Bad things happen as a result of sin and as a result of people LACKING KNOWLEDGE. People don't know what to pray for because they don't know how to pray. They do not know how to back up their prayers with Scripture because they don't know Scripture! They don't know the power of God's Word because they do not read it. They haven't been taught. Hosea 4:6 says, "My people perish because of a lack of knowledge." The reason terrible things are allowed to happen in our lives is because we don't know how to take up our shield of faith and stop them from happening. God GAVE you His Word. He TOLD YOU to arm yourself with it DAILY. It's up to us whether or not we decide to do that. Do it! It's time to KNOW YOUR SCRIPTURE!

In today's episode, we talk about what it means to truly fear the Lord and not man. Part of fearing the Lord is listening to Scripture when it corrects, rebukes, and trains us. People have a hard time hearing the truth in church today, and pastors have a hard time preaching it. Church is meant for us as believers to spur one another up and encourage one other towards love and good deeds, as Hebrews 10:24-25 says. If you aren't constantly examining yourself and asking yourself and God if there's anything in your life that needs changing, you just aren't doing it right. Meet with the Lord and meet with fellow believers often so you can make sure your walk is as blameless as possible during your time here on this earth.

I had a great time sitting down with my good friend, Matthew Logan, and discussing some of his views as a Calvinist. Calvinism is the Protestant theological system of John Calvin and his successors, which develops Luther's doctrine of justification by faith alone and emphasizes the grace of God and the doctrine of predestination. In today's episode, we talk about predestination, free will, God's elect, women preachers, and more. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!

It can be very easy for us to come up with our own conclusion when it comes to what's going on this world today, but the Bible has all of the answers. If we would stop paying attention to what the world has to say, what "influencers" have to say, and what people in general have to say, and we just look into the Word, we can see that God has it all laid out for us. Israel is mentioned throughout the entire Bible, Old and New Testament. We see Israel at the beginning of the Bible, and we see it at the end. Israel will be here for a long time, it has to be. It's in the Word. Anyone wishing for Israel's downfall has clearly not read the Bible, and yet I see many people, even Christians, calling for Israel to fail. Whether you like it or not, Israel will remain until the end. In today's episode, we talk about why. Enjoy!

When Simon Peter was first called by Jesus, he was out fishing on the Sea of Galilee. Jesus performed an amazing miracle and then called Peter to follow Him and become a "fisher of men". Peter thought he was unworthy to follow Jesus, and yet Jesus chose him anyways, specifically, for a divine purpose. 3 years after this first encounter, and after the Resurrection, Jesus appears to Peter and the disciples again on the Sea of Galilee and performs the EXACT SAME MIRACLE. What is the significance of this? Tune in to find out!

In last week's episode, we talked about the indwelling of the Holy Spirit within all of us upon salvation. In today's episode, we go further into the gifts in which we can receive through the power of the Holy Spirit in us. Those gifts include prophecy, preaching, faith, wisdom, speaking in tongues, interpretation, and more. We are to use these gifts that God has given us in order to further advance His Kingdom here on earth. Enjoy this episode!

In this episode of Bible Time with Charlie, we do a deep dive into the Holy Spirit. What is the Holy Spirit? How did it operate in the Old Testament compared to the New Testament? Why did the Holy Spirit only "rest upon" certain people in the Old Testament but not "fill them" like it fills us today? Is there any instance of the Holy Spirit actually "filling" someone in the Old Testament? What did that look like? What about praying in tongues? Is it biblical? How about women preachers?

This is a longer episode, and I hope it answers all of your questions. Stay tuned for part 2 of this Holy Spirit Study. Enjoy!

Many people claim to be Christian, and yet live as though God doesn't even exist. We must no longer live this way, folks. If we say we believe in God and if we call Jesus our Lord, we must live life according to His Word. God will not be mocked. Begin to sow seeds to please not the flesh, but the Spirit. In today's episode, we talk about ways in which we can live a life that is pleasing to God and not ourselves or to the world. It is worth it to live a life that is pleasing to God!

In today's episode, we dive into John chapter 4, which talks about Jesus being the living water. If we truly want to live life to the full, we must partake in this living water. Jesus is the Word, and in order to partake in this "living water" daily, it's so important to seek Jesus through His Word. It's the greatest way to fill ourselves up when we are feeling empty. We can try to live life by drinking the water that the world gives us, and it may lead to momentary pleasures, but in the end, it leads to destruction. Jesus is the "living water" that gives us life -- life that lasts forever.
