Back To The Bible Canada With Dr. John Neufeld

Jesus has caused a stir in Jeruslem. He entered the city as messiah and the crowds praised Him. He threw over tables in the temple and cast out buyers and sellers.

He has the rights to rule and to command us to repent.The Beginning of Jesus' Passion: "Passion" is defined as a compelling emotion or feeling.

Listen as Dr. John shows Jesus claiming the temple as His House of prayer and chasing the corruption out. But this was not merely a cleansing. Matthew writes of Jesus cursing the fig tree, a prophetic voice speaking of God's judgement upon the temple.The Beginning of Jesus' Passion: "Passion" is defined as a compelling emotion or feeling.

When you imagine the entrance of a great warior, you might picture him in a chariot or riding a stallion. What we wouldn't do is imagine Him on a donkey. A donkey doesn't communicate the power and majesty we expect. But that is what Jesus did. He purposely rides into Jerusalem on a foal. Listen as Dr. John shows Jesus purposely fulfilling Old Testament prophecy. Jesus was declaring Himself publicly to be the Messiah. At the time of Passover, to the crowds of the city, Jesus shows who He is.The Beginning of Jesus' Passion: "Passion" is defined as a compelling emotion or feeling.

Satan is a defeated villian. Whatever power or influence he holds has an expiry date. In this final message on spiritual warfare, Dr. John lays out the four stages of the Devil's defeat.

We can make too much of the Devil. By doing so, we inflate Satan and can be wrapped in fear and worry.

Any discussion of the spirit world has to account for angels. In our culture, they are reduced to harmless chubby-cheeked cherubs which hang on Christmas trees. The Bible presents a different picture. In this second message, Dr. John focuses on the nature of angels. What are they and where do they come from? Set the childhood images aside and consider what powerful creatures God has made them to be. The Invisible War: We live in a world with both physical and spiritual realities.

At times we are cautioned not to burn any bridges behind us. It is thought to be wisdom to leave a back door option for returning. Dr. John points to Israel at the Red Sea and teaches that the crossing was like a burning bridge. God was closing any option for Israel to return to Egypt. The way of faith is forward. We must not use fear as a reason to return to what was. In His mercy, God may burn our bridges behind us. God's Rescue Plan: We tend to think of deliverance as a rescue from something - a fire, an accident, a trap. In this 25-message series from Exodus, Dr. John will show that God’s rescue of Israel is not just from slavery, but to a covenant. Deliverance and promise are the themes of Exodus and the themes of our own redemption.

Trust is not our default position. There has been much in life to teach us suspicion and cynicism. God calls us to abandon our self-protective ways and trust Him. Dr. John demonstrates the faithfulness of our God. The pattern of His power and provision for our lives becomes the platform on which faith stands. We may waiver and disappoint, but God never does.God's Rescue Plan: We tend to think of deliverance as a rescue from something - a fire, an accident, a trap.

"The just shall live by faith!" Faith is not only the gate to redemption, it is the path of redemption as well. Dr. John teaches from Exodus 13 and demonstrates how God both requires and grows trust within Israel. God led them away from battles because they were not ready. God commanded generosity to develop trust along the way. We can all be encouraged that God not only commands faith from us, but nurtures it within us. God's Rescue Plan: We tend to think of deliverance as a rescue from something - a fire, an accident, a trap.

A life of faith requires memory. What is and what will be, is shaped by what has been. The Passover meal was commanded with specific instructions. It was to be held in the same way, at the same time, every year. The meal became a means of instruction for families throughout generations. Listen as Dr. John points to our need to remember.

There are scenes in life too terrible to imagine. We hear of a tragedy and struggle to conceive of the pain and loss. As Dr. John walks us through Exodus, we come to such a scene. The 10th plague is the death of every firstborn in Egypt. Only those households covered by the passover blood are protected. Can there be any worse death imaginable? Dr. John points us to the sacrifice of Jesus; the Firstborn of God; the Passover lamb for us all. Out of death, God brings redemption and life everlasting.God's Rescue Plan: We tend to think of deliverance as a rescue from something - a fire, an accident, a trap.

The Exodus is the central event in Jewish faith and Old Testament narrative. It is the account of judgement, deliverance and shed blood. In this message, Dr. John demonstrates that this 10th plague foreshadows the central event in Christian faith and the Biblical narrative. Jesus Christ is the Passover Lamb for all. His life and death speak of judgement, deliverance and shed blood. Both events prove that we cannot rescue ourselves. We are redeemed by faith in the merciful acts of God. God's Rescue Plan: We tend to think of deliverance as a rescue from something - a fire, an accident, a trap.
