The Unsearchable Riches of Christ: Commentary Series

Acts 1:1-8

This study of Acts is our current Sunday night and Wednesday night study.  This is the initial introduction to the book detailing the acts of the Holy Spirit during the church's infancy.  He worked then and is still working today.

Romans 2:12-29

Romans continues with the focus set forth in chapter 1 regarding how men have responded to the light God's given them.  Belief and trust in Him based on that revelation (definition of faith) is of upmost importance, and right alongside our faith is our actions.  What do your day to day actions report about what you believe?

Romans 2:1-11

How do most people respond after hearing the truths of Romans 1?  They deflect attention off themselves by judging other people's actions in relation to their own.  God anticipates this response and begins Romans 2 by encouraging us to examine ourselves.  We must all take a good long hard look in the mirror before it's too late, because the ultimate judgment day is coming sooner than we think.

Romans 1:21-32

How did we as individuals get to the place our society is currently at? ... murder, debate, maliciousness, inventors of evil things, without natural affection, etc. ... Romans 1 holds the answer.

0058 A Centurion's Servant

Time, as always, quickly evaporates on us as we begin our study of Luke 7.  We examine the first of four stories contained in this chapter where each story teaches a grand truth concerning Jesus Christ.  Just what are those truths?  Open your Bibles and let’s study the word of God.

Romans 1:16-20

God's operation and dealing with man is summarized in a simple phrase .... faith to faith.  What exactly does that mean?  Well, open your Bible to Romans 1 and let's find out.

Romans 1:13-15

Hindrances in life are inevitable, both spiritually and physically speaking.  How we respond to adversity and challenges will shape our spiritual walk with Christ.  So, let's study the word of God to see what hindered Paul from coming to Rome, how he responded, and what we can learn to help us respond correctly to circumstances that hinder us. 

Romans 1:9-12

God's heart desire for His church is that we would be "comforted together."  Paul is a wonderful example of what that phrase means scripturally, so let's examine the scriptures together to learn what God desires for us.

The Mystery of Godliness

1 Timothy 3:16 speaks of the mystery of godliness.  Just what is that mystery?  Well stick around and let's study the word of God to find out.

Romans 1:1-8

At Liberty Baptist Church we have started a study of the book of Romans.  This is an examination of the introductory verses to this grand epistle.  

**Podcast Update**

This podcast is now a ministry extension of Liberty Baptist Church in China Grove, North Carolina.

0057 Sermon on the plain

Today we wrap up Luke 6 by examining the sermon Christ delivered to His disciples on the plain.  To summarize, this message addresses our physical walk of life while living in the spiritual kingdom of God that He has called us into.  So, that begs the question: how is the physical aspect of life interconnected with the spiritual?  Well, let’s study the scriptures to find out.

0056 Apostles

We’re still in Luke 6, and Jesus is about to choose His 12 apostles from among all the disciples.  So, what is an apostle?  What was their role?  Do we still have apostles today?  These are many of the questions we will discuss and answer in today’s episode.  So, open your Bibles and let’s study the word of God.

0055 Discipleship 2 - Pharisees

As we begin Luke 6, the Pharisees become the predominate focus of the scripture.  Today, Lord willing, I want to piggyback our discussions with the truths we learned about discipleship just a few lessons ago.  If we’re not careful to possess a balanced Christian life, as we previously discussed, I’m afraid our spiritual lives begin to resemble the Pharisees more than what God intended for us to be.  So with that in mind, let’s examine these Pharisees.

0054 Jesus the Bridegroom

Last time together, we briefly (and I mean ever so briefly) discussed the biblical truth that Jesus is the bridegroom.  What exactly does that mean?  Well, the Bible has much to say regarding this topic so open to Luke 5 and let’s study the word of God.

0053 Discipleship 1

Many biblical truths unfold before our eyes in the final verses of Luke 5.  Here we find three different groups of disciples presented; therefore, one of those truths is discipleship.  So, just what does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus Christ?  Well, let’s study the word of God and see what the New Testament teaches us.

0052 Healing

Jesus progresses with His earthly ministry, and here in Luke 5 we find several instances of healing for the citizens of Israel.  We also learn that their physical need for healing is directly connected to their spiritual condition.  So, today, the truths of the Old Testament come directly into view as we learn what these healings have to teach us.  Let’s get started.

0051 Forsaking All

Today, in Luke 5, Peter along with James and John Zebedee are called to follow Christ in the most peculiar way.  As a result, they forsake all and follow Him.  So, just what does it mean to forsake all?  Well, let’s turn to Luke 5 and study the word of God together.

0050 Ministering

Today we close out Luke 4 and the idea of ministering is the prevalent topic throughout the final verses of this chapter.  In fact, four “ministers” can be found in this chapter so what do they have to tell us?  Well, open your Bibles and let’s find out.

0049 Jesus at the Synagogue

We’re in chapter 4 of Luke, and we find Jesus returning to Nazareth from the wilderness where he visits the Synagogue and announces to all those present who He really is.  Who is He according to this chapter?  He’s the fulfillment of Isaiah 61.  So, let’s contextually examine this entire passage to receive a blessing in the truths it holds.
