#23 - Eden Restored (Part IV - FAST FORWARD)
Monday Jun 29, 2020
Monday Jun 29, 2020
In the beginning, we read in Genesis about the creation of the heavens and the earth and how God planted man in the Garden of Eden; a perfect paradise created for man to have dominion over throughout his life. But we all know the story of Adam and Eve and the temptation from the serpent to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil - an act that God forbade, which banished them from the garden. And ever since then, man has suffered from the darkness of sin, and we have all have since been banished due to our iniquity. But it is God's desire to restore us to the Garden of Eden, and this time it will be better because we will not face temptation and sin in our future glorious home. In this episode, we discuss Eden Restored and outline what God has planned to restore us to his original master plan.
As we end Part III of our Past, Present, and Future series, we are focusing on the Future in this season titled Fast Forward. In this season, we are looking forward in our walk with Christ and the spiritual realm.Â

#20 - Heaven and Hell, Pt1 (Part I - FAST FORWARD)
Wednesday Jun 10, 2020
Wednesday Jun 10, 2020
As we start Part III of our Past, Present, and Future series, we are focusing on the Future in this season titled Fast Forward. In this season, we are looking forward in our walk with Christ and the spiritual realm. We are starting by discussing the reality of Heaven and Hell. There is a lot of content to cover in regards to these two places, so this episode will be split into two parts.Â
In this episode, we are focusing on the reality of Hell, and in the next episode we will focus on the glory of what is to come for believers in Heaven. This episode is a little heavier than previous episodes, but it is important to discuss all aspects of what the future holds for both believers and non-believers. I hope you find some encouragement in this episode that Hell was not meant for us, and that we do not have to go there so long as we accept Christ in our life, and live according to the Word of God. Â
