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.

Living Sacrifice 29

Rom 12:1-2 is a summary of the book of Romans. Spiritual non-conformity "do not be conformed" This world demands conformity; but we can't (Phi 3:20, 1Jn 2:15). Sermon on the mount is to His disciples (Mat 5:1-48). The spiritual non-conformist is a disciple; he lives in a state of blessing. "blessed" means one who is in the environment of God. Much if Christianity today has lost it's focus on God(1Jn 2:28). Disciples are spiritually poor (Mat 5:3) -- destitute having total dependence on God. "mourn" is true repentance (Mat 5:4) -- part of your character (Jam 4:8-9). "Meek" = gentle (Mat 5:5). "hungers and thirst for Righteousness" (Mat 5:6) -- desperate for right relationship.

Scripture References: Matthew 5:3, John 2:28, Matthew 5:1-48, Matthew 5:6, John 2:15, Matthew 5:5, Philippians 3:20, James 4:8-9, Romans 12:1-2, Matthew 5:4

From Series: "Living Sacrifice (1995)"

Romans 12 and specifically Rom 12:1-2 is a pivot point between the doctrinal section and application of the book. This series methodically uses this passage to outline aspects or doctrines of the christian life -- God's provision and our prospect. Our lives can be acceptable to God if we progress on the path He intends. Living Sacrifice presents 12 doctrines: (1) redeeming time; (2) standing (positional truth); (3) self-presentation - availability; (4) approval; (5) service; (6) provision; (7) spiritual warfare; (8) conformity; (9) spiritual advance; (10) renewal; (11) divine guidance; (12) abundant life.
