Do you tremble at the fear of the Lord? Are you floored when you think about the glory of God? Let’s be honest – most of us don’t spend much time thinking about God’s glory. In fact, we spend very little time thinking about him at all. Well, tune in this week for some fuel for your thoughts, right here on The Bible Study Hour.

Remember the last time you asked for a favor. You probably reminded the person of a favor you did for her recently. Or maybe you promised to do something soon to make it up and even out the debt. Grace is not like that. You cannot compel God to give it to you. You cannot negotiate for it. How then do we access grace? Tune in to hear Dr. James Boice explain the only way to receive God’s grace, this week on the Bible Study Hour.

There’s only a short step between victory and defeat. One moment we can be on a spiritual high from great success and the next we’re plunged into the valley of spiritual failure. Such was the experience of Joshua and the Israelites as they left the victory at Jericho and suffered the humiliating defeat at Ai. Join Dr. James Boice next time on The Bible Study Hour as he studies the repercussions of having “sin in the camp” when we walk with the Lord.

It’s pretty evident that humans aren’t faithful. We look at spiritual giants of the Bible – Abraham, Moses, David – and see them go astray. We look around at our culture and see people not keeping their promises either in business or relationships. We peek into our own hearts and see the same thing. How does God deal with all this unfaithfulness? In a surprising way. Tune in to hear Dr. James Boice talk about God’s faithfulness to his people, this week on The Bible Study Hour.

Usually a legal agreement is made between two parties who bind themselves to its terms. God made a unique covenant with us. He set the terms, and he is bound to them, regardless of our actions. Today we’ll be talking about the nature of covenants, and the special covenant God made for us.

Are you ever disappointed with God because your family and friends don’t know Christ? Do you think that God has given up on them? Just as it is impossible for them to know Christ, so it was impossible for us to know Him. Thankfully, our God is able to do the impossible. He delights in giving us salvation.

Salvation is impossible. But over and over we see that what is impossible with man is possible with God. This applies to the salvation of the Jewish people. It is also true for each of us individually. We have no room for arrogance because our own salvation comes completely by the grace of God and not because of who we are.

Perhaps the most often-asked question concerning the Christian faith is why a loving God permits the tragedy we see around us. Or, even more to the point, why a loving God not only allowed, but ordered men, women and children to be put to the sword as the Israelites entered the Promised Land. Join Dr. James Boice next time on The Bible Study Hour as he redirects the question and approaches the issue from God’s perspective.

Salvation cannot be lost. But many presume upon God’s grace without ever recognizing their need for a Savior or putting their faith in Christ. Paul speaks a strong warning to those who assume that God has chosen them because of who they are, rather than what Christ has done for them.
