    God restores me because: 1. God’s love is UNCONDITIONAL 2. Salvation isn’t based on my PERFORMANCE 3. Jesus has already taken my PUNISHMENT 4. Jesus understands my human WEAKNESS 5. God doesn’t hold on to GRUDGES

    God’s Restoring Grace Folks, here is a fact that I have learned in life – relationships change. It does not matter whether it is the relationship with your spouse – your children or your friends. Relationships change. This is also true of your relationship to God. Your relationship to Jesus is ...read more

    #4 in series. This is about reconciliation, God with us and then us with others.

    Colossians 1:19-23 – Give Peace a Chance Today’s message is one of those I didn’t really want to preach. It’s not that it’s not true; the issue is that people often don’t want hear what is being said. It’s funny how people tell preachers to give them the ...read more

    Despite the sin in our lives, and the consequences it had for Him, Jesus loves us with a love that defies human understanding, and forgives us unconditionally.

    “Forgive them Father, they don’t know what they are doing” (Luke 23:34) “Forgive them Father, they don’t know what they are doing”. Ten pretty simple, unambiguous words which do not leave much scope for misinterpretation, and yet ten words that have ...read more

    I Have Something To Say To You

    Contributed by Gaither Bailey on Jun 10, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,081 views

    What we need to realize is this: we share the fact that none of us are saved by anything we are or do. We are saved and forgiven by our loving relationship with the risen Christ.

    I Have Something To Say To You Intro: It was rush hour. The woman was late for an important appointment. She cursed the drivers around her as she weaved in and out of traffic. When a car wedged in front of her, she laid on the horn and slipped the offending driver off. She shook her fist at ...read more

    We have all been recipients of grace. We are to exercise grace. Joseph gives us a great example of a man who did just that.

    Outside the Lord Himself, Joseph is one of the best examples of the Bible characters for acting right and having the right kind of attitudes in bad situations. Joseph had some bad things happen to him, but he just kept on doing right and thinking right. His brothers were jealous of him, and they ...read more

    The sermon is based upon the life of Jospeh and his ability to allow grace to be the rule of his life.

    When the word "judgment" infers everlasting consequences it immediately takes on a vastly greater significance.

    THE INEVITABLE ACCOUNTING “So then each of us shall give account of himself to God.” Romans 14:12 (NKJV) “Judgment” is a thought-provoking word in and of itself. It is not often a pleasant thought in the life of anyone. When the judgment referred to has everlasting consequences the word ...read more

    As a christians we shoul be lieving a live as a forgiven person. Forgivness gives freedom, it is an acceptance of what God has done for us through Christ. What weight, trash are we carring around.
