Biblical Study

God loves Israel. You can find proof throughout the entire Bible. He chose Israel and set them apart to be His own people. The Bible uses various metaphors to describe this love: God calls Israel His firstborn son, and through the prophets, He also calls Israel His bride. In this reading plan, we invite you to join us as we dive deeper into God’s love for Israel.

Have you ever wondered about the wonderful ways that faith and love can enhance your life?

Here, we have the opportunity to observe the profound benefits of faith and love.

[The Epistle of Philemon] Rewards of Faith and Love

Martha of Bethany is often remembered as the worried and busy sister—the one who complains instead of sitting at Jesus’ feet. When we look at her holistically in Scripture, however, we see a beautiful progression that is worth emulating. In “Becoming Like Martha,” author Heather Kaufman expands our view of Martha by examining the three times she’s mentioned in Scripture, tracing her journey into a strong woman of faith.

Written primarily by Solomon, Proverbs is a collection of axioms and teachings on practical living. The book emphasizes the fear of the Lord as the beginning of wisdom and often contrasts wisdom and foolishness. Proverbs prefigures Christ as the embodiment of True Wisdom, in whose sacrificial death and glorious resurrection is life and favor from the Lord (Proverbs 8:35).

Written by Paul in prison, Ephesians beautifully describes the vast reality of the gospel. Chosen before the foundation of the earth, God’s eternal plan of redemption takes spiritually dead men and women and raises them to life in Christ.
