Bible Commentary

After the Rapture, the opportunity to live in heaven will be over. Those left behind may be thirsty for a comprehensive book that helps guide them through the Tribulation and into the kingdom on earth so they may have eternal life.

This book teaches how to apply “rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). Reading this book will also profit the body of Christ and give us a greater appreciation of God’s prophecy and of the mystery ...

Observation of true relevancy in life brings one to fear God and keep his commandments.

It can be argued that no book of the Bible has had a greater effect on Christianity than the book of Romans. Martin Luther described it as "the most important piece in the New Testament," and wrote; "It is well worth a Christian's while not only to memorize it word for word but also to occupy himself with it daily, as though it were the daily bread of the soul." In this classic commentary by Dr. Warren Wiersbe, you can refresh your own understanding of this seminal work, Paul's masterpiece letter to the church in Rome.

The Book of Exodus is the bedrock of God's plan of redemption and is seen as a "type" of the early church. It is also an adventure of discovery, since the dramatic narrative is laced with numerous hidden messages in the form of microcodes and macrocodes, each anticipating the New Testament climax.

The book of Jeremiah, like all other Old Testament books, is a mystery that God intends for us to solve. Judah has fallen in sin. God sends the army from the North (Babylon) to destroy them for their sins. Judah goes into captivity for seventy years. Eventually, God punishes Babylon and sends Zerubbabel and Ezra to guide his people back to Jerusalem. There is more to this story that meets the immediate eye. Surface lessons exist, no doubt, but there is a bigger picture that involves the gospel of Jesus Christ (truth) (Colossians 2:16-17 and Hebrews 8:1-5).

The Bible is the world’s most influential book, but do we really know what it says? Every day across social media and in homes, businesses, and public spaces, people try to cut debate short by claiming that "the Bible says so!" However, they commonly disagree about what it actually does and doesn't say, particularly when it comes to socially significant issues. For instance, does the Bible say we should be on the lookout for an antichrist associated with the number 666? Does it say women shouldn’t wear revealing clothing? Does it say it’s okay to hit your kids?

This letter is one of the two greatest theological treatises of the New Testament. It is the ''Leviticus'' of the New Testament, detailing how the Lord Jesus Christ is both the fulfillment and the successor to all that had gone on before. This study will contrast conditional promises of the past with unconditional promises of the New Covenant: exchanging the shadows for substance. The Calvinist and Arminian viewpoints will be explored.

Satan wants there to be cliques, factions, and denominations, but God wants us to have unity (1 Corinthians 1:10; Ephesians 4:1-6). Satan knows the strategy of divide and conquer. This problem occurs when members of the body of Christ do not follow Paul to follow the risen Lord Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 11:1). God had some hidden wisdom and power in the cross that He kept secret from Satan and mankind until He saved Paul. Our ministry is not about us, but about what Christ accomplished by His death on the cross for our sins and resurrection. Our goal is to save the lost and share the ...
