“ God Will Make Man in His Image ” The God of Genesis 1 stated as a Fact as if it were already True: "Let Us make Man in OUR Image, In the Image of God (Christ) created He Him. Man and woman created He them" (KJV). " It was as good as DONE before the world existed (for there was no man to tend the land , but when he did come into being he is but Dust, the natural man). Will He not do what He stated? "My Word will not return to Me empty. See the stars in the sky? Not a one of them is missing. So too, none that he has Foreknown before the Foundation of the world will by no means be left forgotten!" ...on that Day We whom He has KNOWN will be Changed, conformed to The Image of His Son Who is the Image of God as ONE, 'just as I and the Father are One!" His own (those Known by Him) will not be creatures of mere dust but Glorious as He is. It's a PROMISE and Truth cannot Lie. Christ in you, THEE Hope of Glory. His own will exchange this loathsome body for His Glorious Body and the perishable for the imperishable.
“ Helpful ” A helpful sermon from a post-millennialist that explains Daniel's 70 weeks from Daniel 9:24-27, serving as an alternative to Dispensational teaching on this passage
“ Great corrective. ” This is a very useful corrective of much wrong Christian living. Christian living needs a healthy mind, but a healthy and warm heart as well. I am much thankful for this message today.
“ When God Is Silent ” This is from over fifty years ago but is more true today that ever in the past. A very bold and blunt message about the point of no return.
“ A Christian culture ” Prof. Francis Nigel Lee explains that Jesus Christ saves the whole man, not just the soul. Christians should not be satisfied with merely preaching the whole counsel of God. In addition, they must also practice the whole counsel of God. Christ is Lord of all the universe. The culturally-minded Christian is called by God to develop a Christian art, a Christian literature, a Christian philosophy, a Christian educational system, Christian business methods, in fact, a Christian culture.
“ The Christian cultural task ” Prof. Francis Nigel Lee explains that Christians are to see it as their destiny to live to God's glory in every field of endeavor here and now, until Jesus comes. Furthermore, Revelation 14:13 assures us that all our earthly labors in the Lord here and now have significance for the next life too, and follow us onto the new Earth.
“ Sin, sorrow and suffering ” Prof. Francis Nigel Lee forcefully explains that the plight of man is sin. It took root amongst mankind in the garden of Eden, and it has spread through to every part of man's existence. The consequences of sin are immediate spiritual death, alienation, guilt, corruption, suffering, and depravity. The ultimate consequences are physical death, torment of the soul in hell, and everlasting suffering in the lake of fire.
“ Essential unity between body and soul ” As Prof. Francis Nigel Lee teaches, the idea that the body of man is relatively worthless, but that the soul as such is all-important, is Platonic, not Scriptural. Dooyeweerd's idea of the "radical unity" of man is more correct than the trichotomist and dichotomist view of man. Yet even the Dooyeweerdians are obliged to distinguish between what they correctly call "our outward man" (the body) and "the inward man" (the heart) (2 Corinthians 4:16).
