1 Corinthians – Are We As Wise as the Corinthians?
PHall | November 7, 2013
Are we as wise as the Corinthians? When thinking of God’s Church in Corinth, we think of problems such as immorality, greed, division, unscriptural worship, and so forth. And yet as immature as they were, in their wisdom they wrote a letter to a man of God for inspired answers. Even they knew God had […]
John 13 – Application Questions
PHall | November 5, 2013
1. Jesus served by loving, who specifically can you serve by loving? 2. Jesus served by doing, what is not being done that you can do? 3. Jesus served by doing something unexpected and not His responsibility; what can you do likewise? 4. Jesus served by being an example, what is something you have done […]

Practicing the ABC’s of Churchianity is in order: Attendance, Believe right on the issues, and Christlikeness. Christianity is practicing the CBA’s. Christlikness leads to Believing right which leads to Attendance to praise and encourage.
1 Corinthians 8:1-2 – Spiritual Fatheads
PHall | November 5, 2013
If we eat a lot of food without exercise we get a fat belly. If we eat a lot of spiritual food without spiritual exercise, do we get a fat head? Application is what makes knowledge not puff us up with pride.
2 Samuel 15:7-9 – Praying through the Bible #102 – A Prayer as a Pretense to Betrayal
PHall | November 5, 2013
“I’ll pray for you,” so easy to say. Could it be an excuse to do nothing? “I’ll pray for you,” too many say. But is it a cold, empty statement hiding our hurt? “I’ll pray for you” but I won’t talk to you. “I’ll pray for you,” but don’t ask me to forgive you. “I’ll […]
John 1:51 – Amen, Amen
PHall | November 1, 2013
Many modern translations try to capture the meaning of Jesus saying “amen” (or as in John, “amen, amen”). Some say “truly,” “I assure you,” “I tell you the truth,” “verily” and so on. I’ve always liked the simple “amen.” This might be the first time in history that I think ghetto slang has bettered all […]

2 Samuel 12:16; 16:21-22 – Was Bathsheba An Adulteress or Raped?
PHall | November 1, 2013
Seeing David and Bathsheba as simply a story of adultery misses the lex taliones reprisals. Notice “I will take your wives and give them to another before your very eyes, and he will sleep with them publicly” (2Sam.12.16) and the fulfillment, “Sleep with your father’s concubines he left to take care of the palace. When […]
2 Samuel 11 – Is Bathsheba or David the Victim?
PHall | November 1, 2013
Compare the two halves of the narrative:• David sends for Bathsheba and abuses his power over her.• David sends for Uriah and abuses his power over him.To have Bathsheba provoking David and willingly committing adultery destroys the symmetry and has David as the victim in the first half.
