The subtitle of this lesson says it all: "Glory To God While We Relax and Enjoy." God's plan for man has always included down time. How to use our times of rest well while seeking the ultimate rest in Christ.
A study of the peace that is offered in Christ. How He has called us to peace and how the fruit of peace should spread in our lives.
Is "Command, Example and Necessary Inference" the way God directs us? Can this type of approach actually be found in the scriptures? If it is, how do we apply it to various religious practices?
A study of the statements of Jesus while He was on the cross and what that shows about His concerns and how that should help up us properly set priorities.
An examination of the question of "Are we under law today or not?" Is the gospel a type of a law? If so, and we believe that it is, what kind of law is it, and how do the law of Christ and faith work together?
A examination of the authority that Christ claimed, how the Apostles speak with His authority, and all of their instructions are recorded for us in the New Testament.
In this examination of Hebrews 8:6-13, we find out the reasons for the New Covenant, the Jeremiah's prophecy of it, and the four great things that are promised to come with it.
To understand why we take the Bible as our total authority in matters of faith and religion, we begin by examining what the Bible claims for itself. It is says that it is God-given (inspired) and sufficient and to answer the most important questions of life. And finally, it claims to be the standard of judgment.
Do we really appreciate what worship is all about and how important it is?
An examination of the many descriptions the apostle Paul's preaching giving in the book of Acts. In total, we find a rather complete picture of the purpose, methods and results of Paul's preaching.
God has stated a number of things that are His will for us and His desire for mankind. Of those things, we know from experience and from other scriptures that they often do not occur. How does God respond when He doesn’t get what He wants? And what lessons can we take from this?
Paul informs us the “Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed.” We examine how Christ is a fitting sacrificial lamb for us and how the Passover foreshadows His offering by which He delivered all the people.
We we come together for worship obviously it is to honor God. This is right and good. We examine this aspect of worship as well as how we meet our obligations to others in worship and also derive many benefits for ourselves.
We examine how difficulties in life can be used for the glory of God. As we all face trials of life and tests of faith, we can turn them into sources of great encouragement for others and faith building for ourselves.
Many have a number of complaints about churches. This church, that church, any church, every church. We examine what is perfect about the church and how, by God’s plan, sinful people are being perfected in it.
We examine how God has given us a great purpose in this life, and how merciful He is to us we fail it and the instruction He give to fulfill it.
We belong to God who made us and put us on earth as He desired. We examine things that God has made, that we cannot change. We may not like some of these things, but by His direction and grace we can serve Him in them all.
We examine James 3:13 through 4:6 to see two different kinds of life laid out: the life we should have of wisdom, understanding and gentleness vs. the life we often have, full of selfishness, jealousy and disorder. The life of God given peace, mercy and good fruits and the life of the flesh are contrasted as we learn to yearn for the life guided by grace.
In our second lesson about Hannah, Samuel’s mother, we examine how she kept the vow she made to God, was a devoted mothers, and how she worshipped God.
