Recently our host Bill Petri spoke at a Bible Conference in Northeast Ohio. At that conference our dear friend and brother Phil Scranton did a message that so impressed our host he wanted to share it with you, our listeners! While reading through the first chapter of Genesis the reader is introduced to three different realms. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the only person to have been a citizen of these three realms, why? What is the significance?…
Today's special guest Ulric Petri joins our host, Bill Petri, to discuss several Bible topics. Some of the topics are collectivism versus individualism, The Book of Ruth, how a soulish Christian remains a child and several other topics. It is a fascinating discussion that allows the listeners to listen in on what a true discussion of the Scriptures looks like.…
Socialism is an economic system that is slowly but steadily gaining in popularity with our younger generations. The rise of political figures like AOC, and Bernie Sanders continue to drive socialism in the USA. With its increasing popularity we must ask, "What does the Bible teach about it?"
Christianity as a whole has been very confused as to who the bride of Christ is. Some say it is the church, others say it is Israel, and still others say it is both. We need to ask, "What says the Scriptures." It is only through a very in-depth study of the words used that we can come to an answer. Please make sure to give us a like, and make sure to follow us!…
Most of us have heard some preacher, pastor, or teacher claim that Jesus spoke about "hell" more than anyone. It is a very curious claim for two reasons: It causes many Christians to leave their brain at the door and stop investigating the issue. It is NOT TRUE!!! In fact, Jesus never spoke of hell as it is traditionally taught. Considering these realities, it is important to examine the context of each of Jesus' eleven "hell" passages. Do not forget to give us a like, or better yet why not follow us!…
The vast majority of Christians will trace the conflict between Arabs and Jews in the Middle East back to Isaac and Ishmael. Considering the current situation in the middle east, the subject of the Biblical roots of the conflict is a timely one. For this reason, we need to examine the role of doctrinal interpretations, particularly concerning the role of Ishmael. Did the patriarchs determine the fate of the Arabs, Jews, and modern nations? Just what does the Scripture say about this topic?…
For far too long the Body of Christ has misunderstood and misapplied the Abrahamic Covenant. This has led to a failure in our understanding of the relationship between the Body of Christ and Israel. It has also led to sometimes very foolish foreign policies by the United States of America. The Bible clearly teaches the Body of Christ and Israel are different, what are the ramifications of this in our understanding of this covenant?…
Vast numbers of Christians fail to grasp the significance of the Levitical offerings. Failure to grasp the types is a failure to grasp some profound truths about our Savior, Jesus Christ. The Grain offering is one of these offerings. What is it trying to show us about Jesus Christ?
Using Biblical examples and personal experience today's guest host, Debbie Petri talks about what makes a good mother. This 175th episode of Differing Things is sure to uplift and encourage all the mothers in our listening audience!
The relationship between the body, soul, and spirit is the subject of many Biblical passages. It explains why the Law could never change an individual, and why Grace cannot fail. How does the relationship between the body, soul, and spirit impact our Christian life. What roll does the soul play in our Christian Walk? Can a true believer have a wandering soul? This is the conclusion of this very important topic.…
In the sixth chapter of Ecclesiastes the writer of the book refers to a wandering soul. What does this mean? How does the soul impact our Christian life? What is our soul and how does it relate to God, and how does He relate to it? Many individuals have a very flawed understanding of the human soul. Recently our host Bill Petri did an in-depth study on this topic.…
The five offerings show us in type many truths about the offering of Jesus Christ on the cross. What does the burnt offering represent and how does it show us Christ? How is Jesus Christ the Priest, offeror, and offering? What is the difference between an offering and a sacrifice? How are the types fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ? Our host Bill Petri and guest John Ewen discuss this very profound and topic.…
The brokenness of humanity leads to pain, both physical and emotional. It is an inevitable part of the human experience and holds a significant place in the spiritual journey of believers. Throughout the pages of Scripture, pain is often depicted as a tool used by God to refine, teach, and draw His people closer to Him. This Differing Things Podcast will explore the multifaceted role of pain in spiritual growth, as illustrated in Scripture.…
Local churches have continued to struggle when it comes to dealing with those who are dealing with mental health issues. Far too often local church leaders allow prejudice, stigmas, and misinformation impact their ability to deal with a population of individuals in dire need. Our Host Bill Petri and Guest Host Scott Morton discuss the severity of mental health in America, and what local churches should do to help those suffering.…
What is the "mystery" (secret) of which the Apostle Paul speaks and how can we understand it? In this episode of Differing Things, we will examine this topic by asking a series of questions: Who is this mystery for? Where did the mystery originate? Why is the mystery referred to as a secret? When and why was the mystery planned? When was the mystery revealed? What is the mystery about? Why is the mystery so important? How are the things of God embodied in the mystery?…
In 1 Corinthians 1:1-2,9 we read of three callings of God: (1) Paul's call to apostleship, (2) to sainthood, and (3) to fellowship. It is important for us as believers to look at these three callings and understand their importance.
