Bringing Prophecy into Focus
What is prophecy?
What does it mean to prophesy?
What are the different types of prophetic messages in the Bible?
How can you be sure a message is from God and not the fabrication of an imaginative individual?
How is the New Testament gift of prophecy different from the God-inspired messages in the Old Testament?
Please join Dr. Sanjay Merchant for this free, in-depth seminar about the many ways God has brought His divine messages.
In the fullness of time
At the close of the Old Testament story, a small group of Israelites were reestablished in the Holy Land, the walls of Jerusalem and the Temple were rebuilt, and idolatry had been rooted out of the nation. When the New Testament opens, Rome is the ruling power, synagogues are everywhere, and there are groups called Sadducees and Pharisees badgering the Jews about every aspect of life.
What happened in the middle?
Galatians 4:4-7 describes how Jesus was sent by God "in the fullness of time", or at exactly the right time.
Please join Sanjay Merchant as he teaches us how each ruling empire prepared the way for the arrival of Jesus, and the spreading of the Good News across the world.
The Historicity of the Resurrection
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the foundation for our Christian faith. Therefore, the historicity of Jesus’ death and resurrection is crucial to what we believe.
Join Adjunct Teaching Pastor, Sanjay Merchant, as he discusses biblical evidences of these events.
Are We Living in the End Times?
COVID! Riots! Natural disasters! Militant Islam! Persecution!
It seems like the world is coming down around our ears! To many Christians, it appears these events are pointing to the return of Christ. Are we living in the End Times? How can we know?
Join Dr. Alan Hultberg, Associate Professor of New Testament at Talbot School of Theology, Biola University, as we explore what the Bible has to say about the events of the last days and where our own days might fit into them.
Part I: Are We in the Last Days?
Part II: 11 Things that will Occur in Relation to the Return of Christ
