    Stealing And Labor Series

     | 4,815 views

    We here the phrase I can't afford to work. The implication is that if I work I will earn less than not working. Eph. 4:28 says that is stealing! The reason I believe many hold this wrong concept and steal is they do not understand God's design for work.

    The tongue is a destructive force that can spew the stench of a rotten heart, but we are called to speak only what is constructive to others. We need to be thinking about our words and changing our attitudes about people while God transforms our lives.

    Have you ever been at the fork in the road and chose the wrong direction, made mistakes that had consequences? Everyone has, how do you fix those mistake?

    I am willing to bet that every one of us, even those that are young, wish you could change something in the past one way or the other. You got to that fork in the road, and you made the wrong turn. You got in a heated exchange and said the wrong thing. You put yourself in a compromised ...read more

    We all have ideas and ideals of how things are and how they should be that have been shaped by our experience and our world. Paul is saying we need to look away from the world to develop new values and thoughts based on God's values.

    Ephesians 4:17 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18 They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their ...read more

    This message is part of our Super Heroes Series. The sermon shows how the story of the Transformers is taken out of the Bible. Although Optimus Prime is a great leader, he is not on the same level as Jesus Christ.

    When we were saved, we became spiritually identified with Christ in His death, His burial and His resurrection. It was then that we died to our old life of sin, and we were spiritually resurrected to the new life we now have in Christ.

    The King’s New Clothes Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 11, 2011
     | 4,483 views

    If we clothe ourselves only in the name of Jesus, the world will see right through it - and through us. We have to put on his life, death and resurrection as well.

    If you change the word “Gentiles” in the first verse of today’s passage to “Americans” the whole lesson moves right into our own situation. They are practically a mirror of contemporary society. Listen to this: “[Americans] are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God ...read more

    Paul gives three ways to identify someone who isn’t saved.

    Intro: eyewitnesses at a crime scene are asked to give a full description of the suspect. Sometimes a sketch is drawn and posted for the public to try to make the identification. Paul is very descriptive in his writings. In today’s text we find a description of a lost person. Here are three simple ...read more
