This week we looked at our need for God in our life and our need to be forgiving just as God is forgiving. However, in Isaiah 6:6-7 it appears that forgiveness of sin occurs without blood. But wasn’t the creation of the animal sacrificial system that pointed to Christ’s split blood the only means by which one is cleansed of sin? Pastor John Samuel Barnett breaks down the passage in question and how it relates to the atonement system.

One of the biggest accomplishments of Christ’s atonement on the cross was by creating a way in which God could forgive us for our rebellion against Him. As Christians, we are called and commanded to forgive and to forgive an unlimited number of times (Ephesians 4:32, Colossians 3:13, Matthew 18:21-35, etc).

But what if we choose not to forgive others as we read about in the Lord’s Prayer? Pastor John Samuel Barnett informs us on the dangers of being an unforgiving Christian.

Stressed, tired, rushed, and busy. Words we can probably all claim to be experiencing especially with the upcoming holidays. In an age where we try and cram nine hours of work into an eight hour day. An age where all the world’s books and news agencies are just a click away. An age where we are able to go to more places, experience more things, try new things, be part of different groups. We can feel ourselves stretched and controlled and pulled in too many directions.
 
Because of those reasons and more, we need God to take our uneasy life and focus and control us. We need God to be Lord over our time. Pastor John Samuel Barnett teaches on God’s ability to safely focus us and control us in our daily lives.

The cross is the central peak of space, time, history, and everything. The Law had been fulfilled and the perfection of salvation had come. But what of those who lived and died before the time of the cross and what exactly happens when those “AD” experience death.

For this week’s Q&A, Pastor John Samuel Barnett answers the question.

Who has an easy life? The rich have their problems and so does the poor. The Americans have their problems and so does the Russian. Those that work in the morning and those that work at night. Those without kids and those who have. The healthy and the sick.

When a person becomes a Christian, there isn’t a magical aura that envelopes you and keeps you from troubles. In fact, when becoming a Christian you switch sides and make an enemy of a pretty nefarious character. No longer are we children of Satan but children of the Mighty God. Thus we come under spiritual attack. And like all the different types of people above, the Christian faces problems.

But where can we turn to that could make a difference. Pastor John Samuel Barnett opens God’s Word to show us the one and best place to go when facing an attack.

Jesus Christ entered into His creation in the incarnation for many, many reasons. We know that He came as a payment for sins, to show reliance on the Spirit, and revealed a fuller understanding of God’s Word. Just to name a few. Pastor John Samuel Barnett shows that another reason that Jesus came to us in the flesh was to accurately reveal the Father to us and what His will is so that we might believe and do.
