Obedience is a primary responsibility for the individual believer as well as the church as a whole.
We discuss what does it mean to "work out our salvation" To begin with God has fun with a bit of wordplay for as God works IN us we are to work OUT. In other words we are to express horizontally our vertical salvation. Additionally, the Greek word for work out is related to how a miner works out a deposit of ore or a farmer works to bring in his harvest.
We are informed that God has given us three tools to help us to conform to Christ's image: the Word of God, Prayer, and the last one is the one I dislike the most - Suffering! God uses suffering to help drive us to the Father and to learn to respond with growth as we learn to suffer for His name's sake.
These non-denominational Bible studies are led by Dr. Val and recorded live. Some 20-25 men meet weekly at 6:30 AM for an hour. They study and discuss a passage from Scripture. Questions are encouraged and often lead to interesting rabbit trails that help us discover and process additional Biblical truths
