What could be more urgent than knowing, with certainty, where you’re headed after you die? Fact is, there’s only one way to know. John MacArthur’s new study, Who Is Jesus, Anyway? shows you exactly what the Bible says about how you can be sure of your eternal destiny. As John explains the good news about Jesus Christ and what He accomplished, you’ll also hear a powerful example of how to communicate that message to others. Believing the truth about Jesus really is a matter of life and death.
Philippians 02:06 .. who .. although he existed in the form of God .. did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped 02:07 .. but emptied himself .. taking the form of a bond-servant .. and being made in the likeness of men 02:08 .. being found in appearance as a man .. he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death .. even death on a cross 02:09 .. for this reason also .. God highly exalted him .. and estowed on him the name which is above every name 02:10 .. so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow .. of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth 02:11 .. and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord .. to the glory of God the Father
Colossians 02:08 .. see to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception .. according to the tradition of men .. ......... according to the elementary principles of the world .. rather than according to Christ 02:09 .. for in him all the fullness of deity dwells in bodily form 02:10 .. and in him you have been made complete .. and he is the head over all rule and authority 02:11 .. and in him you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without hands .. ......... in the removal of the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ 02:12 .. having been buried with him in baptism .. in which you were also raised up with him through faith in the working of God .. ......... who raised him from the dead 02:13 .. when you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh .. he made you alive together with him .. ......... having forgiven us all our transgressions 02:14 .. having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us .. which was hostile to us .. and he has taken it out of the way .. ......... having nailed it to the cross 02:15 .. when he had disarmed the rulers and authorities .. he made a public display of them .. having triumphed over them through him 02:16 .. therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day 02:17 .. things which are a mere shadow of what is to come .. but the substance belongs to Christ 02:18 .. let no one keep defrauding you of your prize by delighting in self-abasement and the worship of the angels .. ......... taking his stand on visions he has seen .. inflated without cause by his fleshly mind 02:19 .. and not holding fast to the head .. from whom the entire body .. being supplied and held together by the joints and ligaments .. ......... grows with a growth which is from God 02:20 .. If you have died with Christ to the elementary principles of the world .. why .. as if you were living in the world .. ......... do you submit yourself to decrees .. such as 02:21 .. ho not handle .. do not taste .. do not touch 02:22 .. (which all refer to things destined to perish with use) .. in accordance with the commandments and teachings of men 02:23 .. these are matters which have .. to be sure .. the appearance of wisdom in self-made religion and self-abasement and severe treatment of the body .. ......... but are of no value against fleshly indulgence
Matthew 28:11 .. now while they were on their way .. some of the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened 28:12 .. and when they had assembled with the elders and consulted together .. they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers 28:13 .. and said .. you are to say .. his disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep
