    Avoiding False Teachers

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Oct 1, 2024
     | 802 views

    As we continue in our series on Jesus' letters to the seven churches, we find ourselves looking at the words Jesus has to say to the church in Thyatira, how they have some good things, but they tolerate false teachings in the church.

    Good morning, beloved congregation! It's a joy to be here with you, standing on the solid ground of God's truth, ready to open His Word together. We are not here by accident, but by divine appointment. And we are not here to hear the words of a man, but to hear from the God who fashioned ...read more

    NASB, notes from biblegateway.com

    The Disciple’s Integrity – Heart over Habit Focus: First two contrasts—anger (murder of the heart) and lust (adultery of the heart) Why this section: These two sins erode unit cohesion and personal holiness.

    Jesus On Adultery And Lust

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 10, 2024
     | 1,400 views

    Jesus teaches on lust. It isn't something preachers generally like to speak about but it's really important. Jesus shows how God's commandment on adultery needs to be practised and he tells us how we can do it.

    Western society is completely comfortable talking about sex. Most people think a lot about sex. Especially men. The Bible talks a lot about sex too. Most preachers, however, do not like to talk about sex. When preachers preach on the Sermon on the Mount, they talk about the Beatitudes. There ...read more

    This message continues the series on the Sermon on the Mount and the section dealing with the redefining of the Law by Jesus. This particular message looks at the issue of adultery

    THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT YOU HAVE HEARD IT SAID – ADULTERY MATTHEW 5:27–30 “YOU HAVE HEARD THAT IT WAS SAID, ‘DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY.’ 28BUT I TELL YOU THAT ANYONE WHO LOOKS AT A WOMAN LUSTFULLY HAS ALREADY COMMITTED ADULTERY WITH HER IN HIS HEART. 29IF YOUR RIGHT EYE CAUSES YOU TO SIN, GOUGE IT ...read more

    Legal Counsel For Christians Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 4, 2023

     | 2,110 views

    Jesus provides counsel on domestic disputes, sex crimes, adultery and divorce; and He even says something that can be applied to swearing on the Bible in a court of law. Jesus, being part of the court of heaven, knows about legal matters!

    I have entitled our message for this morning, “Legal Counsel for Christians.” You may not realize it, but the Bible is full of courtroom imagery. The most noteworthy example is the great white throne of judgement seen in the book of Revelation (20:11-15). Did you know that Jesus will be there ...read more

    The Dangers Of Pornography: A Biblical Perspective

    Let’s discuss a topic that has permeated our modern society and has devastating effects on the lives of believers - pornography. It is important for us to understand the dangers associated with this pervasive issue.

    1. Guarding Our Hearts: Proverbs 4:23 states, "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." Engaging in pornography exposes our hearts to impurity and corrupts our thought life, leading to destructive behaviors and attitudes. 2. Sexual Purity: Hebrews 13:4 ...read more

    Masturbation, The Spiritual Battle Against The Flesh

    Contributed by Robert Irvine on May 24, 2024
     | 3,772 views

    Some say that the Bible does not mention masturbation or self-gratification or “solo sex,” as it’s sometimes called. They say that it is silent on the subject and that the Bible does not state whether or not masturbation is a sin.

    I was asked about masturbation and what I thought of it. He then offered up, “Why is masturbation classed as a sin?” “I’m on Christian sites where people are saying that it’s all wrong and that you shouldn’t being stuff like that but surely God wants us to love either with a partner or ourself.” ...read more

    In this sixth beatitude, we must understand the standard Jesus is setting with the with the phrase "pure in heart.". If we set the standard too low, we fail to enter into the fullness of the blessing. If we set it too high we forsake the pursuit as futile.

    Intro We are studying the Beatitudes with an interest in how to position ourselves for revival. What attitudes of heart are conducive to experiencing more of God’s grace and participating in what he is doing. The Beatitudes provide insight for participating in the kingdom of God because this is the ...read more

    There is no greater relationship as an image in our relationship to God than the marital relationship and that is where Jesus takes us today in his sermon:

    Epiphany 6. In His sermon on the mount, Jesus expounds on murder, adultery, and lying. He makes it clear that these sins are significant, that they reach, infect, and pervade us all, so that there is no righteousness in us, and our righteousness must be found in Him.

    Matthew 5:21-37 Epiphany 6 A J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen.
