The thrilling ? (It's a great album, maybe the word "thrilling" isn't correct though.. how about comforting? That feels better!) conclusion to our two part episode on the album "Modern Vampires Of The City" by Vampire Weekend. Cozy up with the crew as we finish up this album!
In this episode, we talk about the various kinds of faith referred to in the Bible. We begin by looking at the Hebrew letter where the writer defines what faith is. There are certain facts that one must know in order to develop the proper faith discussed in the Bible. We note that true faith is an essential element of salvation. Again, the Hebrew writer indicates that God is not pleased with unbelievers who ignore and disbelieve His evidence. We look at the passage where Jesus says that one who does not believe the gospel cannot be saved. Consequently, salvation is promised only to those who are obedient believers. We discuss this principle. One time, Jesus spoke to a certain woman who was a Gentile and told her she had great faith. We note what her faith consisted of. We next look at a situation where Jesus told an individual he had little faith. We note what led to this individual's small amount of faith. Unfortunately, many are spiritually like this individual. In looking at what the Bible says about this person, we find out that he developed greater faith later on in his life. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. There is a transcript of this Buzzsprout episode provided for your convenience.
What's the difference between being a believer and a Christian, the Remnant and the Elect, the Church and the Body, and the Bride of Christ? These are all terms that by most accounts are considered synonymous and applicable to the people today who claim to believe in Messiah. However, over the next several episodes I intend to look at scriptural reasons as to why I believe this is not the case, how most of those terms do not apply to God’s people today, and yet how God has worked within these various aspects of his people over the ages to accomplish specific things for the good of all.
My definition of a biblical believer is someone whose actions and lifestyle express their faith in Yahweh as the one true God, and in Yeshua as his Messiah, or Anointed One. A non-believer's actions demonstrate that they have no faith in Yahweh as the one true God, or in Yeshua as the Messiah, even if they claim to be associated with believers.
Most people who call themselves Christians today are not aware of the academic dispute about the actual phrase used in the Greek: was it christianoi meaning "anointed ones" or "those who follow the anointed" or was the term chrestianoi meaning "good ones" or "those who do good"? There is only one letter difference in the Greek between these two terms, and based on some convincing manuscript evidence (like the Codex Sinaiticus of the 4th century), some scholars think that chrestianoi is the original or preferred rendering.
Next time, we'll be looking at the terms "remnant and elect", so be sure to come back and visit for more perspectives on these titles of God's people.

On this episode, Pastor Rich Bitterman and I will wrap up our super interesting interview about faith, hope, and grace as we talk more about the Christian faith, Jesus Christ's character, how Pastor Bitterman got saved, when he decided to become a pastor, and what he's run into evangelizing the youth at universities in America. Please share all of these episodes with Pastor Rich Bitterman around to your friend/family circles, as many people simply don't know how dangerous New Age beliefs truly are or how desperately they really do need to learn more about God. Read your Bible and encourage others to do the same. The entire world must turn back to God. It's getting unfathomably depraved out here.

When we gather together on Sundays, who should we be focused on ministering to - believers or unbelievers? Of course, our primary focus is to worship Jesus, but should we gear the sermons, worship, prayers, etc to those who are lost or our brothers and sisters in Christ? In other words, is the Sunday worship service about evangelism or discipleship?

In episode 28 of the Bible Unmasked, Pastor Gervon Marsh and Cassandra Pierre discuss Proverbs 15 to Ecclesiastes 4. Both Proverbs and Ecclesiastes are books of wisdom.
Date: July 11, 2021
Questions in this episode
Q: How can we apply this verse in our daily lives? How easy is it to give a gentle
answer when we are rightfully upset, have been wronged, or abused?
Q: The Book of Proverbs provides many words of wisdom like the ones expressed
in this verse. Judging from the way we behave, act in church, and during board
meetings, it’s safe to assume that many church members and leaders are unfamiliar
with the Book of Proverbs. Why is it rarely preached about? Why do preachers focus
more on certain Bible books but tend to neglect others?
Q: Can you please explain this verse? How does it relate to “[t]he fear of the Lord is
the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding” (Proverbs
9:10 NIV.) What’s the difference between wisdom and knowledge? What does it mean
that “[t]he fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One
is understanding”?
Q: Is this always true? Does this verse apply to the 80-year old murderer who’s
serving a life-prison sentence?
Q: What is a fool according to the Bible?
Q: We often acquit the guilty through good lawyering. Should Christians become
lawyers, defend “the guilty,” and fiercely advocate for them? Isn’t it what Jesus did for
us when he died on the cross although we were guilty and deserved death?
Q: Is it wrong for a man to remain single? Do the single receive God’s favor?
Q: Does this verse suggest that being rich is a bad thing?
Q: What does the fear of the Lord mean? Should we be afraid of God?
Q: Does the Book of Proverbs promote violence?
Q: What about babies? What standards are they judged by? Is there an age when we
start to sin? Will all babies go to heaven?
Q: Why? Please explain this verse.
Q: Can you summarize the 30 sayings of the wise man (Proverbs 22- 24)?
Q: Who was Agur (Proverbs 31)?
Q: Women are often demeaned in the Bible. How significant it is that the Book of
Proverbs ends with the description of the “Wife of a Noble Character”(Proverbs 31)?
Q: The Book of Psalms is a compilation of songs. The Book of Proverbs is a book of
wisdom. What do we know about the Book of Ecclesiastes? What’s the best way to
describe it?
Q: How can the dead be happier than the living?

Questions in this episode
Who was Asaph? What role did he or she play in the Bible?
How are the two related?
Can we substitute music for prayer in our worship services and Christian lives?
Chapter 7 speaks against adultery but puts the blame on women only. Why? Aren’t
both the man and woman sinners and equally responsible in an adulterous relationship?
