The Topics
of the
Grace Unity Conference
There are many topics that have division problems associated
with them. Our goal is to work towards unity by discussing these issues
but we also want to make it interesting for the audience, so one of
our challenges is to pick topics that we can work on but also something
that will keep the attention of the audience.
If we were to pick topics of division such as bible chronology and
with the teaching of how old Terah was when Abraham was born, the
audience would get bored really quick. So we discussed what would
be interesting for the audience to hear while we work towards our
goals.
Lately we have found the topic of “Eternal Life Through the
Ages” a very popular and hot topic among grace believers. Some
believers believe that salvation was always by grace through faith
without works. Some believe that works were at one time involved before
the dispensation of grace.
We thought the audience would enjoy hearing this topic so we put it
first.
1. “Eternal Life Through the Ages.”
This topic has three main views among Christians but only two main
views among grace believers:
A) Salvation always had works involved.
B) Salvation never had works involved.
C) Salvation at one time had works involved but now during the dispensation
of Grace no works are involved.
Views “B” and “C” will be taught on.
Our next topics deal with believer’s today in a very personal
way.
2. What happens to my soul when I die?
There are two main views on this subject.
A). One view teaches that your soul goes straight into the 3rd heaven.
B). Another view teaches that your soul sleeps in Christ and will
be resurrected at the rapture.
The next topic is:
3. Where will my soul spend eternity?
There are 3 views on this topic.
A). The first view teaches that after the rapture, we (the body of
Christ) will come back with the Lord at the 2nd coming.
B). The second view teaches we will come back when the new Jerusalem
comes down from heaven at the end of the 1000 year reign.
C). The third view is that we will stay in the 3rd heaven for all
eternity.
And our final topic will be:
4. Free Will
A) Do I have a free will to accept salvation?
B) Was I predestinated to have eternal life?
These should be very interesting topics for the majority of believers.
On the last day of the conference, Sunday December 13, the audience
will be allowed to have their questions answered. You know those questions
that have been bugging you for a very long time? Well, here is an
opportunity to get them answered.
In the back of the meeting room we will have a container for you to
put your questions in. When the time comes we will draw your questions,
randomly out of the container and proceed to find a preacher that
knows the answer. Of course, there might be a difference of opinion
on the answer but we will hear all viewpoints.
So what we have for the conference are some great interesting topics
and I'm sure the questions the audience will have will be very interesting
also.
Come and join us. It’s going to be a lot of fun!
