Do you have what it takes to serve the Lord? Find out as we explore Zechariah’s vision of the lampstand and the important message it has for us today.
Can a Christian sin? If so, what are the consequences? Learn the answers to these questions and more as we dig deeper into Zechariah’s vision of Joshua.
Dr. McGee says, “Zechariah’s head may be ‘up in the clouds,’ but his prophecy helps us see ourselves down on earth with a much better perspective.” Learn more about the continuity between Zechariah’s seemingly separate visions and how they can help us walk with the Lord.
Zechariah’s visions continue with a look at the future of Israel. Learn more about the reign of the Prince of Peace and why this prophecy should encourage us as much as it encouraged the people of Israel.
Compared to New York, Paris, or Rome, the city of Jerusalem would hardly qualify as one of the world’s most popular cities, but in this study of Zechariah, we learn that in the future, Jerusalem will be “the center of the earth.” Hear how it will be rebuilt, restored, and inhabited after the Great Tribulation.
“Is world peace possible?” As we study Zechariah’s vision of the four horns and four workmen, Dr. J. Vernon McGee answers this question and reminds us that all prophecy must be put in light of God’s eternal program.
Even though there’ll be no peace in this world until Jesus returns, as believers we can have peace in our hearts when we allow Jesus to be our Lord and Savior. That’s one of the important things we’ll hear in this study of Zechariah’s first vision.
The book of Zechariah contains more messianic prophecies than any of the other minor prophets. In the dark day of discouragement which blanketed the remnant, Zechariah saw the glory in all of the rapture and vision of hope. Be encouraged by this Old Testament prophet and priest.
“Let’s be faithful and then let’s work.” That’s the wisdom our teacher, Dr. J. Vernon McGee leaves us with as we learn from the life of Zerubbabel and realize we may never know how important our work is for God.
Our study of important life lessons continues as we learn from Haggai how we today can make our hearts right with God and receive His blessings.
If you’re standing between a rock and a hard place today, you aren’t alone. Learn from Haggai that even in the hard places, we stand in the love of God. As Dr. McGee says, “Although His love may include a lot of hammering and chiseling—it’s all intended to make us more like Jesus.”
Some day in heaven when God is passing out rewards, who do you think might be one of the most honored persons? Paul? Peter? Maybe it’s someone you’ve never heard of and whose story has never been told. Dr. J. Vernon McGee gives us surprising insight to that future scene.
The writer of Proverbs says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” That’s the same important message we receive in this study from the Old Testament prophet Haggai who reminds us to obey and fear God in all we do.
God may be speaking to us today through our difficult circumstances, even as He spoke to the people through Haggai. That’s what we see as we study the people’s response to Haggai’s message from the Lord.
“Where are you headed? What are your goals in life?” These are some of the important questions we’ll ponder as the prophet, Haggai, reminds the people to work hard, avoid laziness, and obey God’s commands to put Him first.
What happens when God’s people become complacent and lazy? Dr. McGee shares the answer to this question as we hear Haggai speak some uncomfortable truth to religious and civil leaders that can be applied to our lives today.
Pragmatic. A man of action. Preacher and practicer. That’s how one might describe the prophet Haggai. As our teacher Dr. McGee says, “Haggai doesn’t have his head in the clouds, he gets right down to the nitty gritty, where the rubber meets the road.” Learn more about Haggai and his relationship to Zechariah and Malachi.
How can believers stand for God in difficult days? Dr. McGee says the answer is really very simple: “He should be Lord of our lives. We should give Him glory. We should tell how wonderful He is, of his might and power. We need to hold Him up to the world.”
In this study, Jude provides an overview of man’s threefold nature and reminds us that our best protection against apostates is studying the Word and praying in the Spirit.
“We cannot please God in the flesh. Only when we yield to Him can we come to the place where He can use us,” advises Dr. McGee. Learn to follow the example of the apostles, NOT apostates, as Jude warns us to stay away from those who cause divisions in the church and turn from the Word of God, calling it foolishness.

I don't see The Gospel of John?
wow!!! I am dealing with depression and loneliness at the moment , and this is exactly what I need ! I'm speechless.
I once heard a pastor say with a touch of humor that, if you're down, you should probably stay away from Lamentations and go instead to the Thessalonian books. And, in gaining insight from Dr. McGee into how right on God allowed the people in this Church to be, I can see why! They were super-young believers whose only real struggle was with an accurate understanding of how God would end the present age - other than that, they sound like they are really established in their Faith by God's Grace and Power. They are a serious encouragement to me and my fam in how to live for and in Christ in the midst of a less-than-ideal world. Good stuff, by Mr. J. Vernon McGee! Btw, that same pastor said that, when Christians actually read the book of Lamentations, they should do so only after finishing the Thessalonian epistles. 😆
This book, I admit, is my least favorite book. I'm sure there's some very good insight that Mr. McGee can offer.
Love my faithful servant of the Lord!!!!
