Basic Theology: The Trinity Part 2 - DTS031
God is a personal God with personal distinctions. The biblical writers have no problem describing Him and interacting with Him in this way. We are the ones who have problems with the idea. In Genesis 18 describes a meeting between Yaweh and Abraham. Three men appeared near the great trees of…

Basic Theology: The Trinity Part 1 - DTS031
How can there be three personalities and only one God? The doctrine of the trinity is a part of what it means to be orthodox Christian in your beliefs. The doctrine of the Trinity is the doctrine that gets people in the most trouble throughout church history. For hundreds of years, people have...

Basic Theology: The Holy Spirit and His Gifts Part 2 - DTS030
As discussed in Part 1, God is a unity, but not a simple unity. He is a complex being. The Holy Spirit is not a separate God, but a member of a unified trinity who has a unique personality and intellect while still being unified with God. In the Old Testament, the Holy Spirit lived with the…

Basic Theology: The Holy Spirit and His Gifts Part 1 - DTS029
God exists as a unity. There is only one God. As Ephesians 4:4-6 says, there is one Spirit and there is one faith in one Lord who is our one God. The Bible never teaches that there is more than one God. But God is not a simple unity like one rock or one grain of sand. He is a complex being, and…

Basic Theology: Redemption Part 2 - Election and Atonement - DTS028
Part 1 of this focus on Redemption looked at sections of scripture where God has revealed that he chooses those who come to Him. This choice is not arbitrary or capricious, but it is done in love and with wisdom purpose. Jesus teaches about the doctrine of election throughout the Gospels, as…

Basic Theology: Redemption Part 1 - Election - DTS027
The doctrine of redemption has two parts: the doctrine of election and the doctrine of the atonement. This first part will deal with what the Bible teaches about the doctrine of election. Love is the characteristic motive for God's actions. It was because God so loved the world that He sent his...
-
Basic Theology: God The Redeemer Part 2 - DTS026
The Bible is God's written word that affirms that He is creator and that He acts with a purpose. God made mankind in His image. What was His purpose in creating us? Redemption. His purpose was to make us holy and righteous. Even though man sinned, God accomplished His purpose through Jesus…

Basic Theology: God The Redeemer Part 1 - DTS025
Scripture is a revelation, to us from God, of God's truth and God's character. He told us how to live and how to make moral decisions. This doctrine of scripture underlies all other doctrines. If we believe scripture, we have a foundation on which to build a theology that is true to God Himself....
-
Basic Theology: God The Creator Part 2 - DTS024
Romans 1:20 tells us that ever since the creation of the world, God's invisible qualities -- his eternal power and divine nature -- have been clearly perceived in the things that were made. So what is God like? First, God is able to do all that He wills to do. Nothing is too hard for God, and He...
-
Basic Theology: God the Creator - DTS023
The Bible begins with God creating the heavens and the earth - the entire universe. God existed before the creation of the universe, but beyond that fact, the Bible does not address anything before God's act of creation. It does not offer any formal proof for God's existence. What scripture does...
-
Basic Theology: The Word of God Part 2 - DTS022
God does not mislead us. He is always truthful. We have no evidence from scripture that His means of communication is ever one of deceit or deception of His people. If the Bible is truly God's word, then it is reliable and infallible. The inspiration of scripture by the Holy Spirit is confirmed…
more -
Basic Theology: The Word of God Part 1 - DTS021
The Bible is our basis, standard, and norm for faith and practice. By practice we don't just mean for church life on Sunday, but for our entire life no matter where we are or what we are doing. Christianity gives us a basis for making moral and intellectual decisions in every area of our life.…

A Gift Never Forgotten - John 12:1-8 - DTS020
Before Jesus went into Jerusalem and was betrayed, a devoted woman honored him by washing his feet and anointing his head with expensive perfume. The pint of nard was worth an entire year's wages, and it was broken and used for Jesus. John 12:1-8 tells the story of Mary, sister of Lazarus, who…
more -
Baptists and the Latter Days - Jude 17-25 - DTS019
Jude doesn't teach us what God will be doing in the latter days before Christ's return, but Jude does teach us what we should be doing in these latter days before Christ's return: We should contend for the faith that was once delivered to all the saints. Jude warns of false teachers and those who...

