    Scripture Introduction The world defines freedom as the license to do whatever we want. God (on the other hand) says it is the ability to do whatever is right. Human freedom flows from obedience.

Luke has positioned it after Jesus teaches “The Lord’s Prayer,” and has included the saying about prayer that uses the “ask, seek, and knock,” which Matthew has as part of the Sermon ...read more

    Sometimes God gives us the opportunity to use the lessons we’ve learned and the comfort He’s given us during difficult times to help others in special ways. God doesn’t comfort us to make us comfortable; He comforts us to make us comforters.

    Tools of the faith make our journey easier. As we live in the will of God as we think in accordance with his will, we stay in his will.

    We are told in scripture to work out our salvation. The interesting thing about this is that when we work we need a few tools and the better the quality of the tools the easier the job usually goes and the better the results.

    The great question of the Resurrection is not whether it really happened - it did — and the evidence is overwhelming, so that’s not the question. Instead, the great question of the resurrection is - now what?

    TITLE: EASTER, THE GOSPEL OF HOPE SCRIPTURE: ST.
