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.

Daniel #23

Daniel Chapter 10 emphasizes spiritual understanding (Dan 10:1, Dan 10:11, Dan 10:12, Dan 10:14, Dan 10:20); Power of effective prayer (Dan 10:1-12); Importance of spiritual understanding (Dan 10:11-14); Angelic conflict on the course of nations (Dan 10:13-14, Dan 10:20-21); Occupation with Christ (Dan 10:15-19); Importance of relation of nations to Divine Integrity (Dan 10:19-20). Prayer, to be effective, must be made operational (Jam 5:16, 1Jo 5:14-15). 536 BC the decree was given by Cyrus to return to Jerusalem (Ezr 1:1-4); Only 50,000 return (Ezr 2:64-65). Dan has a vision which "was true" (Dan 10:1). Cults present false Christs and deities (2Co 11:3-4, 2Co 11:13-15). Daniel fasted for three weeks (Dan 10:2-3) to focus on prayer for Israel. Daniel's vision (Dan 10:4-6) of Jesus Christ is similar John's vision in Revelation (Rev 1:13-16).