It would take a careful student of Paul's life many volumes of books to express all of the leadership lessons that can be gleaned from his life and ministry. Church leaders can learn much going through the Apostle Paul's life, and how he demonstrated leadership for us.
Since the Biden administrations early years, we have been told that inflation is either insignificant, transitory, or a short-term pain for a long-term stable economy. But now, almost all economists and government leaders will acknowledge that inflation is here to stay for the foreseeable future. How should we think about inflation from the Bible's perspective? What lessons can we learn from the past? How can we prepare for the future?…
The Bible is full of figures of speech which have not been brought into our translations accurately. One of these figures of speech is hyperbole, to exaggerate or amplify something for effect. Many of the figures of speech in the Bible border what we in the West would consider a lie, but not so from an Eastern point of view. These figures of speech and cultural differences can indeed make Bible study difficult. Recognizing these figures of speech and cultural differences helps the Bible student understand a passage in a profound way they never could have without that understanding.…
Very few of us ever think about how different a modern Western economy is from a Near East Ancient economy. How do these differences impact our understanding and application of Biblical passages that deal with money, wealth, and economics? This topic is the focus of this edition of Differing Things.

The Lord's Prayer is a prayer millions of individuals will recite every week. Unfortunately, most have no idea what the prayer even means. An in-depth look at this prayer will show that this prayer does not apply to the Body of Christ. It will also show that this prayer is a prayer about a future time called the tribulation or Daniel's 70th week. Please join us as we look at a very misunderstood passage of Scripture!…
The topic of trade wars and the use of protective tariffs have not been a conversation that Christians typically want to have. Some just do not think it fits in any theological category. But during the reign of Cyrus the Great tariffs were an issue as Ezra tells us. So, just what do tariffs do? Are they a weapon to use against other nations? What does Scripture teach on this topic?…
We have all heard the expression, "He is his own worst enemy." It is a figure of speech used to express the reality of an individual's own attitude or action is working against them. The Bible speaks of those who oppose themselves. How does a Christian in this Dispensation of Grace "oppose themselves?"…
One of the seemingly inescapable states of the human condition is that of grief. No matter what we do we cannot escape the grasp grief will eventually have on our lives. Why then should we continue to move forward?
The One Great requirement of the Word is grounded on the fact that it is "the Word of Truth." This fact is so stated in 2 Timothy 2:15 to imply that, unless the Word is thus tightly divided, we shall not get "truth;" and that we shall get its truth only in proportion to the measure in which we divide it rightly/correctly.…
Recently, a great debate has been raging in the United Kingdom's Parlaiment about Euthanasia and assisted suicide. This debate has also begun within churches throughout western democracies. Christians can sometimes be lured into supporting assisted suicide and euthanasia, believing that it is compassionate. But what does the Bible say about this?…
January 1,2025 brought horrific tragedy and immense heartache to many people in the New Orleans area. What purpose does profound suffering have? Why does suffering even have to occur? Does God have an answer to suffering? Today's Differing Things will look at these very profound questions.
Psalm 71 is a lesson on how to grow old and remain productive! Since the vast majority of us want to grow old it is important to consider the lessons it gives us. As a New Year approaches let us give ourselves a gift, the gift of heeding the Biblical lessons we should all learn.

In 1865, William C. Dix wrote the Christmas Carol What Child is This. In 1871 it was set to the tune of Greensleeves a traditional English folk song. The lyrics of this song prompt us to contemplate the identity, the person, and work of the baby in the manger. Is this child truly a holy infant or a mere holiday infant? In Galatians 4:4-5 the Apostle Paul answers these questions for us> Do not forget to follow us and leave your comments!…
