Part 6 Introduction

John the Baptist and Jesus Christ had the same message at the beginning of Christ’s ministry: “Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” The Cross works out of Christ’s rejection as king. The first and second advents of Christ are inseparately tied together. A weak view of Christ leads to a strong view of Caesar (the State). The sin central to God the Holy Spirit’s gospel ministry is the sin of rejection and disbelief in Jesus Christ. The ascension of Christ was as much a physical event as the Cross. Questions and answers (Clear gospel presentations).

Paul confronts unbelief (continued). The purpose of history. There are right ways and wrong ways to think. The resurrection of Christ is the first installment of the eternal state and, therefore, a massive threat to the unbeliever. God can’t reveal Himself any clearer than He is in the Person of Jesus Christ. Recognizing foolishness for foolishness and wisdom for wisdom.
