The Holy Spirit

Michael teaches an overview of the book of Acts. Often referred to as The Acts of The Apostles, but perhaps more aptly titled: The Acts of The Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit leads, guides, teaches, and instructs. But that instruction had better have the Word of God behind it and not just your or my experience. Our experiences must be weighted and measured by Scripture and wisdom.

The first of three teachings on the person and work of the Holy Spirit.

Our culture has become increasingly opposed to black-and-white ideas, particularly in the area of theology. To hold firm convictions as a Christian is often difficult. Learn more about the controversial Doctrine of the Holy Spirit and the ways some academic approaches challenge our beliefs in Episode 11 of Why We Believe What We Believe.

When we think about this doctrine of the Trinity – that there’s three persons in one Godhead, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – even for academics and Theologians, it’s a mind bending subject. It’s complicated. Yet, Scripture has a lot to offer about the relationship not only within the Trinity, but as human beings relate to God. Interestingly, apart from a Trinitarian Godhead, no one could be saved. In other words, if we don’t understand the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the role of those three persons; we don’t understand how a human being could be saved.

It’s interesting when faith finds its way into the Media. We have bylines and idioms that we use to talk about “Christianity” very broadly. There are so many groups that call themselves “Christian” that it begs the question: What is a true believer? In today’s episode Michael teaches about the Doctrine of the Trinity using supporting texts from Deuteronomy and Matthew.

In this episode Dr. E answers questions about polygamy, church membership, the voice of church leaders in regards to pro-life issues, blaspheming the Holy Spirit, and funeral attendance.

Spiritual gifts, assisted suicide, changing the sabbath day, judgement day for Believers, and tattoos. You asked. Dr. E answered.
