    We are called to be "the light of the world". This message encourages us to do two things: let our light shine BEFORE others and not AT them and to let our light shine without being showy.

     | 1,108 views

    How content are you in your circumstance? Are you single wishing to be married? Are you married wishing you were single? Where you are right now is the circumstance that the Lord has you in. The real question is not so much about your contentment but in making use of your circumstance to serve him.

    1 Corinthians 7:32-40 Single vs. Married 11/2/03 D. Marion Clark Introduction I’ve almost made it! I’ve waded through the swampy water of chapter 7 and the dry bank is before me.

    This warning in the book of Hebrews speaks of: the impossibility of those who fall away from “being brought back to repentance.” The Hebrews are not in danger of having their salvation stolen, but are in danger of giving it away.

    The analogy of the child being the greatest in God’s Kingdom was completely contrary to the prevailing culture then and now. Imagine how His disciples must have reacted to Jesus then and how indifferent it is even today.

    Opening illustration: If God was taking resumes, what would you put on yours? In other words, what makes a good Christian? What would really impress them when you arrive in heaven? Experience, qualifications, references, character traits … The reason I asked is because followers of Jesus ...read more

     | 1,764 views

    The churches in Galatia were being influenced by those who would "pervert the gospel of Christ" (1:6-7; 3:1). Known as "Judaizing teachers,"

    Paul recognized the danger of teaching such things. Because the enemies of the true gospel were trying to support their case by undermining Paul's authority as an apostle of Christ, it was necessary to verify that he was truly an apostle "not from men nor through man, but through Jesus ...read more
