The Bible Standard - Discover the Truth. (By Christadelphianvideo.org)

Most of us have done something that we do not want others to know about. Little children may sneak that cookie before dinner, older children may accidentally break something while roughhousing and hide the evidence, and most adults have done certain things they hope do not become public knowledge. After a misdeed, peace of mind is disrupted. The thief and the murderer live in fear of being found o...

We humans have a dreadful problem with death due to sin. God provided a man to represent us. He did not sin and so God raised him from death to immortal life. His death was a unique sacrifice and the basis of God forgiving our sins and redeeming us from death, if we do what God requires of us.

Britain has left the European Union, bringing the curtain down on 47 years of membership. The Christadelphian community has for decades shown through the scriptures that the UK must be separate to the European block of nations at the time of the final conflict at the return of Christ. These two talks recap why we could confidently claim this and now the faith of many faithful Christadelphians has...

As a community we, the Christadelphians, believe that the Scriptures are "God breathed" that they are a record of His words.  This belief is being challenged again in our days.  The first of these studies will address the issue: is the Bible the word of God or does it contain the words of man? The second study will consider some of the "difficuties" which critics of the Bible have raised...

“BUT THE LORD HARDENED PHARAOH’S HEART”        Feb 4 We thought about this for some time. How do we understand the references in today’s ch. 10 of Exodus to the LORD hardening Pharaoh’s heart.  (v.1,10,27)   Can God blame man for what God does – if that is the way to understand this?  Notice how Moses conveys the message of the LORD (i.e. Yahw...

“SUBJECT TO THE GOVERNING AUTHORITIES”  Feb 3 The first part of our reading today, Ch. 13 of Romans, needs to be understood in the context of the whole Bible.  Paul tells his readers, “Let every person be subject to the governing authorities … those that exist have been instituted by God .  Whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed … for rulers are not a terror...

"AS A LIVING SACRIFICE"  Feb. 2 In Genesis we are reading of Moses’ encounters with Pharaoh and today we saw Moses’ demand “We must go three days journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the LORD our God as he tells us” [Ch.8 v.27] Over the next few days we will read of the drama of the plagues: we pondered the example of Pharaoh’s tactic of first agreeing and then denying Moses’ requests...

"I APPEARED ... AS GOD ALMIGHTY"  Feb. 1 Our reading in Exodus ch. 6 today presents us with a puzzle.  “God spoke to Moses and said to him, ‘I am the LORD.   I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty ( Heb : El Shaddai ) but by my name the LORD ( Heb : Yahweh ) I did not make myself known to them .” [v.2,3] Yet we can see that the Hebrew word Yahweh occurs in the...

"THAT MY NAME MIGHT BE PROCLAIMED"  Jan 31 Our readings today - in Exodus and Romans tie in together in their reference to the exaltation of Moses, now ready, in God’s sight, to serve him after 40 years of preparation “in the land of Midian.” Moses is now a meek and humble man (Numbers 12 v.3) – God can now use him. Paul’s points in our Roman’s chapter (9) are illuminating: first, he states h...

"WAITS WITH EAGER LONGING ..."  Jan 30 Paul’s letter to the Romans contains some of the most meaningful and thought provoking words in the Bible.  It is impossible to read it and take all the points into our minds until we have read it meditatively many times over, making our own notes. More than any other book in the Bible, it calls for diligent and reflective study and the following up...

"YOU ALSO MUST CONSIDER YOURSELVES DEAD ..."   Jan 29 There are some days when all the readings provoke thoughts that are very meaningful and personal. In Genesis we have the words of Joseph to his brothers after their father died. The brothers are fearful that Joseph, in his position of great power in the land, will now take vengeance on them for the time they threw him into a pit, igno...

"BY THE LAW OF FAITH"  Jan. 28 Much of Paul’s reasoning as he writes to the Romans is quite profound: it needs careful thought for us to get our minds around some of the points he is making. In chapter 3 he is setting out the parallel principles (and how they converge) for the Jews who observe the law in the right spirit - and are “right” in the eyes of God and what he says of   “ t...

You should think about it because Jesus himself was baptised by his cousin John the Baptist.  Matthew ch 3 ver 13-17. Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him.  And John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and are You coming to me?”

Britain in Bible Prophecy Study 1 'The King of the South' REMASTERED - Christadelphian bible study about the role of Britain in Bible prophecy. This first of three studies looks at the influence of the English Bible and the role of the British in pushing back the Ottoman Empire to help the Jews back to their land. Given for a Christadelphian audience in Nottingham in 2012 by Matt Davies. The great...

This non-Biblical doctrine is explained from its beginnings. Developed as a Jesuit theory to answer the reformers’ identification of the Roman Catholic Church as the antichrist, this teaching has now been adopted by many modern churches. Many aspects of this teaching deny Bible fundamental doctrine. What will happen for believers when Jesus Christ returns to the Earth? Some Christians expect to be...

An in-depth consideration of the character Eli

Description: The views of Humanism are shown to contradict the life-giving hope and principles of the Bible. The various principles are contrasted demonstrating that God’s principles express the absolute truth.

"THAT WE MAY BE MUTUALLY ENCOURAGED"  Jan 27 It has been well said that ‘no one lives in a vacuum’ – we all interact with others and have some influence on each other. Most of us live in a close community of fellow believers at least one day each week, may we see this as essential. This is good – this is wonderful.  The only time it is not so is when there is discord for some reason – an...

"GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH"  Jan 26 Just as parts of the Psalms, such as 22 v.1 and 16 v,10,11 foreshadowed events and sayings in the mortal life of our Lord, so Psalms 46 and 47 we read today can be seen as portraying the awesome events at and after the time of his second coming. The overview of those events which these Psalms provide, show how vital it will be for us to possess and “ t...

"YOU ARE THE MOST HANDSOME ..."  Jan 25 After reading Psalm 45 we meditated on what makes a person handsome. As the Psalm proceeds it becomes evident that several verses are prophetical of our Lord.  Verses 6 & 7 are quoted in Hebrews 1 v.8,9.  In the Psalm they read, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever: the sceptre of your kingdom is a sceptre of uprightness; you have love...

"UNTIL THAT DAY WHEN ..."  Jan. 24 Our Matthew reading (ch. 26) recounts the agonies of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane and his prayers.  “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless not as I will, but as you will.” [v.39]. Jesus made his “will” conform to his Father’s will.  And what of our “will”? Peter was to later write of how Christ, in his commitmen...

"YOU KNOW NEITHER THE DAY, NOR THE HOUR"  Jan 23 Today we have 3 parables in our chapter (25) in Matthew which all convey fundamentally the same lesson. The fact that there are three shows how extremely important the message is. Those who read the Bible regularly will know them well; we must beware of knowing them too well, lest the message loses its power to stir our conscience. The first on...
