Let God Speak

All of us have an influence on others, whether we realise it or not. Our words either lift others up or tear them down.     No one is neutral. The more prominent your life, the more widespread your influence. Today’s bible study will uncover how the stubbornness of one man, and the faithfulness of another, affected the lives of thousands. Hosted by: Pr Mike Browning Guests: Gayl Fong & Matthew...

The confrontation between Moses and Pharaoh to free the Israelites from slavery was dramatic, and deadly – evident from the ten plagues inflicted on Egypt. But there was much more to it: God wanted to free Pharaoh and the Egyptians from their yoke of slavery to idolatry. This showdown with life and death consequences is symbolic of the great controversy between Christ and Satan. Today’s study will...

Many believers think following God is a ticket to uninterrupted happiness, prosperity, and success. Are they right? Is following God a ticket for trouble free living? Today’s lesson will discuss the experience of Moses after he made the decision to follow God’s calling.

Not everyone believes in God. Some find it difficult to believe in a benevolent, personal, supreme being who superintends over a world full of oppression, suffering, and death. How does the Bible help us reconcile this conundrum? The life of Moses, and his supernatural encounter with an incombustible shrub, give us insights into the existence of a loving God who intervenes to relieve human sufferi...

Today begins a new series on the second book in the Bible: Exodus. Israel’s departure from Egypt, the miraculous crossing of the Red Sea, and the giving of the 10 commandments — all these and more tell us of a loving God who would later give His Son to die for the sins of the world. Our plan is to search the book of Exodus to better understand what God is like: a God of love, justice, patience, fr...

There are two important truths that we must understand about God’s judgment in the end times: Firstly, everyone will be informed and warned. No one can claim they did not know. Secondly, there will come a time when it will be too late to repent. There are three stories from the Old Testament that are ‘Images of The End’ and illustrate these two truths. Today’s lesson will explore the special relev...

A precursor is something that signals the approach of something or someone. The Bible details two precursors for the Last Days, both of which are linked to Revelation 13. The first directly relates to the events described in Revelation 13, while the second reveals the conditions Christians will face in the last days. Join us as we discuss these two precursors and uncover the significance they hold...

Ruth is loved by many, a widow and a foreigner, yet she found love in Boaz and became one of Jesus Christ’s ancestors. Esther, a queen who risked her own life to save her people. Not only are these beautiful stories from the Old Testament. They also teach us prophetic lessons here in the 21st century. Today’s study will uncover these lessons. Hosted by: Pr Clive Nash Guests: Pr John Kosmeier &...

The Biblical Flood and the Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah are stories from the Old Testament that occurred thousands of years ago. Are they just interesting historical accounts, or is there something much more to them? Today’s study will look into these two stories and uncover what lessons we can learn from them in the 21st century. Hosted by: Kaysie Vokurka Guests: Gayl Fong & Rod Butler D...

Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, wrote “That which has been is what will be, that which is done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:9). The range of emotions that we humans experience today was also experienced by our ancestors. The book of Psalms has counsel, comfort, relevance, and hope for us. It even contains symbols and images of last day event...

Whether it’s the nation of Israel or individual believers scattered throughout the earth, God has given the same assignment to His people throughout all history. To be a light to the nations. In today’s study we will look for this assignment within the Psalms and Revelation.

The first words in the Bible are “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth”. There is no ambiguity of God’s power, or our origin in this statement. God is the King of kings and rules the universe from His throne in heaven, yet God in His love for humanity wanted to dwell among His people on Earth. In today’s study we will glimpse the majesty of God’s throne room in heaven. This scene...

Today’s study will try and make sense of a dominant biblical theme: sacrifice. Animal sacrifices get a mention right from the start of history. God sacrificed an animal to make clothing for Adam and Eve after they’d sinned. John the Baptist declared Jesus to be the ultimate sacrifice: the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. And the last book of the Bible over and over again paints Jes...

Sir Winston Churchill knew first-hand about conflict between nations. He said “The Story of the human race is war. Except for brief and precarious interludes, there has never been peace in the world.”  Is he right? If so, why? Today’s discussion will continue looking at the problems of human government in comparison to God’s governance. Join us as we discuss how this subject is powerfully covered...

When God created the Earth, it was His plan for people to live in happiness and love. Instead of fulfilling God’s plan, people fell into the temptation of choosing their own path. Today’s study will examine how nations rejected God and went their own way. Join us as we discuss the outcome of this desire for self-government without God. Hosted by: Pr Mike Browning Guests: Cynthia Mafunga & Pr J...

God designed marriage to be a beautiful experience, something that brings happiness and security so families can thrive. Despite marriage not always matching God ideal, He still uses marriage as a beautiful illustration of His love for His people. Today’s study will look at this illustration.

Many believe that Revelation, the last book of the Bible, is too mysterious and cannot be understood. Others believe it needs to be read and interpreted literally, but a third group of people view Revelation like the rest of the Bible; part of God’s love letter to the world with the same central objective of revealing Jesus. Today’s study will reveal an interpretation the Book of Revelation that s...

Jesus not only commanded us to “search the Scriptures” (John 5:39), He also asked us “How do you read the Scriptures?” (Luke 10:26). This second question is important because a correct method of Bible interpretation will give the right answers to life’s important questions. Today’s study is the first in a new series of studies entitled “illusions, images & symbols: How to study Bible Prophecy”...

Today’s discussion will bring to a close our current series on “the God of love and justice”. Our topic for today is “Love is the fulfilment of the law.” Romans 13:8 reminds us that “he who loves another has fulfilled the law.” Love and law go together. Law is not just a series of commands. God’s law is an expression of His character of love. Stay with us as we dig into this fascinating topic. Hos...

We all have a deep sense of justice. Our God loves justice! In God’s eyes love and justice go together. Today’s study will show us how God’s love of justice is the foundation of our hope for a sin-free eternity.   Hosted by: Pr Mike Browning Guests: Rod Butler & Gayl Fong   Download the study notes at this link: https://www.3abnaustralia.org.au/resources/downloads/lgs-notes/   Check out our ot...

Sidney Holmes, a 57 year old man from Florida in the United States, was convicted to 400 years in prison for armed robbery. After serving more than 34 years in prison as a convicted felon, he was released because it turned out he didn’t do what he was accused, convicted and sentenced for. Holmes said he never lost hope and always knew the day of his freedom would come. For every wrongful convictio...

Whether we like it or not, whether we believe it or not, we are all participants in a spiritual war between two sides. There is no middle ground in this spiritual war. There is no fence to sit on. Whether we choose to disengage from it, or believe it is all nonsense, our decision still marks our allegiance to one of the sides in that war. Join us today as we examine the rules of engagement in this...

The whole universe is engaged in a great conflict between God and the fallen angel, Lucifer. This conflict is central to understanding the bible’s worldview. Today’s study will explore the origin and nature of this conflict, exposing the role Jesus plays in the final defeat of evil and the restoration of our world.

This study focuses on our free will in the context of divine love. It will also look into divine providence: Does the providence of God overrule our will? Does God predestine some people to be saved and others to be lost? You might like to have your Bible handy as we Let God Speak today.

Theodicy is a subject concerned with the question: how can God be just when evil is present in the world? Rather than justifying evil (as evil can never be justified), Theodicy actually justifies God. Let’s face it, when bad things happen and we ask the question: “Why did He allow this to happen?” God is the one under the microscope. Today’s study will open God’s word and look into these difficult...
