    The analysis of the doctrine of sin in Ephesians 2:1-3 shows us several truths about sin.

    Scripture Today, I am beginning a new series of eight sermons on Ephesians 2 that I am calling, “God’s Plan of Reconciliation.” Before we begin Ephesians 2, let’s briefly review Ephesians 1. As in all his letters, the Apostle Paul began his letter to the Ephesians with a brief greeting (1:1-2). ...read more

    God doesn’t expect us to be perfect--God knows us better than that. God does encourage us, though, to acknowledge our sin, seek to turn away from our rebelliousness, and received God’s forgiveness.

    Psalm 51:1-19 “A Merciful God” INTRODUCTION For decades, the church has focused on sin. Preachers appear to have taken delight in telling the members of their congregation how bad and sinful they were. The theme seemed to be, “If it felt good, then it had to be bad.” Congregational members ...read more

    Put Off The Old, Put On The New: Tips For Christian Living In Ephesians 4 Series

    I want to live a true, real Christian life. I hope you do too. So we’re going to search out in the scriptures some of the most practical teachings we can find. We’re going to look at the dos and the don'ts and hopefully we’ll find a better understanding of what faith looks like.

    What does it mean to be worldly? “The Bible defines worldliness by centering morality where we intuitively know it should be. Worldliness is the lust of the flesh (a passion for sensual satisfaction), the lust of the eyes (an inordinate desire for the finer things of life), and the pride of life ...read more

    Do we as a body of Christ and as a nation glorify God? Time for each one of us to heed to His warnings, stop testing God; come to Him in complete repentance, reliance and rest on Him alone. Let us not give God an opportunity to write on our walls ...

    Opening illustration: Have you ever seen a tragedy coming and could do nothing to stop it?

    John wanted his readers to stop denying their sin and to start confessing their sins.

    (1 John 1:8 NKJV) If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. John didn't want his readers to be led astray by the Gnostic heresy of sinless perfection. Last time we learned that the fact is, we do sin, and continue to say we have no sin is a sign of ...read more

    Even with a strong knowledge of the Word and a close relationship with the Father, you and I are still susceptible to being tempted by and succumbing to the allures of the world and its lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and the boastful pride of life.

    (1 John 2:12 NKJV) I write to you, little children, Because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake. (1 John 2:13 NKJV) I write to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, Because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, ...read more

    Namann’s real problem wasn’t leprosy, was it?

    Namaan was a powerful man. He was a leader – the chief commander of the army of Aram – a country that today we know as Syria. He was a military man - someone who was used to giving orders and having them followed – a person who expected things to be done his way and without any questions asked – ...read more

For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18 I know that ...read more

    In this sermon, we look more closely at what it means to consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.

    Scripture In his commentary on Romans, James Montgomery Boice, from whom I am drawing today’s material, spends an entire sermon on one verse. Today, I also want to look at Romans 6:11 in a more focused way because it is so important. Let me begin with a question. How many times up until Romans ...read more

     | 5,875 views

    In our study today, Paul teaches us that there are only two masters in the spiritual world, and Christians are slaves--happy slaves--to obedience.

    Scripture Let us read Romans 6:15-23: "15 What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means! 16 Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of ...read more
