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.

It is Finished

Jesus\' Words from the Cross

As Jesus neared the time of His death, knowing all things were accomplished that He was sent to do, and ensuring that every prophecy regarding His sufferings and death were fulfilled, He cried out with a loud voice, "It is finished!" Only one word in the Greek language, but what a powerful statement, and what a meaningful statement, even to us today. While we cannot fully comprehend the depth of these words, a careful examination of them yields rich truths that affect our salvation and our standing before God.

Scripture References: John 19:28-30

From Series: "Jesus' Words from the Cross"

The crucifixion of Christ is the greatest event in all of history--the accomplishment of God's eternal purpose of redemption through our Savior, Jesus Christ. The Scriptures record seven statements that Jesus made from the cross. In this study, we examine each of these statements, to understand more about the person of our Savior and of what He accomplished for us by His death on the cross.
