    Beware Of Halloween Alternatives! Series

    Ultimately, Christian participation in Halloween is a matter of conscience before God. Whatever level of Halloween participation you choose, you must honor God by keeping yourself separate from the world and by showing mercy to those who are perishing.

    Halloween Evangelism There are several different ways Christians will engage in Halloween evangelism. Some will adopt a "No Participation" policy. As Christian parents, they don't want their kids participating in spiritually compromising activities—listening to ghost stories and ...read more

    God extends mercy before judgment becomes the only option. It is only after the church turns away and the world rejects mercy that God judges. Sodom reveals the picture of God’s deep mercy.

    God’s Mercy Revealed in Sodom Genesis 18: 17 And the LORD said, "Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing, ... 20 And the LORD said, "Because the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grave, 21 "I will go down now and see whether they have done altogether ...read more

    Sermon # 40 - Mercy Instead Of Judgement Series

     | 372 views

    Jonah freely accepted God’s mercy but wanted God’s judgement to be given the people of Nineveh. God’s word reminds us that it is not our prerogative to judge others, but rather to be merciful to them, just as God is merciful to us.

    We read in Jonah 4:4, “Then the LORD said, "Do you think it is right for you to be angry?" (ERV) The God who created heaven and the earth asked Jonah the prophet, if he thought it was right to be angry with Him, very much like a parent would enquire of their child, who is upset with ...read more

    Job’s three friends talked too much and listened too little. We should resist interpreting God’s will for another person’s disaster. What people really need is compassionate listeners. (PowerPoint slides to accompany this talk are available on request – email: gcurley@gcurley.info)

    Paul has been fervently writing down God’s Words for the church as the Holy Spirit has guided his pen across the page. He has been working on communicating to us how it is we can stand out as light in a darkened world.

    Psalms 127 1. Ephesians 5:1-2 1 Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children 2 and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

    This message is about grace, mercy and peace. When we give or receive grace and mercy, peace will always follow. Likewise, we will never truly have peace without the giving and receiving of grace and mercy.
