On the Holy Mountain (Life of Christ Sermon 31)

After Peter’s great confession, Jesus shocked the disciples by plainly stating He must go to Jerusalem and be put to death.  How could this be?  Wasn’t He the Son of the Living God?  A week passed, and Jesus ascended a high mountain with Peter, James, and John to pray.  There, one of the greatest events in world history would transpire – Jesus would be transfigured before the three disciples, and they would see His divine, glorified nature.  In this lesson from the Life of Christ series, Nate Bibens discusses this great event and why it was such an important occasion.

The Church in Prophecy (Episode 19)

There are those in modern day Christianity who teach the Church was a stop-gap measure put in place when Jesus was unexpectedly rejected by the Jewish people. But if that is they case, then why do the Old Testament prophets speak prophetically of the church?
