    The demon uses the object pronoun “us,” which is non-binary.

    I saw a sweatshirt that said, “I Stopped Fighting My Inner Demons because I realized we’re On the Same Side.” Although most deviant behavior may be explained by natural causes, psychotics, for example, suffer from a loss of object reality while demons are separate spiritual beings. Psychology can ...read more

    What Does It Mean That God Has Given Us An "inheritance"?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 29, 2025
     | 380 views

    It's an odd phrase: we have been given an "inheritance" in Christ? What does that mean? It's not like God is going to die! The phrase doesn't actually point us toward death but toward the Exodus. What can we learn from that reference?

    WHAT IN THE WORLD DOES THAT MEAN? What does Paul mean when he speaks of us having an “inheritance” in the Lord? - Ephesians 1:14; Colossians 1:12; Colossians 3:24. - This is a phrase that has bothered me for a long time and I didn’t really have a great answer to it. There are a few places in his ...read more

     | 403 views

    Sanctification is the process by which a believer is set apart for God’s purposes, living a life that reflects His holiness. To live a sanctified Christian life means to intentionally separate oneself from sin and to pursue a life of purity, guided by the Holy Spirit.

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Feb 13, 2025
     | 398 views

    This is a sermon to prompt us to look at our lives and determine if we are in line with where God would have us be. It begs the question of what standard or measure helps us to align with God's will in our life. (Please feel free to use my personal illustrations if you like)
