M2013 s41 raising our boys to become real men part 3 6 2-13 sermonJames Bradshaw
This document discusses qualities of real men based on 1 Timothy 3:1-7. It provides several points:
1) Real men are not given to wine or drunkards. They avoid intoxication and bad behaviors that result from drinking.
2) Real men are not violent but gentle. They are not always looking for a fight and have patience.
3) Real men are not greedy for money. The love of money leads to evil and temptation.
4) Real men are not quarrelsome. They pursue peace and avoid being contentious. The goal is to edify others, not argue.
This document discusses the problem of dishonesty and deceit. It begins by listing some common forms of deceit like slander, exaggeration, insinuation, silence, and hypocrisy. It then discusses identifying the motives behind deceit, such as fear, malice, greed, and peer pressure. Finally, it notes that deceit displeases God, destroys relationships, and damns one's soul. The overall message is a call to honesty and integrity by admitting problems with deceit, identifying the motives, and remembering that deceit only leads to misery.
Pastor Elio Marrocco's "Gossip" sermon at New Life Christian Church on February 15, 2013. You can learn more about New Life Christian Church here: http://www.newlifecc.ca
The document discusses the prohibition against using God's name in vain as outlined in the Third Commandment. It describes four main ways people misuse God's name: through curses aimed at damning others, spurring hatred by invoking God's name to justify bigoted statements, making empty oaths where promises to God aren't kept, and using God's name to deceive others and gain their trust dishonestly. The document warns that those who claim to follow Christ but still use God's name in vain risk ending up in the Lake of Fire alongside other evildoers.
This document contains notes from a study series on gossip held at Central Union Church of Christ. It discusses how gossip is addressed in the Bible, distinguishing it from casual sharing of information. Gossip is defined as revealing private or potentially embarrassing details about others without their consent. Both men and women can gossip. The Bible describes gossip as sinful and lists it among other sins like murder. Christians must guard their tongues and avoid spreading rumors or badmouthing others.
The document discusses the origins and meanings of words related to victory and struggle found in the Bible and used in the slogan "the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat". It notes that Nike comes from the Greek goddess of victory and is used once in the New Testament. It also discusses words related to struggle/defeat like "agon" and how forms of them are used in passages exhorting believers to fight for and defend their faith.
This document is the newsletter from a church providing announcements for upcoming events, including a men's fall retreat and bible school, as well as prayer requests. It discusses the gospel passage from Mark 12:13-17 where the Pharisees and Herodians try to trap Jesus with a question about paying taxes to Caesar. Jesus responds by saying "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's." The homework assignment asks whether God is the ultimate authority and to examine decisions to see if actions reflect belonging to God.
Sin needs to be dealt with to enter into relationship and remain in fellowship with God. Jesus’s death pays not only for your sins, but the resulting damage and injury as well.

1. The document discusses the dangers of compromise in worship, using examples from the Bible. It describes how Solomon compromised and turned to idolatry due to his foreign wives, and how Jeroboam established counterfeit worship sites and rituals to prevent Israelites from worshipping in Jerusalem.
2. It then analyzes the confrontation between Elijah and the prophets of Baal, noting their zealous but misguided worship styles, and draws parallels to overly emotional worship services today that lose sight of the purpose of worship.
3. The key lesson is that compromise, even gradual compromise, in worship can have serious negative consequences, and worship should avoid becoming a hype or spectacle but instead focus on reverence and

The document discusses the importance of diligently studying the word of God from scripture alone. It emphasizes that scripture is the absolute truth and authority. When the word of God is handled casually, it can lead to false teachings being spread and people led astray. Proper interpretation requires understanding the type of speech used in scripture and interpreting each text in its proper literal context.
The document discusses the dangers and sources of gossip and division within churches. It provides several Bible passages condemning gossip and urging unity. Gossip stems from issues like carnality, jealousy, desire for position and biblical illiteracy. Churches should have zero tolerance for gossip and slander in order to remain unified and protect members from harm.
The document discusses how to overcome the world as a Christian. It explains that there are three things that make up "all that is in the world" - the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. It provides examples of how these manifest and encourages believers to overcome temptations and cravings by putting their flesh to death through repentance and fasting. The ultimate goal is to die to the world and be led by the Spirit of God instead of yielding to sinful desires.
This document is a 3-part homily given by Domenic Marbaniang in 1998 on the topic of "The Just Shall Live by Faith" based on Romans 1:17. The summary focuses on the key points:
1) Part I discusses how the life of the just begins by faith - through God's unmerited grace and man's response of faith which results in justification and eternal life.
2) Part II examines the continuity of life by faith as an ongoing process of perception, protection, and progression through continually relating to God empirically, cognitively and meaningfully via scripture and submitting to His will.
3) Part III addresses the consummation of life by faith
The document discusses the themes of joy and avoiding complaining according to a passage in Philippians. It notes that modern society tends toward discontentment and discusses how complaining was common among Israelites and is a sin for believers according to scripture. It analyzes terms related to grumbling and disputing used in Philippians, emphasizing that Christians should accept all circumstances willingly and without negative attitudes.

