Did you know that at the end of your life you will be tested by God, and found either 'true' or 'false'? His consuming fire will reveal the true nature of your profession of faith and that of all of your works. Thankfully, God speaks to us through His Word to help prepare us for that final analysis, and thus it is the one voice that we can trust and depend on completely, the voice that has already proven itself tried and true throughout all ages. To help you on your journey towards eternity, twice a week Pastor Paul Cheng explains a few verses from the Bible, simply and powerfully.

episode The Character Of God (Exodus 22:16-20) cover

The Character Of God (Exodus 22:16-20)

Have you ignored the OT laws? Israel was to be a nation separated unto God, but the temptation of sin, and to sin, was far too near. In danger of being led astray by the depraved practises of the pagan nations, Israel needed guidance, and God provided. God gave His people specific laws, leaving no room for confusion about what He allows and what He despises. But how should we regard these laws today, are they as relevant to us as the New Testament’s teachings? Do the sins that the Israelites faced still tempt us today? In giving His people such extensive laws to abide by, God reveals man’s nature - one that is prone to sinning. But what about God’s nature? How can these laws be understood to disclose His standard & character? Join us in this study of the book of Exodus, as we learn how these passages are more than just rules, but revelations. 📄 Follow along with this sermon's transcript: https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/the-character-of-god [https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/the-character-of-god] 📍 Sermon Outline 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbDc24TOO3w&t=0s] Trailer 01:48 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbDc24TOO3w&t=108s] Introduction 04:11 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbDc24TOO3w&t=251s] I.

episode Are You Transformed By The Word? (James 1:26-27) cover

Are You Transformed By The Word? (James 1:26-27)

“Based on all the things I've done, am I not a spiritual person?” Though Christian lives cannot be void of works, works are not the starting point. In the conclusion of his first chapter, the Apostle James cautions against the self-deception of putting trust in acts that are just that—acts. How, then, should one ascertain true spirituality versus superficial, religious practices? It must start in the heart, and then extend outwards. The truth is, outward acts of religion are empty without inward transformation. But this inner working cannot go unevidenced. Instead, such a transformation always manifests in three critical areas: speech, love and morality. 📄 Follow along with this sermon's transcript: https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/are-you-transformed-by-the-word [https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/are-you-transformed-by-the-word] 📍 Sermon Outline 00:00 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6SytOeYvSc&t=0s] Trailer 01:15 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6SytOeYvSc&t=75s] Introduction 05:30 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6SytOeYvSc&t=330s] ARE YOU TRANSFORMED IN YOUR SPEECH? 20:29 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6SytOeYvSc&t=1229s] ARE YOU TRANSFORMED IN YOUR LOVE? 33:05 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6SytOeYvSc&t=1985s] ARE YOU TRANSFORMED IN YOUR MORALITY? 41:55 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6SytOeYvSc&t=2515s] Closing Prayer 45:30 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6SytOeYvSc&t=2730s] Reflection Questions 📺 Watch this sermon and others on YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@BethelBPC [https://www.youtube.com/@BethelBPC] Copyright © 2024, Bethel Bible-Presbyterian Church.

episode The Punishment Fits The Crime — an eye for an eye (Exodus 21:18-36) cover

The Punishment Fits The Crime — an eye for an eye (Exodus 21:18-36)

How can you forgive someone who has hurt you? While it may not be the obvious lesson to draw from a group of explicit Mosaic laws, we find that one of these sentences have been wildly misinterpreted (Exodus 21:23-25). Because of this, our Lord Jesus famously addressed this error in Matthew 5:38-39 by saying, “Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also". Was Jesus contradicting Moses? If not, how are we to make sense of both Moses’ law as well as Jesus’ statement? Sandwiched in the middle of this mini-series on the idea that God’s laws demand a punishment that fits each crime, driving us away from sin and evil, we find an equally glorious truth drawing us towards mercy and love. As usual, it is only by understanding both these Old and New Testament statements that we gain a fuller, richer picture of our relationship to God, and thus our relationships with each other. 💭 Consider this: How, despite His justice, has God shown you mercy? To whom, despite your own sense of justice, can you show mercy today? 📄 Follow along with this sermon's transcript: https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/the-punishment-fits-the-crime-an-eye-for-an-eye [https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/the-punishment-fits-the-crime-an-eye-for-an-eye] 📍 Sermon Outline 00:00 Trailer 02:39 Introduction 04:50 I.

episode The Power Of The Tongue [Part 1] (James 3:3-6) cover

The Power Of The Tongue [Part 1] (James 3:3-6)

Just how powerful is the human tongue? Although the tongue is small and seemingly harmless it can cause destruction akin to arson. What regrets have you had about the words which you have spoken? What have other people said to you that has most built up your life? Everyone says things they regret, either immediately or eventually. Sometimes these are small slips of the tongue, sometimes they’re life-altering sentences. Interestingly, the Apostle James knew this all too well. Referring to our speech as “the tongue”, he vividly describes its seemingly limitless destructive powers to scare and warn his readers against the power of the tongue. By placing special emphasis on this facet of human life, he answers questions such as: Just how dangerous can our words be? What makes our speech uniquely deadly? What are its effects, intentional or unintentional? 📄 Follow along with this sermon's transcript: https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/the-power-of-the-tongue [https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/the-power-of-the-tongue ] 📍 Sermon Outline 00:00 Trailer 01:21 Introduction 03:49 I.

episode The Punishment Deters The Crime — property laws (Exodus 22:1-15) cover

The Punishment Deters The Crime — property laws (Exodus 22:1-15)

What does the way that God cares for our property reveal about the way that He cares for us? How valuable would it be if you could read the original Israelite laws for yourself? What would they tell you about how the Israelites lived? What would it tell you about their God? Well, did you know that God wrote a set of laws to govern crimes relating to personal property and we have those laws preserved for us in the book of Exodus! In this sermon’s text we see the eternally almighty God stoop down to the level of limited, sometimes dishonest, often quarrelsome people. In the details of these laws, we discover a patient, caring, merciful God who’s special notice of His children and their belongings ought to draw us back to Him as that same cognisant heavenly Father today. Far from being a distant, overbearing tyrant, this text demonstrates quite the opposite to be true of our God. Come and see for yourself… 💭 Consider this: What does the way that God cares for our property reveal about the way that He cares for us? 📄 Follow along with this sermon's transcript: https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/the-punishment-deters-the-crime-property-laws [https://www.bethelbpc.com.au/sermon-database/the-punishment-deters-the-crime-property-laws] 📍 Sermon Outline 00:00 Trailer 01:24 Introduction 04:53 I.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
