The Trinitarian God, Seth Gatchell, July 8 2018Pacific Church
The Bible reveals God to be quite unique. The Bible reveals God to be one being, but three persons…that is one in essence, but three in character (Father, Son, and Spirit). This is a bit difficult for us to wrap our minds around because it can seem a bit contradictory, but Pastor Seth spends this week exploring the “dance” of the Trinity.
CHRISTIAN SUPERNATURAL TEACHINGS, BIBLE CLASS LESSONS, GOSPELS BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU, THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER AND SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD, BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR
In looking at what sin is we began by reviewing why Jesus came then looked at a definition of sin, how sin flows from idolatry and that the end result is God is denied His glory. We finished by summarizing why we need Jesus adding our understanding of sin.
This is an introductory lecture to the biblical world view dealing with the great controversy between God and Satan. It introduces the basis for the conflict and sweeps over a few of the core issues.
Understanding that God is and that the Bible is His Word, we begin to ask the question “Who is man?” In this lesson, we examine the creation of man and what it means to be made in the image and likeness of God.
Join us in studying The Gospel of Mark through Surveying the Son of God! Pastor Jimmy Steele opens up Mark 1:9-13 to speak about the relationships identified in this passage.
Brethren, even if anyone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

– Sci-fi: There is no God
– A fool rejects God (Psalm 14:1 & 53:1)
– Creation proclaims God‟s attributes
(Romans 1:20)
• How many gods?
– Sci-fi: there are many “gods”
– Only one God (1 Corinthians 8:5–6;
Deuteronomy 6:4; Ephesians 4:4–6)
9. For even if there are so-called gods
whether in heaven or on earth, as
indeed there are many gods and many
lords, yet for us there is but one God,
the Father, from whom are all things
and we exist for Him; and one Lord,
Jesus Christ, by whom are all things,
and we exist through Him.
10. You believe that God is one.
You do well; the demons
also believe, and shudder.
11. • Is God involved?

– God shows Himself strong
(2 Chronicles 16:9)
– God hears the prayers of the righteous
(Psalm 5:3, Proverbs 15:29,
1 Peter 3:12)
12. The LORD is far from the wicked,
But He hears the prayer of the
righteous.
13. For the eyes of the Lord are
toward the righteous,
And His ears attend to their
prayer,
But the face of the Lord is against
those who do evil.
14. A secular worldview makes

– Sci-fi: life evolved from primitive goo
– Man was created in God‟s image
(Genesis 1:26–27, 2:7; Psalm 139:14)
• Who were Adam and Eve?
– Sci-fi: Adam and Eve myth or metaphor
– Genesis 1 and 2 are historical narrative
– Adam and Eve were made in the
beginning (Matthew 19:4)
17. And He [Jesus] answered and
said, “Have you not read that He
who created them from the
beginning made them male and
female …”

139:17; John 3:16)
21. What is man that You take thought
of him,
And the son of man that You care
for him?
Yet You have made him a little
lower than God,
And You crown him with glory and
majesty!
22. “For God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten
Son, that whoever believes in
Him shall not perish, but have
eternal life.”

– God created “very good” (Genesis 1:31)
– Death is an enemy (1 Corinthians 15:26)
– Death is the consequence of sin
(Romans 5:12, 6:23)
26. Therefore, just as through one
man sin entered into the world,
and death through sin, and so
death spread to all men,
because all sinned.
27. For the wages of sin is death,
but the free gift of God is
eternal life in Christ Jesus our
Lord.
28. • What is after death?
– Sci-fi: nothingness
– Judgment (Hebrews 9:27)
– Heaven or hell (Matthew 13:41–43)
29. “The Son of Man will send forth His angels,
and they will gather out of His kingdom all
stumbling blocks, and those who commit
lawlessness, and will throw them into the
furnace of fire; in that place there will be
weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then the
righteous will shine forth as the sun in the
kingdom of their Father. He who has ears,
let him hear.”

31. • What is after death?

• Should death be feared?
– Sci-fi: humans fear death
– Christ conquered death
(1 Corinthians 15:54–57
1 Thessalonians 4:13–14)
32. “Death is swallowed up in victory. O
death, where is your victory? O death,
where is your sting?” The sting of
death is sin, and the power of sin is
the law; but thanks be to God, who
gives us the victory through our Lord
Jesus Christ.

word, then you are truly
disciples of Mine; and you will
know the truth, and the truth
will make you free.”

and profitable for teaching, for
reproof, for correction, for training
in righteousness; so that the man
of God may be adequate,

– Defined by the Law of God
(Romans 3:20b, 7:7)

Lord; and you shall love the Lord your
God with all your heart, and with all your
soul, and with all your mind, and with all
your strength.‟ The second is this, „You
