    Be Cautious About Judging Series

     | 4,691 views

    When believers criticize each other, it can actually drive people away from the church. Jesus warned about the consequences of criticizing others, and of the need to do some spiritual self-examination before passing judgement.

The applicable definition for the word “judge” in our main passage means, “to form a judgment or opinion” and to “decide upon critically.”(1) The key word here is “critically,” for when we judge others we are often ...read more

    Spiritual Leaks

     | 4,752 views

    A spiritual leak is a term that describes the loss of spiritual vitality and connection with God that can occur when we blame Him for our problems. It is like a hole in our spiritual armor that allows the enemy to infiltrate and attack us.

    Spiritual Leaks The Lord said to Job, “Do you still want to argue with the almighty? You are God’s critic, but do you have the answers?” Job 40:1-2 Ever had a leaky faucet? If so, you may be aware that ignoring even a small leak can prove costly. When it comes to experiencing God’s peace, there’s ...read more
