Search Bible Classes

The search function searches Bible class descriptions and transcripts. When the search function finds the search word or phrase, you will be presented with links to the classes that contain those words. The link will take you to the class audio page. If you want to find where the search phase is located in the Bible class transcript, click on the Transcript:read link to view the transcript. Once in the transcript window, type Ctrl-F (PC) or Cmd-F (Mac) to enter the word or phrase in the browser search box, and it will show you all occurrences of your search word(s).

Search Tips

  • Entering a search string with no other criteria (such as AND, NOT, or quote marks) will return some of the context around the words you entered (which are highlighted) as well as a link to the audio player for the class.
    That page will also have links to the video, transcript, and slides for that class.

  • Entering two search terms separated by the word AND will return links to all items which contain both of those terms as well as part of the description of each class.

  • Entering two terms separated by the word NOT will return links to all items which contain the first term but not the second term as well as part of the description of each class.

  • Entering a search string in quotes will return links to items that contain the exact phrase as well as part of the description of each class.

Do you know what hypostatic union means? Could you explain it to others? Listen to this message to learn how the early Church fathers struggled with this doctrine after the death of the last Apostle, John. Hear about a number of them, beginning with Clement and their vague explanations which were influenced by Greek philosophy. See these earliest attempts to put into words an understanding of the Trinity and the necessity for Christ to be both fully divine and fully human in order to be the Mediator between God and man.

Dr. Dean recommended that you visit the Builders of Israel website for more information about our upcoming Evangelism & Apologetics seminar.
