”) in everything—not with eyeservice as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart fearing God—knowing they will receive the “reward of the inheritance” at the Judgment Seat of Christ for such labor, while those who do wrong will suffer loss. And bosses must treat their workers justly and equitably, knowing they, too, will answer to their heavenly Master. The teaching emphasizes that work is God’s pre-fall idea, manifests godliness, and carries eternal significance when done heartily for Christ’s glory, regardless of the profession, turning ordinary labor into worship and ministry that will yield eternal reward. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/331-working-to-win/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaONrGp3d7s Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=331-working-to-win Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-winning-and-losing/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/330-running-to-win/ Wed, 17 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66600 Here, the Apostle Paul, drawing from the familiar Isthmian Games near Corinth, challenges believers in 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 to run the Christian race with the same intense determination, self-discipline, and purpose as the athletes: “So run, that ye may obtain,” being temperate in all things and keeping the body under subjection so that, after preaching the gospel to others, one is not disqualified from reward. The race is not about losing one’s salvation (which is secure by grace through faith) but about winning an incorruptible crown and eternal rewards at the Judgment Seat of Christ—thus believers must run with patience, laying aside every weight and sin while looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/330-running-to-win/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YpxPZXs2hg Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=330-running-to-win Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-winning-and-losing/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/329-building-to-win/ Tue, 16 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66598 This episode highlights 1 Corinthians 3:8-15 to show believers as co-laborers with God in His Church—both as His “husbandry” (field planted and watered by Paul and Apollos) and His “building” (with Paul as the wise master builder who laid the sole foundation of Jesus Christ). Believers must take heed how they build on that foundation, using rewardable materials of gold, silver, and precious stones (faithful, grace-based service that abides the testing fire) rather than wood, hay, and stubble (carnal or mixed works that burn), so that at the Judgment Seat every man’s labor will be revealed, rewarded if it endures, or cause loss if it does not—yet the believer himself will still be saved “yet so as by fire.” https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/329-building-to-win/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2Lh3EXTw8c Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=329-building-to-win Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-winning-and-losing/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/373-i-am-the-way-the-truth-and-the-life/ Mon, 15 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66596 In this episode, we see Jesus comforting His distressed disciples—following the troubling news of betrayal, denial, and His impending departure—with truth concerning their future hope with Him in the millennial kingdom on earth. When Thomas questions the way, Jesus declares that He is “the way, the truth, and the life,” providing the only path to an eternity in God's presence. Upon Philip’s request to see the Father, Jesus affirms His deity and perfect union with the Father, declaring that knowing and seeing Him equals knowing and seeing the Father, as evidenced by his truthful words and miraculous works. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/373-i-am-the-way-the-truth-and-the-life/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urM3JP9WFxU Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=373-i-am-the-way-the-truth-and-the-life Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-who-is-jesus/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/372-i-and-my-father-are-one/ Fri, 12 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66594 If the Jews weren’t convinced as to Christ’s previous claim of deity with His “I am” statement, it certainly was reinforced with His pronouncement, “I and My Father are one.” We see in this episode Christ beginning His discourse with the Jewish leaders with the fact that, as God, He has the authority to give eternal life, and also the power to keep His “sheep,” or followers, eternally safe. Christ then let the truth of His Person and identity stand or fall on His works and miracles, which demonstrated His unity and oneness with the Father. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/372-i-and-my-father-are-one/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNzHfD1BTRQ Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=372-i-and-my-father-are-one Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-who-is-jesus/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/371-before-abraham-was-i-am/ Thu, 11 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66591 John 8:31-59 is the account of the Jewish leaders’ outrage over one of the most powerful statements in the Word of God as to the deity of Jesus Christ: “Before Abraham was, I am.” With this climactic and dramatic self-proclamation, Christ told them that He is the eternal God, existing not only during the time of Abraham, but before it and from eternity past. This intense back and forth, culminating in the Jews wanting to stone Him for blasphemy, should serve as evidence to the contrary for those who suggest that Christ never claimed to be God. