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!”

Upper Room Discourse #2

Upper Room Discourse #2

Joh 13:1-3 what we know determines what we do. Joh 13:4-17 Jesus knew that disciples were out of fellowship (soul's were "dirty") cleansing was necessary, so washed their feet to teach them. He waited for Peter's permission (Joh 13:8). Attitude (pride or humble) --> Priority (spiritual or earthly) --> Decision (wise or foolish) --> Action (good or evil) --> Consequences (blessing or cursing). If you know and then do the things you are blessed (Joh 13:12-17). John reflects on fellowship and the upper room in 1Jo 1:5-10. We are self-deceived (1Jo 1:8). We need to be humble to realize we need His power (1Jo 1:9, Rom 7:24-25). When we humble ourselves His advocacy covers us (1Jo 2:1-2).
