Christian Bible Study Ministry

Welcome to the Christian Bible Study Ministry podcast! Today, we delve into the intriguing story of Balaam, a figure from the Old Testament known for his unique encounter with God’s will. Mentioned in both the Book of Numbers and the Book of Revelation, Balaam was summoned by Balak, the Moabite king, to curse Israel. Instead, he found himself torn between divine command and his own greed.

Despite being instructed by God to bless Israel, Balaam's desire for material gain led him astray, providing Balak the means to seduce Israel into sin. Join us as we explore Balaam's tale of temptation, his infamous interaction with a speaking donkey, and the consequences for those seduced by the 'way of Balaam'. Through this episode, we uncover lessons on obedience, faith, and the dangers of pursuing profit over God's will.
