This document discusses the relationship between archaeology and the Bible. It states that archaeology can prove places and people in the Bible existed and provide background, but cannot prove the events happened or validate miracles. While archaeological finds generally support the biblical record, faith is still required. Examples are given of archaeological discoveries that confirm cities and empires mentioned in the Bible. The preservation of scripture is argued to have been divinely overseen based on examples like the Dead Sea Scrolls. Overall the document aims to show how archaeology corroborates the reliability of the Bible.

The document discusses the origins and meaning of baptism. It notes that the Greek word "baptizo" means "to immerse" and references scholars from different religious backgrounds and the Reformers. It advocates completely immersing candidates for baptism in water, as was likely instituted by Christ, to properly symbolize the sacrament.

The document discusses how churches can adapt to cultural changes and better fulfill their mission. It argues that churches should move towards a model of smaller "oikos environments" or missional communities based on the extended family model seen in the New Testament. This would allow the church to meet people's growing needs for community while also spreading the message of Jesus through intimate, personal relationships as the early Christians did by gathering in both temples and homes.

Paul and Barnabas return to cities they previously visited - Lystra, Iconium and Antioch - to strengthen the disciples and encourage them to remain faithful despite hardships. They appoint elders in each church and commit the churches to God through prayer and fasting before departing. They travel through several other cities, including Perga and Attalia, preaching the word. Upon returning to Antioch, they report to the church all that God accomplished through them in opening the door of faith to the Gentiles.
Pauls 2nd Mission Journey
Paul embarked on his second missionary journey, splitting from Barnabas and traveling with Silas through Asia Minor, strengthening churches. They received a call from Macedonia in Troas and preached in Philippi, Thessalonica, Berea, and Athens before spending 18 months in Corinth, where he worked, preached, and wrote 1 Thessalonians. He appeared before Gallio in Corinth and later left Aquila and Priscilla in Ephesus before returning to Antioch.

Sabbath school lesson 6, 3rd quarter of 2018
Peter fulfilled Jesus' command to strengthen the brethren by travelling to different places to minister. This included performing healings, preaching to Gentiles despite being a Jew, and helping the early church accept Gentile converts. As the church grew, some believers had to flee persecution in Jerusalem but preached to Jews and Gentiles in other areas. In Antioch, many Gentiles converted to Christianity for the first time, though the church still struggled to fully accept Gentile converts. Further persecution by Herod led to the death of the apostle James and imprisonment of Peter, worrying the church, but God answered their prayers by freeing Peter.

James
The document discusses the Book of James and the authorship, dating, audience, purpose, and structure of the letter. It notes that there were five different men named James in the New Testament, but the author of the Book of James was likely James, the brother of Jesus. The date of the letter is uncertain but was likely written between AD 40-62 to Jewish Christians dispersed outside of Palestine. The letter has a sermon-like structure and emphasizes practical moral teachings rather than theology.

It also describes the burial tomb where Jesus was laid and the earthquake and angel that appeared there after his resurrection. The document provides lessons about Jesus' community being naturally supernatural, both ancient/future and old/new as Jesus appointed women as the first apostles, and about multiplication as Jesus commanded his disciples to make disciples of all nations.

Paul was traveling to Rome to stand trial before Caesar after being arrested in Jerusalem. He faced many dangers along the journey, including a two-week long storm at sea that shipwrecked the boat near Malta. Though promised by an angel that all would survive, they had to cooperate by eating, helping one another, and not killing the prisoners. In Malta, Paul was bitten by a poisonous snake but was unharmed, astonishing the locals. After three months, they continued on to Rome, where Paul preached the gospel for two years while awaiting trial under house arrest.
Acts; Chapter 14
The document provides a detailed summary of Acts 13-14 from the Bible. It describes how Paul and Barnabas were sent out as the first missionary team by the church in Antioch. They preached in various cities including Salamis, Paphos, Pisidian Antioch, Iconium, Lystra, and Derbe. They faced opposition from Jews in some areas but had success converting Gentiles. After completing their journey, Paul and Barnabas returned to strengthen the new believers and appoint elders in the churches before reporting back to Antioch.

BIG CHURCH 05 - BIG MOVE - PTR. JOSEPH FERMIN - 10AM MORNING SERVICE
The early church was divided on whether Gentile believers needed to be circumcised. Paul and Barnabas were sent to Jerusalem to discuss this with the apostles and elders. At a council, Peter argued that God had accepted Gentiles through faith alone, as shown by giving them the Holy Spirit, and they should not be burdened with Jewish laws. The council agreed and sent a letter to Gentile churches saying to abstain from idolatry, sexual immorality, meat from strangled animals, and blood, but not requiring circumcision. The churches were joyous about this encouraging message of acceptance.

