  • Election In The Gospels And Acts Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Nov 16, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,295 views

    There is no question that Jesus taught on the foreknowledge and election of the Father. We trace this teaching now throughout the history books of the New Testament.

    Matthew Fittingly in the New Testament, our first encounter with God's sovereignty is in regards to Jesus Himself. 1:21 gives us the words of the angel that His name will be Jesus. A small point, you say. Yet, here God intervenes in the process of childbirth and imposes His own will on a mother. ...read more

  • Election In The Epistles And Revelation Series

    There is no question about the teachings of Paul the apostle in regard to election. Peter, John and the rest are all in agreement. He does what He wills!

    Romans Romans is the heartland of Sovereignty teaching. Here are the Bible's most troubling verses on the subject, at least for those who are still in the other camp. Many have heard these verses. Most have come up with an interpretation that allows them to move on un-touched. But I suggest that ...read more

  • Christ Or Antichrist: The Fact Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,925 views

    Who comes first, Christ or antichrist? This message lays the groundwork upon which we can build.

    1. INTRODUCTION Yes, there are apparent contradictions in the Bible. A number of them! (I said apparent, not actual!) Ever tried to reconcile Divine Sovereignty with human free will? Justice with mercy? A Divine yet human Saviour? Ever struggled with the place of grace vs works in salvation? And ...read more

  • Deliverance And Salvation Are The Same

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Nov 19, 2015
    based on 2 ratings
     | 11,269 views

    Much confusion abounds about deliverance because of our church culture. Let's go back to the Scriptures...

    Introductory thoughts and questions. This study comes your way because one of you requested it. Please keep those requests coming in, and if I feel it is a subject I can and/or should be tackling, I will. Deliverance is a good Bible word, so yes, we should study it. But as always, we must study it ...read more

  • Watching, Watching, For What? Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Nov 23, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,135 views

    We delve here into the concept of watching for Christ, watching for prophecy fulfillment, watching for our own taking away to heaven.

    4. THE "WATCH" PASSAGES Matthew 24 is key to our understanding of who comes when. Remember the questions of the disciples? "When will you come?" "When will the world end?" Jesus goes into a long description, not of signs of the end, but signs that are not the end, so they will not be confused. ...read more

  • What Must Happen Before Jesus Comes? Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Nov 24, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,519 views

    The imminence of Christ's return has been taken to a point where certain Scriptures are now just ignored. Better to see imminence as a personal thing, which it truly is!

    6. WHAT MUST COME BEFORE CHRIST? From this point on, I am assuming that Paul spoke the truth when he gave the fact of II Thessalonians 2. And that Peter also spoke the truth when he told his people to look for Jesus, though many things were coming first. Assuming there is no secret rapture, since ...read more

  • God's People And The Five Points Series

     | 6,491 views

    How God's people fuss over various doctrinal differences! To their own loss, for there is truth on both sides. Also a short history of the struggle, including a look at Pelagius, Calvin, and Arminius.

    A POINTED DISCUSSION ABOUT THE AMAZING GRACE OF GOD The 5 points of Arminianism and of Calvinism. Reviewed, questioned, affirmed Preface I must say at the outset that the following paper was meant to be as fair and balanced as possible, giving as much Scriptural weight to one side as the other, and ...read more

  • I Can't Be Good! A Look At Depravity Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Dec 7, 2015
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,989 views

    "In my flesh is no good thing," says Paul. Most of us have found this to be true from our experience. All will, eventually.

    Let's deal with the subject of human Depravity, and in this discussion, its opposite, namely free will. So how can free will be the opposite of depravity? Remember we said above that the corruption of the human race extends to all areas of a person’s life, and one of those areas is the will. ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,124 views

    Does God choose His people based on things they have or have not done? Or does He choose them based on His own purposes?

    God’s choices or men’s? Election “God sees the future. He sees who will make a decision for Him, and saves those people,” or, “Before there was a world, He chose His disciples, the ones He would call out of this evil world, and then visited those chosen ones with ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,894 views

    Was it for every single person that Jesus died, or only HIs elect? Tough question...

    For Whom Did Jesus Die? Jesus died for every single soul that ever lived or ever will live (unlimited atonement) or, Jesus died for His own, the ones God saw from the beginning, the elect (limited atonement). With the “L” of the Tulip, we come to a bump in the road for many. Trying to ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,728 views

    Can a man resist God's laws? Can he resist God's grace? Two different questions...

    Can a man resist God? Now that too, on the surface, seems like an easy question to answer. God’s Word has been published lo these many years. The Judaeo-Christian value system has been proclaimed all over. Why, the very creation cries out about who God is and how He ought to be feared! ...read more

     | 5,694 views

    Jesus gives us eternal life, and we shall never perish. Sounds plain. But what about those Hebrews verses...

    Can I lose my salvation? My, the conversations this has stirred up among us through the years. It’s obviously not as clear as one would like it to be.
