    The Three-Fold Will Of God

    Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Aug 16, 2003
    based on 68 ratings
     | 6,359 views

    The will of God, as it is relates to man, is manifested in three basic expressions: sovereign, conditional and paternal. Each uniquely depicts His dealings with, and His relationship to, man in particular and His entire creation in general.

    THE THREE-FOLD WILL OF GOD “Epaphras, who is one of you, a bondservant of Christ, greets you, always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” Colossians 4:12. The will of God, as it is relates to man, is manifested in three basic ...read more

    PAUL NEVER CLAIMED HE ACCOMPLISHED GREAT THINGS FOR CHRIST BY HIMSELF. HE SAID HE HAD A LOT OF HELP FROM HIS FRIENDS, AND HE RECOGNIZED THEM FOR THEIR HELP.

    With A Little Help From My Friends Text: Colossians 4:7-18 Introduction. Sometimes, I’m sure, we’re all surprised at how things get done.

    Remember My Chains Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 24, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,395 views

    Like some of Paul’s companions in prison, we may be held back by tasks too small, by shame, or even by our own prejudices. But once we accept our limitations as part of God’s will, they become ways to help others and fulfill our life callings.

    If you suffer severe limitations, what do you wish for? What is your prayer, if you are bound by something that keeps you from doing what you really want to do? Do you wish you could be free from it? Likely you do. Do you even pray that you might have that limitation removed? I expect that I ...read more

    Tychicus, Onesimus, and Aristarchus chose to chain themselves to ministries of encouragement, inclusion, and support.

    If you follow the rock music scene, I guess I should hurry to assure you that the sermon today is not about a heavy metal group, nor is it about some kind of kinky fetish. The theme, "A Motley Crew, In Chains" is evoked by the long list of names which Paul singles out as he finishes the Colossian ...read more

    based on 10 ratings
     | 8,107 views

    I have often said the greatest gift God has given to us (second only to Jesus) is the Church. There are so many benefits to being not only a part of the body of Christ on the earth, but a part of a local body of believers.

Prov. 18:24 “A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” Do you have a friend who sticks closer than a brother? Or did you ever? ...read more
