    Seeing God As He Is Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jan 11, 2012
     | 7,757 views

    This is an introduction to the series. How we see affects our relationship with Him and the way we live. Our view of Him is affected by how see Him and how we think He sees us. We must not assume that God is just like us or reduce Him to human terms.

    [Adapted from Chip Ingram’s book God: As He Longs for You to See Him.] We are starting a new series called – God: as He Longs for You to See Him. Why is there a need to see God rightly?

    Many people boast about their wisdom, might, or riches, but Jeremiah shares in this message the only true reason to glory. If you want to glory in anything, glory in God and proclaim His power throughout the world.

    Jeremiah 9:23-24 Intro: Jeremiah was a young priest denouncing the practice of worshiping images. Jeremiah gave reason to worship the true God, His creative power and providential care. Although Jeremiah's message was strong and his faith deep in God, the people would reject his ...read more

    What God Hates

     | 9,112 views

    God hates when we misuse the body He has given us for sinful purposes. Why? Because God hates sin.

    The words hate and God do not seem to go together. Yet, the writer of Proverbs clearly declares that God hates something. What is it? Our initial instinct would be to suggest the terrible two: murder and adultery. Others would suggest drunkenness or debauchery. Not so, according to the writer of ...read more

    God's Call To The Poor Series

     | 11,346 views

    Poor Christians are special people to God. He saves each of us on the basis of the work of Christ on the cross & not because of anything that we are or have. But the poor are more receptive to the gospel message therefore they seem favored by God.

    JAMES 2:5-7 GOD’S CALL TO THE POOR [1 Corinthians 1:26-27] Preferential treatment of the rich is wrong. James makes his case that biased judgment is wrong through four rhetorical questions he will ask, expecting an affirmative answer. Those who have entered into a faith relationship with Jesus ...read more

    "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." We have to completely give ourselves to God because we belong to him. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    The Christian faith is different from any other religion in the world. This was true in the ancient near east and it is as true today as it was then. Being unique doesn't necessarily make something right. What is it that makes Yahweh the one true God and different from the rest?
