Part 31 The Resurrection of Christ – Foundation of the Gospel of the

Kingdom (1 Corinthians 15:1–8)

In this teaching, we uncover why the resurrection is not just a doctrinal detail but the foundation of the Gospel of the Kingdom. Paul reminds the Corinthians that the gospel he received is rooted in the Torah, the Prophets, and the Writings - and fulfilled in Messiah Yeshua.

Let's explore the resurrection as the central event confirming the New Covenant.

How Paul and the apostles preached the same Gospel as Yeshua-centered on the Kingdom, covenant restoration, and resurrection power.

The connection between Exodus 32, the golden calf, and the shift from a national Melchizedek priesthood to a temporary Levitical system.

How Yeshua restores the original priestly order, fulfilling Psalm 110:4 and Hebrews 5–8.

Why the resurrection is our assurance of victory, identity, and eternal purpose.

Resurrection is proof of the Messiah’s identity (Romans 1:4) and the ratification of the New Covenant (Hebrews 7).

Covenant-breaking at Sinai led to the establishment of the Levitical priesthood, but Yeshua restores the Melchizedek priesthood.

The apostles didn’t preach a shallow gospel. They preached the restoration of the kingdom, fulfillment of the covenant, and the Messiah's reign.

Embrace the full gospel—not a reduced version.

Live in the power of the resurrection.

Step into your priestly identity in Messiah, restored and renewed.

This message is a call to return to the apostolic, covenant-based gospel that

transforms hearts and nations.

An Eternal Perspective | Live Zoom Call Message

Welcome to the message segment from our weekly Zoom call.

In this session, we are reminded to live with an eternal perspective - grounded in the Gospel, strengthened in faith, and pressing toward the Kingdom of God.

1 Thessalonians 2:10–12 “You are witnesses, and so is God, of how holy, righteous and blameless we were among you who believed... encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.”

Paul's pastoral heart shines here as he reminds us how to walk faithfully in our calling - as children of God, living lives worthy of His kingdom.

Revelation 11:15 “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign for ever and ever.”

This powerful verse reveals the ultimate reality: God's reign is eternal and will one day be fully revealed.

1 Corinthians 15:1–2 “By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you...”

A timely reminder that salvation is not just about receiving the Gospel once - but about standing firm in it daily.

In This Teaching: Encouragement to live with purpose and urgency A call to walk in holiness and truth as faithful witnesses Reflection on the Gospel's power and the coming Kingdom of God Let this teaching strengthen your heart, align your focus with eternity, and inspire you to live boldly for Yeshua, our Messiah.

Rejecting Deliverance Theology | Historical Overview & Biblical Response

I have enclosed a personal letter for everyone listening to this series

https://member.bulldozerfaith.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Introduction-Letter-for-the-Series-Deliverance-Pitfalls.pdf

In today’s teaching, we explore the historical

development of the deliverance ministry movement - from early church

practices to modern-day trends- and why it departs from sound biblical

doctrine.

Key Points

1st- 3rd Century: Exorcism was for

unbelievers prior to baptism—not for Spirit-filled believers.

1970s Onward: Teachers like Derek Prince

and Frank Hammond introduced controversial doctrines—e.g., believer

demonization, naming spirits, generational curses.

1980s - 1990s: Sensational teachings (e.g., Rebecca

Brown) led to paranoia and spiritual confusion.

Biblical Pushback: Leaders like John MacArthur,

R.C. Sproul, and even Assemblies of God rejected these teachings

as unbiblical and harmful.

Why It Spread: Emotional testimonies, spiritual

sensationalism, and lack of discipleship left many vulnerable.

Common

Errors Exposed

Confusing sin with demon possession

Replacing sanctification with exorcism

Promoting fear over faith

Undermining the finished work of Messiah

What the Bible Teaches

Freedom comes through repentance, truth,

and discipleship (John 17:17; Romans 6–8).

The Holy Spirit dwells in believers - not

demons (1 Cor. 3:16).

Our identity in Christ gives lasting victory (Gal.

2:20; Col. 2:15).

Goal of this Series

To equip the Body of Messiah with biblical truth, expose error, and restore

confidence in the power of the Gospel - not deliverance formulas.

Let’s walk in truth, freedom, and maturity—together.

A Balanced Understanding of Biblical Anointing

In this teaching, we confront the growing misuse of the term “anointing” in modern charismatic/Pentecostal circles.

Many have equated anointing with emotional experiences or mystical feelings, but the Bible paints a different picture- one centered on Christ, empowered by the Spirit, and grounded in truth and mission. We unpack key Scriptures- Isaiah 61:1- 2, Luke 4:18-19, Acts 10:38 - to clarify that the anointing is not a transferable “force” or atmosphere, but the divine empowerment for ministry rooted in God’s calling and purpose.

We also expose common false teachings that turn the anointing into a spiritual hierarchy or subjective feeling.

You'll learn:

• What the Bible really teaches about the anointing

• Why the modern "felt presence" doctrine is dangerous

• How all believers share in the true anointing through union with Christ

• How the gospel, not mystical power, sets people free. Let’s return to a Christ-centered, Spirit-empowered, and Scripture-driven understanding of the anointing.

Breaking the Chains – Rethinking Generational Curses in Light of God’s Justice | Exodus 20:4–6

In today’s teaching, we take a deep theological and scriptural look at Exodus 20:4–6, a passage often misused by modern deliverance ministries to justify the idea of “generational curses.” We explore how this verse fits with God’s justice, the biblical emphasis on personal responsibility (Ezekiel 18:20, Deuteronomy 24:16), and the transforming power of the gospel.

