    Render To God The Things That Are God's

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 11, 2013
     | 12,287 views

    Jesus says, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's" (Matt 22:21). Most sermons on this verse deal with the first part of this verse, but what does the second part mean? What does it mean to render to God?

    MAIN TEXT: Matt 22:15-22 (parallels in Mark 12:13–17 and Luke 20:20–26) The Jews were desperately seeking to discredit Jesus, because within the context, He was speaking parables against them. They would stop at nothing to do so. Within the context of this verse, various groups ask Him ...read more

    We see from Scripture that an attitude of thanksgiving is expected of God’s children. We can attain this by keeping our pride, complacency, and critical attitudes in check and our focus on all blessings we have from God.

    Always Thankful For All Things 11/23/08 PM Text: Ephesians 5:20 Introduction This Thursday is Thanksgiving Day. One day in which we set aside our busy schedules to be thankful. Now, there is nothing wrong with that but the word of God tells us that thankfulness should be our attitude all the time, ...read more

    Love Believes All Things

    Trust is a tricky business. Trust isn’t easy to come by; once it is lost it isn’t easy to regain. On the one hand, it’s a prerequisite for many worthwhile things. On the other hand, putting your trust in the wrong place often carries a high price.

    Alba 1-11-2026 LOVE BELIEVES ALL THINGS I Corinthians 13:7 Pew Researchers keep track of the trust Americans have in their government. Would it surprise you to hear that on average 73% of people trust the government just about always or most of the time. If that sounds confusing to you, that was ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,854 views

    It's not hard to be thankful for obvious things like God, our families or our health, but what about things that might not be obvious like food, shelter and clothing? And then there are the things that we wouldn't be thankful for at all...but should be.

    Scripture warns us clearly that the love of the world is in direct opposition to the love of the Father. When we become overly attached to the world, our spiritual sensitivity begins to die slowly.
