    Putting Things Before God

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 15, 2023
     | 1,987 views

    Jesus was tempted to exalt Himself in a way that was not right. Today we're going to talk a little bit about exalting ourselves above God or putting something else before God.

    If you don't toot your own horn, who will? Have you ever heard that before? Let's face it, we really enjoy those moments when good things happen to us. We feel good when we've accomplished something. And with those good experiences, we naturally want to tell others about it. ...read more

    What are we searching for in this age of seclusion? Is it God/Jesus, or is it something else to fill our time?

    Sermon- Searching outline - I noticed an article the other day that was asking if binge watching tv shows taking the place of Christ now. - I hadn’t really thought of it.

    Where Do You Put Your Trust? Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,684 views

    Keep yourself from idols because all of them will come to nothing. Don’t trust in something that’s going to fail you in the end. Remember that you have a better refuge, a kingdom that cannot be shaken. The LORD God alone is the shade in whom we may dwell, in whom we may put our trust.

    Where do you put your trust? Without any exaggeration at all, that’s the most important question of our life: Who to trust? What do you seek for the security, confidence, the peace and rest that you need? And this is the only right answer: ‘I trust in God. I wait on him. My faith is in the Lord ...read more

    How do we get Golden Calves in our live? By that I mean how do we get idols or things not worthy of our worship in our lives? Cause once they get in, they are difficult to get out!

    God transcends words. He is beyond language. We cannot reduce Him to our experience. God is unique and different from anything in this world. He is massive, boundless, beyond all imagining. God is His own category.

    I’d like to explain to you Who God is…but I can’t. Isaiah speaks of God as so massive, so far above us, that we can barely take in who He is. God surpasses human comprehension. Some people think they can put God “in a box”; that is, have Him fully figured out. How ...read more
