Our current study is on the book of Genesis. Grab your Bible and some note-taking materials and start your study by clicking on the audio links below. (or you
can use the Blue Letter Bible links for the scripture reference). There are also some study questions that go along with each session.
1)What were the two events that seem to preoccupy Peter in these two letters?
Why?
2)Explain the four nouns that speak of “power” and how do they differ?
3)Explain the seven virtues that occur in this epistle.
4)Explain the term, “due diligence” and what it requires.
5)In what way can the Transfiguration seem to be a “staff meeting” and, if so, what does it imply? Why were Moses and Elijah present?
6)What does Peter mean by “the more sure word of prophecy”?
7)What does Peter mean by no “private interpretation”?
8)Explain the analysis of composite probabilities used in these examples.
Discussion Questions:
(“Where two people agree, one is redundant”)
1)Can (and how) can a Christian “fall”?
2)In what way can the Transfiguration seem to be a “staff meeting” and, if so, what does it imply? Why were Moses and Elijah present?
3)Explain “the more sure word of prophecy”?
4)How do we know the Bible is the Word of God?
5)What does Peter mean by no “private interpretation”?
Candidate Research Projects:
(For the truly dedicated)
1)Compile a broader list that the eight examples used in this session, and synthesize the combinatorial probabilities involved.
2)The mathematical approach employed in this example is rather simplistic.The actual mathematics is more complex (and even more restrictive).Investigate the proper way to combine probabilities, using Bayes’ Theorem, and related algorithms.
