    The Lies Of False Religion. Conclusion Series

    Other lies state that Jesus did not bring forth a new Testament, AKA, Religion. These next verses prove that that statement is misleading. For without a New Testament the gentile race would have no chance for salvation.

    The Lies of False Religion. Conclusion Lets look at these next verses and see what a false religion is. 1Jo 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of anti-christ, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now ...read more

    This sermon introduction emphasizes the importance of private acts of giving, praying, and fasting as taught by Jesus, highlighting the need for a self-giving love that seeks God's approval rather than that of others.

    Hello church and welcome. I am glad we are observing Ash Wednesday together. Today is the first day of Lent, a 40-day period of reflection, prayer, confession, and letting go. We join with believers all over the world during Lent. Lent is a time for us to assess ourselves and make adjustments. It’s ...read more

    God is concerned with true worship from the heart, not outward observances.

    “The Pharisees and some of the scribes gathered around Him when they had come from Jerusalem, 2 and had seen that some of His disciples were eating their bread with impure hands, that is, unwashed. 3 (For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they carefully wash their hands, thus ...read more

    Sermon 12 in a study in the Sermon on the Mount

    As we come now to chapter 6 of Matthew’s gospel, and continue in our study of this sermon, I want to address just a couple of peripheral issues that may or may not arise in the mind of the hearer/reader, but should be broached just on the chance that they might. First, there is the question of ...read more

    Sick Religion And Healed Hearts

    based on 101 ratings
     | 18,012 views

    Religion is sick when it is system-only, salvation-only, or self-only. Christ gives us instead a relationship with Himself, a model of life, and an embracing compassion.

    Religion is either one of life’s greatest blessings, or it is one of the sickest things we do. Religion can be wonderful. I assume that because you are in church today you agree with that. Religion can be fulfilling, it can be instructive, it can be inspiring. Religion has driven so much of ...read more

    Genesis 1:1. It is said that if you can get through the first verse of the Bible, you can read and believe the rest. Do you believe in God? If so, why? How do I know God exists?

    One of the simplest stories in the Bible seems to be one of the hardest stories for some to believe. One of the famous men that doubted the Biblical creation story was a man named Charles Darwin, who died in April of 1882. Through Darwin’s studies he determined that man was not created by God, as ...read more

    Your religion will never save you. Only a relationship with Jesus can.

    I am certainly happy to be done with the first chapter. The wrath of GOD and attributes of a depraved society are not easy subjects to speak on, or even listen to. We are often torn between the conflicting standards of society, or of GOD. Choose you this day whom ye will serve. For the ...read more

    Religion to most is external- what you look like. Jesus says that a religion that is worth anything begins internally with a relationship with Him and will be lived out to the widows and orphans that we meet in life.

    Having a religion that is worth something James 1:19-1:27 Introduction- We are continuing to be in the series Nuts and Bolts of life. We have looked at relationships, both with God and others.
