Study the Bible with Arthur Bailey

Today, our real challenge is that we cannot abide or continue in His Word if we have not learned His Word. We learn of Yeshua through discipleship. Yeshua told His Disciples to follow Him. They heard what He taught and saw the miracles, signs, and wonders. Then Yeshua sent them out and they performed miracles, signs, and wonders as a result of their discipleship. We must abide in the truth that we learn through discipleship. To abide is to cont...

YeHoVaH desires for every last one of us to be successful in our faith walk. When you begin to walk with the Master, it puts space between you and people who are not willing to walk with the Master the way that He desires. John is trying to communicate to us that the condemnation is because light has come into the world and men love darkness rather than light because their deeds are evil. Those who refuse to receive Yeshua as the Son of Elohim will die in their sins.&...

While Yeshua was teaching in the Temple Court, the Scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery. They said unto Him, “Master this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses, in the Law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what sayest thou?” They were tempting Him that they might have reason to accuse Him. But Yeshua said, “He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” Because they only bring the woman and not ...

We continue with John's testimony of what he saw and experienced as a follower of Messiah. John introduced us to the Word, tells us that the Word was Elohim, the Word was in the beginning, and then John tells us that the Word manifested itself in the human form of the Messiah Yeshua. John indicates, by capitalizing the word “Prophet”, that Yeshua is the Prophet that Elohim spoke about to Moses. In this last portion of Chapter 7, the Pharisees and Chief Priests ...

Amongst themselves, the people acknowledged the plot of the religious leaders as Yeshua was speaking at the Feast. Some were perplexed because they knew the rulers’ intents, but Yeshua was speaking openly. Some wondered if the rulers had finally accepted Yeshua to be the Messiah. Deuteronomy 18:18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put My words in His mouth; and He shall speak unto them all that I shall command Him.&nbsp...

This teaching addresses several issues related to Yeshua and the keeping of the Law. Did Yeshua keep the Law of YeHoVaH or was He a lawbreaker? Were the Pharisees and Sadducees keeping the Law of YeHoVaH or some other law? Was there a difference between the law of the Pharisees and the law of the Sadducees? Did the people of Yeshua’s day observe the Law given to Moses or the Law of the Pharisees and Sadducees? What do people mean when they say that those who k...

In this portion of John, we see that Yeshua knew the world hated Him and that His brothers were a part of that world that hated Him. At the Feast celebrations, no man spoke openly of Him for fear of the religious leaders. The religious leaders had made open threats about killing Yeshua and they threatened to kick anyone who acknowledged Yeshua out of the synagogue. Over the course of Yeshua’s lifetime, He would have kept all of the Commanded Feasts in their appointed times.&...

We pointed out last week that Messiah, the Word, became flesh. When He says eat of my flesh and drink of my blood, He's speaking to them words that are Spirit, but they are hearing His words in the natural. When you eat of His Word, consume His Word, you're eating His body and drinking His blood. He dwells in you because you are consuming His Word! It's not something you do once a month, or once a quarter, or once a year, it's something you do every single day, all day.&nbs...

From the time of Moses up until the time of Yeshua, the people of Israel were looking for the one that Moses and the Prophets spoke about. This Prophet, the Almighty was going to send, the Children of Israel must Shema! Yeshua spent the bulk of His Ministry speaking to people who supposedly had the Word, but were following the traditions they had been taught as the Word. The people had eyes but could not see and ears but could not hear. They couldn't see the Messiah who wa...

When Yeshua found out that the people were planning to try to force Him to be King, He departed and went into the mountain. Sometimes you have to get away from those who have an agenda for you that is contrary to your agenda. It's dangerous if you don't have an agenda from YeHoVaH because you will find yourself being manipulated to fulfill somebody else's agenda. Yeshua sent His Disciples away by ship. The ensuing events of Yeshua and Peter walking on the water hold life-le...

It is evident in Scripture that 5,000 men were fed, but there was also an unnumbered amount of women and children present for this miracle as recorded by John. From the dialog recorded between Yeshua and Andrew, we see that Yeshua knew he was about to perform a miracle amongst His Disciples in the presence of the multitude. Matthew, Mark, and Luke record Yeshua looking to heaven and giving thanks to His and our Father. The miraculous thing about miracles is that they are une...

In this passage, Yeshua establishes His defense of who He is based on the testimonies of five distinct and valid sources. John the Baptist Yeshua’s own works His Father, YeHoVaH The Scriptures Moses Yeshua spoke of John as a witness, but spoke of His works given to Him by Father as a greater witness than John’s testimony. Our works should bear witness of us just as Yeshua’s works bore witness of Him. When you are speaking things that are not in ...

In the Bible, there are times when Yeshua is referred to as Son; there are times when Yeshua is looked at as Elohim. In this passage of John Chapter 5, Yeshua mentions Father ten times. Yeshua makes it clear that the work He is doing is not independent of His and our Father YeHoVaH. There are people today who see the work of Yeshua/Jesus as independent of the work of Father. In fact, there are those who declare, that as a New Testament believer, they only have t...
