Verse by Verse Study on Exodus 21-22 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Exodus chapter twenty-one, God said to Moses, Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them (Exd 21:1). Now the judgments are really for the judges. You remember they appointed seventy to rule over the lesser, or they appointed "men over the thousands, men over the hundreds, men over the fifties, men over the tens", to judge in the smaller matters. So that they would only bring the major cases to Adam-I mean to Moses, so that Moses wouldn't be bogged down. Jethr...
Verse by Verse Study on 1 Corinthians 15-16 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn to I Corinthians, chapter 15. The Corinthian church was a real mess. A lot of carnality that led to divisions, a lot of party spirit, a real misunderstanding of the spiritual gifts, a lot of weird concepts. There were some in Corinth who declared that there was no resurrection from the dead, sort of a Sadducean background, perhaps. Paul, having corrected the other problems that they wrote to him about, now finally tackles the final problem of those people who were declaring there is no resurrection of the dead. So Paul, first of all, dec...
Verse by Verse Study on Psalm 81-90 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn to Psalm 81. On the first day of the seventh month in the Jewish calendar, which, because their calendar begins, the religious calendar begins the first of April, it usually coincides somewhere around the first of October on our calendar. There is a blowing of the trumpets. It's called the Feast of the Trumpets to announce the most holy month of the year, the seventh month. And so the first day of the seventh month the Feast of Trumpets, the blowing of the trumpets to inaugurate this holy month fol...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Exodus 22:7-9
... "CAN WE BECOME GODS?" I. JOHN RECORDS THE DISPUTE OF JESUS WITH THE PHARISEES IN CHAPTER 10. JESUS HAD JUST SAID: JOH 10:30 I and [my] Father are one. JOH 10:31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. ...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for 1 John 4:2
... "1 JOHN 4:2" Intro. We were told to test the spirits to see if they were of God because of the many false prophets. I. WHAT IS THE BASIC TEST? A. Their testimony concerning Jesus Christ. 1. I have noted that Satan has three main targets. The Bible as the inspired word of God; the Deity of Jesus Christ; the work of the Holy Spirit. 2. ...
Verse by Verse Study on John 9-10 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now in our Bibles to the gospel according to John, chapter 9. Jesus had been having a dispute with the Pharisees in the temple at the time of the Feast of the Tabernacles, six months or so before the Passover in which He was crucified. And in the eighth chapter it records His conversations with them, with His declaring unto to them, "Before Abraham was I am." And so the last time we saw Jesus they were taking up stones to throw at Him, and He passed by them and left the temple precincts. And as Jesus passed by...
Verse by Verse Study on 2 Corinthians 11-13 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn to II Corinthians, chapter eleven. Paul's authority as an apostle has been challenged in the Corinthian church by certain Jewish teachers who had come in behind Paul, as they so often did, seeking to put the people under the bondage of legalism. Knowing Paul as we do, we know the emphasis of his ministry was the grace of God. And there were those who really could not handle the grace of God as Paul taught it, and they would come in following Paul and tried to discredit Paul. And they would seek to, as I said, put the people under legalism saying tha...
Verse by Verse Study on Galatians 5-6 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now to Galatians chapter five. The whole concept is: how do I establish a righteous standing before God? Can I be righteous by keeping the law? Or am I righteous by my simple faith in Jesus Christ? Now, Paul taught righteousness through faith. There followed Paul teachers, Judaizers who brought another gospel, which was not really a gospel. For they were saying that was it was necessary to be circumcised and to keep the law of Moses in order to be righteous before God, to be saved. And so Paul is standing against this teaching in his letter to the Galatians, and in chap...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Ephesians 4:4
... I. ENDEAVORING TO KEEP THE UNITY OF THE SPIRIT IN THE BOND OF PEACE. A. Later in the chapter he will speak of the unity of the faith. 1. The unity of the faith comes much later than the unity of the Spirit. 2. There are those who are very divisive. A group known as CURE are heavy into Calvinistic doctrine and always seem to have an ax to grind with everyone who does not embrace their position. 3. Of course when you get a...

