Regathering Of Israel, Is 11:10-12
This is the fourth lesson in the series I’ve been teaching on Israel. The first lesson was on God’s Covenant with Abraham. The second was on Israel’s Land Grant. And the third was on Israel’s Government. Today, we’re going to study the regathering of Israel. Thus, this lesson has to do with the return of […]
Israel’s Government
Israel’s government. They are a kingdom to be ruled by a king. Initially, Israel was governed by the Lord, himself. God chose Moses to lead them out of Egypt, Acts 7:30-36. While in the wilderness, God gave them his commandments, Ex 19-20. Then in Num 11:16-17 the Lord gave Moses 70 men to help him […]
Israel’s Land Grant, Gen 13:15
Israel’s land grant is clearly recorded in the Bible. We’re going to study Israel’s land grant today. This will help us understand what belongs to Israel and when they can anticipate inhabiting their land. Israel’s original land grant is the land of Canaan. Gen 13:15, for all the land which thou seest, to thee will […]
God’s Covenant with Abraham, Gen 12:1-7
Today we are studying God’s covenant with Abraham. Under this covenant, Abraham was promised a blessing (Gen 12:1-3), a seed (Gen 12:7), a nation (Gen 12:2), and a land grant (Gen 12:7; 15:18-21). Furthermore, this covenant protected Abraham and his seed from those that would curse them (Gen 12:3). God’s covenant with Abraham was also […]
Full, Gen 6:11
There is a pattern in the Bible that sheds light on the future of nations in the world. God gives people and nations time to repent until their wickedness is full, and then he destroys them, when there is no more hope for their repentance. Notice: The world in Noah’s day. Gen 6:11 “The earth […]
Our Body is A Tabernacle, 2 Cor 5:1-4
Our body is a tabernacle. And our tabernacle is comparable to the tabernacle the Jews had in the wilderness. 2 Cor 5:1 “Our earthly house of this tabernacle”. As the tabernacle in the wilderness was earthly and temporary, and the one in heaven eternal, so our body is earthly and temporary, and our glorified body […]
Declaration of Truth, Lk 1:1-4
There are several ways that the truth of the words of God has been declared. The declaration of truth has been verbal, visible, written, and testified. Verbal declaration – someone heard the Lord speak. See Jn 1:18, 1 Jn 1:1-5, and 2 Pet 1:16-21. At Mt Sinai, the Jew’s heard God speak directly from the […]

Avoiding Anger
Avoiding Anger (Ecclesiastes 7:9) This lesson deals with the subject of anger. Everyone experiences anger the difference is how we handle anger. Even though most of the time anger does cause us to sin, anger itself is not sin. Note that God is angry with the wicked (Psalm 7:11), Jesus looked on the crowd with […]
Laboring for the Wind
Laboring for the Wind (Ecclesiastes 5:10-16) This lesson deals with the subject of riches and gives warnings to those that are pursuing after them. Paul gives us a similar warning in 1 Timothy 6:5-10. By using these two passage we will look at some of the dangers of riches and also learn a life lesson […]
