When Ezekiel was commissioned by God to begin his prophetic work, he had an incredible vision. The son of man saw a whirlwind, four living creatures, wheels which moved in every direction, and many incredible colors which appeared in the sky. Evangelist Smith Bibens masterfully explains the true purpose of this powerful experience and how it demonstrated “the glory of the Lord” (Ezekiel 1:28).
There were a number of occasions during Christ’s earthly ministry when He would do something spectacular and then tell those who witnessed the event not to tell anyone of what they saw. This has led to the development of a critical theory that Jesus never actually believed he was the Messiah because when people claimed He was, He told them to keep quiet. In this enjoyable sermon, evangelist Jerry Dickinson examines the idea of the secret Messiah.
What is natural law and how is it discerned? How is natural different from divinely revealed law? What did Paul mean when he wrote that Gentiles “who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law…” (Romans 2:14)? These questions have puzzled philosophers and Christian thinkers for centuries. In this first presentation from the 2019 Mid-MO Study, evangelist Mike Criswell delivers a helpful overview of this challenging topic.
