Top Five Good News Bible Verses - Brent Lokkerrfochler
Want to restore the joy of your salvation? Then consider these astoundingly joy-inducing scriptures. This is truly good news, not just partially good news! From a talk given by Pastor Brent Lokker at Blazing Fire Church 11-3-18. BlazingFire.org
Remorse is being sorry you got caught. Suppose you‘re driving fast and got caught by the police (because you broke the speed limit). You are remorseful because had you not got caught you would have kept driving fast. Repentance is being sorry enough to stop what you are doing and change your behavior.
We can see the concept of “thanksgiving” throughout the scriptures, and although it’s good to set aside a Thursday every November to be intentionally thankful, the Bible says much more about giving thanks than just one day a year can handle.

Part of the series on prayer; emphasis is applied to James 5.16. This is a basic PowerPoint regarding James 5.16. More points and words were spoken than contained in the PowerPoint.
In this lesson we start by debunking several prevalent lies about prayer that hinder us from praying as we should. We then move on to study the prayer life of Elijah. Amazingly, even though we learn that he was a man just like us, and thus subject to misplaced passions and a sinful nature, his prayer life was powerful and effective. (James 5:17-18; 1 Kings 19:1-8)
In our world today, there is one powerful kingdom. It is the kingdom of the rich, the kingdom of the learned, the kingdom of the leaders, the kingdom of the popular ones and the kingdom of the powerful. This is the kingdom of Satan. It is a kingdom of prosperity, of riches, of power and of fame, legal vs. illegal.
There is another drastic kingdom which is completely the opposite the kingdom of Satan. It is this kingdom found in John 12: 24-26.

John’s account of the death of Jesus Christ is examined using John’s affirmation that it is true, pointing to the fulfillment of prophecy, and most importantly that the work of redemption is finished as Jesus cried out in triumph. This lesson focus' on the final point.
The human being is not only a physical being(flesh), but it also has a spirit, then a spirit being. Hence man It is. written, Man shall not live by. bread alone, but by every word that. proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
This is my humble attempt to teach the biblical doctrine of election and predestination. This is a message just for Christians who trust that the Bible really does reveal the exact truth of what God thinks and does--at least of those things that He wants us to know.
God, of course, is much more than we could ever know! He is God Almighty!
If you are a Christian, I hope this message helps you know how incredibly special you are and what a sacred life you have been given to live for God and for others!
An overview of the bible
Since the beginning of time, there has been a plan for Jesus and our souls. God’s plan is revealed throughout the entire Bible! Many view the Old and New Testaments as unrelated, but there is an amazing message that begins in the Old Testament and carries through to the New Testament. The message is of God’s love and man’s redemption. That is what this booklet is about. I hope it will be an encouragement to you.
If you have any questions about the material in this booklet or would like to study further, please get into contact with me.
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. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
