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!”

God is a Mathmatician

1st Peter 2:2 concludes, "Grace to you and peace be multiplied." It should be challenging to you to realize that you can multiply grace and peace. You know, God is a mathematician. When we come to Christ, He subtracts our sins. He adds the righteousness of Christ. And then He multiplies grace and peace. He even divides. You know, you have splits in churches. One group goes this way, one goes another. Sometimes those divisions have to happen. He's a great mathematician! The greeting “Grace to you and peace be multiplied” not only reminds us that the utilization of God’s grace provisions (His written word, our spiritual bank account (Eph.1:3) combined with the indwelling work of the Spirit (1Th.5:23). The phrase “be multiplied” to grow, increase, and is in the passive voice (God does the work), and the optative mood, expressing the will of God for our lives.
