Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed. And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the third likewise. And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also. In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife. And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? LUKE 6:39-42 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch? The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye. LUKE 17:3-4 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him. And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him. JOHN 15:2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. ACTS 13:8-10 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him, And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? ROMANS 15:14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another. 1 CORINTHIANS 3:2-3 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? 1 CORINTHIANS 4:21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness? 1 CORINTHIANS 5:4-5 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 1 CORINTHIANS 5:6-7 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: 1 CORINTHIANS 11:17-18 Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse. 18For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

If you are a first-time listener of our program, it’s called Search the Scriptures Daily, and it’s our encouragement that everyone, whether this program or wherever you are getting information that would be of a spiritual nature, religious nature, our encouragement is to check everybody out, check us out—search the Scriptures daily—use the Bible as your authority. After all, it claims to be God’s Word, and I know Dave’s going to jump right in here, and he says, “I can prove that it’s God’s Word,” and we can prove that it’s God’s Word. But the important thing is that, as you hear information, there are many great teachers—God has gifted many people to be excellent teachers—however, the responsibility lies with the individual. You have to know what you believe, why you believe it. You’re the one who has to search the Scriptures to understand the Scriptures—to know what God says so you can be discerning when you are hearing other people teach.

McMahon. I’m Gary Carmichael. Thanks for tuning in. In today’s program, Tom launches a two-part series with guests, authors Martin and Deidre Bobgan. Here’s TBC executive director Tom McMahon. Tom: Thanks, Gary. On today’s program and next week, as well, we’ll be discussing what the Scripture has to say about believers ministering to one another, which, sad to say, is foreign to the way most churches with rare exceptions go about counseling, even under the label of “biblical counseling.” My guests to discuss this important subject are Dr. Martin and Deidre Bobgan. They are prolific writers with more than 20 titles to their credit, nearly all addressing the scriptural problems with psychological counseling and Christian psychology, so-called. Many of their books can be downloaded from their website, which is pamweb.org, or you can order their books, their hardcopies, from The Berean Call. Deidre, Martin, thanks for being with me again on Search the Scriptures 24/7. Deidre: Well, thank you for inviting us. We always enjoy talking about these issues with you, Tom. Martin: Yeah, thank you, Tom. It’s always a great pleasure to speak with you and interact.

Throughout the United States, Halloween, along with its variants across the world, has become one of the most popular unofficial “holidays.” Department store lines are filled with people buying candy, costumes, and decorations. But what does Halloween actually celebrate? Bodie Hodge addresses the origin and purpose of Halloween, while showing its roots in Paganism dating back to times before Christ and potentially prior to the dispersion at the Tower of Babel. Throughout this powerful teaching, Bodie continually looks to what the Bible says about the topics as he reflects on how we as Christians should respond.

It was on that date in the year 1517 that a 33-year-old Augustinian friar named Martin Luther nailed his Disputation on the Power & Efficacy of Indulgences (also known as The Ninety-Five Theses) on the door of All Saints’ Church in Wittenberg, Germany. Luther did this knowing it would be widely viewed the next day in the heart of the Holy Roman Empire1 on the Roman Catholic holy day of All Saints’ Day. Luther’s letter had its desired effect: it was widely read and eventually led to his excommunication by Pope Leo X on January 3, 1521. Endnotes 1. What is now Germany was in the heart of the (Roman Catholic) Holy Roman Empire, of which Voltaire famously said, “…is neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire….” 2. The even more famous statement, “Here I stand. I can do no other,” is disputed, but may also have been among his expressed sentiments. 3.

They were confident also that it would always be remembered and cherished as the day that the planet was rescued from an almost certain holocaust. For residents of an area famous for its fog, it would certainly be remembered as one of the most beautiful June days in history.

She had gone back to the base to try to reason with Viktor—without success. Ken had waited up for her, and together they sat at the kitchen table to talk—the first time he’d been available to do that in nearly a week. “I really like Viktor,” said Ken, “but I’ve never seen anyone so stubborn. Did he tell you what he intends to do?” “No. He just repeated what he said at dinner—that he has his own plan and knows exactly what he’s going to do. But he wouldn’t spell it out. I’m worried about him.” Originally titled: THE ARCHON CONSPIRACY
