GUEST: GREG GILBERT, senior pastor, Third Avenue Baptist Church

Nearly 2000 years ago, the most important three days in history took place when Jesus Christ was crucified on a cross on Friday, buried in a tomb, and then rose from the dead three days later on Sunday, after which he appeared to hundreds of eyewitnesses.

The reason these events are so consequential is that Jesus was prophesied to be, […]

TOPIC: Easter Special – Why Did Jesus Have to Die to “Take Away the Sins of the World”?

GUEST: Greg Gilbert, Senior Pastor, Third Avenue Baptist Church

One positive result of the coronavirus is that health, family, church, helping others, access to food, and having a job are being re-prioritized as important over the usual trivial pursuits, such as buying things, recreation, and entertainment.

And yet even these important aspects and others—government, political leadership, education, economics—pale in comparison to what took place this weekend about 2000 years […]

TCW Minute: The Believer’s Union with Christ (Week of April 22, 2019)

2019-04-26T13:54:42-05:00Apr 22, 2019|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , , , |

The believer’s union with Christ.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

One of the most important—yet under-emphasized—doctrines is the believer’s union with Christ in His death and resurrection.

Paul writes in Romans 6: For if we have become united with Christ in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection.

This means that just as Christ died to sin on the cross, believers should consider themselves […]

For if we have become united with Christ in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection.  Romans 6:3,5

One of the most important—yet under-emphasized—doctrines of Scripture is the believer’s identification with Christ in His death and resurrection.

But what does this identification with Christ actually mean and how does it […]

Guest: Greg Gilbert, Senior Pastor, Third Avenue Baptist Church

I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting Him who called you by the grace of Christ, for a different gospel; which is really not another; only there are some who are disturbing you and want to distort the gospel of Christ.  Galatians 1:6-7

Consider for a moment that a relatively unknown 37-year-old mayor of South […]

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus.  Romans 3:23-24

This weekend’s program is a re-airing of a program that aired on Easter weekend 2016.  And yet all times of year are important to focus on the only Redeemer of mankind, Jesus Christ, and the good news He […]

TCW Minute: Why Blood? (Week of April 2, 2018)

2018-04-06T15:46:04-05:00Apr 06, 2018|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , , , , |

Why blood? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

The shedding of blood for sin is not peripheral but central to Christianity. God’s word says, “All things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness” (Hebrews 9:22).

This was pictured in the animal sacrifice system of the Old Testament and then culminated Redemption weekend when Jesus Christ bled and died on the cross as payment for our sin.

Sin is […]

TOPIC: Why the Blood of Christ Cleanses Sin?

GUEST: Greg Gilbert, Senior Pastor, Third Avenue Baptist Church

We at The Christian Worldview hope you have a meaningful Easter weekend, remembering this “Good Friday” how Jesus Christ willingly offered His spotless life on the cross to pay God’s just death penalty for our sin, and then on “Resurrection Sunday” how He rose victoriously from the grave, proving God’s wrath and justice over sin was fully satisfied and that those who believe in Him serve […]

What Does It Mean That Christ Is The Believer’s High Priest?

2017-04-15T16:17:18-05:00Apr 15, 2017|Categories: Jesus Christ, The Christian Worldview Radio Program, Theology|Tags: , , , , |

Guest: Greg Gilbert, Senior Pastor, Third Avenue Baptist Church

For it was fitting for us to have such a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and exalted above the heavens; who does not need daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people, because this He did once for all when He offered up Himself. Hebrews 7:26-27

Jesus Christ […]

Who is Jesus and what is the gospel?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Redemption Weekend is this coming weekend.  It was the most important event in the history of the world.  Jesus Christ, having lived a sinless life, offered Himself on the cross as the once-for-all payment for mankind’s sin.  And then He rose from the grave three days later, assuring believers that we serve a living King.

Jesus said that you […]
