    God sets the standard for GOODNESS ... He turns badness into GOODNESS. It’s God’s nature to be good. We can trust in the GOODNESS of God.

    “Ain’t God Good!” INTRODUCTION: God is good … AMEN? I learned this from childhood. 1.- When I was just a child, my mother taught me a prayer to say at mealtime: “God is great, God is GOOD, let us thank Him for our food. By His hands we all are fed.

    Holiness is the gift of an identity, appearing to be too good to be true, but received by accepting forgiveness.

    Today’s message is framed by incidents provided by two church members. I will not be naming the players, but they have given me both the beginning and the ending of this message on holiness. The beginning: a few days ago one of you told me that you came to worship each Sunday so that you could ...read more

    In this sermon, I link Psalm 98 with the Isaac Watts' hymn "Joy to the World." The Advent theme is joy, so I ask: Do you want to have a merry Christmas? Do you want to have a joy-filled Christmas? Then look to Jesus.

    T-minus 6 days, amen? Christmas is next Saturday … it’ll be here before we know it, amen? How many of you have all your Christmas shopping done?

    Getting Right With God

    Some people think that God looks at our lives and balances the good against the bad. If we have more good than bad, we get to heaven. That’s not how it works - to get right with God you’ve got to go around the law and get rightness from another source.

    We can get ourselves pretty depressed and worried and fearful and even sick if we let our minds dwell on so many ‘bad’ things. We ought to spend a lot more time thinking about good things, and not so much time worrying about bad things.

    Think about these things…November 29, 2009 Philippians 4:8,9 What are you thinking about right now? Maybe you are thinking about how nice it is to be in church this morning, with people who think it’s nice to have you here. Maybe you’re having thoughts about what you had ...read more
