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.”

Review of Sanctification. Sanctification is a one-word summary for the Will of God for our lives. 1Th 4:3- With liberty comes responsibility. We must be willing at times to separate from normally authorized things for the cause of Christ. God is the guardian of these boundaries. Numbers 6:1-12 Nazarite vow-separate themselves unto the Lord. These represent outward manifestations of inward sacrifices we must sometimes make to serve Christ. Judges 13:5, 13:25, 14:1-6, 14:7-9 Samson's example of the Nazarite vow. God works in the world as it is not as we wish it were. Heb 11:32-34
The Thessalonians were persecuted for their faith. Paul's first letter to them provides comfort, reminding them of the details of Christ's return for His Church ("The Blessed Hope") and providing practical spiritual lessons for living.
