    Watchman Report:#26 Calling all Christians, Choose Christ not Creed's! (19.33 min)

    A @Christadelphians Video: Description: If humans have immortal souls, what is the point of resurrection? The Bible is opened to discuss what God’s view of the human after-life is like. This thought-provoking Bible Talk presents an insightful and expositional examination of a core Christian doctrine: the resurrection of the dead. In this revealing report, we confront a widespread departure from biblical truth within modern Christendom. Are popular teachings about death and the afterlife based on the Bible or on human tradition? We go directly to the Scriptures to uncover the outstanding hope God offers through a future resurrection, a promise underwritten by the God who created us. This outstanding presentation clarifies what the Bible truly says about the state of the dead, the timing of judgment, and the wonderful hope of immortality granted only through Christ. Join us for this foundational study.*Chapters / Timestamps:*00:00 - Introduction: Examining Departure from Bible Truth00:48 - The Promise of Resurrection in Daniel02:06 - The Reliability of Scripture02:58 - Dying in Faith Without Receiving Promises04:12 - First Century Errors & Modern Misunderstandings05:32 - Judgment Follows Resurrection, Not Death06:47 - The Practical Example of Lazarus08:01 - Preaching Resurrection to a Pagan World09:07 - Christ: The First Fruits of Resurrection10:42 - The Critical Importance of Resurrection for Faith11:36 - The Origin of the "Immortal Soul" Teaching13:22 - The State of the Dead: Thoughts Perish14:43 - The True Christian Comfort in Death16:11 - The Importance of Correct Timing17:14 - The Charge to Preach Sound Doctrine17:55 - Conclusion: Resurrection is the Only Hope*Bible Verses Featured:*📖 Daniel 12:2📖 2 Peter 1:20-21📖 Hebrews 11:13📖 Matthew 22:29-30📖 2 Corinthians 5:10📖 John 11:43-44📖 Acts 17:31-32📖 1 Corinthians 15:20-21📖 1 Corinthians 15:16-18📖 Psalm 146:3-4📖 1 Thessalonians 4:13-14📖 2 Timothy 2:17-18📖 2 Timothy 4:1-3bible study, resurrection, state of the dead, biblical truth, watchman report, bible prophecy, gospel truth, christian doctrine, immortality, judgment, sound doctrine, biblical teaching

  2. Thought for March 4th. “I WILL BE SANCTIFIED.”

    4H AGO

    Thought for March 4th. “I WILL BE SANCTIFIED.”

    Today’s readings.. (Leviticus 9,10), (Psalm 108,109), (2 Corinthians 1,2) ‘Sanctified’ means recognized as holy, set apart from the commonplace; treating a situation or place with all reverence.  Above all, this must be our attitude toward God.  In our Leviticus reading today we see the dramatic and disastrous result of a failure to do this.  Imagine being there with all the wonder of the tabernacle and the manifestation of the actual presence of God as worship in it began!  We read “the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people. And fire came out from before the LORD and consumed the burnt offerings … [9 v.23,24].  As a result human attitudes of reverence and humility should have been paramount.  The reaction at the time was totally understandable, “they shouted and fell on their faces” [v.24]. Aaron had 4 sons, all were involved in assisting their father and today’s chapter tells us how tragedy overwhelmed two of them.  In the way we speak today we might judge that their position of importance went to their head!  Nadab and Abihu “each took his censer and put fire in it and laid incense on it and offered unauthorized fire before the LORD which he had not commanded them” [10 v.1] The result was terrifying for they “died before the LORD” as fire from him “consumed them” [v.2]  Moses then says to Aaron, “Among those who are near me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified” [v.3]   There is a vital lesson here for everyone who seeks to serve God and have a close relationship with him: this applies to Christians just as much as to Israelites. Several examples of a failure to do this come to mind.  One is the practice of christening of babies in many churches which is not mentioned in the Bible – or even hinted at – instead the followers of Christ practiced baptism, which is described as “an appeal to God for a good conscience” [1 Peter 3 v.21]  Another, is the teaching of people of a “different gospel” to “distort the gospel of Christ.” [Galatians 1 v.v.6,7]  Paul says, “let him be accursed” [v.9] who does that – and this is what happened to two of the sons of Aaron. A most important lesson for us as we follow Christ and the Apostles, doing so in ways which truly follow the example they set and the words they preached.

