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.

Ezekiel #11

Ezekiel #11

Ezekiel 12 - Grace greater than all our sins (Jam 4:6). Jerusalem is becoming "a cup of trembling" (Zec 12:2-3). Ezekiel acts out the captivity and siege that was to happen to Jerusalem (Eze 12:1-28). Six years after Ezekiel's prophecy Zedekiah broke out through the wall to flee - he covered his face (2Ki 25:1-7, Jer 52:1-11). Zedekiah had laughed at their prophecies. People use two techniques to set aside God's word: 1) the prophecies were written long ago; 2) the prophecies will be fulfilled a long time from now (Eze 12:27). We are determining our usefulness to the King in the Kingdom - the post that we'll fill. God is long suffering and had "prolonged His words" because of grace. The peace of God guards our hearts and minds (Phi 4:6-7).
