Defenders: Doctrine of Man (Part 25): A Continued Evaluation of Original Sin

Pastor Doug started a new series entitled, "Love Life." Over the next few weeks we will unpack what God's Word says about marriage, romance, sex and courtship. Here he starts off with an introduction of what a Godly man looks like.

The Interior Life – Maintenance of the Inner Man -- Part 8: The Body; Giving Life to the Spirit Soul MESSAGE SUMMARY: It is important to understand the Spirit in our inner beings. The Spirit is that part of us which enables us to commune with the Lord – it is that part of us in which the Holy Spirit indwells when we become a Christian and through which God speaks to us. Without Jesus, we are not fully alive because, without Jesus one has a dead Spirit. The Spirit, body and soul are all interconnected; and neglecting one adversely effects the other two. The Psalmist defines this interconnection in Psalms 63:1: “O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.". If our bodies are out of sorts, our Spirits and Souls can be adversely impacted. To optimize the effect of our bodies on our Souls and Spirits, we need to consider: 1) an eating plan that helps us live; 2) exercise so that we can be all that we can be for the Lord; 3) adequate sleep and rest; and 4) righteousness. Paul tells about God's perspective of our bodies in 1 Corinthians 6:19 20 “Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.". If we want to maintain our interior life, we must maintain our earth suits; this body that God has given us. Don't ignore the power of prayer to help in keeping our body, Soul, and Spirit interconnected and in positive rhythm. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24: “Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it."   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen.  Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM A CHILD OF GOD. Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His Name, He gave the right to become children of God-- children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. John 1:12f SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV):  Scripture Reference (ESV): Psalms 104:14; Psalms 145:15-16; 1 Corinthians 9:26; Psalms 127:2; Proverbs 20:13; Ecclesiastes 5:12; Romans 7:22-25; Proverbs 4:21; Proverbs 14:30; 1 Corinthians 6:13-20.

In Genesis 4, Cain's story is more than the first murder—it's a mirror reflecting the dangers of unchecked pride and self-centeredness. Cain the Narcissist refused to look inward when God confronted his heart, choosing resentment over repentance. His wounded ego birthed jealousy, and jealousy turned to violence. Then came Cain the Notorious—marked not only by his sin, but by his alienation from God and man. This passage reminds us that when worship becomes about self instead of surrender, sin crouches at the door, waiting to rule us. Yet even in judgment, God's mercy is seen—He marks Cain not for fame, but for grace.

There are six stages of manhood according to John Eldredge's "Fathered by God" - from boyhood through sage. Jory challenges modern views of masculinity, showing how Jesus was a warrior and why men need to be capable of violence under control.

I'm sure you've heard many criminal trials described as an “open and shut case”. It's often said in cases where the evidence is strong and convincing. That's really what we have in Romans chapter three. In a moment you'll hear the fourteen counts against man, man's defense, and the verdict. After all is said and done, we'll see the whole world lies guilty before God. But fear not! It's not all bad news! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/621/29

Defenders: Doctrine of Man (Part 24): Evaluating the Doctrine of Original Sin

Apart from Christ we're all sick and lost. We're in Romans, and in the first three chapters we discover mankind is guilty before a holy God.

The Interior Life – Maintenance of the Inner Man -- Part 7: A Listening Spirit MESSAGE SUMMARY: Paul, in 1 Thessalonians 5:23, describes the characteristics of the inner life and the maintenance of the inner man: “Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.". The Spirit is that part of us that communes with the Lord when we become a Christian. Without Jesus, we are not fully alive because, without Jesus one has a dead Spirit. It is by Grace that we are saved and then our faith in Jesus awakens our Spirit. We listen to and for the Lord with the Holy Spirit. God desires to speak to His people. God wants to speak to us and tell us about things in our lives like what His will is for us. However, we live in a noisy world; therefore, listening to and for the Lord is difficult. All the noise in the world and in our lives, has conditioned our Spirit to be dulled in listening to and for the Lord. Our Spirit is constantly under bombardment and distraction. As God spoke in Psalms 46:10: “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”. With the indwelling of the Holy Spirit as Christians, God will speak to us in a variety of ways: 1) through the still small voice; 2) as we study the Bible – the Lord's voice is both His spoken Word and in His written Word; 3) in our prayer, which is both talking and listening to God; 4) through teachings and sermons; 5) through our Christian friends; 6) through music; and 7) through the desires of our hearts, as the Psalmist tell us  in Psalms 37:4: “Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.".  However, be careful trusting the word from yourself if you are not in the Holy Spirit. We need to be to listen to and for the Lord. These are exercises, in our lives, that we can practice to tune our Listening Spirit to the Lord: 1) build times of silence in our lives; 2) practice solitude – being quit and alone with the Lord; 3) read and study His Word; 4) pray in intercessory prayer – talk to God in the behalf of others; 5) keep a prayer journal; and 6) obey God – when God speaks to us, He expects us to obey, as we find in Jeremiah 7:23: “But this command I gave them: ‘Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. And walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.'". If we don't obey the Lord, He will quit speaking to us: “What's the point?”.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him! (Luke 11:13).

