    The Bigger Issue in the Cornell 7 Case: A Pastor’s Response

    Student protests at Cornell University over an alleged sexual assault have drawn national attention, and most of the public conversation has centered on one question: was it consensual? Dr. Broggi responds from Scripture. Justice for anyone who has been violated matters, and Christians should never dismiss it. But there is a deeper question the culture rarely asks: what does God say about sex outside of marriage, and about drunkenness?

    What Jesus Taught About Money and Eternal Rewards

    Dr. Broggi continues the series on the Judgment Seat of Christ. He looks at the first level of evaluation, what we did for the Lord, through its third element: how we use the money and possessions God has entrusted to us. Working through Luke 16 (the parable of the shrewd manager), Dr. Broggi argues that believers are stewards, not owners. He also argues that how we invest what we hold now can be part of what we meet in eternity.

    Raised in False Teaching? Where to Begin Again | Ask Dr. Broggi

    Discovering errors in the faith you grew up with can be painful. Where do you begin when beliefs you have held for years need to be reconsidered? A former Adventist from Argentina asks about the difficulty of learning Christian teaching afresh. The response centers on salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone—and the distinction between essential Christian beliefs and secondary doctrinal issues. The discussion covers the Trinity, Christ’s deity and resurrection, grace and obedience, Sabbath observance, eternal judgment, and the speaker’s case for eternal security. Dr. Broggi draws on his own experience of conversion from Roman Catholicism, the speaker explains how someone can come to faith while still having much to learn.CHAPTERS 00:00 A question from a former Adventist 02:37 Essential Christian beliefs 05:53 Grace, obedience, and eternal judgment 09:11 Eternal security and biblical context 11:29 Christ’s conception, resurrection, and return 15:02 The speaker’s conversion from Roman Catholicism 16:47 Responding without bitterness and helping others 19:48 Basic discipleship resources📝 SHOW NOTES⁠Book of Revelation Sermon Series⁠ - https://searchthescriptures.org/resources/messages-broadcasts/sermon-list/#series=revelation/💡 RESOURCES⁠Would You Like to Know God as Your Friend?⁠⁠ -https://searchthescriptures.org/sermon/would-you-like-to-know-god-as-your-friend/Institute of Biblical Studies⁠⁠ -https://searchthescriptures.org/resources/institute-of-biblical-studies/Spiritual Gift Exam -https://searchthescriptures.org/gifts/⁠⁠Living a Spirit Filled Life⁠ -https://searchthescriptures.org/sermon/living-a-spirit-filled-life/💪 HELP SUPPORT SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES -- https://tr.ee/xWBtgr📱DOWNLOAD THE APP!Apple App Store -https://apps.apple.com/us/app/search-the-scriptures/id717448878Google Play Store -https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.subsplash.thechurchapp.searchthescriptures🤳 FOLLOW US:Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/searchthescriptures/Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/stscriptures/X -https://x.com/STScripturesYouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@searchthescriptures_broggi

Dr. Broggi explains why he identifies prayer as an expression of the gift of faith rather than a separate spiritual gift listed in the New Testament.The discussion explores how spiritual gifts equip the church, why we should avoid expecting everyone to share our particular intensity or ministry focus, and how discipleship helps believers develop their gifts.Topics include:- Prayer as an expression of the gift of faith- The difference between equipping others and projecting your gift onto them- Examples involving evangelism, mercy, and prayer- Understanding, using, and developing spiritual gifts- The principle of multiplication illustrated through 2 Timothy 2:2CHAPTERS 00:00 Is intercessory prayer a spiritual gift?01:18 The gift of faith and equipping others02:12 Avoiding “gift projection”02:44 Prayer as an expression of faith04:18 Discovering and developing your gifts06:10 Equipping faithful people to teach others07:25 Helping others grow in prayer📝 SHOW NOTES⁠Book of Revelation Sermon Series⁠ - https://searchthescriptures.org/resources/messages-broadcasts/sermon-list/#series=revelation/💡 RESOURCES⁠Would You Like to Know God as Your Friend?⁠⁠ -https://searchthescriptures.org/sermon/would-you-like-to-know-god-as-your-friend/Institute of Biblical Studies⁠⁠ -https://searchthescriptures.org/resources/institute-of-biblical-studies/Spiritual Gift Exam -https://searchthescriptures.org/gifts/⁠⁠Living a Spirit Filled Life⁠ -https://searchthescriptures.org/sermon/living-a-spirit-filled-life/💪 HELP SUPPORT SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES -- https://tr.ee/xWBtgr📱DOWNLOAD THE APP!Apple App Store -https://apps.apple.com/us/app/search-the-scriptures/id717448878Google Play Store -https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.subsplash.thechurchapp.searchthescriptures🤳 FOLLOW US:Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/searchthescriptures/Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/stscriptures/X -https://x.com/STScripturesYouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@searchthescriptures_broggi
