    Legal Counsel For Christians Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 4, 2023

     | 2,059 views

    Jesus provides counsel on domestic disputes, sex crimes, adultery and divorce; and He even says something that can be applied to swearing on the Bible in a court of law. Jesus, being part of the court of heaven, knows about legal matters!

    I have entitled our message for this morning, “Legal Counsel for Christians.” You may not realize it, but the Bible is full of courtroom imagery. The most noteworthy example is the great white throne of judgement seen in the book of Revelation (20:11-15). Did you know that Jesus will be there ...read more

     | 1,691 views

    Nothing we do is more serious and important than worship. The basis of our worship, and the only basis of our worship, is to be the person, nature, and character of God through His son, Jesus Christ.

    Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD www.mycrossway.org Last week we spend some time covering this portion of Scripture in Ephesians Chapter 5 where Paul is writing about the spiritual walk of the believer.

    The word “philosophy” means a love of wisdom. Paul said, "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ” (Col 2:8). There must be two kinds of philosophers.
