Colossians 3:1-4 In a very brief series out of Colossians chapter 3 we will address the issue of Colossians 2:23; "These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting self-made religion and asceticism and severity to the body, but they are of no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh." Paul then turns to discuss the things that do help to…

In Ephesians 4 Paul tells us to walk worthy of the calling to which we have been called. What does this mean? We will see that it begins with humility. Gentleness, patience, a bearing with one another in love, and a desire to maintain the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace are all impossible for the prideful man. In fact, the prideful man is …

What sets this text apart is the Jesus' mission of mercy contrasted with their self-constructed religion. The theme, "Don't let your religion prevent your mercy" is revealed in three parts: 1. Have mercy on your enemies 2. Have mercy on the n…

In this sermon we find that everyone wishes Jesus’ death (for their own reasons), but Jesus wishes life for us (even if we won’t receive it). However, if we reject Him, we may not see that opportunity again until he returns and we all say, “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!”

What is the Kingdom Of God Like? In scripture Jesus uses many parables to tell us about His Kingdom; In Luke 13:10-21 Jesus heals a woman on the Sabbath in order to demonstrate what the kingdom is like, then He gives two illustrations to help us understand the healing. The fullness of this scripture reveals to us that the kingdom is about transform…

In this sermon we find five sets of commands clusters around truths and promises of God we need to know in order to have a healthy relationship with the material things of this world. In the end, it can all be summed up in this: store your treasures in Heaven, because wherever you store your treasure is where you will keep your heart!…

What do we do with God's blessings? This text teaches us that God allows us to judge what is right in apportioning what we have. At the same time, we are commanded to guard against all forms of covetousness/greed, because one day, God will judge what we have done, and He will give us a portion of the inheritance in Heaven based upon what we have do…

One of the dangers of legalism is that a person is spiritually dead, but they don't know it, perhaps the church around them doesn't know it, and it wreaks havoc on everyone. Why wouldn't they know it? Because the headstone has been removed (Legalists don't hold to the truth of scripture about the life that is from above). Join us for a sermon from …

As we begin Luke 11:1-13 we find a disciple asking Jesus to teach them how to pray. In this first sermon we look to Christ as our perfect example, we look at his heart for prayer. And, we look at the humble heart required to be a true disciple. Finally, we look at God as the father from whom every good thing flows. Make no mistake, there is a right…

We handle the parable of The Good Samaritan in two parts. This first part answers the question, "What must I do to inherit eternal life." The simple answer is that you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind, and you must love your neighbor as yourself. In this serm…
