    Render To God The Things That Are God's

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 11, 2013
     | 12,003 views

    Jesus says, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's" (Matt 22:21). Most sermons on this verse deal with the first part of this verse, but what does the second part mean? What does it mean to render to God?

    MAIN TEXT: Matt 22:15-22 (parallels in Mark 12:13–17 and Luke 20:20–26) The Jews were desperately seeking to discredit Jesus, because within the context, He was speaking parables against them. They would stop at nothing to do so. Within the context of this verse, various groups ask Him ...read more

     | 2,702 views

    The law is God’s standard showing us our need for a Savior.

    1. Reading through this section of Romans, we might easily forget that Paul is pointing us to the wonderful grace of God. • One of the reasons is that many put the discussion in an EITHER/OR situation. • IT’S EITHER all grace and NO LAW. • OR ALL LAW and NO GRACE. • But Paul has taught us it’s ...read more

    "Love, God’s Way!”

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on May 18, 2022
     | 2,493 views

    We ask God the Holy Spirit to convict us of our sins of not loving as we have been loved, and then lead us to follow God’s command to love others.

    “What one word summarizes the Ten Commandments?” I think that the Bible’s answer to that question surprises many people. In the Scriptures God tells us that the one word that summarizes the Ten Commandments is “love.” But how can that be? Aren’t the Commandments a list of “dos” and “don’ts” or ...read more

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Dec 18, 2019
     | 4,356 views

    God has given us the greatest gift imaginable in Jesus -- it compels us to want to give a gift to him. The ultimate gift we can give is ourselves which we show by doing justly; loving mercy; and walking humbly with Him.

    1. I put a question on the church’s FB page: “What is one of your favorite Christmas memories?” Responses had to do with family and with gifts (Santa stories). 2. The coming of Jesus represents God’s ultimate gift to us (John 3:16-17) a. Response to receiving a gift is to give a gift in ...read more

     | 1,244 views

    When the Lord showed Himself to Moses on the mountain, He declared Himself to be a God of compassion and loving kindness–in Biblical language–forever.

    Tuesday of the 16th Week in Course Recently I heard a homily that really pricked my ears, and almost prompted me to jump up in the pew and object. The preacher said something like “the God of the OT is not One that I worship,” because in the Scriptures we read some pretty nasty stuff. Psalm 137 is ...read more

    To recompense means “to repay or to reward or to compensate.” The word Gmolah means to give payback. This name indicates that God will repay evil for evil and good for good. This name shows that God by His very nature is a God who repays.
