Christian Living
The document discusses three aspects of Christian living: 1) being completely knitted to God through faith in Christ and holding fast to hope; 2) having satisfaction through giving thanks in all circumstances according to God's will; 3) being doers of God's word through faith, not just hearers, in order to be justified.
I have sanctified this house
Solomon receives confirmation that God has accepted the temple Solomon built to house God's name. This passage is a representation of Jesus Christ building believers as God's temple through faith in Him. When Jesus intercedes for believers, the Father answers by sanctifying them and dwelling in them through His Spirit, just as He promised to dwell in the temple Solomon built. Believers are washed, sanctified, and justified in Jesus' name.
True Worship
The document discusses true worship according to the Bible. It begins by citing John 4:23-24 which states that true worshipers will worship God in spirit and truth. Several elements of true worship are then listed such as having the right attitude, worshiping in God's presence, and doing all things in His name and in spirit. Examples are given of improper attitudes during communion, singing, prayer, giving, and teaching. It emphasizes the importance of worshiping for the right reasons and with the right heart rather than performative or self-focused worship.
04 1 thessalonians 2v13 20 what helps the hurt
The document discusses what helps when people are hurting. It discusses that God's word within us, God's people around us, and God's glory before us can help. It explains that people appreciated, appropriated, and applied God's word. It also discusses that as individuals and as a church, God's people can help the hurt. Finally, it mentions that looking toward God's glory, such as the crown of souls saved, martyr's crown, pastor's crown, and crown of righteousness, can help provide perspective during difficult times.
Salvation 1-2-3
1. Salvation is found only through Jesus Christ, who is the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to God except through him.
2. God showed his love for mankind by sending his Son, Jesus, to die as a sacrifice so that all may be saved. Man is saved through faith in Jesus and believing in his resurrection.
3. Man has a body, soul, and spirit. Salvation involves the salvation of each part: the spirit is saved through justification, the soul through sanctification, and the body will be saved through future glorification when it is resurrected and transformed.

The Law of Jehovah is Perfect
We have become accustomed to conflicting reports and advancing knowledge, and often that leads us question whether we need more than the Bible; something modern and relevant. But God assures us that in His Word He has given to us all that we need for this life and the next. Some ideas for this lesson based in part on a lesson from John MacArthur (http://www.biblebb.com/files/MAC/80-18.HTM)
Tim's sermon "The Efficacy of the Word"
The document discusses the power and effectiveness of God's word as described in various Bible passages. It notes that God's word accomplishes its purposes and does not return void. Several verses affirm the truth and life-giving power of Jesus Christ and God's word. The document contrasts the law, which commands but is never fulfilled, with grace, which is received through faith. It encourages believing the promises of salvation found in God's word.

Day of Pentecost
On the Day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples as they were gathered together in prayer. They began speaking in other languages and praising God. When the crowd gathered, confused by what they were seeing and hearing, Peter stood up and preached to them about Jesus, telling them about his life, death, and resurrection. He told them this fulfillment of Joel's prophecy showed that Jesus was Lord and Messiah. Many in the crowd were convicted and asked what they must do to be saved, to which Peter told them to repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus to receive forgiveness of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Ephesians Byte by Byte#1 - 19 May 2019 - Bruce McCallum
This document discusses the concepts of grace and peace as presented in Ephesians 1:2 from multiple Bible translations. It explores how grace from God allows believers to find peace within themselves and with others through Jesus Christ. Having the peace of God, which surpasses understanding, can help guard believers' hearts and minds as it changes the world. The document suggests that truly understanding and experiencing the grace and peace from God mentioned in Ephesians 1:2 involves slow, thoughtful reading of the Bible verses.
Between death and the resurrection
The document discusses what happens after death based on passages from the Bible. It summarizes that:
1) The dead continue to exist, and are not in a state of "soul sleep" as some believe, as evidenced by passages like Luke 16 that describe the afterlife.
2) Everyone will spend eternity after death in either heaven or hell, and this eternal destination is unchanging once death occurs.
3) While the Bible does not give all details, it indicates that after death, one's condition and destination are fixed and unchangeable for everlasting punishment or reward. The document encourages preparing for eternity through faith in God during life when there is still opportunity.
Serve like a slave
This document discusses three things to remember when feeling tired of serving the Lord: 1) Think about how one used to be a slave to sin but is now free and righteous through accepting Jesus; 2) Appreciate one's new status as part of God's family and heir to eternal life; 3) Reflect on now being slaves to righteousness and God, which leads to holiness and eternal life. Several Bible verses are cited to encourage continuing to faithfully serve the Lord despite fatigue.
The sacredness of your work seth gatchell october 27 2019
People seem to approach their work from one of three paradigms. “I’m passionate about what I do. Either it clearly serves a good purpose and/or I get to utilize my passions and skill.” -OR- “I’m glad I have a paycheck. It provides for my family.” -OR- “I can’t wait til Friday.” This week we’ll look at how work has value, eternal value that can change my attitude about work and help me be more purposeful in my work.
2 Two trees
This document discusses the two trees in the Garden of Eden - the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. It argues that the Tree of Life represents dependence on God and receiving life from Him, as exemplified by Jesus Christ.

