Message #95 - ECCLESIOLOGY - The Doctrine of the New Testament Church (Part 1)

The Establishment of the Church [Part A - It’s Origin & Founding: The Development & Establishment o

January 14, 2024 • Pastor Mark Geer • Matthew 16:18

Today we pick up our Systematic Theology Series once again as we begin a new study of Ecclesiology ~ the study of the Doctrine of the New Testament Church. 

 

Pastor Mark Geer introduces the topic today with an exploration of the importance of teaching on this doctrine of the Establishment of the New Testament Church and the historical development of the concept of the Church both prophetically and historically. We explore God’s work and redemptive plan that began in the Old Testament and culminated in the New Testament. 

 

Pastor Mark also discussed the origin or birthday of the church on the Day of Pentecost and the value of understanding the meaning of the word “Church” (ekklesia) and how we can more fully appreciate, identify with, and find our place in the Body of Christ. 

 

Our desire for this broader study of Systematic Theology for Daily Living is to take a practical look at the study of God and various elements of biblical and spiritual truth which are designed to help us all understand God and draw us nearer to Him as our Creator and to Jesus Christ as our Savior.


Message #106 - ECCLESIOLOGY - The Doctrine of the New Testament Church (Part 12)

April 28, 2024 • Pastor Mark Geer • Revelation 1:6, Mark 16:15, Matthew 24:4–14, 1 Timothy 4:1–3, Revelation 20:4–6

Today we pick up our Systematic Theology Series once again and continue our study of the topic of Ecclesiology ~ the study of the New Testament Church.   Pastor Mark Geer continues our examination of the purpose of the church with a look at “It’s Destiny” ~ how in spite of our greatest evangelistic efforts, the church will not convert the world. There will always be, according to Scripture, a large portion of humanity who will reject the gospel and Jesus as their Lord and Savior. It’s heartbreaking, but true. It rattles our emotions, invigorates our spirits, spurs us on to greater evangelism, and motivates us for a passionate pursuit of sharing the gospel to the ends of the earth! And this is good, right and noble. It is obedience to our calling. But in the end, the truth remains, the Church will not convert the entire world.   Nevertheless, the Church will occupy a place of blessing and honor in the world to come. God has great plans for His Bride and has prepared a wonderful destiny and future for those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. May this message motivate you for daily service in the work of the kingdom. Do not lose heart! And look to your destiny as a child of God and a part of the Church of Jesus.   Our desire for this broader study of Systematic Theology for Daily Living is to take a practical look at the study of God and various elements of biblical and spiritual truth which are designed to help us all understand God and draw us nearer to Him as our Creator and to Jesus Christ as our Savior.

April 21, 2024 • Pastor Mark Geer • John 18:10–37, Matthew 16:13–19, Matthew 18:15–18, Luke 22:35–53, Romans 13:1–7

Today we pick up our Systematic Theology Series once again and continue our study of the topic of Ecclesiology ~ the study of the New Testament Church.   Pastor Mark Geer continues our examination of the purpose of the church with a look at “It’s Power” promised by Jesus to engage in spiritual warfare, proclaim the good news message of the gospel, and to walk in the power of His Holy Spirit.   Today’s message specifically focuses on what Jesus meant by “The Keys to the Kingdom” and also how the Church is to respond to the power of the State and Government in our daily lives.   Our desire for this broader study of Systematic Theology for Daily Living is to take a practical look at the study of God and various elements of biblical and spiritual truth which are designed to help us all understand God and draw us nearer to Him as our Creator and to Jesus Christ as our Savior.