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/371-before-abraham-was-i-am/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTb-ddDcSaI Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=371-before-abraham-was-i-am Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-who-is-jesus/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/370-he-is-the-son-of-man/ Wed, 10 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66588 The title, Son of God, is in reference to Christ’s deity as the second member of the Godhead and that He is fully God. The title, Son of man, refers to His humanity as the Messiah and that He is also fully man. In this episode, we see that these two titles are intertwined, since Christ, the man, never acted independently of His Father. We are also reminded of the four chief witnesses to Christ’s identity as the Son of man: John the Baptist, Christ’s works and miracles, God the Father, and the Scriptures. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/370-he-is-the-son-of-man/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXQ513pW7b0 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=370-he-is-the-son-of-man Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-who-is-jesus/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/369-this-is-indeed-the-christ/ Tue, 09 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66586 As we continue with our series on “Who is Jesus?” we see in this episode, through Jesus’s interaction with the Samaritan woman at the well, that He is “the Christ, the Saviour of the world.” The woman was caught off guard by the conversation, considering there was great enmity between the Samaritans and the Jews at the time. But that didn’t prevent Christ from also offering her “living water” and plainly identifying Himself as the promised Messiah, the One for Whom this woman looked and hoped. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/369-this-is-indeed-the-christ/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaRslbNhRA8 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=369-this-is-indeed-the-christ Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-who-is-jesus/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/368-this-is-the-son-of-god/ Mon, 08 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66584 The identity of Jesus was made clear early on when He was baptized by John the Baptist. Here, at the dawn of His ministry, Christ was greeted with words prophesying and declaring His destiny. The title “Lamb of God” foreshadowed Christ’s substitutionary death on the cross for our sins as a sacrificial lamb. This episode chronicles the beginning of the calling of the twelve to follow Jesus during His earthly ministry, as they come to recognize Him as Israel’s promised Messiah, the Son of God. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/368-this-is-the-son-of-god/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1i4FeBDm4A Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=368-this-is-the-son-of-god Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-who-is-jesus/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/134-the-promise-of-his-coming/ Fri, 05 Jun 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66038 In his second epistle, the Apostle Peter warns that in Israel’s future Tribulation, scoffers will deny Christ’s promised Second Coming. As we find out in this episode, however, Peter reminds them that these scoffers “willingly are ignorant” of God’s past interventions. He explains the “one thing” Israel must remember: God relates to time differently, so what seems like delay is actually His longsuffering, giving people opportunity to repent. Finally, Peter points to the Apostle Paul’s writings, which shows that God’s dispensation of grace explains the temporary postponement of Christ’s return to Israel.

Jesus first confronted his shallow view of Him as merely a “good teacher,” then reminded him of the commandments he claimed to keep. Finally, Jesus exposed the “one thing” he lacked—his riches had become his god—and told him to sell all, give to the poor, and follow Him. The young man went away sorrowful because he loved his possessions more than eternal life, illustrating how wealth can hinder devotion to God. This study also shows that under grace today, salvation is received freely by believing in Christ alone, and not by works.

Paul admits he has not yet reached full maturity, but like a runner, he presses forward with focused determination, refusing to be hindered by past successes, failures, or religious credentials. Paul’s “one thing” is to forget what lies behind and reach toward God’s goal for him—Christlikeness—while urging believers to do the same.

When she complained, Jesus gently told her that only “one thing” was truly necessary—the attentive, worshipful focus Mary had chosen. The account teaches that while serving Christ is good, devotion must come before duty, because time spent with Him is the “good part” that can never be taken away. Believers today likewise need to guard against busyness and prioritize spending time with Christ in His Word.

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.

