    The Test Of Spiritual Maturity

    Contributed by Abraham Shanklin on Jan 31, 2004
    based on 35 ratings
     | 11,568 views

    John’s epistle has reminded us to exercise love (1 John 2:7–11)—the right kind of love. Now it warns us that there is a wrong kind of love, a love that God hates. This is love for what the Bible calls “the world.”

    The Test of Spiritual Maturity Scripture Reference: 1 John 2:12 – 17 Introduction A group of first-graders had just completed a tour of a hospital, and the nurse who had directed them was asking for questions. Immediately a hand went up. “How come the people who work here are always washing their ...read more

     | 10,102 views

    This sermon deals with the evils of Mardi Gras and its effect upon the heart, mind and soul of men, especially Christians who take part in the revelry.

    FAREWELL TO THE FLESH Since we live in south Louisiana, I think it would be timely for this message concerning the Mardi Gras season. It’s that time again; the time for King Cakes, Purple and Gold decorations, costumes and decadence beyond description. This is the time when the true heart of ...read more

    This is the first in a series of 8 messages centered around the importance of changing the climate in which we live, work or play.

    Changing the Climate What do you value most in life? What would you be willing to sacrifice everything for? Is there anything? Many of us would have sung that hymn: All to Jesus I surrender, all to Him I freely give, but how true are those words for us as we sing them! God has a purpose and plan ...read more

    We are secure in our faith. John tells us that those who walk away from the faith were never a part of the faith to begin with.

    In 1936, when delays slowed construction, over $130,000 was invested in a novel safety feature: a vast net -- similar to a circus net -- suspended under the Golden Gate Bridge. The safety net extended ten feet wider than the bridge’s width and fifteen feet further than the roadway’s length. It gave ...read more
