Election

This is the second installment in a collection that I am tentatively calling “Christian Dictionary.”  I am hoping to give my thoughts on some theological words that, in my opinion, are often misunderstood because of various traditions that surround them.

This article is about the Greek word “eklektos” that is often translated as “chosen” or “elect.”  It would be difficult to overemphasize the importance of the definition of this word.  There are huge theological issues that rest on how this word is defined.  It affects how we see ourselves, and it affects our view of the character and nature of God.

The Full Gospel part 2 – Grace and Faith vs Law and Religion (audio)

Leave a comment

 

Title:  The Full Gospel part 2 – Grace and Faith vs Law and Religion

Subject Matter:  Christianity is about man relating to God through Christ.  It is a relationship, not a religion.  This relationship is part of the gospel message, and it is a result of what Christ did on the cross.  In this teaching we explore the contrast between relating to God through religion, as opposed to relating to Him as our Father in heaven.

Title:  Casting Out Demons 3- Different Kinds of Demons

Subject Matter:  In this class, we talked about some more areas that demons operate.  Last week the focus was on the mind and emotions.  This week was about how demons affect people in their bodies.  We also spent some time talking about religious spirits and doctrines of demons that Paul mentions in his first Epistle to Timothy (1 Tim 4:1-4).  Becoming aware of this kind of activity can help you identify lies and wrong beliefs about the nature our Father in heaven, and about our position in Him.

Healing part 6 – Overcoming Wrong Traditions (Audio)

Title:  Healing part 6 – Overcoming Wrong Traditions

Subject Matter:  This is the sixth part of a series on healing.  Putting your trust in church traditions, or traditional beliefs, will cause problems if those traditions and beliefs are contrary to scripture.

In this class we examined some traditions that can lead people into a mindset that is not in agreement with the life and ministry of Jesus.  This is a form of unbelief, and it will have a negative effect on your ability to minister to others in the area of healing.

One way to overcome or break free from these kinds of traditions is to find the truth in scripture, and intentionally change your mind so that it agrees with Jesus and the Bible, no matter how uncomfortable that process is.  The goal of this teaching is to move the listeners in that direction.  I hope you find it helpful.
