The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses several key points from the Upper Room Discourse in this talk. He notes that the disciples will face challenges, but they should not be troubled as joy will come. Jesus also talks about "father's house mansions", but this does not refer to heaven in the Old Testament context. Gregg explains that believers are the temple of the Holy Spirit, and God dwells in them as a corporate body. The talk also explores the concept of the Trinity and the central role Jesus plays in accessing God the Father through prayer.
