The modern view of Christian worship is often, “worship is the right thing to do, and there’s no wrong way to do it!” Is this accurate? Is this a Scriptural view of New Testament worship? In this lesson, Nate Bibens looks to both the Old and New Testaments to see examples of God-given patterns, and seeks to find the Biblical answer to the questions “Is there a pattern for worship?”

There are those in modern day Christianity who teach the Church was a stop-gap measure put in place when Jesus was unexpectedly rejected by the Jewish people. But if that is they case, then why do the Old Testament prophets speak prophetically of the church? In this lesson, evangelist Ed Daniel investigates a few of the major Old Testament prophecies concerning the Church, and in so doing demonstrates that the Church is part of God’s plan, and the church is identifiable even today!

The majority of modern, American Christians live a comfortable life of safety, security, and plenty. While we rightly thank God for such things, we must also beware. From the beginning of time even the most righteous individuals have struggled to stave off complacency and sinfulness during such times. In this lesson, Nate Bibens examines a handful of such Biblical examples while reminding Christians today of Moses’ message long ago, “Beware, Lest You Forget!”

Most people who claim to be Christian will agree that the Bible is the Word of God. Interpreting and applying the Bible, however, is something about which many disagree. Of the various issues of Bible interpretation, perhaps none has been so difficult as that of Bible silence. In this lesson, brother Ed Daniel helps us determine what is and isn’t true Bible silence, and helps us see from Scripture how we should respond when God is silent.

It’s no secret that there is a great deal of religious confusion in the world today. The real question is, how can we find truth and unity amidst such confusion? In this lesson, brother Ed Daniel reminds us that if we wish to please God and abide in His truth, then we must rely on His Word, and simply be a people “Speaking as the Oracles of God!”

After commending Peter’s great confession and promising to build His church, Jesus said something important, interesting, and it turns out controversial by telling Peter He would give him “the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven.”  In this final study of a 3-part series based in Matthew 16, Nate Bibens discusses what the keys of the kingdom are, how Peter used them, and whether or not they can still be used today!

When Jesus asked His disciples who they thought He was, Peter responded with, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”  Last week Nate Bibens discussed this great confession, and today he continues a study of Matthew 16 with a lesson on Jesus’ response to Peter.  Included in this response is one of the greatest promises ever given, the promise of Jesus that, “I will build My Church!”
