    Do I Bear The Marks?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 21, 2022
     | 1,311 views

    The world is loaded with temptations. We are faced every day with both inconspicuous social tensions and open propaganda. We are continually bombarded with worldly enticements. How much do the interests of this world truly have influence on us?

    Paul wrote this letter to the Christians in Galatia. Its purpose was to discredit the Judaizers, the individuals who instructed that the Gentile adherents should comply with the Jewish law to be saved, and to call all Christians to believe and have faith in Christ and the freedom that he brings. ...read more

     | 4,814 views

    How would you respond if God called your name not once, but twice? In the Bible, God calls plenty of people, often by name, but I’ve only found seven times where God calls out someone’s name twice in a row. In each instance, what follows is a life-changing encounter with the God of creation.

    When God Calls Your Name… Twice: Simon Peter Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 8/28/2016 For the last several of weeks, we’ve been talking about how you might respond if God called your name—not just once, but twice. As I mentioned before, God calls plenty of people in the ...read more

    Three Root Sins

     | 3,707 views

    Both Eve and Jesus were tempted just as we are. They were tempted by Satan, who used the three root sins.

    There are many sins, but they all come from three “root sins”…three heart problems. All that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 1John 2:16 Three Root Sins —the lust of the flesh —the lust of the ...read more

    The heart of this stanza in the Lord’s Prayer is the distrust of the self. And because I don’t trust myself, I rush into the presence of God as my refuge from temptation.

    Dr. Bradford Reaves Crossway Christian Fellowship Hagerstown, MD www.mycrossway.org This is the last message in the Lord’s Prayer. What a fantastic series of messages we’ve encountered in the midst of our series of the Sermon on the Mount. We’ve come to the last stanza in verse 13 “And do not ...read more
