    Walking In The Light, Or Stumbling?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 14, 2010
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,366 views

    We choose darkness, but could choose light in our morality and our language. To choose darkness is to injure ourselves and others.

    Takoma Park Baptist Church, Washington, DC January 25, 1987 For a number of years I have made it a habit to get up at five o’clock; yes, that’s five in the morning. I’ve made it my habit as a part of my set of personal disciplines, because I find that I can get at a number of ...read more

    Put Not Your Trust In Princes

    Although there is no "God party" in politics, and politics cannot bring us salvation, there are moral imperatives we must take to the booth.

    Labor Day Sept 1, 2008 The command of Jesus to stop worrying about the material needs of the morrow is a perfect message for Labor day. I mean that both in the sense of the celebration of those who work hard for a living–usually worrying about tomorrow in the process–and those who begin active ...read more

    Standing In The Gap

    Contributed by Danny Nance on Mar 21, 2008
    based on 26 ratings
     | 11,052 views

    Facing the election of 2008, the morality crisis of leaders (secular and religious), the need for intercessors, as seen in this text, is great among us.

    Standing in the Gap Ezekiel 22:23-31 Ministry takes on many faces, my friends. It can be as deep as sitting in an ICU waiting room, holding the hand of someone whose loved one has just died. It can be as simple as offering a glass of cold water to someone who is thirsty, or a word of good cheer ...read more

    Charity, Truth And Health Care Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Aug 9, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,714 views

    Charity in truth demands that we consider two moral criteria: justice and the common good. But truth must inform both.

    Monday of 19th Week in Course August 10, 2009 Caritas in Veritate “Die to yourself” is a phrase that is no more popular today than in the first century. Jesus showed the way to this manifestation of charity in truth, by living for others during his earthly existence, and by dying on the cross so ...read more

    Instructions For Living

    Contributed by Greg Hanson on Feb 19, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,231 views

    Three basics for living the Christian life from the Book of James - Be Teachable, Live a moral life, and embrace the Word of God.

    I’ve got to be honest with you -- I hate following instructions. If at all possible, I’d rather try to figure things out for myself than look at an instruction manual. I think it’s a guy thing. But it’s true. And it doesn’t really matter what it is. It can be setting the clock on the VCR, figuring ...read more

    Live As Children Of Light Series

    Contributed by Jim Luthy on Oct 30, 2002
    based on 45 ratings
     | 9,344 views

    A child of light concerns himself with conduct that is personally and morally fitting for those who are blessed and have Christ dwelling in them.

    In our study of the Apostle Paul’s letter to the church in Ephesus, we were first challenged to pursue understanding—we are blessed in the heavenly realms; we can know Christ more and more, and as we know him he will become for us our only prize, our greatest treasure; we are God’s completed work, ...read more

    Who Is Going To Follow God? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 12, 2022
     | 1,491 views

    King Ahaz provides a surprising contrast to the kingdom of Israel as we see a dramatic example of the limits of our traditional morality.

    IT'S OBVIOUS, RIGHT? “Good people” are more likely to follow God. - We have a traditional morality with “good people.” The respectable citizens are more likely to follow God. TWO EXAMPLES: 1. KING AHAZ HAD A GOOD HERITAGE BUT TERRIBLE BEHAVIOR. - 2 Chronicles 28:1-4, 16-25. - Came from a ...read more

    Emphasizes the importance of virtue, maintaining a good reputation, and upholding morality over material wealth, guided by God's wisdom and love.

    Welcome, dear friends and family. We gather here, in this place of peace and worship. A place we know well. A place we call home. Our hearts are open. Our spirits are ready. We're here to learn.

    Team Of The Shrewd

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Apr 1, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,818 views

    People of this world are shrewd in their secular dealings, and Christians can likewise be shrewd in their spiritual development, not at the expense of virtue but in pursuit of it.

    Yesterday morning, I went outside to cut the grass. I put on my jeans and a ratty old aloha shirt. I put on my yard work shoes, my hat and sunglasses, and my big yellow ear muffs. I climbed up on the tractor, pulled out of the garage. BOY, it was a beautiful day. I ride down to the end of the ...read more

     | 466 views

    In a world where shortcuts, self-interest, and moral compromise often seem to pave the way to success, following Jesus means choosing a different path.

    Title: Following Jesus on the High Road in a Low Road World Text: (Matt. 7:13-14) “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard ...read more

    The Word is full of "one anotherisms" leading to a spirit of unity and a bond of peace, but these must be rooted and grounded in the gospel lest they become mere moralism

    One Another TCF Sermon June 24, 2012 You occasionally read about churches or church members in various places who have battles over various things, some of which are important and worth debating, others clearly not.

    Follow And Serve The One Who Will Never Leave You

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 11, 2015
     | 7,302 views

    We must use the courage that a life in faith with God gives us to live a life that is more revolutionary than our secular world or any other non-Christian faith. God will give us the courage to work like army commandos.

    If I told you that religion is not the same as Christianity, would you be surprised? Religion is man's attempt to reach God. It focuses on our deeds. It is the broken cistern referred to in Jeremiah 2:4-13. Christianity is God's attempt to reach man. We are meant to be fully in relationship with ...read more

    Mirror, Mirror On The Wall; Do I Look Like Christ At All? James 1:19-25 Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 26, 2015
     | 8,886 views

    In this passage James speaks to us about "human" anger and the moral filth of the world. He then compares the Word of God to a spiritual mirror that we need to look into intently if we desire to be spiritually presentable to God.

    Today, we’ll be taking a look at James 1:19-25 James 1:19-25 “My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires. ...read more
