The Plain Truth

In episode 9, We covered divisions that are necessary in the church, and how that true unity is not just going along to get along, but truly agreeing on doctrine, and things of God. Also, how we must humble ourselves to get to a place of true unity. If we want division out of the church, we must again meet and agree on the word of God and let it tell us what the truth is. If we can't, we must...

In this episode, Travis and Rick cover true biblical unity, and how we get there: 1 We speak the same thing by using the same Bible.  2 We have the same mind and judgement by rightfully dividing the King James Bible.  3 We meet at the Bible, let it be our first place we go for truth, and our final authority.  Not only that, but also being saved and having the same Spirit living within us. 

In this episode Travis and Rick finish verse 2. Dealing with how God sees us as saints (those that are saved) because of the salvation He has given believers by Jesus, but also reminding us what being a saint means. It is a calling we ought to walk worthy of.

In this episode, Travis and Rick start into verse number two, again looking in depth at one phrase: sanctified in Christ Jesus. Mainly the word sanctified. They go back to the first time the word is used, then on through the Bible into the New Testament to draw out the true definition, and make sure what we have heard about this word is correct. They tie it into the phrase used here by Paul speaki...

This episode, Travis is accompanied by Aiden, who is a deacon here at Gilead Baptist Church. They finish the study on that phrase "sanctified in Christ Jesus" by searching the scriptures and seeing the more personal side of sanctification that we must do. Living a holy, sanctified, life is not always easy, sticks out in the world, and is something God expects us to do after we get saved....
