Everyone suffers at some time in their lives. The correct response to suffering is turning towards God. Only Christianity adequately explains and makes sense of both the cause and cure for evil and suffering in our world. Jesus suffered to provide us with the possibility of eternal salvation.

0:00 - Introductions

1:11 - SUFFERING IS BEARING PAIN, INCONVENIENCE, LOSS, INJURY. NO OTHER RELIGION DEALS WITH SUFFERING BETTER THAN CHRISTIANITY.

1:53 - WHAT ARE SOME CAUSES FOR SUFFERING?

-Our sin and failure

-Other people’s sins

-Forces outside of our control (“natural evil”)

-Christian persecution

3:33- REGARDLESS OF THE SOURCE OF SUFFERING, NOTHING HAPPENS OUTSIDE OF GOD’S SOVEREIGN CONTROL

3:54 – HOW DO PEOPLE RESPOND TO TRIALS? Blame, deny, self-pity, embittered.

5:08- THE CORRECT RESPONSE TO SUFFERING IS TRUSTING AND YIELDING TO GOD (JAMES 1:2-4). Asking God to walk with us (Ps. 34:18).

6:50- WHY WOULD A GOOD GOD ALLOW SUFFERING IN THE WORLD WHICH HE CREATED? CRITICS OF CHRISTIANITY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR GIVING US A “BETTER” ANSWER THAN OURS. CHRISTIANITY EXPLAINS BOTH THE CAUSE AND THE CURE FOR EVIL AND SUFFERING. SUFFERING DOES NOT MEAN THAT GOD DOES NOT LOVE US!

9:25 - JESUS KNOWS SUFFERING FIRSTHAND

-He was crucified for us so we can have eternal life with him.

10:46 - HOW CAN ANY “GOOD” COME FROM OUR SUFFERING?  “We can ignore even pleasure. But pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world.” ― C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain. GOD ALLOWS SUFFERING TO STRENGTHEN OUR FAITH AND CONFORM US TO BE MORE LIKE JESUS.

14:11 - WHAT RESOURCES DO WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE SUFFERING IN OUR LIVES? 1. PRAYER: laments, confession, forgiving.

15:53 - 2. THE BIBLE: saturating your heart with the Word will help control your emotions. Memorize three verses about suffering: Romans 8:28, James 1:2–4, and 1 Peter 1:6–9

16:59 - 3. THE HOLY SPIRIT: the third Person of the Godhead. Romans 8:26, Romans 8:18.

18:56 - 4. OTHER PEOPLE (Gal. 6:2).

20:03 - 5. STORIES OF SUFFERING: other Christians have suffered well (1 Pet. 5:9-10; 4:12-13).

21:58 - SO WHAT? 1. Choose joy. 2. Have an eternal perspective. 3. The Christian God knows firsthand about suffering (Heb. 4:15).

25:19 - NEXT STEP: READ ROMANS 8. Choose one truth to pray about or share with a friend!

26:26 - Thank you and wrap-up

The inspiration of the Bible is the last topic of our eight-part series entitled “Putting the Fun in…”. We have put fun into the fundamentals or essential doctrines of Christianity. “Inspiration” refers to the Holy Spirit carrying along the authors to write the very words of God.

0:00 - Welcome

1:02 - Inspiration refers to Scripture being God-breathed “All Scripture is breathed out by God…” (2 Tim 316).

2:01 - Inspiration is a mystery. But we know the Holy Spirit “carried along” each author (2 Pet.1:21).

3:00 - It is the words themselves that are inspired. Each biblical book has two authors, God, and a human author.

4:00 - Is there any proof that the Bible is Inspired?

4:15 - The Old Testament is inspired according to the authors.

4:50 - Jesus also confirmed the Old Testament inspiration when he said, “It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” (Matt. 4:4).

5:14 - Jesus promised the New Testament’s inspiration through the Holy Spirit when he said “[T]he Holy Spirit … will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you” (John 14: 26).

6:04 - New Testament writers also confirm its inspiration. Peter writes, “[O]ur beloved brother Paul also wrote to you … as he does in all his letters … There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures.” (2 Peter 3:15-16).

8:27 - The Bible’s unity points to inspiration spanning 1500 years.

11:25 - Fulfilled prophecy is evidence of inspiration.

12:25 - There are more than 300 fulfilled prophecies about Jesus.

16:03 - So What? Turn to the Bible as the only trustworthy, reliable and errorless source to live a contented and godly life.

18:18 - Wrap up

Jesus’s Second Coming is the seventh topic in our eight-part series on “Putting the Fun In…” the fundamentals or essential doctrines of Christianity.

At some unknown time in the future, Jesus will return to earth. His Second Coming will be a lightning-like descent in the clouds with his angels and glorified saints for all to see. The Second Coming initiates Christ’s judgment of everyone. It also ushers in the new heavens and new earth. The Second Coming reminds us the end could be at any time and for Christians to pursue God-honoring lives.

