End Times Fiction With Gary Demar – Apologia Studios [Salvation And Eschatology, Part 6]

9 Oct 2022 Michael A

In the following 9-minute video, Dr. Gary Demar explains the Olivet Discourse of Matthew 24, in terms of the context and time of application. The following explanation of the Olivet Discourse is from Got Questions.org: The Olivet Discourse is the name given to the orderly and extended teaching given by Jesus Christ on the Mount of Olives. His subject is the end times. This discourse is recorded in Matthew 24:1 – 25:46. Parallel passages are found in Mark 13:1-37 and Luke 21:5-36. The record in Matthew is the most extensive, so reference here will be to Matthew’s Gospel, linked at the end of post.

The Rapture And Postmillennialism Explained | with Jeff Durbin [Salvation And Eschatology, Part 5]

8 Oct 2022 Michael A

In this post are 3 videos; the first is an excerpt of Pastor Durbin explaining how he came to hold the post-mill view. Therein, he discusses the Olivet Discourse. He stated that RC Sproul’s book, The Last Days According to Jesus, helped him develop his eschatological view – Sproul is also post-mill. The second video is a 7-minute conversion testimony by Pastor Durbin, formerly, he was a celebrated practitioner of martial arts and an ecstasy addict – the video provides much hope for addicts of all kinds, regarding how Jesus delivers. The third video is a longer version of how he came to Christ and about the ministry work in which he is involved.

R.C. Sproul – God’s Help For Depressed Believers [Salvation And Eschatology, Part 4]

6 Oct 2022 Michael A

In the R C Sproul sermon of this post, he carefully explains how God gives salvation to a believer. In the process he discusses faith, justification and imputation, all bed-rock doctrines upon which the Christian’s spiritual life is built. He also clearly shows where Protestantism and Roman Catholicism differ, and where the latter veers into unbiblical byways. He uses scripture to make his points. [Sermon highlight points and some passages of scripture are provided]

How Do The Reformed Faiths Of J. MacArthur And V. Baucham Differ? [ Salvation and Eschatology Part 3]

4 Oct 2022 Michael A

In the video of this post, Pastor Joel Webbon explains the difference between the Baptist 1689 confession subscribed to by Voddie Baucham and the Westminister Confession of Faith subscribed to by John MacArthur – regarding their eschatological views. He does that in the process of answering a question submitted by a viewer. The question contained several questions which had to be clarified by Webbon before he got to the main point. So the video is a bit longer than it might have been, but for listeners who are new to such topics, Webbon’s redundancy will likely be helpful.

WILL CATHOLICS GO TO HELL?

2 Oct 2022 Michael A

The 22-minute video of this post was divided into equal parts to upload. On the video, the vlogger specifically answers the question, will Catholics go to hell. He initially provided a casual answer, but after a few moments, began a specific biblical answer. In the process, he compared Protestant Reformed faith and Catholicism, according to what they hold to be God’s doctrine of SALVATION. The Roman Catholic Church holds an unbiblical view.

The Covenant Of Grace – Pastor Patrick Hines [Salvation and Eschatology, Part 2]

27 Sep 2022 Michael A

In the 25-minute mp4 of this post, Pastor Hines explains biblical covenant theology as it reveals God’s plan of redemption in the Old and New Testaments. You will find that it is wrong to say, “the Old Testament was law and the New, grace;” or, “we are living in the day of grace,” as though those in the Old Testament were not saved by grace also. Many Christians, who have not formed a habit of reading through their Bibles, err in that they think wrongly about the Old Testament saints, how they were saved by God.

Dispensationalism, History And Theology By Pastor Patrick Hines [Salvation And Eschatology Part 1]

26 Sep 2022 Michael A

This post contains a sermon by Pastor Patrick Hines on the history of dispensationalism. In the process of explaining that, he addresses the pre-millennial and a-millennial views of end times. That is the chief reason I am blogging his message. The next post in this mini series will be about covenant theology, which is about the history of redemption as viewed by way of Bible covenants. That theology undermines dispensationalist’s views about end times and about how God dispensed salvation to Israel and the church; as covenant theology believes that Israel was the church from the beginning, via Abraham.

Christians Will Be Tested During These Last Days by James Coates

22 Sep 2022 Michael A

Pastor James Coates preached on Joshua 1:7 in the 13-minute video excerpt of this post. The following are a few points from the sermon: Biblical courage is the resolve to do what God demands in the face of any and all opposition, regardless of the outcome or cost, and to do it in a Christ-like manner as fruit of the Spirit, otherwise, your courage is fleshly. To be strong and courageous is to be resolute in the discharge of duty. As: 1Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain. As: 16:13 Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. God called Joshua to have such convictions

Biblical Creation VS Evolution – By Pastor Patrick Hines

18 Sep 2022 Michael A

In this post, Pastor Patrick Hines discusses the theories of creation and evolution. Many young readers may never have heard what he discusses from the Bible; people who were in high school between the years of 1968 and 1987 may not have heard each stated in a equal manner, as theories. Afterwards, only evolution was taught in biology class. If you have never read through the Bible, and you call yourself Christian, then please listen to this video. I provided highlight points for the initial 16 minutes which covered introductory remarks

Why Is Repentance Necessary? – J C Ryle [3-minute excerpt]

10 Sep 2022 Michael A

The following 3-minute excerpt of an 80-minute Ryle Audio book about the necessity of repentance for heaven. I excerpted this brief section of Ryle’s message because his words offer a unique perspective regarding getting to heaven. I believe that his words will make it easier for you to accurately critique your own desires concerning heaven. Sermon highlight points are provided and a link to the entire audio book.
