Preparing for Christ‘s Return

In assessing the signs of the times, it looks as though we've never been closer to the return of Christ than we are right now.  How then would you evaluate your current preparation for His return?  Are you dressed and ready for service, keeping your lamp burning and your oil full?  Or have you let your oil get low and your lamp close to burning out?  The answer to that question has eternal implications.  Learn in this teaching how you can trim your lamps and prepare yourself for Christ's return.  

Let This Mind be in You, by Brent Denney

THE BEMA SEAT JUDGMENT: Building a Firm Foundation, pt. 8

The Bema Seat Judgment of Christ is a time and place where believers in Jesus will have their work for God's Kingdom in this life evaluated.  It's not a place of judging us for our sins, since those have already been dealt with on the cross.  Rather, it's a time when our work is examined and rewards will be given accordingly.  This is a crucial doctrine to master, because once you begin to have the revelation about how everything we do here in this life is either building up treasures in heaven or subtracting from our reward, then you'll be very purposeful in how you live.  And this is why the doctrine of eternal judgment is one of the foundational doctrines of the faith.  

THE DOCTRINE OF ETERNAL JUDGMENT: Building a Firm Foundation, pt. 7

The doctrine of eternal judgment is vital to understand for the Christ follower, because if you truly understand what the Bible says about this it will absolutely affect that way you live.  And for the Christian, eternal judgment is GOOD NEWS!  Find out in this teaching why we have reason to rejoice in eternal judgment, how to prepare for it, and why what you do TODAY is so important.  

The RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD: Building a Firm Foundation, pt. 6

The resurrection of the dead is a fundamental doctrine of the Christian faith.  In fact, it's so foundational that the scriptures tell us without the resurrection our faith is in vain.  And we likewise need to understand the three distinct resurrections that different people will be raised in.  This teaching will help us master a better understanding of this cornerstone doctrine. 

THE DOCTRINE OF THE LAYING ON OF HANDS: Building a Firm Foundation, pt. 5

DID YOU KNOW YOUR HANDS ARE INSTRUMENTS OF GOD'S SUPERNATURAL POWER?!  The doctrine of the laying on of hands is one of the fundamental principles in the Bible, but almost totally neglected when it comes to teaching about it from the pulpits of today's churches.  Yet this is how supernatural power, authority, blessing, deliverance and healing was and is transferred.  Learn in this teaching how God wants to use you to transfer His power into the lives of others.  And by the way, there were several healings in this service after this sermon was delivered.  God confirmed His Word with signs following!!! 

THE DOCTRINE OF BAPTISMS: Building a Firm Foundation, pt. 4

Most people know about water baptism, but did you know there are not one, but THREE different baptisms discussed in the Scriptures that are available to every believer?  And each baptism has a special place and purpose in the life of the believer.  Discover in this teaching what each of those baptisms are and how they benefit the Christ follower.  

Building a Firm Foundation, pt.3: Faith Toward God

Hebrews 6 says that "faith toward God" is a fundamental concept we must master if we are to go on to spiritual maturity.  But what exactly does that mean?  In this teaching, we break down what it really means to trust God for one's salvation.  This version of the gospel message is not taught in many churches these days, but it must be understood if we are to build a firm spiritual foundation that will stand the test of time.  

Building a Firm Foundation, pt. 2

One of the fundamental principles the book of Hebrews says we have to master to go on to maturity is "repentance from dead works."  But what does that mean?  Many people believe they have repented, but the fruit -- or lack thereof -- of their lives show they never really rended their hearts and changed, which is one fundamental element of true repentance.  This teaching will take a deep dive into the meaning of repentance and how it should be impacting the life of the Christ follower.  Listen in to make sure you have truly repented according to the Biblical meaning.
