My Life His Way
The cross was central to Jesus' life and mission, and it should be central to the lives of his followers. Taking up one's cross means willingly sacrificing one's own interests to serve and follow Jesus each day. It involves denying oneself, prioritizing God, opening one's heart to God, and working for Jesus by living according to his teachings. True life is found not in earthly things but by completely trusting in Jesus and obeying him through faith until death.
Remember
The document discusses the true meaning and significance of observing the Lord's Supper. It explains that the Lord's Supper is meant to (1) commemorate Jesus' death and resurrection, (2) signify our communion and union with Christ through partaking of the bread and cup, and (3) proclaim Jesus' death until he returns again. Observing the Lord's Supper regularly should strengthen our faith, love, and hope as we remember all that Jesus has done for us.

The sermon encourages believers to pray persistently and never give up hope that God will answer their prayers.

Lesson 23 love one another
Jesus taught his apostles at the Last Supper, sharing the sacrament with them and washing their feet. He commanded them to love one another as he loved them. Jesus represented himself as the true vine and his followers as branches that must remain connected to him. If the branches bear fruit through obedience and service, the gardener (Christ) will prune them to bear more fruit.
Water Turned To Wine
Jesus performs his first miracle at a wedding in Cana by turning water into wine when the host runs out of wine. Mary, Jesus' mother, tells Jesus they have no more wine. Although Jesus says his time has not yet come, he has the servants fill large stone jars with water. He then tells them to draw some out and take it to the master of ceremonies. When the master tastes it, not knowing its origin, he remarks to the bridegroom that he has saved the best wine for last. This miracle in Cana reveals Jesus' glory and causes his disciples to believe in him.

The Feasts - Passover
This document provides an overview of biblical feasts and holidays, comparing Jewish calendar dates to their significance in the New Testament church. It focuses on the feast of Passover, explaining that Passover commemorates God's act of passing over the Israelites when he struck down the firstborn of Egypt but spared the Israelites who had lamb's blood on their doorposts.

Spiritually, the Passover reminds believers that Egypt represents the world system from which we have been delivered by Christ's redemption.

It encourages readers to open their hearts to God, obey his word, walk humbly, receive his life, and ask for cleansing as they prepare for Easter and remember Jesus as their Passover.

Wheres_Jesus_in_Leviticus_part07_Passover_and_Unleavened_Bread
The document describes passages from Leviticus 23 that outline the feasts of Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. It explains that these feasts were holy convocations appointed by God to be proclaimed at specific times. Passover was to be celebrated on the 14th day of the first month at twilight, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread was to be celebrated on the 15th day of the same month for seven days, during which only unleavened bread could be eaten. The first and seventh days of the Feast of Unleavened Bread were also to be holy convocations where no ordinary work was done and a food offering was presented to God.
The Difficulty Of Going It Alone
This document discusses how without God and Christ, people are alone, hopeless, and unable to do anything. It encourages not going through life alone, as that is hard and leads to many troubles, but instead to have fellowship with God and other believers.

For as often as we eat this bread!
This document discusses the five acts of New Testament worship, focusing on the Lord's Supper. It explains that when partaking of communion, Christians look backwards to Jesus' death on the cross, forwards to his second coming, inwards in self-examination, and outwards in proclaiming his death to others. Christians are also to look upwards, remembering that the Lord's Supper was instituted by Jesus' command and exists to honor him. Partaking of communion rightly involves remembering Jesus' sacrifice, awaiting his return, discerning one's own heart, and sharing the gospel through this ritual.

Enlarging Our Hearts
Paul had planted the Corinthian church and supported himself so as not to burden them. Though the Corinthians had turned away from Paul, he urges them to open their hearts towards fellow Christians by recognizing their goodness and love, even when they admonish or correct.

Commitment means following Christ to glory, though this requires an initial willingness to follow him now.

OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT.pptx
This document discusses the differences between the Old and New Testaments. It notes that while the Old Testament established covenants between God and people like Noah and Abraham, the New Testament established a new covenant through Jesus Christ. Some of the key differences it outlines are that the Old Testament involved imperfect sacrifices and was written on stone, while the New Testament involves the perfect sacrifice of Jesus and is written on the heart. It emphasizes that we are now under the law of Christ established in the New Testament, not under both the Old and New Testaments simultaneously.
Is There Room for Jesus?
Sermon at the Haynes Street church of Christ on July 13, 2014. Topic: "Is There Room for Jesus?" Preacher: Steven Matthews
Route 66
This document provides guidance on finding spiritual messages and reminders from everyday road signs. It suggests pausing to reflect on verses when seeing signs like stop signs, school crossing signs, and directional signs. It encourages praying for others when seeing emergency vehicles or hospitals. Many signs serve as reminders to devote our lives to Christ, stay on the path of righteousness, and yield our hearts to God instead of other priorities. Road signs can inspire praise and thankfulness to God for our salvation through Jesus.

