    The Significance of Our Ideas: Part 1 - Richard E. Simmons III

    Are we aware of the ideas we have about life? Can ideas be dangerous? We live in a culture that gives little thought to our ideas. And whether we are aware of it or not, we all live with a certain set of ideas. Jesus spoke this in Luke 11:33-36, “No one lights a lamp and puts it away in a cellar nor under a basket, but on the lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light. Your eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is clear, your whole body also is full of light; but when it is bad, your body also is full of darkness. So watch out that the light in you is not darkness. Therefore if your whole body is full of light, without any dark part, it will be wholly illuminated, as when the lamp illuminates you with its light." >>Watch on YouTube

    Understanding The Covenants - Richard E. Simmons III

    What are the covenants that are found in the Bible? Today we're discussing the covenants of both the Old Testament and New Testament. In the Old Testament, there was limited access to God. The priests acted as mediators between God and the people. Because human beings inevitably failed to keep the law perfectly, animal sacrifices were required to atone for sin. And these sacrifices had to be repeated continually, highlighting their temporary and incomplete nature. That is the old covenant. Then go to the New Testament, and we read in Hebrews 8:6, "And now He has obtained a more excellent ministry by as much as He (Jesus) is the mediator of a better covenant which has been enacted on better promises." So basically Jesus is the mediator of a better covenant enacted on better promises. This is the new covenant, which makes the old covenant obsolete. What a blessing Jesus is to us! ⁠>>Watch on YouTube

    The Davidic Hope - Dr. Mark Gignilliat

    What does it mean for Christ, who is a part of the triune life of God, to make Himself known and present within the history of Israel? To speak about Jesus in the Old Testament raises all kinds of questions about His pre-existence. That's really a driving concern. Today we will discuss the ways in which the Old Testament patterns and figures for us what God will ultimately do in time in Christ. So in that sense we think about the Old Testament creating a sense of anticipation for what will come in time. From Jeremiah 23:5-6 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch, a King who will reign wisely, and do what is just and right in the land. In His days Judah will be saved and Israel will live in safety. This is the name by which He will be called: The Lord Our Righteous Savior." >>Watch on YouTube

    The Power of Christ's Blood - Richard E. Simmons III

    Are you troubled with guilt? Can doing good things cleanse our hearts and give us the freedom we are searching for? No, the only way we can be forgiven is through the shed blood of Jesus for our sins. Some people hate the idea of the necessity to shed Christ's blood. But if you take out the theology of the cross, then Good Friday and the Easter message is meaningless. Looking in the book of Genesis and moving through the Old and New Testaments, God seems to make it quite clear. The heart of our faith is being forgiven of our sins. That's what gets us into heaven. But the forgiveness of our sins is only possible through the shed blood of Christ. Hebrews 9:14 assures us with this promise,"How much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?" >>Watch on YouTube

    Why Is Good Friday Good? - Richard E. Simmons III

    Why is Good Friday good? In this year's special message that Richard gives each year on Good Friday, he discusses Jesus' conversation with the two criminalsThe 3 hours of darkness that fell over the landThe moment that Jesus finally diedFrom Luke 23:39-43, we read: "One of the criminals who were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not the Christ? Save Yourself and us!”  But the other responded, and rebuking him, said, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed are suffering justly, for we are receiving what we deserve for our crimes; but this Man has done nothing wrong.”  And he was saying, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!” And He said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.” Come to Jesus today. >>Watch on YouTube

    Laying Up Treasures in Heaven - Richard E. Simmons III

    What are you storing up for the future? In Bruce Wilkerson's book A Life God Rewards - Why Everything You Do Today Matters Forever, he tells of a week-long seminary class he taught on rewards in heaven. Every afternoon after the class, a special group of scholars met and debated every point. One day, a church historian from Romania asked the group, "What do the greats of church history such as Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Wesley, and Spurgeon all have in common?" When everyone hesitated, he told the answer. "They all earnestly believed in and hoped for eternal rewards." Wilkerson said that toward the end of the week, he noticed a shift. The room full of scholars were spending less time debating and more time responding personally to the material. One afternoon, an older participant pulled him aside and said, "I thought God brought me here to learn more about eternal rewards, but I was wrong. "He brought me here to change my heart. I'm leaving a changed professor." Jesus reminds us in Matthew 6:20,"But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal..." ⁠ >>Watch on YouTube

    The Motive of the Heart - Richard E. Simmons III

    How can we understand the motive of our hearts? What about the motives of others' hearts? The apostle Paul spoke this wisdom in 1 Corinthians 4:5,“Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God.” >>Watch on YouTube

    The Humanity of God in Genesis - Dr. Mark Gignilliat

    How does God reveal Himself in the Old Testament to us? And where does His Son Jesus peer through? John 1:18 tells us, "No one has ever seen God; God the only Son, who is at the Father's side, He has made Him known." So Jesus, who is the Word, makes visible that which is not visible. We cannot see God in His essence. We would be consumed by that. But what is the Son's unique role? The Son's role is to mediate for us, the Father by the Spirit, so that we can see the unseeable. So that we can know and relate to that which appears to be unknowable. >>Watch on YouTube Dr. Mark Gignilliat is professor of divinity at Beeson Divinity School, where he teaches courses in Old Testament and Hebrew. Mark also serves as theologian in residence at St. Peter's Anglican Church in Birmingham. Dr. Gignilliat is married to Naomi, and they have four children.
