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!”

Phi 2:5-11 is a central passage in Philippians -- evidence of the Providence of God. Abraham's faith was tested when God asked him to sacrifice Isaac; he responded without hesitation. The mighty hand of God working in the lives of men. Providence of God works out His glory and our blessing in our circumstances: examples are the lives of Joseph, Ester, Daniel (Gen 50:20, Est 9:1, Dan 4;32). God cares about the details of circumstances (Mat 10:29, Luk 12:6, Mat 10:30, Rom 8:28-29, Eph 1:11-12).

Philippians 1:12 starts out "Now I want you to know brethren that my circumstances have turned out for the greater progress of the Gospel". It's a key verse in the letter Paul wrote to those faithful believers while he was in chains.
