BAL 2026, Ep08 – Ship of Gold, Divine Law, and Prophetic Hours

Join Pastor Doug Batchelor and Pastor Jëan Ross for an episode that opens with the tragic "Amazing Fact" of the SS Central America—the "Ship of Gold." In 1857, this vessel sank in a hurricane with 300,000 pounds of gold; many men perished because they refused to let go of their heavy treasure belts, which pulled them straight to the bottom of the Atlantic. The pastors use this powerful illustration to discuss the true value of God's Word, which the Psalmist declared is "more precious than fine gold." They explore the vital relationship between law and grace, explaining that while we are not saved by the law, the Ten Commandments remain a priceless guide for the Christian life.
