Msg#1618 A Psalmists Four Instructions

What The Bible Says Good Samaritan’s Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice The LORD God’s thirty-seventh Psalm contains four instructions critical to his creature’s well being. They are connected to great promise and then twice interwoven through twenty-eight of the forty verses. The first six verses spell out the instructions, the last six word them […]

Msg#1619 Foreshadowing Christ

What The Bible Says Good Samaritan’s Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice God’s Hebrew poetry has depth not penetrated by the casual listener. “Give ear, O my people, to my laws incline your ears to my mouth” (Ps 78:1). A most common error in writing is changing of person or perspective. If one begins a […]

Msg#1620 Baptized for the Dead?

What The Bible Says Good Samaritan’s Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice A friend refuting the LDS cult told an elder “Get real! There is nothing in the Bible about being baptized for the dead!” His mouth was stopped when the cultic elder showed him 1Cor 15:29. Indeed the verse captures the focus of many […]

Msg#1621 Why KJB Only?

What The Bible Says Good Samaritan’s Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice All modernists ecumenical Bibles completely leave out twenty verses that have always been in the Holy Bible.

Msg#1615 Don’t Attack Jeroboam

What The Bible Says Good Samaritan’s Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice Almost five hundred years after Gideons outnumbered three-hundred won a great victory over the Midianites, Abijah was outnumbered two-to-one against his own brethren. Curious. After Gideon there were seven more judges, Samuel, Saul and King David. Solomon built the Temple of God on […]

Msg#1616 Jumping Jehoshaphat

What The Bible Says Good Samaritan’s Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice “Jumping Jehoshaphat” was an expression often heard and it originated because a king of Judah jumped into bed with Ahab, the vilest of the kings of Israel. “Can’t”, “Quit”, and “Compromise” should be eliminated from a Christian’s vocabulary. A Baptist pastor memorably said, […]

Msg#1614 In Remnants Not Mega-Majorities

What The Bible Says Good Samaritan’s Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice Gideon was likely concerned about facing off against the Midianites with only 32,000 soldiers; they would be outnumbered by more than three-to-one. Sometimes one wonders if the LORD God really knows what we are up against down here. The hosts of the Midianites […]
