Will You Be Disqualified?
by Iain MacMillan

In the biblical series, Will You Be Disqualified?, a difficult but serious question is addressed.  Is it possible to be disqualified from the inheritance even though redeemed?  What constitutes the inheritance?  What the Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians, he believed that it was possible for him to be disqualified.  Since it was possible for Paul to be disqualified, does this infer that we too may be disqualified? 

"24Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize?  So run that you may obtain it.  25Every athlete exercises self-control in all things.  They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.  26So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air.  27But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified" (1 Corinthians 9:24-27).

This series of messages identifies what the redeemed are TO DO to avoid disqualification, and focuses on the importance of "walking by faith" as compared to the popular misnomer of someone taking a "step of faith".  These messages identifies the error popularly espoused by those of "this present evil age" that a redeemed person can never be disqualified from their inheritance, despite living ungodly.

The goal of these messages is to expound how God's redeemed are to walk in "this present evil age" to ensure they are not disqualified.  The emphasis is for the redeemed to persevere and to inherit what God has planned for His children who walk by faith.  Furthermore, the current ministry of our Lord and Savior as High Priest is exemplified to be absolutely necessary to realize the FULL future inheritance.  Therefore, it is imperative that the godly qualities clearly depicted in the Scriptures are to be lived NOW in order to have an entrance into His coming earthly kingdom.

We invite you to join us on Sunday mornings at 11:30 AM Pacific Time to watch the live broadcast available via Internet.
