17 May 2013 Exodus (Program #2)

Exodus (Program #2) – Israel Under Slavery

Exodus, the second book in the Bible begins with God’s people in a pitiful condition.  Enslaved by the evil Pharaoh and daily being killed under the tyranny of his heavy hand.  Exodus is the story of how God release His people from this bondage and it has a glorious conclusion.  The worldly people today are in a condition much like the children of Israel in Exodus.  The parallels are striking in this graphic Old Testament book of pictures.

When we come to this book, we often refer to it as a “picture book”.  We spoke a little about this in our program yesterday.  What do we mean when we say Exodus is a book of pictures?

15 May 2013 Genesis (Program #134)

Genesis (Program #134) – The Reigning Aspect of the Matured Israel (8)

We come today to our final regular program of the life study of Genesis.  We have one final look at Joseph as a full type of Christ.  We’ve said that often before.  But really what do we mean by that comparison?

14 May 2013 Genesis (Program #133)

Genesis (Program #133) – The Reigning Aspect of the Matured Israel (7)

This is our next to the last program from Genesis and soon we will be going on to the book of Romans and we certainly look forward to that.

…this particular exposition of the book of Genesis is really a spiritual classic.  We called it a life study; it’s a study in a particular sense in that we want to see how God in Christ as the spirit wants to be our life and our everything.  Especially we just like to review for our listeners, we’ve see these 9 great men in the book of Genesis – we have seen a complete picture of the believers’ experience of Christ as life for God’s eternal purpose…

13 May 2013 Genesis (Program #132)

Genesis (Program #132) – The Reigning Aspect of the Matured Israel (6)

Today we have another program dealing with the way that Joseph elected to reveal himself to his 11 brothers.  As Witness Lee begins today he once again is going to mention that with Joseph we do have these two lines: the line of the type and the line of life.  What does he mean by these two lines?

12 May 2013 Genesis (Program #131)

Genesis (Program #131) – The Reigning Aspect of the Matured Israel (5)

Our life study of Genesis today brings us once again to the end of the book, chapter 50 and our continuing examination of Joseph.

We have the interesting story today of how Joseph revealed himself to his 11 brothers. And he had not seen them for many many years…

10 May 2013 Genesis (Program #129)

Genesis (Program #129) – The Reigning Aspect of the Matured Israel (4)

Once again today our life study covers the matter of Joseph and his reigning in the final stage of his life.  This is the first part of a two part message today, where Joseph in the final stage of his experience fully typifies Christ and it’s a wonderful picture.  To summarize briefly, the story of Joseph and his brothers, emphasizing how the whole world came to be under famine and all have to come to Joseph for the supply…

08 May 2013 Genesis (Program #127)

Genesis (Program #127) – The Reigning Aspect of the Matured Israel (3)

Our life study of Genesis today will give us a full and complete picture of Christ.  As we once again examine the life of Joseph.   How is it that we’ve seen Christ in so many of the Old Testament saints in this life study of Genesis?  We are going to have another type of Christ today…

07 May 2013 Genesis (Program #126)

Genesis (Program #126) – The Reigning Aspect of the Matured Israel (2)

We are viewing once again, Joseph as a full and complete type of our Savior Christ.  How is it that we have seen Christ in so many of the Old Testament saints in this life study of Genesis?

05 May 2013 Genesis (Program #124)

Genesis (Program #124) – The Reigning Aspect of the Matured Israel (1)

Today we come back to Joseph again in the aspect of his maturity in Christ.  Joseph is a very special character in the Bible, a full type of Christ.  But one that must be seen together with his father Jacob to fully appreciate his significance.  What does this mean as we study these men of the Old Testament that we have seen so much of in this past month?

05 Feb 2013 Galatians (Program #42)

Galatians (Program #42) – Walking by the Spirit According to to the Elementary Rule to Live

Galatians 3:26 identifies us as the very sons of God through faith in Christ. That means that we have become members of God’s household or His folks we could say. We could also say this is tremendous. But by chapter 6, these sons have now become God’s prince, the Israel of God. This goes beyond tremendous, and this is also the focus of today’s life study of the Bible.
