    Lesson # 1 Introduction to the Bible

    Even though the Bible was written by over 40 different writers over many years, there are no contradictions. The Bible writes perfectly harmonizes with each other because they were all inspired by God Almighty. It is interesting to know that the purpose, for which the Bible was given, is to demonstrate…

    • Great! This is a clear proof that the author of of the Bible is not man. If it was man, there will be a lot of contradictions.

      • And more over, apart from a few writers especially in the New Testament, majority of the writers never met each other. Daniel didn’t meet Moses, Nehemiah never met David. Isaiah never knew Elijah, and so was it with the other prophets, yet the harmonization of their prophecy about one man Jesus, is evident that, the content of their texts is…

        MODULE 3: Jacob’s Exile

        SESSION 12: Jacob at the Gate of Heaven

        Yaaqov’s response subtly twists God’s promise of blessing and presence into a bargaining arrangement. Yaaqov seeing the gate of Heaven in a dream points to an awareness of heavenly realities not accessible to our conscious senses. Jesus envisions himself as the ramp that…

        MODULE 2 : SESSION 11: Parting of the Brothers

        The separation of Yaaqov and Esau resounds with notes of the Cain and Abel theme, but with many inversions and surprises. Rivqah indeed receives the curse for her scheming with Yaaqov when she says goodbye to her beloved son, never to see him again. Esau, in his anger, is set on analogy to…

        MODULE 2: SESSION 10: Isaac Blesses Jacob

        The scenes of Yaaqov and Esau asking blessing from their father are constructed to mirror each other: Yaaqov’s deception and blessing reflects Esau’s revelation of the truth and non-blessing. Yitskhaq introduces new vocabulary to the Eden blessing theme. Esau’s non-blessing links him to previous…

      • MODULE 1: Session 1 - What On Earth is the Hebrew Bible?

        I am glad to know that Jesus was raised by the Old Testament and his disciples were exposed to the same Bible. Jesus was so knowledgeable in this Hebrew Bible that, a number of times he responded to questions thrown at him by the phrase “have you not read?” or “it is written”. Each time he made such statements, he did refer his audience to…

        MODULE 3: SESSION 12: Joseph the Wise Deliverer of Egypt

        Yoseph is lifted out of the pit, shaved, and given a whole new set of garments. In the Bible, shaving often marks a transition between two phases of life or states of being. The doubling in Pharaoh’s dream points to one reality confirmed by God, giving us further insight into the…

        MODULE 3: SESSION 11: Dreamers in Pharaoh’s Prison

        The theme of dreams and visions in Genesis is foundational to later apocalyptic literature and emphasizes the important role of dreams in the world of the biblical authors. A three-day period often indicates that the theme of testing appears nearby in the narrative. The Yoseph story…

        • You are welcome Sir

          • Sure, opening of our understanding to the Biblical verses is what leads us to the wisdom that salvation is available for the grab by believing in the sufferings, crucifixion, or death and resurrection of Jesus. This is what Paul told his protege Timothy in 2 Tim 3:14-15 that the knowledge of scriptures is to make one wise (Revelation)…

            MODULE 3: SESSION 10: Joseph and Potiphar’s Wife

            Yoseph acts as both the forbidden tree and the human who must listen to God’s voice and pass the test. Biblical authors use keywords to evoke earlier stories while being dynamic in how they form the analogies. Potiphar’s wife, who seeks illicit sex for personal pleasure, is set in…

          • Lesson 9: Surviving Opposition from Within.

            It is important to know that satan will oppose anything you are doing for God. His assignment is to ridicule Gids work like he dud in the days of Nehemiah through sanballat and Tobias.

            Satan operates in the following ways:

            – He introduces opposition to leaders, he introduced subtle strategies…

            • Satan’s sole mission is to oppose God’s work! So anyone working for the glory of God should be ready for Satan’s opposition.

              • Well said. The holy fear of God, sense of purpose and a clear vision of one’s future are the unfailing tools to triumph over the above satanic strategies.
