Women's Bible Study


 
September 2009

Hi!

Our Women's Bible Study is just finishing 'The Grace Awakening' by Chuck Swindoll. (It's one of the most uplifting books I've read in a long time!). In the past we have done several Bible Studies put together by Beth Moore, including 'A Woman's Heart, God's Dwelling Place' which is a 10 week study of the Tabernacle. We learned so much from that particular one that we wanted to do something similar. Because I also am a member of a Messianic Jewish Congregation, I decided to take the Torah Study Notes from there & combine them with my own material for our Bible Study. My reasons for this is that everything in the New Testament stems from the first 5 books of the Bible, & if you don't grasp those first 5 books in the Old Testament, there's a whole lot of stuff in the New Testament that will go completely over your head! So... here goes...

With that said, let me give you some insight into how we do things in our little Women's Bible Study: It's located in Alberton, Montana. We live in a rural community & most of us live some distance from our next door neighbors, so when we get together for Bible Study, we spend the first hour visiting & sharing prayer requests & praying. And because it's a rural community, etc, not everybody can get there exactly at 9:30 when it starts. We always finish at noon because there are some who go to 'seniors' for lunch, which is a few doors down the street. So... sometimes we manage to get 90 minutes of Bible Study in, & sometimes less, but we are all in agreement that God is the owner of time & He is in control of the situation! As for me, I'm in my 50's. Sometimes I teach the Bible Study, & sometimes I just start the conversation, & then those that are older than me God uses to 'teach' the Bible Study, & I learn a thing or two that I didn't know before! We have a lot of fun! Generally, we go over each section & let those who want to share their insights, do so. Quite often it takes 2 or 3 weeks to get through one chapter or one lesson, depending on the subject, & what the LORD has in mind. The record was the last study we did by Beth Moore (mentioned above). When I got to the part where she gave an overview of the early part of Genesis on her way to Leviticus, I buried my head in the study book & groaned because she had left out so much about Noah & company, & I just knew I was going to have to fill in the blanks! ...so that's how I got started teaching Creation Science at the Women's Bible Study... It took us about a year & a half to get through 'A Woman's Heart, God's Dwelling Place'!

One last thing: If you have some insights you would like to share, please e-mail them to thewelderswife@w-rocs.org. [We might even put them up on the web site along with some that we've come up with.] If you have questions or prayer requests, you are welcome to send them too. We'll do our best to answer questions & hold you up in prayer. On the subject line of the e-mail please put 'Women's Bible Study'.

    The past 2 months have been incredibly busy & a heart felt labor of love. Because of this, I haven't had time to up-load recent insights gleaned, but, here’s what we covered today: This morning we were comparing Revelation 16 with the plagues of Egypt. Then we went on to the next couple of chapters of Revelation where it talks about how during the Tribulation, Babylon has become the center of World Trade, & when she is destroyed, the world’s merchants & ship masters mourn because she was making them rich. Babylon is about 60 miles south of Baghdad. At the moment it’s an archeological site that is somewhat of a tourist attraction. You can see it on Google Earth. Recently there has been talk about developing the site. Get ready... According to the scriptures, it’s going to become far more than a ‘World Heritage Park’! Another thought to add to that is that the 10 horns mentioned in Rev 17:12 are the neighboring Muslim nations.

  4. EXODUS 13:17 to 17:16 B'shalach (When he let go)

    We are still working our way through this lesson. In-between this one and the last one we went through the book called ‘Christ in the Passover’ written by Ceil and Moishe Rosen. [I was able to order old copies through Amazon.com . We used the original version.] About half way through the book I decided to do a mini version of an actual modern Passover Seder, because our group needed the experience. It was right after Beth Tephila celebrated Passover. (At Beth Tephila we use real lamb that has been koshered. I was also able to include some of that with our mini version.) It was fun! Then the following week we continued through the book.
    Recently we also covered the topic of Noah’s Ark because it was in the news and my Genesis 10 research on volcanic activity on Mt Ararat (It’s in the Turning over every stone’ section of this web site).
    And, LORD willing, Tuesday Louis’ wife is going to come and do a presentation on ‘The Feasts of Israel’, which is part of this portion of Exodus.
