     | 10,793 views

    The secret to loving is first receiving God’s love, knowing you are greatly loved, and quit focusing on people and start focusing on what God has done.

    We are taught to love others. This is what God command, that we love one another. But how can we? How can we be kind to those who harm us? To those who are unkind to us? How can we forgive those who backstab us? How can we love the way Jesus loves? We want to. We long to. But how can ...read more

    It is so easy to get discouraged, but the words that we say have such an impact on people. The church today needs encouragment, but how can we give and receive encouragment

    Jesus leaves the worst of the letters to the seven churches for last, because they received no commendation for doing what was right. They were a phony church, a church simply playing church.

    PASSION involves each of us giving to God. Jesus told us that is more blessed to give than to receive. Actually, all of ourselves. All of our love.

    PASSION of ELIJAH Text: Ephesians 5:16 thru 18 We serve a great and mighty God. He has given us so much. And yet, we seem to have so little to give Him in return.

    God made a promise to Abraham. It was a promise of His grace and blessing. Paul reminds the Galatians of this promise. He reveals it to you and me in hopes we will receive it.

    Introduction: In my sermon last week the Galatians proved something. They proved that even though God through His Son, Jesus Christ had made them heirs to that promise He had made to Abraham many years before, they had still followed an unseemly path and had rejected that promise by turning away ...read more
