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.

2nd Cornthians – Knowing God – 2014-Northern Virginia

What does The Resurrection mean to you?

I want you to ponder with me a question tonight. What does the resurrection mean to you? Do you know that they recently did a poll throughout the United States? 70% of the people they polled said that they believe that Jesus actually rose from the dead. I found that astounding. Now, probably not all of them are believers, and they probably have not all taken advantage of what that resurrection means. But it's because they don't understand what it means. What does the resurrection mean to us? We're going to be in Ephesians 2:1-10, which is one of the most amazing passages of Scripture for many reasons that we're about to see. We're going to break it down in three lines. First, what we were without Christ, what we were without Christ, that's verses one through three. Then we're going to look at what God has done through Christ, and that's going to be verses four through seven. And then we're going to look at in verses 8 to 10, what are we now in Christ and why? And that last question is important. What are we now in Christ and why?
