Eternal life is found in Christ ALONE. This statement may sound straightforward. It’s not earth-shattering! However, we live in a confusing world that claims that all paths lead to God. We live in a culture where all beliefs are equal, and Christianity is pushed to the outside fringes. We are called narrow-minded or bigoted or even hateful if we dare say that Jesus is the ONLY way of salvation

The purpose of this paragraph is to give us certainty from God Himself that we have faith in Christ.What has God Himself done to help us know for certain that eternal life is only found in Christ Jesus?He has given us THREE witnesses who agree with one another as evidence.

Listen as Dr. Sean Cole preaches this perplexing passage of Scripture.

In Ephesians 1:15-23, Paul prays that we would fully grasp the implications of all these blessings by knowing God in a deeper, more intimate way.

Are you satisfied with a casual, distant, dry relationship with God, or do you desire a vibrant, rich, intimate relationship with the Father where you grow in your faith and know Him more deeply?

May the Holy Spirit grant us the grace to have our eyes opened and our hearts enflamed to know the Father more deeply through the power of His Son.

 In 1 John 4:13-21, Dr. Sean Cole explains FIVE wonderful truths about the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

 He is indispensable to our lives. In other words, we cannot live without the Holy Spirit! What is the role of the Holy Spirit? While we may know much about God the Father and Jesus the Son, sometimes the Person and work of the Holy Spirit are either neglected or assumed. We will see how the Holy Spirit works in us from before we were saved to when Christ returns.

Dr. Sean Cole teaches expositionally through the book of Ephesians. In 1:1-6, Paul introduces us to the Trinitarian structure of Father, Son, and Spirit. First, the Father blesses us with sovereign election, predestination, and adoption. This choosing took place before the foundation of the world, and there were no conditions sinners had to meet for God to elect them--namely, faith. God chose us based upon the good pleasure of His will, not on foreseen faith. Sean interacts with the Arminian and Corporate views of election as he affirms that this passage teaches the unconditional election view.

What is discernment? How do you overcome false teaching?

Dr. Sean Cole continues preaching through the book of 1 John. In Chapter 4:1-6, the main point is that we need both the Word and Spirit to discern truth from error. He explores this text in three ways: (1) The danger of false teaching, (2) The heresy itself, (3) The need to test the spirits with spiritual discernment.

Luke records an episode in Jesus’ life in which we see him as a 12-year-old boy. As we enter 2025, we see three things about Jesus that we should emulate in our lives.

First, Jesus was passionate about the Scriptures.

Second, Jesus was obligated to do His Father’s will.

Third, Jesus was submissive to His earthly parents.

Dr. Sean Cole concludes the teaching from the 1689 Second London Baptist Confession focusing on Chapter 31: The State of Humanity after Death and the Resurrection of the Dead and Chapter 32: The Last Judgment.

He addresses the intermediate state, including false views such as soul sleep, annihilationism, and purgatory. He also teaches on the rapture/resurrection of the dead, the last judgment, and the final states of heaven and hell.
