New Jerusalem
147: Christ’s Near-Death Experience (Walking with Jesus Series #013: Luke 4:14-30)
In the synagogue at Nazareth, Jesus read from the Isaiah scroll, applying the text to Himself, by concluding with the statement, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” Pastor Hollandsworth discusses the glorious nature of Christ’s ministry, as described in Luke 4:18-19, and explains why the people marveled at Him in the synagogue, yet moments later were eager to throw him off the rocky cliff at the edge of town.
130: The Most Misinterpreted Verse of the Bible (Walking with Jesus Series #001: Matt. 3:1-12)
John the Baptist introduced the ministry of Jesus with a call for the nation to repent. Most evangelicals assume this is one of the requirements for salvation. However, Pastor Hollandsworth demonstrates clearly from the text that repentance is NOT a requirement for salvation, for John was preaching to believers, not unbelievers.
097: Dividing Soul and Spirit (Hebrews Series #08: Heb. 4:12-13)
God can divide soul and spirit and even joints and marrow. What purpose does this serve? Pastor Hollandsworth explains this Judgment Seat text and God’s purpose for dividing.
047: What Happens When We Die?
Do believers go to Heaven and unbelievers go to Hell when they die, or do all remain “asleep” until the future resurrection and judgment? Pastor Hollandsworth searches the Scriptures to see if the Intermediate State position, held by most Christians, is biblical.
045: Eternal Is Not Forever
The Bible words “eternal,” “everlasting,” and “forever” are mistranslations of the Greek adjective “aionios,” which actually means “age-lasting” or “for the age.” Pastor Hollandsworth explains how this error crept into English Bible translations and explores the ramifications with respect to Heaven and Hell.
