The church used off-campus parking and needed to encourage people to park there, so donuts seemed to be a simple solution. The only problem was that parents began dropping their kids off in the remote parking lot so the kids could grab a donut, but the parents proceeded to follow the van in their cars and park in the crowded church parking lot. Someone observed what was happening and offered some wisdom—serve coffee on the shuttle van instead. Parents began dropping their kids off at the church and then enjoyed a few moments of peace and some coffee while riding the shuttle from the remote lot. We live in a world that may seem simple at times, but the simple is often what makes it so complex. This is true in part because we live in a system where everything is connected. One decision impacts others, having a ripple effect. Systems theory refers to this as simplexity, and this simplexity points to our need for wisdom. Some people seek out professional analysts to help them navigate this world while others turn to their trusted friends and mentors. Solomon discovered that the only place to go when trying to figure out this simplex world was to the One who created it in the first place. Solomon recorded the wisdom God revealed to him in Proverbs and Song of Songs. Learning from these Bible books helps us fulfill Paul’s directive to live as wise people (Eph. 5:15). As we study Proverbs and Song of Songs, we will discover the wisdom of God for living in ways that please our Creator. Not everything we discover will be easy nor will it be simple, but it will be right. May God grant us a glimpse of His wisdom and give us courage to act on what we discover.

Beryl—a light-green precious stone closely related to emeralds and aquamarines Discipline—moral training and instruction that warns of the consequences of sinful actions or corrects those who have sinned Fear of the LORD—includes awe, reverence, trust, submission, and obedience; for enemies of God rather than followers of God, the fear of God involves terror Fool—the antithesis of a wise person; the Hebrew word suggests stubbornness. The term denotes moral perversion. The fool thinks of himself as without error; he rejects godly wisdom because it contradicts his own view of knowledge. He detests discipline because discipline involves correction and correction implies he made an error. Iniquity—one of several biblical words for sin; a legal term that emphasizes the guilt of the sinner and the consequences of sin Pit—The Hebrew word means a hole in the earth. The most common use of the word is to refer to a “well” or “cistern”; it can also mean an open grave. Righteous/righteousness—”Righteous” denotes that which God determines to be right; righteousness involves being right with God and living in a way that reflects it. Sheol [SHEE ohl]—In Old Testament thought, Sheol refers to the grave or the realm of the dead. Stiff-necked—obstinate, stubborn Myrrh—an aromatic resin used in anointing oil, perfume Wisdom—Biblical wisdom is a gift from God; it includes the knowledge of God, discipline, morality, and the ability to apply knowledge to overcome the problems of life. Wormwood—a bitter plant common to the Middle East; often used in the Old Testament to speak of bitterness or sorrow 6 Explore the Bible | Leader Guide © 2020 LifeWay Christian Resources BIBLE READING PLAN JUNE JULY AUGUST ❏ 1.

  • Questions and Answers # 14
    Questions and Answers # 14 ‘From Blasphemeous Names’ Bro. Lee Vayle - September 5, 1992 Shall we pray: Heavenly Father, our desire tonight is to know Your Word correctly by the revelation which has been vindicated to us, and the statutes, Lord, that we may walk therein, and walk softly before You. We know, Lord, that every age has had those men that were obstreperous and they actually did things they should not have done. And even those that were consecrated vessels many times got out of hand. And yet we see in the lives of men, like Paul, and Bro. Branham in our day, men so dedicated to the faith and to the walk of conduct as to make us marvel at the depth of the grace of God in their lives which they were able to gather to themselves, to look to You, Lord, until that grace flowed there, and the Word went forth in the true Spirit of Almighty God. We need that today, Lord. We need it every hour, and especially in the closing hours, because it is for us. And we know when it’s for us, You’ve demanded it, as the prophet said You’ve also “made a way for it.” So, we pray that we’ll learn something tonight wherein we can walk as we ought to walk, as dear sons, as manifested sons to the limited degree in which that is at that time, knowing that the fullness comes forth in the resurrection – though, Lord, we fall behind in those things – allowing no man to take our crown, not allowing ourselves to stop short of the goal but to go all the way.

  • Proverbs for Teens
    Proverbs for Teens By Jodi Green All scripture quotations are from The Believer’s Study Bible: New King James Version. 1991. Thomas Nelson, Inc. edited by W.A. Criswell Proverbs for Teens Copyright 2012 by Jodi Green INTRODUCTION When I was in junior high school (middle school now days), I heard about Billy Graham’s practice of reading five chapters of Psalms and one chapter of Proverbs every day. Since there are 150 chapters of Psalms and 31 chapters of Proverbs, that meant he read the entire books of Psalms and Proverbs every month. And since Psalms teaches us to relate to God, and Proverbs teaches us to relate to our culture, Billy Graham’s idea seemed like a great one. Dr. Graham’s practice was to read the chapters of Proverbs according to the day of the month. For example, on the first day of the month he read Proverbs 1; the second day would be Proverbs 2, and so on. He read Psalms in order of the chapters, but we will discuss that more in the conclusion. My hope for this book is to begin training you to read a chapter of Proverbs every day. Proverbs is a book of wisdom, and we all need a daily dose of Biblical wisdom. Reading only one verse of scripture per day is like eating one spoonful of cereal for breakfast. It is still good for you, but you need a whole bowl to be nourished physically. In the same way, one verse of scripture is good for you, but you need more if you are to grow spiritually.

