February 12, 2014 by Mark Trotter

The Most Important Doctrine In The Bible, Part 1

As we move into verse 8 of chapter 1 in our verse by verse study of the Book of Revelation, we are introduced to “THE” most important doctrine in the entire Bible: the deity of Jesus Christ (the fact that Jesus is Jehovah God!). Are you equipped to defend this vital doctrine?

  1. Physical YOUNG MEN are like spiritual YOUNG MEN in that they often think they are “badder” than they really are. #WordStrong
  2. After John wrote Rev. 1:1–7 it’s like Jesus swoops in and says in v. 8: “Let me go ‘on the record’ about WHO I REALLY AM!” #WordStrong
  3. Jesus is GOD! He is NOT simply “OF” God, “FROM” God, “A” God or a “BEGOTTEN” God! #WordStrong
  4. Jesus is “THE” God, the “ONLY & TRUE” God, the “ETERNAL” God, the “ALMIGHTY” God! #WordStrong
  5. Jesus is CO-EQUAL, CO-ETERNAL and CO-EXISTENT with the Father and the Spirit. #WordStrong
  6. Jesus is not a CREATED God, but the CREATOR Himself! He isn’t just FROM the beginning, but was IN the beginning! #WordStrong
  7. J.W.s & Mormons get themselves equipped in their false doctrine to come to our door & SHUT OUR MOUTHS! And with great success. #WordStrong
  8. When do those of us who have the TRUTH get ourselves equipped to SHUT THEIR MOUTHS? (Titus 1:11) #WordStrong
  9. Paul said “I have fought a GOOD fight.” There is such a thing as a GOOD FIGHT! Most Christians involve themselves in BAD fights. #WordStrong
  10. A GOOD FIGHT is a fight that God tells us to fight…it has to do with salvation/the faith. (Jude 3) #WordStrong