  3. Thought for March 3rd. “LET THEM THANK THE LORD FOR …”

    1D AGO

    Thought for March 3rd. “LET THEM THANK THE LORD FOR …”

    Today’s readings.. (Leviticus 8), (Psalm 107), (1 Corinthians 16) Four times in our Psalms reading today (107) we come to a verse that requests a certain action.  “Let them thank the LORD for his steadfast love , for his wondrous works to the children of men.” (v.8,15,21,31)    Then the Psalm ends with the statement, “Whoever is wise let him attend to these things: let them consider the steadfast love of the LORD.” So in being “wise” we get our minds to understand and appreciate the actions of the LORD in attending to – or responding to – the actions or inaction of human beings in the way they live their lives in the sight of God, whether they “see” their Creator – or blindfold themselves – or are simply indifferent toward him. When you think about it there are clear comparisons to that of children toward their parents as they grow up.  And of course there is often considerable failure,, especially these days, in the “wisdom” of human parents in the way they train their children,   But we are dealing with the wonderful divine parent, isn’t this the reason why we call him our “Heavenly Father.” Verse 17 states, “Some were fools through their sinful ways and because of their iniquities suffered affliction.”  We can see parallels in these words with life today.  Our world has totally ceased to look to God’s word; they have more or less abandoned belief in him and so the time will come, as verses 26,27 tells us,when “their courage melted away in their evil plight; they reeled and staggered like drunken men and were at their wits’ end.”   This is the spirit that is starting to ‘swamp’ our world more and more; with what astonishment will the world see divine action taking place to prevent humans from destroying God’s creation and, in the process, themselves.  The prophets warn of God’s ultimate actions, for example through Jeremiah he speaks of the time coming when “the LORD has an indictment against the nations; he is entering into judgment with all flesh … Thus says the LORD of hosts; Behold disaster is going forth from nation to nation …” [Ch.25 v. 31,32]    At that time as v.42 of our Psalm states, “The upright see it and are glad, and all wickedness shuts its mouth.”  Let us make sure we are among those who “thank the LORD … for his wondrous works”  in bringing peace out of utter chaos.

  4. Thought for March 2nd. “BAD COMPANY RUINS GOOD MORALS”

    2D AGO

    Thought for March 2nd. “BAD COMPANY RUINS GOOD MORALS”

    Today’s readings.. (Leviticus 7), (Psalm 106), (1 Corinthians 15) We pondered why the above saying rather suddenly occurs in today’s very moving and oft quoted 15th chapter of 1 Corinthians.  Parts of this chapter are often read at funerals, it contains a powerful testimony to the certainty of resurrection and that “in Christ shall all be made alive” [v.22] eternally “at his coming” adding the qualification “those who belong to Christ” [v.23] We must not cease to “belong to Christ” but that is not the same as belonging to a group of believers, one can do that, but in one’s heart have ceased to belong to Christ – even though we have been baptised. Paul says that among the Corinthians, “some have no knowledge of God, I say this to your shame” [v.34]  He writes this immediately after making the point, “Do not be deceived, bad company ruins good morals.”  We are surrounded by people who do not believe in the God of the Bible, but that is not the same as having “no knowledge of God” in the sense Paul meant in this chapter.  Look how the Bible uses this phrase.  Read Proverbs 2 v.1-5 and note the “ifs” that lead to one having a “knowledge of God” and then the prayer of Jesus in John 17 v.3, 25.  In these and similar passages we see that in having a “knowledge of God” we must, as a result, have a real relationship with him. It is “bad company” that will undermine our “knowledge of God” and then destroy that relationship or prevent it ever happening. But what is “bad company?”  Today it occurs in dangerous and new ways.  Television provides us with “company” and much of it qualifies as “bad company”!  As we see badness multiplying in the world – often all around us – we recognise that TV is a powerful influence in this.  As a result human behaviour is displaying more and more selfish self-love and animal like instincts.  Over and above the effects of much that is on TV, most now have regular access to the Internet – which offers a whole range of opportunities for even worse “bad company.”  Returning to our chapter we notice the last 2 verses,  “But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.  Therefore, my beloved … be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labour is not in vain.”

