The First Principles Of The Oracles Of God

Are you building your faith on a solid foundation—or spiritual quicksand? In this eye-opening episode of That’s In The Bible?, Pastor Bruce Varner returns with a powerful study that no serious believer should miss: the First Principles of the Oracles of God.

What are these “first principles” mentioned in Hebrews 5:12, and why have so many Christians lost sight of them? Pastor Varner breaks it down with clarity and conviction, challenging us to revisit the core truths that lay the groundwork for spiritual maturity.

🔹 The Bible as Divine History – Uncover how God's word tracks real, historical transitions with eternal meaning.
🔹 Rightly Dividing the Testaments – Understand the critical distinctions between the Old and New Testaments and how they impact your daily walk.
🔹 Context is King – Learn why not every verse applies to every believer at every time—and how to read the Bible the way God intended.

This episode is more than a study—it's a wake-up call to dig deeper, discern better, and grow stronger in the Word. Don’t settle for surface-level Christianity.

🎧 Tune in now—and rediscover the roots of your faith.
