The 2012 Northern Virginia Conference was on The Mountaintops of Scripture, giving a dispensational overview of the Bible.
The goals of this study are three-fold: first, to help the Bible student “think through” the Bible story along the lines of God’s promises and their fulfillment in the Person and work of our Lord Jesus Christ. The second objective is for us to gain a sense of how to “rightly divide” the Word of God, according to its own inherent pattern. In so doing, we are able to see its unity and minimize supposed contradictions. Finally, this overall grasp of Scripture will enable us to “tell the story” to others, keeping the focus where it belongs—on Jesus Christ the Savior.

Ezekiel #11

Ezekiel #11

Ezekiel 12 - Grace greater than all our sins (Jam 4:6). Jerusalem is becoming "a cup of trembling" (Zec 12:2-3). Ezekiel acts out the captivity and siege that was to happen to Jerusalem (Eze 12:1-28). Six years after Ezekiel's prophecy Zedekiah broke out through the wall to flee - he covered his face (2Ki 25:1-7, Jer 52:1-11). Zedekiah had laughed at their prophecies. People use two techniques to set aside God's word: 1) the prophecies were written long ago; 2) the prophecies will be fulfilled a long time from now (Eze 12:27). We are determining our usefulness to the King in the Kingdom - the post that we'll fill. God is long suffering and had "prolonged His words" because of grace. The peace of God guards our hearts and minds (Phi 4:6-7).
