    The Problem Of Lingering Sin

    Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Jul 9, 2017
     | 2,418 views

    Justification does not destroy our sinful nature. It is a lens thru which we see our propensity to sin

    In his writings entitled The Confessions, Saint Augustine addressed himself eloquently and passionately to the enduring spiritual questions that have stirred the minds and hearts of thoughtful men since time began. Written A.D. 397, The Confessions are a history of young Augustine's fierce ...read more

    The Battle Within Series

     | 17,345 views

    Paul addresses the Christian's battle with indwelling sin.

    Tommy Lasorda, the former Los Angeles Dodgers manager, once described his battle with bad habits: “I took a pack of cigarettes from my pocket, stared at it and said, “Who’s stronger, you or me?” The answer was me. I stopped smoking. Then I took a vodka martini and said to it, “Who’s stronger, you ...read more

    Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor...

    Contributed by Jonathan Meyer on Nov 2, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 9,036 views

    Jesus offers rest to His followers--from the troubles of the world, yes, but especially from the burdensome weight (the yoke) of the Law.

    One of the highlights of our trip to Germany—beyond all of the historical Luther sites and exhibits—was the opportunity to visit the city of Osnabruck. There’s nothing of particular importance for Lutherans about Osnabruck. We visited purely for my own sake. My branch of the Meyer family came ...read more

    Revelation Of The New Self Series

    based on 15 ratings
     | 11,928 views

    The third in a series of messages on the complete sufficiency of the Gospel.

    The shocking and liberating revelation of the new self really happens when we can explain why we still struggle with sin. Some theologians and Christian authors have resorted to creative and often impressive mental gymnastics in their attempts to reconcile these two scriptural ideas: (1) the old ...read more

    War In The Heart Series

    Paul describes the effect of living under the rule of the Mosaic law.

    Is the law then contrary to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could give life, then righteousness would indeed be by the law. But Scripture imprisoned everything under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe (Galatians ...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

    What Is Sin? Series

    Contributed by Moy Hernandez on Oct 27, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,800 views

    Sin is the devils influence that has been planted in our hearts and that separates us from God, causing us to rebel against Him. Sin, then, in its original form and to this very day, is INSUBORDINATION.

    WHAT IS SIN? Romans 7:13-20 The answer is rebellion against God? Paul says: “For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.” (Romans 7:19-20) Sin is the ...read more

    Paul discovers that he cannot escape from the pwoer of sin and evil in his life. His only hope is Jesus.

    Romans 7:15-25a “Trapped” INTRODUCTION I going to name a number of people, and I’d like to see if you can identify the one thing that they have in common. Here goes: Moses, King David, Thomas Jefferson, Dwight D. Eisenhower, JFK, Martin Luther King, Elizabeth Taylor, Bill ...read more

    A Remedy For Wretchedness

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 28, 2015
     | 4,373 views

    Paul desperately wants to be delivered from the influence of indwelling sin. He struggles, as do we all, with his corrupt nature. Through Christ we overcome and make progress...yet the more we grow, the more in touch we are with our faults.

    Do you ever feel like a hopeless mess? The Apostle Paul sure did. In Romans 7 he berates himself for his shortcomings: “What a wretched man I am!” Paul's problem was a serious condition. Sin enslaves; it takes over. Jeremiah writes that the human heart is “desperately ...read more

    It's Hard Out Here For A P.i.m.p (Person In My Position)

    Contributed by Paul L Brantley on Sep 12, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 24,228 views

    It interesting that no matter how you love God and how much you remember what he done for you, you still find yourself struggling. Struggling with issues of life, struggling with this thing called our flesh. Yes we love God, but we still struggle.

    It's Hard Out Here For A P.I.M.P. Romans 7:14-24 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. 16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. ...read more

    The Enneagram And Inner Healing - Psycho-Heresy In The Church

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 8, 2019
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,185 views

    Within the church there has been a great influx of human psychology mixed with Scripture. This has resulted in a convoluted understanding of the human mind and heart, as they are examined and studied from man’s perspective, rather than from God’s.

    The Enneagram System of personality typing has surged in popularity among American Christians, especially among the young who are culturally steeped in both the practices of church doctrine and dogma as well as of the secular world, and are not content with what the Bible says about the human ...read more

    One significant choice we must make in life is to choose discipline. Otherwise, we'll live with the regret of that decision.

    We continue our message series entitled “Choices” this morning. We said as we began this series that we are the sum total of all the choices we’ve made in our lives until today. Going forward, the choices we make will shape the person we become. We’ve looked at choosing purpose over popularity and ...read more
