    The Virtue Of Patience (5 Of 10) Series

    Contributed by Jeff Armbrester on Feb 23, 2003
    based on 71 ratings
     | 11,911 views

    Patience is more than the ability to wait in line without getting frustrated. Patience is much deeper than waiting in the doctor’s office without getting irritated. Patience is an active endurance of opposition, not a passive resignation.

    Baptized: "for" Or "because" Of Remission? Series

    To clarify that the preposition “for” in the phrase:” for the remission of sins" does not mean "because." The Greek word "eis" means “for, into, unto, or toward” in all reputable Greek-English New Testament Interlinear. Denying this truth is aligning your faith with error.

    INTRODUCTION Outline. 1. For The Remission of Sins Remarks. 1. In this lesson today, we will be discussing the prepositional phrase: “For the remission of sins." This is a revision of the ninth lesson in the sermon-series entitled: "Re-digging in Old Wells." There will be many others ...read more

    Jacob's blessing of his sons provides an opportunity for hearers to think about their legacy. A legacy is built by choices. Our legacy does not control us. In Christ, we create a new legacy.

    SHAPING YOUR LEGACY—Genesis 49 Have you thought about what kind of legacy you will leave for your descendants? I’m not talking about wealth or property, but about the impact we have on the lives of others. We have all inherited a legacy. (Note to preacher: Personalize this!) I am a cheap ...read more

    Sometimes all we know are "NO’s". We learn to live within the limis of can-not, must-not, will-not, and have-not. We really need a "YES"! Here’s the best YES of all.

    He will faithfully forgive us when we ask. But if when Nero demands we drop the incense in prayer to the emperor, if we deny Christ is Lord, then He must deny us.

    Thursday of 9th Week in Course 2018 Reformation/Revolution St. Paul wrote the second letter to bishop Timothy during his final imprisonment.
