Are there instructions in the Scriptures to keep the Sabbath Day holy that apply today?  There are certainly many who think so.  We are going to consider the Scriptures and the fact that there are NOT true Sabbath keepers today.

Are Christians expected to obey civil governments when such governments are ungodly?  If so, why?  This study will cover these things through the Scriptures.

Cookies!  Yum!  Most people enjoy sweets, like cookies, from time to time.  This time of year in the USA this is especially true.  There are some spiritual lessons to consider as we think about cookies.  Listen in to think about sweets and some applicable lessons.

In this lesson, we will be studying about abstaining from fleshly lusts while living as strangers and pilgrims in this present world.  In part, this has to do with being examined by men (I Peter 2:13-16).  If/when charges are brought against the faithful, will the conduct of the saint charged stand above the accusations.

Sadly, there are undeniable racial divisions amongst those professing to be Christians.  Bill and Brian talk about that and related matters from the Scriptures.

Gentiles, who were not the people of God under the Law of Moses, are now through the promises made long ago.  Therefore, not being God’s people in the past; they [we] can now be through God’s mercy.  That which was once only descriptive of Israel now pertains to all who choose to be God’s people!

Faithful Christians now how important it is to be busy in the Lord’s work and handling the responsibilities we have towards our families, etc.  What is sometimes lost in all of that is that God also expects His people to enjoy life in this world as much as is lawful and possible.  If you are always busy in spiritual things, consider this lesson as a challenge to include time to enjoy life in this world as a good thing as well.

Jesus was a stumbling block to the children of Israel.  How?  What did He do for such to occur?  What does that mean?  What prophesy foretold of this?  What does it mean for the Gentiles Peter is writing to and for us today?  These things and more are discussed in this lesson.

With some balance, this lesson is intended to get you to put your guard up against elevating Gospel preachers to a point that puts you in danger.  The Scriptures give us many warnings.  Will you take heed to them?

This lesson is going to cover that the saints Peter addressed came to the rejected Christ to be His spiritual house.