It is also incorrect to say that Paul should have been the twelfth apostle or that he was the thirteenth apostle of the kingdom. This episode shines the spotlight on these errors, while also revealing the distinction of Paul’s unique ministry, commissioned by God, to the Gentiles and for the current age of grace. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/374-the-apostle-of-grace/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/KMSOsuN8oIE Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-351-375/?attribute_pa_episode=374-the-apostle-of-grace 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/299-one-more-year/ Thu, 28 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66054 Something went wrong in Israel when Christ came and ministered in her midst for 3½ years—the nation as a whole rejected her Messiah. In this episode, we learn from a parable the Lord gave in Luke 13 that the unspiritual nation was granted “one more year” to allow for a final national opportunity to repent and believe. With another refusal of the Holy Spirit’s witness at the stoning of Stephen, Israel was temporarily cast aside and the prophesied Tribulation judgment postponed. God then ushered in the current dispensation of grace and the “mystery” revealed to the Apostle Paul, and formed the Church, the Body of Christ. The Tribulation will still take place one day, after the Rapture, so all are urged today to trust in Christ’s death and resurrection for salvation to escape the coming wrath. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/299-one-more-year/ Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/8GwlQOmssNI Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-251-252/?attribute_pa_episode=299-one-more-year Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-rightly-dividing-the-word-2/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/325-second-coming/ Mon, 25 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66058 In this episode we discuss Christ’s inevitable Second Coming, which will occur at the end of the Tribulation, to deliver the nation of Israel from the Antichrist, crushing his armies at the Battle of Armageddon and establishing the millennial kingdom on earth—distinct from the earlier pre-tribulational Rapture of the Church. Revelation 19 vividly describes Jesus returning on a white war horse, with eyes like flames of fire, many crowns, a blood-dipped robe, and a sharp sword from His mouth that slays the nations, and later results in the Antichrist and false prophet being cast alive into the lake of fire. The battle culminates in a river of blood, supernatural confusion among the enemy, and total victory for Christ. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/325-second-coming/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faWsLJIh4_M Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=325-the-second-coming Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-major-events-of-the-bible/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/324-damascus-road/ Fri, 22 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66060 This lesson describes the dramatic salvation of Saul of Tarsus on the Damascus Road as a pivotal Bible event. Paul recounts (in Acts 22) his background as a zealous and highly trained Pharisee who persecuted Christians unto death, until a blinding heavenly light and the voice of the risen Jesus struck him down near Damascus, revealing Christ, humbling him, and commissioning him as the apostle to the Gentiles. This marks the monumental shift in God’s program from Israel under the law to the dispensation of grace, forming the Church (the Body of Christ) with a heavenly hope. Paul was saved by grace alone as the “chief of sinners,” sent to proclaim the gospel of grace to all nations. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/324-damascus-road/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nj_clHxBtek Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=324-damascus-road Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-major-events-of-the-bible/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/323-the-cross/ Thu, 21 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66062 With its opening illustration, this episode draws a parallel to the infinitely greater price the Son of God paid to rescue humanity from sin’s bondage by dying on the cross. Focusing on Matthew 27:45-54, it details the six hours of crucifixion: three hours of light followed by three hours of supernatural darkness, when God judged the world’s sins laid on Christ. At that moment, the temple veil tore from top to bottom, a great earthquake split rocks, and graves opened. After Christ’s resurrection, many saints rose and appeared in Jerusalem as proof of victory over death, showing the cross conquered sin, satisfied the law, and forever provides free access to God’s presence for every believer. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/323-the-cross/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6lnxq7W58U Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=323-the-cross Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-major-events-of-the-bible/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/322-red-sea/ Wed, 20 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66402 This episode explores God’s miraculous parting of the Red Sea, which was proof of His power, provision, and mercy in delivering Israel. After luring Pharaoh’s massive chariot army into pursuit by directing Israel to camp vulnerably against the sea, Moses reassures the terrified multitude to “stand still and see the salvation of the LORD.” The pillar of cloud moves behind them for protection, Moses stretches out his rod, a strong east wind divides the waters into towering walls on dry ground so Israel can cross safely all night, and then the waters return to drown Pharaoh’s entire army. This sequence symbolizes our salvation, where Christ parts death’s barrier, drowns our enemies (sin and Satan), and opens a path of dry ground for believers to march from bondage into victory and eternal life in Him. