Preparing yourself for the study of God’s Word
Before we begin, only if you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ (that is; you have believed [trusted] in Him for His promised gift of eternal life) John 3:16, John 6:47 as a few examples; it is very important to prepare yourself to learn God's Word so the Holy Spirit can teach you as to what your reading or hearing is true or false. To be taught by the Holy Spirit you must be filled with the Holy Spirit which means abiding in Christ. To place yourself in fellowship with God the Holy Spirit [also called abiding in the Christ], take a moment to simply name, cite or acknowledge [confess] your known unconfessed sins privately to God (i.e.; with your thoughts directed only to God the Father). Why? Because you cannot grow spiritually if you’re not abiding in Christ [in fellowship with Him] when you take in bible truth.
1 John 1:9, says: “If we confess [meaning to simply name, cite or acknowledge to God the Father] our sins [known unconfessed sins], He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins [known sins] and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness [all unknown and forgotten sins];” NKJV (New King James Version); we call this REBOUND; read the full doctrine as to “why” we need to use 1 John 1:9 to grow spiritually. Left click the following link to learn more and fully understand the doctrine of Rebound; which answers the question, why do I need to keep confessing my sins all the time? REBOUND
If you have never personally believed in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior (that is, believed in Him for eternal life), the issue for you is not to name your sins to God; the issue for you is to believe by faith alone in Jesus, The Christ alone for eternal life [salvation] and you will be saved [receive Eternal Life] the very micro second you believe in Him:
John 6:47 says: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” NKJV
Notice again what John 6:47 says, “he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” It doesn’t say, “will have”; it says, “has.” Therefore, the very moment you believe Jesus Christ’s promise of everlasting life, you have it (it’s really just that simple), and it can never be lost or taken away from you (John 10:28-29). Furthermore, the gift of everlasting life (also called eternal life in scripture) is available to every human being; there are absolutely no exceptions.
John 3:14-18 says: “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness [Num 21:4-9], even so must the Son of Man be lifted up [the cross], that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” NKJV
Let us now bow our hearts and take a moment to prepare for learning God’s Word, if there is any known sin in your life, this is the time to just cite it privately to God the Father with your thoughts directed towards Him. With your head bowed and your eyes closed, you have total privacy in your mind and soul:

Sermon
NOTES
Unlike the bible study, these notes are not just for reading without watching the video. These notes are more designed to follow along during the sermon and to bring up the “hover pop-up scripture references;” if just hover doesn’t work, do a “control-left-click,” if that doesn’t work then look them up in your Bible when the Pastor asks everyone to turn to that passage in their bibles.
God both cares and has the power, but He is planning something which demands the coming chaos of man’s world in order to demonstrate to all that help is to be found in Himself alone.
They totally admit their own spiritual bankruptcy and have turned utterly to the Lord Jesus Christ as God’s one and only answer to their problems.
Jn 17:9 “I ask on their behalf; I do not ask on behalf of the world, but of those whom Thou hast given Me; for they are Thine;”
They do not recognize that there is a war on, and God neither will nor can yield.
1Ti 3:16 And by common confession great is the mystery of the unique spiritual life:
1TIi 3:16 - He [God] who was revealed in the flesh, Was vindicated in the Spirit, Beheld by angels, Proclaimed among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Taken up in glory.
2Co 4:4 the gospel of the glory of Christ,
Dislocating pastors dispensationally will mislead congregations thoroughly!
To understand God’s grace to the maximum, they have to study the objects of maximum grace, fallen, depraved, unworthy, spiritually dead members of the human race.
That teaches them something about God which they could never see - the grace and mercy of God toward undeserving and unworthy creatures.
1Co 1:27 but God has chosen the foolish ones [moros] of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak ones of the world to shame the ones which are strong,
1Co 1:28 and unknown ones of the world and the despised, that He might nullify the things that are,
His grace being manifested to us brings glory to Him in the angelic conflict; that is why there is such an attack upon the grace of God.
In salvation through faith in Christ, regenerate mankind becomes positionally superior to angels through the baptism of the Spirit and positional sanctification.
This makes us royal family of God and a new spiritual species, so all believers can live the unique spiritual life of freedom instead of an independent life of slavery.
That’s when Jesus Christ received His third royal warrant, the King of kings and the Lord of lords, and the angelic conflict shifted gears into its intensified stage.
Our Lord became the victor of the angelic conflict as an inferior creature to angels, a member of the human race.
God could not say this to deity and never said this to an angel; He said this to the humanity of Christ, making the humanity of Christ superior to angels.
Eph 2:6 that God the Father raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus,
We cannot take advantage of our position now on earth unless we live in the PPOG designed for us in eternity past by God the Father.
Php 3:8 More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord,
Php 3:8 - for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish in order that I may gain Christ,
2Co 6:1 “We also urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain”
Rom 5:6 For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