  6. Thought for March 1st. “HIS JUDGMENTS ARE IN ALL THE EARTH”

    2D AGO

    Thought for March 1st. “HIS JUDGMENTS ARE IN ALL THE EARTH”

    Today’s readings.. (Leviticus 5,6), (Psalm 105), (1 Corinthians 14) Our Psalms reading (105) stresses that God is fully conscious of all that happens among his creation.  Many examples are given that illustrate the reality of what Paul told the Athenians, that God “is actually not far from each one of us” [Acts 17 v.27) that “we have our being” within the Divine presence and, as Job expressed it, “In his hand is the life of every living thing” [12 v.10]  Look at some of the illustrations of this in today’s Psalm, note how it tells us to “seek the LORD and his strength; his presence continually.” [v.4]  We do not have to travel to seek his presence, we need to start each day by doing that: we need to “remember the wondrous works that he has done.” [v.5]  These works are seen, both in creation, and in the wonderful way “all things work together” (see Romans 8 v.28) to achieve God’s purpose.  This is seen in history; David reminds us of “his miracles, and the judgments he uttered” to the “offspring of Abraham” [v.5,6].  But it is not just with Israel that God is involved, “his judgments are in all the earth” [v.7] and the full reality and climax of this will be seen when Jesus returns.  The detail of the divine involvement in human life is made clear in our Leviticus reading (ch. 5 & 6). We read of more of the divine laws being put in place to cause the nation being formed in the wilderness to become a genuine “”holy nation” (Exod. 19 v.6).  Sadly, they failed in this. David and his son Solomon did their best in their days to lead the people into becoming a holy nation.  Then God’s son came to inspire people to develop personal holiness.  The aim must be, as we will read next week in Paul’s 2nd letter to the Corinthians, to “cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God.” [7 v.1] In our chapter today Paul is urgently encouraging them to “let all things be done for building up … for God is not the author of confusion but of peace …” [14 v.33].  Confusion comes when God’s word is not read properly – we should not pick and choose the parts which suit us, fully realizing that when “his judgments are in all the earth” when Christ returns,  “then each of us will give account of him(her)self to God.” [Rom. 14 v. 12]  Let us “seek … his strength and “his presence continually.”

