    Jesus And His Authority

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jan 12, 2016
     | 5,691 views

    The Gospel emphasizes the authority of Jesus and his teachings instead of his words. We need to study his teachings to see the authority they have to change our lives. This can only happen when Jesus is the highest authority in our lives.

    Have you ever noticed that everywhere you go in life, people in authority are telling you what to do and what not to do? These people can be teachers, police officers, government officials or even the staff here at Hillsview Acres. Hopefully these people will do what they feel is best for us ...read more

    I want to begin with a few questions. Feel free to shout out the answer. Q: An electric train is moving north at 100 mph and a wind is blowing to the west at 10 mph. Which way does the smoke blow? A: There is no smoke with an electric train. Q: If there are 6 apples and you take away 4, ...read more

    GOD THE AUTHOR OF RECONCILIATION II Corinthians 5:19 I. WHAT RECONCILIATION IS. 1. It implies that there was a former friendship. 2. It implies an enmity between God and man. 3.

    From Scripture. we will explore the necessity of conforming all our faith and practice and conduct of our lives to the authority of the Bible.

    Biblical Authority: Why is the Bible the foundation for what we believe? In the Baptist Faith and Message, where our Southern Baptist beliefs are outlined, it starts not with what we believe to be true about God, what we believe about Jesus Christ, or what we believe about the Holy Spirit. It ...read more

    Many desire the anointing of God and long to operate in His authority but neglect the alignment with His will and the leadership God has placed them under.

    Alignment, Anointing and Authority: Congregational Poll: • Who wants the Anointing of God in your life? • Who wants to operate in the spiritual Authority of God? • Who wants to have your Alignment adjusted?

    All of us have driven through neighborhoods and noticed that many of the houses are built with carports - some even with double carports - to park their cars out of the bad weather.

    In many of these homes, from the street you see the garage doors are open, and you immediately come to the conclusion there is no way they could park a car in there because they are filled with what looks like junk. It is even dangerous to walk into some of these carports because you might get ...read more

    I share a personal story about my confrontation with a man possessed by a devil and how the Lord helped me understand that the authority we have as His sons and daughters is real.

    Good evening. Bless the Lord, oh my soul and all that is within me. Bless His holy name. I want to say up front. You see me here on a Sunday night with 30 minutes to deliver a message. I want to say up front, loudly and clearly, we have a pastor of great faith! (Laughter) Turn with me to First ...read more

    In this first sermon in the series on the Gospel of Mark, we want to answer the questions: who was Mark and why is he an unlikely author of a Gospel.

    A. One day a woman was cleaning her house and singing Gospel songs as she worked. 1. She began singing, “Soon and very soon, we are going to see the king...” 2. A few minutes later, she heard her young son in the next room and he was singing the same song, but something a little off. 3. Listen to ...read more

    Be Subject To Governing Authorities?

    When Paul wrote Romans chapter 13, did he have in mind total obedience and surrender to a totalitarian government? "If the civil power commands us to violate the law of God, we must obey God before man" (Wuest).

    This morning, I am going to begin our message with an illustration from a 2018 CNN article written by Thomas Weber: “On March 21, 1933, Germany was in turmoil. Less than two months after the Nazi seizure of power, even people with pro-regime leanings felt disquieted about the draconian measures ...read more

    We see the governing mandate, its mission and its means. Human authorities are used by God to achieve His sovereign purposes. We submit to Him and live as good citizens.

    I am not sure if you noticed this, we are always living under some kind of authority in life. • As children, we live under the authority of our parents. In schools, our teachers. At work, our superiors. In church, pastors and leaders. As citizens, our government. • None of these authorities is ...read more