In Genesis 3:8–24, we see the tragic fallout of sin. Adam protests his sin, blaming Eve and the serpent instead of taking responsibility. Adam receives punishment for his sin, facing toil, pain, and mortality as consequences of disobedience. Finally, Adam experiences prohibition because of his sin, being barred from the Garden of Eden and the tree of life. This passage reminds us that sin always separates, but God's pursuit of His creation points toward eventual redemption and restoration.

The Interior Life – Maintenance of the Inner Man -- Part 6: The Spirit MESSAGE SUMMARY: Introduction from Part 4 – We must take responsibility for our own emotions and stop blaming others. Emotions are the color of our inner life, but we must control our emotions, or our emotions will control us. Constantly remember God's presence is with us. What would happen if we really lived our lives knowing that God is always with us? Today's Message – It is important to understand the Spirit in our inner beings. The Spirit is that part of us which enables us to commune with the Lord – it is that part of us in which the Holy Spirit indwells when we become a Christian and through which God speaks to us. Paul, in 1 Thessalonians 5:23, describes the characteristics of the inner life and the maintenance of the inner man: “Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.". Without Jesus, we are not fully alive because, without Jesus one has a dead Spirit. It is by Grace that we are saved and that our faith in Jesus awakens our Spirit. In Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus tells us that we are to assist in awakening the Spirit in others – discipleship. We can nurture our Spirit through: 1) daily Bible reading; 2) daily prayer – talking to and listening to God; 3) Worship, both corporate and individual; 4) partaking of Holy Communion; 5) abiding, John 15:4 – “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.”; 6) obeying God; 7) fellowship with like-minded believers; and 8) witnessing and sharing Jesus with others.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you!

In this message Pastor John Schultz, Jr. discusses how sin tempts with attraction, deceives with artifice, and leaves a lasting aftermath of shame and brokenness. God's grace is the only thing that can cover what sin exposes.

One of FourIn my so-called career, I've known four geniuses: one evil, one chaos made flesh, and two nice; Dan is in the last group.There are many theories around what makes someone a genius; I define it as the ability to make connections where others cannot see them. Dan is professionally (at least in EPMland) best known for his deconstruction of ASO Essbase, understanding its architecture and fundamentals, and how to optimise it.If you were in his "Essbase ASO Performance:  When NOT to Depend on MDX" session at Kscope 2010, you know just what I'm talking aboutI was sort of slack jawed by the end of the presentation. How on earth did he figure this out? BSO Essbase's architecture was (and is) fully documented. Thank Arbor Software. The same was (and still is) not true for ASO Essbase. Thank (or don't) Hyperion Solutions.Dan took apart ASO Essbase, hypothesising, testing, rejecting, confirming, and simply intellectually beating the product halfway to death to mirror Codd's 12 rules for OLAP. His work revolutionized (and made my life considerably easier amongst many others) ASO Essbase theory and practice.If you weren't there and you practice Essbase, you probably have a copy of Developing Essbase Applications:  Advanced Techniques for Finance and IT Professionals.You can still (it came out in 2012!) buy it here on Amazon. One day Oracle will change the architecture behind ASO Essbase (maybe this has already happened – I'm out of that space now), but until then, and maybe even in future if they mimic the way ASO works/worked, Dan's chapter is the place to be.Listen to the podcast and hear how Dan did it and of course more back story of a fascinating man in an equally fascinating industry across time.Part 1 of 2In editing (and yes, I did it this time round and yes, I'm not very good at it as you'll hear glitches in the recording – sorry) an episode, there's always a temptation to cut content to fit an hour long format for brevity. However, EPM Conversations is about, well, conversations and if you were sitting in a coffee shop with Dan, you'd want to know a bit about his personal life – that's more in the second part although you'll get a good feel for him in this episode as well.Be seeing you.

Defenders: Doctrine of Man (Part 21): Evaluating the Nature of Sin

May businesses have a complaint button in their website, and the Better Business Bureau keeps pretty busy. Well today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley continues his verse by verse study in the Book of Acts. In chapter five, we see some complaining about the message being delivered by the Apostles. 

Defenders: Doctrine of Man (Part 20): The Fall of Man and the Nature of Sin

Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley will draw out some important lessons from the story of Ananias and his wife Sapphira. In Acts chapter five, Ananias And Sapphira sell some property just to get some accolades. What they receive is the judgment of God. It makes us wonder if they were really Christians at all. 

