Bible Matters

Bible Matters is a topical discussion group that enables God’s people to become more comfortable in discussing matters of the Christian faith and more confident in defending the Bible’s teachings. We encourage open dialogue and welcome bold questions. All are welcome to consider how God’s word addresses various topics.

Topics for our spring sessions are:

April 14 What does it mean to be “on the right side of history”?

April 21 Is the Old Testament God (vengeful) the same as the New Testament God (merciful)?

April 28 Are the Ten Commandments still valid? Do they need to be updated?

May 5 -- NO Bible Matters --

May 12 I’ve been confronted about my faith. How do I respond?

May 19 Is there value to “thoughts and prayers”?

May 26 How do God and religion really help you get through tough times?

Bible Matters meets on Wednesdays at 7:00 PM.

If you want to join us on Zoom, contact the pastor to get links. NOTE: Zoom viewers may likely be delegated to listening as Zoom is not a great format for participating with the group meeting in person.

ADULT BIBLE CLASS – NEW SERIES

“ELEPHANTS IN THE ROOM” – Evolution vs. The Words of Scripture

One of the great wars being waged against the Christian faith today is done by attacking the biblical teaching of creation. Many within the Church have tried to find a compromise between creation and science (evolution) called theistic evolution. This Bible study compares scriptural teaching with theistic evolution and shows that theistic evolution ends up compromising, not just biblical creation but all the major teachings of Scripture: the nature of God’s original perfect creation, the origin and perfect nature of the first humans, the fall into sin, sin’s curse on creation, God’s plan of salvation for sinners, the saving work of Jesus Christ, and the source of “right and wrong.”

Each lesson begins with a study of Scripture and then compares that with the teachings of theistic evolutionists presented in their own words.
