    Do you own your possessions or do they own you? "Things" can take a toll on: The Heart-AFFECTIONS, The mind-PERCEPTIONS, The will-DIRECTIONS. Link included to formatted text, handout, and PowerPoint Presentation.

    Who Owns You? Matthew 6:19-24 We can divide life into 2 broad categories: the spiritual, and the material. But the Lord Jesus never made that distinction. Matter of fact, He often taught that our attitude toward the material is a mark of your true spirituality. v. 21 ‘Where your treasure ...read more

    Jesus came to do more than stir our emotions: He intends that the whole person be renewed in his image; mind, body, soul and spirit by following the traditions of faithful devotion to Christ and the discipline outlined in Scripture.

    Proper 17 (B) who may dwell in your sanctuary Deuteronomy 4:1-9 Moses said, “And now, O Israel, listen to the statutes and the rules that I am teaching you, and do them, that you may live, and go in and take possession of the land that the Lord, the God of your fathers, is giving you.

    On Memorial Day as well as the Fourth of July, our minds drift to the Patriotism of those who have given their all for our freedom. And, we think, we should be more like them and their love for our country.

    A simple but profound little sermon delivered on Family Sunday--gently challenging us to reflect: does giving to God make me smile? Several Object lessons and stories were used, keeping the many children in mind.

    (this was preached to the whole congregation, but delivered especially with the many elementary age listeners in mind) God Loves a Cheerful Giver ILLLUS: How are you doing with your Smarties?

    Many of us are perplexed of the evils around us. Doesn’t God care anymore? Take heart! God has the sovereign control of every event. Every incident is always in line to what He has in mind.

    Theme: OUR SOVEREIGN GOD Daniel 1:1-7 Intro. A. Looking at the evils happening around us, we would be tempted to think that the Devil and his evil forces had won the world over God. The evils and the ills we have seen seem to be beyond remedy, and God seems to have no concern any longer. It seems ...read more

    What is keeping me from recalling my baptism daily in my life? What is keeping me from loving the Lord my God with all my heart, my soul, my mind, and my strength?

    Questions from the reformers. I want to start my message today with a verse of scripture. Luke 10:37 And he ( Jesus) answered, " YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND; AND YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."

    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,878 views

    Looking out for number one is not always the best idea. Let God look out for you. He has the best in mind for us if we can only accept that He knows best. Beware of self-deceit.

    NEVER SATISFIED This could be the slogan of those who persist in following the deceitful lust of the flesh. Reaping what we Sow, even when it is done in Deceit. 1 Tim. 6:6-8 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 6 Pero gran ganancia es la piedad con contentamiento. (RVG04) 7 For we ...read more

    what is communicated in the Church, what is handed down in her living Tradition, is the new light born of an encounter with the true God, a light which touches us at the core of our being and engages our minds, wills and emotions.

    Thursday of 4th week of Lent 2014 Lumen Fidei The name “Israel” was given to Jacob, son of Isaac and Rebecca, after an incident in which this patriarch wrestled all night with a divine being. That name means “God-fighter,” and it applied well to his descendants. Our OT ...read more

    Different people have different ideas of who Jesus is. To some they do not mind including Him as one of the gods and to others He is one of the prophets...but what does the Bible say who Jesus is?

    At a time when we are mindful of all that we have, the proper response to God’s blessings is to praise Him for the favor He has showed us, and the great things He has done in our lives.

    When you please God and approach His throne in the right attitude of mind, believing that He exists and also a rewarder of Him that seeks Him in Spirit and truth, then, He will make His presence known to you.

    “For he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him” (Hebrew 11:6) When you please God and approach His throne in the right attitude of mind, believing that He exists and also a rewarder of Him that seeks Him in Spirit and ...read more

    God’s word is alive in the Bible. If we allow it, it will speak personally to us and transform our hearts, minds and lives. As his words penetrate our souls, we will truly become available to God.

    Have you ever met people who thought they were better than others? Well, we as Christians know that is a bad attitude to have. No one is better than anyone else. We are all the same before God. He judges Jews and Gentiles alike-impartially and righteously-on the basis of their levels of ...read more

    The New Man is something different, amazing and too complex for the human mind to comprehend. He is not the same with the man before the fall. No! A thousand times more glorious that the Edenic State of Adam. He was born on the resurrection day.

    I am not here this morning to teach another sermon to you. I know you might have heard it all these years that Jesus died and God raised Him up on the third day. Every Easter Sunday comes with this message almost everywhere, but Last week, as I sat in my study room walking up and down the ladder ...read more
