    How the seemingly caring can lead you astray with false doctrine.

    I want us all to think back to a time in our past; some of us to the not quite so distant past. For others of us, maybe back to some of our earliest memories. I can remember some of the things in my very early youth was singing songs like “London Bridge” and “Row Your Boat”. ...read more

    Our High Priest Jesus has offered for all time one sacrifice for sins. This is the real Independence day. Christ has freed us from all sins, from death, and the power of the devil. If we reject this sacrifice there is no other cure for our disease of sin.

    Why do we do what we don't want to do? Etc, etc. In this message we look at the why and how of the sinful nature

    Wow that was depressing. I would have expected more from Paul, but this just sounds like whining.

But at some time in our Christian life most of us could probably identify with what Paul is ...read more

    In Romans 6, Paul dealt with those who think they can do whatever they want now, even live sinfully. Now Paul turns to those who think they need to follow “the rules” in order to be a Christian. What we find is that our only hope for living is a relatio

    We do what we don’t want, and vice versa...Why?

    I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Romans 7:14 - 25 (NRSV) [1] We are still grappling with some of life’s “why” questions. Today’s question is #6 in the series – a riddle that is arguably one of the simplest and most basic; at the ...read more

    “Despicable Me” Pt. 1 – Repentance Text: Romans 7:15-20 15I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18I ...read more

     | 8,627 views

    Our daily decisions, no matter how small, usually shape a lifetime, and wisdom is found in making the most of each and every opportunity. All of our decisions matter to God because they impact our lives and the lives of others.

    There is one struggle that all of us as Christians have. It is the struggle between knowing what is right and doing what is right. In other words it is the conflict between good and evil. Believers have the ability to sin because of the legacy from Adam that we can’t do anything right. The ...read more

    Paul discusses the role of the Law in conviction and confrontation with the Sin of a person. The law of the Lord which is known as the Law of Moses is not evil, not bad, not tyrant but the person who reads it is a corrupted, sinful man, and he is bad in character and nature.

    God, grant me the wisdom to know the difference … and, as we shall see, therein lies the problem. I don’t know about you, but I usually don’t know the difference and I usually do the most harm to myself and to others when I think that I do.

    [This is the third sermon on Reinhold Niebuhr's "The Serenity Prayer," asking God to grant us the wisdom to know what to accept and what to change. This was also preached on Communion Sunday, hence the lead up to Communion at the end.] Wisdom. What is wisdom? Well, let’s ...read more

     | 6,354 views

    Paul shared the reality of his struggle with sin to prepare his readers for Romans 8, the work of the indwelling Holy Spirit in our lives. It will not be our ability or willpower that enables us to obey God.

    Paul affirms in the previous section that the Law is not useless. It is not sinful or bad. • No doubt the Law can only point out our weakness and makes us conscious of our sin; it is powerless to save us but it is not useless. • It shows us the will of God, the righteous standards of God for our ...read more

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jan 23, 2022
     | 2,704 views

    The sad truth is that all of us seem to fit too well into Stevenson's story about Dr. Jekyll. Because we also seem to have a split personality, at times doing things we know we should not do.