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/322-red-sea/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unjCxtwbdVE Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=322-red-sea Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-major-events-of-the-bible/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/321-call-of-abraham/ Tue, 19 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66407 This lesson presents Genesis 12 as a watershed moment in Scripture: after eleven chapters of God dealing with all mankind, the focus narrows to one man and his family as God calls Abram to leave his country, kindred, and father’s house for an unknown land, promising to make from him a great nation (Israel), give him a great name, bless those who bless him and curse those who curse him, and bless all families of the earth through his seed. Abraham obeys by faith, traveling 400–500 miles to Canaan, and God appears to him at Shechem, promising the land to his descendants, prompting Abraham to build altars at Shechem and Bethel—serving as the greatest biblical example of faith, contrasting Babel’s “let us” self-glory with God’s “I will” plan for Israel. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/321-call-of-abraham/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xnVrAP77U8 Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=321-the-call-of-abraham Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-major-events-of-the-bible/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/320-tower-of-babel/ Mon, 18 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66409 In this episode, the Tower of Babel is presented as the next major Bible event. After the Flood, Noah’s descendants settled in the plain of Shinar and united in one language to build a city and a towering ziggurat, defiantly refusing God’s command to scatter and fill the earth (Gen. 9:1) in a humanistic, self-glorifying act of pride and unbelief. God then came down, confounded their single language so they could no longer communicate, scattered them across the earth, and halted the tower—explaining the origin of the world’s approximately 7,000 languages and peoples, marking the failure of human government, and setting the stage for God’s call of Abraham to create one nation (Israel) that would bless all families of the earth. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/320-tower-of-babel/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ym72oj7_D5g Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=320-tower-of-babel Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-major-events-of-the-bible/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/319-the-flood/ Fri, 15 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66411 After contrasting Noah’s righteous, blameless life of faith and daily walk with God against a world “corrupt before God” and “filled with violence,” this lesson next details God’s command to construct a three-story, pitch-sealed ark. Noah and his family entered by faith, and God supernaturally gathered two of every land-dependent animal “kind” plus extras of the clean kinds, then sealed them all inside just before the fountains of the great deep burst and the windows of heaven opened, drowning every living thing outside while the ark safely floated for 150 days. The ark is presented as a picture of our salvation—planned from eternity past, entered by faith alone for deliverance from judgment, sealed by God for total security, and entered through a single door (Christ). https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/319-the-flood/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxlonwsYqhQ Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=319-the-flood Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-major-events-of-the-bible/ 1710 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/318-creation/ Thu, 14 May 2026 09:30:00 +0600 https://bereanbiblesociety.org/?post_type=tbg-episode&p=66413 This episode presents the biblical account of Creation from Genesis 1 as a literal, six-day series of supernatural miracles by the triune God. Beginning with the formation of time, space (heaven), and matter (earth) on day one, followed by light, the firmament, dry land and vegetation on days two and three, the sun, moon, and stars on day four, sea creatures and birds on day five, and land animals plus mankind on day six, each day demonstrates God’s power, order, and purposeful divisions. The message concludes that humanity’s purpose is found in knowing, worshipping, and submitting to the Creator, Whose completed work was declared “very good,” evoking wonder, praise, and faith, as echoed in the Books of Psalms and Isaiah. https://bereanbiblesociety.org/tbg-episode/318-creation/ Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l10ErfQIvlY Buy episode on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-single-episode-1-dvd-301-313/?attribute_pa_episode=318-creation Buy series on DVD: https://store.bereanbiblesociety.org/shop/dvd-transformed-by-grace-series-major-events-of-the-bible/ 1710
