Household Homosexuality?? We need those who are in Christ to speak up….

I’m sure you all are very familiar with the recent “coming out” of NBA center Jason Collins. Sadly, it has made every front page on stop-lying-homosexuality-is-and-will-always-be-a-sin-leviticus-18-22-1every major newspaper and most major television stations seemed consumed with talking about it 24/7.

I use the word “sadly”; because a person’s sinful sexual preference has taken precedence over the trial of Dr. Gosnell. He is accused “as of April 2013 is on trial for first and third degree murder, illegal prescribing of drugs, conspiracy related to corruption, and illegal abortions and related medical malpractice offenses“ in his abortion house of horrors. Now, when this story first came out those who opposed abortion had to literally beg the liberal media outlets to cover the story. I can understand why, those who support abortion and woman’s choice don’t want their highly debated freedom to receive negative press. But now I see what those liberal media outlets do want: Their sexual preference covered nonstop.

Turn on the TV and you will see what’s important to America….. Read more

True quotes from Godly Men #15

We have the true and only answer to sins like homosexuality, divorce, drugphil-johnson addiction, and other forms of rampant immorality. It’s the glorious liberty of salvation in Christ. It’s a message about the grace of God, which has accomplishes what no law could ever do. The gospel is the power of God unto salvation—Good News that truly changes hearts—and we need to proclaim that message. Politically-driven hostility against our neighbors is not the best way to let the light of the glorious gospel of Christ shine unto them.

We’re like lighthouse keepers in a dark and stormy world. We’ve been given a mission of rescue and mercy. We can’t be like James and John, who in a moment of weakness and immaturity wanted to call down fire from heaven to annihilate some unbelievers who took an opposing stance… Read more

Do you know this Jesus?-Brandon Davison

 

“That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life—the life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us—that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. And we are writing these things so that our joy may be complete.” 1 John 1:1-4

If you have been raised with Christ….

What an interesting statement Paul makes at the beginning of Colossians 3. “If you have been raised with Christ……”. How can we better raised-568x250understand why this particular statement is used? Well a little background on this epistle might clear some things up. Paul penned this letter in response to a personal visit from Epaphras, who was the founder, pastor, servant, and minister of this church. Epaphras had come to Paul to ask for help because of a dangerous heresy that had entered the Colossian church. What was this heresy? Well, like all other heresies it was an attack on the humanity and deity of Christ Jesus.

Like all false teaching that distorts the person, work, and deity of Jesus Christ, a form of works based salvation is what usually follows and the heresy at the Colossian church was no different. Paul tells us exactly what it is:

“If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the world, why, as if you were still alive in the world, do you submit to regulations-“Do not handle, Do not taste, Do not touch” (referring to things that all perish as they are used) according to human precepts and teachings?” Colossians 2:20-22 Read more

So you made a profession of Christ……

So you made a profession of faith in Christ! You walked down an alter and you noahs_flood_immersionsaid you believed in Him, you said you would submit your life to Him. You started going to church, and recently you purchased your first bible. You may have reset the previously worldly radio stations in your car to the religious stations. You attend a bible study at your church and you fellowship with others who have made the same profession. You watch the religious channels on TV now and you no longer go to the places you use to go. As a matter of fact, you may have let someone in your life go, because you came under conviction, or maybe, perhaps someone told you it was wrong. You also may have cleaned up your speech and started to memorize the Scriptures. Read more

The Beatitudes by Jesus Christ Part 2

The day the Lord saved me Matthew chapter 5 was heavy on my heart. Still trapped in my sin and believing myself to be saved becauseBeatitudes-1 of my own works, this sermon breathed new life into me. It exposed my hypocrisy and brought me down on my face (where I belonged) right at the feet of my Savior. Amen.

Some regard this sermon to be the greatest sermon ever given, I would agree. For in it the Lord Jesus Christ specifically deals with what people who do enter the Kingdom look like, and what those who will not enter the kingdom look like. Yet, in His compassion for the souls of men, even to those who will reject Him, He offers the keys of eternal life. Offering a salvation by the Glorious Grace of His Father, through His perfect and complete work on the cross, that the Spirit may give life to those who have been called according to the purposes of God.

The Preached Word Part 7

Do the warnings of Scripture frighten you? Do they cause you to examine yourself and run to Christ? Or do you look past them with a “that doesn’t apply to me” casual attitude? Listen as My Pastor breaks down what Hebrews 10:26 does mean. May the the Lord’s warning spur you onto further obedience and faithfulness to the only true God Jesus Christ!

“For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy on the evidence of two or three witnesses. How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace? For we know him who said, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.” It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” Hebrews 10:26-31
