    If The Law Can’t Save Us, What’s The Point Of Having It? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 20, 2014
     | 4,863 views

    A look at how the Law is not there to get us to God, but to show us how far we are from Him.

    THE POINT OF THE LAW: The Law doesn’t get us closer to God; it helps us understand how far from Him we are. - 1 Timothy 1:7-8. - Romans 3:20. - The initial thought about the Law would seem to be: it’s to get us to God, therefore it’s for the righteous. - The reality is that ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 20, 2014
     | 3,423 views

    A look at our how our judgment is partially dependent on how much we knew, whether we're a Christian or non-Christian.

    MORE THAN HEARING: How much we’ve heard impacts how much God expects of us. - 1 Timothy 1:13. - Verse 13 brings out an interesting phrase: “because I acted in ignorance and unbelief.” - Paul there acknowledges that part of God’s great mercy to him was prefaced on his lack ...read more

    Why Did Jesus Tell People To Stay Quiet About The Miracles?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 25, 2014
     | 10,966 views

    It's a curious thing: Jesus regularly instructed people to keep quiet about the miracle He'd done for them. This passage provides insight into why Jesus did that.

    A LINGERING QUESTION: Why did Jesus tell people to stay quiet about the miracles? - Matthew 9:31. - This is something that happens repeatedly throughout the gospels: Jesus does a miracle and then instructs the healed not to share what happened. - It’s hard to understand: wouldn’t you ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 26, 2014
     | 4,936 views

    A look at the compassion that Jesus felt toward the lost and how we can move to be more like Him.

    WHAT WAS JESUS' PRIMARY EMOTION TOWARD THE LOST? It was compassion. - Matthew 9:36. -Matthew 9:13; Matthew 9:36; Matthew 12:7; Matthew 14:14; Matthew 15:32; Matthew 18:27; Matthew 20:34. - Jesus’ primary emotion toward the lost was compassion. - Look at how often it comes up just in ...read more

    What Is The Mistake That Leads Toward The Unforgiveable Sin?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 5, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,696 views

    A look at the unforgiveable sin. I think the distinction that I share about why criticism of Jesus is acceptable but of the Holy Spirit is not will be helpful in getting to the heart of what Jesus is trying to convey.

    WHAT IS THE "UNFORGIVEABLE SIN" EXACTLY? It seems to be seeing consistently clear evidence of the Spirit’s movement and attributing it to Satan. - Luke 12:10. - The passage in Luke presents the shortest version of this saying in the gospels. The versions in Matthew 12:22-32 and Mark ...read more

    The Harsh Consequence Of A Private Faith

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 6, 2014
     | 3,605 views

    A look at why we need to be public in our belief and three things to help embolden our faith.

    BELIEVING ON THE INSIDE: If what’s on the inside is real, it will make it out. - Luke 12:8-9. - Many people have the idea that as long as I have “Jesus in my heart” then I’m ok. - And often implicit with that is the idea that my faith can be a private thing. It’s ...read more

    An Overlooked Key First Step Toward Spiritual Harvest

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 6, 2014
     | 4,815 views

    A look at the evangelism prayer that Jesus told us to pray (but we don't) as well as five of the reasons we need this prayer.

    THE SIMPLE, OBVIOUS, PATHETIC, MYSTIFYING TRUTH: We do not pray this prayer. - Matthew 9:38. - I do not have an explanation for this. - It’s not hard to do. It’s not hard to understand. It’s not controversial. Yet it’s rare that any of us pray this prayer at all. ...read more

    Why Did Jesus Say He’s Not A Judge?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 18, 2014
     | 3,415 views

    A look at two short verses where Jesus says He wasn't appointed a judge. Why did He say that? This leads us to a larger discussion of the dangers of coming to Jesus with a pre-existing agenda.

    A CONFUSING STATEMENT: Why does Jesus say He’s not a judge? - Luke 12:13. - This is an odd statement by Jesus. Why does He say that He was not appointed a judge between them? - It’s important to read the full sentence. Jesus doesn’t say, “I am not a judge” or ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 19, 2014

    A look at three of the ways that we can be "rich toward God" by using our money wisely.

    A MONEY PROBLEM: What you store up for yourself gets left behind. - Luke 12:20-21a. - The end of verse 20 notes the rich fool can’t take it with him. That very night his death is coming and then someone else will get what he’s built up. Everything that he has is left on this ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,056 views

    An extensive study on this question, more fitting for a Wednesday evening Bible study.

    WILL CHRISTIANS BE JUDGED? 1. Christians will be judged by Christ. - Romans 14:10-12; 1 Corinthians 3:11-15; 1 Corinthians 4:5 (Christ will be judging); 2 Corinthians 5:10. 2. This is also called the Bema Judgment. - Greek word translated in English as “judgment seat.” - Romans ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,185 views

    This sermon unpacks the phrase "the body of Christ" with a look at how God intends to great things through His people.

    WHAT DOES IT MEAN THAT WE ARE "THE BODY OF CHRIST"? Think of all that Jesus did and consider that we are now “His body.” - 1 Corinthians 12:27. - Picture in your mind’s eye Jesus walking around Palestine. See Him reaching out with a compassionate hand. See Him walking among ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 6, 2014

    A basic explanation of what spiritual gifts are and how to find your's.

    A NAGGING DOUBT: “What do I have to offer in serving God?” - Many believers feel that they have nothing to offer. - Others are just lazy. WHAT IS A SPIRITUAL GIFT? A divinely-chosen ability for divinely-empowered service. - 1 Corinthians 12:1, 5-7. a. The phrase “spiritual ...read more

    The Spirit’s Plan For A Church Of Impact Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 11, 2014
     | 3,886 views

    A look at how "member" is never used in the Bible to mean "a name on a roll," but rather "a part of the body."

    [Drama: The drama: "The Orchestra." There's a band director and three musicians. Director talks to each member one at a time and each says that they're ready, but then says they have one little problem. First one. At the piano. "Ready, but my right hand isn't working right." Director asks shocked ...read more

    Will What A Christian Has Done Be Judged Publicly Before Everyone?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 17, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,460 views

    For the Christian, will our sins "be shown on a big screen for everyone to see"? I argue that while we are forgiven and saved by grace, our sins will be brought up at the Bema Judgment because they impact our fruitfulness.

    The Big Screen Question: Will what a Christian has done (including their sins) be judged publicly on a big screen? - John MacArthur says no. He says that our sins will not be mentioned at all. I disagree. - The issue, of course, is not the big screen, but rather whether in the process of being ...read more