    Why you should read the Bible #6 Was the Bible really written by God

    A @Christadelphians Video: **YouTube Video Summary / Description**Is the Bible just a collection of ancient stories, or is it something more? In this thought-provoking presentation, we examine the evidence for the Bible's divine authorship. Many dismiss the Scriptures as mere mythology, but what does the historical and prophetic record actually reveal?Join us for an insightful exploration where we tackle common criticisms and present compelling evidence that vindicates the Bible's truth. We delve into outstanding archaeological discoveries, like the Hittite civilization, that confirm the Bible's historical accuracy. We also examine a specific, precise prophecy in Ezekiel 26 concerning the city of Tyre, a revealing divine fingerprint on history.When we consider the Bible's internal consistency across 1,500 years, dozens of authors, and three continents, the case for its divine inspiration becomes powerful and transformative. This isn't just an academic exercise; understanding that the Bible is God's Word changes how we live and think. Discover how this exceptional book can provide purpose and direction for your life.**Chapters / Timestamps:**00:00 - Introduction: Is the Bible the Word of God?01:13 - Addressing Common Criticisms02:09 - Archaeological Evidence: The Hittites04:51 - Archaeological Evidence: King Belshazzar06:57 - Prophetic Evidence: The Prophecy Against Tyre09:41 - The Unified Story and God's Plan11:42 - The Bible's Testimony About Itself12:11 - Conclusion: The Transformative Power of God's Word13:14 - Q&A: Tips for Consistent Bible Reading15:23 - Q&A: What is God's Unified Plan in the Bible?19:46 - Q&A: Why is the Bible Long and Seemingly Complex?**Categories & Bible Verses:**📜 **Historical Accuracy**: Ezekiel 26, Daniel 5🗣️ **Divine Inspiration**: 2 Timothy 3:16🏛️ **Archaeological Validation**: (References to Hittites, Belshazzar)🌅 **God's Promises**: Numbers 14:21✝️ **The Gospel & Redemption**: (References to Genesis, the Lord Jesus Christ)Tags: Why you should read the Bible, Bible evidence, Bible prophecy, Bible archaeology, Ezekiel 26, Hittites, Belshazzar, is the Bible true, word of God, Christadelphian, Bible talk, Bible study, spiritual growth, religious faithWe are a Christadelphian team, Brothers and sisters of Christ, and we're passionate about delivering powerful, Scripture-based content to strengthen and inspire your faith journey.

  8. Thought for February 20th. “… I WILL BLOT OUT OF MY BOOK”

    FEB 22

    Thought for February 20th. “… I WILL BLOT OUT OF MY BOOK”

    It is interesting in how many parts of Scripture we find the words “blot” and “blotting” used  – to indicate that God is so angry he is  wiping out someone or some people, the worst case was in the time of Noah (Gen. 6 v.7 & 7 v.23) We encounter them today in Exodus.  Our chapters today portray the fickleness of human nature; Moses is away – up in the mountain (Joshua is with him) for 40 days.  That is a relatively long time when you are camped – with very little to do. The same applies to today – but worse – year after year with no thought of their being a God, no long term future, people say/think, ‘let us experience all we can now’.  The ‘gods’ of pleasure and leisure now dominate human minds.  But we ourselves have no excuse, we have God’s word to feed on, chew over, as much as we may desire – and his word provides a great variety of mind nourishing – and mind and heart challenging material for our prayerful meditation. Are we really doing this? In the time Moses is with him on the mount the LORD is aware of the attitude that is developing down in the Camp; he says to Moses,  “I have seen this people, and behold, it is a stiff-necked people.  Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them …” [32 v.9,10] Can we compare the absence of Moses with the absence of Christ?  There was keen anticipation of Christ’s return and the ‘promised land’ of the kingdom in the brotherhood some 150 years ago, this reached its peak with the deliverance of Jerusalem from the Turks over 100 years ago.   Then, the brotherhood was full of anticipation of the immanence of Armageddon and the advent of the kingdom when Israel became a nation.  But, as with Moses seeming ‘delay’ in the mountain, how many of us feel, at least subconsciously, that our Lord seems to be delayed in his return?  Our world offers an increasing number of distractions – they are not necessarily evil!  How interesting travel can be, many up until 2020 “ran to and fro” and what fascinating ‘mind consuming’ inventions now exist; ‘knowledge’  has incredibly increased. We know well these words in Daniel 12 v.4 – but is v.10 so readily in our minds? “And none of the wicked shall understand, but those who are wise shall understand.”   How full and convicted of mind are we in our understanding? In all the crisis that occurred when Moses came down from the mountain, v.33 stands out! ‘the LORD said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against me, I will blot out of my book.”      If we, having left ‘Egypt’, are now letting our minds wander and become absorbed in the ways that surround us, and  in a sense, ‘worship’ the fascinating things and experiences our world thrusts before us, then are we not most likely to be among those of whom God says, “I will blot (them) out of my book.”?   This is food for the deepest meditation.
