In James 4:1-10, the Holy Spirit reveals that loving the world is tantamount to being unfaithful to God. Worldliness is equated with adultery. This shows the degree of treachery the worldly Christian is guilty of committing toward God.

Brother Greer did a fine job this past week, and I commend each of these lessons to you!

The apostle Paul, in Philippians 2:5-8 indicates that we are to have the mind of Christ. Those things that are characteristic of Christ, things such as:

• Love
• Obedience
• Sacrifice
• Submission
• Loyalty
• Purity
• Industry
• Courage

Should be characteristic of us as well, as Christ has left “us an example, that you should follow His steps” (cf. 1 Peter 2:21-22).

This series is entitled “A Refutation of the A.D. 70 Doctrine.” It was preached at the West Side church on three consecutive Sundays, on October 11, 18, 25, 2009.

The series was not intended to be an extensive review of the doctrine, also known as Realized Eschatology. Such an undertaking would require much more time than reserved for this series. Instead, Stan examined what the Bible teaches about the end times, introduced the error, and established a few clear principles that clearly show this peculiar doctrine to be false.

This post contains links to all the materials available from the series.

• Lesson 1 – Bible Eschatology PPT MP3
• Lesson 2 – Introduction to Realized Eschatology PPT MP3
• Lesson 3 – Refuting Realized Eschatology PPT MP3

This is the third lesson of three designed to refute the A.D. 70 Doctrine. This doctrine asserts that all prophecy was consummated at the fall of Jerusalem in A.D. 70. Hence, the Second Coming of Christ, the resurrection of the dead and the end of the world all have already happened.

Lesson 3 continues the second lesson in refuting the doctrine of Realized Eschatology.

The sermon is based on the text of 2 Corinthians 1:3-6. We may suffer persecution and distress in our lives as Christians, but we are partakers in the suffering of Christ, and as such we have consolation and comfort as a result of our relationship to him. Of course, ultimately that consolation has an eternal application because of our hope of heaven.