... I. BUT YOU HAVE AN UNCTION FROM THE HOLY ONE. A. This is a reference to the Holy Spirit. B. The word unction is the Greek word chrisma. It is elsewhere translated anointing. C. This anointing is therefore from the Holy Spirit. D. The purpose of the anointing of the Holy Spirit is to help them to know all things. 1CO ...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for 1 John 4:1
... "1 JOHN 4:1" I. "BELOVED, BELIEVE NOT EVERY SPIRIT." A. John is telling them to not be gullible. 1. Just because someone wears a prophet's attire does not mean that he is a true prophet. 2. Just because they say, "Thus saith the Lord," Does not mean that God has spoken. B. "Try the spirits to see if they ...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Acts 15:11
... I. THE SUBJECT IS SALVATION. WHAT MUST ONE DO TO BE SAVED? WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE SAVED? A. What are we saved from? 1. Our past life in bondage to sin. a. Sin has a way of wrapping its ugly tentacles about our lives and holding us in its grip. b. Experience of catching squid when in sixth grade. 2. The consequences of our sin. a. The wages of sin is ...
Verse by Verse Study on 1 John 4 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now in our Bibles to I John chapter 4. As we go back to verse 24 of chapter 3, the later portion, "Hereby we know that He abides in us by the Spirit which He has given us." I know that God abides in life. How do I know? Because He has given me the Holy Spirit. Paul said, "The Holy Spirit is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession" (Ephesians 1:14). We have been sealed, he said, with this Holy Spirit of promise; the seal was God's mark of ow...
Verse by Verse Study on Nehemiah 1-7 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... By Chuck Smith Let's turn to Nehemiah for our study this evening. Nehemiah introduces himself in the first verse of chapter 1 and the date of the writing of his prophecy, the twentieth year of Artaxerxes, which was the stepson of Queen Esther. So the book of Esther, if you were writing in a chronological order, would fit somewhere between Ezra and Nehemiah. The Artaxerxes here is actually the stepson of Esther, son of Artaxerxes of the husband of Esther. And so in the twentieth year would be in the twentieth year of the reign of thi...
Verse by Verse Study on Luke 12-13 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn in our Bibles to Luke's gospel, chapter 12. We are dealing with the final month in the ministry of Jesus. He has returned to Jerusalem. He will soon be leaving Jerusalem to go down to the area of the Jordan River beyond Jericho. Where He will sort of absent Himself from the authorities, until such a time as He comes back for the feast of the Passover, and makes His triumphant entry on the Sunday before the feast of the Passover. So just where, here in Luke's account, does Jesus leave Jerusalem, is not declared by Luke. John tells us about this lit...
Verse by Verse Study on Deuteronomy 9-16 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... As we have told you the word Deuteronomy means the second law. It is really a rehearsal, sort of a capsulation by Moses of the law that was given. Deuteronomy itself, though it covers the forty years from Egypt to the entering in of the Promised Land, covered only about forty days, as far as the time of it being given to the children of Israel. Moses was now an aging man, however he was still very spry. He still had excellent eyesight, excellent hearing, none of his forces had abated. Sometimes I have to put on my glasses I say, "God, you did it for Moses, why don...
Verse by Verse Study on Proverbs 26-31 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now to Proverbs 26 to begin our study this evening. The first twelve verses of Proverbs 26 we trust doesn't apply to any of you tonight, because it's sort of addressed towards fools. As snow in summer, and as rain in harvest, so honor is not seemly for a fool (Pro 26:1). The thing about snow in summer and rain in harvest is that they are just out of place. So hon...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Ezekiel 28:1
... "AM I A GOD?" I. THE HISTORIC SETTING. A. The city of Tyre was one of the most beautiful and richest cities in the world. 1. The king of Tyre was very wise and a shrewd business man who had increased greatly the riches of Tyre. 2. As the people began to laud him for his great wisdom, they began to hold him up and worship him as a God. 3. The problem was he began to believe it a...

