Learning to walk in freedom: Part 4 Galatians 2:15-21

Skilled Workman Posted on January 16, 2012 by David BergslandJanuary 16, 2012

Today we get into one of the core verses of scripture: Galatians 2:20 “I have been crucified with the Messiah. I no longer live, but He lives in me.” Until we understand this transaction, it is hard to move forward in our walk in the Kingdom. ______________________________ (Galatians 2 continues) Verses 2:15–16 We are Jews by birth and not sinners come out of the Gentiles. However, knowing that a person is not justified by the works of the … Continue reading →

Learning to Walk in Freedom: Part 1 Galatians 1:1-10

Skilled Workman Posted on December 28, 2011 by David BergslandDecember 28, 2011

All unreferenced scripture quotes are from my own paraphrase, “Modern Viking Paraphrase” [MVP] ________________________________ Letter of Paul to the Galatians: Chapter One Verse 1:1–5 Paul, an apostle (not from men nor by man, but sent by Jesus the Messiah and God the Father, who raised him … Continue reading →

Learning to Walk in Freedom: Galatians Intro

Skilled Workman Posted on December 28, 2011 by David BergslandDecember 28, 2011

My plan is to serialize my Bible studies for my blog readers. Here is the Introduction to my verse by verse study of Galatians. _______________________________________________ The Galatians Galatia is not a town, but a region of Asia Minor just north of Cyprus. What follows is info from Easton‘s Bible dictionary plus UNRV, a site on the Roman empire: Galatia has been called the “Gallia” of the East… Gallia, as the Romans called it, was the region of … Continue reading →

Accused of being religious?

Skilled Workman Posted on October 14, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

Accused of being religious — I hope not. What a horrible thing that is! I am certainly not religious, at least not too much. According to dictionary.com: a religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs. The problem is that sets are defined and God is beyond definition—at least my God is. Sets of beliefs become merely  points of argument: think waste of time. Yes, I can define many of my beliefs. Many of them are Biblical. I do see the … Continue reading →

Mental Masturbation or anointed teaching – beware

Skilled Workman Posted on April 29, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

Mental Masturbation or anointed teaching – beware as it matters a lot. If your teaching gets you off and does not change the students, you’ve messed up, big time. For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the cleverness of the clever I will thwart.” Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For … Continue reading →

Jesus’ view on church leadership

Skilled Workman Posted on January 1, 2011 by David BergslandJanuary 1, 2011

Jesus gives us the most important aspects of church leadership The first aspect of leadership is found in the Gospels. Jesus emphatically told us: Don’t let anyone call you teacher, for you have one teacher—the Messiah [Matthew 23:10] We need to keep this at the forefront of our minds as we study church leadership. For Jesus is the leader. He is the head and we are merely the body—His Bride. At best we are stewards of gifts … Continue reading →

What to look for in a study bible

Skilled Workman Posted on September 27, 2010 by David BergslandSeptember 27, 2010

There are several attributes to consider when you buy a study bible. Of course, a lot of it has to do with personal style, readability, and comfort. But I thought a more objective list might prove useful: Leather-bound: nothing else will last long enough. If you do serious bible study a hard back book will last a few months, a paperback version maybe a year, a bonded leather version maybe two years, and a top quality genuine … Continue reading →

Web 2 Digital Bible: Glo from Zondervan

Skilled Workman Posted on October 18, 2009 by David BergslandOctober 18, 2009

I ran across this in my Christian professionals group at Linked In this morning. It is a visually exciting presentation to be sure. My only question is: Can it really be used? I saw no place to add notes, new crossreferences or any of the other things necessary for a real study bible. I’ve included a scan of one of the pages in one of my bibles to show you what I mean. It may be that … Continue reading →
