    Breaking The Silence: The Call To True Liberation

    Contributed by Jessie Manuel on Jul 21, 2025
     | 16 views

    Amos’s vision of a basket of ripe fruit signals that the time of patience has ended; God's judgment is imminent, but more than that, it is a plea for awareness and action.

    Introduction Brothers and sisters in Christ, today we gather to reflect on a profound message from the prophet Amos, found in Amos 8:1-12. This passage confronts us with the stark realities of injustice, the consequences of silence, and the divine call to liberation. Amos’s vision of a basket of ...read more

    We use a lot of mirrors to examine and determine the kind of person we are, but the only true mirror is God’s Word. Every other mirror will leave us with a warped view of ourselves. We must be transformed into the image of Christ.

    Reflections By Pastor Jim May (This sermon was presented using projected pictures of people standing in front of different carnival mirrors that distorted their true appearance) How we see ourselves will always determine how far we go in life, and how far we go with God. If we are going to be ...read more

    We can have a tendency to focus a lot on our image. Whether it's how we look, how we come across or how we're perceived. And to some degree we should it seriously but we can focus too much on our physical image and not enough on our spiritual image.

    REFLECTIONS We can have a tendency to focus a lot on our image. Whether it's how we look, how we come across or how we're perceived by others, our image is something we take seriously. And in part, that's a good thing. We should be concerned with how we come across and that people ...read more

    A reflection is to give back an image or likeness. When ‘one’ turns to the Lord the veil that kept the light of God from shinning (as with Moses) is uncovered or taken away and now every believer has the very light sent from God!

    Reflection Text: II Corinthians 3: 7-11,16-18 But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory ...read more

    Jesus' cleansing of the temple graphically proclaims that the temple was no only needed. Jesus is the the temple and with the Holy Spirit in us, we become a temple. God is among his people, bringing in his kingdom.

    John 2:13-22 “Reflection” INTRODUCTION I have always found the scene of Jesus cleansing the temple puzzling, if not troubling. It seems so out of character for Jesus. Certainly, he has shown anger before at the hardheartedness and judgmentalism of some people, but he has never ...read more

    We cannot master the word of God, it must master us. It provides a mirror to help us see ourselves more accurately and act accordingly.

    1. In his book, Glorious Finish, Daniel Henderson challenges us to imagine a world without mirrors, reflections, or pictures. There is no way to see how we look to others. Is our hair messy? Are we in need of make-up? Does our beard need trimming? Do these pants make me look fat? a. When Jewish ...read more

    Peace of mind comes to those who think obediently. Paul gives us great instruction here and promises that the God of peace will be with us as we practice Christian thinking and doing.

    Can you control your thoughts? Not that you have absolute and total charge over everything that goes on in your mind, but, can you decide to think about something if asked? If you can’t, we need to get help for you. Perhaps I should start all over and ask how much control do you have over your ...read more

    Christ has interpreted the seventh commandment by the tenth to reflect the purity expected of those who are part of the Kingdom of Heaven. Marriage for a Christian is meant to reflect the relationship of Christ and His people.

    “I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”[1] The people of Newburyport, Massachusetts were scandalized in the summer of 2004 when their mayor, Mary Anne Clancy, admitted to an affair with a married gym teacher. ...read more
