Seven Natural Divisions of the Bible
God is a God of order. He is also a God who divides. Even on the first day of creation, He divided the light from the darkness. And, He expects His servants to rightly divide His word (2Timothy 2:15).
How to Study the Bible - Lesson One
With this lesson, you begin a course on how to study the Bible. The wonder and richness of the Bible makes it hard to find a starting place. But before you go very far, you must understand a little about what makes the Bible so special. The Bible is unlike any other book in the world. It is a direct message from God.
Nabal the Fool
The name Nabal means fool (see 1 Samuel 25:25). In scripture, a fool is much more than a degrading name you throw at someone you dislike.
Jesus and Wine
Did Jesus drink alcoholic wine? It is assumed by a great many that He did. Let’s examine this for a moment.
David Anointed to be King

Christ - A King
There is no higher name or title to set forth dignity amongst men, than kings or mighty potentates.
