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.

Living Sacrifice 05

2Ti 4:3 current apostacy is similar to Paul's discussion in Romans chapters 9 - 11. Passover in Exo 12:11 changes into the Lord's supper which will change to the marraige supper of the Lamb (Rev 14 & 19). "Loins girded" prepared for action -- ready for service (Heb 12:1, 1Pe 1:13, Eph 6:14). "Sandals on your feet" - restored to service (Luk 15:22, Rom 11:29, Eph 6:15, Psa 23:4). Reasons for urgency: (1) Time is short (Rev 22:7, Rev 22:12); Life is a vapor (Jam 4:14); We live in a unique generation (1Co 7:29); We have a garantee of the Lord's return (Luk 21:32). (2) Spiritual failure is a real possibility (1Co 9:27, Heb 10:36, Rev 3:11, 1Pe 1:2, Mat 24:13). (3) Loss of reward (1Co 3:15, 1Co 5:5, 2Co 2:6-8, Rev 3:11 "hold fast"). (4) Losing reward we'll be ashamed (Luk 9:26, 2Ti 2:15, 1Jo 2:28, Pro 3:5-6). (5) Redeemed time is all we can take with you -- time we live in fellowship and witness (Psa 90:12, Psa 39:4, Eph 5:16-17, Col 4:5).

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.