... I. "HEREBY WE KNOW THAT WE DWELL IN HIM, AND HE IN US." A. In John 14, Jesus said to His disciples, "In that day you will know that I am in the Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you." 1. In John 15, Jesus said, "Abide in Me, and I in you as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself except it abide in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in Me.&...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for 1 John 2:26
... I. THESE THINGS HAVE I WRITTEN UNTO YOU CONCERNING THEM THAT WOULD SEDUCE YOU. A. Paul warned Timothy, in his second letter, concerning the last days that evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. 1. The words deceiving and being deceived are the same words in Greek as seduce. 2. In his fisrt letter he said, 1TI ...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for 2 Timothy 3:16
... "THE INSPIRED WORD" Intro. The Bible claims that God who exists outside of space and time, created the Universe and all of the life forms in it, has revealed Himself to man, and that the Bible is that revelation. I. "ALL SCRIPTURE IS GIVEN BY INSPIRATION OF GOD." A. David made the claim that the Spirit of God was speaking through him. 2SA ...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Matthew 7:1
... MATTHEW 7:1 I. "JUDGE NOT THAT YOU BE NOT JUDGED." A. This is the basic principle. Jesus according to His style in the sermon will now go on to amplify and illustrate this statement. B. The law was written on two tables of stone. The first table of stone had the commandments that dealt with your relationship with God. 1. This is primary, it is basic. If your relation...

... I. WHOSOEVER HEARS THESE SAYINGS OF MINE AND DOES THEM. A. Again Jesus is pointing out the importance of our not just hearing, but doing the things He has commanded. 1. In Revelation 1 we read: REV 1:3 Blessed [is] he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the ...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for John 16:12
... I. "I HAVE MANY THINGS TO SAY UNTO YOU, BUT YOU CANNOT BEAR THEM NOW." A. In verse 4, He told them that He had not told them about the severe persecution that they were going to face in the beginning because He was with them. B. Note how sensitive Jesus was to their state of spiritual development. 1. There are things that we could not handle in our early spiritual development. 2. As we grow and mature in ...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Genesis 2:15-17
... "THE FALL OF MAN" I. WHAT IS MEANT BY THE FALL OF MAN? A. We read that God said, "Let us make man in our image and our likeness." We mean that man has fallen from the image of God. 1. When you look about on mankind today, you do not see him as God created him, nor how God intended him to be. 2. We mentioned that God was a superior trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, while man was an inferior trinity of ...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Nehemiah 8:8
... "SIMPLY TEACH SIMPLY." Intro. Several years ago we started Maranatha Music. The first album was made in a garage that was converted into a studio. The cost for the production of the first album was $3,500. Because of the many other constraints upon our time we had to turn over the management to others, and after a few years it was reported to us that they were losing money. As I became involved again, I discovered that they were now paying as much as $60,000, in production costs for single artist albums. What had happe...

... "1 JOHN 4:5" I. "THEY ARE OF THE WORLD, THEREFORE THEY SPEAK OF THE WORLD." A. The scriptures do present a they and we concept. The they is the world system governed by Satan. 1. John writes: 1JO 5:19 [And] we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in ...

... I. THE VARIED REACTIONS OF THE CROWDS. A. They were filled with amazement. B. They marvelled that these Galilleans were speaking in the various recognizable dialects of the wonderful works of God. C. They had questions as to what this meant. "What does this mean?" D. There are always mockers in the crowd, and this crowd is no different. They were saying that they must have found some new win...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Ephesians 6:14
... "LOINS GIRT ABOUT WITH TRUTH" Intro. In our last lesson we looked at the relevance of our loins being gird about with truth as a necessary pre-requisite for battle. I. WHAT IS TRUTH? A. This is the question asked of Jesus by Pilate. 1. I believe that it was said in a cynical way, for Pilate was living at the close of the age of philosophy when the philosophers had despaired of discoverin...
Sermon Notes on Sermon Notes for Ephesians 1:20
... I. AND SET HIM AT HIS OWN RIGHT HAND IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES. A. Not only was Jesus raised from the dead by that mighty power that is available to us as believers, but God has set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places. 1.

