LISTEN TO THE LATEST TEACHINGS

A brilliantly simple section of Scripture that tells us the Gospel saves and seals us with the Holy Spirit when we hear and believe. However, this same section of Scripture has been complicated by 2000 years of theology; we attempt to bring clarity and comfort from these words.

Everyone asks at some time, if God created everything who created God? These are fundamental questions that often get asked by children when they are young. Dr. Ross explains using the space time continuum to demonstrate that God, the triune Creator, must transcend the created universe.

Some people have “miracle” testimonies and it can make the rest of us feel like we don’t have a testimony. Paul corrects this by theologically telling us what happens when anyone believes in Jesus Christ.

We have a lens that interprets all that we hear and read. Scripture has a lens over it from 400 years of theological battles and 200 years of American culture. These two can distort what Scripture actually says. In this text we look at the Bible’s Greatest Hit and if we hear this song Scripture sounds amazing.

Ephesians is brilliant. It is the revelation or uncovering of the master plan of Jesus to unite heaven and earth, Jews and Gentiles, for a lasting mission of good works. The themes of Ephesians of adoption, heirs with Jesus, Spirit, resurrection power and so many more enlighten the believer’s faith and equip them for every good work.

Paul spends a third of this epistle not on prophecy but on people. The reason: there is nothing harder or more important than people. All of us need biblical guidance on dealing with the community that surrounds us. In this section Paul gives us our marching orders as saints.

After discussing two difficult subjects of hell and the Antichrist, Paul offers a practical guide to staying strong in the face of intense persecution.

Navy Seal, Chad Williams shared his journey to Christ through his time in the military. He parallels Naahman’s deliverance from leprosy to his journey to Christ.

Matthew 3-4 tells us the story of Jesus getting baptized then Jesus being led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil. The main point of these stories is to remind believers that we are at war. There is a real enemy; if there is a real enemy, it helps to be mindful of the typical weapons of the enemy as well as practical methods of fighting back against the evil in the world.

2 Thessalonians charges out of the gate by discussing two of the scariest subjects in Scripture: hell and the antichrist. Both of these frightening subjects carry a message of hope for the church experiencing a sampling of hell and antichrist-like figures.
