Knowing God—A Study in 2nd Corinthians

Moving Beyond Knowledge into Experience—

Igniting the Tinder of Truth by the Fire of the Spirit

This conference was presented in Northern Virginia February 28–March 2, 2014.

 

“For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness,
who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge
of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” 2Co 4:6

 

Second Corinthians is much more than just a defense and vindication of Paul’s ministry. It expounds the foundation of his life and service in the experiential knowledge of God in all His varied manifestations to Paul. In other words, Paul was who he was, and did what he did, because he continued to grow in his knowledge of God. This knowledge was not merely intellectual or academic. Rather it was essentially experiential, as Paul came to know the living Christ in his daily life.

Power of Praise #2

2Ch 20:1-30 Jehoshaphat means "God is my judge". Expressions of Praise: (1) Repentance (2Ch 20:3); (2) Pray 2Ch 20:5-12 ; (3) Proclaim ahead of deliverance (2Ch 20:14-16); (4) Rest (2Ch 20:17-19, 2Ch 20:30); (5) Obedience (2Ch 20:20); (6) Thanksgiving (2Ch 20:21); (7) Singing (2Ch 20:22); (8) Giving (2Ch 20:24-30). The song of praise (Psa 33:1-5): it's proper for believers to give praise. "A new song" (Psa 33:3) expresses new insight into God's word and works (Psa 33:1-4). God loves righteousness and Justice, so the earth is full of His goodness (Psa 33:5). Testimony of God's works (Exo 15:1-21); we know how to praise Him after the fact, but don't before we see it. The Exodus generation never praised God ahead of time which would have been an evidence of faith; they never went into the land as a result.
