The battle started before Adam and Eve showed up. The “purpose of the ages” finds its fulfillment in the “…new heavens and new earth…” of 2 Peter 3: 13—Paradise regained, and much more. God is also coming back, not just Jesus. Man’s “walk in the garden relationship” that was lost will be reestablished. __________________________ ONE DAY WITH THE CREATOR: Syllabus: …
Segment 2, Part 3: The Hebrew Scriptures: God’s Blueprint For The Redeemer
Genesis—Malachi are not the “Old Testament,” but rather “the Hebrew Scriptures,” and they were written in large part, if not primarily, for Jesus Christ. Each of these 39 “books” points to a different aspect of the life of the Redeemer of mankind and the Messiah to Israel. As we read many excerpts from Genesis-Malachi, we see: The bloodline of the …

Segment 4, Part 1: Who Jesus Christ Is Determines Who He Is Not
This critical segment addresses the answer to the most important question there is, which was asked by Jesus Christ, and which every human being will eventually have to answer: “Who do you say that I am?” If we know who Jesus is, we also know who he is not. We cover what the Bible says about the “Trinity,” what a …
Segment 1: Magnifying Jesus Christ, The Living Truth
Here we introduce the only-begotten Son of the only True God by answering the following questions, and more. Who is Jesus Christ? Why did he live and die as he did? What is man’s basic problem that Jesus came to solve? Why is Jesus called in Scripture “the Last Adam”? What does it mean that he is “the diameter of …
Segment 14: The Son Is Always Shining
Scripture shows that the Sun in our celestial universe represents Jesus Christ as the Redeemer of mankind. This closing segment is all about the fascinating parallels between the SUN and the SON (of God), a terrific homonym that we English-speaking folks get to employ. No wonder that Satan, the master counterfeiter, has obscured that glorious truth from so many and …
Segment 13: Resurrection Revolution! (Death Unto Life)
Jesus Christ reversed the age-old pattern of life unto death, and made it death unto life for those who choose to trust him. His Resurrection started the Revolution, and he is recruiting other revolutionaries who want to follow in his steps. Jesus blazed a trail of trust through the wilderness of sin and death, and he invites each of us …
Segment 12: Who You Are IN CHRIST
No Christian need suffer from an “identity crisis,” because the Word of God is clear about who you are as a “son of God.” The more we see the magnitude of who we are and what we have IN CHRIST, the more our faith will appropriate the riches of His glory. We who answered the call of Christ are his …
Segment 11: Jesus Christ, The True Lover of Your Soul
It was God’s idea to exalt Jesus as “Lord,” and when we honor and worship him, we honor God (John 5:23). Conversely, if we diminish the role God intended him to play in our lives, we dishonor both him and God. In this segment we look at who Jesus is to The Ekklesia (Christians) and what he is doing now …
Segment 10: Jesus Christ and YOU (A Man Named Peter)
Grasping the Lordship of Jesus Christ is the key to your everlasting life (Rom. 10:9), and to powerful daily living (1 Pet. 3:15). Your relationship with Jesus Christ is the bottom line of your Christian walk. The problem: our persistent humanity. God has provided us with a real life example of someone with whom we can easily identify. Peter personified …
