Welcome to Empowered Bible Studies

Bible study is essential to our Christian walk. As we study God's Word, our personal relationship with God grows deeper and deeper. It empowers us to live for the Lord in every aspect of our lives. This is what has inspired me to do an online Bible study.

Many years ago my husband introduced me to a commentary on the book of Colossians and I was so blessed as the Scripture came to life before my very eyes. Since that day we have developed an extensive library and enjoy studying God's Word.

I have prepared some Bible studies that I would like to share with you. My prayer is that they will bless you as much as they have blessed me in preparing them. I pray your life is touched and that it would inspire you to live every moment of every day for Christ.

Living unto the Lord

Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king. ~ 1 Peter 2:17


This section of our study concludes with a four-point summary of Christian citizenship.
~ First, Christians are to respect everyone; Believers should be conscious of the fact that each human has been uniquely created in God’s image.
~ Second, Christians are to love the brotherhood of believers, their brothers and sisters in Christ. God’s family members should love each other.
~ Third, Christians are to fear God. The verb ―fear (phobeisthe) here does not mean to be in terror, but awe and reverence that leads to obedience. One will never truly respect people until he reverences God.
~ Fourth, believers are to honor the king. The respect or ―honor due to all is especially to be given to those God has placed in authority.

Next we will be looking at 1 Peter 2:18-25 ~ look forward to continuing our study together. God bless
