Dr. Mayfield opened his video with a contrast between the kingdom in which we live, and the kingdom of heaven; ours is presently shaking, Christ’s kingdom will never be shaken.
He proceeded to explain how it is that Christ prepares us for fellowship in eternity; and the role of His Spirit and the word in the transformation we will necessarily undergo. In the process, he talked about some of the changes we will experience.
In other words, biblical Christianity, and the means by which a believer experiences that kind of Christianity, are held up before us.

For other sermons by Dr. Mayfield in this blog, see: Categories: John Owen; Jonathan Edwards; Thomas Brooks; and Calvin’s Institutes. In all instances, very brief videos were used to discuss difficult topics which were made user friendly, so to speak — easy to understand, by Dr. Mayfield.
