Verse by Verse Study on 2 Corinthians 1-2 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Tonight let's turn to 2 Corinthians, chapter 1. The church of Corinth had been a divided church. There was a lot of carnality, a lot of problems in their doctrines that prompted Paul's first epistle, which is a rather stern epistle, and was a corrective epistle seeking to correct a lot of the doctrinal errors that did exist, seeking to bring them from their carnality into a real spiritual walk. A mark of their carnality, one of the marks of their carnality, was the party spirit that existed. For some were saying, "I am Baptist." And others were sayin...
Verse by Verse Study on Acts 14-15 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Paul and Barnabas, in carrying the Gospel, have come into the uncharted territories as far as the Gospel is concerned into Asia Minor. They came from Cyprus to the area that is now known as Turkey. They did not remain in the coastal plains of Pamphylia. It is thought that Paul probably got malaria fever. It was a very prevalent thing around the coastal plains of Pamphylia at that time. And later on when Paul wrote to the Galatians and he spoke to them of how sick he was when he was there with them. So the fact that Paul did not stay in Pamphyliam, but immediately moved i...
Verse by Verse Study on Acts 10-11 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... In the first chapter of Acts, Jesus said to His disciples, "But you shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and you shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth" (Acts 1:8). Jesus had commanded His disciples to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature, and he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved. So the Gospel of Jesus Christ is for all men, regardless of nationality, ethnic background...
Verse by Verse Study on Acts 22-23 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn in our Bibles now to the twenty-second chapter of Acts. Pick up on Paul where we left him last week in that very dramatic moment. Paul in spite of repeated warnings from the Holy Spirit has returned to Jerusalem where he has received a very cool reception from the church and a very stern reception by the Jews. For while he was in the temple minding his own business, not doing anything to disturb anyone, going through the rite of purification according to the Jewish law in order that he might celebrate the feast of Pentecost that year, some of the Jews from Asia, when t...
Verse by Verse Study on Romans 5-6 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now in our Bibles to the fifth chapter of Romans. Since chapter 3 Paul has been talking about justification by faith. How that God has declared me innocent because of my faith in Jesus Christ. Believing that He took my sin and died in my place; He became my substitute. He took God's judgment for my sin. He bore it for me. By my believing in Him, God declares me innocent of all charges, justified by faith. In chapter 4 he illustrates from the Old Testament, from Abraham, the truth of justification by faith. Then gave to us the keys to ...
Verse by Verse Study on Jeremiah 6-10 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn now in our Bibles to Jeremiah chapter 6. Jeremiah is warning the people of the impending destruction that is coming to Jerusalem because they have forsaken God and turned after the pagan idols of the heathen. And in his message to them, chapter 6 is a continuation, actually, of a message that was started way back in about chapter 3, verse 6. And so this message is a continuation, and here he is warning the children of Benjamin. Now Benjamin was a very small tribe and some of those from the tribe of Benjamin were there in Jerusalem. And he is warning th...
Verse by Verse Study on Isaiah 56-60 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now in our Bibles to Isaiah 56. In Isaiah 55 the Lord speaks of this glorious everlasting salvation and the glories of His greatness, His power. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than yours, My thoughts than your thoughts" (Isaiah 55:9). The blessing and the power of the Word of God. "As the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, returns not thither, waters the e...
Verse by Verse Study on Psalms 61-70 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now to the sixty-first psalm for our beginning of our Bible study this evening. Psalm 61. Hear my cry, O Lord (Psa 61:1); Now in the Hebrew, this word for cry is very intense. It is actually, "Hear my loud wailing, O Lord." Now David was the kind of a guy when he was in trouble, he really let go. Some people are very reserved in their nature. I'm sort of a reserved kind of a person, but David wasn't. I mean, ...
Verse by Verse Study on Joel 3 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Now in those days (Joe 3:1), He goes into chapter 3. and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem (Joe 3:1), That is, in the days--we're getting close now, for God has returned again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem. That I also will gather all nations, and bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat ...
Verse by Verse Study on Habakkuk (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn at this time to the book of Habakkuk. Very little is known concerning the personal background of Habakkuk. Very little, nothing is known. We don't know really anything about his background. There are indications from the book itself that he was of a priestly family, perhaps one of the priests in Israel. He addresses the last chapter, which is a psalm, he addresses it to, "the chief singer on my stringed instrument." And that was usually the place of the priests who were, many of them, God had called them for the purpose of providing music in t...
Verse by Verse Study on Zephaniah & Haggai (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Zephaniah Shall we turn now in our Bibles to the book of Zephaniah. The opening verse tells us that, This is the word of the LORD which came unto Zephaniah the son of Cushi, who was the son of Gedaliah, who was the son of Amariah, the son of Hizkiah, in the days of Josiah (Zep 1:1). Now, of the minor prophets we really have very little of their background. For some reason we have more of Zephaniah's background than any of them, as he gives his lineage. He tak...
