The episode today contains a portion of our discussion. Brother Lesley was gracious enough to allow me to share this discussion here with the Plain Bible Teaching audience.Continue Reading

This week we’re talking about the future of religion in America. According to a recent study by the Pew Research Center, those who profess to be Christians may be in the minority in fifty years. I talked about this in an episode a few months ago, but this week I have Kristofer Gardana with me so we can discuss the challenges and potential opportunities that Christians could encounter in the future if these projections become a reality.Continue Reading

This week we’re talking about the death of Pope Benedict XVI. The former pope passed away on December 31st. He resigned in 2013 – the first pope to do so since the early 15th century. Of course, many people are taking this time to remember his life and the contributions he made to the Catholic Church and the world in general. But we want to take the opportunity to discuss, not Pope Benedict XVI, but the whole concept of the “pope” and what the Bible says about that.Continue Reading

This week we’re talking about the lottery. The Mega Millions jackpot, at the time of this recording, is at $1.35 billion, and it will go even higher if there is no winner after the drawing this Friday. When the jackpot gets insanely high like this, many people buy lottery tickets who would not ordinarily do so. For many others, buying lottery tickets is a way of life – hoping to pick the lucky numbers that will instantly transform their life. Is this harmless fun, or is it wrong and something to be avoided? Let’s consider some things that the Bible has to say to help us answer that question.Continue Reading

With the start of the new year, we tend to look ahead over the next twelve months to see what we can improve, how we might change, and what goals we want to hit. In the episode last week I talked about some areas of focus that we can use to make the most of our time in the new year. However, when we talk about goals, resolutions, etc., we tend to think of possibilities and opportunities for something good. Today, we want to look at some challenges that could be facing Christians and churches in the new year. The more we are aware of these potential challenges, the better we will be able to prepare.Continue Reading

This week we’re talking about four areas of focus for the new year. Obviously, if we need to change our focus or make resolutions, we can do this ANY time. But the start of a new year can provide us with an extra bit of motivation to reset our priorities. These four areas are what I have been working on this year and will continue to do so in the new year. All of these are rooted in Scripture, so I’m sharing them here in hopes that you can find some way to apply these principles to your life moving forward.Continue Reading
What does “propitiation” mean? How is “justification” connected to salvation? What does “sanctification” look like in our day-to-day lives? The Bible uses some powerful words to describe God’s plan to save mankind. However, these words are not always easy to understand, especially when they are not part of our everyday vocabulary. This book explores key Bible terms that unlock the message of the gospel.
Big Words in the Bible examines five important words – Propitiation, Reconciliation, Sanctification, Justification, and Resurrection – using plain language to see how the Scriptures describe these concepts and how the apostle Paul employs them in his letter to the Romans. This book also contains an appendix with eleven additional articles to explore these topics further.
Whether you are new to the Bible and want to grow in your understanding or want a simple way to explain these core gospel doctrines to others, this book will be helpful. With a focus on the Scriptures, Big Words in the Bible helps break down these fundamental topics to shed light on the life-changing message of the gospel and the salvation found in it.
