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.

Girls becoming boys? Boys becoming girls? As hard as that is to believe watch a video showing what Canadian schools are teaching their youth and how we must be alert as it spreads into our country. Continue a study of spiritual leaders such as pastors and shepherds. Hear Jesus’ conversation with Peter about his future ministry and the significance of the synonyms that are used. Find out why Jesus’ emphasis on love changes throughout His ministry. Understand that it is God who provides the hearers and the pastor is responsible for feeding his flock.

If you like biographies, then listen to a brief history of Peter’s life in this lesson. First hear ten key events of his time as one of the twelve disciples of Christ, beginning with his introduction to Him by his brother Andrew. Learn about his fishing business, where he lived, and how we know he was married. After Christ’s resurrection, see nine events mentioned mainly in the book of Acts when he was the leader of the Apostles. Finally, hear some traditions about his life found in sources other than the Bible. The important thing to learn about Peter’s life is how he came to understand humility and God’s grace, important lessons for all believers.

Are you wondering how you should pray during a crisis? Listen to this lesson to learn about a hymn David wrote where he praises the Lord and asks Him to give the people relief from judgment that is being used in punishment of David’s sins. Hear four questions he asked that are relevant for us. Then learn of an incident in the New Testament when the disciples were arrested and threatened after the healing of a lame man. See how they carefully crafted their prayer and responded to God’s miraculous answer.
