Picture yourself at Jesus’ feet with the forgiveness of God making all things new in your life. Mary has much to teach us about adoration, devotion, and living our life at the feet of our Lord and Savior—Jesus Christ. She came to Jesus with a humble heart and made wise decisions that were based on her spiritual priorities. The result was praise from the Lord.Nancy Cunningham - September 7, 2019
Safeguarding Your Soul -- AZ 2019 Ladies Class
Nan spoke to the ladies at the AZ 2019 conference "Safeguarding Your Soul."
From Series: "Shedding Ancient Light on the Outer Darkness Controversy"
Summary of the 2019 Arizona Conference 1. The theme running all through Matthew is the presentation of the King, His rejection by Israel, and the justice of the coming judgment. 2. All of the parables/teachings we have studied are consistent in the promise of reward to those who believe and warning of eternal judgment to those who reject their King. In light of this, how significant is the act of Pilate in posting over Jesus’ head the crime for which He was crucified, “This is Jesus the King of the Jews” (Matt. 27:37; Mark 15:26; Luke 23:38; John 19:19)? 3. The term “outer darkness” was well understood by the Jews of Jesus’ time to refer to Gehenna/Hell. 4. Though the Jews assumed a right to enter the kingdom based on their lineage, Jesus makes it abundantly clear that each one “must be born again” by faith in Him. 5. Nowhere in these passages is the focus on the Church, nor are they describing events at the Bema Seat of Christ. 6. Sound biblical interpretation demands that passages be studied in the light of their literal, historical, grammatical, and cultural setting.
