Numerous scholars have argued that Leviticus 18:18 prohibits not just sororal polygyny (a polygamous marriage between a man and two women who are sisters) but polygamy generally. In this video, we unpack the historical and textual evidence that supports this view. We also address a polygamy advocate's objections to this interpretation.
During his second missionary journey, as Paul is passing through the city of Athens, he is allowed the opportunity to speak to the philosophers and Greek intellectuals there. Luke’s account in Acts 17:16-34 of what happened in Athens gives us some insights into how we might be effective witnesses for Yeshua when we interact with those who have very different beliefs from our own.
“Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord” (Ephesians 5:22). If you just read that verse out loud, then you might hear a faint, high-pitched noise. That sound is every feminist worldwide shrieking about how Christianity oppresses women. But is this instruction in Ephesians really oppressive toward women?
In Matthew 24:20, Yeshua’s admonished his followers in Jerusalem and Judea to pray that they wouldn’t have to flee in winter or on the Sabbath during the coming Roman war. Why did Yeshua tell his followers to pray that they wouldn’t have to flee on the Sabbath? What might be some implications of this instruction?
As we learned in the first part of this teaching, the Bible does not support replacing Sabbath observance with Sunday observance. So, how did this change occur? How did we get to where we are now, with most Christians not keeping the Sabbath on the seventh day? This teaching will attempt to answer that question.
Women have been oppressed, taken advantage of, and even limited in Kingdom work throughout history and even into today. But setting aside worldly culture and religious tradition, what does the Bible actually teach regarding the value and role of women in ministry and gospel work? Join me and Pd Vander Westhuizen in this lively discussion regarding God’s will for women.
What does the Bible say about drinking alcohol? We will look at this topic from two angles. First, we will see if there are any commandments concerning the consumption of alcohol. Second, we will see if the Bible offers us any wisdom regarding the consumption of alcohol, whether it is encouraged or discouraged.
