Happy 2026 BCBibleStudy.com friends. We are going to be kicking off our spring semester DCW men’s group Wednesday 2/4/26 starting with Rev 14 and going through Rev 22 on 3/25/26. This allows for me to lead a Zoom BC Passover service on 4/1/26 for Easter 2026.
If this works out, I think you will all enjoy it greatly as part of Holy Week 2026. I’ve led quite a number of Christian Passover Services over the years. Easter makes so much more sense when you include Passover. Make plans now to be available for this! I wonder how many have attempted a Zoom Passover with bourbon and cigars. 😊
This means we will have four remaining Wednesdays for the rest of April TBD ending on 4/29/26 – content to be determined.
Looking forward to seeing you all on 2/4.
Session 2 – 9/3/25 – Sevens Everywhere
Session 1 – 8/27/25 – Revelation According to Heiser
It’s getting close to men’s BCBibleStudy.com time again. I do not want you to miss 8/27/25 when we kick off our next exciting study. Put it on your calendar now. Zoom invites will be sent to active members at 6:40p – session starts promptly at 7p. We will be also providing the same content through our LingerLonger podcast this year.
We are going to be covering Dr. Heiser’s last (and perhaps best) work – an examination of Revelation. Heiser always hated Revelation because it always erupted into typical questions about end times and violently differencing end times viewpoints. Heiser tolerated none of that and neither will we.
Rather, these next two semesters will be examining Revelation in a scholarly level that few have ever experienced. For example, our first session will almost all be consumed with Rev 1:4. Read it well and try to figure out why we could have an almost entire session on this one verse. You will be shocked.
Our text will be the book of Revelation and Heiser’s Naked Bible podcast starting with number 353 – https://nakedbiblepodcast.com/podcast/naked-bible-353-revelation-14/

Session 12 – 5/7/25
Our final session of the spring semester deals with the the Sin of the Watchers and the Apocalypse. This is a great study and it totally links into our fall semester where we deal with Heiser’s analysis of Revelation.

Session 11 – 4/30/25
We are back on with BCBibleStudy.com this Wednesday night, 4/30/25 with a study about the Watchers and the Antichrist. As perhaps Heiser is best at – yes there is a surprising connection with these theological points of study.
If you think about it, there is huge spiritual warfare going on between the original serif who deceived Eve but got Adam to fall (Gen 3) – and the fallen watchers with their Nephilim bastard children (Gen 6:1-4) – along with the fallen Elohim at Babel (Ps 82). No wonder Paul could reference all of these separate domains of evil (Eph 6:12).
Don’t miss Wednesday’s study of how Heiser ties all of these together.

4/23/25
Session skipped for the funeral of Lyn’s father – Full Bird Colonel Robert Irving Channon – age 99.
Session 10 – 4/16/25
How many ways and times have you been baptized? Chances are that if you have been around churches for decades, you have a story about this.
This week in BCBibleStudy.com, we examine baptism – not from a correct way or a requirement viewpoint – but how such is a rather impressive and active form of spiritual warfare to the believer.
This session will likely add a lot of meaning to your Easter Holiday this year. You can’t miss this!

Session 9 – 4/9/25
This week’s BCBibleStudy.com study regarding women’s head coverings will undoubtedly be the most funny, inciteful, and revealing study in our BC history. Seriously, you can’t miss this study.

Session 8 – 4/2/25
This Wednesday’s BCBibleStudy.com will consider the origins of human depravity. Many denominations are rather rigid on this point and often miss some of the nuisances of how our human condition came about and more importantly, what the Gospel does to reverse it.

Session 7 – 3/26/25
Wow, last Wednesday’s BCBibleStudy.com might have been the best yet, certainly the most funny. Who knew the begats could be so interesting! This Wednesday, we will concentrate on The Watchers and familiar events Jesus’ ministry that happened at Mount Hermon. This may be our deepest dive yet into spiritual warfare. Do not miss this one.

Session 6 – 3/19/25
This Wednesday night at BCBibleStudy.com, we will be studying Jesus’ genealogy – the begats. I think most people would rather read Leviticus than the begats – haha. However, I can assure you, Heiser’s analysis of these ancestries is beyond ‘interesting’ and involves SEX in surprising ways. Perfect for a men’s small group.
In particular, we will be looking at Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Bathsheba – the how’s and why’s Matthew included these women in the messianic genealogy.

