James 4:1-6. adulterers and adulteresses. Submit to God. Resist the devil. Draw near to God. Cleanse your hands. Purify your hearts. Lament and mourn. Humble yourself. Speak not evil of one another. Spiritual adultery. l
Based on "Respectable Sins" by Jerry Bridges, this lesson describes how vile, ugly, and destructive sin truly is. In order to truly apply the remedy for sin, we have to see it for what it is. Sin is rebellion against the Law of God, but it is also despising the Person of God.
God's heart is redemptive in nature. God never quits on what He starts. He loves and saves to the uttermost no matter what the cost. In this 3-part series, our goal is to understand and capture the redemptive heart of God, so that we will learn to view life's situations with His redemptive heart and also learn to be co-workers with God in His redemptive process for things in our own lives as well as of those around us.

Remembering The Lessons Of 9/11 - Five Things We Must Never Forget - 09-11-16LifePointe Church
The tragedy of 9/11 changed our country and our lives forever. In a special message, Pastor Chuck Bernal share 5 important lessons from 9/11 that we must never forget. This message was delivered at LifePointe Church in Crowley, TX.
Why do you think James tells us to confess our sins to each other and pray for each other immediately following a discussion about healing? (5:14-15) Why is confession of sins a part of the healing process? (1 John 1:9) What should be our attitude and response toward those who confess their failure and sin to us? (Galatians 6:1) Have you ever had a relationship with a person or with a small group that involved confession of sins and personal offenses? If so, what was that like? What are some of the barriers that keep us from having that kind of a relationship? What are some cautions about confessing our trespasses to one another?

Sharing your testimony is much simpler than we imagine. Instead of thinking about your testimony as a whole, think of it as many little parts. Sharing your testimony RARELY involves sharing your WHOLE testimony. Think of it as sharing “spiritual potato chips” one at a time, that give people glimpses into your relationship with Christ.

What Should be the Christian View of Anime?Joe Muraguri
We will learn what Anime is and see what a Christian should consider before watching anime movies? We will also learn a little bit of Shintoism religion and hentai (the craze of internet pornography today).
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.

Proverbs 21:7 The robbery (violence) of the wicked shall
destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.
God hates injustice, and He sees
to it that injustice is brought back
upon the wicked.
All of life is good vs evil; choose the good.
Judgment = justice or right; honestly
Either in this world, or the next.
4. 4
8 The way of man is froward and strange: but as for
the pure, his work is right.
(NIV) 8 The way of the guilty is devious, but the
conduct of the innocent is upright.
We can know people by seeing the way
they live their lives.
One’s long term conduct reveals his mindset.
A liar lies because he is a liar.
A thief steals because he is a thief.
5. 5
9 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop,
than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
A mate, man or woman, who is
argumentative and quarrelsome,
is like a ball and chain.
1 Corinthians 13:4-5 (TLB) Love is
very patient and kind, never jealous
or envious, never boastful or proud,
never haughty or selfish or rude.
Love does not demand its own way. It is not irritable
or touchy. It does not hold grudges and will hardly
even notice when others do it wrong.
6. 6
Ephesians 4 31-32 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and
anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away
from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to
another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even
as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
“Let” -- we have to turn it loose.
The people of God must turn loose of all ugliness.
Love will end the brawling in us.
We are not justified in such behavior.
7. 7
Philippians 4 4-7 Rejoice in the Lord always: and
again I say, Rejoice. Let your moderation be
known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. Be
careful (anxious) for nothing; but in everything by
prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your
requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace
of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep
your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
People who are unhappy and worried tend to get
bitter, angry, and to talk ugly and hateful (brawling).
We need to trust God and grasp joy and peace.
8. 8
Philippians 4 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things
are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever
things are just, whatsoever things are pure,
whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things
are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if
there be any praise, think on these things.
9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and
received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the
God of peace shall be with you.
9. 9
Right thinking will produce
right words and deeds.
Jesus loves me.
I am victorious;
A victor, not a
victim..
I am blessed;
not stressed.
I am happy.
I have a good wife.
My husband
is smart.
God will
make it so.

10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbor
findeth no favor in his eyes.
The evil desires of a wicked man's heart, lead to
baseness in his conduct.
Matthew Henry Concise Bible Commentary.
He is mean to everybody,
even his close neighbors.
11. 11
11 When the scorner is punished, the simple is made
wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth
knowledge.
Very often the scorner does not learn from his
own punishment, but a follower may learn and
change his ways.
But it is best to learn from instruction.
We don’t have to learn the hard way.
