Rightly Dividing with Ron Anderson

SPEAK IT! Romans 4:17 Proverbs 18:21

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2244677/fan_mail/new] "There is a popular misuse of Romans 4:17 along with Proverbs 18:21 that confuses the sovereign creative power of God with a human confession, declaration, or proclamation. By taking these verses completely out of their context, many sincere and genuine believers are often taught to just “speak or claim or decree something into existence” a formula for personal blessing, gain, or prosperity. To properly and accurately understand these verses, we must study…  “that is rightly divide”    them within the context of the entire passage they are found in…

VISION? HABAKKUK 2:2 - 3

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2244677/fan_mail/new] “Vision”… just mention the word “Vision” and it stirs up a myriad of very impassioned opinions. It is a word that has varied meanings and inferences depending on what circle of faith you are in. My intent in this episode is to specifically address the misuse of Habakkuk 2:2 when it is used as an example, pattern, or instruction for Christians to “write down their vision” as an expression of empowered faith and that because you have “written it down” God is somehow obligated to fulfill your vision, dreams, and desires! In this episode we are going to take a brief look at Habakkuk, particularly chapter 2 and verses 2 through 4.

RESIST the DEVIL! James :7

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2244677/fan_mail/new] Resist the Devil and he will flee from you is yet another phrase that is so often isolated and lifted out of its context and misunderstood and misapplied.   Resist the devil and he will flee from you is actually a partial phrase in a paragraph where we find 9 specific and related instructions for believers… this episode…  Resist the devil and he will flee from you…      in it’s biblical context!

STUMBLING BLOCK?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2244677/fan_mail/new] Along with great freedom in Christ there comes great responsibility in our relationship with other believer’s, particularly those who are new believer’s. There is to be a kind and gracious consideration of those who do not yet fully understand that in Christ, believers are liberated from rules, regulations, and requirements that are often perceived as necessary for salvation… great care is to be taken so that “liberty” does not become a stumbling block in another believer’s faith walk. In this episode we take a look at Romans 14 and I Corinthians 8 and the use, meaning, and implications of “do not put a stumbling block in your brothers way”
