Only Ahead, Never Turn Back

Neil Woodbury Heb. 6: 1-18

In “The Faith” of the followers of Christ Jesus, we enter as “babes” drinking milk – but we are expected to grow and mature in “The Faith”. This is the proper process for the child of God – but something much worse can happen to the believer, he can turn back, becoming apostate towards the Lord and His Assembly. This we must guard against!

II. To fall away brings shame upon the Lord and The Faith

a. Read Hebr. 6: 4-12

III. God’s oath and Promise

Do Not Go Beyond What is Written! Neil Woodbury 1 Cor. 4: 5-6

The statement of Christendom is “Jesus was God” or Jesus said He was God – This statement has caused much confusion to those naming Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior – and violates the Apostolic command in 1 Cor. 4: 5-6 Read

I. Delegated authority (power) is the true teaching of the passage;

b. Jesus the Way to the Father

Jesus – High Priest unto the Brethren

Neil Woodbury Hebrews 5: 1-14

The New Testament writings declare Jesus Christ as the High Priest of the Assemblies of Christ. And so it is, but to understand and appreciate our High Priest today, one must understand the idea of the High Priest of the First Covenant people. It is clear that God appointed the First High Priest of the Jews – Aaron, a Levite – and His Son Jesus as the Last High Priest unto the brethren of God’s Family.

All about Jesus would I Know! #2

Neil Woodbury Hebrews 2: 1-18

The Letter to the “Hebrews” of the first century A.D. church is simply a revelation as to who Jesus of Nazareth truly was – is – and shall always be.

A look at chapter two keeps this theme going – in chapter one, Jesus is the Son of God and above all the heavenly host – indeed the angels also worship Him.

I. We must hear and believe those who heard Him (Jesus), those who believed Him first.

Read Hebrews 2: 1-4

II. Jesus, the author of our Salvation;

Read: Heb. 2: 5-13, Matt. 28: 18, John 17: 1-4

Five Points of Salvation: Man’s Terms or God’s Terms? #4 Neil Woodbury 1 Cor. 15: 1-2

Man’s Terms or God’s terms – but it cannot be both or either or! The bible teaches that we are saved through the Gospel – covered by the Blood of our Redeemer and Lord.

The Five Points

1. Total Depravity of Man 1. Hearing – Rom. 10: 14-15

2. Unconditional election of God 2. Believing – Mark 16: 16

3. Limited atonement of Christ 3. Repentance – 2 Cor. 7: 10

4. Irresistible grace of Deity 4. Confession – Rom. 10: 8-10

5. Perseverance of the saints 5. Being Baptized – Acts 22: 10-

16, Rom. 6: 3-4

Man’s Way (Calvinism);

Lead to confession and then fear of being lost.

God’s Way (Terms of Pardon);

No fear – only Hope based on Faith in God’s Promises
