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 #23

Daniel Chapter 10 emphasizes spiritual understanding (Dan 10:1, Dan 10:11, Dan 10:12, Dan 10:14, Dan 10:20); Power of effective prayer (Dan 10:1-12); Importance of spiritual understanding (Dan 10:11-14); Angelic conflict on the course of nations (Dan 10:13-14, Dan 10:20-21); Occupation with Christ (Dan 10:15-19); Importance of relation of nations to Divine Integrity (Dan 10:19-20). Prayer, to be effective, must be made operational (Jam 5:16, 1Jo 5:14-15). 536 BC the decree was given by Cyrus to return to Jerusalem (Ezr 1:1-4); Only 50,000 return (Ezr 2:64-65). Dan has a vision which "was true" (Dan 10:1). Cults present false Christs and deities (2Co 11:3-4, 2Co 11:13-15). Daniel fasted for three weeks (Dan 10:2-3) to focus on prayer for Israel. Daniel's vision (Dan 10:4-6) of Jesus Christ is similar John's vision in Revelation (Rev 1:13-16).
