    How Giving Works (Re:gift)

    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Oct 15, 2019
     | 4,926 views

    Many people give out of guilt. The apostle Paul says we should give with joy! The only way we can do this is if we first realized just how joyfully generous God has been to us. When we see His joyful generosity, that encourages us to be joyfully generous ourselves.

    Opening and Introduction In our lesson tonight, we hear about farmers that plant seeds. If a farmer doesn’t plant, there won’t be anything to harvest later in the year. His livelihood depends on generously planting as many seeds as he can. This passage uses a lot of farming imagery. But what ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,593 views

    When a person preaches from the Bible, with their audience as the primary focus, it becomes an empty narcissistic and hedonistic exercise in futility.

    I have watched, listened to, and read countless sermons in my 50+ years as a Born-Again Christian and I have noticed the continued increase in feel-good, self-help, multi-point motivational messages that are more focused upon fallen human beings than upon Jesus, who has become more of a ...read more

    A look at the virtues of salvation every Born-Again Christian must intentionally grow in.

    At the moment of salvation, every Born-Again Christian put on "Christ," the "breastplate of faith and love,” and the “helmet of salvation" (1 Thess 5:8-9 ESV; Rom 13:145; Gal 3:27). We are implored to daily "put on": - The Armor of light (Rom 13:12) – To honor Jesus. ...read more
