This is an open-discussion, Christian bible study where we love, learn, and laugh. We read the Word and grow together. We put our focus into learning and speaking from the heart, with God as our foundation, as opposed to being religious and traditional--ergo, anyone asks questions, and we all get to find the specific topics in the bible and gain understanding of exactly what the scripture means. Hosts: Myreah Eley, Marcus "caDASHtrophe" Eley, Vickey Davis, Tyeesha Davis eleybiblestudy.com el ...

The Word became lesh and dwelt among us. John 1:14 God became a man in Christ Jesus. The body of Jesus was like ours. He grew in strength—from a baby, to a child, to a man—and He knew what it was like to be hungry, thirsty, and weary. The first heresy, the first false teaching that the early church had to contend with, was not the denial that Jesus…

Today we delve into an enlightening discussion on the essence of the Christian life—that it is God's work in which we become involved, rather than our work in which He becomes involved.

“Show me Your glory.” These words not only ended our last episode of OOBT but are also the ones we pick back up with today as well. Not only does Moses have the opportunity to see God’s glory, but he also comes back down from Mt. Sinai with a radiant face from spending time in God’s presence. Wow! Just wow. We also hear the words God used to descri…

The LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. and the man became a living creature. Genesis 2:7 God made the body of Adam from the dust of the ground, and then He breathed the breath of life into this body. So, Adam was the union of a body and a soul. This is the reason that the Bible sometim…

"It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega. the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment."

In Galatians Chapter 5, verse 6, we read that faith's true essence is revealed through actions of love rather than faith alone. But why is this distinction so vital? Pastor Colin explores the significance of faith that manifests itself through love, emphasizing that without love, faith is simply not authentic. We'll discover that Christ-like faith …

I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. Revelation 21:2 There will be no marriage in heaven (Matt. 22:30), but we will still be male and female, because that is how God created us and it was good. The gift of marriage was given to point to something greater that God has in…

In this broadcast, Pastor Colin delves into the importance of actively engaging with the scripture as it's the fundamental means by which God communicates with us. At the heart of the preaching ministry is the firm belief that God blesses His own words, not ours. As followers of Christ, we're encouraged to come to the Bible expectantly, ready to be…

“But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with ire and sulfur. which is the second death."

Today, Pastor Colin illuminates the importance of how we listen to God's Word, proposing that the manner in which we engage with scripture is reflective of our relationship with God.

"Behold, I am making all things new." Revelation 21:5 Life in the new heaven and new earth will not be less than the life you have now. It will be more! The word "new" can be used in two ways. The first is to say, “I’m moving to a new house.” You are in a different place, and there is no continuity between your old house and your new house. The sec…

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth. Revelation 21:1 Satan’s master strategy is to have people think that what lies ahead will be far less than what we have now. He wants you to believe that your life would be less if it were in God’s hands. If you believe the life you have now is better than the future life you will have in the presence of God…

It's wonderful to have you with us as we delve into the essence of faith and its role in our justification. Pastor Colin explains that faith is the profound bond that unites us to Jesus Christ.

"They. are like angels in heaven." Mark 12:25 In what way will we be like the angels in heaven?
