     | 824 views

    The Church must be unwilling to compromise on the Bible's truths.

    Good evening. You are the blessed of the Lord, and I am so glad to see you tonight. Would you please turn to Second Timothy chapter four? That’s where we’re going to start. I’ve been thinking about the state of the Church and a lot of what we see unfolding today is because of the Church, and ...read more

    We continue our walk with Jacob as he meets Esau. Jacob shows us a great deal of wise stewardship in this chapter. Jacob follows through and returns home in obedience to God.

    Returning to Our Proper Place in God Jacob’s Reunion with Esau Jacob’s Return in obedience to God’s Promised Land I noticed in the Bristol Bay Times this week that a serviceman and his family were able to visit Dillingham. Imagine he had been gone 13 years. I know that when Gloria and I leave ...read more

    Our church, like many churches, is in need of some repair much like the walls of Jerusalem. Nehemiah’s rebuilding began with reliance on God, repentance from sin, and risking obedience.

    January 4, 2004 Nehemiah 1 “The state of the church” INTRODUCTION It’s a new year. And that means that it is time for evaluation. One of the things that gets evaluated the most at the beginning of the new year is a person’s weight. My family and I just got back Friday from my ...read more

    I don’t know if you realize it or not, but the life of Samson parallels that of the United States. The events of last week once again demonstrate the need for us to be obedient unto death.

    Samson And The American Story Intro. The events of Tuesday morning are events that will be with me the rest of my life. The pain in peoples eyes. The not knowing where their loved ones were or what happened to them. The un imaginable destruction and loss of live. The questions like why did ...read more

    Dreaming Big!

     | 8,517 views

    Through out the 66 books of the Bible we read time and time again stories that increase and Stretch our faith as we become obedient. In return we begin to dream big!

    Dreaming Big! Text: Luke 5: 1-4 Life is full of lessons; lessons come several ways. Object lessons seem to be very effective in my opinion. Jesus is teaching the multitudes probably a message on trust or faith, and then Jesus spots Peter and the other disciples, so He decides ...read more

    Dead Mules Don't Work

    based on 11 ratings
     | 4,699 views

    Too many Christians settle for being forgiven and fail to recognize that dead sinners do not disobey God. We can live in obedience because we are alive to God and dead to sin.

    My purpose is to be the Holy Spirit’s second witness calling God’s people in my care to surrender their lives to Jesus and to live in obedience to him. Response Goal: Individuals prompted by the Holy Spirit will surrender their lives to God in prayer – at the altar rail if they want to prayer ...read more

    How to prepare for a miracle? Have a Vision to see it, be Obedient to go for it, ask for Faith to believe it, and stir up the Courage to do it by being a part of His plan for you.

    How to prepare for a miracle? Mark 6:34-44 How to prepare for a miracle? Notice I did not ask a question like this: “How to ASK for a miracle?” Asking God for a miracle may indicate a lack of faith. Our faith should not have to survive with a regular supply of the miraculous. There are times when ...read more

    Second in a Christmas series, this describes (1) His Eternal Glory before coming to Earth, (2) His Extensive Limitations He took on and (3) His Exhaltation as a result of being obedient.

    Intro: John 3:16 taught us that the Meaning of Christmas is LOVE...God’s Love. Let us now focus on the METHOD of Christmas: How did God demonstrate His great love for us? To answer that, we turn to Philippians 2:5-11, and discover: I. The ETERNAL GLORY He had before coming to Earth (Phil ...read more

    The Key To Righteous Living

    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,450 views

    Jesus came not to destroy the law, but to keep and fulfill it. We also are required to be obedient to the law - not indeed as a means of salvation (which it could never be) - but as an expression of our love and service.

    THE KEY TO RIGHTEOUS LIVING. Matthew 5:17-20. 1. Jesus’ statement is emphatic:- “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill” (Matthew 5:17). The righteousness of God is the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the end of the law, the one to whom ...read more

     | 52,275 views

    God's grace as the avenue of salvation is sometimes seen as being in conflict with obedience of the believer as a requirement, without which salvation cannot be obtained. Which is it, or is it a combination? Can this dichotomy be satisfactorily resolved?

    Freedom to truly live comes only through proper self-control is the message of the 10 Commandments. The purpose of God’s law is deliverance not domination. Obedience does not subjugate; it saves and delivers.

     | 11,565 views

    Zechariah announces the divine blessing of faithful obedience to be realized during that time & in full during the future Messianic Age. At that time God's people will rejoice with great joy, gladness & experience popularity.

    ZECHARIAH 8: 18-23 WHEN FASTING BECOMES FEASTING In the previous chapter Zechariah proclaimed to the people the mere externals and empty ritualism in their observance of the fasts as well as pointing out to them the sins and transgression which caused their suffering (7:1-7).

     | 3,529 views

    I’m calling God’s people in my care to develop a faith in Jesus that goes beyond mental assent (belief) to include emotional reliance (trust) and active obedience (loyalty).

    Introduction: The Bible tells us that "without faith it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6). The Bible says, "The righteous will live by faith" (Romans 1:17). That makes me think that faith is very important -- even vital. But what is faith? The Bible commands us to "stand firm in the ...read more
