In this episode I look at how righteousness is defined by the dictionary, the Bible, God and people of the world.It's eye opening truth.
I preached this a couple of years ago, but just added to it and preached it again. There is tremendous good news for those of us who fail, falter, and faint. When we doubt God's love for us, we can find faith strengthening truth in what God says about Himself and about us.
A little yeast permeates the entire loaf of bread. So it is with merit, performance legalism and Religionist.
We look at the word and testimony of Christ, which John was instructed to communicate, the consistency with the rest of Scripture we should expect to find in The Revelation, and the seven blessings The Revelation promises.
This is a significantly updated version of an earlier teaching on the first few verses of Galatians 5. I spend some time here speaking about the enemy's schemes that hobble God's children and make us feel in effective. There is great freedom in Christ Jesus. You'll pardon (or perhaps appreciate) my use of the KJV here. That was audience specific.
Setting the stage for our study and giving an overview of the book of Revelation.
This is a significantly updated version of an earlier teaching on this passage. You'll pardon (or perhaps appreciate) my use of the KJV here. That was audience specific. This is such a rich passage and by the end we're carried into the glory of the Lord.
The beginning of a study of The Revelation
Grace and Spiritual FruitFinishing Galatians Chapter 5, learn that we are not under the law, but under grace and we discover some of the beautiful ramifications of that. How can we know the Spirit is in us and we are in the Spirit? How do we bear spiritual fruit?
We are not tasked with revealing deeper knowledge leading to great spiritual maturity. We need not master convoluted doctrines and back them up with unassailable logic. On the contrary, as ministers of the New Covenant, we do not need to have an agenda with people. Rather,we are called to present the Good News of Jesus Christ as we have opportunity and then to simply leave the outcome to the Lord.
Stymied growth is the natural outcome of religious rule-keeping because it takes the focus off the True Source who energizes us and turns it toward our own performance. This is not where life is found.Obeying the truth is not adherence to a list of rules, edicts, or laws. Obeying the truth is living by faith. It is entrusting our wellbeing to God. It is taking God at His word.
We do ourselves a disservice when we as moder-day believers read the word "law" and think only of the 613 ordinances handed down by Moses. Like some of you, I spent years living life on a spiritual rollercoaster of failure, groveling, and rededication. The result was that I remained spiritually immature and ineffective. Find out more in this episode.
Light is spoken about in the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.The Good news is that the Light is the great gift of God to the world. In this episode we will see the incredible thread of the promise of Light and it's fulfillment in the Lord Jesus Christ. It is cause for great celebration, and nothing is more worthy to be celebrated.
Galatians 4:21-31Over and over we hear the refrain “he who has ears, let him hear.” Willingness to hear or rebellious refusal. These are the choices we must all make. This part of Galatians shows the good news that it is not our obedience to the rules, rites, and rituals of religion, but willingness to listen to God and trust Him.
Galatians 4:8-20In this episode we learn about a beautiful enslavement, God knowing you knowing God, relational ministry, and misplaced zeal.
Continuing our study of Galatians brings us to chapter 4. This time we learn the true meaning of baptism and how it relates to being clothed with Christ and the white robes in The Revelation.
The Covenant StandsThe Law is Inferior to the PromiseAs we continue studying Galatians the status of the Law as compared to the promise of God comes into stark relief. In this episode, we learn the importance of the Law having been delivered by a mediator and we see how good the Good News really is.
Abraham, Covenants, Law, and FaithAll these topics are covered in a few verses in Galatians Chapter 3. The glorious truth that sets us free is uncovered as Paul uses the Hebrew Scriptures (the Old Testament) to make his points about Religion and Relationship.
Paul’s emotionally charged message to the Galatians saints is that it’s foolish to think that religious practices have any value in providing salvation, righteousness, or ongoing acceptance by God.In this episode we dive deep into the first few verses of Chapter 3.
The fourth in the Galatians study. This time we look at peer pressure, straightforward truth, and life in Christ Jesus.