Verse by Verse Study on Zechariah 1-5 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we tonight now get into our study in the book of Zechariah beginning with chapter 1. Now if you remember when we studied the book of Haggai last week, Haggai was dating his prophesies in the second year of Darius the king. His first prophecy was in, I think, the sixth month of the second year. He had another prophecy in the seventh month, and his last prophecy was in the ninth month. Now Zechariah also dates his prophesies in the reign of Darius, the Medo-Persian king. So between... and at the same time that Haggai was prophesying, you remember he pr...
Verse by Verse Study on Zechariah 6-10 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Zechariah, chapter 6. Now as we pointed out, the Lord gave to Zechariah ten visions. Visions are subject to interpretation. Oftentimes the meaning of them is rather veiled. And unless the Lord gives the interpretation, then speculation is really foolishness. Because every one can have their own idea, and all of them without real credibility when you turn to speculation or the interpretation of the scriptures. You hear people say, "But there are so many interpretations." Yes, that is true. That is tragically true. I do not believe that God ...
Verse by Verse Study on Matthew 8-9 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn to Matthew's gospel chapter eight. The fifth chapter of Matthew begins "And seeing the multitude, he went into a mountain: and when he had sat down, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying," (Matthew 5:1-2). And so we have the great Sermon on the Mount in Matthew five, six and seven. So in chapter eight it begins, And when he would come down from the mountain (Mat 8:1), An...
Verse by Verse Study on Jeremiah 50-52 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now to Jeremiah chapter 50. Chapter 50 begins with the words, The word that the LORD spake against Babylon and against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet (Jer 50:1). The end of chapter 51 declares, "And thou shalt say, 'Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her, and they shall be weary.' Thus far are the words of Jeremiah." In other words, this is the completion of the words of Jeremiah. No...
Verse by Verse Study on Ezekiel 31-35 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now to Ezekiel, chapter 31. In chapters 29 and 30 of Ezekiel, he was prophesying concerning the judgment of God that was to come against the nation of Egypt, who was like a reed when Israel sought to lean upon it, it broke and only injured Israel. They were, of course, warned about leaning upon Egypt, but the warnings were not heeded and thus Egypt became as a broken staff and did not really help Israel except only temporarily when Pharaoh Haaibre came against Babylon for a time and they stopped the siege against Jerusalem for a short period. ...
Verse by Verse Study on Ezekiel 6-10 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn in our Bibles to Ezekiel the sixth chapter. Ezekiel here addresses himself to the mountains of Israel. The people of Israel had built places of worship on the tops of the mountains, but not worship to Jehovah God, but to Baal, to Molech, Mammon. And because the mountains were the places for these altars and groves and places of pagan worship, he addresses the prophesy against the mountain telling of the desolation that is going to come. How that they are going to be wasted without inhabitant. Now, as we get to the thirty-fourth chapter, thir...
Verse by Verse Study on Ezekiel 11-15 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn now in our Bibles to Ezekiel, chapter 11. Now Ezekiel is in Babylon during the time of these prophecies, but the Spirit of God transports him back to Jerusalem. And there he sees things that are transpiring in Jerusalem. Now as a background, there are some Jewish zealots who are still in Jerusalem who have rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar and they are thinking that they are going to be successful in their rebellion. There are false prophets in Jerusalem that are encouraging the people in their rebellion, telling them that they are going to push...

Verse by Verse Study on Deuteronomy 1-4 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn to Deuteronomy. The word Deuteronomy means the second law. It is really sort of Moses' final address to the people. It probably covers the last month and a half of Moses' life. So he's getting up there now, about a hundred and twenty years old. His eyesight is still keen, he can still hear very well and he is addressing these people, rehearsing for them the work of God in their past because many of them were born while in the wilderness. Many of them did not see the miracle of the Red Sea being parted. They did not have a personal memory of the horrible b...
Verse by Verse Study on 2 Chronicles 1-9 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn to II Chronicles chapter 1. I Chronicles brought us up unto the death of David, and II Chronicles begins with the reign of [Solomon]1 and it covers the remaining history of the kings of Judah. Now this is the chronicles of the kings of Judah. It does not really deal with the kings of Israel, but concentrates upon the southern kingdom, the kingdom of Judah. There were, perhaps, chronicles of the kings of Israel. Those we do not have. But these are the chronicles of the kings of Judah, and I Chronicles occupies it...
Verse by Verse Study on 2 Chronicles 14-18 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... By Chuck Smith In chapter 14 we find the death of Abijah listed and the son Asa coming to the throne. and Asa his son reigned in his stead. The land was quiet for ten years. Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God: he took away the altars of the strange gods, the high places, he broke down the images, and cut down the groves: and he commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment (2Ch 1...
Verse by Verse Study on 2 Chronicles 19-27 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... This time let's turn to II Chronicles, chapter 19. We are dealing at the present time in this area of scripture with the reign of Jehoshaphat, king over Judah. For the most part, Jehoshaphat was a good king. He did develop many spiritual reforms. There was one aspect about his reign that was not good, and that was his desire to develop an affinity and friendship with Ahab, who was the king over the tribes of Israel in the north. Ahab was probably one of the most wicked of all of the kings over Israel. And Jehoshaphat had some kind of a fascination and an endeavor to ...
