What is revival? It is another dimension, in which tremendous things happen and God’s people are at last moved.
Read MoreDr. John Snyder and Acey Floyd are back in the studio this week to continue discussing the Christian's union with Christ. Having spent several episodes on the work of God alone in uniting us to Christ, we now turn to the work that involves us: sanctification. God decrees that all His adopted children will resemble Christ. This is a promise from our Creator, but that doesn't mean it will be smooth, easy, or fast. It is sometimes a roller coaster. However, His promise is enough, and we will see change over the trajectory of our lives.

Read MoreJustification is too substantial a topic for one episode, so Dr. John Snyder and Acey Floyd continue focusing on the objective reality of the Christian’s union with Jesus Christ in this week’s episode. But the duo shifts the perspective for this episode from last week’s focus on how sinful man can be made right with God, to how God can be just and make man right with Him The answer, as made clear throughout all Scripture, is the imputation of our sin upon Christ and God’s imputing our sin to Christ.
