BibleTalk with Jeff Asher

07_The Parables of Jesus (The Leaven)

Jesus describes the power, the growth, and the influence of the Kingdom of Heaven under the figure of a woman preparing and kneading a batch of dough.

12_The Church of Christ Is Different Regarding Water Baptism

It is often said the Church of Christ is "different" by which is meant that it is odd or out of step with what is generally accepted by the majority. However, Jesus said that His church would be different, and that His people are to be unique. The term "different" should not be used as a pejoritve to prejudice minds. Yes, the church of Christ is different, but why is the Church of Christ different? Jeff Asher leads a series of studies to explore just that question.

34_The Fifteen Periods of Bible History (The Wilderness Wanderings Part 13)

The Bible can be divided into 15 periods of Bible History. Recognizing these divisions is helpful for organizing the Bible chronologically in the mind and relating the various books to one another. The fifth of these 15 Periods is called the Period of Wilderness Wanderings. This period extends from the turning into the Wilderness of Shur to the death of Moses on the Plains of Moab (Exodus 15:22-Deuteronomy 34:12).  [This lesson considers the events at Meribah and on the Plains of Moab.]

06_The Parables of Jesus (The Mustard Seed)

Centuries before Christ, the prophet Zechariah warned Israel not to despise the day of small things. Reminiscent of that warning Jesus describes the Kingdom of Heaven under the figure of a lone mustard seed sown in in a man's garden.  

05_The Parables of Jesus (The Wheat and Tares)

Probably the the third parable which Jesus spoke by the sea was this one about the wheat and the tares. It is the second parable for which Jesus offers additional explanation. Like the first parable, this parable is very helpful in understanding the nature of the Kingdom, and the character of the King and his subjects. 

03_The Parables of Jesus (The Sower)

The first parable Jesus spoke, if not in order certainly in importance, was the Parable of the Sower. In this parable we learn the requisite character of heart necessary to become a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven.
