Romans 1:16,17 NKJV - "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes...For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”"
A program exploring the Bible teaching of salvation and the relevance of faith and works.
Continuing the important discussion of the worthlessness of dead formalism in our Christian experience.
If Christians lose sight of Biblical history they may also loose sight of God’s saving Grace and Power. If this happens their worship and religious practices may become dry formalities based on a lifeless traditions. When we look to our worship style to create feelings of love and relationship with God it is because our hearts are not in daily connection with God. We are no longer worshipping God in Spirit and Truth. Todays program identifies the worthlessness of dead formalism and the living worship that God has called us to.
What happens to a person when they give their life to the Lord? What happens to our fallen human nature? The Bible tells us that we may be become partakers of the divine nature (2Pet 1:4) but what happens to the flesh? Many have expected changes in their flesh (fallen human nature) and when sin appeared in their flesh they became disappointed and were ready to believe that they were never converted. Today’s program deals with this important topic. We pray that you will be encouraged by it!
Grace is often discussed in Christianity as the means by which we are saved. The Bible tells us in 2 Corinthians 6:1 that we can receive the Grace of God in vain. Today’s program builds on last week’s theme and explores the great measure, the extent and power of God’s Grace given to each and everyone of us. Is it possible that we have undervalued and even limited the power of Grace in our lives?
The Bible tells us that God’s Word is living and Powerful. We see the Power of God’s word in action in Creation, when God spoke and it was done, He commanded and it stood fast. Is it possible that there is another power that can resist the Power of God’s Word? Today’s program explores this possibility from the Bible.
It is important to be purposeful in our relationship with God and to run the race of Faith with endurance. There are sins that can easily ensnare us if we take our eyes off Jesus. Today we discuss false teachers and teachings which satan will use to divert our attention from Christ.
In Hebrews 11 we read about the great victories that God's people experienced by Faith in times past. As we immerse ourselves in the Scriptures and become acquainted with their stories we are surrounded by their witness as a great cloud. Like them we are encouraged to look to Jesus the Author and Finisher of our Faith to obtain the Victory!
Every Christian agrees that the Kingdom and Reign of God is more powerful than the kingdom and reign of sin and satan. Because Grace is greater than sin there is an abundance of power to walk in the way of the Lord and prove that His yoke is easy and His burden is light!
In the Word of God we see a much greater power than that of the World. This power is greater than sin and greater than sins condemnation. If God’s grace was not more powerful and more abundant than sin, then no one could be saved! So why is it that so many continue to be enslaved by sin and worldliness? The answer is that many don’t know about God’s abundant grace. Some have heard something about grace but just can’t see it clearly, while others simply find it too good to be true! Today we contrast God’s grace with sin. It's a showdown between two great powers which leaves only one winner standing!
Everyone on this planet has benefited from the grace of God. Most don’t know about God’s grace and therefore only benefit from it unknowingly and partially. Today’s program wants to ensure that no one received the grace of God in vain (2Co 6:1).
The Bible tells us in Hebrews 3:19 that Israel could not enter God’s rest because of unbelief! It is evident that they could have entered God’s rest by faith. The rest of faith is an abiding rest that we are to enter into each day. The 7th Day Sabbath is a symbol of this rest which originated at the end of Creation. Today’s program explores how it’s impossible to keep the Sabbath Holy unless we enter God’s rest of faith.
When God created Adam and he opened his eyes, he saw his Creator for the first time. When Adam fell asleep and opened his eyes the second time, he saw his beautiful wife. Together they spent the first full day of their lives with God their Creator in Eden. After God had rested with them that day He blessed the Sabbath day. This day is a sign of God's power to create, save and make us holy. Find out more in today's program.
The Jews misunderstood circumcision and it's true meaning. What did circumcision have to do with a new heart? What does the Sabbath have to do with a new heart? Find out in today's program.
The Bible talks of Salvation coming to us by grace through faith. We are told that it's not of ourselves and not because of our works. The Bible goes on to tell us that God has created us for good works in Christ Jesus... todays program considers two types of works and if faith is compatible with both!
How do the weak become strong? Can the weak get a strong champion to fight for them against an adversary stronger than themselves? This program explores the certainty of victory in Jesus against any opponent!
The Bible speaks about Light and darkness what is this Light and what does the darkness represent?
The Righteousness of Christ is the goal of the Law. Man does not have any means to satisfy the Laws demands. Therefore, what the Law could not do because of the weakness of our flesh God did by sending Jesus so that the demands of the Law could be met in those who walk in the Spirit by faith.
We continue to unpack what the Bible means when it says that Christ is the end of the Law. This program looks at the meaning of the Greek word 'telos' which is sometimes translated as "end" and sometimes as "purpose".
Romans 10:4 says that Christ is the end of the Law. Did Christ really come to abolish the Law or does this text actually mean something different? This program starts by looking at what the text is not saying.
We continue our discussion regarding the Power of the Gospel and how Jesus breached the gap between Heaven and Earth. By faith in His work we are saved and faith produces evidence of the truths of Romans 10:9 in our lives.
Is Salvation really as simple as confessing, believing and baptism. When the Bible says in Romans 10:9 "that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Can we take this Word at face value and believe it implicity?
If evolution takes time... and Creation is instantaneous... can these two opposing ideologies be transferred into our Christian experience?
What are the ingredients for the philosophy of evolution and what what are the ingredients of Creation?
What do we do when all the evidence suggests that what is promised in the Bible cannot possibly happen and does not relate to us?
