    How To Act As A Free Man

     | 8,198 views

    Independence Day for us is when we came to Christ. Christ set us truly free. Some see this freedom as license; but true freedom has constraints. It’s not the right to do as we want but the opportunity to do what is right.

    HOW TO ACT AS A FREEMAN 1 PETER 2:15-17 For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear ...read more

    Emmaus Baptist Church, Quinton, Va: To be good citizens means that we follow Peter’s counsel and honor everyone by supporting the public good; love the church by investing in it; and reverence God by making sure of our personal relationship to Him.

    This is a day to celebrate being a people of God in a nation shaped by the will of God. This is a day to remember who we are, where we came from, and to what we are called. This is a day for honor, love, and reverence. Two years ago, the last time I was here, I mentioned that I had been doing ...read more

    Fearing God is essential in order to be spiritually successful. Christians need to cultivate this virtue in their lives.

    Today, we are going to examine a topic that once was considered to be a very basic part of religious life. It was discussed quite often even to the extent that it was part of common conversation back in the days of our great-grandparents. Today, the topic is shunned by society and even by most ...read more

    So specific is our call to follow Christ as a sheep follows the shepherd, we’re even told to walk in His footprints.

    “For you have been called for this purpose, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example for you to follow in His steps, 22 WHO COMMITTED NO SIN, NOR WAS ANY DECEIT FOUND IN HIS MOUTH; 23 and while being reviled, He did not revile in return; while suffering, He uttered no threats, but ...read more

    I want to ask if you crave the Word of God? Do you have a deep desire to get into it, and when you do, do you have trouble putting it down? Do you get a kind of euphoric feeling when you read something that perhaps you have not read before?

    1 Peter 2:1-12 – Milk & Stones Do you ever get a craving for something? I don’t mean something like, ‘oh, I’d like to have a cool glass of water right now,’ or ‘gee wouldn’t it be nice to eat a good steak tonight,’ or even ‘man I wish I was somewhere else right now.’ No, what I am asking is do ...read more

    God has a view of what he expects his children to be. In His view they are a family of priest sent to represent Him in the world.

    You and Me in the world Last week we talked about vision…We tried to see vision via God’s eyes….Which I believe is not limited by the walls of a building or a membership. A church that does not have a vision that extends past the walls or the church property is held back by man made limits and ...read more

    As Christians we are chosen by God to join others in a church community where we find belonging, significance, love, and where we serve one another. A church is not about catering to our own individual needs and wants.

    The Special WE September 6, 2009 1 Pet 2:9-12 Intro: We are special. That is a true statement, and an important one. We are special – we, the people of God called Laurier Heights Baptist Church are special. As true as the statement is, it is problematic. We hear “special”, and think ...read more
