    Abraham Justified By Faith

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Mar 25, 2024
     | 563 views

    Paul proves through Scripture that Abraham was not justified by works.

    4:1 “What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh?” Let’s look at this verse, as all the others, one word at a time. “Then” is “therefore” in this text. Based on all Paul has told us about sin, righteousness, judgment – by the way, the three things Jesus said ...read more

    How do see yourself? Who determines your value? Psalms 139 assures each of us that we are fearfully and wonderfully made. Look at this extreme makeover, a more perfect you for 2022.

    Authentic Versus Counterfeit Faith (Ii) Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on May 27, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,012 views

    This message examines the qualities of saving faith as revealed in Romans 4:18-22. In this chapter, Paul uses Abraham's example to teach the kind of faith response to God that ultimately leads to eternal salvation. Hint: It is not easy believism.

    Intro A major theme in Romans 4 is faith. Paul is aggressively contending for justification by faith alone. The issue we are currently addressing is the kind of faith Paul has in mind when he uses the word. We know from James 2 that some forms of faith are dead and worthless. We know from Jesus’s ...read more

    One of the most important responsibilities as your pastor is to help you leave a legacy that lasts; to make your life count for something more than the possessions you accumulate; to live in such a way that this world is changed because you touched som

    Jokes: An elderly gentleman was having a great time at a senior citizen’s seminar when a young woman asked him what kind of plans he had for the future.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 657 views

    Being blessed is not about having a perfect life or material possessions. It’s about understanding our origin and purpose. It's about being seen by God and having our stories rewritten by Him.

    You know how people post #blessed on their Instagram pics? Like when they're sipping a fancy coffee or chilling on a beach vacation? Well, today we're gonna talk about what it really means to be blessed. Let's start with a little object lesson. I want you to think about a loaf of bread. It's pretty ...read more

    What It Means To Have Faith (2)

    Faith is persevering when you don’t feel like it, and trusting God even when you don’t get it.

    Faith is dependency on God. Faith is practical. We exercise faith by acting on what we believe. The FOUR Principles of Practical Faith (from Hebrews 11) (1) FAITH IS BELIEVING WHEN YOU DON’T SEE IT (Heb 11:1,7) • In a sense, you have to have faith that it is going to happen, FOR IT to happen. ...read more

    God gave the nation of Israel a sign of their commitment to him with circumcision. The people thought that the sign was their salvation. Not their relationship with God. Many who profess Christian faith do the same with baptism.
