We explore the powerful meaning … The Incarnation: The Greatest Thing That Ever Happened For You – Part 1 Read More »

How is that so many Christians either think they can “lose their salvation” or have doubts about the future? Often, it’s because they base their Christian life on their own performance (up and down), rather than on God Himself, His faithfulness and His performance for us. In this podcast, our study of Hebrews continues in … Hebrews Pt 14: All Based on God’s Faithfulness (Hebrews 6, pt 3) Read More »

Many Christians are afraid that they may lose their salvation. They believe that the warning verses in Hebrews 6:4-8 and 10:26-31 are aimed at Christians. Is Hebrews really about losing your salvation? Can a Christian’s sin be more powerful than Christ’s finished work, thus negating that work on his behalf?

In this edition, we talk about: What “keeping the rest” (cease from work) means as it applies to dead works versus life in the Spirit. The great salvation of the Bible vs. the myopic salvation of the modern church Jesus our compassionate High Priest and beginning the discussion on why Jesus is fully qualified to … Hebrews Pt 09: How We Keep the Sabbath (Hebrews Chapter 5, Part 1) Read More »

Because we are already in God's rest -- since He has already finished His work, God calls us to "keep the Sabbath" by ceasing from our works. That Sabbath is TODAY, always now. We always are in God's rest, ceasing from our work, because God has finished all in Christ. That's what Hebrews is all about.

This is a very powerful, life-changing lesson. Many Christians are somewhat familiar with the fact that Hebrews talks about "rest" a lot. But few understand the revolutionary truth that the "rest" spoken of is God's rest. And He is resting because He has completely finished His work.

In this podcast we take a different direction than our verse-by-verse study of Hebrews. Many people hold to the belief that the believer "entering God's rest" is something that happens sometime in the future. Some even believe it happens after we die and leave this life! But as you'll find out in this clarifying podcast, the believer ALREADY has entered God's rest -- at the very moment he was born again.
