This 2015 series explores how the hand of God can be seen moving among the nations, guiding world events toward the fulfillment of His purpose. With a focus on prophecy, history, and present-day developments, the sessions open the Scriptures to reveal how God’s plan has been unfolding across centuries. Listeners are invited to recognize the “visible finger of God” in the rise and fall of empires, in the restoration of Israel, and in the preparation of the world for the return of christ. Each class provides both a sweeping perspective and practical encouragement, urging disciples to remain awake and watchful in these last days.

This evening program, Babylon’s Last Night, explores the dramatic events of Daniel chapter 5 and their fulfillment in history. Babylon, once the jewel of ancient civilization with its towering walls, river gates, and the famed Ishtar Gate and hanging gardens, stood as a monument to human pride. Yet its downfall came in a single night, exactly as foretold by the prophets. Belshazzar’s feast of arrogance, where sacred vessels from the temple in Jerusalem were defiled, ended with the mysterious handwriting on the wall—God’s verdict of judgment. That same night, the Medo-Persian army diverted the Euphrates, entered through the unguarded river gates, and overthrew the city. Belshazzar, unrepentant and drunken, was slain like a commoner, fulfilling prophecy to the letter. The study highlights how archaeology and history confirm the Bible’s account and shows how Babylon’s fall foreshadows the judgment of the latter-day Babylon described in Revelation. It is both a warning against pride and a reassurance that God rules in the kingdoms of men, raising up and removing rulers according to His will. Above all, the narrative points forward to the greater deliverance still to come, when Christ will return to bring an everlasting kingdom that will never be destroyed.

This evening program, Computer Assisted Bible Study, explores how modern technology can be a powerful tool for engaging more deeply with God’s word. Using Bible software such as the Logos system and the Christadelphian Works CD, the speaker demonstrates how digital concordances, lexicons, and reference works can make scripture study faster and more effective. With simple searches, cross-references, and access to classic Christadelphian writings, students can trace themes, compare translations, and uncover the meaning of original Hebrew and Greek words. Yet the lecture emphasizes that computers do not replace the Bible itself; they are only tools to aid study. True understanding comes from reading the scriptures in context, marking them in our Bibles, and meditating on their message. The class closes with a reminder that technology, wisely used, can help believers focus their hearts and minds on the coming kingdom and strengthen their walk with God.

This lecture, God is Our Refuge and Strength, takes its theme from Psalm 46 and explores how believers can find stability and hope in a world full of turmoil. Against the backdrop of troubled nations, personal trials, and the uncertainty of life, the message emphasizes that God alone is a secure refuge and a present help in times of need. Drawing from vivid scriptural images of stormy seas, shaking mountains, and roaring waves, the speaker contrasts the fear and anxiety of the world with the calm assurance offered by God’s presence. Through examples from scripture—such as Jesus calming the storm, the faith of Ruth, and the endurance of Paul—the lesson shows that God is both a shield and a stronghold for His people. The exhortation concludes with a call to set aside the distractions of the world, to renew our trust in God, and to lift our vision to the coming kingdom, when His glory will fill the earth and His people will dwell in safety under His everlasting arms.

This 2000 teen class series, Here Am I Send Me, challenges young people to think seriously about their walk with God and their place in His purpose. Through the lives of biblical examples—Ruth, David, Joseph, Daniel, and Isaiah—the series shows how faith, courage, and commitment can shape choices even in difficult or tempting circumstances. With a blend of practical exhortation and prophetic vision, these classes encourage teens to dedicate themselves to God’s service and to live with the hope of His coming kingdom firmly before them.
