Did Christ descend into Hell after He died? What does the Bible say about women working outside the home? Should women cover their heads when they pray? How can you tell the difference between legitimate mental illness and sin? In this special Q&A session, Pastor Jesse answers all of these questions and more.

"And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen. And those officers provided victual for king Solomon, and for all that came unto king Solomon's table, every man in his month: they lacked nothing. Barley also and straw for the horses and dromedaries brought they unto the place where the officers were, every man according to his charge. And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore." 1 Kings 4:26-29

Be currently obeying the direct commands of Jesus Be in fellowship with others who are diligent in obeying the direct commands of Jesus Be in the Word of God Apply God's Word to continue in obedience. Apply the Word with prayer and counsel. Most important: Know that God want's you to know His will, even though you're human and make mistakes.

As we get older and older this body loses its physical strength. As we age, we have to rely on God even more. We must have the faith to believe that God can do what we ask. When the enemy is all around God says, "I can prepare a table." We can't get anything from God without faith in Him.

Luke, an eminent Ancient Near East historian, was the only Bible writer to take on this important task: he wrote about the life of Jesus, and he connected it to his account of the life of the church which Jesus ushered in. The end of Luke's gospel and the beginning of Acts is the connecting account. There, Jesus is about to ascend. He has already told them that he must go for the Spirit to descend. The promised descent of the Spirit of God would usher in the kingdom of God in a special way. The time of promise was to become the time of the church. In this gospel age, we who are Christ's are also baptized with the Holy Spirit, and although our role is slightly different from that of the apostles, we are like them endued with power from on high for the purpose of serving God.

The Protestant Reformation recovered a number of fundamental truths. These are expressed in the five solas. At the foundation of the recovery of the gospel was the recover of God's Word to the people in translations based on the Greek and Hebrew, read and preached. All doctrine taught must be based on the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments. This podcast looks at four statements of the Reformers and one from today. God's Word of the Holy Bible as the supreme and sufficient authority was recovered. We must guard this truth in all generations.

• The Messiah's Purpose • The Messiah's Practice • The Messiah's Position

Jesus was about halfway through His brief 3 1/2-year ministry and was entering a new phase. The new phase was the training the twelve who would succeed Him in His mission following His death, resurrection, and ascension to the Father's right hand. As Luke notes, Jesus had many disciples (followers) and out of them, He appointed 12 to be Apostles. The text of this message examines their appointment after His all-night prayer meeting with the Father. He then came down from the mountain and began their initial training (vv. 20-26). This message touches on the first part--blessings and woes.

Study into the last passages in the Gospel of Mark.

In our study, Saul has escaped an assassination plot in Damascus and now comes to Jerusalem where he will meet with the apostles (an HISTORIC moment in Church history!) before continuing a bold ministry that will, again, result in an attempt to have him assassinated. In response, Saul will return to Tarsus. Also Reference: Luke 17:3-4, Philippians 3:4-5, 1 John 1:1-3, Acts 9:15, 1 Corinthians 12:12 https://bbfohio.com

CURRENT EVENTS UPDATE: (1) Israel at War (11/12/23) taking control of North Gaza, threatened escalation by Hezbullah in North Israel with a united Muslim threat of escalation in the region.

(2) A block of abortion in Ohio after the passage of Issue 1 is being attempted by certain conservative Republicans in the Ohio legislature. In our study, Saul has escaped an assassination plot in Damascus and now comes to Jerusalem where he will meet with the apostles (an HISTORIC moment in Church history!) before continuing a bold ministry that will, again, result in an attempt to have him assassinated.

As the apostles await the Promise of the Father, they act to fill up their number, one place having been vacated by the apostasy of Judas. With the disciples gathered, the Scriptures are applied, and Luke adds a few words to explain the situation. Then a solution is proposed and the lot is cast, and so all things are made ready for the establishment of the new covenant Israel of God.

The Apostles were released from prison by an angle of the Lord and when found in the temple preaching the word of God the High Priest had them re-arrested.
