A Venue for Biblical studies for the Ekklesia

Approved worker Trusting in YHVH Receiving the Word The Word of God Growing in Grace and Knowledge

Welcome

This web site is a venue for biblical studies based on a common understanding of God the Father and Jesus Christ that is not restricted by the culture and environment of being a church. There is only one Ekklesia but there are many corporations. The historical environment of the Churches of God is generally that you could believe whatever you wanted as long as you kept it to yourself, but open differences were not going to be considered. If we are growing in biblical knowledge and understanding, then what we teach now, and in the future, will be somewhat different from what we taught in the past. Also, what one teacher offers may be different from another one. We are imperfect beings with imperfect understanding so a range of perspectives will be shared. In the end though, all teachings must be weighed against the consistency of the record of scripture.

Recent Studies

Burnt Offering - a Sweet Aroma

2026-09-05

Michael Nelte

We see burnt offerings commanded every day, with extra on each of the appointed times. These are a sweet aroma to God, yet we are also told that God does not desire sacrifices, sometimes even calling them a stench. We are also not allowed to make these sacrifices, as we are not priests. What is this sweet aroma that Yehovah smells from a burnt offering on the altar, and how can we produce that today?

Don't Crush Your Can

2021-10-25  

Presenter: Mark Mickelson

The choices each of us makes, very early in life, can impact our future. Some choices make little difference, but others can limit our physical potential in significant ways. This is not about what happens to us externally but about the choices that each of us makes for ourselves.

Inspiration - Mercy

Leviticus 23:22 NKJV

(comment) Approaching the great harvest gathering of mankind, notice our Father's feelings toward them Was well as former cared for peoples.) When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field when you reap, nor shall you gather any gleaning from your harvest. You shall leave them for the POOR OF THE LAND and the STRANGER: I am YHVH (Yehovah) your God (Elohim). (The message we're given is to share, in-short, to love one's neighbor as himself.)