The document provides tips for creating effective PowerPoint presentations. Some key points include:
- Use PowerPoint to interact with your audience and keep them engaged rather than putting them to sleep.
- Use a light text on dark background color scheme and only change colors on certain emphasis slides. Stick to colors that are pleasing and match your business brand if applicable.
- Keep bullet points concise with just major points and never read directly from slides. Limit bullets to 5 per slide and include additional in new slides.
- Use clip art sparingly to help illustrate points without needing explanation but be careful of animated gifs. Try not to reuse the same clips.
- Customize backgrounds and color schemes

Apologetic External evidence for the existence of Jesus
This document discusses the search for the historical Jesus and perspectives on his identity. It references several authors and their works on this topic, such as Evidence for the Historical Jesus by Josh McDowell and Bill Wilson. The document examines debates around whether Jesus can be considered simply a righteous man or held more divine titles like the Son of God. It also references ancient sources like Pliny the Younger's letter to Trajan that describe early Christians and their beliefs. Overall, the document explores scholarly discussions on establishing what can be known about the historical Jesus from ancient sources.
Prophecies In The Bible
This document presents evidence that Jesus fulfilled prophecies from the Old Testament about the Messiah. It summarizes several prophecies concerning Jesus' birthplace in Bethlehem, manner of death by crucifixion, and resurrection after death. The document argues that Jesus uniquely fulfilled hundreds of specific prophecies, showing he was more than a great teacher but was the Son of God as claimed. It encourages the reader to personally accept Jesus into their life.

This document discusses studying Jesus outside the New Testament. It was once thought Jesus could not be known historically or that such knowledge was not important for faith. However, over the past 20 years scholarship has made progress. Archaeological discoveries and studies of Jewish and Greco-Roman literature have provided new context. Jesus can now be understood historically and must be assessed to explain the period he lived in. Sources outside the New Testament, like classical and Jewish writings, shed light on Jesus, though they do not replace the Gospels. Studying these sources contributes to understanding Jesus and the development of early Christianity.

Chapter 1
This document provides an overview of systematic theology. It defines systematic theology as the study of God and His relationship to the universe in a systematic way. While God is beyond full human comprehension, He has chosen to reveal truths about Himself through Scripture and other means. Systematic theology examines what can be rationally known about God and discusses key theological concepts and doctrines in an organized manner. It relies on biblical, historical, philosophical and other studies and seeks to understand both the original meaning of theological truths as well as their enduring, timeless principles.

Biblical Archaeology session 2
This document discusses the relationship between archaeology and the Bible. It explains that archaeology can confirm and clarify details in the Bible, as well as complement our understanding by providing historical context. As an example, it discusses how early evidence of domesticated camels, which some critics used to argue against references to camels in Genesis, has now been found through archaeology. The document explores other findings, like ancient Mesopotamian creation tablets, king lists, and artifacts that relate to biblical persons, places or events. It argues that while archaeology cannot prove the Bible, it has generally supported the historicity of biblical narratives where evidence is available.
What Evidences Do You Have That The Bible is the Word of God
The document discusses evidence that the Bible is the word of God. It provides 3 key pieces of evidence:
1) Prophecy - The Bible contains over 2000 specific prophecies that have been fulfilled, such as prophecies about Egypt no longer having Egyptian rulers and the destruction of Babylon.
2) Survival - No other book has faced such intense attacks to be destroyed yet over 24,000 manuscripts of the New Testament still exist today.
3) Archaeology - Archaeological discoveries like the Dead Sea Scrolls have confirmed the accuracy of the Bible manuscripts.
Adam When?
Can we know, with complete accuracy, the timetable of the past, all the way back to Adam and the creation of the earth? This book presumes to do so, utilizing the very safe principle that the
Bible is infallible in all that it says. Once the Bible is properly understood, it becomes a fountainhead of truth which can help dramatically in our understanding many puzzling and often seemingly unsolvable mysteries in the scientific evidence.
The Bible not only agrees with the evidence produced by the scientist, but actually helps us to interpret phenomena such as the paucity of elements in ocean solution and the scarcity of ocean
floor sediments. It shows us that the creation date was 11,013 B.C., the flood date 4990 B.C., and that the continental division must have occurred about 3153 B.C.
Moreover, by inter-relating the scientific data with that of the Bible, we discover that the pre-flood climate was perhaps 10-15°F. warmer than today, while the immediate post-flood climate was 10-15°F. cooler than today, thus offering a reason for the onset of the Ice Age.

