Gene presented The Gospel According to Moses at the first annual Shenandoah Valley Bible Conference held April 21-23, 2017 in Winchester, Virginia.
This series is intended to demonstrate that the Gospel message, focusing on the Person and work of Jesus Christ, is the central message of the entire Bible. The coming of the Messiah and His saving work of redemption is presented throughout the Old Testament through direct prophetic statements, as well as using types and shadows. New Testament authors repeatedly refer to Old Testament expectations of the coming of the Savior—the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Word Working In You #1

1st Thessalonians - The Word Working in You - Uniontown PA 2007

Key verses are 1Th 1:3 -- faith, love and hope; 1Th 5:8 is a book end. What could God accomplish is you were completely surrendered to Him (1Th 2:13). Sanctification encompasses the will of God (1Th 4:3) and is also a key verse. The story of Ruth illustrates concepts in 1Thessalonians -- faith put into service through love and resulted in hope. Each chapter ends with a reference to the Lord's return. The Word implanted is able - empowered - to save our souls day by day (Jam 1:22). "Knowing your election" (1Th 1:4) Paul refers to the "act or method of choosing -- the means". Many are called - few are chosen (Mat 20:16, Mat 11:28). Isa 42:1 - Jesus is The Elect -- the choice of the Father. As Jesus is Elect, we are and were elected in Him in eternity past. The Thessalonians received the word in much affliction (1Th 1:6), but still exhibited God's transforming power (1Th 1:5). George Tankerville was burned at the stake, but had peace beyond comprehension, as he preached the gospel until flames engulfed him. He learned (having tried to practice with fire the night before) God only gives Grace exactly when we need it.

From Series: "1st Thessalonians - The Word Working in You - Uniontown PA 2007"

The Word Working in You' is a study in 1st Thessalonians recorded at Uniontown PA on 19-20 October 2007. The primary focus of the Paul's epistles to the Thessalonians written A.D. 50-51 is Christian living in light of eternity which results in balance. The 'bookends' of 1Th 1:3 and 1Th 5:8 reveal the book's theme: the well-balanced Christian life. The book also teaches that God's Word works through faith. Interestingly this epistle is closely related in content to the Old Testament book of Ruth which provides a perfect biblical illustration of the practical truths of this book.
