     | 3,741 views

    What is it about the idea of God that makes many people uncomfortable? The idea of God does make many people feel that way, you know. For a country that has "In God We Trust" on its money, we are pretty confused about what kind of God we trust.

    James teaches that biblical faith is not expressed in words only or just in one’s mind, but that it must be expressed in the actual doing and obeying what God and Christ command us to do.

    INTRODUCTION 1. Open your bibles to James 2:18-26. 2. In our last lesson we discussed two different kinds of faith, from James 2:14-17.

    Even with all that we have in America, I want to show you why it is still important to ask God to provide our daily needs. When we ask God for something, we are acknowledging that He is the source of what we need and that He owns everything.

    Purpose: To explain the importance of asking God to supply our daily needs. Aim: I want the listeners to see how dependent they are on God for everything. INTRODUCTION: Today we are looking at the first of three requests for personal needs in what we call the Lord's Prayer. The first personal ...read more

The Rich young ruler was a very good man, he had kept all of the ...read more

    Sin is inevitable and needs to be identified as the filth that is in all of us, and it needs to be acknowledged in the Christian community. But God loves us and cares for us and is in the blood of Christ cleaning us.

    No matter how good it is, it has to be cleaned up. Isn’t that always the case? No matter how good anything is, it has to be cleaned up. You get a new suit of clothes, you wear it a few times -- maybe only one time, in this heat -- and before you know it, it has to go off to the dry cleaners. No ...read more
