The life of faith is a spiritual journey beginning at the moment of new birth (regeneration) through personal faith in Jesus Christ as Savior, and continuing onward and upward from spiritual infancy—through the stages of spiritual growth— into maturity and beyond. I refer to it as the journey “from the cross to the crown.”
  
The little book of Titus, one of Paul’s “pastoral epistles,” provides a short-course on the life of faith. As we explore the great and timeless truth contained in this epistle, we will refer again and again to the “life of faith” and the journey “from the cross to the crown,” and to the many promises and provisions supplied by God in His matchless grace for those who choose to live in the light of the cross.
This was the subject of the Spring 2011 Conference in Canberra, Australia.

Daniel #6

Daniel #6

Times of the Gentiles (Luk 21:24). Daniel chapter 4 outline: Greeting and the purpose (Dan 4:1-3); The tree vision (Dan 4:4-18); The dream interpreted Dan 4:19-27); Fulfillment (Dan 4:28-33); Salvation and restoration of Nebuchadnezzar (Dan 4:34-37). Daniel 4 is a worldwide proclamation. God is not willing that any should perish (2Pe 3:9). Jesus Christ relates Himself to the crushing stone of Daniel 2:35 in Mat 21:44. Justice of God regards all men alike (Rom 2:11). Love is expressed in the cross (Rom 5:8). God's Omniscience is never ignorant of any person. Omnipotence is able to provide for every member of the human race. Jesus is the same always (Heb 13:8). Unlimited atonement - Jesus died for all people (2Pe 2:1 1Jo 2:2, 2Co 5:1). Divine will is that all are saved (2Pe 3:9). Human volition involves God consciousness (Rom 1:20-22). Saving faith in Jesus Christ is next - this is non-meritorious (Rom 10:17, Rom 1:17, Jer 29:13, Joh 7:17, Act 17:27). Systems of perception: Empiricism (Rom 1:17-21, 1Co 2) gives us no excuse, but involves merit. Rationalism deals with reason (Act 17:1-34). Faith is non-meritorious. The merit is in the object of faith (2Co 5:21). Approaches to God consciousness: Religious approach; Moral approach urges right and wrong; Ontological - the human mind imagines a perfect; teleological - the universe must have a director and designer. Heathenism exists where the truth of God has been rejected (Isa 40:17-21, Rom 1:18-30, Rom 10:18, 2Th 1:8). Daniel was the head of the wise men (Dan 4:9, Dan 9:27) and set up a time table to the messiah. Ezekiel was a contemporary that regards Daniel highly (Eze 14:14, Eze 14:20, Eze 28:3). Angelic conflict and battles (Dan 4:10-18)
