Eternal Judgement, Resurrection and the 1,000 Year Rule and Reign of Christ (Ep 59)

After the Lord returns there will be a period of time when the devil is locked up for one thousand years. Christ will rule and reign upon the earth and the first group of people will be resurrected to reign with Him.

This period will end with the devil being loosed and he will gather the nations in the final battle against the people of the Lord. But he will not win. He will be thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur to burn and be tormented for eternity.

Then the second resurrection, the resurrection to judgment will take place and anyone whose name is not written in the book of life will be condemned to destruction.

Listen now to learn more about these fascinating times that are not far off.

The Two Flocks of Jesus Christ (Ep 58)

The Bible shows us that there are two flocks of Christians who will go into the eternal kingdom with Christ. There is the little flock and the large flock.

The bulk of the ministry of Jesus Christ and the apostles was targetted towards the little flock as it is the aim of Jesus Christ that His people become perfect, and the little flock are those who achieve perfection in this age.

Both flocks will receive salvation, but there are some distinct differences between the two flocks, and we should all aspire to be part of the little flock.

This podcast gives some insight into who the two flocks are and what we need to know and do to be part of His little flock.

How to become perfect in the sight of God (Ep 57)

God has provided the process and all things necessary by which we can be perfected in His sight.

Perfection IS possible. In fact, if we are to live with Christ and God the Father in their eternal kingdom, perfection is essential. Matthew 5:48 says that we "...MUST be perfect as the heavenly Father is perfect." Because we MUST be perfect, then God MUST have provided the way we can become perfect.

And He has done exactly this. In this podcast we look at the pathway to perfection and just what it means to be perfected in Jesus Christ and perfect as the Father is perfect.

Understanding the Love of God (Ep 56)

There is only one thing that is eternal and that is the love of God. God is eternal and He has promised eternity to those whom He loves and who love Him in return. This is the promise of the Gospel of Salvation in Jesus Christ.

But what exactly IS the love of God? It is not an emotional, mushy love as depicted in books and movies. It is something more and something greater than that.

The Importance of Bible Study (Ep 54)

One of the most important things we can do as Christians is to study the Bible. It contains the words of the Lord and the lessons on life that we need to know and understand if we are to grow into the children of God and receive salvation.

How anyone can claim to be a Christian and not study God's word is beyond me. However, there are many people who call themselves Christians but who rarely or never open the Bible.

This podcast looks at the importance of Bible study for ALL Christians and shows what the Lord said and the Bible says about the need for studying and learning His word.

Growing into Maturity as a Christian (Ep 53)

As Christians, we are walking with Christ, and our destination in this walk is to be perfect as God is perfect. To be perfect we must become mature in Jesus Christ.

We are not meant to remain as babes and children in Christ. He has provided all of the teachings in the Bible to help us to become mature Christians, able to stand against the wiles of the devil and the passions of the flesh.

He has also provided the ministry gifts to the church for the express purpose of helping us to grow into mature Christians.

This podcast looks at the process of becoming perfect and mature as a Christian.

Communicating with God through Prayer (Ep 52)

Our Heavenly Father wants us to communicate with Him. He wants us to come to Him with ALL parts of our lives and to speak with HIm about our problems, concerns, and issues, as well as the things that make us happy, loved and blessed.

We do this in prayer. It is important that we take the time to pray to God, thanking Him for what He does for us, as well as giving over all aspects of our lives to Him.

Whatever we do we should do it with prayer. All our hopes, dreams and plans should be brought to God in prayer. And when we are waging war in the Spirit, prayer is a powerful tool in the arsenal of weapons we have been given to fight the devil and to be victorious.

This podcast looks at prayer and what will help us to understand why we pray and how we should do it correctly.

Spiritual Warfare - How to wage war in the Spirit (Ep 51)

As Christians, we are at war. It is a war that must be fought and it will be won, in fact, Jesus has already won the victory.

However, as we walk with Christ we are continually under attack from the spiritual forces of evil that rule this world.

But God has given us ways and weapons for us to use to fight the evil that is all around us in the spiritual realm so that we can be victorious in Christ Jesus.

This podcast shows what those weapons are and how we are to use them to wage war in the Spirit to win.

Episode 50 - Speaking in Tongues

One of the most misunderstood yet powerful gifts given by God is speaking in tongues.

Too often this gift is ignored by the modern church, but it is as important today as it was 2,000 years ago. And it was not given for the purpose of spreading the gospel in the arly church as so many believe today.

All of the gifts given by God were given for a specific purpose, and this gift is no different. It is when we understand the power of God's gifts that we can use those gifts to grow and mature in Jesus Christ.

This gift from God is available to all who have received the Holy Spirit and it is a critical and essential part of the weapons God gives His people to wage war in the Spirit. Spiritual warfare without the gift of speaking in tongues becomes much harder and more difficult.

Listen to this podcast today to learn more about this gift from God.
