The Bible speaks of 5 times when God's judgment is poured out on mankind as a whole. In the previous episode, Ed Potter deals with the first three of those times, which are now in the past. In this concluding lesson, he explains why the Last Judgment takes place on 2 separate days. We can choose which one of those days we will appear before God. You can skip this lesson, but you can't skip your Divine Court appearance. Here's why you should choose to appear on Day 4 and how you can be sure you won't have to appear on Day 5.

Judgment Day -- Terrifying words, but who really takes them seriously? In this episode, Ed Potter presents Part 1 of a 2-part study on the judgment of God, which Biblically speaking is spread over the course of Man's presence on earth. We think of Judgment Day as one Final Day, but God has been judging individuals and nations all the time. There are, however, 5 specific times when the judgment of God is poured out, affecting all of mankind, everyone one of us. Here are the first three judgments. The good news is that all judgment does not end in condemnation, 

The last two Judgment Days will be considered in Part 2.

These two episodes are a follow-up to the podcast WS#5, Our Celestial Coldplay Moment

"It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is." - That statement by Bill Clinton is the best way to sum up the issue underlying this exposition of Hebrews 11.6, which revolves around what the meaning of the word "is" is. This is a foundational point, because it deals with the very nature of God Himself, and our responsibility because of it.

Exposition of Psalm 147.10-11
As children, we are impressionable. We grow older, and we begin to realize that everything that impresses us is not equally worthy of our admiration. There's a part of childhood wonder that we should never discard, but it must develop from mere wonder into mature wisdom, wisdom that recognizes the nature of the stream of life that is carrying us to our final destination.  Here we look at what impresses God, and what does not.

The Mayhem in Minnesota is not Donald Trump’s fault, but it is something he has to deal with. Immigration is not the issue, and deportation is not the evil. The key to understanding the problems of the city on Interstate-94 is found in Psalm 144. That’s a long leap of 2500 years but it ends up right here where we live.

Reading the Hebrew text of the OT  can be a daunting challenge. The translation of obscure words and unusual phrasing requires dependence on the Holy Spirit for an understanding of the best way to  communicate the lesson of a particular text. Many possibilities for translating a verse have appeared over the centuries, and after looking at some of them, one must choose one that corresponds to the specific context and the overall teaching of Scripture. Here is my reading of Psalm 137.7; I don't claim it is the only possible interpretation, but I got this lesson from it.

We all know about Historical Fiction and may have read some, but there is also Fictional History. The Genesis Story is neither.

O livro favorito da Bíblia para muitas pessoas é provavelmente o livro dos Salmos. Esta coleção de poesia hebraica é o livro mais longo da Bíblia e expressa toda a gama de emoções humanas: lamentos dolorosos, questionamentos duvidosos e agradecimentos alegres pela libertação. Um dos versículos favoritos é o Salmo 126.3: "Grandes coisas fez o Senhor por nós, pelas quais estamos alegres." Mas o texto original em Hebraico diz outra coisa.

The favorite book of the Bible for many people is probably the book of Psalms. This collection of Hebrew poetry is the longest book of the Bible and expresses the whole range of human emotions: sorrowful wailing, doubtful questioning, and joyful thanks for deliverance. One of the favorite verses is Psalm 126.3: “The LORD has done great things for us, and we are glad.” That sounds good, but that’s not what the original in Hebrew says.

Nos meus podcasts e sermões, raramente refiro-me a uma pessoa pelo seu nome e, nas raras ocasiões em que o faço, nunca é para a provocar ou para atiçar o fogo de controvérsia. E não pretendo silenciar opiniões com as quais não concordo. Acredito que todos têm o direito de propor uma posição diferente da minha e estarem errados. Mas também acredito que há momentos em que devo apontar onde a outra pessoa está errada, não com base nos meus sentimentos pessoais ou preferências individuais, mas por aquilo que a Bíblia diz claramente. Há um grupo na América que crê que a Igreja vai converter América a Cristo e depois o mundo. Fé ou fantasia? Eis o que a Bíblia diz.