The document discusses the importance of listening according to the Bible. It provides several quotes emphasizing how God's people did not listen to prophets like Jeremiah, which led to consequences. The document encourages listening to God by reading the Bible, praying, and repenting in order to strengthen one's relationship with Him. It warns that the desolation of Jerusalem serves as a solemn warning for modern times to heed counsel from God.
The document discusses salvation during the Tribulation period. It argues that only those who are deceived will take the Mark of the Beast, as Revelation states those with the mark were deceived. It also argues salvation during this time will be by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ, as Revelation says the overcomers overcame by the blood of the Lamb. It notes Tribulation believers are referred to as fellowservants, brethren, and saints. The document suggests self-defense may be prohibited for believers during this time based on passages in Revelation.

This document discusses Ellen White's warnings about the "alpha" and "omega" of dangers facing the faith, with the "alpha" being represented by Dr. Kellogg's book Living Temple and theories in 1904. She warned that a "omega" would follow with a more startling nature. It provides historical context for Kellogg promoting pantheistic views and unsound policies, with White providing counsel and warnings. The nature of Christ and sin are also discussed, with the importance of not departing from the faith or teachings of the Bible.
This document discusses how Christians can unintentionally strengthen the hands of the wicked by undermining or hindering the truth. It gives examples of how apologizing for or criticizing truthful teachings that rebuke sin can hinder the spread of truth. The document warns that failing to clearly define sin and apply scriptural teachings can blur the lines between right and wrong.
A VERSE BY VERSE COMMENTARY ON I PETER 2 VERSES 1 TO 12 DEALING WITH GETTING RID OF SIN BY CRAVING THE MILK OF GOD'S WORD, AND THE PRIESTHOOD OF ALL BELIEVERS.
Sin originated with Lucifer's pride and rebellion against God in heaven. Lucifer attempted to dethrone God and establish himself as equal to God, which was the first sin. When humans sinned by disobeying God in the Garden of Eden, sin entered the world. The Bible defines sin as anything that goes against God's will, standards or laws. There are sins of commission by doing what is wrong, and sins of omission by not doing what is right. All humans sin and fall short of God's glory. The nature of sin is that it defiles, is rebellion against God, and shows ingratitude despite all God provides.

Paul taught the gospel in Thessalonica despite suffering opposition. He preached boldly and sincerely without impure motives, working hard but putting God first. Paul cared for new believers like a mother or father, encouraging and exhorting them. Some accepted the gospel enthusiastically as coming from God, while others became enemies opposed to the message.
The document discusses changing one's mindset and focusing on positive things. It suggests being content in any circumstances, having strength through God, renewing one's mind not to conform to the world, keeping one's mind hopeful and focused on God's grace, and setting one's mind on heavenly rather than earthly things. The document advocates focusing one's mind on things that are true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, of good repute, and worthy of praise in order to have a unique and positive mindset.
Anna was a prophetess in the temple who fasted and prayed constantly for over 60 years, even as a widow. When she saw Jesus in the temple with Mary and Joseph, she praised God and shared the good news with all who were waiting for redemption in Jerusalem, serving as an example of devotion and faith despite age or past circumstances.
We should want to go to heaven for three key reasons: 1) God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit will be there, as well as biblical heroes and children. 2) We will spend eternity praising God. 3) There will be no more sin, sorrow, or separation from loved ones like on earth. Heaven is described as a fair land that believers can see by faith.
The document discusses the mercy seat from the Old Testament, which was the gold covering of the Ark of the Covenant where God met with the high priest. It says in the New Testament, our mercy seat is represented by taking communion together as a community, where we remember Jesus' blood sacrifice and find calm, Christ, community, and comfort. The passage encourages believers not to take for granted gathering at their mercy seat of communion.
