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!”

Living Sacrifice 11

Shall we abide under the old sin nature? (Rom 6:1-14). It's imposible to live in sin -- we are dead to it -- now that we've been separated from it (Rom 6:2-3). We are identified in Christ's death, burial, and resurrection (Rom 6:4-5). We've been "engrafted" ("planted together in the likeness of His death") with Jesus Christ (Rom 6:5). (1) "Knowing" our sin nature has been rendered powerless (Heb 2:14); he who is dead is free; the inability to operate (Rom 6:6-10, Rom 4:3); (2) "Reckon" -- consider it a fact and act as if dead to sin and alive to God (Rom 6:11, 1Th 4:3); (3) Present "Present yourself to God as those alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord (Rom 6:12-13, Gal 2:20);

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.
