Inheritance
132: Resisting the Devil (Walking with Jesus Series #003: Matt. 4:1-11)
The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. What was the purpose of this? Pastor Hollandsworth shares six truths demonstrated by Christ’s temptation, explains the nature of each temptation, and emphasizes the believer’s escape from temptation by following Christ’s example.
127: Church of the Firstborn (Hebrews Series #35: Heb. 12:12-29)
Will you be included in the Church of the Firstborn in the heavenlies in the Millennium? Inclusion is not guaranteed for all children of God, but only granted to those believers whom Jesus rewards for living “good and faithful.” Pastor Hollandsworth describes the qualifications for inheriting a place in this glorious assembly in New Jerusalem.
124: Incredible Feats of Faith (Hebrews Series #32: Heb. 11:33-40)
The Old Testament heroes of faith endured all sorts of persecution, in order to “obtain a better resurrection.” Pastor Hollandsworth explains the meaning of this and makes spiritual applications to church age believers, emphasizing the importance of living by faith and sharing in the sufferings of Christ, which results in reward and inheritance.
117: Prophetic Blessings by Faith (Hebrews Series #25: Heb. 11:20)
How could God say that Isaac blessed both Jacob and Esau by faith if Isaac was deceived? Pastor Hollandsworth delves into this fascinating text, demonstrating that Isaac awakened to his error and blessed both sons according to God’s will. Esau is a type of national Israel and those church-age believers who throw their inheritance to the wind. God warns His children not to follow the path of Esau.
109: The Last Will and Testament of Jesus Christ (Hebrews Series #18: Heb. 9:16-10:18)
Jesus left a will, sealed with His blood, known as the New Testament. It names two categories of heirs. First, are the redeemed, children of God who will be resurrected to live in His coming Messianic kingdom. Second, are those He deems worthy of additional firstborn inheritance. The will is presently in probate, which will conclude with distributions at the Judgment Seat of Christ. Â
