THE KINGDOM OF CHRIST - From Commencement to Completion (video series)- Chapter 1, Messianic Kingdom Prophecies Part 1

The focus of this teaching is to promote the biblical truth that Christ’s Kingdom is active and increasing right now on this earth, in this age. Erroneous eschatology has detracted from this truth in many circles of the Christian faith.

All of the major eschatological (study of how things end) passages are covered but the end of the world is not the important issue and true eschatology is merely a means to an end- Christ Himself as King of kings. Though we will look at the glorious end of earthly history from time to time, we will more so continually use the scriptures to interpret the scriptures and arrive at the present victorious Kingdom of Christ.

This introduction video to the series ‘The Kingdom of Christ- From Commencement to Completion’ runs for about 27 minutes and gives an overview of the series. The focus of this teaching is to promote the biblical truth that Christ’s Kingdom is active and increasing right now on this earth, in this age.

Clarification about ‘Pastoring In the New Testament’ videos

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

 

As I was preparing to upload the introduction video to the next series called ‘The Kingdom of Christ…‘ on Viddler, I noticed that the series I did a while back called ‘Pastoring In The New Testament‘ had considerably less hits than all the other vid teachings. As I prayerfully pondered this I realised that it is more than likely due to a missunderstanding from the title. This is not an exclusive teaching for some elite leaders; on the contraire.

I know that the majority of people who frequent this site are already out of institutional churches and on their way in the Kingdom of Christ. Most of you are well past the extra-biblical “Senior Pastor” error that we inherited from the Dark Ages. So, I think that some people may have seen the title and cringed, or at least just passed it by thinking it to be some leadership heavy, half-hierarchical teaching.

Why I Am A Protestant Protestant

I do believe that you would be hard pressed trying to find a true follower of Jesus Christ in our time that is not thankful that the protestant reformation occurred. For without it we would all be deeper in the clutches of Dark Age religious tyranny. We would not have a Bible in our own language, we wouldn’t know that we have direct access to God and we would still be trying to buy our way into heaven, not to mention whipping ourself to try to please Him. Yet much of the church of their time stood vehemently against the reformers.
