We have seen that we need to add to our faith : • VIRTUE - We need virtue because virtue is what sets the boundaries of what WE DO and DO NOT DO! • KNOWLEDGE - We need knowledge of WHO HE IS and WHAT HE IS LIKE if we are going to become like Him. After he tells us to add virtue and knowledge, he ...read more

Someone said, “Fellowship is like fellows in a ship!” Then they said, “The only thing wrong with fellowship is that there are not enough fellows in the ship.”

We are to shine like lights in a shadowy world. And to do that, we may have to be offered up for the sake of others.
In light of everything that Christ was willing to do for them, Philippians 2:12-18 explains how Christians ought to live.

What will we find if we truly allow God to search our hearts? Will we like what we see?
(1, 23-24) God cannot lie, God cannot die, and God cannot save an unwilling soul. In verses 1-7: There are times that we do not let some people become more totally acquainted with us. We are apprehensive they will find something about us that they do not care for. In any case, God has a deep ...read more
Scripture: Psalm 139:1-24
We will look at how an entire city is going to come to earth. Jerusalem will be the center and what will our future home be like?
No matter who we are, the word home conjures up fond memories for many of us. We may think of a mother, a brother, or grandchild and other loved ones bring us joy. We might think of Christmas, a vacation, or many other things when we reminisce of great things. The warmest feelings inside usually ...read more

Just like a good shepherd who leads his sheep to rest, God will give us rest and provide for us.

Do we, like ancient Israel, have a tendency to forget God? Let's look at Deuteronomy 8.

What was an important thing to remember all their lives? Is it also important for us? Be careful to observe every command that I’m ...read more

Paul now shifts to a major misunderstanding about grace and explains what living out this salvation should look like.
A LOOPHOLE? Can we just keep sinning and use grace as an excuse? - Romans 6:1-2. a. Grace is the means by which salvation comes to us, but grace is easily misunderstood. - v. 1. - We closed out with grace last week. It’s the reality that we cannot earn our salvation but we receive it as a free ...read more

The questions push people to believe what they know: God is great; problems (and human empires like Babylon) are small.
Our passage today is built around a series of questions. You might find these questions comically easy to answer. Parts of this might feel a bit like Sunday school when you were very little. But work with me this morning. Multiple times, I'm going to ask you the question the prophet asks. ...read more
