Reformation (12)

166: A Primer on Eternal Life (Walking with Jesus Series, #029: John 5:16-47)

After healing a man on the Sabbath, the Pharisees are furious. Jesus takes the opportunity to give a lengthy discourse on eternal life. Pastor Hollandsworth shares the correct translation of the Greek word translated eternal and answers critical questions: Is eternal life an end itself, or the means to an end? What is the difference between the gift of eternal life and the reward of eternal life?

114: Primeval Faith (Hebrews Series #22: Heb. 11:4-7)

God places great value on faith, desiring that people in every age trust Him and live uprightly. Pastor Hollandsworth looks at the faith of three antediluvian men – Abel, Enoch, and Noah – also pointing out how they serve as types of events in the future.

113: Faith That Accomplishes (Hebrews Series #21: Heb. 11:1-3)

The just shall live by faith. Pastor Hollandsworth clarifies from Heb. 11, that this quote from the Old Testament is not a soteriological (salvation) statement, as Reformation theology claims. Rather, it is a matter of sanctification, which Hebrews refers to as the “saving of the soul.” Those who live righteously, by faith, will be rewarded by God, like those named in the great faith chapter.

100: Moving On to Maturity (Hebrews Series #11: Heb. 5:11-6:3)

When Christians are too lazy to learn God’s Word and grow deeper spiritually, they become spiritual babies, satisfied with milk rather than meat. Pastor Hollandsworth talks about the vital importance of learning about kingdom inheritance, so we can be prepared to give a good account to Jesus at the Judgment Seat.

091: Hold Fast Your Hope (Hebrews Series #05: Heb. 3:1-6)

Many Christians have no interest in Christ’s coming kingdom. They rarely think or talk about it, for it is not their focus, and they certainly are not preparing to give an account to Jesus for their life. Pastor Hollandsworth explains that only those believers who hold onto a confident expectation of reward, living accordingly, will be rewarded by Jesus and included in His “house.”
