Genesis – You Are No Longer In Eden
PHall | August 16, 2024
Eden begins Genesis and Genesis ends with Egypt. These two geographical areas are thematically connected because Genesis ends in ways opposite of how it begins. These operate narratively as bookends: • Beginning – From emptiness to blessings in 7 days. • Ending – From 7 years blessings to 7 years famine (emptiness). • Beginning – […]
Ephesians 6:1-4 – Who’s Leading Whom?
PHall | August 16, 2024
After WWII, a new family unit was created – the teenager. Before that, “teens” didn’t exist as a celebrated age. Before that “teens” were young adults. Since then, the trauma of war-torn youth led sway to the coddling of teens. That has led to a verse you might be very familiar with – Fathers, don’t […]
Preaching to Be Paid or Being Paid So You Can Preach?
PHall | June 27, 2024
Men should not preach to get paid; men should be paid so they can preach. There is a fundamental difference in that statement: • If someone preaches to get paid, the emphasis is on the preacher wanting to receive money from the congregation for the time that he preached. • If someone is paid so […]
Put Jesus on Trial
PHall | June 18, 2024
When talking with atheists, I like to tell them to put Jesus on trial. How do we do this? Practical: Examine Jesus’s Teachings: 1. What do you think of Jesus’s teachings? 2. Are Jesus’s teachings indicative of a wise man, a conniver, or lunatic? 3. How do Jesus’s teachings compare to others? 4. Is Jesus […]
1 Peter 5:5-7 – Is Humility A Solution to Worry?
PHall | March 18, 2024
Is Humility the Solution to Anxiety? Is a solution to worry, humility? Is pride a cause of anxiety? Seeing how a text is structured can yield unexpected truths. Notice how 1 Peter 5:5-7 has sets of opposites presented in Step Parallelism: STRUCTURE OF TEXT: • A1 – HUMILITY TOWARDS ONE ANOTHER – And all of […]
The Writers of the NT
PHall | March 18, 2024
The Writers of the New Testament How closely are the writers of the NT connected to Jesus? Matthew (Apostle) Mark – Disiciple of Peter (Apostle) Luke – Disiciple of Paul (Apostle) John (Apostle) Acts – Disiciple of Paul (Apostle) Romans – Philemon – Paul (Apostle) Hebrews? James (Brother of Jesus) 1-2 Peter (Apostle) 1,2,3 John […]
American First or Christian First?
PHall | March 18, 2024
American First or Christian First? Politics are dividing Americans, but that is secondary to this exercise. Politics are a stumbling block to evangelism and Jesus said what about stumbling blocks? Matthew 18:7 – Woe to the world because of its stumbling blocks! For it is inevitable that stumbling blocks come; but woe to the person […]
Distractions During the Lord’s Supper
PHall | March 18, 2024
Distractions During Communion These verses used to scare me: So, then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sin against the body and blood of the Lord (1 Corinthians 11:27) For whoever eats and drinks without recognizing the body, eats and drinks judgment […]
Ephesians 4 – What Comes Out Our Mouths
PHall | March 18, 2024
What Comes Out Our Mouths What’s the first thing to come out of your mouth if, while holding a nail, you hit your thumb with a hammer? 1. Cuss words? 2. Name calling (i.e., “Perry, you’re such a clumsy idiot!”)? 3. Shifting Blame to others (i.e., “You must have given me a bad nail!”)? 4. […]
