Series passages that pump me up - part 12 - stupid choices & second chance...LifePointe Church
This is Part 12 of Pastor Chuck Bernal’s message series, “Passages That Pump Me Up”. This entire message is taken from the Old Testament book of Jonah. Jonah life can be summed up in four words, "STUPID CHOICES/SECOND CHANCES". In this message, Pastor Chuck discusses Jonah's situation and the liife lessons we can apply to our lives today. These life lessons deal with, rebellion, wrong attitudes and most importantly forgiveness and new beginnings. This messsage was delivered at LifePointe Church in Crowley, TX on Sunday, August 16, 2015
Verse One: “And I saw another mighty Angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire”
This is not an Angel it is Jesus, Revelation 1:11-19, Rev 22:13-16
Jesus was not triumphant in his triumphal entryGLENN PEASE
This is a study of how in the long run the triumphal entry of Jesus ended in failure, for the people did not accept Him as their king.
This is a perspective often missed, but Christians still see it as a great positive move of Jesus, and we celebrate it.
Pastor Jimmy finishes teaching from the book of Jonah this week. We see the main point that-- An injustice of our anger toward God is exposed through the justice of Gods compassion toward us in Jesus Christ.

Gold Of the Last Days
Prophecy about gold of the last days in James chapter 5, understanding the gold price markets, the economic affairs, and the pointers towards the prophecy
Many of us have an endless list of questions when it comes to Bible prophecy. It is quite possible that the more we study, the more confusing it all becomes. Taken from Dr. Jeremiah's "Answers to the Unsolved Mysteries of Prophecy" booklet, these charts will help you navigate through end-times prophecy and will answer your questions about the final days of this world.
This is a slideshow of some of the prophecy illustrations from our website - http://SanctuaryofYeshua.wordpress.com.
You can go there to learn more about the Bible prophecies of Daniel and Revelation and about the Sanctuary, or Tabernacle.

What does it mean to live for the larger story of your life? Author and speaker Os Hillman found that there are 6 unique stages God often takes a person through to fulfill the larger story of their life.
The context of 10-12 indicate that Antiochus Epiphanies is the subject matter of chapter 12 and not to force the text to say something it doesn't. A spiritual application would be: I. The hope of the suffering saint. "Many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt."
II. Secondly, the reward of the working saint. "They that are wise shall shine,"
III. The rest of the waiting saint. "Go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days."
Not a textual lesson on the chapter itself for it has been previously explained. This lesson deals with the concept of the kingdom of God and how the church IS the kingdom prophesied in Daniel 2.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

• The “sons of this world” (Luke 20:34) are those
people who are characterized by their devotion to
the things of this earthly life.

• “Son of man” (cf. Jeremiah 49:18,33) refers to one’s mortality, the condition

to that prophet.

• He undoubtedly wanted people
to know that though He is God,
when He came to the Earth,
He came in human form and
became fully human by taking
on all the frailties of human
flesh (Phil. 2:5-8).
• He undoubtedly wanted every
person to understand that “we
do not have a High Priest who
cannot sympathize with our
weaknesses, but was in all
points tempted as we are, yet
without sin” (Hebrews 4:15).
• Thayer suggests that Jesus
preferred this title “because by
its lowliness it was least suited
to foster the expectation of an
earthly Messiah in royal
splendor”
16. Jesus is “ConneCted” with the human experienCe
Because he is the “Son of man,”Because he is the “Son of man,”
he is our brother.he is our brother. Brotherliness
carries in it not only a sense of
kinship but likewise a disposition to
render help. Thus, brotherliness deals
not only with a relationship but also
with a most helpful disposition.
His brotherliness was not an act. To
him brotherliness is the very essence
of religion. Without brotherliness
there can be no religion that is
pleasing unto God. The old law had
said that man must not raise his hand
to kill, but Jesus taught that the
tongue must not sting (Matt. 5:21ff).
"If I cannot help them with my life I will
help them with my death. If I be lifted
up, will draw all men unto me.. When
they hear me praying for them with
my dying breath, they will be
convinced that I am indeed their
brother."
