    Counterfeit Humility

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Mar 13, 2024
     | 452 views

    Like counterfeit currency notes, you have this ‘Counterfeit humility’ that people feign to gain recognition and favour.

    Counterfeit humility Colossians 2:18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you.

Marry that desire to God’s desire of WANTING to bless us and it would seem that you have a situation that is automatic. Maybe it is, but perhaps it is ...read more

    The Narrow Door

    Contributed by Michael Adams on Mar 16, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,503 views

    "Someone" (vs 23) asks a general question but God desires personal questons... Thoughts on our walk toward the Narrow Door. Can be a very fun sermon. A call for people to have a deeper walk with God. Concluding sugestions at the end of sermon.

    In some of our previous messages I shared from: 1) Luke 13:31-35 where Jesus weeps for Jerusalem. The Pharisees have a pretense of caring for Jesus by warning Him of Herod's plans to kill Him, all while they themselves desire to do just that. We also talked about the animal imagery used in the ...read more

    Know your own self, do what is right whether you like it or not, and go beyond the norm. It will drive your mother crazy and will call from your Father, "Well done".

Few of us are neutral about our mothers; we hold them close and then push them away forcefully. We get ...read more

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Aug 28, 2011
    based on 14 ratings
     | 7,350 views

    Ephesians 4 tells us that Christianity is exclusive in that it worships an exclusive God. Understand that there is only one true God, Who wrote only one book, has only one begotten Son, and only one plan of salvation.

    The Exclusiveness of God Ephesians 4:1-6 There has been a trend in America today to have churches become all-inclusive and embrace or incorporate the teachings of other faiths into Christianity. One such movement is Chrislam which seeks to build on a statement of Malcolm X when he said, "We are ...read more
