BibleTalk with Jeff Asher

Amos 3:9-4:5

The Lion has roared! Judgment is upon Israel. God has revealed His intent to His prophet Amos. It is time to announce His purpose to the nations that Samaria will be destroyed, nothing will be left, the altars at Dan and Bethel are to be torn down.

Even as Abraham...So Then They Which Be of Faith...

Paul contniues to defend the Gospel he preached in Galatians 3:6-9. Having shown that His Gospel was attended with the confirming signs of an Apostle and the ministry of the Spirit to the Galatians, he now establishes that the blessing to Abraham only can come through faith and not the works of the Law.

The Wonders of Calvary: The Act of Crucifixion

Jeff Asher discusses the crucifixion of Jesus from the perspective of OT prophecy and how the act of crucifying Jesus confirms that He is indeed the Messiah, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. 

Amos 2:4-8

Jeff Asher discusses the judgment announced on Judah and Israel by the prophet Amos with a application found in Romans chapters one through three. Herein is the answer to Paul's rhetorical question: "Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? Certainly not, for then how shall God judge the world?" 

Received Ye the Spirit by the Works of the Law, or By the Hearing of Faith?

Jeff Asher considers Galatians 3:1-5 focusing on the answer to the question which Paul raises in this text. The emphasis in the study is on the context which is Paul's defense of the truth of the Gospel which he received and preached by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

The Ideal Family

This is probably unlike any approach to this subject you undertaken before. Is there an ideal, perfect model for the family in Scripture? Yes, it is the Heavenly Family.

Amos1:3-2:3

Jeff Asher discusses God's judgment upon the nations surrounding Judah and Israel. Jehovah's longsuffering is at an end, "for three trangressions and four I will not turn away the punishment thereof..." What do these things mean to us today?

Justified by Faith (Galatians 2:16-21)

Jeff Asher considers the Golden Text of Galatians wherein Paul affims justification by faith apart from the works of the Law. So many do not understand what Paul is talking about. Does justification by faith require obedience to Christ? 

By What Authority?

Jeff Asher discusses the nature of authority and why it is important in spiritual matters. 

Introduction to Amos (1:1-2)

Jeff Asher introduces the Book of Amos. Jeff gives the historical background and setting of the book explaining that Jehovah has roared from Zion against the altar at Bethel. Israel must prepare to meet their God.
