Large Topical Studies

The Gospel of Jesus Christ
Salvation is the most important teaching in the Bible and not something any person can afford to get wrong. This examination reveals straight from Scripture what the Gospel is and isn't. A teaching so important that Satan has confused people as far back as Cain. How bad this has become today! This study seeks to eliminate the confusion and present the gospel exactly as the Bible teaches it.
The Current State and Reality of the Church
Describing the current church as it really is and what needs to change for it to improve. The reality of modern Christianity. Please also see The Gospel of Jesus Christ-Water Baptism for the reality of the past 2,000 years of church history since the apostle John's death.
A Survey on How to Live the Christian Life and Prepare for the Tribulation
A simple and basic survey explaining what makes living the Christian life possible through the "loose" terms of growth, progress and production. These stages are critical to living the Christian life and preparing for the soon to come tribulation. All this and much more!
Overcoming Sin
Many believers today don't understand why they still continue to struggle with habitual sin. How do we beat sin in our lives? The Bible gives us the answers that this study attempts to lay out and further explain.
"Meditation" - We are What we Think
No believer can attain to spiritual maturity without first renewing their mind and learning how to keep the Lord and His truth foremost in their thoughts because we think about what we value the most, which determines our thoughts and actions. This study discusses the "thinking" aspect of the word "meditation," a synonym I use here for what goes on in our hearts/minds. That being said, this work does not seek to define the word itself.
The Awesome Character of God - Psalm 78
Psalm 78 has been described as one of the most beautiful and marvelous chapters contained in the book of Psalms. Although that is a subjective matter of opinion, it teaches us huge lessons for today and for the dark days ahead. A God who demonstrates His perfect character in handling humanity should inspire us to follow Him with great zeal faithfully to the end.
How Believers are Defined - The Worth, Value, and Potential of Every Member of Christ's Church
All believers have equal value, worth and potential for true spiritual success in this life and great eternal reward in the next. There is no such thing as any follower of Christ who is disadvantaged.
Galatians 5 and the Fruits of the Spirit- Indications of Salvation and Spiritual Growth
This study covers Galatians 5 as the backdrop to the fruits of the Spirit and other signs and indications of spiritual growth. In doing so, we will also briefly survey the entire book for background's sake, beginning from chapter one and ending with chapter six. Subjects include, but are not limited to the true gospel, the meaning of fallen from grace, walking in the Spirit, the works of the sin nature, and the fruits of the Spirit.
Christian Liberty
A brief non-comprehensive study pushing back against legalism to demonstrate the freedom believers have in Jesus Christ. But there are other things to consider as well. It is best to avoid extremes of saying everything is a sin to taking certain activities too far. There are many areas of application that will require discernment.
Parables of Jesus
One cannot understand the Gospels without comprehending Jesus's parables contained therein. These teachings can be vexing at first, but are not as complicated as they have been made out to be. The approach here was to simplify them in an appropriate manner without being overly technical and seeing more symbolism than what Christ intended us to see.
A Special Treatment on Water Baptism
Examining the Biblical evidence to show that this ritual is no longer for today. Water baptism should have died out a long time ago. In the present church and in the past, it carried/carries legalistic dangers for all who believe/believed in its necessity.
The Sign Gifts
Like water baptism, the sign gifts were temporary in nature during the transitional period of the church from the Old to the New Covenant. We will take a look at all of these things in this study. Much damage has been done by supporting the continuation of gifts God no longer gives. The result of all the movements in support of them have been devastating. This is an important teaching to get right because placing undue emphasis on what the eyes can see and emotions feel distracts from true faith and spiritual growth.
Cryptozoology and the Bible
As mentioned in the study itself, this work is to assure the believer that paranormal/demonic-cryptid activity in no way disproves but supports the existence of a Creator. We must trust in God and His Word with all our heart regardless of what is seen and reported in this world.
