What is the book of Ezekiel really about, and why does it matter for Christians today?

In this in-depth Bible lesson, we place Ezekiel firmly in his historical and theological context—during the Babylonian exile (605–539 BC)—and walk through his life, ministry, visions, and message. You’ll learn when and why Ezekiel prophesied, how his priestly background shaped his visions, why Jerusalem’s destruction was certain, and how God’s judgment on Israel and the nations sets the stage for future restoration. With a clear outline of the book, careful attention to redemptive history, and a Reformed approach to Scripture, this lesson helps evangelical Christians understand Ezekiel’s prophecies, the role of exile, the promises of restoration, and how God remains faithful to His covenant even in judgment.

Is the Holy Spirit Ever at Odds with the Bible?

Spirit-Led vs. Scripture-Led Christianity (Reformed Theology)

In this Bible lesson, we address a crucial theological question: Is the Holy Spirit ever at odds with Scripture? Many churches today draw a sharp distinction between being “Spirit-led” and being “Bible-led,” but Scripture itself rejects that division. From a Reformed and biblical perspective, the Holy Spirit is the divine author of Scripture, meaning He never contradicts what He has already revealed through the prophets and apostles.

Using passages such as 2 Timothy 3:16–17, 2 Peter 1:21, 1 John 4:1, and Ephesians 2, this lesson explains why the sufficiency of Scripture is essential to true Christian faith and why claims of new revelation must always be tested by God’s written Word. We also discuss spiritual experience, emotion in worship, proper application of Scripture, and the difference between Spirit-led obedience and binding the conscience beyond what Scripture commands.

This teaching is especially relevant for Christians navigating charismatic claims, questions about ongoing revelation, and confusion over what it truly means to be led by the Holy Spirit. If you care about biblical authority, Reformed theology, and faithfulness to God’s Word, this lesson is for you.

What is the Book of Lamentations really about, and why does it matter for Christians today?

In this in-depth Bible lesson, we explore Lamentations—Jeremiah’s lament over the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 BC—and uncover its enduring theological meaning for the church. From covenant judgment and God’s sovereignty to pastoral suffering, church discipline, and longing for Christ’s return, this lesson traces how Lamentations points forward to Jesus, the heavenly Jerusalem, and the church’s place in a hostile world. Rooted in Reformed hermeneutics and biblical theology, this teaching is especially helpful for evangelicals, Presbyterians, pastors, elders, and serious students of Scripture who want to understand how the Old Testament speaks Christ-centrically to the life of the church today.
