These lessons were presented May 23–24, 2014 at the Rocky Mountain Bible Conference in Denver, Colorado. At this conference, Gene teaches on passages from the book of Hebrews including the following subjects:
►  Hope as an “anchor of the soul”
►  Eternal security
►  “Pressing on to maturity”
►  Baptism
►  Christ as the perfect sacrifice
►  Process of “falling away” (to include the sin unto death)
►  Priesthood, ambassadorship, and ministry of the individual believer
The key verse for the conference is Heb 6:18–20:
“That by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation,
we who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: which hope we have as an anchor of the soul,
both sure and steadfast, and which enters within the veil; where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, even Jesus,
having become a High Priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.”

Psalm 8 - The Glory of God in the Face of Christ

Psalm 8 - The Glory of God in the Face of Christ

All our searching is in vain if we don't seek fulfillment in Christ (2Co 3:6). The scope of God's glory includes the power of creation (Psa 8:1-2). God's glory transcends the universe (Isa 6:3). The glory of the frailty of incarnation (Psa 8:2). Jesus applies the Psalm to himself (Mat 22:16, Heb 10:5, Psa 22:9-10, Mat 11:25). The glory of the wisdom of God in crucifixion (Psa 8:1 - the Gittith - "wine press"). The condescension of God's glory -- contained in Jesus Christ (Psa 8:3-4). The universe is a faint reflection of the glory of God (Psa 19:1, Rom 1:20). If God's glory is only faintly reflected in the universe, where do we see it in its greatest brilliance? David uses first the word Enosh - "fallen man" then Adam referring to the incarnation (Psa 8:4). David says the Son of Man visits the race of Adam (Luk 1:78, Luk 1:68). The trail of God's glory (Psa 8:5-8) starts with the descent. "You (the Father) have made Him (the Son) lower (for a short time) than angels". Then the ascent: "..and have crowned him with glory and honor". This was prophesied (Psa 110:1) and discussed by Paul (Rom 10:6, Eph 4:9-10). Jesus Christ will own and control everything someday (Psa 8:6-9). The Lord applies this Psalm to Himself (Mat 21:16). Paul adds the redemptive discussion to this Psalm (Eph 1:19-23). Paul places the Psalm timing after the resurrection (1Co 15:22-28). The author of Hebrews also times fulfillment (Heb 2:5-9). John applies the Psalm to post resurrection (Rev 5:12).
