Galatians 5:16-23 teaches that at any moment we are either walking by the Holy Spirit or according to the sin nature. Walking by the Spirit, enjoying fellowship with God, walking in the light are virtually synonymous. During these times, the Holy Spirit is working in us to illuminate our minds to the truth of Scripture and to challenge us to apply what we learn. But when we sin, we begin to live based on the sin nature. Our works do not count for eternity. The only way to recover is to confess (admit, acknowledge) our sin to God the Father and we are instantly forgiven, cleansed, and recover our spiritual walk (1 John 1:9). Please make sure you are walking by the Spirit before you begin your Bible study, so it will be spiritually profitable.

Light from the Light Channel

January 2023 - March 2025

This series is from our YouTube channel "Light from the Light". 

We based the channel on Psalm 36:9, “For with You is the fountain of life; In Your light we see light.”

From this verse, we learn that our knowledge and understanding must be illuminated by the light of God’s revelation. Frequently we see Scripture refer to God’s revelation, the Bible, as Light. Scriptural revelation may not tell us everything we want to know, but it tells us key things we need to know. Frequently, we must study, investigate, research, and dig into archaeological, linguistic, and historical studies to make certain that we understand God’s Word correctly. A wrong understanding of God’s Word will not be enlightening. Thus, in this ministry, the task is to utilize all of these areas of research to gain an accurate understanding of God’s Word, so that in that light we can gain illumination for the problems, challenges, and applications we need in our own life. Thus we will at times bring in experts in different fields, at other times bring in historical, linguistic, and theological material to expose the meaning of God’s Word the Bible. In His LIGHT, we will see light!
