Easter in Acts 12:4 – Dr Sam Gipp
Pascha Translated Easter The best shot that the men opposed to the King James Bible have to attack the Bible is the word Easter in Acts 12:4. This word is translated from the Greek word “pascha”. 28 times in the King James Bible the translators translated this word “passover”. But this one time, the King […]
Originals Versus Translations – Dr Gipp
Originals Versus Translations This sermon by Dr Gipp is a discussion of the originals versus translations of the Bible. The first question you should ask when talking with a “scholar” about this topic is “Do you accept the Bible as your final authority in all matters of faith and practice”? If he says “yes” he […]
The King’s Own Copy, Deut 17:18-20
The King’s Own Copy of the Law The Lord instructed Moses, in Deut 17:14-20, that when a king sat on the throne of his kingdom he was to write a copy of the law in a book. It was to be the king’s own copy. Specifically, he was to copy the law that was before […]
Fulfilled Prophecy – Dr. Sam Gipp
What Makes the Bible Special? Fulfilled prophecy is what makes the Bible special. The Bible is the only only book that comes from outside of our dying solar system. When you open it up you are getting something from outside of our closed solar system. Prophecy is supernatural. A preacher said, “Prophecy is history written […]
The Vine Tree, Ezek 15:1-8
The prophecy of the vine tree in Ezek 15:1-8 foretells the destruction of Jerusalem by fire. The Vine Tree Typifies Israel The prophecy begins in v.2 with a comparison of the value of wood from the vine tree to the other trees in the forest. Israel is like the vine tree in this prophecy. […]
Wise Hearted, 1 Ki 3:5-12
In 1 Ki 3:5-12, Solomon asked the Lord for understanding and the Lord gave him a wise and an understanding heart. The Lord can do this because “He is wise in heart”, Job 9:4. Obviously, Solomon was wise hearted to begin with, to think to ask for understanding. Wisdom was important to Solomon. Like […]
Brass For Gold, 1 Ki 14:21-28
Brass For Gold The sermon text is 1 Ki 14:21-28. Our particular interest is in v.25-28, where Rehoboam exchanged brass for gold when he replaced the shields Shishak, king of Egypt, took. When Solomon reigned, he built high places for the gods of the nations around Israel. When his son, Rehoboam, succeeded him, “Judah did […]
The Land Sinneth, Ezek 14:12-23
The Land Sinneth In Ezek 14:13, the Lord said, “when the land sinneth against me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it”. The phrase, the land sinneth, is an unusual expression. However, we can find it in Deut 24:4, concerning a man who marries a woman he divorced. He causes […]
The Purpose of Affliction, Ps 119:67
The Purpose of Affliction The Psalmist who wrote Ps 119 said, “Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word”. In v.71 he wrote, “It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes”. One purpose of affliction is to get you right with […]
