Messages with tag - Thief in the night

Matthew (2013)
Sunday, April 09, 2017
by Robert Dean
Passage: Matthew 24:32-44
Series: Matthew (2013)
Duration: 48 mins 9 secs
Is the Rapture going to happen during this generation? Listen to this lesson to learn that in the parable of the fig tree Jesus is not talking to Church Age believers but is referring to Jews in the Tribulation. See the fallacy of trying to set dates for the Rapture and the Tribulation. Learn the meaning of “day and hour” and how Jesus was referring to His humanity when He said He didn’t know the timing. Find out how Jesus compares the circumstances of His Second Coning to Noah’s Flood as they were both times of judgment.
Matthew (2013)
Sunday, April 16, 2017
by Robert Dean
Passage: Matthew 24:45-51
Series: Matthew (2013)
Duration: 1 hr 5 mins 2 secs
How do we know what date Easter comes each year? Listen to this lesson to learn that not all Christians celebrate on the same day. Find out the reasons and how the controversies separated churches. Hear the parable of the wicked and righteous servants which Jesus told to His disciples. See that the imagery is of a homeowner who is trying to keep his family safe. Since he doesn’t know when danger will occur he has to always be prepared. Learn that the thief refers to unbelievers who will be judged at the Second Coming of Christ which will surprise them because they are not prepared.
2 Peter (2019)
Thursday, September 02, 2021
by Robert Dean
Passage: 2 Peter 3:10
Series: 2 Peter (2019)
Duration: 1 hr 0 mins 24 secs

If you’ve always believed that the heaven and the earth are completely burned up and a new creation occurs learn in this lesson that there is another view of this held by some well-respected dispensationalists. Find out the language used in the various verses on this matter frequently have more than one meaning and see the context in which they are set. Also, find out that another question to be answered is when this event occurs. Realize that no matter which view you lean toward, the application of this passage is to remind us to get our eyes on eternal things and not just the day-to-day problems that surround us.

During this lesson Dr. Dean referenced the upcoming Council on Dispensational Hermeneutics meeting on September 15–16. 2021. Click here to get more information. We will not be having Bible class on September 16 as Dr. Dean will be attending this conference.
