Mark 3:5 – Read With Intent
PHall | February 14, 2010
The Bible is not a fictional play, but I sometimes wish it were. No I am not wishing it to be inauthentic so that I may excuse my behavior and do as I please. What I mean is that man-made scripts often “set the scene.” Scripts give written instruction for how the lines are to […]
Romans 5:12 – What Question Is Being Asked
PHall | February 10, 2010
Before we can properly get out of a text what the writer put in the text we must discover, “What question is being asked?” To find an answer to a question that is not being asked is an improper use of that text. For example, in Romans 5:12 is Paul asking “why do all men […]
Matthew 16:5-12 – Say What?
PHall | February 6, 2010
It is no wonder that people misunderstand me when I preach. No, I am not referring to my frequent verbal faux pas, mangling of multiple syllabic words, or even the occasional disconnect between my brain and mouth – sometimes the inserted foot makes for a bad connection. No, I am not surprised that people misunderstand […]
Galatians 5:20 – The Seduction of Idolatry
PHall | February 6, 2010
A. It is Subtle 1. There is a sin which a Catholic priest once declared that no one had ever confessed to him – a sin so deadly that the wrath of God comes upon men because of it; a sin so common that probably everybody has at some time been guilty of it; a […]
Galatians 5:20 – Why Is Idolatry a Work of the Flesh?
PHall | February 6, 2010
A. Because Idolatry is a Fleshly Worship 1. John 4:24 NASB “God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” 2. I want us to consider for the moment that the Old Testament Worship that the Israelites were commanded to observe, all of the fleshly worship, was never how God […]
1 Timothy – How To Determine False Doctrine
PHall | January 28, 2010
How do we determine whether or not a doctrine is true or false? We often resort to one sure way, but I would like to suggest others, and invite you to enlarge the list or correct what I suggest. Here are four ways to determine true or false doctrine: 1. The Source – Sound Words […]
Genesis 1:26-27 – Married to the Image of God
PHall | January 15, 2010
In the beginning God said, Let us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; … God created man in His own image in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. God blessed them and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and […]
1 Corinthians 1:26 – Saved by the Letter “M”
PHall | January 8, 2010
I willingly admit that I am not saved by the letter “m.” Some are, no doubt. But not me. In fact, the letter “m” puts me and all others in our proper place. Because of the letter “m” I understand how the world views me – and that view is not pleasant. But that is […]
Romans 2:25-29 – Baptism and Circumcision
PHall | January 8, 2010
When arguing against the necessity of baptism, people classify it as equal to circumcision and then cite: Romans 2:25-29 NASB For indeed circumcision is of value if you practice the Law; but if you are a transgressor of the Law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. (26) So if the uncircumcised man keeps the requirements of […]
