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 16 - Elements of Pilgrim Life

Psalm 16 - Elements of Pilgrim Life

We are sojourners and pilgrims (1Pe 2:9-11) - aliens in this life. Psalm 16 has the following elements: a prayer for watch-care, the expression of total dependence, a declaration of devotion, thankful contentment, a firm assurance, and a blessed hope. Seven conditions of a pilgrim: (1) There's a sense of constant threat as opposed to refuge - casah (Psa 16:1, 2Co 4:4). We live in a battlefield (Eph 6:12). (2) There's necessity for spiritual adjustment (Psa 16:2-3). Apart from Jesus Christ, we are the same old sinners (Rom 7:18). Love exalts others above self (Psa 16:3, Jam 1:17, Phi 2:3). Only spiritual growth and fellowship can keep us grace oriented. (3) Pilgrim life is progressive sanctification (Psa 16:4-5, 2Pe 1:2). Idol worshipers are a contrast (Jer 2:11, Rom 1:23). We are sanctified progressively through spiritual growth and practical application (Joh 17:17, Rom 12:1-2, 1Th 4:3). (4) A thankful contentment is difficult; it's easy to complain (Psa 16:5-6, Psa 23:5). We cannot lose what God has provided in Grace (Rom 11:29). (5) Stability in times of trial (Psa 16:7-8). David makes a commitment praise the Lord no matter what his lot may be (Psa 16:7). (6) We can pass through this world with hope - Hebrew batach (Psa 16:9, Phi 4:4, Job 19:25-26). (7) Anticipation or expectation of entering heaven (Psa 16:10-11). " Holy One" is applied to the Messiah Jesus Christ (Act 2:24-32). "In Your presence is fullness of joy...(Psa 37:4).
