    In Jerusalem almost 2,000 years ago the Holy Spirit was given and the church was born. A church can have the presence of the Holy Spirit or just pretend to be a church. A person can have the presence of the Holy Spirit or not. Do you. You can. Why wait?

    Pentecost 2021 Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:6-8 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.

    We are all running towards a goal and our reward is the crown of righteousness that the Lord has promised to all those who run and finish well. However, in order to attain this imperishable crown, we need to exercise self-control in every area of our life.

    A race run well The Apostle Paul writing to the Church in Corinth admonishes them this way. He says to them in 1 Corinthians 9:24 -25,“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run, that you may obtain it. Every athlete exercises self-control in all ...read more

    Boasting or bragging is excluded because it elevates you to the pinnacle of importance. It’s sad to say this, but religion is a great place to do just this – to brag about one’s morality

    “For consider your calling, brothers: not many of you were wise according to worldly standards, not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. 27 But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; 28 God chose what is low ...read more

    Confident That God Is Able

    We can relate to Paul’s life in many ways. One of the ways we can relate to him is that He had GOOD DAYS, and BAD DAYS, and so do we.

    But one of the differences we see between Paul’s life and our life is that through all of his experiences, HE HAD GREAT CONFIDENCE IN GOD. We do not always have this confidence. Honesty compels me to admit that sometimes I can’t help but wonder if God made some big mistakes. • Sometimes from my ...read more
