The promise of Life After Death—discover the assurance of it throughout the Old Testament

The Apostle Paul said that “If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied. (1 Cor.15:19)”

The belief in a life after death, a full, bodily resurrection to eternal LIFE and not simply some shadowy existence wandering as a disembodied spirit—that is a foundational promise of the Christian life.

Though most would agree with that statement, a true biblical understanding of life after death is a bit fuzzy to some believers. After encountering the idea that life after death wasn’t clear to people who trusted God in the Old Testament in both some Christian writing and then from some people I respected in other areas of their teaching, I was quite upset, because I believe that uncertainty can cause great pain to many.

I was upset also because, though I do believe in Progressive Revelation, where God reveals His truths more and more fully over time, I also believe that for the core issues, God has been very clear and the clear teaching of life after death, of full bodily resurrection is certainly core to Bible teaching. To resolve the conflict in my mind and heart, I did as I always do, a deep dive into what the Bible actually says about it and this lesson is the result. [Read more…]

Think the Trinity isn’t mentioned in the Old Testament? Spoiler alert—it is—2,600 times

Hard to believe isn’t it?

But that is not an idle claim—though for you to understand why it’s true, you need to watch, read, or listen to Part 3 of the Bible805 series on Understanding the Trinity, the Trinity throughout the Bible.

In addition to supporting this claim, the lesson also goes into the roles of various members of the Trinity in both the Old and New Testaments. What many have found especially interesting in this are the comments by John Walvoord and Warren Wiersbe on the pre-incarnate (before He became the human Jesus) appearances of the God the Son in the Old Testament.

This is a fascinating study and the links below will take you to it.

The Trinity ISN’T Hard to Understand! It really isn’t when you look at what the Bible says about it

Many people believe that the idea of the Trinity is one of the most difficult to understand in the Christian faith.

I very much disagree! God does not intentionally confuse us as to who he is. He desires an intimate, interactive relationship with us.

He created us in his image so he could communicate with us. He walked with his new creation in the Garden of Eden.

When humanity intentionally broke the intimate relationship that they had, God immediately set in place a plan to bring people back into fellowship with Himself. That plan culminated in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus that once again made possible an intimate relationship with God.

With that foundational reality, why do we have the problems in understanding who our God is? The challenge to understand the Trinity is the same challenge of understanding everything else about our faith.

We need to look at what God’s Word says about it, which I’ll help you do and so you won’t simply accept statements about the Trinity that go along the lines of something like this. “Oh, it’s just a mystery we can’t understand.”

Many hear that and quit there. But we won’t. We will look at God’s Word and the passages that specifically deal with the Trinity. [Read more…]
