    God gives us more than we ask for. Respectable-looking people may not be as righteous as they think. God reaches out to sinners through fellow sinners.

    Do you know what it’s like to be lame? No, I don’t mean do your jokes fall flat from time to time, or do you think a night out with your spouse means a trip to the grocery store together. What I mean is do you know what it’s like to have feet and legs that don’t work? I do. ...read more

    God foresees our needs. He provides for our needs, ahead of time, even before we see them. God provides by grace, not merit.

    I want to share from both Chapter 20 and 21 today. Both chapters record God’s specific instructions given to Moses, and now for Joshua to follow through. • God made specific provisions for two particular needs. • Josh 20 – to designate 6 cities as cities of refuge, for ...read more

    Stubbornness Is As Iniquity And Idolatry

    While no serious Christian would overtly condone idolatry, we do something just as bad by allowing stubbornness to rule our hearts or the hearts of others.

    Intro: Would you condone idolatry? Have you ever known anyone to casually admit to idolatry? What if you were talking to a friend who is a Christian one day about character flaws and he said something like, “Well, I know I’ve got a problem with idolatry” or “I’ve ...read more

    Forgiveness results in love for God, resulting in faith towards God, resulting in wanting to obey God, resulting in receptivity to the deeper teachings of God, resulting in unbroken fellowship with God.

    Forgiveness--> Love--> Faith--> Obedience--> Teaching--> Fellowship with God If we wrongly think we didn’t need much of God’s forgiveness we won’t love God very much. As a result our faith will be weak; we won’t want to obey Him and our knowledge of the deeper teachings of ...read more

     | 5,244 views

    1) God’s plan in creation is for men and women to marry and have children. 2) In this fallen world, marriage is not God’s best for everyone, and having children is not God’s calling on all couples. 3) Focus on Ephesians 6:1-4 (from John Piper)

    HoHum: “Familiarity breeds contempt -- and children." Mark Twain WBTU: Must go back to the context here. At the end of Ephesians 5 Paul talks about marriage. He does give the role of the husband and the role of the wife in marriage, but there is so much more. In Ephesians 5 Paul is ...read more

    How Good Friday Is Good For Us

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 4, 2015
     | 5,570 views

    Jesus sees all our sins, but because he had made the ultimate sacrifice with his blood, we can have forgiveness. Christ is the sin eater who has taken care of all our sins, and that is another reason why Good Friday is good for us.

    What is so good about Good Friday? That is the question many of us probably ask when Good Friday comes around every year. After all, what is good about a day that commemorates Jesus' horrible torture and execution on a Roman cross? Good Friday is a dark day in some respects because it ...read more
