1 Peter 3:7 – Weaker Vessel
PHall | March 1, 2024
Weaker Vessel (1 Peter 3:7) When reading the Bible, women are AS (important word) the “weaker vessel” (1 Peter 3:7). This means women are not literally a weaker vessel, but rather men are to treat them AS a weaker vessel, something delicate, precious, and needing protection. Men must be careful not to impose upon the […]
John 3 – Jesus Explains What He Preaches
PHall | March 1, 2024
Jesus Explains What He Preaches Heard an argument that born of water (John 3:5) cannot mean water baptism because there is no precedent for Nicodemus to connect Jesus’s words to. Well, if that is true, and I don’t grant that (3:10), then connect Jesus’s words to his follow-up actions: John 3:22 – After this (i.e., […]
Reading Past John 3:16
PHall | March 1, 2024
Reading Past John 3:16 Do we sometimes miss a powerful point because we stop reading? John 3:16 is so well-known that people stop reading. What happens if we keep reading? Notice these contrasts: “For God loved the world” (John 3:16) vs. “People loved the darkness” (John 3:19) “He gave his one and only Son” (John […]

Which of the following fits someone you know: 1) They still believe in Jesus but they are not active in their faith; 2) They adopted the world’s beliefs and moral systems; 3) Their peers are their guide; 4) They are too busy to be bothered with everything; […]
Miracle or Miracle Worker?
PHall | March 1, 2024
Miracle or Miracle Worker? Every physical miracle points to a spiritual reality. Every sign and wonder is inferior to the spiritual reality it points to. What would people rather experience? Jesus condemned those demanding signs and wonders (John 6). Miracles visibly benefited people. Therefore they are preferred. Why are we so willing to accept the […]
Why the Cross? It is Fitting
PHall | March 1, 2024
Why the Cross? It Is Fitting The Bible is interpreted as teaching connections between characters and events such as Jesus and Jeremiah, Joseph, and most famously Isaac (Genesis 22). Not every detail is directly stated, but rather narratively derived through type and antitype (i.e., Hebrews 11:19; 1 Peter 3:21). So such is a biblical method. […]
1 Peter – What is Peter’s Favorite Bible Story?
PHall | March 1, 2024
What Is Peter’s Favorite OT Story and Why? Peter’s favorite O.T. story is….? If we read his epistles, one OT story is recounted 3 times: 1 Peter 3:20, 2 Peter 2:5 and 3:5-6. This OT narrative is only mentioned 6 times in the NT (Matthew 24:37–39, Luke 17:26–27, 1 Peter 3:20, 2 Peter 2:5, 2 […]
1 Peter 3 – Suffering in Baptism?
PHall | March 1, 2024
Suffering in Baptism? In the midst of Peter discussing suffering and judgment, he mentions “baptism now saves” (1 Peter 3:21). Contextually, what baptism saves us from is God’s judgment on a sinful world. The context from 3:14-4:19 is “Suffering and Judgment”. However, there are many ways baptism cannot save us from suffering because baptism is […]
