A look at "Christian Nationalism" and how it relates to biblical christianity and our roles as believers. How we are to interact with government, society, and authorities as biblical pilgrims on this earth? What does history teach us?

Recall with me the original motivation for the golden calf: "Make us gods to go before us," said Israel to Aaron. And he did. But that was no god, not worth worshiping, incapable of leading. Nonetheless, it well expressed the human desire for a visible god. We want to see what we worship! It is astonishing what an outsized role the sense of sight plays in our lives. That is true also in the religious sphere. But I want you to see with me that God addresses that felt need in an absolutely glorious, God-sized display of His glory before Moses. The people had asked for a visible God to go before them; now, in the opening verse of our text, Moses requests the same thing. To be known by God is much. To find grace in the sight of God is much. But to see the glory of God — that is more. That is what we were made for. The craving for a god we can see is expressed in Moses' request to see God's glory — and it is addressed by God's willingness to show His goodness and His back to Moses. Show us the Father, and it is enough for us! That is exactly what happened here, as the Father showed Himself to Moses, and it was enough — not just for Moses, but for all of us as we absorb the glory of the holy one as conveyed to us through the Mediator's account of his vision of God.

CURRENT EVENTS: (1) Four weeks before Ohio's August 8th special election, we urge folks to vote YES on Issue 1 and explain why the topic is "evergreen" as we fight "direct democracy" to defend our state Constitution. (2) Headlines and Happenings with some levity... In our study, we are at Pentecost after the speaking in tongues as men heard the Gospel in their own native languages. Peter now presents the potential prophecy of Joel 2:28-32 and we demonstrate the Joel's prophecy was NOT fulfilled at Pentecost and IS not being fulfilled in the Church Age but waits fulfillment during the Great Tribulation to come. Meanwhile, Peter present the fulfillment of Old Testament resurrection prophecies by Jesus and confronts the House of Israel with the need to repent of killing their Messiah by turning toward God with faith toward the Lord Jesus Christ. Also Reference: Joel 2:32, Hebrews 11:7, Jude 5, 1 Timothy 2:15, 1 Peter 3:21, Matthew 27:52-53, 1 Peter 1:13-25 https://bbfohio.com

We need to get our minds and hearts wrapped around what Christ requires of us. God is righteous and powerful, and He will judge us. God is all powerful and knows exactly who we are.

One of the most wonderful and inspiring things to see is a white-haired elderly saint who is in love with the Lord and serving Him with joy. Otherwise, the white hair doesn't mean anything except "age". We will look at an example... And we will see what Jesus' hair looks like, today! https://bbfohio.com

We are in the closing days of the month long annual assault upon morality. What should a believer do in these evil days. Thankfully, the Scriptures provide the timely answers.

Cruelty is a mark of the devil. Many saints will be murdered by the dictates of the antichrist in the Tribulation. They have a home in heaven. This is important.

In our study, we are warned that the day of the Lord comes "as a thief in the night". We address the question of the imminent Rapture, the Day of the Lord running from the moment of the Rapture to the Great White Throne Judgment, etc. Also Reference: John 20:19-22, Acts 2:42, 1 Timothy 3:15, Ephesians 2:20, Revelation 3:3, Amos 5:18, Luke 12:39, 2 Peter 3:9-18 https://bbfohio.com

The Lord has set forth patterns for his people to follow. God has given patterns not just for old testiment worship but for us today!

Jesus is going to judge unbelievers at the Great White Throne judgement. May we take to heart the seriousness of it. May we pour out ourselves and let the Holy Spirit have His way that we may win others and glorify God with our witness for Christ.

The antichrist will be a wicked man who will use coercion to win people's support. He will be good at it and people will be very gullible. True Christians will not be here when he comes. Lost people are easily manipulated.

we take a look at the first 2 horsemen of the apocalypses. The rider on the white horse, and the rider on the red horse.

In our study, Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary mother of James and wife of Cleophas, as well as other WOMEN discover the empty tomb and return to bear witness to the apostles. Also Reference: Matthew 28:1, Psalm 119:2-3, Psalm 119:11, 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 https://bbfohio.com

6 Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, "Come and see." 2 And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer. 3 When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, "Come and see." 4 Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword. 5 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come and see." So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales[c] in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine." 7 When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, "Come and see." 8 So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth. 9 When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?" 11 Then a white robe was given to each of them; and it was said to them that they should...