A Good Beginning Is Not Good Enough - Genesis 11:10-32 - DTS018
A good beginning is good, but it's not good enough. We don't get credit for just starting. Our goal should be to finish well. That is the message taught in Hebrews 12:1-2 and 1 Corinthians 9:24-27. It is also a message taught in the genealogies of Genesis 11:10-32. Genesis 11:10 begins the…

The Authority of a Pastor - DTS017
Pastors are not a high priest among other priests, but they are given oversight and responsibility to lead the congregation. When instructing Titus in Titus 2:15, Paul says to encourage and rebuke with all authority, and do not let anyone despise or disregard you, referring to the role of the…
more -
The Ministry of a Pastor - DTS016
A pastor is a minister called by God, a sacred teacher, who teaches God's word. He doesn't create scripture, or write scripture, but he is responsible for teaching it and carrying it out. The word pastor comes from the word for Shepherd. However, the analogy of a shepherd leading around a herd of...
-
We Are The Priesthood - DTS015
Before the Old Testament law was given, the head of the family acted as priest, making the sacrifices and being the intercessor for the family. This highlights another importance of Melchizedek's role, because he was not the head of the family, but someone to whom the head of the family went. We...
-
The Priesthood of All Believers - DTS014
The doctrine of the priesthood of all believers, a phrase taken from 1 Peter 2 but a concept reflected in all the letters of the New Testament, is not an excuse to claim that your interpretation of scripture is just as good or as right as anyone else's interpretation. We do not have authority…
more -
The Practical Flows From The Profound - Ephesians 4-6 - DTS013
The book of Ephesians begins with a doctrine that is profound and deep and ends with practical information that is immediately relevant. Chapter 4 begins the transition from doctrinal teaching to practical teaching, but there is no distinct separation between the two. The Apostle Paul wrote a...
-
The Mystery of Christ Is Now Revealed - Ephesians 3 - DTS012
The more you come to understand about God, the more there will be to understand. The more you understand of God's love, the more you can experience and know God's love. There is always more to become, and more to know. This is part of the width, length, height, and depth of the love of Christ.…

The Far Away Are Brought Near - Ephesians 2 - DTS011
Without God, there is no hope. History has lead the world as a whole towards chaos and destruction. It is characteristic of pagan philosophers and other religions to offer no hope for a better future, giving nothing certain to look forward to. But now, in Christ Jesus, all of us who were far away...
-
Prayer is an Index of Your Values - Ephesians 1:15-23 - DTS010
What you pray about is what you consider to be important. It reveals your values and priorities. A focus on your own problems in prayer reveals that your problems are more important than anything else. A focus on other people reveals that you have begun to put others above yourself. How much you...
-
In Love He Predestined Us - Ephesians 1:3-14 - DTS009
This section of Ephesians begins the major doctrinal exposition of the letter. Paul talks about the nature of our salvation in Jesus Christ, explaining what God has done for us in the past, what He is doing in the present, and what He will do in the future. This is the second installment of a six...
-
Introduction to Ephesians - DTS008
It is hard to value one part of Scripture over another, but Ephesians is certainly a crucial book in the New Testament. It is a comprehensive book making broad statements on big issues. Similar ideas are discussed in the book of Colossians, but Ephesians deals with the issues more broadly…

Love for Jesus Expressed in Burial - John 19 - DTS007
The burial of Jesus was the first act of love shown to the Son of God after his betrayal. Joseph and Nicodemus took Him from the cross and displayed their love and respect for Jesus by wrapping His body with linen and spices. Jesus was not treated as a criminal after his death, but as a friend…

You Do Understand The Trinity - DTS006
Dr. L. Russ Bush III teaches on the doctrine of the Trinity. Most explanations of the Trinity begin with a statement of how the Trinity is a mystery that we cannot explain or is beyond our understanding. However, Christianity is uniquely Trinitarian, and to say that we do not understand the…
more -
Paul's Method and Message - DTS005
Dr. L. Russ Bush teaches from the book of Acts on the method and message that the Apostle Paul used as he preached to everyone who would listen. Paul focused on the positive message of the gospel without compromising the content and truth of scripture. He didn't insult his audience, but brought…
