What should we do when we do not see eye to eye? Specifically, what should you do when you vehemently disagree with your pastor? There is a godly way to deal with such disagreements. As long as the pastor is rightly dividing the word and not engaging in heresy or immorality, you should be respectful. A pastor is not called to parrot everything their predecessor said, and their studies might lead them to different conclusions. If you disagree with something, behave like a child of God rather t...

The prophet Isaiah foretold of Christ, but he also prophesied that there would be people who would not be able to hear and receive the message. The rejection of Christ by the Jews was part of that prophecy, as was the grace extended to the Gentiles who can hear His word. God chooses whom He will save, but those who are chosen should not be boastful or have a sense of entitlement. We cannot know whom God chooses; our job is to keep trusting and looking to Him. “Who Hath Believed Our Report?” S...

A lesson from the apostle Paul, as someone who once rejected Christ, shows us that we Gentiles should not get puffed up in our calling. God is not done with the Jewish people, and we should not make the mistake of thinking we know whom He will or will not save. The picture of election by grace shows us that it is God’s prerogative to choose. “Election by Grace Is God’s Prerogative” Study Notes VF-2431 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes including DVD's are available.

Many churches today convey the idea that there is a “special class of sinners” or a special way of salvation, which is not biblical. None of us are born to desire God, and none of us have “special sins.” We are all born with a dark heart. We are all sinners in need of salvation. We cannot save ourselves, and we must recognize that salvation does not come by doing good deeds or by hearing words that make us “feel good.” It comes by hearing the words of faith. “You’re Not Born to Desire God” St...

Not all the Jews in Christ’s day rejected Him, but many of the religious leaders were against Him because they lacked spiritual discernment and perceived Him as a threat to their position. There were also many people who only followed Jesus for self-serving reasons. God foretold the rejection of Christ, and many people today still reject Him and will not hear. But God can turn people around. In the end, God will have all those He desires to have, whether Jew or Gentile. “The Rejection of Chri...

In the book of Romans, Paul looked to the prophet Isaiah’s declaration that a remnant of the children of Israel shall be saved. Paul addressed Jews who thought their salvation was automatic because they possessed the Scriptures and the law. They could not accept that Christ was the end of the law and that the Gentiles could be saved without it. God wants trust, not perfection; and for that trust, there is eternal salvation through Him. “A Remnant Shall Be Saved” Study Notes VF-2428 Some Mater...

Jewish people say that if the mother is Jewish, the child is also Jewish, regardless of the father. Yet there is no scriptural validation for this doctrine. Furthermore, the biblical genealogies show that God focused on the father, not the mother. So, why do so many Jews hold to the erroneous doctrine of matrilineal descent? “Matrilineal Descent Is Not Biblical” Study Notes VF-2420 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes including DVD's are available.

The religious history of God’s people and the Promised Land is complicated. The Israelitish culture is relatively young compared to that of other people who have occupied that land. The land has been occupied by many peoples over the centuries, but God was focused on the line of Shem leading up to Christ. Not all of God’s people were Jewish, nor were they all practicing Judaism. God promised to bless all twelve tribes of Israel, and He will reunite them one day. “Jewish History: Not as Ancien...

Many of Abraham’s seed believed they did not need salvation because they had the covenants, the promises, and the law. Although they were anticipating a messiah, they rejected Christ. In the book of Romans, Paul makes it clear why: not all Israel is of Israel. Some have the capacity to respond; many do not. Until God gives the capacity, no one can receive. “Not All Israel Is of Israel” Study Notes VF-2426 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes including DVD's are available.

The prophecies of Ezekiel present a clear indictment of the lack of faithfulness, the rebellion, and the idolatry of the children of Israel. These prophecies help us to understand just how low the Southern Kingdom had fallen before they were carried into captivity in Babylon. They also show us God’s perfect plan for the future restoration of Israel, both the Northern and Southern Kingdoms. “God Has a Perfect Plan” Study Notes VF-2423 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes including DV...

God has a plan for the future of the land of Israel, when He will reunite the people of the Northern and Southern Kingdoms. But we must also understand the history that shaped Judaism from the time of the exile to the fall of Jerusalem. God is not done with the Jewish people. “The Intertestamental History of the Jewish People” Study Notes VF-2424 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes including DVD's are available.

It is an error to assume that all the descendants of Abraham are Jewish. The Bible says Abraham was the father of many nations, not just one. One of the seeds descending from him was the covenant line, but the descendants of that line were not always obedient to God, and they commingled with pagans. And the idea that people are Jewish by matrilineal descent is not based on God’s word. “Investigating the Origins of Judaism” VF-2419 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes including DVD's...
