Things are a-changin'
We are currently completing a
major and exciting upgrade to the DCF web site. This
means that there is a lot of new and updated content, a new
design and some useful changes in the background that mean
there will be new features such as live-streaming of our
Sunday morning and Tuesday evening Bible studies, the chance
to watch again online, or download video via podcast.
We have had
some of these changes ready since April 2011, and so we
wanted to get them online as soon as possible. Because
of this there are some pages - such as this one - that are
still being updated/created. We're sorry for any
inconvenience - however we are confident the changes are
worth the wait.
If you cannot access a part of
the web site that you really need, or have any ideas of what
you would like to see - simply send an email to
info@dcf-online.co.uk.
We check email daily, although it may take a couple of days
for a response.
For HIS glory!

Psalms
The introduction below is from
Chuck Smith's Old Testament Study Guide,
available from all good Christian bookshops (contact
DCF
for details):
A psalm is a
hymn of praise to God. The book of Psalms was originally the
hymnbook for Israel. The psalms are a classic example of
Hebrew poetry, which, unlike English poetry made of rhyme
and rhythm, consists of parallel or contrasting ideas. Many
of the psalms are known as acrostics because each verse
begins with a succeeding letter of the Hebrew alphabet (for
example, Psalm 119).
David, who
authored many of the Psalms, was considered a prophet, since
many of the psalms contained prophecies about the Messiah.
These predictions were direct references to Jesus Christ.
The
collection of 150 psalms is divided into five smaller books:
Psalms 1-41; 42-72; 73-89; 90-106; 107-150. We aren’t
sure of the purpose of these divisions; perhaps it had
something to do with the order of worship in the temple.
Many have seen a correlation between the content of these
five books of Psalms with the five books of the Pentateuch.
