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 13 - When God Hides Himself

Psalm 13 - When God Hides Himself

Psa 13:1-6 was written by David being pursued by Saul. "How long?" David asks four times. He feels God has forgotten him and has a sense of deliberate divine absence (Psa 13:1). He is over-thinking without solutions (Psa 13:2). David has a sense of shame that his enemies have been exalted. Parallel illustration is Job (Job 13:20-28); Job asks why God is silent. Ethan asks "How Long?" (Psa 89:46-52) and links persecution with Christ (Messiah) and God's reputation. Other examples - unbelievers taunt "where is your God?", but we are being tested for fruit-bearing (Psa 44:20-26, Rom 8:36, Psa 42:9-11). Isaiah explains that God is a God that "hides himself" (Isa 45:15-19). (1) When God hides Himself it's for a special purpose; (2) God hides Himself as a test of faith; "Will we trust when times are dark?"; (3) God tests our devotion; "Will we continue to seek Him?"; He hides to show what's there in the heart; (4) God hides Himself as a test of spiritual endurance; "Will we carry on or give up?"; (5) God hides Himself as a test of past training.
