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 14

He is not ashamed to call us brethren (Heb 2:14). Paul uses Elijah as example to illustrate the role of the remnant during times of apostacy (Rom 11:1-6). "There is a remnant according to the election of grace" (Rom 11:5). Grace is God's invitation (Rom 5:8). Faith is the response to the call. When Grace and faith come together, that's "the election of grace". We should have the confidence that the remnant has. Has God forsaken Israel? No (Rom 11:1). Paul knew he was part of the remnant in a theocratic nation. Today there is a remnant (Rom 11:5). Out of the national people of God were a few who were of the spiritual people of God (Christians). Paul stood accountable to God (1Co 4:3-4, Joh 16:7-11).

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.
