Jacob

118: The Faith of Dying Men (Hebrews Series #26: Heb. 11:21-22)

On his deathbed, Jacob bestowed the firstborn blessing upon Joseph by adopting Ephraim and Manasseh as his own sons. Also, both Jacob and Joseph made their ancestors promise to relocate their bones to the Promised Land. Pastor Hollandsworth focuses on the faith of these two dying men, who looked to the future and embraced the promises of God. They are examples to Christians today.


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.


021: Pointing Others to the Lamb

John the Baptist pointed others to the Lamb of God, claiming that He would take away the sin (singular) of the world. Pastor Hollandsworth describes the important distinction between sin (singular) and sins (plural). He also explains why Jesus told Nathanael that he would see the angels ascending and descending on the Son of Man and how that relates to millennial inheritance.
