The Word Became Flesh Bible Conference was held in Buchanan Dam, Texas November 28–30, 2014.

 

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God … And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” Joh 1:1, Joh 1:14

Gene says, “It is my earnest prayer that this study will bring each of us to “behold His glory,” and be enraptured by the “beauty of holiness” seen only in Him. He presents such a captivating image that even the smallest seed of faith will be blessed by the process of inner transformation into His likeness. The book of Hebrews captures the thing we lack so much in our hustle-and-bustle lives.”

“But we see Jesus [Heb 2:9] … Therefore, holy brethren … consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession,
Jesus Christ [Heb 3:1] … looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher [perfector, NASB] of our faith …” Heb 12:2
He continues, “May God grant that each of us be delivered from the distractions of our time, to look upon His face, to behold His glory, and to be changed into His image!”

Precious Promises Perilous Times #2

Precious Promises Perilous Times #2

2Pe 1:1-4 God's grace provisions give us everything to live the life God intends -- godliness -- reflecting Christ (1Ti 3:16). God channels his blessing to us through His promises (2Pe 1:4, e.g., Rom 8:28). "Partaker" - active participant of the outworking of His nature. Three verbs "obtained" (2Pe 1:1), "called" (2Pe 1:3), "having escaped" (2Pe 1:4) all happened together. "Glory and virtue" is His life and nature powerfully displayed (2Pe 1:3). (1) Jesus Christ is the source and center of our spiritual life. (2) We enter His grace by faith and in so doing we find peace (Rom 5:1-2). (3) To grow in experiential knowledge leads to a display of Divine power. (4) The objective of the spiritual life is to become like Jesus Christ.

From Series: "2nd Peter - Precious Promises Perilous Times - Northern VA - 2009"

These lessons were given at the Northern Virginia conference in the Spring of 2009. The theme of 2nd Peter is the great need for personal spiritual growth in a time when false teachers and teachings were infiltrating the early church (2Pe 1:5 with 2Pe 3:18). Key words/phrases relevant to spiritual growth are ?grace and peace? which can be ?multiplied? as we grow in the ?knowledge? of our Lord and exercise due ?diligence? in the practice of spiritual ?love.? As a method of instruction Peter emphasizes the necessity of reminder and repetition (2Pe 1:12-13 2Pe 1:15; 2Pe 3:1-2).
