    30th Sunday in Course 2023 In today’s Gospel, Jesus continues His long-running controversy with the Jewish leadership, in this case the masters of case law, the Pharisees.

    Exceptional

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Dec 12, 2022
     | 1,906 views

    Being "exceptional" is not superiority, it is being the exception to the rule.

    I recently read the following quote. I don’t know who said it, but I thought it fit today’s lesson, which I have entitled “Exceptional.” Here's the quote: "It is, I think, pertinent to recall that the achievement of the Christians of the first century was due to the fact that their faith ...read more

    Belonging To Another Series

     | 4,873 views

    We can try to live by a code of rules or we can live by a relationship. We could put it this way: True release comes from a relationship with Jesus, not from rules.

    Belonging to Another Romans 7:1-6 1 Do you not know, brothers-- for I am speaking to men who know the law-- that the law has authority over a man only as long as he lives? 2 For example, by law a married woman is bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies, she is ...read more

    Contributed by Eugene Morell on Oct 16, 2012
     | 5,582 views

    This sermon looks at what is called holiness but is really just a culture. Holiness is not about rules and regulations.

    Is Holiness a Culture thing or a Lifestyle? 1 Peter 1:13-25. Quite a while ago I began a message where I told you about a young lady who went to a pastor she had never met before to talk with him about a problem concerning her wedding.

     | 6,952 views

    To establish that no denomination; its beliefs; or its baptismal practices are from heaven; they have their origins from men. However so sincere they might have been, there can be no salvation in any man-made institutions or in their religious practices.

    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,274 views

    The 1st century Christians rejected the use of manmade instruments of music in their worship to God. The reason they did so was the same reason why they rejected animal sacrifices and other elements of the old law. This sermon examines this in detail.

    Why New Testament Christians Reject the Use of Mechanical Instruments of Music There’s a general attitude building among the Lord’s church about mechanical instruments of music that tends to be a bit fuzzy. We are seeing a number of large congregations that are making a switch to ...read more

    Live By God’s Promise! Series

     | 2,413 views

    The story of Hagar and the birth of Ishmael teaches us about what happens when we stop waiting on God. Our man-made plans will go astray. We need to seek God in all that we do.

    Time flies when you are having fun. Time does not fly when you are waiting on God’s promise. When you are waiting on God weeks can seem like years. Waiting on God can be one of the most challenging times. The temptation to step in and take control of the circumstances is great. It also causes ...read more

    Instead of living life by all the "rules" why not live life by the Spirit?

    February 3, 2002 17You must accept whatever situation the Lord has put you in, and continue on as you were when God first called you. This is my rule for all the churches. 18For instance, a man who was circumcised before he became a believer should not try to reverse it. And the man who was ...read more
