Galatians 5:16-23 teaches that at any moment we are either walking by the Holy Spirit or according to the sin nature. Walking by the Spirit, enjoying fellowship with God, walking in the light are virtually synonymous. During these times, the Holy Spirit is working in us to illuminate our minds to the truth of Scripture and to challenge us to apply what we learn. But when we sin, we begin to live based on the sin nature. Our works do not count for eternity. The only way to recover is to confess (admit, acknowledge) our sin to God the Father and we are instantly forgiven, cleansed, and recover our spiritual walk (1 John 1:9). Please make sure you are walking by the Spirit before you begin your Bible study, so it will be spiritually profitable.

Most of us who have believed in the Lord Jesus Christ for eternal life recognize by this point in the early twenty-first century that biblically-based Christianity is in for the fight of its life. Adversaries include not only modernism that lives on in science and engineering circles, post-modernism that continues to dominate the liberal arts, but these adversaries also include neo-pagan forms of unbelief and militant, expansive Islam. No believer, and in particular our believing children, can escape these temptations of reinforced arrogance, subjectivity, and hatred of God’s revelation. In the Apostle John’s words, these adversaries are antichrists who all, as we shall see, fundamentally deny that Jesus is the Christ (1 Jo 2:18). ...

Passage: Revelation
Duration: 1 hr 1 mins 51 secs
Revelation 3:10 is rightly know as a passage that supports the pre-trib rapture doctrine, but the second half of the verse introduces us to the first use of the term “earth dwellers.” “Because you have kept the word of My perseverance, I also will keep you from the hour of testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell upon the earth.” 3:10 is the first use in Revelation of a phrase I call “earth dwellers” but usually translated “those who dwell upon the earth.” This phrase is used eleven times in nine verses in Revelation (3:10; 6:10; 8:13; 11:10 2xs; 13:8, 12, 14 2xs; 14:6; 17:8). A preliminary working definition is that “earth dwellers” is a designation for persistent unbelievers during the tribulation. ...
