    based on 94 ratings
     | 50,758 views

    We must separate ourselves from whatever is not like God. We must also separate ourselves unto God. This means that we most make ourselves only available to God. God uses people that have mad themselves available to him.

    2 Corinthians 6:17 "Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord...” God has always required His people to separate. He told Israel, “be ye holy, for I am Holy.” God knows that we become like, whoever and whatever we spend the most time with. God wants us to be like Him, ...read more

    The proud are caught up in illusions about themselves. Humility helps us submit to God’s definition of reality rather than ours.

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Mar 5, 2022
     | 1,426 views

    Using the analogy of a litmus test, this sermon juxtaposes the traits of arrogance over against the traits that reflect the DNA of love. It explores the inclusion of 1 Corinthians 13 sandwiched between chapters 12 and 14.
