    Hosea charged Israel with being “a cake not turned” or “half-baked". They were half-hearted towards God. Like Israel, many of today’s professed believers have followed the same pattern of incomplete discipleship.

    God is Love. But even the wrath of God is an attribute of God as much a part of God as any other attribute, an attribute without which God would be less than God. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    God’s Love and God’s Wrath (Preached first on 09/08/09, Sunday) Introduction (Secure Attention) and FCF: Do you want to know as to why sometimes you are not able to love the Lord?

    Jesus said, if the world hated Me, keep in mind it hate Me first! While not everyone faces physical violence, born again believers, who are not part of this world, can expect to be persecuted for Christ's name sake.

    We can experience God's mercy when we understand the importance of becoming a living sacrifice. His mercy frees us from sin, inspiring us to relinquish our rights and serve the one who sacrificed His life for us.

     | 1,725 views

    Jesus Changes Everything! Salvation was instant, but what does it mean to follow Jesus? How should we follow Jesus? Follow him when, where, how long? It is more than walking behind Him, it means obeying His commands and living our lives according to His Word.

    Sermon: What it Means To Following Jesus Scripture Lesson: Luke 14:27-33 “Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.
