1 Corinthians 2:14 "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned." "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear."

@1cor127 Ever wonder about the murderer and insurrectionist Barabbas? It was no accident that Jesus took his place: bereansearching.com/2025/08/30/hid…

How wide is your concern? In Luke 24:18-19, the resurrected Jesus asked Cleopas and a friend what they were discussing, and they asked Jesus if He was the only one who didn’t know what happened in the last few days. So Jesus asked “What things?”. They didn’t realize who they were talking to. Jesus obviously knew they were talking about Him being crucified, but what about the 2 criminals that were as well? What about their grief stricken mothers? What about His executioners? They needed salvation, but would the disciples help them to find salvation in Christ? Or were they so consumed with their own loss of Jesus that they couldn’t see past themselves? Many Christians are concerned only with their own personal relationship with Jesus. But He is the life; the life around them. Do you see the hungry, thirsty, naked, sick and enslaved among humanity? He has become its sin (2 Cor 5:21). Too many Christians are only about their personal relationship with Jesus, and they forget about the broader relationship; Jesus, His whole creation and me. We share Christ’s responsibility to humanity, for we are His ambassadors and joint heirs to the throne of God. Don’t forsake loving the lost and broken people all around you because it’s too messy and sometimes dangerous. They need Jesus and it’s up to us to make sure they are given the opportunity to know Him personally. How wide is your concern? It should be as wide as Jesus Christ’s.

I think that the lack of expository preaching today is the root of all evil in the churches. You don’t teach them how to interpret and how to love the Bible. —@AugustusLopes ligm.in/4d8WnE8

@gracieback2 The Garden of Gethsemane is more important than most people think: bereansearching.com/2023/11/08/ano…

🛐THANK YOU JESUS🛐 🩸 🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸 In the shadows of these olive trees, Jesus felt the crushing weight of every sin we've ever committed. He was in such deep agony that he literally sweat blood, knowing exactly the physical and spiritual pain that waited for him at the cross. Yet, in his darkest hour, he chose to stay and say "yes" to the Father—all because he loved us too much to let us go.

@NancyH_60 There is more to the story than most people are aware: bereansearching.com/2023/11/08/ano…

The Night Jesus Was Arrested: What Really Happened in Gethsemane That Changed Everything Did you know the night Jesus Christ was arrested, something happened in the darkness that many Christians have never truly understood? It wasn’t just a betrayal. It wasn’t just soldiers with swords. Something far deeper happened in a quiet place called the garden of Gethsemane, a moment that would change the destiny of the entire world. It was late at night. The city of Jerusalem had grown quiet after the Passover meal. The moon hung over the olive trees as Jesus Christ walked slowly into the garden with his disciples. But this night was different. The Bible says his soul was exceedingly sorrowful, even unto death. Matthew 26:38. Jesus knew what was about to happen — the betrayal, the suffering, the cross. So he walked deeper into the garden and fell to the ground to pray. And in the silence of that night, Jesus prayed one of the most powerful prayers ever spoken: “Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me — yet not my will, but yours be done.” Luke 22:42. The weight of the world was upon him. Luke tells us something astonishing: Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly and his sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground. Luke 22:44.

@JoshuaBarzon Speaking of Nehemiah Chapter 2 you might find this interesting: bereansearching.com/2023/12/07/hid…

After the exile, Nehemiah led the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s walls. The book of Nehemiah carefully records the gates and sections repaired by different families and groups. The project symbolized both physical restoration and the renewal of the community of God’s people.

Jesus’s post resurrection appearances

@TorahMike Thanks Mike. I'm not perfect and still incomplete. Speaking of the Song of Moses: bereansearching.com/2024/12/10/the… and had you heard of Moses' Ark? bereansearching.com/2023/11/25/noa…

Appreciate the Palm Sunday link — those fulfillments are spot-on and a beautiful picture of Jesus as the Passover Lamb on 10 Nisan! They’re correct… but incomplete. They look back at prophecies already fulfilled (a very good thing). What gets left out when we subtract Passover / First Fruits from God’s curriculum is the forward layer: the prophecies yet to come that rely directly on Exodus imagery for a second, greater deliverance. Jer 16:14-15, Isa 11:11-16, Ezek 20:33-38, and even Rev 15:3 (the song of Moses and the Lamb) all depend on that full Passover typology. God’s curriculum still has future chapters. Passover keeps the whole story in view.

One of my biggest “beefs” with Easter is this: It celebrates the death and resurrection of Jesus (a very good thing), yet it completely severs the rich biblical symbolism of the Exodus from Egypt. At the personal level, the Exodus is an allegory of our own salvation. At the national level, it’s prophetic — pointing to a second, greater Exodus still to come. Passover is God’s own curriculum. It teaches us about: - the Messianic sacrifice, - personal salvific deliverance, - and the future prophetic national deliverance. Man-made “Easter” tips its hat to the biblical holiday, but quietly drops the last two. God’s way is better.

@JoshuaBarzon bereansearching.com/2025/11/01/the…

Scripture repeatedly presents God as the one who heals. In the Old Testament He restores His people, and in the Gospels Jesus heals the sick as a sign of the kingdom. These acts point beyond physical healing to the deeper restoration God brings through redemption.

Absolutely True and Trustworthy! I try to share the things that I find here: bereansearching.com "It is also the ONLY book that reads the reader!" Hebrews 4:12, "For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."

TRUTH...💖🙏💖🙏💖

@mdwilson07 The Parable of the Fig Tree: bereansearching.com/2025/11/17/the…

Let no fruit grow on you ever again. Matthew 21:19 Leaves without fruit, appearance without repentance. The fig tree stood full, yet empty. Judgment came instantly. But this was not the end, what God judges in unbelief, He will restore in covenant faithfulness.

@beholdisrael The Old Testament is essential! x.com/dow4hurst/stat…

Shalom everyone. On this Palm Sunday, it is essential to recognize that the Triumphal Entry was not merely a historical tradition, but the literal fulfillment of ancient biblical prophecy calculated to the exact day. In this update, Amir Tsarfati breaks down the profound connection between the Old Testament and the life of Yeshua. By examining the timeline established in Nehemiah and the 70-week prophecy in the Book of Daniel, we see the mathematical certainty of God’s Word.

@Exoplanet_Nomad @beholdisrael And just as Samson used the jawbone of an ass to slay the Philistines, so does God use the believers to bring the Gospel of Salvation to save sinners and slay the wicked.

@beholdisrael Huh… God says YOU ARE LOWER THAN A DONKEY!!! 👇👇👇

@beholdisrael This is explained more here: bereansearching.com/2025/04/15/the…

@kylas610 So much more if people would only realize that the Bible is not just a book scribed by 40 humans, but rather every jot and tittle was guided by God's Holy Spirit. Please check out the hidden spiritual gems identified here: bereansearching.com

"It was written by man?" Yes, 40 men. They lived over a period of 1,500 years. That means some of them was born before the others died, and some died before the others were born. They lived on three different continents. They spoke three different languages. And yet from Genesis to Revelation, there's an undeniable unity of thought. That's literally impossible: you can't get 20 people in a room and tell them to write an essay about one topic and get agreement. Impossible apart from the inspiration of God Almighty. 40 men wrote the Bible by putting in on paper, but YHWH is the true only author of the Book of life.