Romans 7:21-23 — Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones is fixated on helping his listeners understand the difficult teaching of the apostle Paul's in Romans 7:15-25. The spiritual identity of the man presented by Paul in Romans 7 is a most perplexing passage. In previous sermons, Dr. Lloyd-Jones has been methodically building his case on the man's spiritual identity. He is one who knows that the law is good. This man agrees with the law that he is a sinner. Now the man states that he delights in the law. As Dr. Lloyd-Jones argues, these things cannot be said of the unregenerate man. But does this mean that Romans 7 refers to the regenerate man as the Reformed tradition holds? Humbly, the Doctor demurs from men he holds in high estimation. Instead, being bound to the text of Scripture, Dr. Lloyd-Jones points out that while this man does indeed affirm the spiritual nature of the law, he also says there is a battle raging within. Moreover, the man in Romans 7 says he is brought into captivity. What do these elements mean for the spiritual identity of the man in Romans 7? Listen as Martyn Lloyd-Jones untangles and explains this most intriguing passage of Scripture.

Romans 7:16-20 — What is the spiritual identity of the man? Is he regenerate? Unregenerate? Or carnal? This has been the burning question Dr. Marytn Lloyd-Jones has been asking of Romans 7:15-25. After having carefully worked through several verses already, in this message Dr. Lloyd-Jones continues to aid his listeners through this difficult passage. Looking at the larger context of Romans, Dr. Lloyd-Jones reminds us that Paul is not merely telling us about his personal experience in Romans 7. Instead, Paul is defending his view of the law. As the apostle is neither denouncing the law nor attributing the responsibility for sin to the law, the question remains: how does sin come to pass then? In answering this question, the apostle Paul makes one of the most daring statements in all the Bible. Paul asserts that sin dwells in me! In other words, sin takes up residence in each person. As such, says Dr. Lloyd-Jones, we must realize that sin is not just outside but is part of our very nature. Listen as he explains the power of sin, the dual nature of man, and how this all connects to finding out the spiritual identity of the man in Romans 7.

As the apostle is neither denouncing the law nor attributing the responsibility for sin to the law, the question remains: how does sin come to pass then? In answering this question, the apostle Paul makes one of the most daring statements in all the Bible. Paul asserts that sin dwells in me! In other words, sin takes up residence in each person. As such, says Dr. Lloyd-Jones, we must realize that sin is not just outside but is part of our very nature. Listen as he explains the power of sin, the dual nature of man, and how this all connects to finding out the spiritual identity of the man in Romans 7.

Romans 7:14-15 — The spiritual identity of the man in Romans 7:14-25 is the driving question interpreters face as they approach one of Scriptures most perplexing passages. After providing an introduction to the passage in the previous message, Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones begins to parse out in greater detail his own view of Romans 7:14-25 in this sermon. With pastoral sensitivity Dr. Lloyd-Jones maintains humility when expounding the passage, noting how truly difficult the section of Scripture is. He encourages his audience to not give up on difficult texts. He argues that Paul's defense of the law remains the key contextual detail one must keep in mind. In this sermon Dr. Lloyd-Jones has his keen exegetical eye set on the phrase “sold under sin.” Of whom is such a statement true? Is this a description of an unregenerate man? Dr. Lloyd-Jones argues that it cannot be so due to the fact that an unregenerate man does not affirm that he has such a condition. Is this a description of a regenerate man? Lloyd-Jones says that it cannot be since such a view contradicts Paul's description of a regenerate man elsewhere in Romans. What is the solution then? Listen to this fascinating sermon by Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones as he works through this complex and complicated passage in Paul's most famous letter

From the beginning of time, God designed mankind to rule with dominion, create with purpose, and speak with authority. Our ability to work, imagine, and build reflects the nature of the Creator Himself. As Genesis 1:27 declares, we are created in God's image—male and female. This foundational truth shapes our identity and purpose. Yet sin and deception continue to distort that image, leading culture to reject God's divine order—including His design of male and female.In part two of "The Image of God in Man," Duane Sheriff teaches how God placed His divine image within humanity—through our gender, His blueprint for marriage, and our role as image-bearers. This is what makes us uniquely human and distinct from all creation. Through Christ, the image of God is restored and celebrated in righteousness. As image bearers, we reflect His nature through truth, creativity, speech, and work.

What does it mean to be made in the image of God? More than mere creations, we are bearers of the Divine image. This identity is intrinsic to our being—shaping how we live, love, and relate to others.In "The Image of God in Man," Duane Sheriff reveals the sacred design of humanity and how our true identity is rooted in reflecting God's likeness. From the very beginning, mankind was created to reveal God's character, rule with dominion, and manifest His nature on the earth.Yet sin and deception have fractured that image, distorting how we see ourselves and others. Through Jesus Christ, however, God's image is restored in us, bringing honor, purpose, and truth back into our lives and culture. We can either celebrate His likeness in righteousness—or distort it through sin.
