Back to the Bible Canada with Dr. John Neufeld

Many people think of heaven simply as an extension of earth, only better! Today Dr. John speaks of heaven and earth as a new work of God.  There will be a new earth, transformed from the old. Heaven will no longer be distant but descended upon earth. The lives of God's people will be filled with unending love, joy, creativity, peace, and worship for the One who has done it all.Heaven: Everyone wants to know what happens at the end of life and beyond. There are fanciful descriptions, hopeful expectations and wild imaginations. Better to listen to God, who dwells in eternity and knows. Listen to Dr. John’s 10-message series on “Heaven.” You will find that, while God doesn’t answer every one of our curious questions, He speaks truth to grant us salvation and hope.

Once we really understand how much better it is to be in God’s presence when we die, it can transform our outlook on life here on earth.Heaven: Everyone wants to know what happens at the end of life and beyond.

Dr. John Neufeld provides a firm biblical foundation for how Christians should rightly understand the subject of Heaven and death.Heaven: Everyone wants to know what happens at the end of life and beyond.

It is easy, too easy, to focus on those opposed to us. We are prone to devising tactics against them. Today we hear Jesus say that there are not as many enemies as we imagine, and those that truly are enemies do not require our vengeance. What is required is to follow Jesus in absolute surrender - even if it means a cross.Jesus, Unexpected Encounters: We think we know people. We put them into boxes of our expectations and then treat them accordingly. Jesus is different. He responded not to stereotypes, but to people. He reached out to those who were on the periphery of cultural acceptance. In this series from Luke 7-9, Dr. John will show how Jesus dispensed with cultural walls. He came to save sinners regardless of who they were. That includes us.

We all want to succeed. We want our lives to matter, to make a difference, even to glorify God. But our hopes for success can morph into a need to succeed. We can become competitive and vain. Repeatedly Jesus teaches the 12 about humility. In today's passage Dr. John points to the limitations of the disciples and shows Jesus turning to a child as the example for our souls. Jesus, Unexpected Encounters: We think we know people.

Have you ever looked at someone you knew and saw them in a new light? Perhaps you see your son/daughter, no longer as a child, but a parent caring for their own children. Maybe your spouse is publicly honoured for a significant achievement. In these situations, your understanding grows of the one you know. Dr. John walks us through the transfiguration of Jesus. The disciples saw Jesus in a new light. They saw Him as He was, is and always will be - the glorious Son of God. Jesus, Unexpected Encounters: We think we know people.

Anyone who follows Jesus learns quickly that the path is not smooth. The experience of discipleship is more than hard, it is a self-sacrifice. Dr. John reminds and repeats Jesus' call to pick up our cross. Whatever is forfeited can't be compared to what is gained.Jesus, Unexpected Encounters: We think we know people.
