Why does it matter how we interpret the Bible? One major reason concerns God’s Chosen People.

Jesus came to Earth being fully God and fully human simultaneously. The unique name “Son of Man” ties these two elements of our Savior wonderfully. He used this title to describe Himself many times throughout the Gospels, showing both His humility as a human and His authority as the God of heaven and Earth. As we wrap up our 3-part …
Why is Jesus called the Son of Man? It’s not a name that stirs up thoughts of royalty or majesty like many of His other names do. In fact, it’s used in the Old Testament to refer to lowly humans.

One such name is the Holy One of God. The apostle Peter called Him this name—and so did demons! What does this title …
The glory of God isn’t a concept we can’t wrap our minds around. It’s the very substance and presence of God! Over the past two weeks, we studied how God’s physical manifestation dwelled with His Chosen People. But God’s substance, having resided in the Temple, left before the Temple’s destruction through the Mount of Olives, leaving the Israelites without His …
As Christians, we praise God for His glory—but what exactly is God’s glory? Last week we identified it as His substance, His physical manifestation dwelling with His people, and studied the consequence of disrespecting it. In part 2 of our series on God’s glory, we take a look at a healthy fear of and love for it. King David maintained …
We often praise God for and speak about His incomparable glory. But do you really know what His glory is? Could you define it? Understanding God’s glory is key to understanding His character.
