This is the seventh installment of Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from the Time of Nero. In this episode he addresses the hard-to-understand style of prophetic and apocalyptic writings in Scripture. Why did God give us these strange and challenging books, and how, as the Body of Christ, are we supposed to approach them? Because, for many, these pieces of divine communication are as clear as mud. 

Jesus IS our salvation! This is so profound that “good” news makes it sound paltry. The superlative reality is that Christ Himself has saved us from the domain of darkness and transferred us into His own kingdom. In this study we talk about Jesus being our salvation in the past, present, and future tenses.

This is the sixth installment in Eric’s Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from the Times of Nero. In this episode he demonstrates throughout the Biblical record (and even in the history of the Jews unrecorded in the Biblical record) a clear pattern of God’s divine purposefulness in allowing weakness in the men and nations He favors. And He does this in order to showcase His strength in and through that very weakness. With a Gideon-esque intentionality, He often will shrink down our earthly forces before He marshals His heavenly ones to fight on our behalf. And in so doing, He never fails to bring beauty out of ash. 

This is the fifth installment in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from the Time of Nero.

The good news is even greater news when seen in light of the bad news. Without knowing the sinful condition we are in apart from Christ, we will fail to understand our need for a Savior. In this study, Nathan examines the “bad news” of the Gospel — we are sinners deserving of judgment … and we desperately need salvation.

This is the second installment in Eric Ludy’s powerful and intriguing new summer series entitled Spiritual Lessons from the Time of Nero. In this episode, Eric lays the foundation for understanding this extraordinary time period of history (from 64 to 70 AD) and the way that knowing this human history can actually impact the lens that a student of Scripture wears in interpreting the text of the Book of Revelation. Utilizing a humorous misunderstanding regarding his possible employment at Starbucks, he unpacks the very real schism the Body of Christ today experiences over this apocalyptic vision. He also shows how it is actually quite reasonable to come to differing viewpoints on the matters in question inside this mysterious book. 

The time of Nero was an incredibly dark time in history; a time when people suffered under the rule of a madman and sadistic mass murderer. But there is also something that happened in the time of Nero that is absolutely extraordinary—something that can cause a believer’s soul to be stirred with great hope. The time of Nero was not just another oppressive memory on the calendar of antiquity—it was a profound season of punctuation to the work of Christ Jesus on the Cross. It was a time of fulfilled prophecy; a time when the Church of Jesus Christ emerged as an unstoppable force in this world. This is the first episode in this exciting Daily Thunder summer series. Let the adventure begin!
