Secret Church

God has a plan, and His plan cannot be stopped. Will the church align with her King's plan? If we resist, we miss the whole point of why we're here. The point is that God would be glorified in a community of people from every tribe, nation, and language. The church is the living representation of the kingdom of God on the earth today.

Jesus came to proclaim the kingdom of God as both a present reality and a future glory. Have you accepted this gift of the kingdom? As we submit to Christ's lordship in our lives, we submit to His sovereignty over all.

When Jesus came, what was His message? Central to His message was, "Repent." And by the way He lived, He demonstrated the power of the kingdom. The King has come, and He has conquered.

The whole Bible points to Jesus. So who was He? The fading shadow of the Kingdom of God in the Old Testament has been illuminated by the glorious revelation of Christ in the New Testament.

David Platt continues to teach through the New Testament with more of Paul's letters, specifically 1 Corinthians–2 Thessalonians.

The book of Romans—one of Paul's letters—gives us a clear explanation of the gospel and is key to us understanding the purpose for and message of the New Testament.

David Platt continues an overview of the New Testament by going book-by-book and helping set the context for who wrote these books, when they were written, and what significance each one plays in the overall story of the New Testament.

What books make up the New Testament? How was it compiled? While the New Testament was divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit, it is also both a literary and historical work. To understand the New Testament, it is important, also, to understand it in its literary and historical context.
