    This lesson deals with the fruit of the Spirit, Self-control, and practical suggestions of how it positively empacts the Christian’s life.

    Charles W. Holt email: cholt@gt.rr.com SELF-CONTROL “But the fruit of the Spirit is . . . self-control” (Gal. 5:23 NKJV). One can easily get the impression--based upon news describing social/cultural events--that self-control ranks low on the “must do” list of today’s society. One might ...read more

    The second in a series on the 10 Commandments dealing with how the human craving to be in control translates to making graven images, idolatry, worshiping the work of our hands.

    One of the Christmas cards I got this year wasn’t really a Christmas card. It wasn’t even a Hannukah card. It was a Solstice card. It came from an old friend of mine named Sally who sang soprano in my medieval chamber vocals ensemble and taught me Middle Eastern dancing. (That’s belly dancing, to ...read more

    A look at Daniel chapter 2 where we examine some of the Christian myths about Daniel’s propechies, learn that God is in control and that God answers prayer.

    In a cartoon, a man was phoning his pastor during a crisis. With a fraught look, the man asks the minister: "My wife has left me, my kids are on drugs, and my life is falling apart. Can you explain to me the difference between amillennialism, postmillennialism, and premillennialism?" We have and ...read more

    Learning self control is about how your mind learns to rule your body, your passions, your hungers and your appetites.

    SE110302 CHARACTER UNDER CONSTRUCTION 1 Self-Control INTRO: Who said the following?: "With all the power that a President has, the most important thing to bear in mind is this: You must not give power to a man unless, above everything else, he has character.

    Do you ever look at the things that happen in your life and the things that are going on the world around us and feel like everything is out of control? Regardless how chaotic things may appear understand that God is on His throne and He is in control.

    God Is In Control Isaiah 45:6-7 Do you ever look at the things that happen in your life and the things that are going on the world around us and feel like everything is out of control? Questions arise. Why do things happen the way they do? Why do bad things happen to good people? Is everything ...read more

    Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them into something good in our lives.

    Matthew 4 God is in Control (4:1) 1. Jesus “was led up by the Spirit…” - God is in control here. - This was all apart of God’s plan. - God doesn’t transform trials into good. - Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them ...read more

    self-control - is at the heart of our faithful walk before God and people. We lose it in small ways which leads to bigger problems

    Respectable Sins – Self-Control How often have you had someone say to you ‘He who is without sin cast the first stone?’ Or maybe you have someone say to you ‘Judge not lest you be judged?’ I reckon they must two verses which are most often taken out of their context and misapplied. The second ...read more

    Sometimes it seems like we’re on a run away rollercoaster, in times like these we need to be reminded that (God is still in Control).

    I want to start this message by prophesying to somebody: God is in control, it doesn’t matter what is happening in the economy, and it doesn’t matter what is happening on a political level, or whose in the white house. It doesn’t matter what they do to social security, healthcare, or anything ...read more

    We as humans have a hard time giving up control of anything, but in order to find the abundant life Jesus offers, we must cede authority of our lives to Him, even if that means going into choppy waters.

    We began last time by looking at Jesus as He came down from giving the Sermon on the Mount. He begins to demonstrate that it isn’t all talk—that He really is the coming King and controls His creation, both the visible and invisible. We see Him first approached by two people who really have no ...read more

    The struggle for self-control goes on entirely inside an individual, but the results of self-control, or lack of it, show up entirely on the outside of a person.

    “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22-23) It’s probably fitting that “self-control” is the last fruit of the Spirit in our nine week study. It may be the most ...read more

    A correction of a much misquoted verse: our hope is built on God, not fatalism.

    GOD IS IN CONTROL ROMANS 8:28 A man’s wife dies, leaving him with three little children to care for. Although he is nor bitter, he is lonely and confused. Perhaps some of his friends try to comfort him by saying, "You know, it all works out for the best." Try as he might, he cannot bring ...read more

    FCF: God is in control. If things seem out of control, maybe it is because somebody else thinks they’re able to take God’s place.

    We’re going to begin looking at Daniel 2 for the next three weeks, because it does a wonderful job of teaching us something so fundamental: How to talk to God. As Christians, each and every one of us is blessed with direct line to God himself. It’s almost magical to think about that fact. But I ...read more

    Though in captivity Daniel’s story is a clarion call to us to THRIVE in the challenges of our cultural setting, and in so doing draw attention to our sovereign God.

    Daniel is an inspiring book that brings both a challenge and hope to all those who recognize that we are living in an environment that is alien to the lives we have been called to. This was Daniel’s experience. The book records the experiences of 4 Hebrew men taken into captivity by an evil ...read more

    No matter what man may do, God is still in charge and WILL have the last say.

    God is in Control!

It makes you feel kind of discouraged about the future of ...read more
