Romans 12:6-8
Members of a football team have different responsibilities according to the positions they play. The quarterback calls plays, passes the ball, and hands it off as the offensive line blocks the defenders. The tailback runs the ball whie the recievers run patterns and catch passes. Likewise, Dr. Barnhouse explains, the members of Christ's church have different roles and spiritual responsibilities which must be fulfilled...
Romans 12:6
Children love to wake up on Christmas morning to see a diverse assortment of gifts under the tree ready to open and enjoy. It has pleased our heavenly Father to give us, His children, a diversity of spiritual gifts in order to build up and strengthen the body of Christ. What are these spiritual gifts and how can we learn to identify and exercise them for our mutual benefit and edification? Dr. Barnhouse explores this on...
Romans 12:4-5
Your stomach cannot pump blood throughout your body if your heart stops working. And if your eyes go blind, you cannot see with your toes. You cannot function properly unless every part of your body fulfills its unique and essential purpose. Believers are members of the Body of Christ and when we exercise our particular spiritual gifts, serve one another, and work together with unity of purpose, the church can functio...
Romans 12:5
Believers often gather and sing the hymn, "They will know we are Christians by our love". But sadly, Christians are sometimes known for our fighting, quarreling and bitterness. Disunity and division in the church severely damages our witness for Jesus Christ before a watching world. How can we advance the Kingdom of God through authentic Christian love and fellowship in the gospel? Dr. Barnhouse explains on Dr. Barnhous...
Romans 12:5
Imagine a new believer looking for a church in the yellow pages. He will see names like Presbyterian, Baptist, Roman Catholic, Methodist, Pentecostal, Lutheran, Episcopal, and perhaps a few others. He might wonder which is the right church? Much confusion has arisen because people fail to distinguish between the organized, institutional churches and the Church founded by the Lord Jesus Christ, made up of His genuine fol...
Romans 12:4
When you mention the word "church," many people think of a building with a cross and a steeple. Others might think of a particular denomination or religious organization. But the church is a building not made of bricks and cement, but of living stones. It is not an organization but an organism; a spiritual body comprised of born again believers around the world. Dr. Barnhouse asks the probing question, "Are you a genuin...
Romans 12:3
The Bible says that a man looks at the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart. Jesus told of a Pharisee who appeared righteous and godly, yet was filled with pride and self righteousness. But God had mercy on a tax collector whose heart was humbled, broken and contrite over his many sins. Dr. Barnhouse teaches that the path of humility and reverence before God is the path of rich blessing, and spiritual growth o...
Romans 12:2
When a nation loses a war, their defeat is shown by their surrender to the enemy forces and submission to their terms. But in the spiritual realm, surrender and submission is the path to victory. God offers peace with Himself to rebelious sinners through the death of His Son and we can experience spiritual triumph when we trust in Jesus Christ and yield to HIs lordship. Dr. Barnhouse shares this good news on Dr. Barnhou...
Romans 12:2
Every baby wants his own way and cries when he does not get it. We are all bom with a nature that wants to be gratified and we continue following our selfish desires into adulthood. But when the Lord brings us to salvation, He begins a lifelong process of growing us toward spiritual maturity. How does God transform rebellious sinners into His obedient children who live in yielded submission to Jesus Christ? Find out on ...
Romans 12:1
In the 1960's, many young Americans rebelled against a society and culture that had largely been shaped by Christian values. This led to a decade of non-conformist counter culture. But the Bible teaches that we are to refuse to conform to the world. Dr. Barnhouse poses the question, "Are you being transformed daily by the renewing of your mind?" on Dr. Barnhouse & the Bible.
Romans 12:1
According to the Bible, the first and greatest commandment is to love the Lord Your God with all of your heart, mind, soul, and strength. True worship, pleasing and acceptable to God, flows from a sincere heart that loves God and is overflowing with gratitude for His redeeming love and grace. Do you go through the motions, or is your worship energized by love and thankfulness to God? Dr. Barnhouse teaches about intellig...
Romans 12:1
When the angel appeared to Joseph and announced the birth of the Savior, he said, "You shall call his name Jesus for He shall save His people from their sins." But sadly, many people seem to want Jesus to save them in their sin rather than from them. Are you pursuing a life that is dominated by the Spirit of God? Tune in to Dr. Barnhouse and the Bible for more.
Romans 12:1
The Bible exhorts us to present our bodies as living sacrifices, holy and acceptable to God. But as one Christian writer observes, "The problem with a living sacrifice is that it keeps crawling off the altar." How can we learn to lay aside our sinful, self-centered desires and yield ourselves fully to the Lord? Tune in to Dr. Barnhouse and the Bible to find out.
Romans 12:1
Many people assume that the teachings of Jesus Christ form the basis of Christianity. But this is a serious error. Christianity is not merely a set of teachings and principles -- it is a person. The essence of Christianity is Jesus Christ himself and his redemptive work on behalf of needy sinners. Dr. Barnhouse asks, "Is Christ at the center of your Christianity?"
Romans 12:1
When you study the Bible and come across the word, "therefore", it is always a good idea to ask, "What is it there for?" When the Apostle Paul uses the word "therefore" at the beginning of chapter 12, we must realize he is building on what he's taught in previous chapters. Listen to Dr. Barnhouse to find out how Paul's prior instruction lays a solid foundation for Christian ethics and godly living on Dr. Barnhouse and t...
Romans 11:23, 24
The Gospel of John declares that Jesus came unto His own, but His own did not receive Him. The religious leaders and the people of Israel overwhelmingly rejected their Messiah and today the majority of Jews continue to reject Him. Will Israel continue in unbelief or will there come a day when they acknowledge Jesus Christ as their Messiah and King and be restored? Find out on Dr. Barnhouse and the Bible.
Romans 11:19-22
In the days following Peter's sermon on Pentecost, the church was almost exclusively made up of Jews who believed in Jesus as their Messiah. But ever since Peter preached the gospel to Cornelius and his family, Gentile believers have made up the overwhelming majority of God's redeemed people. Does national Israel still have a role to play in God's plan for the future? Listen to Dr. Barnhouse to find out on Dr. Barnh...
Romans 11:16-18
You may wish you could be related to some famous person, but you cannot simply graft yourself into that person's family tree. And yet, God has grafted Gentile believers into the spiritual family tree of Abraham. If you believe in Jesus Christ, you too are a part of the olive tree made up of Jews and Gentiles throughout history who have trusted in the Lord for salvation. Dr. Barnhouse shares this encouraging message ...
Romans 11:12, 15
Middle East peace summits have discussed the possibility of Israel surrendering territory to the Palestinians or the surrounding Arab nations in exchange for peace. But the Bible suggests something quite different. God has declared that he will expand Israel far beyond its current borders into much of today's Arab world. What does God's word teach about Israel's restoration? Tune in to Dr. Barnhouse and the Bible t...
Romans 11:11-15
A star baseball player will not be cut from the team if he is injured. The manager can keep him on the bench as a pinch hitter and get a player from the Minor Leagues to fill his position. If they win the World Series, both players will be champions. God has not cast off Israel, but has set them aside for a time so that the Gentiles might receive the riches of salvation in Jesus Christ. Dr. Barnhouse preaches about ...