Verse by Verse Study on Isaiah 43-45 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... But yet, God is going to restore them. Chapter 43 gets in the restoration. But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. For I am the LORD thy God, and the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, E...
Verse by Verse Study on Genesis 8-9 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... The eighth chapter begins with the words, And God remembered Noah (Gen 8:1), Let me tell you this, God never forgot him. It is important that we realize that in the Bible, there are terms that are used for God that are anthropomorphic type terms; in other words, describing God in human language. Really it's impossible to do but we don't have anything else. We don't have the divine terms to describe God's divine character. Thus, we must define or describe God's actions and G...
Verse by Verse Study on Luke 20-21 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... We are in the final week of the life of Jesus. He is now in Jerusalem. This is the week in which pilgrims are coming from all over the world to celebrate the Feast of the Passover. He has made His triumphant entry, that is on Sunday. He was officially rejected. He did cleanse the temple, driving out the moneychangers, taking authority in His Father's house. And He taught daily in the temple, we read in verse 47 of chapter 19. So it came to pass, that on one of those days (Luk 20:1), The...
Verse by Verse Study on Hebrews 1-2 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn to the first chapter of Hebrews. There has been quite a bit of discussion as to the authorship of this book of Hebrews. And many different suggestions have been offered by different scholars. Needless to say, we don't know. There was no autograph on it. So we don't know for certain who was the author of the book of Hebrews. It is my own personal opinion that Paul the apostle was the author. It seems to have a Pauline style. However, that is only my opinion, which is worthless. It's only what God says that you can put your real confidence in...
Verse by Verse Study on Galatians 1-2 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Galatia was not a city. It was a territory. It encompassed an area that is now in Turkey. There were several churches founded by Paul in Galatia. And following Paul's evangelistic efforts through the area and the founding of many churches, there were men who came in and they began to pervert the gospel that Paul had taught, the gospel of grace. And they began to preach another gospel which is not a gospel. Because the word gospel means good news. And if you tell me that God will forgive me all of my sins and account me righteous, if I will simply believe in Jesus ...
Verse by Verse Study on Matthew 10-11 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Shall we turn now in our bibles to the tenth chapter of the gospel of Matthew? In the beginning of the tenth chapter we find Christ sending His disciples out, telling them to go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. But in the fact that He is sending them to go, in the first part of chapter ten, makes the last verse of chapter nine quite significant. For in the last verse of chapter nine, Jesus said to His disciples: "Pray ye therefore the Lord of harvest, that he will send forth labourers into His harvest" (Ma...
Verse by Verse Study on Mark 10-11 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Mark's gospel chapter 10: And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he wont [was accustomed], he taught them again (Mar 10:1). Now, Jesus is leaving the area of the Galilee for the last time. He is on His way to Jerusalem to be crucified. He knows this. He presently will be telling the disciples this. They still do not understand; it's still, to them, a mystery. But yet, it's very...
Verse by Verse Study on 1 Kings 9-16 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... First Kings chapter nine as we begin our study in the Word this evening. At the beginning of Solomon's reign, the Lord appeared unto him while he was in Gibeon, there offering sacrifices unto God. And the Lord basically said to Solomon, "Ask me whatever you want." So Solomon asked that the Lord would give him wisdom and understanding that he might govern over this glorious people of God. And God was pleased with the request that Solomon made. Because he didn't ask for riches, or the life of his enemies, or for fame, the Lord said, "Be...
Verse by Verse Study on Numbers 21-28 (C2000) — Through the Bible (C2000 Series)
... Let's turn in our Bibles to Numbers chapter twenty-one. Now the children of Israel have been in the wilderness for about thirty-nine years and they are now beginning to make their move towards the Promised Land. We're coming down to the end of this long sojourn in the wilderness. Miriam is dead. Aaron is dead. And most of those who came out of Egypt who were twenty-years old at the time they left Egypt are now dead. And as they are moving now towards the land they have, you remember circumvented Edom. Now they're coming up on the eastern side o...
