The Psalms - Psalm 114

Exodus Set to Music

by Rev. Jim Jester

June 29, 2025

SCRIPTURE READING: Psalm 114:1-2

Psalm 114 is the second psalm of a series of psalms known as the Egyptian Hallel (Ps. 113-118), and is sung as part of Israel’s Passover ceremony. It is known as the “Song of the Exodus,” and it pictures God’s deliverance of Israel from Egypt.  It is likely that Jesus and his disciples sang the Hallel at their Passover feast recorded in the New Testament. It is also thought that this psalm was used to encourage the exiles on their return from Babylon. It has no introduction and no conclusion. It is an elaboration of the previous psalm. It begins and ends abruptly, without Hallelujah and without the name of the LORD.

Fornicator

By Walter Giddings

Featured Scripture:  Hebrews 12:16

 In The Scriptures, against whom is this charge of fornicator laid? What makes someone a “fornicator”? (1 Corinthians 5:11). Of what is a “fornicator” guilty of committing? Most of us here could say a “fornicator” is guilty of committing fornication. Is that “dodging the question”? Is that a humorous way of confessing our ignorance? Is that the same as saying a Jew is a non-Gentile, and a Gentile is a non-Jew? If we are expecting God does better than that, this Lesson might well bear fruit!

Scripture Reading:  Acts 17:26

According to an old and a new gallop poll which asked the following question, “Do you approve or disapprove of marriage between Black people and White people”, the results have changed drastically in the 63 years they have asked this question.

In 1958: 4% of Americans approved of interracial marriages between Blacks and Whites, while 94% disapproved.

In 2021: 94% of Americans approved of interracial marriages between Blacks and Whites, while 4% disapproved.

What happened in the last 63 years?

The Psalms - Psalm 111

In Remembrance of His Works

by Rev. Jim Jester

June 1, 2025

SCRIPTURE READING: Psalm 111:1

Psalm 111 begins with the simple declaration of “Praise the Lord,” i.e., in one word: “Hallelujah!” The first time we encounter the word “hallelujah” in the New Testament is in Revelation 19. That is when the Lord Jesus has judged Babylon the great, and begins to exercise His public kingship: “And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God.” (Rev. 19:1) So with this one word, hallelujah, it was as if the psalmist thought, “Before I describe how I will praise Him, let me simply declare His praise.” This declaration also implies that others should do the same.

Keynote Scripture: Philippians 3:20

“For our conversation is in heaven.”

Do Christians make the best citizens in any country? Would you prefer a Christian who is commanded by The God of The Bible to “love thy neighbour as thyself” for a neighbor? Or would you prefer a Muslim who is commanded by the god of the Koran to kill every Infidel? Would you prefer a Christian who is commanded by The God of The Bible “thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour”? Or would you prefer an atheist who believes he is God?! And, yesmost self-declared atheists are hypocrites [doubleminded] in order to clear the field of all competitors! (Psalm 94:20). As a god, does the atheist believe he is the rightful owner to all your property, and works tirelessly to organize a throne of iniquity to frame laws of mischief to seize the property of others?  Does he?! 

Statutes and Judgments

By Walter Giddings

Keynote Scripture:  Psalms 9:16

(Matthew 26:59-61).  Our previous Lesson we titled JudgmentsIn that Lesson our Key Scripture, Psalm 9:16, was the same as it is for this Lesson, Statutes and Judgments!  In Judgments we attempted to know The Great I Am God of Israel more intimately “by the judgment which he executeth...”!!!  At the end of that Lesson we asked the Question, “What if 2 Witnesses, willing to perjure their Sacred Oath of Testimony, can be found? 

Judgments

By Water Giddings

April 27, 2025

Psalms 9:16:  "The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth:...”

(Deuteronomy 17:8-13).  How well does American Israel know the LORD?  How well does American Israel understand The Judgments of her God?  Are we still doing stupid Sheep stuff?  

Do our Bibles ask the question, Who will rule? God or man? Are we despisers of God’s Judgments?

The Psalms - Psalm 106

God’s Grace & Israel’s Sin

by Rev. Jim Jester

April 20, 2025

SCRIPTURE READING: Psalm 106:45

INTRODUCTION

Psalm 106 depicts the mercy of God toward his covenant people, even as they forsook Him. This psalm is the dark counterpart of the previous psalm (Ps. 105), a shadow cast by self-will in its long struggle against light. Alexander Maclaren observed, “The keynote of Psalm 105 is, ‘Remember His mighty deeds;’ that of Psalm 106 is, ‘They forgot His mighty deeds.’” In this psalm, Israel’s history is written to show man’s sin, while the preceding psalm was to show God’s goodness. It truly is a national confession.

So why does true Israel, the white race of America, tend to forget their biblical history? It is because they are told by false churches that Israel means “Jews;” one of the biggest lies in the world.

Scripture Reading: 2 Timothy 3:15-16:

What were the “holy scriptures” that Timothy learned from his mother, Eunice, along with his grandmother, Lois, that made him wise unto salvation (2 Timothy 1:5)? It was probably the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Old Testament. It was written by seventy-two Judeans who translated it at the request of the Egyptian Pharaoh for the library at Alexander in Egypt, several centuries BC.

Timothy grew up in Asia Minor at a time when the New Testament era was in its infancy – there was no such thing as New Testament books yet. It wasn’t compiled until 367 A.D., when Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, Egypt gave a list of books that form the modern twenty-seven books of the New Testament.