We uncover that Exodus 20 does not teach inherited guilt but warns of consequences for those who continue in the sins of their ancestors—“those who hate Me.” Far from imposing mystical curses, the Bible reveals the persistence of generational patterns, not demonic bondage passed through bloodlines.

Key truths include:

God's justice is personal and redemptive.

Generational sin patterns are broken through repentance, not deliverance rituals.

The Cross is sufficient—Christ became the curse for us (Galatians 3:13).

You are not bound by your ancestors; in Messiah, you are a new creation (2 Cor. 5:17).

This message frees believers from fear-based teachings and calls them to walk in truth, obedience, and the power of the Spirit.

Delivered From the Domain of Darkness – Colossians 1:13 | Biblical Truth vs. Modern Deliverance Myths

25 Days of Spiritual Growth Devotional

https://member.bulldozerfaith.com/product/25-days-of-spiritual-growth-devotional/

In this teaching, we expose the errors of violent, experiential deliverance practices commonly found in today’s ministries—screaming demons, naming spirits, and emotional manifestations.

Using Colossians 1:13 as our anchor, we contrast these claims with sound biblical doctrine rooted in salvation, sanctification, and Spirit-filled living.

We address five common “deliverance” categories—anger, lust, addiction, generational curses, and trauma—and show how Scripture calls us to crucify the flesh, renew our minds, and walk in the Spirit.

We also uncover the theological dangers of false deliverance teachings: denying the sufficiency of Christ, promoting fear over faith, and twisting biblical authority.

True freedom is found not in rituals, but in Christ alone.

True Freedom in Messiah - A Biblical Response to Deliverance Ministry Myths

25 Days of Spiritual Growth Devotional

https://member.bulldozerfaith.com/product/25-days-of-spiritual-growth-devotional/

In this teaching, we confront the growing errors within many modern deliverance ministries that externalize sin—labeling struggles like anger, lust, and addiction as demons to be cast out—rather than dealing with the biblical call to repentance, renewal, and spiritual growth.

We explore how Scripture teaches freedom through salvation, sanctification, and Spirit-filled living, not through repeated exorcism rituals.

Jesus cast out demons from unbelievers as a sign of the Kingdom, but for the born-again believer, the focus is on putting off the old nature and walking in the Spirit.

Topics covered include:

The truth behind so-called "spirits of anger, lust, and addiction"

Why generational curses don’t apply to those in Christ

Misinterpretation of Mark 16:17 in modern deliverance practices.

The biblical pattern of transformation through the Word, not performance-based deliverance.

Anchored in verses like Galatians 5, Romans 6, and John 8:36, this message helps believers walk in true biblical freedom - not fear, theatrics, or confusion.

The Whole New Creation: Spirit, Soul, and Body — Redeemed and Protected in Messiah

Exposing the Lies in Today’s Deliverance Movement

This teaching confronts the false idea that only the spirit is saved at new birth, leaving the soul or body vulnerable to demon possession. It affirms the biblical truth that the entire person—spirit, soul, and body—is redeemed in Messiah.

1. Salvation Is Whole-Person Redemption

1 Thessalonians 5:23 – God sanctifies us entirely: spirit, soul, and body.

Salvation is more than spiritual rebirth—it includes the renewing of the soul and the future glorification of the body.

2. Stages of Salvation (Past, Present, Future):

Justification (Spirit – past): Born again (Titus 3:5)

Sanctification (Soul – present): Ongoing renewal (Romans 12:2)

Glorification (Body – future): Resurrection to immortality (Romans 8:23)

3. New Creation Means Fully Transformed Identity

2 Corinthians 5:17 – In Messiah, old things pass away.

We are not fragmented beings; in the Hebraic view, salvation touches every part of us.

4. Born-Again Believers Cannot Be Demon-Possessed

1 Corinthians 6:19 – Your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit.

2 Corinthians 6:14–16 – Light and darkness cannot cohabit.

Luke 10:19; Colossians 1:13 – Believers have authority and are transferred from darkness.

Possession is not possible where the Holy Spirit dwells. Influence? Yes. Possession? No.

5. Temptation Is Not Possession

Believers may face external attacks (James 1:14), but nowhere does Scripture show demon possession of the redeemed.

6. Walking in the Fullness of Redemption

Romans 12:1–2; James 1:21 – Renew the mind, yield the soul, offer the body in service.

You are saved, sealed, and called to grow in maturity, not fear.

Exposing the Roots of the False Teaching:

False Claim: “Only your spirit is saved; your soul or body can be demon-possessed.”

Rooted in: Pagan Greek dualism (Plato): Spirit good, body evil

Gnostic heresy: Secret knowledge frees spirit, ignores body

New Age mysticism: Rituals cleanse body/soul from “energies”

These systems deny the biblical unity of the person and sufficiency of Christ’s work.

The Biblical, Hebraic View:

• We are unified beings created in God’s image (Genesis 2:7).

• The Holy Spirit indwells the believer fully (John 14:17; 1 Cor. 6:19).

• The whole person is redeemed, protected, and sealed (Ephesians 1:13).

Conclusion:

• This false teaching fosters fear, diminishes Christ’s finished work, and opens doors to New Age practices dressed in Christian language.

The truth:

You are fully saved in Messiah—spirit, soul, and body.

You are sealed, secure, and victorious over darkness.

No demonic power can inhabit a born-again believer.
