Coastland University - Staying The Course With Brett Peterson

Is what's happening in Israel predicted in the Bible? Could this be a catalyst for end time prophecy to happen? Pastor Brett explores prophecies that have already happened in Israel and what happens next. In recent years, the geopolitical landscape in the Middle East, particularly in the region of Israel, has drawn significant attention from scholars, theologians, and believers alike. Many ind...

Pastor Brett goes through the 10 commandments, explaining and defining all Biblical laws and resolving the debate as to whether or not they are relevant for us today.

Moses acts as priest as he prepares the Israelites to encounter Yahweh on Mt. Sinai. Do you know that when you become a Christian you are a Royal Priest?  Who are we in Christ?  Check out how relevant Exodus is for the Christian today!

Exodus 18 seems to be about leadership and delegation, but there is much more than that in our text.  Jethro seems to be a type of the Church – and the whole chapter is really about relying on God rather than men.

On Christ the Solid Rock I Stand!  Living Water from the Rock!  Pastor Brett clarifies exactly from whom the Israelites and the present Christian obtain their sustenance.

We find the children of Israel grumbling 45 days into their new found freedom.  They wanted to go back to Egypt!  God was testing them, and provided all their needs.  Are you a grumbler and complainer or someone who is grateful?  Storms and tests always come, do you complain or  dance joyfully in the rain?

Pastor Brett continues the journey through the book of Exodus, where we find the first praise song to the Lord. Israel is sanctified by God for exclusive use.

Free but not delivered.  Pastor Brett surveys Exodus 13 & 14, wherein the Israelites escape the hand of the Egyptians and fully trust in Yahweh.

Pastor Brett explains the first Passover, tying it in to Christ's death and communion

Pastor Brett looks at the roots of this nation to ask: does America still trust in God?  Do you trust in God?

Wine is a gift from God!  The law, Moses turns water to blood (pointing to the sacrifice needed for sin).  Jesus fulfilled that and in the new covenant He turned water into wine.   Pastor Brett surveys the first of ten Egyptian plagues, juxtaposing Moses’ miracle of water into blood to Jesus’ first miracle of water into wine.

Pastor Brett urges members of the Church not to harden their hearts like the Pharaoh did. He issues a challenge of "40 Days to Freedom."

Have you ever wondered why God had Moses and Aaron do the ‘staff into a snake’ thing to prove to Pharaoh that they were speaking on behalf of the one true God?  We answer that question today! Pastor Brett explains the significance of the miracle of Aaron’s staff, what it demonstrated to Pharaoh, and tying it all together with Jesus on the cross!

Pastor Brett gives an introduction to the 10 plagues of Egypt as well as archaeological proof for the plagues.

Pastor Brett explains how Moses’ weak character was used by God to make one of the greatest leaders of all time

Pastor Brett continues the message on sanctification.  Is sanctification a completed work done by Jesus, or an on going process?  Why do so many confuse ‘sanctification’ with ‘transformation’?  This is important as we consider our position in Christ!  The book of Exodus is a picture of our deliverance from bondage to sin, our being washed by the blood of Christ, and our being sanctified – set apar...

Pastor Brett considers the promises God made with the nation of Israel in Exodus 6, and how the Exodus is a picture of Salvation in Jesus. Focusing on the element of sanctification, he provides an unfamiliar explanation on the Biblical meaning of what it means to sanctified.

Pastor Brett makes a clear distinction between of the names of God the Father and God the Son, exploring the biblical origin of each.

Pastor Brett explains to us what the name of God is. Christians often call Him ‘LORD,’ but what is God’s proper name?  God desires you to know Him!  He loves you!

Pastor Brett surveys Exodus chapter 5, paralleling the nation of Israel with our Christian walk, urging us to be still and know that YHWH is God.

Pastor Brett concludes he detour from the Book of Exodus and finalizes and summarizes the mistakes of Calvinism and how man truly does have free will and proves that Jesus did in fact die for every person to have the opportunity to choose eternal life!

We continue our detour from Exodus that began with God hardening Pharaoh's heart and break down more errors of Calvinism. We continue our examination of the great debate – are we saved by FATE or are we saved by FAITH? And Pastor Brett clarifies what the Bible says happens to children if they pass away.

We continue our detour from Exodus that began with God hardening Pharaoh's heart and break down more errors of Calvinism. Pastor Brett clarifies the terms that Calvinists use in their truth texts and examines them against Scripture using proper hermeneutics.

We continue our detour from Exodus that began with God hardening Pharaoh's heart and break down more errors of Calvinism. Is God able to save everyone but chooses not to? Do we have free will? Does God actually harden peoples hearts so they won’t choose Him? Why Calvinism is a diabolical belief system that is an affront to the character of God!

Now we take a brief detour from our Exodus study to investigate God hardening Pharaoh's heart and break down the errors in understanding this that led to Calvinism. Is God able to save everyone but chooses not to?  Do we have free will?  Does God actually harden peoples hearts so they won’t choose Him?  Why Calvinism is a diabolical belief system that is an affront to the character of God!
