TruthTalks: Prophecy

 

I recently presented an overview of the ‘gift’ of prophecy and I am sharing it here on Truth is The Word.

Part One is just under an hour long and covers seven common questions:
  1. What is prophecy?
  2. What forms does it take?
  3. How is it different to Old Testament prophecy?
  4. Why is it important to us?
  5. How are we to prophesy?
  6. How do we test prophecy?
  7. How should we respond to genuine prophecy?

The key scriptures I reference are 1 Corinthians 14:1-5, 29-33  1 Corinthians 13:9-12  Acts 11:28  21:10-11

In Part Two, I give just over half an hour to taking questions from the audience, but if you would like to listen to this you will need to click HERE. Below you will find the audio of the teaching itself.

Have a listen, and if you have any questions you don’t feel I addressed, please feel free to post to my Facebook Page or email me at truthisthewordsite@gmail.com.

Thank you for listening, here is the audio:

TruthTalks: How religions view Jesus

Top image Religions viewing Jesus

What do we do if we find ourselves in a conversation about Jesus and realise the other person is of a totally different faith to our own and we know nothing about it?

In this TruthTalk and Q and A session we talk briefly about 5 major religions, how they view Jesus, and how to “deal” with them. I also quiz Dad (Dr Christopher Peppler) about other religions, and we have an interesting conversation about what happens after we die, the second coming, and more. Give it a listen now and please share with your friends.

Until next time 🙂

TruthTalk: Young people arise!

TruthTalks Young arise

 

In last week’s post “Young People Arise” Dr Christopher Peppler noted the role of the role of young people in past revivals.

He also commented that Jesus’ disciples were all quite youthful, and I (Chris’s daughter) had questions like:

  • How young is young?
  • How today’s youth are supposed to “arise” in a practical way, and
  • What about us folk who fall into the “not so young” category, what is our role?

Listen to the TruthTalk podcast and please let me know (truthisthewordsite@gmail.com) if you have any comments or other questions you would like me to address on your behalf in future TruthTalks.

We are working with new hardware so I must apologise that the Q&A section’s audio quality is not as good as I would like, but we will be addressing this.

About Me

My name is Christopher Peppler and I was born in Cape Town, South Africa in 1947. While working in the financial sector I achieved a number of business qualifications from the Institute of Bankers, Damelin Management School, and The University of the Witwatersrand Business School. After over 20 years as a banker, I followed God’s calling and joined the ministry full time. After becoming a pastor of what is now a quite considerable church, I  earned an undergraduate theological qualification from the Baptist Theological College of Southern Africa and post-graduate degrees from two United States institutions. I was also awarded the Doctor of Theology in Systematic Theology from the University of Zululand in 2000.

Four years before that I established the South African Theological Seminary (SATS), which today is represented in over 70 countries and has more than 2 500 active students enrolled with it. I presently play an role supervising Masters and Doctoral students.

I am a passionate champion of the Christocentric or Christ-centred Principle, an approach to biblical interpretation and theological construction that emphasises the centrality of Jesus

I have been happily married to Patricia since the age of 20, have two children, Lance and Karen, a daughter-in-law Tracey, and granddaughters Jessica and Kirsten. I have now retired from both church and seminary leadership and devote my time to writing, discipling, and the classical guitar.
