A @Christadelphians Video: # Summary This PRESENTATION explores the significance of Egypt in the Bible, highlighting its geographical location, cultural influence, and spiritual symbolism.

The...

How many can speak with confidence these days? Certainly the Politicians can’t!  Although they often try to sound that way. We read the last chapter of Hebrews today and Paul is emphasising to them the need to be positive in their attitude to the spiritual aspects of life. His first 4 words are, “Let brotherly love continue”  That surely includes sisterly love too!  It means love in a practical se...

A @Christadelphians Video: Description: “Satan” is a Bible word which is commonly much misunderstood. Here, the use of this Hebrew word in both Old and New Testaments is briefly examined to show that it always denotes an enemy, opponent or adversary but in many different contexts. The Bible does not support its use as the name of a personal diabolical spirit being.

It highlights the symbolic significance of blood in scripture, illustrating that it represents life and the means of atonement. The speaker underscores that true cleansing comes not from physi...

Hebrews ch, 12 provides a sequel to the challenging 11th chapter on faith which provoked our thoughts yesterday.  It starts, “Therefore since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely and let us run with endurance ….”  The cloud of witnesses are those who were named as men and women of faith in chapter 11.  None were per...

# Summary The PRESENTATION by Pete Owen discusses the biblical requirements for salvation, focusing on the necessity of belief and baptism as outlined in the Gospel of Mark. It emphasizes that baptism is not a mere sprinkling of water on infants, but a conscious act requiring cognitive ability to believe, typically associated with individuals of a certain age. Owen explains the significance of the...

A @Christadelphians Video: Superstition on this subject dictates that Christ pre-existed before his birth, the Bible, however, informs us quite concisely of his lineage, as a promised son prophesied of throughout the old testament. This false doctrine is strongly linked to that of the trinity, despite numerous verses opposing this view, for example, the fact that Jesus constantly prayed to his fat...

Is there anyone who thinks they do not need anything?  With Christmas in 3 weeks’ time, the younger one’s especially are thinking of the things they need and that it would be good to receive!   Our readings today in Hebrews say, “ For you have need of  endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.” [10 v.36]  Are you enduring?        We live in a world, at...

God ashamed!! What is this verse saying?  What is it about? Today’s reading in Hebrews is that well known chapter 11 on FAITH.  We should all be familiar with the words, that “faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” [v.1]  What are the things we are convinced about – things that give reality to our future expectations – going far beyond the things we hope to...

Today we started reading the book of Job, this is one of the most challenging books of the Bible for us to understand.  Today’s chapters are the only ones in which the word satan occurs and the ESV Bible we use has a footnote that in the Hebrew this word means “the adversary” and one can find many verses in the Old Testament where it is translated that way. ( For eg. 1 Sam.29 v.4; 2 Sam. 19 v.22;...

Jesus spoke of “the sign of the prophet Jonah”  [Matt. 12 v.39-40] as being a sign of great significance. Jonah came forth alive from “the belly of the great fish”.  [Jonah 1 v.17], We believe it was a special fish, one of a kind, not a sort of whale.  The text says, “the LORD appointed a great fish to swallow up Jonah” .  We conclude that ”the great fish” was a special creature God brought into b...

In our readings in Hebrews Paul is telling his fellow Jews about Jesus, that he is their one and only high priest.  Priests had held important posts, playing a significant role in the life of Israel and had done so since the time of Moses, even when they were in captivity.  All this was to be destroyed for  their nation and its temple were about to cease. Paul’s message was, “since then we have a...

Today we began reading the letter the Hebrews.  Many of its verses are full of meaning!  It is important to grasp the flow of reasoning – and not to take one phrase or sentence out of its context.  The writer was most probably Paul; but since it is written primarily for the Jews – and he had fallen out of favour with many of them because he worked among the Gentiles and was converting so many, but...
