The Bible Study Hour
with Dr. James Boice
An Oracle
Monday, March 16, 2026
Deceit or delight? We have a choice! This week on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice, we’re taking a closer look at Psalm 36, where David describes the ways of the wicked, in contrast with the righteousness of God. We can choose the path of deceit, or we can pursue God’s ways. When we commit ourselves to following God, His unending faithfulness and unfailing love are our reward.

Rejoicing in Trials
"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:10-12
The Bible tells us that those who are persecuted are blessed, but that message is certainly contrary to the message the world believes. So how is it that Christians can rejoice in trials? In this booklet, Dr. Boice describes what it means to be persecuted for Christ, tells us how to rejoice in persecutions, and challenges us to stand up and be counted.