L3 Archaeology & the Bible
Archaeology is the study of material remains from the past to gain insight into historical events and cultures. Biblical archaeology began in the 19th century to provide evidence for the accuracy of the Bible. Key figures who pioneered biblical archaeology include Edward Robinson, William Albright, and Kathleen Kenyon. While archaeology has illuminated the Bible lands and times, it cannot prove or disprove the theological claims of the Bible since its purpose is historical understanding, not confirmation of faith. Christians should be interested in archaeology as it helps avoid errors and better understand God and his world.
Understanding The Bible Part Three Literal, Poetic, Symbolic, And Histori...
Part Three examines selected biblical stories which are better understood using the historical-critical method rather than the literal, fundamentalist approach.
How Archaeology Illuminates the Bible
This document discusses how archaeology can illuminate the Bible. It begins by stating that archaeology helps illuminate why the Bible is reliable, rather than proving it. It discusses the role of biblical theology and biases in liberal scholarship. Key archaeological findings that correspond to the Bible are presented, such as Hittite treaties matching Deuteronomy and price of slaves matching Exodus. It addresses textual criticism of the Old and New Testaments. Overall, it argues that archaeology bears witness to the truthfulness of the Bible, though cannot prove it, and we should not be daunted by skeptical interpretations of evidence.
10 top archaeology discoveries
The Nag Hammadi texts were discovered in 1945 by Egyptian farmers in Nag Hammadi, Egypt. The texts were contained in 13 leather-bound codices dated to the mid-4th century CE. The codices contain over 50 early Christian texts associated with Gnostic sects, providing new insights into diverse beliefs in early Christianity. The discovery and publication of the texts was a long process, with the manuscripts changing hands several times before most were confiscated by the Egyptian government. An international team of scholars led by James Robinson eventually gained access and published translations, bringing these important texts to wider attention.
Studies about the bible part 5
The document discusses several ways that the Bible has been shown to be scientifically accurate through archaeological findings and modern scientific discoveries:
1) The Bible indicated centuries ago that the earth is round and hangs in space, not supported by pillars as many ancient civilizations believed.
2) References in the Bible from thousands of years ago accurately described ocean currents and the second law of thermodynamics showing the universe is running down, things modern science has only discovered recently.
3) Archaeological evidence has been found that supports biblical figures and events like King David and the Great Flood, while disproving other religious texts like the Book of Mormon. Skeptics who tried to disprove the Bible ended up converting after their own archaeological
they changed the word in the bible
The document discusses various topics related to biblical translations including:
- Differences between the Textus Receptus and other ancient manuscripts like Codex B and the Sinaitic text.
- The development of translations like the King James Version, Latin Vulgate, and others.
- Concerns about more modern translations like the NIV, TNIV, and Good News Bible changing or removing words and verses.
- Biographical details of textual critics Westcott and Hort who produced an influential Greek text that departed from the Textus Receptus.
- Warnings against adding to or removing from the words of Scripture.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.

The reliability of the bible
- 2. From the Council for British Archaeology: “Archaeology is the study of the material remains and environmental effects of human behaviour: evidence which can range from buried cities to microscopic organisms and covers all periods.... Archaeology links with many subjects, including geography, history, social sciences, maths, physics, biology, chemis try, art, religion, and technology”
- 3. What can it do? › Prove that places and people in Bible history existed › Provide some background to the Bible records What it can’t do › Prove that the history actually happened › Prove that the miracles of Bible history occurred
- 4. Does support the biblical record BUT FAITH is still required on the part of a believer Of course, if archaeological finds contradicted the Bible, it could undermine faith! This has never happened, however
- 5. Great cities and empires mentioned in the Bible, have been found and their grandeur revealed, through the labours of the archaeologist
- 6. Here are just a few of the places which once the critics denied existed, but which the spade of the archaeologist has uncovered....
- 15. Whilst researching for this talk, I found the following website by a certain Professor Keith N. Schoville, listing as he sees it, the top 10 Archaeological findings of biblical interest in the 20th Century......
- 16. The importance of this find cannot be overstressed. As we just read, every book of the Hebrew scriptures, our Old Testament, is represented, except for the short book of Esther. This find had the ability to make or break the reliability of scripture. Either it had been reliably preserved during the 1,000 years the scrolls take us back, or it had not!
- 17. Having looked at these examples, you can see just how amazingly well preserved these scriptures are! Due to lack of vowel points in the Dead Sea scrolls, as supplied in the Masoretic text, there are many interesting variant readings HOWEVER, THE PRESERVATION OF SCRIPTURE HAS BEEN DIVINELY OVERSEEN!!
- 18. The Galilee boat. › Known colloquially as “The Jesus boat” (Turn to top 10 website for info) (Turn to computer animation of Jesus Boat)
- 20. The bullae of Baruch, Jeremiah’s scribe (turn to top 10 site)
- 23. Mounts Ebal & Gerizim – the Mts of blessing and cursing!
- 24. We have looked at just a few examples of the amazing finds of the Archaeologist, which support Bible history They help to make Bible history live, to make it real for us They show us how reliable the Bible is WHAT YOU NOW NEED TO DO IS TO STUDY IT, SO AS TO FIND A PURPOSE IN LIFE AND A CERTAIN HOPE FOR THE FUTURE. GOD BLESS YOU IN THIS!
