This resource is still being cataloged in order to give you a full description, Scripture list, and other information about it here. In the meantime, you can still enjoy listening to the teaching or download it.

The teacher goes through several records in the Old Testament where people faced situations where they could have been afraid and dismayed, but since God was bigger than any situation that came up against them, they took courage in knowing God was with them. We are encouraged to always consider God first in all life’s situations, not to lose sight of God, and to see God’s point of view over the world’s point of view.

The teaching tells us what it is to be holy and without blame. We see in the Old Testament that the priest had to be holy and the sacrifices had to be holy because God is holy. In the New Testament, we see Jesus Christ is holy, and, by his perfect offering of himself, we as the Church of Christ became holy and without blame before God. We then walk in accordance to the holy walk.

In this teaching, we learn how giving thanks, praising God, and rejoicing are all related. The teacher discusses ways that God’s people in the Old Testament praised and thanked God including the use of free-will offerings. He also shares how the believer after the day of Pentecost has an new, perfect way to praise and thank God, speaking in tongues.

God is the first place we should go in every situation; God is an everyday God, not an aid of last resort. We look at the record of King Asa which demonstrates how great it is when we go to God first and how hard things are when we go anywhere else. In this teaching, we see that God is always looking to bless people and that God is easy to find. Let’s not limit God! Let’s get rid of fear! God cares about you.

This teaching explains the meanings of the words “foreknowledge”, “predestination”, and “called”. We see from the Scriptures things that God predetermined beforehand because of His foreknowledge and how people by the freedom of their will can choose to accept God’s invitation, His calling, that is in Christ Jesus to become God’s sons.
