Identity Crisis Pt. 9

Aug 13, 2025    Dr. Mark Lantz

In Identity Crisis Pt. 9, we explore what it truly means that Christ “descended into the lower parts of the earth” and then ascended to reign above all. Drawing from Ephesians 4, Luke 16, and 1 Peter 3, this message unpacks two powerful truths: Christ’s complete victory over spiritual enemies and His liberation of the righteous dead. We’ll trace the journey from Abraham’s Bosom to Paradise, celebrate the gifts Christ has given His church—apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers—and be reminded that our foundation is built on Christ Himself. This teaching will deepen your understanding of Christ’s triumph and strengthen your confidence in the calling He has placed on His people.
