  • Summary

  • How should we dress as Christians? What’s our duty with the tithe? And how do we tame our unruly tongues?

    These are just three of many practical issues Scott Brown will address in his new podcast, Scripture Applied.

    Approximately five minutes in length, these short takes are designed to bring God’s Word to bear on a variety of important subjects. Drawing from sound exposition, Scott will give key scriptural insights designed to convict, instruct, and equip believers in their walk (2 Tim. 3:16-17).

    Scripture Applied is based on the truth that God’s Word is sure and sufficient (Ps. 119:89; 2 Tim. 3:16-17), having transforming power to save and guide us with the Holy Spirit’s aid (Heb. 4:12; Ps. 119:105; 1 Cor. 2:14). As such, we must embrace this life-nourishing testimony to joyfully thrive with strength and wisdom (Deut. 8:3; Ps. 19:7-11).

    The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul;
    The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;
    The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;
    The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes;
    The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
    The judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
    More to be desired are they than gold,
    Yea, than much fine gold;
    Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
    Moreover by them Your servant is warned,
    And in keeping them there is great reward. (Ps.19:7-11)

  • A Hated Doctrine in Romans 9

    A Hated Doctrine in Romans 9
    Nov 7 2024

    Election is one of the most hated doctrines of the Bible, because it’s an assault on man-centeredness. Because of this, many find Romans 9 disturbing. In this chapter, the Apostle Paul explains that election is a vindication of the justice of God, yet it’s also an exaltation of His grace in salvation. As we grapple with this text, the question we must ask is this: Would you rather have God who chooses you based on your righteousness or a God who chooses you in spite of your righteousness? The reality is any material advantages you have can’t save you, but Jesus Christ in His mercy is the only way to be rescued from your law-keeping—as you come to Him by faith alone.

    Scripture References: Romans 9:1-13,;Romans 4:3; Romans 2:28-29

  • Halloween - How Should Christians Respond?

    Halloween - How Should Christians Respond?
    Oct 31 2024

    In today’s world, you can’t escape being confronted with Halloween. Whether you’re shopping with your family, or driving past your neighbor’s lawn, you’ll find its ghoulish images on display. Using Scripture alone, how should Christians think about it, when the word “Halloween” doesn't appear in the Bible? God’s Word declares we’re not to “learn to follow the abominations of [pagan] nations (Deut. 18:9) or “walk in their ordinances” (Lev. 18:3). Because Halloween is an explicitly demonic and pagan practice, how should we think about its dark culture and walk in the light?

    Scripture References: Psalm 106: 35-37; Deut. 18:9; Leviticus 18:3; Romans 12:2; 1 Peter 2:9

  • How the Holy Spirit is Always Working

    How the Holy Spirit is Always Working
    Oct 24 2024

    Too often, Christians view the Holy Spirit, narrowly, as the source to set them on fire for God and make them satisfied. Such a view shortchanges the Holy Spirit’s role. The truth is, the Spirit of God is working quietly in the background in every part of the believer’s life. In Romans 8, Paul gives five powerful ways the Spirit ministers to Christians. First, the Spirit makes us free from sin and death. Second, the Spirit changes the things we want to think about. Third, the Spirit puts to death the deeds of the body. Fourth, the Spirit bears witness to our adoption as sons. Fifth, the Spirit helps us in our suffering. And, sixth, the Spirit helps us in our weakness when we don’t know how to pray. What a blessing it is to have the Holy Spirit of God!