The document traces the "line" of each tree throughout biblical history and concludes that relying on the letter of the law kills but the Spirit gives life.

Exodus 31, When was the Sabbath changed, or, who changed the Sabbath,ss
The document discusses when and by whom the Sabbath was changed according to Scripture. It summarizes that the Sabbath was never actually changed and was always meant for Israel alone under the Old Testament law. It was given specifically to the Israelites in Exodus 16 and Exodus 20 reminds them of this commandment, not introducing a new one. While the Sabbath law required the death penalty for breaking it, Jesus fulfilled the law so Christians are no longer bound by it, but are under the law of Christ instead. The early church met on Sundays to commemorate Jesus' resurrection.

The sermon emphasized that the Christian's hope provides joy even in troubles and is made certain by

Building on the Right Foundation
This document discusses biblical passages related to material possessions. It contains verses from Proverbs 10:25, Luke 12:15, and 1 John 2:16-17 that warn against greed and the fleeting nature of material goods. The document is organized into sections on gathering materials, assembling methods, and standing still. It also references building a light house. Overall, the document examines what the Bible says about worldly desires and possessions versus doing God's will.
Nothing is too hard for God
The document discusses God's omnipotence and various attributes including that He is all-powerful, merciful, gracious, and faithful. It provides several Bible verses to support this, including Jeremiah 32:17 which states "Nothing is too hard for" God since He created the heavens and earth by His great power. God has unlimited power to do whatever He wills without effort. He is also infinitely compassionate and kind in His mercy, and inclined to spare the guilty through His grace. As faithful, God will not let humans be tempted beyond their ability and will fulfill all that He has said.
Flattining the curve
The document discusses flattening the curve by watching where you step, trusting completely in God rather than your own understanding, and not imitating evil works. It encourages keeping moving forward by staying on the right path and avoiding turning to the right or left from that path.
The Overcomers
This document discusses finding strength and faith in God. It encourages being courageous as God will strengthen your heart if you put your hope in Him. It also talks about giving undivided devotion to the Lord so that you can live rightly.
Enhance Spiritual Wellness
This document provides guidance on how to survive in perilous times and enhance spiritual wellness. It emphasizes integrating beliefs and values into action, doing the will of God, and knowing and doing what is right. It stresses the importance of being on fire for God by allowing fire to heat the cold, purify what is polluted, and eliminate what is worthless. It advises living without hostility by putting away bitterness and being kind, forgiving, and thinking on noble virtues. Finally, it instructs walking in love as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us.
A Time To Rebuild
This document discusses rebuilding for the future through faith in Christ. It includes several Bible verses about having wisdom and righteousness, God giving thoughts of peace and hope, and establishing faith while growing in God's grace. The overall message encourages rebuilding through continuing in the gospel with faith grounded in Christ.
Facing The New Year
The document contains several passages about maintaining faith and resisting drifting away from God. It encourages holding firmly to one's faith without wavering. It warns against being unequally yoked with unbelievers and instructs believers to separate themselves from unclean things. It advises standing strong with truth and righteousness. Finally, it suggests focusing on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and praiseworthy.
SPIRITUAL DROPOUTS
This document discusses reasons why some Christians experience spiritual dropouts or fail in their faith. It suggests that Christians can fail because they rely only on their own methods instead of remaining connected to God. They can also fail if they are influenced by immoral links or conform to worldly desires rather than transforming their minds. Additionally, some Christians fail because they do not cultivate virtues like faith, self-control, patience and kindness, or because they are overwhelmed by the demands of life instead of relying on God's grace through Jesus Christ.
