Differing Things

A Conversation

Today's special guest Ulric Petri joins our host, Bill Petri, to discuss several Bible topics. Some of the topics are collectivism versus individualism, The Book of Ruth, how a soulish Christian remains a child and several other topics. It is a fascinating discussion that allows the listeners to listen in on what a true discussion of the Scriptures looks like.

Socialism and the Bible

Socialism is an economic system that is slowly but steadily gaining in popularity with our younger generations. The rise of political figures like AOC, and Bernie Sanders continue to drive socialism in the USA. With its increasing popularity we must ask, "What does the Bible teach about it?"

Who is the Bride Of Christ

Christianity as a whole has been very confused as to who the bride of Christ is. Some say it is the church, others say it is Israel, and still others say it is both. We need to ask, "What says the Scriptures." It is only through a very in-depth study of the words used that we can come to an answer. Please make sure to give us a like, and make sure to follow us!

Jesus’ Hell Passages in Context

Most of us have heard some preacher, pastor, or teacher claim that Jesus spoke about "hell" more than anyone. It is a very curious claim for two reasons:It causes many Christians to leave their brain at the door and stop investigating the issue.It is NOT TRUE!!! In fact, Jesus never spoke of hell as it is traditionally taught. Considering these realities, it is important to examine the context of each of Jesus' eleven "hell" passages. Do not forget to give us a like, or better yet why not follow us!

The Ishmael Myths

The vast majority of Christians will trace the conflict between Arabs and Jews in the Middle East back to Isaac and Ishmael. Considering the current situation in the middle east, the subject of the Biblical roots of the conflict is a timely one. For this reason, we need to examine the role of doctrinal interpretations, particularly concerning the role of Ishmael. Did the patriarchs determine the fate of the Arabs, Jews, and modern nations? Just what does the Scripture say about this topic?

Israel Is Not a Blessed Nation

For far too long the Body of Christ has misunderstood and misapplied the Abrahamic Covenant. This has led to a failure in our understanding of the relationship between the Body of Christ and Israel. It has also led to sometimes very foolish foreign policies by the United States of America. The Bible clearly teaches the Body of Christ and Israel are different, what are the ramifications of this in our understanding of this covenant?

The Grain Offering

Vast numbers of Christians fail to grasp the significance of the Levitical offerings. Failure to grasp the types is a failure to grasp some profound truths about our Savior, Jesus Christ. The Grain offering is one of these offerings. What is it trying to show us about Jesus Christ?

What Are Mothers?

Using Biblical examples and personal experience today's guest host, Debbie Petri talks about what makes a good mother. This 175th episode of Differing Things is sure to uplift and encourage all the mothers in our listening audience!

The Vanity of a Wandering Soul Part 2

The relationship between the body, soul, and spirit is the subject of many Biblical passages. It explains why the Law could never change an individual, and why Grace cannot fail. How does the relationship between the body, soul, and spirit impact our Christian life. What roll does the soul play in our Christian Walk? Can a true believer have a wandering soul? This is the conclusion of this very important topic.

The Vanity of a Wandering Soul

In the sixth chapter of Ecclesiastes the writer of the book refers to a wandering soul. What does this mean? How does the soul impact our Christian life? What is our soul and how does it relate to God, and how does He relate to it? Many individuals have a very flawed understanding of the human soul. Recently our host Bill Petri did an in-depth study on this topic.
