YV BKII CH10 Brahma Propounds the Knowledge of Liberation to VashishthaPardeep Sehgal
Let those who have great minds forsake their worldly desires in order to avoid future births and attend to these lectures with calm contentment.
In our Objective World no one gives us B.A.; M.A. or Ph.D. degrees without going to schools, colleges and universities and seeking help of our teachers.
How can someone guarantee us liberation which is the most difficult task and for which we have made no effort to even know the subject throughout our lifetime, leave aside the company of realized persons?
How the avatars or the Masters of the past can be of any use to us now? Only a living being can guide a living being. Liberation is only possible by following a liberated and not otherwise.
These are the questions for a Cranium-style Bible adventure game where the players travel from Bethlehem to the "ends of the earth", increasing their knowledge of the Bible and singing some Christian songs along the way! Fun for all the family...
You need to download the introduction and board to play.
The incredible odds of one Man fulfilling even 8 prophecies of Messiah's birth, fulfilled centuries later in amazing detail, clearly indicates the veracity of Jesus' claim that He is "I AM" the Messiah.
This is a series of some of the best writings on the power of the HOLY SPIRIT. Some are old writers and some are contemporary. All make it clear that this power is essential for all believers.

Gods Righteousness Through Faith For Both Jew and GentileDon McClain
The Jews who rejected Christ were rejected by God. It is ONLY through faith in the name of Christ that any man can be right with God - The gospel has been preached - it must be heard - it must be believed - and it must be obeyed! Salvation through Christ was indeed God's purpose all along!
The Gospel Demands A Godly Attitude- Chapter 12Don McClain

“Traditions, Are They Good or Bad?" — Wouldn’t you consider it foolish to want to discard a practice merely because it is a “tradition?” So why are some so CRITICAL of traditions?

“The Kind of Preaching That Pleases God”Don McClain
(Successful Preachers in The Bible) — When it come to “preaching,” most measure success VERY differently from how God measures it! Most people are advocates of style over substance, smiles instead of rebuke, embelished emotional storys rather than scripture, compromise without the bold proclamation of truth. This lesson will challenge how most people view preachers & preaching. http://w65stchurchofchrist.org/2017_Sermons/2017_03_12_Preaching_That_Pleases_God.mp3
“The Nature of Saving FAITH” (2)— (Romans 3:19-5:5) In Romans 4 Paul is contrasting two opposing SYSTEMS, “FAITH & WORKS.” The “works” system cannot save a sinner because it demands perfection - and no amount of work can undo the sinners sin. The “Faith” system on the other hand implements forgiveness through Jesus thus providing justification on the grounds of God’s grace. Abraham was justified by the system of faith, not by the system of perfect Law keeping. But what kind of FAITH does the system of faith require? What KIND of FAITH did Abraham Have? - 2/26/2017
http://w65stchurchofchrist.org/coc/
(Hebrews 11:1-40; James 2:14-24; Romans 4:13-25) The Bible speaks of different kinds of faith. There is only one kind of faith that saves us.

own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He
not with Him also freely give us all things? 33 Who
shall bring a charge against God's elect? It is God who
justifies. 34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who
died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the
right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.
13
14. Lesson 9 – Romans 8:26-39
The Gospel – God’s Power To Save Man

35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?
Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or
famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is
written: "For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter." 37

conquerors through Him who loved us.
