Understanding Christianity

We have a non-negotiable obligation to consistently and sacrificially love one another.

Authentic believers glorify God by constantly abiding in Christ. Jesus gives us three ways to do this: (1) Abide in prayer, (2) Abide in HIs love and (3) Abide in His Word through obedience.

Dr. Sean Cole shows from John 15:1-6 that continual dependence upon Jesus is absolutely essential for spiritual fruitfulness. Jesus contrasts two types of people: (1) God will sovereignly prune true believers in order for them to bear fruit, and (2) God will sovereignly judge false professors on that final day.

Dr. Sean Cole provides a critical review of six major areas in Dr. David Allen's new book refuting limited atonement entitled "The Extent of the Atonement." In general, Dr. Allen denies unconditional election and the golden chain of redemption in Romans 9. The major weakness of the book is that he does not provide any positive and extended exegesis of his own of key texts on the atonement.

Jesus promises us three distinct blessings that will supply us with everything we need for true life in Him. (1) The Holy Spirit-inspired Word of God (2) His powerful peace that passes understanding, and (3) confidence in His sovereignty over Satan.

How do you know you're truly saved?Many Christians struggle with assurance of their salvation. They often wonder if God loves them less when they are struggling with sin and that He must love them more when they are living the “victorious Christian life.” Evangelicalism has been plagued by an overwhelming confusion between justification and sanctification as the ground of our assurance, position, and acceptance in Christ. Dr. Sean Cole provides some encouragement for the struggling Christian by examining Romans 5:1-4 to help answer this question.

Dr. Sean Cole teaches on the first Chapter of Malachi which emphasizes the importance of giving God the proper worship due His name.

Dr. Sean Cole preaches from John 14:18-24 and gives five wonderful realities of what it means to have true life in Christ. These truths help us to understand (1) that you don't ever have to fear being lonely or abandoned, (2) every thing you need for life and godliness is available to you in Christ, and (3) the more you grow in obedient love the more you will see the glories of Christ.

Dr. Sean Cole teaches the entire book of Jude which focuses on contending for the faith in light of false teachers and apostasy.