What Does The LORD Require of You ?
The document discusses what God requires of humans. It says that Micah 6:6-8 indicates God requires humans to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. Additionally, it states God wants our full attention by keeping His commandments. God also wants our undivided and unreserved love. Finally, the document emphasizes that God should control our lives and that we are called to put off our old selves and live righteously according to God.
How To Overcome Relapse
The document provides advice on how to overcome relapse by not giving in to temptation or past vices. It recommends casting one's burdens on God, who is our refuge and strength. It also suggests learning to be truthful in what you say and not giving the devil opportunities by abstaining from evil. The key is to not give up and remember that God will reward your efforts to overcome relapse.
God's Principles for Christian Living
The document outlines three principles for Christian living:
1. Don't hold grudges and instead love your neighbor as yourself, as commanded by God.
2. Balance your work with other aspects of life, holding forth God's word in all you do.
3. Believe God's word found in scripture and act on it, as it is a lamp for your path in life.
Following these principles will help one live according to God's ways.
The Challenge
The document discusses Deut. 28:13 and Deut. 28:44 from the Bible which contrast being the head versus the tail. It then discusses the commission from Jesus for the church to go and spread the gospel since there are over 6 billion people in the world who do not know Christ. Jesus Christ is described as the best teacher who taught to love, lead, liberate, and launch.
The Whole Duty of Man
The conclusion of Ecclesiastes is that humans should fear God and follow his commandments, as this is humanity's purpose. God will judge all people's deeds, both what they do openly and secretly, and determine whether they are good or evil.
The Great Opportunities
The document discusses the great opportunities that Christians have to do good for others, to live for Christ, to choose the righteous path over the wicked, and to enter into heaven. It encourages believers to take advantage of the opportunities to serve, praise God, follow God's commands, and strive to enter the kingdom of heaven through faith in Jesus Christ.
Spiritual Spiritual Weapon to Win The Battle
We are in a spiritual battle and need strong armor from God to defend against attacks. The armor of God described in Ephesians 6 includes truth, righteousness, peace, faith, and salvation. Putting on the full armor of God equips us to stand against the devil's schemes.
God’s Providence
This document discusses a man named Tertullus accusing someone for enjoying great quietness and doing worthy deeds for the nation through their providence. Tertullus began to accuse this person when called forth. The document also mentions providence and contains a Scripture reading.
Journey
This document discusses the Christian journey of faith. Section I talks about God instructing and guiding believers. Section II contrasts the narrow gate that leads to life versus the broad gate that leads to destruction. Section III warns believers not to stray from the path. The final sections provide promises of God's divine nature, future plans for good, rest for the weary, strength for the weak, and a gift of peace.
The strength to conquer discouragement
The document discusses ways to conquer discouragement. It lists common causes of discouragement like fear of failure or unrealistic expectations. It then provides strategies like refilling your spiritual energy by reading the Bible and meditating on God's word. Another strategy is to remember who God is by remembering what he has done and his promises. He is always there and loves us. The final point is to cultivate perseverance and determination by keeping active and standing up after falls.
The Profession of our Faith
The document discusses holding fast to faith and righteousness despite difficult circumstances. It references several Bible verses exhorting believers to hold fast to their confidence and what is good. It then discusses heavy monsoon rains causing flooding in the Philippines and people needing to evacuate. Finally, it emphasizes that God is faithful to his promises even during trials and challenges people to hold fast to their faith in 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
