    God’s choice is not unfair because He owes nothing to sinful man. (God still gives insight, concepts and ideas to mankind) God is free from obligation or constraint in bestowing mercy on people. God loves every person on the face of the earth, and He’s wa

    This sermon is in a series on fruit of the Spirit, namely The Character of a Christian: Self Control.

    I. I have really enjoyed preaching this series on the "fruits" (character) of a Christian, and then I came down to this last one and read it again "Self Control".

    Controlling Our Complaining

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 13, 2013
     | 7,505 views

    Comparing the response of Moses (Numbers 11:4-15) to how Jesus responded (Matthew 14:13-21) after learning John the Baptist was executed. An appropriate response to stress and adversity comes through a deep, abiding relationship with God the Father.

    When it comes to complaining, Saint Francis De sales once said, “The truly patient man neither complains of his hard lot nor desires to be pitied by others. He speaks of his sufferings in a natural, true, and sincere way, without murmuring, complaining, or exaggerating ...read more

    We all resemble the Israelites in this respect. Although we have experienced tremendous proof of God’s steadfast care and his blessings beyond our imagining in many cases, our ability to rest our will and control in God waivers.

The definition of the word is: the quality or fact of being able to grip something firmly; the quality or ...read more
