Bible Seminar
From life
to eternity,
the answers are in the Bible.
Bible seminar
The gospel refers to the fact of humanity’s salvation through Jesus Christ. A Bible seminar is a seminar that shares this gospel message.
It is primarily composed of seven sermons. These sermons summarize and explain that the Bible is true and how God saved us from sin through Jesus Christ.
The seminar covers topics such as history in the Bible and world history, wisdom in the Bible and modern science, prophecies in the Bible and their relevance to the present and future.
By attending the Bible lecture, you will come to understand that the Bible is the word of God and gain a deeper understanding of the true meaning of salvation through Christ.
The greatest problem in life
"But God said to him, 'Fool! This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will those things be which you have provided? So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."_ Luke 12:20~21
Throughout a person’s life, there are countless things to learn and accomplish. However, among them, there are a few absolute issues that must be understood and resolved. Yet, we must acknowledge that we still do not fully grasp the answers to these essential questions. What a person knows and how they understand it can determine their future destiny, and in some cases, it may even be directly connected to their very life.
Two Gears: History and the Bible
“Remember the former things of old, For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me.”_ Isaiah 46:9
Only the Absolute and Almighty One, who dwells in the eternal realm and is not bound by time or space, can declare the great events of human history exactly as they are. If the God of the Bible is the One who initiated history and is fulfilling His plans and purposes through it, then He must have complete knowledge of all human history.
Israel: God’s Witness
"You are My witnesses," says the LORD, “And My servant whom I have chosen, That you may know and believe Me, And understand that I am He. Before Me there was no God formed, Nor shall there be after Me.”_ Isaiah 43:10
As God’s chosen people, Israel was set apart to testify about Him, making them a nation with unique characteristics. The distinctiveness of the Jewish people can be summarized as follows: a nation with a miraculous history of rise and fall, a people of extraordinary talent, a group holding a dominant position in the global economy, and a nation at the center of Middle Eastern and global conflicts. Even today, Israel continues to exist as a witness to God.
What Will Happen at the End of Human History
Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”_Matthew 24:3
From the very beginning of creation, God predetermined the timeline of history. Therefore, once His divine plans and purposes are fulfilled, human history must inevitably come to an end. At the climax of history, Jesus Christ will return. The day of His second coming will also mark the conclusion of the grace of salvation that has been given to mankind.
Human Sin and Its Consequences
“And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment.”_Hebrews 9:27
God said to Adam, “For dust you are, And to dust you shall return.” (Genesis 3:19). This was a declaration of physical death for all who became sinners in Adam. However, as stated in Ecclesiastes 12:7, “Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it.” Death is not the end; after death comes judgment. Each of us will one day stand before God and face His judgment.
Eternal Atonement, Perfect Salvation
“Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption.”_Hebrews 9:12
The blood of Jesus not only cleansed the sins of those who lived before His coming but also washed away the sins of those who will be born until the very end of human history. From the first man, Adam, to the last person ever born, Jesus Christ has accomplished eternal atonement for the sins of all mankind through His precious blood.
God’s Love Revealed in the Gospel
“For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus： that if One died for all, then all died.”_2 Corinthians 5:14
Since all people became sinners in Adam through his disobedience, the righteous One, Jesus Christ, bore the penalty of sin by dying in place of all. God’s holy and only begotten Son died for a sinner like me. If Jesus had not paid the price for my sins, nothing would remain for me except eternal curse and destruction.
