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.

Beauty for Ashes #2

God works through us via the Son, Spirit, and Word through faith. Three passages declare God as blessed, who brought us forth to a living hope, having given us all spiritual blessing (2Co 1:3, 1Pe 1:3, Eph 1:3). Disciples prayed the prayer Jesus commanded (Mat 9:35-38), then fulfilled it (Mat 10:5). The "Need for Comfort" notes are  (Rom 5:12). We want comfort, but we turn our back on it (Jer 2:13). If we lack comfort, we lack in "seeking" (Heb 11:6).

Have you ever stood in great need of comfort and encouragement? If so you know that in time of affliction there is no thought or word that has deeper meaning nor any possession of greater value than that of effective and genuine comfort. The objective of this study is to equip us to have the assurance that there is comfort available and to know how to be comforted as well as how to be a comfort to others in the fires of affliction.
