In this message, we examine further Ephesians 1:3, looking more closely at the phrase “in heavenly places.” What does this phrase mean? Is this a good translation of the Greek? What was God conveying to us through the use of these words?
In this message, we study the short book of Philemon. Paul writes from Rome to a wealthy man in Colosse named Philemon. He writes him about a runaway slave of his named Onesimus, who has now come to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ through meeting Paul. We study the story of the book, and the lessons God has for us about grace and how God treats us that are behind it.
In this message, we conclude our study of Zechariah with a description of the day of the LORD, when the enemies come against Jerusalem, but the LORD arises to help them. The land is changed at His coming. A description of the plague with which He strikes those who fought against Jerusalem. The nations are brought back into line with the LORD’s rule. The blessed conditions that follow in the parousia.
In this message, we examine Zechariah 13. This passage continues discussing the day of the LORD wherein the anti-Christ and his forces have been defeated. Israel is cleansed of their sin, and those who were false prophets and false christs in the tribulation admit to their crimes. This leads Zechariah back to discussing the true Christ and what He would do at His first coming, and then to discussing the beginning of the Kingdom of God yet to come.
In this message, we examine Zechariah 12, in which the crisis between Jerusalem and their enemies comes to a head, and the LORD acts to save them. He strikes the horses of those who besiege Jerusalem with blindness, and their riders with madness. He empowers His people with might for battle that their enemies cannot resist. The LORD purposes to destroy their enemies. Then, His people all mourn for the sad events that He has brought them safely through. We examine these events, their significance, and where they fit in prophecy.
In this message, we continue our consideration of the book of Zechariah. The Lord promises to rescue and redeem His people. Zechariah takes a job as shepherd over a flock already sold to be slaughtered, and strange events unfold. The LORD uses these events to foretell things that are going to happen in the tribulation. We consider these strange prophecies.
In this message, we study the first three verses of Ephesians. This is the book of being in Christ, and it starts off with a giant sentence telling us all the ways God blesses us in Christ. We discuss what this means.
In this message, we discuss Ephesians 3:10-15, and God’s intent in all that He is doing today. The three dispensations God is working through today. His intention towards the heavenly principalities and powers in all that He is doing. What is the “whole family” spoken of in Ephesians 3:15?
PSA044 Boldness and Access with Confidence mp3
In this message, we consider the words of Paul in Ephesians 3:12, when he speaks of the boldness and access with confidence that we have in Christ. This is a staggering thing, when we realize just what it is that the Lord is really telling us here.
PSA043 Why 5: Why Not Now? mp3
In this message, we ask, if all that was necessary for God to fix all the problems in this world was Christ’s death on the cross, then why now after Christ’s death have two thousand years passed and God has still not saved us and brought His kingdom conditions to earth? We examine this question and consider Ephesians 3 and what it teaches us about the answer to it and God’s present purpose.
