    1501. This Caused Chaos in Corinth: Women, Wealth & Words | 1 Cor 1:5-6 | The Corinth Conversations #4

    Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb and Dr. Fred Long continue their slow walk through 1 Corinthians, examining 1 Corinthians 1:5–6 in the Greek text. Paul says the Corinthians were “enriched in every way… in all speech and knowledge.” But what does that actually mean? In this episode they explore: • The significance of Paul’s repetition of “all” (παν) • Why logos and gnosis become key themes in the letter • The possible role of wealthy elites and household tensions in Corinth • Patronage culture and why Paul refused financial support • How these opening verses set up the entire letter This passage may sound like simple encouragement, but it actually foreshadows the major conflicts Paul will address throughout 1 Corinthians. #biblestudy #bible #jesus #podcast #faith #booktok #christ #books #theology #scholar #provetext #glossahouse #scripture #god #jesuschrist #corinthians #conversation ***GlossaHouse resources are available at our website! - https://glossahouse.com/✏️ ***Sign up for classes with GlossaHouse U - https://glossahouse.com/pages/classes📖 ***Subscribe to our GlossaHouse Digital Libraries for access to incredible resources - https://glossahouse.com/collections/glossahouse-digital-library📓 ------ Get What You Need for Serious Bible Study at https://glossahouse.com/🎤 Subscribe to GlossaHouse's podcast, ProveText, for a plethora of great in-depth teachings and discussions: ᯤ Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/7xXn8x6IgdcUDIhKouDEiR🍎 iTunes - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/provetext/id1542221462💻 Amazon - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/0bf4a019-6adc-4766-bc90-c74df78f3720/provetext😃Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/GlossaHouse👍Twitter - https://twitter.com/glossahouse❤️TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@glossahouse🎲Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/glossahouse/📸YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@glossahouse🧲Rumble - https://www.rumble.com/user/GlossaHouse

    1500. God Didn’t Rest—He Took the Throne | Genesis 1 Explained

    What does it actually mean that God “rested” in Genesis 1? Most people assume it means stopping, relaxing, or taking a break. But in the ancient world, “rest” didn’t mean inactivity—it meant enthronement. In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb explores how Genesis 1 presents God not as exhausted, but as taking His place as King over creation. That changes everything. 👉 Creation is not just made—it’s ordered 👉 The world is not random—it’s God’s temple 👉 Rest is not escape—it’s rule, presence, and alignment And once that rest is disrupted in Genesis 2–3, the rest of Scripture asks one central question: How do we get back? From Israel’s story to the words of Jesus—“Come to me and I will give you rest”—the Bible is about restoring what was lost. #biblestudy #bible #podcast #jesus #christ #faith #theology #love #scholar #books #genesis #god #godisgood #jesuschrist #christianeducation #christian #rest #rule #king #lord #throne #teacher #teaching #education #educationalvideo ***GlossaHouse resources are available at our website! - https://glossahouse.com/✏️ ***Sign up for classes with GlossaHouse U - https://glossahouse.com/pages/classes📖 ***Subscribe to our GlossaHouse Digital Libraries for access to incredible resources - https://glossahouse.com/collections/glossahouse-digital-library📓 ------ Get What You Need for Serious Bible Study at https://glossahouse.com/🎤 Subscribe to GlossaHouse's podcast, ProveText, for a plethora of great in-depth teachings and discussions: ᯤ Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/7xXn8x6IgdcUDIhKouDEiR🍎 iTunes - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/provetext/id1542221462💻 Amazon - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/0bf4a019-6adc-4766-bc90-c74df78f3720/provetext😃Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/GlossaHouse👍Twitter - https://twitter.com/glossahouse❤️TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@glossahouse🎲Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/glossahouse/📸YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@glossahouse🧲Rumble - https://www.rumble.com/user/GlossaHouse

    1497. “I’m Only Human”… But By What Standard?

    “I’m only human.” It’s a phrase we use often—but have we ever stopped to ask what we mean by it? In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb revisits Genesis 1 to explore how Scripture defines humanity—not by sin, but by vocation, identity, and purpose. If Jesus is truly human and without sin, what does that reveal about what it means to be human? 👉 This conversation invites us to rethink a deeply ingrained assumption. 👍 Subscribe for more ProveText content 🔔 Turn on notifications so you don’t miss upcoming episodes 💬 Share your thoughts below: How do you define “being human”? #biblestudy #bible #genesis #ChristianTheology #christ #Jesus #Faith #faith #christian #christianity #podcast #humanity #sin #scholar #god #jesuschrist #gospel #true #teaching ***GlossaHouse resources are available at our website! - https://glossahouse.com/✏️ ***Sign up for classes with GlossaHouse U - https://glossahouse.com/pages/classes📖 ***Subscribe to our GlossaHouse Digital Libraries for access to incredible resources - https://glossahouse.com/collections/glossahouse-digital-library📓 ------ Get What You Need for Serious Bible Study at https://glossahouse.com/🎤 Subscribe to GlossaHouse's podcast, ProveText, for a plethora of great in-depth teachings and discussions: ᯤ Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/7xXn8x6IgdcUDIhKouDEiR🍎 iTunes - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/provetext/id1542221462💻 Amazon - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/0bf4a019-6adc-4766-bc90-c74df78f3720/provetext😃Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/GlossaHouse👍Twitter - https://twitter.com/glossahouse❤️TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@glossahouse🎲Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/glossahouse/📸YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@glossahouse🧲Rumble - https://www.rumble.com/user/GlossaHouse
