Listening And Doing

Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Jan 26, 2020

Acting on faith waters faith. Listening to sermons and reading the Bible and doing nothing in response leads to...nothing. God wants way more than nothing for His people. So He's given us the gift and calling of being doers of the Word and not only hearers.

The Word of God is powerful. A detachment of soldiers came along with officials of the chief priest and Pharisees to arrest Jesus. He asked them, who do you want? “Jesus of Nazareth”, they replied. “I am he,” Jesus said. At his word the armed soldiers drew back and fell on the ground (John 18:3-6). ...read more
