    God's plan is to bring his children to the mindset of the just.

    God's plan is to bring his children to the mindset of the just. This mindset only comes by the Word, in other words we are to expose our minds into the Word so much so, that the Word cultures our thinking. Luke 1:17 says concerning Jesus, "And he shall go before him in the spirit and power ...read more

    The Beginning Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Oct 2, 2022
     | 3,687 views

    This is the opening sermon for a series based on The Book of Proverbs. I thought it would be a good idea to start a series based on the preeminent book of wisdom literature by discussing and defining what the book means by "wisdom" starting with the first chapter of The Book of Proverbs.

    [Hold up Bible.] I love this book. You’ve heard me refer to it as “The Owner’s Manual.” It contains stories, history, poetry, adventure, drama. It contains hymns. It contains theology, philosophy, and it contains wisdom. Every book in the Bible is there for a reason. Believe it or not, not ...read more

    We examine being filled with the Spirit. The fact is, we have all of the Holy Spirit at the time of our conversion and regeneration. The question is, does the Holy Spirit have all of us?

    Over the this last month, we have been examining what Paul described as: that you put off, … the old man ... and that you put on the new man … (Ephesians 4:22a and 24a) As Christians, we have become a new creation in Christ. As a new creation, we discussed how taking off the old man is like ...read more

    It is a great part of prudence to know when to be silent and when to speak. If you have nothing good, true or useful to say, it is better to be silent and say nothing. You have two ears and one mouth—use them proportionately.”

    THE WISDOM OF SILENCE Oh, that you would be silent, and it would be your wisdom! (Job 13:5) “A fool utters all his mind: but a wise man keeps it in till afterwards.”—Proverbs 29:11 The tongue is a deadliest weapon. It’s quick, sharp ...read more