Session 5 – 3/12/25
This Wednesday (3/12/25) at BCBibleStudy.com we will rehash Jesus’ likely birthday (according to Heiser) and its relationship to the sin of the watchers. At the end of last fall, we went through what turned out to be a very popular study from an astronomical survey of Rev 12. In Reversing Hermon, there is additional remarkable detail that shows how the ANE believers and gentiles would have interpreted heavenly events of 3bc.

Session 5 – 3/5/25
Last week, we took a deep dive into the Nephilim in BCBibleStudy.com. This Wednesday, 3/5/25, we will take a deep dive into a review of material covered so far. Then we will look into the Mesopotamian propaganda that endeavored to re-write or re-interpret the sin of the watchers into “great things” the Culture Heroes (Nephilim) of old brought to humanity.
Welcome to a critique of the Babylonian Spin Room and how the Bible directly targets this propaganda clarifying it as depravity that the Messiah will reverse leading to God’s kingdom restored on earth.

Session 4 – 2/26/25
Finally, we may have good weather to have a BC out on our traditional porch. This week, we take a deep dive into the text of Enoch 1. If you have never read these texts, I think you will be as surprised as I was the first time I read them.
Its like hearing all your life that Gandalf said None Shall Pass or Dumbledore said if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy or when Captain James T. Kirk yelled KHAAAN! Then you go an read these books and get the rest of the story.
In a similar way, Enoch fills in may blanks to the quotes from Gen 6:1-4, Peter, Jude, and perhaps even Jesus himself.
This Wednesday, we will take that deeper dive into Enoch and perhaps fill in some blanks.

Session 3 – 2/19/25 Report
The Nephilim brought 11 men to the study. We introduced lots of charts to explain Heiser’s interpretation of the Hebrew NPL. I can send these to you in a power point – but will be trying to figure out how to add them to this web site.

Session 2 – 2/12/25 Report
We had 14 men setting a record at BCBibleStudy.com last week. What a night!
This week, we take a deep dive into the Nephilim before and after the flood. Bourbon is going to be helpful for this study I’m sure! How could you miss this one?

Session 2 – 2/12/25
What a night we had for our kick off of BCBibleStudy.com last week. I had trouble recording it on Zoom, but did go through the content with my wife Lyn for our Linger Longer Podcast. Click g1z.us/LL and select the Hermon Intro if you would like to revisit it.
This Wednesday night, we get into Reversing Hermon which will focus specifically on Gen 6:1-4. Few verses in the bible raise as many questions as this passage. More so probably with a bit of BC in the mix with our men’s group.
Also, the weather is looking a bit iffy for this Wednesday, so we may not have a local gathering this week – but rather do the class totally by zoom. I’ll send the locals a text probably by 5p confirming one way or another.
Expect the zoom link to be sent around 6:40p ish.
Spring Small Group 2025 – Starting 2/4/25
This spring, we will begin studying Reversing Hermon by Dr. Michael Heiser. This is a seminary level book that will not disappoint for meaty bible study (Heb 5:14).
If you would like to acquire your own copy, it is available at many sources via a Google search including this Amazon link or the publisher Lexham Press. You may also access it on Audible or many other audiobook web sites.
Heiser often says that if you ask a modern day believer why the world is so bad, most Christians or Jews would say the fall. However, if you asked the same question to a first second temple Jew or a first century Christian, they would say the fall, followed by the sin of the watchers, and then the tower of babel event – referencing three supernatural rebellions.
As we have studied in previous semesters, we have mentioned how Jesus’ death and resurrection reversed all three of these rebellions. Reversing Hermon takes a deep dive into the second rebellion (Gen 6:1-4) – the sin of the watchers and what Jesus did on the cross to reverse it.
Reversing Hermon is a groundbreaking work. It unveils what most in the modern Church have never heard regarding how the story of the sin of the Watchers in 1 Enoch 6-16 helped frame the mission of Jesus, the messiah. Jews of the first century expected the messiah to reverse the impact of the Watchers’ transgression. For Jews of Jesus’ day, the Watchers were part of the explanation for why the world was so profoundly depraved. The messiah would not just revoke the claim of Satan on human souls and estrangement from God, solving the predicament of the Fall. He would also bring the nations back into relationship with the true God by defeating the principalities and powers that governed them. Jews also believed that the messiah would rescue humanity from self-destruction, the catalyst for which was the sin of the Watchers and the influence of what they had taught humankind. The role of Enoch’s retelling of Genesis 6:1-4 in how New Testament writers wrote of Jesus and the cross has been largely lost to a modern audience. Reversing Hermon rectifies that situation.
