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.”

Ephesians #44

Ephesians #44

Authority is delegated by God; rebelling against legitimate authority, is rebelling against God (Rom 13:1-8). Our self-determination comes from God. The Spirit's control is paramount for other relationships to work as designed (Eph 5:22-33). God chose the marriage roles for deliverance. Husbands are to love their wives as Christ loves the church and his own body. Love is first a decision, then an act, then a feeling. Christ was willing to sacrifice His rights, Himself, His desires (Eph 5:25, 2Co 8:9). Love is sacrificial and beneficial (Eph 5:26-27). "Cleanse" removes barriers allowing open, free and full relationship. A right relationship "gives" himself the gift he has chosen. Spots, wrinkles, blemishes are obstacles to holiness -- "wholeness" -- not missing any benefit of the relationship. Relationship needs nourishment and care (Eph 5:29) investment (meaningful conversation); care implies attentiveness, guidance, instruction. Cherish means to "heat and keep warm" (Eph 5:29) -- wash, adorn, beautify, protect.
