In Christian circles the issue of Bible translations is often viewed as too confusing to really come to any solid conclusions. Among conservatives, such as in the Seventh-day Adventist denomination, the issue is a very hot topic, rather tending toward a dogma of the KJV. This presentation seeks to clarify the true issues; hopefully leading to a rational, well-founded perspective.
Two teachings in one. First the exposition of "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever," in light of "do not be carried away by varied and strange teachings;" Secondly a look at the strange teaching of the word faith movement. audio available at http://edthepastor.podbean.com/e/rain-clouds-hebrews-138-14/?token=4a3f1babca0d0e2aed88ba756f72e03e

1 and 2 Chronicles were written as the exiled nation of Israel returned after 70 years to begin rebuilding the temple. Chronicles was written to show the centrality of God and that the blessings of God require obedience to His law. The books describe many of the same events as 2 Samuel and 1 & 2 Kings but the focus in on Judah and the temple. It also describes one of the greatest acts of repentance and forgiveness in the Bible.

the most vast work transmitted to humanity through Jakob Lorber; it presents a history narrated by Jesus Christ Himself, describing Lord’s and His closed ones’ lives in the last three years of His life on earth, containing a great number of wonders, dialogues and teachings that greatly develop and enrich the records from the Gospels of Matthew and John; it also contains detailed revelations explaining essential passages from the Old and the New Testament and predictions concerning events occurring during the last 2000 years, culminating with facts that characterize the technological civilization of the XX-th Century and disclosures of a scientific nature which were validated long time after Jakob Lorber wrote about them. In the Great Gospel of John, one can practically find the essential answers to all the fundamental questions of life – these are to be found in the clear, but also extraordinary deep descriptions of the divine and human nature, of the creation and the material and spiritual evolution.

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. Last minute details…
•We talked about this being a
catch-all chapter last week
•It seems that the author is now
hurriedly throwing in several
last-minute, non-negotiable
instructions to the Hebrew reader (and us) before
quickly finishing the letter
•Last week we looked at moral directions, this
week, one last set of instructions on Faith
4. “7 Remember those who led you, who spoke the
word of God to you; and considering the result of
their conduct, imitate their faith. 8 Jesus Christ is the
same yesterday and today and forever. 9 Do not be
carried away by varied and strange teachings; for it
is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace,
not by foods, through which those who were so
occupied were not benefited. 10We have an altar
from which those who serve the tabernacle have no
right to eat. 11 For the bodies of those animals
whose blood is brought into the holy place by the
5. “high priest as an offering for sin, are burned outside
the camp. 12Therefore Jesus also, that He might
sanctify the people through His own blood, suffered
outside the gate. 13 So, let us go out to Him outside
the camp, bearing His reproach. 14 For here we do
not have a lasting city, but we are seeking the city
which is to come.”
Hebrews 13:7-14, NASB
7. “7 Remember those who led you, who spoke the
word of God to you; and considering the result of
their conduct, imitate their faith.”
“17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they
keep watch over your souls as those who will give
an account. Let them do this with joy and not with
grief, for this would be unprofitable for you.”
Hebrews 13:7,17, NASB
8. A. Follow the Leader
•Vv 7,17, there are several portions of
scripture that are uncomfortable to
teach, this is one of the most
uncomfortable
•These two verses in chapter 13 are such
for me, because of the standard that is
required of me as your pastor– if I'm
not very careful, it can sound arrogant
•James 3
9. “Let not many of you become teachers, my
brethren, knowing that as such we will incur a
stricter judgment. 2 For we all stumble in many
ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says,
he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as
well. 3 Now if we put the bits into the horses’ mouths
so that they will obey us, we direct their entire body
as well. 4 Look at the ships also, though they are so
great and are driven by strong winds, are still
directed by a very small rudder wherever the
inclination of the pilot desires. 5 So also the tongue
10. is a small part of the body, and yet it boasts of
great things.”
James 3:1-5, NASB
11. A. Follow the Leader
•If not careful here, it sounds as if I’m
demanding your respect, or
demanding you follow my every whim
•The thing that makes me able to teach
this is twofold– first because I have the
perspective of having been a ‘church
member’ before I was a preacher
•Secondly is 1 Corinthians 11:1
12. “Be imitators of me, just as I also
am of Christ.”
1 Corinthians 11:1, NASB
13. A. Follow the Leader
•It sounds almost crazy arrogant, for
Paul to write this at first glance
•But in reality, the Corinthian Believers
needed a physical example to follow
•Paul stayed with them the longest of
any of his church plants
•He knew he wasn’t perfect, and that
they had been with him long enough to
see those imperfections,
14. A. Follow the Leader
•How God dealt with him and kept him
in line, and they were able to follow
•Therefore, he didn’t hesitate to tell
them to follow his example to them
•So– for the next few moments–
pretend I’m a guest preacher and I’ll
barrel through this tough stuff!
•Here goes…
15. A. Follow the Leader
•Obey what your pastor speaks from the pulpit as
he teaches theWord of God– but at the same time
your pastor must live according to what he teaches
•Did you notice the words “conduct” in v7 and “as
those who must give account” in v17?
•For everything your pastor does, he is accountable to
God–The Lord holds him to a higher standard than
you, because he is your pastor and teacher (James 3:1)
•If you see that his conduct in words and/or deed is
right and godly, respect him and obey him, because
he is trying to imitate the Lord Jesus Christ
17. “8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and
forever. 9 Do not be carried away by varied and
strange teachings; for it is good for the heart to be
strengthened by grace, not by foods, through which
those who were so occupied were not benefited.
10We have an altar from which those who serve the
tabernacle have no right to eat. 11 For the bodies of
those animals whose blood is brought into the holy
place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are
burned outside the camp. 12Therefore Jesus also,
that He might sanctify the people through His own
18. “blood, suffered outside the gate. 13 So, let us go
out to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach.
14 For here we do not have a lasting city, but we are
seeking the city which is to come.”
Hebrews 13:8-14, NASB
19. B. Jesus, Eternal God
•Vs 8-14, this is today’s $4 seminary word,
“immutable”
•God cannot learn, grow, change, or
evolve, because He is Omniscient
•He cannot become less, more, different at all
because of His immutability
•He cannot change with time, because His the
Alpha and the Omega– before and after all!
20. B. Jesus, Eternal God
•A wise man once said, “If it’s true, it’s
not new; if it’s new, it’s not true.”
•King Solomon echoed this truth in the
Book of Ecclesiastes:
•Ecclesiastes 1:9 “That which has been is what will
be,That which is done is what will be done, And
there is nothing new under the sun.”
•There are no knew theologies or revelations that
are not already in the Bible
21. B. Jesus, Eternal God
•The entire Bible is about Jesus Christ
who died for our sins and rose again
from the dead and sat on the right
side of the Father in heaven
•No foods, religious achievements, or any of our
merits would ever be able to earn our way to
heaven
• It is only by God’s grace through Jesus Christ–
never forget it, anyone who says otherwise is
wrong, a heretic!
23. “8 For by grace you have been saved through
faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of
God; 9 not as a result of works, so that no one may
boast.”
Ephesians 2:8-9, NASB
24. B. Jesus, Eternal God
•The Jews at the time of this letter were
proud of their city and itsTemple--
which was destroyed a few years later
•But these Hebrews would come to understand
that their temple cannot be destroyed!
•This had to happen, I think, for them to recognize
no altars needed anymore
•No more need for sacrifice
25. Take Home!
1. God gave you Leaders that
love you and sacrifice for you
on a daily basis– follow their
example and leadership
2. Know that I love you. I will
continue to sacrifice for you as
long as God allows me to be
here with you
