In this lesson, we discuss how our person (soul) and body are one. In understanding this, we allow Paul to show us how God sees our body in three important ways that will impact how we live from his famous words about our body from 1 Cor. 6:19-20.
Without the willingness to save, what good is might? As the end goal of His power and might, God’s mission of rescue to us is what truly separates Him from the powerless idols that so often pull us astray. We worship a God who is not just mighty, He is mighty to save!
Ever heard someone say "That's a Romans 14 issue?" What did they mean? Unfortunately, sometimes Romans 14 is misused to sweep doctrinal disagreements under the rug in order to promote unity in diversity. Is this how God wants us to use Romans 14? In this lesson we discuss what Romans 14 means and show some ways it's often misused.
Romans 12:1-2 is a message that is special to Christians. Understanding its placement in the book of Romans as Paul transitions from matters of doctrine to duty is why this passage has been compared to a halftime speech. The message is simple in these two verses. Paul tells us one thing to do and two ways to do it.
Dr. Stan Reid visited with us for the third lesson in the Summer Series and delivered a great sermon about the valuing all life that God has created.
Life hands challenges, trials, tribulations. Why doesn't God do something? Why doesn't he give us an easier life. Abraham had many tests but one was the supreme test. God asked him to sacrifice his son. He complied and God stopped the knife at the last moment. Why?
David Duncan visited with us for the third lesson in the Summer Series and delivered a great sermon about the uniqueness of our Christian faith.
Some people have a view of God that believes he could never be mad. Yet, in both the Old Testament and the New there are many passages which detail the anger and wrath of God upon sinners. God never gets mad without a cause and he never is unjust in his anger. Romans 1:18-32 documents a number of things that reveal the wrath of God from heaven. We should carefully consider these things and if we are practicing them we should immediately repent.
David, Solomon and Samuel are Bible heroes. They are associated with greatness, faith and success. But they also have something else in common. While successful men, they struggled with fatherhood. All three had sons who were disappointments. Yet, all three of these fathers should have been very familiar with a passage of Scripture the Jews call the Shema. In Deuteronomy 6:4-9, there are three principles of fatherhood that makes successful men successful fathers.
Dr. Howard Norton visited with us for the second lesson in the Summer Series and delivered a great sermon about keeping your desires in check.
