Five Minute Bible Study Podcast

Chance Dyer rejoins the podcast after a long drought. We talk about exercising our bodies and how this practice teaches us so much about spiritual discipline as Paul alludes to several places in scripture (1 Tim. 4:7-8). And maybe you haven't considered how many times Paul alludes to athletics and exercise in his epistles. In this PART 1, we go through all the passages that discuss or allude p...

3:17- The Main Dish- In this episode I tell the story of Philip preaching Christ to the city of Samaria, the conversion of a magician of dark arts (Simon the Sorcerer), and the interesting thing that happened afterward. The Bible says, "They had only been baptized," indicating that they had not yet received the gift of the Holy Spirit at that point. This is a very helpful chapter to unders...

In this episode I talk about six common sense rules for interpreting figurative language in scripture.

False Assumptions Grace as a Free Gift Faith as Faithfulness Declared Righteousness Self-Righteousness Does the system...

In Matthew 5:27-28 there is a famous statement of Jesus which reads,   “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’    But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart." As a result of Jesus' wording in this passage and other scriptures about divorce being scriptural on the grounds of &...
