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 Judgment Seat of Christ - 1

God\'s Future for the Church

Sometimes we hear the proclamation that "Judgment Day is Coming!" While many believe there is only one great day of judgment in the future, there are many different judgments of God that await fulfilment. The only judgment that believers in this present age will have to face is the Judgment Seat of Christ, a judgment that is only taught in the writings of the Apostle Paul. This morning, we explore the purpose and nature of this judgment.

Scripture References: 2 Corinthians 5:9-10, Romans 8:1-4, Romans 14:10-18

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.