0:00 - Welcome

2:00 - The Second Coming refers to Christ’s return to earth. Several parties promised Jesus’s Second Coming:

1. Jesus said,  “[Y]ou will see the Son of Man … coming with the clouds of heaven” (Mark 14:62)

2. Two angels at Christ’s ascension said, “Jesus … will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.” (Acts 1:11)

3. Several New Testament authors.

3:30 - What’s the big deal about the Second Coming? The Second Coming’s date is unknown, but it will be physical, personal, and sudden.

4:45 - 2 Purposes for Second Coming:

1. To resurrect and transform everyone for judgment. Jesus will judge and reward each Christian based on how we have lived our Christian lives. The unsaved will be cast into hell.

2. Jesus will also restore new heavens and new earth (Rev 21:4).

6:50 - So what? How should we respond when no one knows when Christ will return (Matt. 24:36).

7:08 - Non-Christians should consider God’s offer of eternal life through Jesus Christ. Embrace the Judge as your Savior.

8:39 - Christ’s judgment of believers should motivate us to Godly lives. Christ rewards us based on what we have done with the gifts and opportunities he has given us. Am I suffering for Jesus?

Christ’s ascension is the sixth topic in our eight-part series, “Putting the Fun in…” the fundamentals (or essential doctrines) of Christianity. After his resurrection, Jesus appeared at least eleven times over forty days to more than 500 witnesses, and then he ascended to heaven (Acts 1:9) in the disciples’ presence (Acts 1:10-11). The ascension marked the end of his ministry on earth. But he has several heavenly roles while we await his second coming.

0:00 - Welcome

2:30 - There were at least 11 appearances of Jesus post-resurrection to more than 500 witnesses (1 Cor.15:6).

5:24 - 2. Taught his disciples how to interpret Scriptures correctly (Luke 24:27)

6:36 - 3. He promised the Holy Spirit’s coming to empower them (Acts 1:8).

9:55 - 3. Christ sends the Holy Spirit to empower disciples

10:13 - 4. Initiates Jesus’s role as Head over the Church (Rom. 12:5).

Jesus’s resurrection is the fifth episode in an eight-part series entitled “Putting the Fun in…” the fundamentals (or essential doctrines) of Christianity. Four indisputable facts prove the resurrection without any valid arguments against it.

0:25 - Introduction

1:23 - Resurrection: Jesus came back to life in a glorified physical body, never to die again (1 Cor. 15:1-4).

2:59 - Why is the resurrection important?

3:10 - 1. Proves Jesus is God.

3:28 - 2. God accepted Christ’s death as a sin offering.

3:38 - 3. It promises future resurrections for all Christians (Rom. 6:4–5)

4:20 - Historical evidence: Four indisputable facts prove the resurrection.

4:30 - 1. Jesus lived and died.

5:00 - 2. Transformed disciples preached in Jerusalem. The only explanation is that they had seen the risen Jesus.

6:00 - 3. Jewish leaders could not disprove the disciple’s message (Acts 4:1-22).

6:35 - 4. The disciples died for their belief (Acts 7:57–60)!

7:18 - “You could die for something false… but you’re not gonna die for something you know is false.”

7:56 - Five arguments against the resurrection

8:56 - 1. First, the disciples did not go to the wrong tomb. Opponents could go to the right tomb and produce Jesus’s dead body.

9:21 - 2. Second, the disciples did not steal Christ’s body (Matt. 28:13) and then die for what they knew was a lie.

10:45 - 3. Third, Jesus did not pass out! This idea is inconsistent with Roman flogging, crucifixion, and spear wound into his side (John 19:32–34).

11:31 - 4. Fourth, mass hallucinations are impossible. Jesus appeared to more than 500 witnesses at one time (1 Cor. 15:6)

12:16 - 5. Fifth, the resurrection cannot be a myth. Myths take more than two generations and geographical isolation. Neither is applicable here.

14:07 - So what? The resurrection is worth praising God for (1 Pet. 1:3-4)!

15:03 - Use this information to talk with others.

15:51 - Wrap up

Substitutionary atonement is the fourth in our eight-part series, “Putting The Fun In...” where we are discussing Christianity’s “fundamentals” (or essentials). Substitutionary atonement is what happened when Jesus died on the cross. He was our substitute, enduring God the Father’s hatred of sin and taking our punishment for our sins. Christ substituted himself for us. And his death atoned or covered our sins. Our accepting him as our Lord leads to salvation.

0:00 - Introductions

2:50 - “Substitutionary” means taking the place of someone else. “Atonement” is the idea of covering—specifically the covering of sin.

4:10 - Atonement involves an innocent party taking on the punishment that was due to a guilty party.

4:25 - Jesus’ death on the cross accomplished three things: Sacrifice, Substitution, and Atonement.

1. Sacrifice: Jesus chose to die to take the sins of humankind

6:14 - 2. Substitution: Christ died as our substitute.

9:35 - 3. Atonement: Jesus blood covers us. Now when God looks at Christians, instead of seeing enemies, he only sees the righteousness of Jesus (2 Cor. 5:21).

10:40 - So What?

14:15 - Thank you and Close
