    #24 in series. Christians in today’s sexually permissive society often face the challenge of how to deal with those accused of a sexual sin. It feels as if we are given the choice of either being too hard on sinners or too soft on sin.

    A Study of the Book of John “That You May Believe” Sermon # 24 “How To Hate Sin and Love Sinners” John 8:1-11 Our story begins early one morning when a crowd had gathered in the temple courts to hear Jesus teach (8:2). “Now ...read more

    God has a wonderful end in mind for His people. Long ago He purposed the redemption, righteousness, & restoration of the people of Zion. They may anger Him by their sin & hard heartedness, but God stands ready to save & make them holy.

    In the same way Jesus checked out the heart of Peter, He speaks to us to check us out. While we are hard on Peter for the denial, the personal question is how many times & in what ways have we denied Jesus?

    “Do You Love Me More Than These?” John 21:15-17 • Nelson Price is right on point when he makes this statement, “JESUS CHRIST often endures our embarrassing abuse, denial, and betrayal only to come back compassionately to restore us to an even more meaningful love ...read more

    Evil

    Are we able to defend the faith taught in the Scriptures when a non-believer challenges us on the hard issues? What do we say, how do we respond when asked why the Lord allows evil and the resulting suffering?

    Deuteronomy 30:19-20a “This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. “Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold ...read more

    This is a hard lesson to learn. No one likes to wait. We want what we want from God when we want it. However, it is in our times of loneliness – loss- pain - sorrow - that we are driven to the very heart of God.

    What is the call of Christ? Is it a mysterious thing that only happens to select people? Is it something you have to work hard to get and discover? We will discover the answers to these questions and more in today’s message titled, “A Fisherman’s Call.

    Sin Is A Disgrace To Any People

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,291 views

    Now it would seem ridiculous to ignore sin & Satan completely, so they don’t. But what God calls sin in the Bible isn’t necessarily what they consider to be sin. And the idea of a real Satan is hard for some to accept.

    Do you want to be truly wise? Then be worthy like a mom. Work hard like a mom. Live well like a mom, and find honor like a mom. To put it simply: Trust and obey your mother’s God.

    Some time ago, Peg Beukema of Nyack, New York, collected the responses of several elementary school children to some questions about moms. I got a kick out of reading them this last week, and I thought you’d enjoy them too, especially on this Mother’s Day. Why did God make mothers? ...read more

    Stewards Of The Mysteries

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Aug 14, 2016

    Paul doesn’t describe himself as a clergyman. He describes himself as servant and steward. The servant role indicated hard lowly work. The steward role was carefully administering the Gospel mystery: God in Christ reconciling the world to Himself

    Real Men Do Cry

    The Apostle Paul is renowned for being a woman-hating, doctrine-making, emotionless, rock hard, ice cold; Gospel preaching machine, but in reality he was a man who was never very far away from a good cry for the sake of the Gospel.

    In our reading this morning the Apostle Paul is writing to the church he had planted in Philippi and he says, ‘Join together in following my example, brothers and sisters, and just as you have us as a model, keep your eyes on those who live as we do. For, as I have often told you before and now ...read more

    All of us will go through the pit at some point. All of us will at some point go through hard times. We will go through the valley. But for every pit, for every valley, there IS a way out that leads to the very promise of God!

    Here are things to remember when you get in the pit. First, intolerance of your condition creates your future. Say that with me. Intolerance of your condition creates your future. The problem is some start looking for ways to get accustomed to the pit. You read books on how to adjust to darkness. ...read more
