Building a Firm Foundation

A well-rounded understanding of God’s character is the beginning of developing sound faith LAMENTATIONS 3:21-23 21 This I recall to my mind, Therefore I have hope. 22 The LORD’S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. 23 They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness. We have been examining the nature of faith. But on what must we build a strong faith in the Lord? Let’s look at seven aspects of the foundation: 1. God is.

THE ATTITUDE OF A BELIEVER

1 Corinthians 15:9-11 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not found vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Whether then it be I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed. The apostle Paul had a certain mindset that Christians are wise to emulate …

Genesis Msg 8 The Lord Rests

With creation completed the Hebrew text emphasizes finishing, blessing, and sanctifying (setting apart, making holy). That is, God completed and blessed His creation. With creation and making from His creation over all future development on earth would be pro-creation since creation had ceased. The text says that God rested. In Hebrew this is Shabbat and it is used as a verb as in ceasing activity. Later in Exodus it will be used as a noun when the Law was given at Sinai to include the Sabbath. Vaiyeeshbot This word means to cease, desist or rest. It also means to put …

Israelology

AUDIOS One’s view of Israel is key in determining one’s theology. This groundbreaking study investigates four approaches to the theology of Israel Past, Present and Future, and scrutinizes beliefs that tend to confuse the identities of both Israel and the Church. The Biblical Evangelist called Israelology a “tremendous, masterful book… Millennialism, postmillennialism and other forms of Covenant Theology go up in smoke under the withering blaze of biblical light Fruchtenbaum places on them. It is the first to create an entire systematic theology of all that the Scriptures say in regard to the people of Israel. As such, Israelology fills …

Genesis Msg 7 God Turns from Creating and Begins Making

In this video Dr Woodhead discusses God Moving from creating to making. God begins to “make” from His creation. He makes man and the animals from the ground. Genesis 2: 19 affirms what has been stated here in verse twenty-four, the “earth brought forth.” He makes three categories of beings here all after their kind. They are cattle, creeping things, and the beasts of the earth. Each of these terms references a larger group. Cattle, for example is a general term for domesticated animals. Some of these would include sheep, horses, dogs etc. Creeping things would include all reptiles and …

“And he requested for himself that he might die.” 1 Kings 19:4

It was a remarkable thing that the man who was never to die, for whom God had ordained an infinitely better lot, the man who should be carried to heaven in a chariot of fire, and be translated, that he should not see death–should thus pray, “Let me die, I am no better than my fathers.” We have here a memorable proof that God does not always answer prayer in kind, though he always does in effect. He gave Elias something better than that which he asked for, and thus really heard and answered him. Strange was it that the …
