    Loving Your Rights Or Your Right To Love Series

     | 2,852 views

    What distractions keep you from being an effective witness for Jesus Christ? One of the chief distractions is focusing on the minor differences between us, instead of building each other up in love. Paul takes this topic head-on in Romans 14.

    We’ve been talking about making ourselves available to become like God and be used by God in his Great Story. Have you ever had an important task to do—a paper to write, an assignment at work to complete, a check book that needs to be balanced? As you set yourself to that task, the phone rings, you ...read more

    Jesus’ Final Instructions, Part 1

    Jesus went to heaven to prepare a place for us to go to when we go to our heavenly home. Going home fulfills the longing we have for God. Only God can fulfill the emptiness of our souls.

    “Let not your hearts be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to myself; that where I ...read more

    Many people gathered before Jesus for healing, but God wants us to gather before Him every single day. Understand the nature of God’s power, do not let yourself be too busy for God, and take responsibility as a Christian to live a Christian life and to do His work.

    Don’t Lose Your Focus on God Mark 1:32-34 Jesus was mobbed by the crowds. Because He taught with authority and healed those who were possessed by an unclean or evil spirit. The crowds all sought him out. The passage tells us that the entire city was at his doorstep. The crowds came to Jesus with ...read more

    The World Does Not See What We Do In Services.

    What the world sees is what we do the rest of the time.

    The World does not see what we do in Church! The world does not see us singing praises to God, taking communion, praying, giving to God. For the most part the world cannot see what we do in our services. What the world sees is what we do the rest of the time. Matt 5: 13-16 This is more than ...read more

    Why in the world do we come to worship, when there are movies to watch, games to go to, and web pages to surf?

    In a television program I watch, there is an episode in which the minister stood up before the congregation. It was a vast sanctuary -- but it was almost empty. The minister looked out upon all of the empty seats and surveyed the 4 lonely people in the congregation -- one young man, ...read more

    The purpose of these judgments is: 1. To bring people to repentance. 2. To demonstrate the patience of God. 3. To establish God’s justice.

    In the book of Revelation there are three major judgments that come to the earth. The first wave is called the seal judgments. They unfold as the Lamb breaks the seals of the scroll. As each seal is broken, it unleashes a new barrage of God’s judgment against an evil and Christ-rejecting world. ...read more

    Like Amos, God has called us to give a testimony to the world that is not always what the world wants to hear, but what God wants us to speak!

    Amos 7:10-15 July 13, 1997 In years past, before GPS and other navigation wonders, the lighthouse was an important feature on every coastline.

    Out of thanks for the love that God has shown us, the Christian husband and wife will submit to one another in humble love in the roles that God has given them.
