Back To The Bible Canada With Dr. John Neufeld

Many Christians live under a cloud of guilt, constantly wondering if God is angry with them for their latest failure. Dr. John Neufeld explains justification as God's legal declaration of "not guilty" based on Christ's finished work. He reveals three liberating benefits: complete freedom from condemnation and guilt, release from trying to earn God's favour through religious performance, and the end of spiritual pride since justification comes entirely as God's unmerited gift.Making the Most of Your Salvation: In a world of endless technology, the opportunity for learning, communicating, and creating is at an all-time high.

Before salvation, we were spiritually dead - incapable of responding to God despite all our religious efforts. Dr. John Neufeld explains regeneration as God's "heart transplant" that makes us spiritually alive. Using Acts 16:14, he shows how God creates a new nature within believers that produces five remarkable abilities: an inability to continue in sin, Christ-like love, power to overcome worldly pressures, protection from Satan, and genuine spiritual hunger.Making the Most of Your Salvation: In a world of endless technology, the opportunity for learning, communicating, and creating is at an all-time high.

How can you be certain you're going to heaven? Dr. John Neufeld tackles this eternal question through the doctrine of imputation - the "great exchange" at the heart of salvation. Using 2 Corinthians 5:21, he explains three crucial truths: we're born with Adam's sin charged to our account, Christ took our sin upon himself at the cross, and his perfect righteousness is credited to us through faith alone. Understanding this transforms anxious believers into confident children of God.Making the Most of Your Salvation: In a world of endless technology, the opportunity for learning, communicating, and creating is at an all-time high.

Many Christians live like someone who owns a smartphone but only uses it to make calls - missing powerful features at their fingertips.

Rather than investing in temporary earthly pursuits, Christians should offer continual praise to God and share generously with others, recognizing that only eternal things truly matter.The Jesus Effect: Faith in Jesus ought to make a difference in our lives.

Dr. John explores Hebrews 12:18-24 and "The Better Gospel," contrasting the frightening revelation at Mount Sinai with the celebratory gathering at heavenly Mount Zion.

An invitation to a free banquet sounds like a good opportunity. But before we tuck in our napkins, we should know who the host is and what it is they offer. Not every free meal is a blessing. Dr. John concludes his series of "Wisdom Matters" with the portrayal of two banquets - one hosted by Wisdom and the other by Folly.

There are countless messages clamouring for your attention. Voices invite you to know, buy, do, attend, give, prevent or avoid. Dr. John reminds us that there is one Voice above them all.

Dr. John offers four insights from Proverbs 7 which enable us to stand against the tide of sexual temptation. Wisdom is not simply being aware of the dangers, but knowing how to resist.Wisdom Matters: Is it better to be wealthy, good looking, successful, popular or wise?

An old adage says, "If you think education is expensive, you should try ignorance!" There is a price to be paid for wisdom, but the price of foolishness is far greater. Dr. John calls us to resist the fallicy that sexual sin has no consequence. The price of failure scars our soul, and our family.

We make choices everyday - from the mundane to the life changing. In every decision, we need wisdom. As Dr. John speaks from Proverbs 6, he explains how practical wisdom can guide the choices we make about our debts, work habits, friendships, and especially our moral walk.

Proverbs demonstrates that the content of wisdom must speak to sexual matters as well. Every parent who has "the talk" with their children, can't simply speak of biology. There is a moral education needed as well. Dr. John highlights the cousel of Solomon to his son about sexuality. The power of human sexuality cannot be denied; it must be directed. God has wisdom that grants both life and healing.Wisdom Matters: Is it better to be wealthy, good looking, successful, popular or wise?