Because He lives
This document discusses how Jesus's sacrifice allows believers to have full assurance in God. It notes that animal sacrifices under the old law could not truly take away sins, but Jesus's single sacrifice was sufficient. Through faith in Christ, believers no longer have their sins held against them but can boldly approach God. The document encourages Christians to prepare for Jesus's return by assembling together, stirring up love and good works, and obeying the gospel through faith, repentance, confession, baptism and faithfulness.

Walking In The Light
This document discusses what it means to walk in the light based on several Bible passages. It means to live as Christ lived by keeping God's commandments and following His example. Christ is the source of our light, and we are commanded to walk as children of light by finding what pleases God in His word. The document encourages walking with God by agreeing with Him, walking uprightly and worthily in humility and love. It concludes by urging the reader to follow Jesus as the light of the world, not let Satan hinder them, and to hear, believe, repent of sins, confess Jesus, and be baptized into Christ.
The God Kind of Wisdom
This document discusses gaining godly wisdom. It begins by noting that wisdom should be the principle goal and comes from God. It then lists some blockers to wisdom like envy, self-seeking, and earthly desires. The document advocates developing godly qualities like purity, peacefulness, gentleness, mercy, and sincerity. It concludes by stating the godly wisdom involves righteous living guided by self-control according to God's word and the gospel of Christ.
Finding Jesus
The document discusses how to find Jesus. It says that while some say Jesus does not exist, others are interested in finding him. It then provides biblical references showing that people should seek Jesus with diligence and their whole heart. It notes Jesus pre-existed, was prophesied about, and was proven to have come as the leader and savior. The document concludes that Jesus can be found through studying scripture and coming to him, and that his message should be taught to all so they can be saved.
Living Upright In An Upside Down World
Lesson by Mike Smith Investigate the turmoil this world is facing and how we can live upright despite the confusion that is all around us. Live for Jesus my friends!
The truth is like a big mac!
The document compares the truth of God to a Big Mac hamburger in three ways:
1) You can only find the truth in the church, just as you can only find a Big Mac at McDonald's.
2) The truth has the right ingredients (no compromises) according to the Bible, just as a Big Mac has the standard ingredients.
3) Some people do not like the truth any more than some do not like Big Macs, but finding and accepting the truth, like eating a Big Mac, satisfies and provides sustenance for life.
THIS WORLD HAS NOTHING FOR ME
This document discusses the major decision of faith and lessons from Moses' example of faith. It summarizes that Moses refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, chose to suffer affliction with God's people over Egypt's pleasures, and looked to the heavenly reward. By faith, Moses stood for justice, thought God would use him to deliver Israel, forsook Egypt without fearing the king's wrath, and endured invisible to his heavenly Father. The document encourages walking by faith like Moses, knowing this world offers nothing but Jesus does.
New Testament Commands 9
This document lists 177 New Testament commands from the books of Luke and John. Some of the commands include instructions to pray regularly, ask God for daily provision and forgiveness, give to those in need, beware of hypocrisy and covetousness, and remember God's commands to love others. Believers are told not to fear man but to fear God, and to be ready for Christ's return at any time.
You Have To Give Up To Go Up

The goal is to provide opportunities for people to learn about Christianity and come to God, while glorifying Him in the process.

It defines spirituality as a state where the soul is vitalized by the Holy Spirit and committed to religious values. True spirituality involves continual renewal and growth in knowledge of God through Bible study and prayer. Characteristics of a spiritual person include being directed by the Spirit, imitating Christ, having a thankful attitude, and caring for others. The conclusion encourages readers to commit to becoming more spiritual by offering spiritual sacrifices to God.
David's Many Giants
- The document discusses various lessons that can be learned from the life of King David, including his victory over Goliath as a young shepherd, sparing Saul's life when he had the chance to take revenge, listening to Abigail's wisdom to not kill Nabal in anger, and admitting his sin of adultery with Bathsheba after Nathan confronted him.
- It encourages learning from both David's triumphs and mistakes, recognizing and destroying the "giants" of fear, anger, lust, and revenge in our own lives, and being ready to face threats by putting on God's armor and using his word.

Quick to listen,Slow to speak, Slow to anger

The document outlines three things we should do in our interactions: 1) be quick to listen and get all the facts before making decisions, 2) be slow to speak and think carefully before speaking to avoid harm, and 3) be slow to wrath since anger does not produce righteousness. Following these will help believers develop strong relationships through proper communication and behavior that honors God.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
