The Baptisms of Scripture

Doctrinal Studies, Topical Studies

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.

Our Hope - the Rapture - 3

God\'s Future for the Church

Our hope as members of the body of Christ is the Rapture, the coming of the Lord in the air to take His Church home. This morning, we look at the basis or the foundation of this hope, which is the death and resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ (1 Thess. 4:14).

Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 15:1-23, 1 Thessalonians 4:14

From Series: "God's Future for the Church"

What does God have planned for the future of the Church, the Body of Christ? What can we, as believers, expect to happen in the coming days? As we look at what is happening in the world around us, we might think our future is not very promising. In this series of messages, we take a Scriptural and dispensation look at our blessed hope--the Rapture of the Church and at the judgment believers will one day face at the Judgment Seat of Christ, being careful to note the differences between our future and that of the nation of Israel.
