In this Deep Dive edition of Every Word Podcast, Kevin Whitman continues our study of the Person and Ministry of the Holy Spirit, tracing Spirit baptism from John the Baptist’s announcement to Christ’s promise, its fulfillment at Pentecost, and Paul’s explanation in 1 Corinthians 12:13.

We examine:

• Jesus Christ as the promised Baptizer with the Holy Ghost.
• The distinction between baptism with the Holy Ghost and baptism with fire.
• Pentecost as an appointed event in God’s unfolding plan.
• How Acts 11 connects Pentecost with Christ’s promise.
• Why Spirit baptism, indwelling, and filling must be distinguished.
• Why speaking in tongues is not the universal evidence of Spirit baptism.
• The believer’s placement into the body of Christ at salvation.

Throughout the study, we follow the wording and context of Scripture, considering both the historical events in Acts and their doctrinal explanation in the epistles.

Key passages: John 14:16–17; Matthew 3:11–12; John 1:33; Acts 1:1–5; Acts 2; Acts 11:15–16; and 1 Corinthians 12:13.

All Scripture readings are from the King James Bible.

Join us every Tuesday and Thursday for our verse-by-verse study of 1 John, with additional Deep Dive editions and Handling the Word studies periodically.

#EveryWordPodcast #HolySpirit #SpiritBaptism

In this bonus edition of Every Word Podcast, Kevin Whitman introduces Handling the Word, a series about understanding Scripture faithfully.

Using Philippians 4:13 as an example, we examine why context matters. “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” speaks of Christ’s strength for contentment in abundance and need. It does not promise success in whatever ambition we choose.

We also consider Paul’s instruction concerning the handling of God’s Word in 2 Corinthians 4:2 and the Bereans’ example of searching the Scriptures in Acts 17:11.

Our purpose is to encourage careful listening, faithful teaching, and sound application. Before asking how a passage applies to us, we must understand what God is saying through the words He gave.

All Scripture readings are from the King James Bible.

Regular verse-by-verse episodes are available every Tuesday and Thursday, with additional bonus studies periodically.

#HandlingTheWord #BibleStudy #Philippians413

In this episode of Every Word Podcast, Kevin Whitman continues our verse-by-verse study of First John with a careful examination of 1 John 1:7.

We consider how God’s holiness and revealed truth establish the standard for our walk, why genuine fellowship involves shared submission to that truth, and how biblical separation can preserve faithfulness without excusing unkindness.

Walking in the light does not mean sinless perfection. It means living honestly before God, allowing His truth to expose what needs to change, and depending upon the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ. Our obedience cannot cleanse us; Christ’s once-for-all sacrifice remains wholly sufficient.

All Scripture readings are from the King James Bible.

New episodes are available every Tuesday and Thursday.

#EveryWordPodcast #BibleStudy #1John

In this episode of Every Word Podcast, Kevin Whitman continues our verse-by-verse study of First John, examining the declaration that “God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.”

We consider the distinction between the believer’s standing in Christ and the practical enjoyment of fellowship with God. Our relationship rests upon Christ’s finished work, but our daily walk matters.

This study explores God’s holiness, the relationship between truth and fellowship, and why walking in darkness involves more than outward moral conduct. Biblical truth is something we must live, not merely profess.

All Scripture readings are from the King James Bible.

New episodes are available every Tuesday and Thursday.

#EveryWordPodcast #1John #BibleStudy

In this bonus edition of Every Word Podcast, Kevin Whitman examines the ministry of the Holy Ghost in revelation, inspiration, and preservation. Beginning with Christ’s promise to His disciples in John 14:26, we trace the giving and enduring authority of God’s Word through passages including 1 Corinthians 2:9–13, 2 Peter 1:16–21, 2 Timothy 3:14–17, and Psalm 12.

We consider why inspiration extends to the words of Scripture themselves, how God used human writers without surrendering divine authorship, and the biblical promises that His Word endures.

Originally recorded for a Bible college class, this extended teaching session has been adapted for the podcast. All Scripture readings are from the King James Bible.

Regular verse-by-verse episodes are available every Tuesday and Thursday, with additional bonus studies exploring foundational Bible doctrines.

In this first episode of Every Word Podcast, Kevin Whitman begins a verse-by-verse study of 1 John 1:1–4 from the King James Bible. John declares the eternal Son who was with the Father and was manifested in the flesh - the One the apostles heard, saw, looked upon, and handled.

We examine why eternal life is inseparably bound up with Jesus Christ, why biblical fellowship rests upon the truth concerning His Person, and how that fellowship leads to fullness of joy.

Sound doctrine, fellowship with God, and Christian joy belong together.
