Episode 12: The Divide Of The Cross
In this episode, we’ll be diving deeper into the concept of two kingdoms or world systems as they relate to the Christian experience. After the Fall in the Garden of Eden, the world system God had created for good became corrupted, and Satan became the “prince of this world.” (John 12:31). Thus…

Episode 11 - The Path Of Progress: Abiding
Now that we have explored the necessity of both “knowing” and “reckoning” ourselves to be dead to sin and alive to God, we can move on to the topic of “abiding” as another milestone in our Christian journey. Jesus spoke of this in John 15:4-5: “Remain (abide) in me, and I will remain in you. For…

Episode 10 - The Path Of Progress: Reckoning
In our previous episode, we examined the importance of “knowing” that when Jesus was crucified, our old nature was also put to death. That is a historical fact which can never be undone. So now we must move on to the next step in the process of our sanctification, which Paul explains in Romans...

Episode 9 - The Path Of Progress: Knowing
In the small Pentecostal church I grew up in, one of the well-established traditions was “testimony time.” Usually after the congregational music was done, there would be a time set aside for anyone who felt led to stand up and “testify”—give the Lord praise for some specific good thing that had...

Episode 8 - It’s All About Grace
Over the past several episodes we’ve been laying the Biblical groundwork regarding the work of the Blood and of the Cross in establishing our justification before God and the grounds for our ongoing sanctification into Christian maturity. I know at times it may have felt like slow going up to…

Episode 7 - As In Adam, So In Christ
Today we’re continuing our Bible study series based on the book, The Normal Christian Life by Watchman Nee. In the previous episode we looked at how Adam’s sin in the Garden of Eden created a sinful nature which has been passed down to every human being since the Fall. Because Adam sinned, we all...

Episode 6 - The Cross And The Principle Of Sin
In previous episodes we’ve focused on the importance and efficacy of the Blood of Jesus for the forgiveness for the sins we have committed, in order to be in right standing before God. We’ve seen that the Blood has been declared to be wholly sufficient by God, and therefore it is wholly…

Episode 5 - The Blood And Satan's Accusations
In the last two articles we’ve looked at how the Blood of Jesus both satisfies God’s holy demands and is the answer to our guilty consciences. Now we will examine how the Blood is our defense from Satan’s accusations against us. Revelation 12:10 speaks clearly of Satan as the accuser of the…

Episode 4 - The Blood And My Guilty Conscience
In our previous article we took an in-depth look at the value of the Blood of Jesus as it relates to our standing before God. Now we must explore how the Blood deals with our own guilty consciences. As sincere believers, we can become so acutely aware of the weight of our sins that we can very...

Episode 3 - The Blood And My Standing Before God
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve sung a song about the Blood of Jesus, I’d be on a long extended vacation on a beach in Hawaii right about now. Songs like Are You Washed In The Blood, Nothing But The Blood, There Is Power In The Blood, The Blood Will Never Lose Its Power, Thank You Jesus For...

Episode 2 - Two Problems, One Gospel
As I mentioned in the previous article, the goal of this study series is to offer hope to those who find themselves in a never-ending cycle of sinning, repentance, forgiveness, sinning again, repenting again, over and over with no end in sight. The good news, the literal Good News of the Gospel…

Episode 1 - The Burning Question
I’ve been a Christian for over 50 years. Half a century. And for the vast majority of that time I have struggled with my faith. I’m convinced that, if we were to be totally honest, many Christians would say the same thing. I believe that at the root of this struggle is one burning question: If I…