  • Ecclesiastes Song of Solomon
    Notes & Outlines ECCLESIASTES SONG OF SOLOMON Dr. J. Vernon McGee ECCLESIASTES WRITER: Solomon. The book is the “dramatic autobiography of his life when he got away from God.” TITLE: Ecclesiastes means “preacher” or “philosopher.” PURPOSE: The purpose of any book of the Bible is important to the correct understanding of it; this is no more evident than here. Human philosophy, apart from God, must inevitably reach the conclusions in this book; therefore, there are many statements which seem to contra- dict the remainder of Scripture. It almost frightens us to know that this book has been the favorite of atheists, and they (e.g., Volney and Voltaire) have quoted from it profusely. Man has tried to be happy without God, and this book shows the absurdity of the attempt. Solomon, the wisest of men, tried every field of endeavor and pleasure known to man; his conclusion was, “All is vanity.” God showed Job, a righteous man, that he was a sinner in God’s sight. In Ecclesiastes God showed Solomon, the wisest man, that he was a fool in God’s sight. ESTIMATIONS: In Ecclesiastes, we learn that without Christ we can- not be satisfied, even if we possess the whole world — the heart is too large for the object. In the Song of Solomon, we learn that if we turn from the world and set our affections on Christ, we cannot fathom the infinite preciousness of His love — the Object is too large for the heart. Dr. A. T. Pierson said, “There is a danger in pressing the words in the Bible into a positive announcement of scientific fact, so marvelous are some of these correspondencies.

  • The Creed Part 6 – I Believe in the Forgiveness of Sins Pastor Ted Cunningham
    The Creed Part 6 – I Believe in the Forgiveness of Sins Pastor Ted Cunningham I believe in the forgiveness of sins. If you have your Bibles, turn to 1 John 1. We’re going to start the message and end the message there today. I had a professor in seminary… I learned a lot in seminary, but, boy, there were some things, with the passion at which they were delivered, that stuck out to me. A couple of things I learned. I took a class by Dr. Robert Lightner. He’s an older gentleman that had been at Dallas for a long time and I remember him getting passionate about this. I think his passion was flowing from the church growth movement where he was kind of getting worn out on the fluffy, feel-good, fuzzy, warm message. He would stand up and with fire… I could tell he wasn’t even going off any notes, but he would hit that little lectern and he would go, “Let me tell you something! If you’re going to profess the gospel of Jesus, you must talk about sin!” He was really fired up. He said, “You can’t just tell people they’re saved, you need to tell them what they are saved from!” Then he would say, “Let me tell you how to talk to them about sin! Quit telling people sin is missing the mark. That’s only half true. Sin is missing the mark and hitting the wrong mark.” I was like, Alright! You’re not going to grow any churched with that kind of attitude, Dr.

  • J. Paul Tanner, "The Message of the Song of Songs,"
    J. Paul Tanner, “The Message of the Song of Songs,” Bibliotheca Sacra 154: 613 (1997): 142-161. The Message of the Song of Songs — J. Paul Tanner [J. Paul Tanner is Lecturer in Hebrew and Old Testament Studies, Singapore Bible College, Singapore.] Bible students have long recognized that the Song of Songs is one of the most enigmatic books of the entire Bible. Compounding the problem are the erotic imagery and abundance of figurative language, characteristics that led to the allegorical interpretation of the Song that held sway for so much of church history. Though scholarly opinion has shifted from this view, there is still no consensus of opinion to replace the allegorical interpretation. In a previous article this writer surveyed a variety of views and suggested that the literal-didactic approach is better suited for a literal-grammatical-contextual hermeneutic.1 The literal-didactic view takes the book in an essentially literal way, describing the emotional and physical relationship between King Solomon and his Shulammite bride, while at the same time recognizing that there is a moral lesson to be gained that goes beyond the experience of physical consummation between the man and the woman. Laurin takes this approach in suggesting that the didactic lesson lies in the realm of fidelity and exclusiveness within the male-female relationship.2 This article suggests a fresh interpretation of the book along the lines of the literal-didactic approach. (This is a fresh interpretation only in the sense of making refinements on the trend established by Laurin.) Yet the suggested alternative yields a distinctive way in which the message of the book comes across and Solomon himself is viewed.

    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.
