    "God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another"

    Open your Bible to the Epistle of 1 John, and I would like for you to follow with me as I read from chapter 1 verse 3 to 8 “We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We ...read more

    Do your actions, your faithfulness show you are a part of God's program or does it show that you are outside of it looking on? For you is worshiping the Lord a matter of service to others and obeying Him. This is what honors Him and gives us our purpose.

    Opening Illustration: This line between truth and falsehood is blurred in our society. We pick up newspapers and read touching stories and later find out that the stories were complete fabrications. We are used to politicians making us promises to get our votes, only to forget those promises once ...read more

    Confession is the act of inviting God to walk the acreage of our hearts and clear our hearts of anything that hinders our relationship with him. Once he has done this, we can come before him with thankful hearts.

    How many of you have ever had a spotlight shined directly on you? Was it a comfortable experience? In 1 John 1:5-10 God is described as light, and sometimes that light is very uncomfortable when it’s shined on us. God is infinitely holy, utterly righteous and morally pure. He shines his light ...read more
