This was a very short lived experience for Terry, as he would learn that God was leading him not to be taught of men, but by Spirit of the father. In this, he would experience the Spirit planting others organically in his life to teach him, not organizationally through the systems of men. He would then go west to Phoenix, Arizona, where he first came into the “Home Church Experience.” It was there, that Terry developed his teaching gift as he would teach in most meetings. Through a member in the Church there, he met his future wife Susie. They married in 1980, and began meeting in their home as the Church in Tucson. They had these meetings in their home for about 24 years.
Around 1986, Terry read a book entitled “The Parousia”, by James Stuart Russell. He came across the book through a subscription he had to “Great Christian Books“, now known as “Christian Book Distributors.” This company was greatly influenced at the time by Walt Hibbard. (www.Preteristviewpoint.com) After reading the book, Terry threw the book full force into the wall shouting, “No way!” It had challenged him to the core. He faced this challenge and began to concede to the author’s conclusions. The book went through every single scripture in the New Testament that used the Greek word “Parousia”, which means coming presence. The author gave extensive detail to the context of each usage of the word, and subscribed them all to the first century. Terry was revolutionized in how the scriptures simply opened up (Luke 24:45) and became so much clearer to him. With this excitement for the word of God, he began to teach on these matters at the home meetings. At one such meeting, many church members literally stood up together and walked out of the meeting. He would suffer much rejection and misunderstandings from many others over the years on this matter of eschatology. Yet, he has stood firm and faithful to the truth of scripture regardless of the cost. He has been a stable support for many over the years, including Gary and Mike. He continues his quest and hunger for the truth of the word of God.]]>enChristianityCopyright Live By Truthhttps://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/9b9b2535d37ff27c1204b182f32c5554.jpghttps://www.spreaker.com/podcast/altar-life--6604417Thu, 04 Sep 2025 00:25:42 +0000Live By TruthLive By Truthaltarlife@gmail.comTerrance Kashian was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

We take a deeper look at Abraham, who had many physical descendants, yet Scripture focuses on one particular seed — Christ. The promises given to Abraham were not about a geographical land but pointed toward a spiritual inheritance through Christ. Therefore, our position in God’s family is not based on earning or effort, but on identity. Because we belong to Christ, we are the true seed of Abraham and heirs according to God’s promise.

This message calls believers to rest securely in their identity in Christ — not as earners, but as beloved children of God living out the faith that justifies.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/65725313Fri, 25 Apr 2025 13:56:09 +0000Live By TruthFrom A little house church in Tucson in 2024 - In this message, I unpack the bold declaration of Romans 4:5 — that righteousness is credited to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly.
