    613 Commandments Series

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Oct 16, 2021
     | 1,376 views

    How should a Christian approach the Hebrew scriptures? The number of commandments in the Old Testament is usually given as 613. That’s near enough for our discussion. Let’s look at some of them in light of Paul's instructions about the spirit of the law.

    It takes great effort to build up (edify) believers with the Word of God, both on the part of those who teach and those who learn. But it is worth it.

    Worth the Effort (Acts 20:1-12) 1, This week, I watched part of a White Sox baseball game from two weeks agon on youtube. It was nice to be able to fast forward and see the more interesting moments. Which brings on a joke. 2. Have you heard about the first baseball game in the Bible? In the ...read more

    The first 2 letters of the GOSPEL are "GO"! Let’s go INVITE them, let’s go INSTRUCT them, let’s go INSPIRE them, and let’s go INVOLVE them. Link included to formatted text, audio, and PowerPoint Presentation.

    It’s Go Time! Luke 14:16-23 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/GoTime.html I thought about titling this message “It’s Time to Go” but I was afraid you’d get up and leave. But one thing is for sure: We have reached a great crossroads as a church…we have come to the STOP sign and paused for the cause. ...read more

    Does Living The Life Of Faith Matter? Series

    Contributed by Todd Brock on Nov 13, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,388 views

    Living a life of faith really does matter. It matters to our family. I believe how we live has eternal significance! God would not have written down so many instructions for us to live a life of faith if it really didn’t matter!

    Introduction: Where have we been so far? April 13, Hebrews 10:19-22 – We found that our ability and the drive to live faithfully was provided by the cross of Jesus. Through the sacrifice of Jesus and his place as our High Priest we have been called to be children of God and therefore are called ...read more

    On Being Hospitable Series

    Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Jun 19, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 10,506 views

    Part II of the Four-Part Vision: God instructs his people to practice hospitality. What does this mean as we receive guests in our congregations? Are we ill-prepared to welcome our guests? Or do we receive them as the blessing and gift that God intended?

    Congregations are families. The longer that they are together, usually the harder it is to let other people become part of the inner circle of the church. And yet, we know that – just as we are to be hospitable as families – we are also called to be hospitable as groups of believers. The writer ...read more

    When You Pray

    Contributed by H.b. Charles Jr. on Jan 16, 2012
    based on 9 ratings
     | 29,130 views

    "When You Pray" is an exposition of Matthew 6:5-8. In this passage, Jesus tells us what not to do when we pray. His instruction can be summarized with two prohibitions: (1) Do not pray like the hypocrites. And (2) do not pray like the Gentiles.

    WHEN YOU PRAY Matthew 6:5-8 There is a principle of Bible interpretation called the principle of repeated mention. It means that the repeated things in scripture are usually the emphasized things. This principle leads us to the theme of our text. Verse 5 begins, “And when you pray.” Verse 6 ...read more

    Jesus Teaching At The Temple Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Jul 9, 2016
     | 6,366 views

    Jesus is not asking the Jews to become expert judges of one another– far from it. He is instructing them (and us) to know who it is we should worship; and when we worship, to do so properly without our own views inserted.

    Jesus Teaching at the Temple John 7:1-24 Introduction - The gospel of John screams of the faith that we should have in Christ -- It is the clearest example of living life FOR the one who redeemed you and I - Today we will see two different stories played out before us: -- The first deals ...read more

    Lesson 8: For Their Continued Growth Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 23, 2018
     | 5,007 views

    God should be recognized in even the simplest affairs of life―didn’t Paul instruct believers to, “Pray about everything”? It was never God’s intention for man to direct his own steps; and only those journeys where God is the pilot are truly prosperous.

    Principles For Healthy Relationships With Others Series

    Contributed by Kerry Tilley on Feb 23, 2019
     | 6,437 views

    As believers, we are instructed to develop healthy relationships with others, Christians and non-Christians. Our behavior towards one another is not to be confined just to those in our social circle, or those who have the same ideologies; our behavior to all people should be reflective of Christ.

    Consider the following principles for developing a healthy relationship with others. I. LOVE EVERYONE A. "A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’" (Matthew 22:39, NLT) B.

     | 2,413 views

    John’s letter contains instructions, warnings, assurances and promises; however, the greatest thing he does is to affirm Christians’ uniqueness in Jesus. John writes in such a way that the confidence of God’s children is affirmed. John has highlighted several confidence builders in his letter:

    We are a miracle of love! There are many things in life that cannot be explained apart from a loving creative God.

    The Old Testament prophets wrote of things to come and strained to look into those things to understand them; things for our instruction. The Holy Spirit moved them to write of Christ who would come. The grace of God is revealed and we look forward to the glorious hope to come.
