How did Solomon start out so well and then fall so far from God in His later years? What was the source of his downfall? In this episode, Jake explores what he believes to be the hidden cause of Solomon's fall. Even though Solomon had powerful encounters with God, it seems that he neglected what God told kings to do--read the Scriptures all the days of their lives (see Deuteronomy 17:18-19). Let's take this as a warning and determine to live a life that is immersed in the Word of God!

What is the connection between loving God and loving His Word? The two are closely related and practically inseparable. In this episode, Jake teaches about loving God through loving the Scriptures. When the Lord gave the greatest commandment in the law, to love Him with our whole being, He directly followed it with commands about being immersed in His Word. As we give God's Word the priority that it deserves in our lives, we will cultivate a greater love for God Himself!

In 1 Peter 2:2, we are exhorted to desire the 'milk of the word' as newborn babies crave their mother's milk. The result will be growth in the Lord. In this episode, Jake teaches how the Scriptures are the source of spiritual growth for believers. Without feeding on the Word we cannot grow as God intends, but when we regularly feed on the Bible, we will mature in our walk with the Lord. Let's be a people who devour the Scriptures and grow up in Christ!

Jeremiah 29:11 is a favorite Bible passage for many that offers encouragement about God's good plans for their lives. And while we can always trust that God has a plan, who was this specific statement written to and in what context? In this episode, Jake looks deeper at the surrounding verses to show that this statement is not an unconditional promise of good things ahead, but a word of encouragement to God's people in captivity with specific conditions attached. While we can certainly be encouraged by God's good thoughts and plans for us, let's not lose sight of the bigger picture!

Jesus declared that His return will be 'as it was in the days of Noah' (Luke 17:26). Some have taught this to mean that the end times will be similar to the days leading up to the flood, with giants and Nephilim once again upon the earth. But is that what this statement actually means? In this episode, Jake looks at the context surrounding this statement to show that what Jesus was saying is much more mundane than what some try to make this verse to mean. While the Bible certainly portrays end time perils, let's be sure not to misuse Scripture to teach things that the Bible isn't saying!
