     | 726 views

    Believers should both hear and act on the Word of God. Those who listen and respond are blessed in their actions.

    Ever had your parents ask you to do something, and you're like, 'Yeah, yeah, I heard you,' but then you never actually do it? It's like you heard the words, but they just didn't sink in. James is telling us that it's not enough to just hear God's Word; we've got to do something about it. Remember ...read more

    Understand and cultivate the mind of Christ in our lives, enabling us to think, act, and love like Him.

    Good morning, beloved congregation. We are gathered here today to explore a profound teaching found in the book of Philippians.

    Emphasize the urgency of acting now in unity and faith, especially in challenging times, rather than falling into complacency.

    Good morning, Church family. As we gather here today, let's take to heart the words of the Apostle Paul in his second letter to the Corinthians. "For he says, 'In a favorable time I listened to you, and in a day of salvation I have helped you.' Behold, now is the favorable time; behold, now is the ...read more

    Adoption

    Contributed by David Scudder on Aug 21, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,506 views

    The word "adoption" is an action noun, so it acts like a verb, i.e. the Holy Spirit performs the act of adopting. In Roman law an adopted child had the exact same position and privileges as a natural born child, e.g. legal standing, or inheritance.

    Purpose: To show what spiritual adoption is and what a great privilege it is. INTRODUCTION: ADOPTION huiothesia ^5206^, from huios, "a son," and thesis, "a placing," akin to tithemi, "to place," signifies the place and condition of a son given to one to whom it does not naturally belong. The word ...read more

    SELDOM IN LIFE DO WE COUNT THE COST BEFORE WE ACT. We must consider price, cost, worth and value before we act. Did Achan consider the cost of the gold and new clothes? Do we consider the cost of our choices?

    MUCH GOODS, LITTLE TIME... By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com TEXT: Luke 12:19 (KJV) And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.

    Self- Control

     | 2,154 views

    When the Spirit has control of our thoughts and actions, then we'll be able to think before we act and have the willingness and strength to follow God's will for our lives. Self-control requires that we think before we act.

    Self- Control (Fruits of the Holy Spirit) Gal 5: 22 1. Psalm: 11 2. Judges 16:4-18 3. Genesis 39:11-18 Today we come to the ninth and final fruit of the Spirit – the fruit of self-control.

    Acts 17 is the story of a monotheistic Jew smack dab in the middle of polytheistic Gentiles. Acts 17 is the story of a narrow minded former Pharisee surrounded by broad minded philosophers. Conversations with God believers. Paul found common ground even with Athenians. (Barna quote)

    Can A Genuine Believer Lose Their Salvation?

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on May 27, 2023
     | 1,623 views

    This is the concept of remaining in faith. Abiding in Christ. We must hold fast to our faith, not drifting away, while also knowing that Christ holds us firm, and we do not need to fear the Father losing his hold on us. This sacred balance is a difficult one.

    Once an unbeliever has given their life to Christ, been regenerated by the Holy Spirit, reborn of Christ, and placed into the kingdom of God, can such a person fall away, and lose their salvation? This question is so incredibly important. It goes to the very core of the gospel: How does it ...read more

    The Dream Of Pilate’s Wife

    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 9, 2022
     | 3,889 views

    Pilate had to face the decision of what to do with Jesus. With sins dragging on him and forces of evil crying for Christ's blood, Pilate stood in the balance. Just then, his wife had a dream from God to warn him. We all are warned not to decide this wrongly.

    THE DREAM OF PILATE’S WIFE Matt. 27:11-26 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE AGGIE’S LAST REQUEST 1. Back in the Old West three Texas cowboys were about to be hung for cattle rustling.

     | 126 views

    God calls us to faithfully serve and invest where we are, trusting that our everyday obedience and small acts matter deeply to Him.

    There are days when the King’s call feels as close as the breath in your lungs. Ordinary mornings. Familiar streets. A desk, a kitchen, a classroom. Yet heaven whispers, This is holy ground. Not a stage, not a spotlight—just the square of earth beneath your feet and the neighbors within your reach. ...read more

    The model of the book of Acts is clear. The apostles went with the gospel to people not just like themselves, but to stangers. That’s what love compels us to do!

    Acts 11: 19-30 "Love" is one of those sadly misunderstood words in the human language today. What do people usually mean when they say they "love" something or someone? I consulted the American Heritage Dictionary of the Enlish Language. The definitions are ranked by how frequently they are ...read more
