The purpose of this series is to look at the concept of baptism as it is described in the Scriptures. Most people have a very narrow view of baptism that is often based on church traditions rather than the Word of God. Baptism, as it is seen in both the Old and New Testaments, is a much deeper subject; it has great spiritual meaning beyond that of a simple religious ordinance or ritual. When a person hears the word “baptism” their first thought is usually water baptism, but there are many different baptisms spoken of in the Scriptures, most of which do not involve water at all. In this series of lessons, we examine the various baptisms found in the Scriptures to see the origin and meaning of the word, and to understand the importance of the spiritual baptism that places us in Christ in this present dispensation.
These Bible lessons were taught by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2021-2022 during the adult Sunday school class at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

The Power of His Resurrection - In Us
Paul prayed for the Ephesian saints to know and understand the power of Christ's resurrection worked out toward those who believe. Paul also prayed for them to know and experience this same power working in and through them. This was his own heartfelt desire and purpose: "that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection." In this message, we consider how we too can know our Savior by experiencing the power of His resurrection in our hearts and lives.
