Greetings
on this Monday morning...even though it's raining. It
is my hope and desire that
you will gain much help in this edition of my blog...but you do have to
study. Take your time...stretch out the lesson material over the week. If you put in the time, you will grow spiritually.
LEADERSHIP APOLOGETICS: Click this LINK for our 159th apologetics short video. I believe there is much to
learn from these nationally recognized Christian teachers and
philosophers. Today's lesson is "What Do Buddhists Believe?" Listen to this helpful answer.
TRAINING THE TEACHER: My purpose here is to provide long-term biblical training for those who are
in church work but may not feel adequately trained in the Bible and
Christianity teaching in general. I desire all of you to take this
training (whether you teach or not) because it will better equip you to
teach or live as a disciple of Christ. All of the material for this
training is coming to you by Biblical Training.org. I am linking you to
their site for each of the lessons. You will be exposed to some of the
finest Bible teachers in the country. You will receive Bible Institute
level training. Our session here is one of 40 lessons (one each week). This is Lecture 35 of 40, from the module: A Guide to Christian Theology with Dr. Gerry Breshears as teacher. Click this LINK for the lesson, "Death". Visit their website and see that there are
different levels for your involvement. By registering with them (free and necessary), you
can have access to outlines, transcripts, etc. If you choose to do more
than one lesson each week...go for it! Study at your
pace.
HOPE FOR PARENTS: "Stop Overindulging Your Children." Click on this LINK.
ADVANCED DISCIPLESHIP: Click this LINK for a multi-lesson [new series] Bible Teachers Guide, Abraham: Living the Life of Faith. This is lesson 14 of 15: "How to Respond to Death in a God-honoring Way." The
host for this series is Dr. Gregory Brown. I
believe that you will profit greatly from this study from Genesis.
HERE'S MY QUESTION: "What does Acts 1:8 Mean?" Click on this LINK to read the answer.
GRADUATE LEVEL THEOLOGY STUDIES: This is Session 8 of 10 under Humanity and Sin. Click on this LINK . This lesson is "Free Will: Is There Such a Thing?" These are video lessons (they also have an audio version available on
the same page). As of May 8, 2017, we started the Graduate Program over from the
beginning again. These lessons are at an advanced, graduate level of study. If
you
missed any lessons previously, get them the next time around. You must
put your thinking cap on for these studies. They are sometimes
difficult, yet profitable. See the box for your choice of media...audio,
video, download.
COUNSELING HELP: The category of study is Prayer . Click this LINK for the article:"Father Forgive Them". Be prepared to offer solid advice...share this link with anyone who needs to read this.
DAILY JOURNEY: This material is from John Ankerberg...his thoughts about various Bible passages. January 22...Daily Journey Entry. LINK.
LEADERSHIP QUOTE: "The old covenant is revealed in the New, and the New Covenant is veiled in the Old." Augustine.
My desire for you this week is that you understand see the covenant connections.
In His Majesty's service, Dr. Darrell Foltz.
