    This morning I am going to touch on the subject of “hypocrisy.” It’s difficult to preach on this subject matter because none of us are without some form of hypocrisy in our life. Jesus told us not to point out the splinter in our brother’s eye until we have removed the log in our own eye (Matthew ...read more

    We may have the things we need to get by, but if we don’t have Jesus, we don't have anything! We may look at people and they may have lots of things but if they don't have Jesus they don't have anything.

    So often, we Christians--like everyone else get caught up on the outward appearance of our physical bodies, our homes, our cars and our families. Even more dangerous than focusing on the "appearance" of these things, we quite often focus on the appearance of our Christianity.

    Jesus prayed and relied on the Holy Spirit for every change. Even at the times of Christ’s greatest popularity He knew that only the Spirit produces lasting change.

Even when individuals claim to have experienced a spiritual rebirth, skepticism arises. But the Bible tells us ...read more
