In His Grip

The book of Revelation is an enigmatic book of the Bible for many people. It is filled with end-time prophecy cloaked in symbolism and allusions.  Many Christians find it hard to understand and avoid studying it altogether. It’s beauty, supreme importance, and distinctive relevance is sadly missed by many.  Come journey with Dr. Betters as he builds the context of this amazing book from the prophecies of the Old Testament along with the major themes of the Bible to unveil the mysteries and reveal the culmination of God’s redemptive plan.  You just may be tempted to think of Revelation as a book of new beginnings as much as one of end times.

Paul and Jill Miller welcomed their sixth child, daughter Kim, into their home in 1982. It became apparent at a young age that Kim was behind in her developmental milestones. Kim was also non verbal. Kim was diagnosed as having autism, a diagnosis that was just beginning to be recognized by doctors. Kim’s diagnosis not only created enormous stress on their family, but also isolated Jill as she learned how to parent their precious child. In this remarkable conversation Paul and Jill take us back to those early days and how Kim’s life has taught them life-changing spiritual truths and led them to fall deeper in love with Jesus.

Paul is author of numerous books, including A Praying Life and A Loving Life. He is Executive Director of seeJesus, a global discipleship ministry which he founded in 1999 to help Christians and non-Christians alike “see Jesus.” Since that time, Paul has taught more than 100 seminars, written a dozen interactive Bible studies, and released three books focused on seeJesus’ core themes: the person of Jesus, love, and prayer. Jill is Paul’s wife. Jill has her own list of amazing accomplishments, including starting businesses and writing curriculum is known for her sense of humor and faith. With all of their amazing accomplishments that offer help and hope to hurting people, perhaps their most loved one is raising their six children and enjoying life as grandparents to 12 grandchildren.

Exodus 21-23 are designed to show the Israelites how to live out the Ten Commandments. Each of these examples are likely real life cases of problems where people needed help in knowing how to apply the law to their everyday lives. Moses was teaching the people how to apply the Moral Law (Ten Commandments) to Civil Law.. He describes the different punishment for murder, kidnapping, divorce, adultery, cursing parents, etc. Each one reflects application of specific commandments. over the years the Israelites interpreted these instructions through the grid of revenge rather than grid of grace. Dr. Betters compares the words of Moses compared to the instructions of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount to respond quite differently to personal offenses. We see in this message that the message of Jesus does not counter Jesus declarations. Jesus’ instructions lead us to ask, “Have we no rights when we are abused or hurt or offended?”
