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.

Am I under a generational curse?

Have you ever wondered, “Am I under a generational curse? Did my grandfather, great grandfather, some ancestor did something I don't even know about it? And I'm under the curse of it. What am I going to do”? Forget it. It's baloney. Say, how do you know? “Knowing you are not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers (1st Peter 3:18).” “Redeemed,” by the way, means, “to buy a slave out of the slave market of sin.” We were redeemed not with corruptible things ..." From what? “... the aimless conduct received by tradition from our fathers.” Did you know that you're a mirror image of some ancestor that may have lived a thousand years ago? You're the spitting image of somebody and maybe a composite of several somebodies. But you know what? All of that aimless conduct, all of that genetic makeup, all of that sin nature trends that have come down to you, the power of it's been broken! You've been redeemed from it -- set free!“You were redeemed with the precious blood of Christ as of a lamb without blemish and without spot (1st Peter 3:19)."
