The Comfort of Love
Love Greenkill Conference Center Armstrong, Joe 06/29/2018 06/29/2018
This teaching teaches that life can be beautiful as God’s people love one another. We can do kind and comforting acts just like our Lord. We can refresh people and triumph over evil with love; we choose to do this to exemplify His love. God is love and sheds that love in our hearts.
Pressing Toward the Mark
The Hope Greenkill Conference Center Carr, Diane 06/28/2018 06/28/2018
We are pressing toward the mark of the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. This teaching takes a look at the life of the Apostle Paul, a man who believed in the return of Jesus Christ, and what it took for him to press toward the mark. The Hope of Christ’s return takes you beyond the here and now. There is rest in the Hope. God will reveal things to you to help keep you moving in your race. Salvation is by grace, and once you are in the household, there are rewards and crowns to be won. The Bible mentions five crowns that can be won. Our footsteps upon this earth are temporal, but what we do for God and for His Word in our lifetime will be heard throughout all eternity. We have a living hope because we have a living God. God never forgets His people. This is our time in history for us to lay hold of the high calling of Jesus Christ, our Hope. Allow God to set the vision of our lives. We are sons of the Almighty God pressing toward the mark.
Our Hope: Christ’s Return
The Hope Greenkill Conference Center Chatten, Bob 06/28/2018 06/28/2018
This teaching is overflowing with truths about the great Hope of Christ’s return and what it means for us as the body of Christ. It starts off with fall of man in the Garden of Eden and our need for hope. It breaks down the events of Jesus Christ’s second coming and the comfort we have as a result. Then, it looks at all of today’s issues that will be COMPLETELY done away with as a result of the Hope, starting with the seven things in Romans 8 that can try to separate us from the love of Christ. There will be perfect unity with the Hope; division will be done away with. We are going to get perfect, eternal, supernatural, and unfathomably wonderful bodies. The rulers of the darkness of this world will be overcome. And finally, there is going to be the final destruction of the Devil and his greatest weapon, death. We’ve never known life without the Adversary. There will be no more pressure, hurt, or evil. It will be gone forever, never again to be seen. We will no longer have need for the whole armor of God because the fiery darts of the wicked will not exist. Paradise restored is the final culmination of the Hope. The central blessing is that God will be there with us face to face like in the original Paradise. Our God has always been a God of hope and He wants us to be people full of hope as a present reality. The hope of Christ’s return is the Christian believer’s immovable North Star that keeps us on course and influences everything we do. Every time we speak in tongues we prove that Jesus Christ got up from the dead and remember that he is coming back. To know and to love the Lord Jesus Christ is to joyfully anticipate his return. We have the Hope of Christ’s return…he is coming back!
The Synchronized Life
Believing Renewed Mind Greenkill Conference Center Chatten, Bob 06/28/2018 06/28/2018
In this teaching, we look at what the scriptures say about us. We believe what the Word says and continue to confess it to ourselves. As we act on those promises, we have the power that God has promised.
Renewed Mind: The Conflict
Renewed Mind Greenkill Conference Center Cinardo, Nick 06/28/2018 06/28/2018
The renewed mind allows us the opportunity to walk with the power of God in a dynamic way, to manifest the greatness of God’s love, and to be able to minister to people. This teaching gives a doctrinal approach to renewed mind believing (how it works), an example of what the renewed mind looks like, and a practical process to operating the renewed mind in our own lives. Lust, communication, and forgiveness are some of the practical topics covered. Renewing your mind is taking the thoughts of God’s Word on any given subject into your own mind so that God’s thoughts become your thoughts. The mind of Christ is a new reality because we were born without it until we were born again. The mind and body we were born with cannot produce the spiritual results detailed in God’s Word. Therefore, we have to rely on the newness of life which God created in us in order to get the believing results promised in God’s Word. We have the choice to walk by believing, the greatness of God’s Word, or to follow after a dead existence. We are still God’s children whether we renew our minds or not. We should choose to pursue after the spirit of God within us because it blesses God and because it has great benefits of life and peace. God set up a way for us to have Him in our hearts all the time. The fruit of the spirit is available to us in our lives. The renewed mind is a thought by thought decision. It is an attitude regarding God and His Word. It is a process of putting God first plus believing and acting on who you are in Christ.
Following God: Examples in Action
Following God: Examples in Action Leadership and Service Old Testament Examples Greenkill Conference Center Carr, Jesse Carr, Jerry 06/27/2018 06/27/2018
This teaching looks at examples of people following and not following God. We can follow God by revelation and by knowing His Word from the Bible. The Word is truth and the baseline of our decision making. The world’s way is not working, and people are hungry for real answers. We need God for everything in our lives. When we are given a charge by God, we go. The apostles in Acts 5 followed the angel of the Lord’s instruction to speak God’s Word. Philip ran to serve the Ethiopian eunuch by helping him with God’s Word. Elijah didn’t get all the information from God right away but followed one step at a time. Saul knew the commandment of the Lord but chose not to follow it. We have the greatest revelation ever given for us to follow in God’s Word. Following Christ leads to great rewards if we are doing it according to God’s Word. Obeying God gets us the victory, and that’s how to be more than a conqueror.
