Join the host of Pleading The Case, Andy Mendonsa, where in each episode, he will peal back the culture and traditions that have come to define much of the Church in America today in order to accurately assess whether all that is needed is just a good tune-up, or as he has become convinced, a compete overhaul. en-us episodic "Stand Before The Mountains, Let The Hills Hear What You Have To Say" Andy Mendonsa If a tune-up can’t fix a car engine because what it really needs is for the entire engine to be rebuilt, then why would we, in the Christian faith, perform tune-ups on the form and function of our churches when what they may really need is to be completely overhauled?

Presenting yet even more compelling proof that Jesus came to redeem a bride. 1:11:35 no <p>Years ago I found myself asking the question if Jesus is the last Adam, then would that mean that the church, Christ's bride, is in effect the last Eve? If not literally, at least symbolically? How to prove this, though, became more than a challenge for knowing where to even begin such a search. After much thought and deliberation I finally realised that the place that I needed to start was at the beginning with the creation of the first Eve through the first Adam. That if we, as the church, Christ's bride, are seen by God as the last Eve, if you will, then there should be correlations between the description of the creation of Eve in Genesis 2:21-25 and passages in the New Testament having to do with Jesus and what he did on our behalf in order to redeem his bride.

If you have never considered this as a possibility, then the answer might surprise you, especially for what it reveals to us about our present condition as the Church, Christ’s bride? 1:22:55 no <p>Deception is by its very nature subtle, and can happen over long periods of time, even centuries. How do we know if we, as the church, have been deceived, or can we even know? Paul expresses such a concern in II Corinthians 11:2-3, saying that "I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him. But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ" (NIV). How do we know if we have been deceived, though? What does scripture reveal to us for measuring or assessing our condition as Christ's bride at any time and place in history? This first episode of "Pleading The Case" presents the scriptural basis for being able to assess our conditon as Christ's bride in order to determine whether the church today is the bride that God desires her to be, or that she has been deceived as Eve was by the serpent." </p> christ's bride, christianity, condition of the church, deception, desolation, eve, james 1:27, jesus, last adam, salvation, widows, worship Deception is by its very nature subtle, and can happen over long periods of time, even centuries.
