Fellowship everyone
The document discusses whether groups should fellowship with other denominations. It raises four questions: 1) Should we abandon logic since doctrines contradict each other? 2) Should we abandon our convictions to appear less arrogant? 3) Should we abandon scripture since some see it as outdated or open to interpretation? 4) Can there ever be unity among believers while maintaining logic, convictions, and scripture? It argues that while unity is desirable, it cannot come by abandoning these foundational principles of Christianity. True unity is founded on agreement with the teachings of Christ.

Take off the graveclothes
This document discusses Ephesians 4:17-24 and the need for Christians to shed their "graveclothes" and old sinful ways of living. It notes that as unbelievers, we all wore the same "graveclothes" and followed our sinful nature, but now as believers we must take off the old and put on righteousness. Specifically, it states that we must: 1) no longer walk as darkened and ignorant gentiles, 2) shed our hardened hearts, and 3) stop giving into sensuality and impurity, instead putting on the new self created in God's holiness. The document urges readers to examine if they are still holding onto old sins, and to remove those "graveclothes"

Who's your partner - Ephesians 5:1-7
This document provides a summary of Ephesians 5:1-7 regarding imitating God and avoiding immoral behavior. It makes three key points:
1) Children of God should imitate their heavenly Father by focusing on God's love and following Christ's example of sacrifice.
2) Children of God should not behave like "children of disobedience" by engaging in immorality, impurity, greed or crude speech. Such behavior is inconsistent with God's kingdom.
3) Those who behave immorally, through sexual sin or idolatry, will not inherit God's kingdom and invite his wrath. Christians should therefore not partner or associate with those living immoral lifestyles.

130804 eng shift series (part 4) by ps. cathryn loh
This document discusses walking with the Holy Spirit. It states that some people walk by sight, relying on human senses and experiences, while others walk by the flesh, satisfying carnal desires. However, the best way to walk is by the Spirit. The document outlines how to walk by the Spirit: acknowledge helplessness without Him, ask for His leading, activate faith in God's word, and act according to His prompting. Walking by the Spirit involves enjoying God's presence, overcoming struggles, and reflecting on what He says, leading to freedom and bearing the fruit of the Spirit.

The overall message is that through relying on God through prayer and having faith in him, and striving to become more like Christ in character, believers can overcome sinful desires and withstand worldly influences.

I AM ADOPTED - PTR. ALAN ESPORAS - 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE
This passage from Ephesians discusses what it means for Christians to be adopted by God. It contrasts the "old life" before salvation with the "new life" available through adoption. The "new life" involves imitating God, walking in love, living as children of light through the Holy Spirit, worshipping God, and submitting to one another in the church family. Through adoption, believers are given a new identity and inheritance in God's kingdom and are made part of His spiritual family with Jesus as the firstborn brother.

It encourages pursuing fellowship through meeting together, being open about one's life, and interceding for others before God.

BIG CHURCH 05 - BIG MOVE - PTR. ALAN ESPORAS - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE
The document discusses issues that arose in the early church regarding whether Gentiles needed to be circumcised to be saved. When Paul and Barnabas debated this with some men from Judea, they took the matter to the Jerusalem council. At the council, Peter, Paul, Barnabas, and James spoke about how God had saved Gentiles through faith alone. The council resolved that Gentiles did not need circumcision, but should abstain from idolatry, sexual immorality, meat from strangled animals, and blood. This decision encouraged the church and its mission to the Gentiles.
A Friend Indeed
The document discusses the importance of friendship in Christianity. It makes three main points:
1) Friendship must be proven through sacrificial love, as demonstrated by Jesus laying down his life for others.
2) Friendship must be practiced by loving one another as commanded by Jesus, as shown through kindness, loyalty, and mutual support.
3) Friendship must be proclaimed, so others know we are Christ's disciples by our love for one another. Christians are called to live out true friendship modeled by Jesus.

Joab was David's commander of the army and allied with him, but disobeyed David in two instances: killing Abner, the commander of King Ishbosheth's army, and killing Absalom, David's son who usurped his throne. The document outlines these events and Joab advising David at other times. It concludes by noting David commanded Solomon to kill Joab due to his disobedience, which overshadowed his good deeds.
Before you preach part 2
The document provides guidance for preaching based on 2 Timothy 4. It advises to preach sound doctrine using God's wisdom, be patient and let God's word do its work. It warns that some will reject the truth and surround themselves with false teachers. It instructs preachers to endure afflictions when preaching the gospel or pointing out apostasy, knowing that God is with them.
Before you preach. part 1
Moses stood up against false teachers despite facing frustration, requiring courage to stand outside one's comfort zone. Preachers should prepare for potential persecution from people and brethren who disagree, seeking only to please God rather than selfish ambition. Effective preaching requires using scripture as a sword to teach doctrine, rebuke error, correct faults, and instruct others as equipped by God, rather than focusing on the preacher.
Bringing christ into your marriage
This document discusses how to bring Christ into marriage through self-denial, trust, commitment, and forgiveness. It argues that just as Christians deny themselves, trust completely in God, commit fully to living for God, and forgive endlessly, spouses must do the same for their marriage: deny themselves, trust one another completely, commit fully to the marriage, and forgive each other repeatedly. Bringing Christ-like qualities to marriage is presented as key to having a successful marriage.
Hope
This document summarizes the key points from 1 Peter 1:3-9 about having a living hope as a Christian. It discusses that this hope comes from God and His promises, is made possible through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and results in an inheritance that is incorruptible, undefiled, and will never fade away. While God protects this hope, believers also have a responsibility to access it through strong and enduring faith. Even during times of suffering, Christians can rejoice in this hope because it leads to future glory in heaven that outweighs and lasts beyond any temporary afflictions.
The golden rule
The document discusses common philosophies of men such as feeling good, might makes right, and legalism. It then outlines how to properly apply the Golden Rule by being a good neighbor, avoiding gossip, not jumping to conclusions, and not seeking revenge. Finally, it notes the Golden Rule provides unique solutions for personal convictions, correcting religious errors, and granting forgiveness.
Log out
This document discusses the negative effects of always being logged into the internet. It summarizes these effects in 3 sentences:
When we are always logged in, we unplug our influence in the world, disconnect from our brethren, stop communicating with our family, and lose important moments with our Lord. Staying constantly connected online causes us to neglect shining our light before others, encouraging fellow Christians, teaching God's word to our children, and spending precious time alone in prayer. Being continually plugged into technology removes us from real-world interactions and disconnects our relationship with God.
Standing On the Shoulders of Giants
This document discusses standing on the shoulders of giants, referring to building upon the knowledge and work of those who came before. It notes that Isaac Newton and Bernard of Chartres used this phrase, and that the Israelites inherited the infrastructure built by others. Similarly, Timothy learned the faith from his mother and grandmother. The document encourages handing down the labor and teachings of early American Christians, following the Apostles' way rather than discovering new doctrines. It discusses debates that took place centuries ago but which we now have answers to thanks to the work of others. The conclusion exhorts developing an open but discerning attitude like the Bereans when evaluating arguments.
Does the end justify the means
This document discusses the concept that godly ends must be reached through godly methods, and that the end does not justify the means. It provides examples from the Bible where people tried to rationalize ungodly methods by citing good intentions or ends, but God was not pleased with their disobedience. Specifically, it references Saul offering sacrifices himself instead of waiting for Samuel, and Saul's decision to spare captured wealth from the Amalekites against God's command. The document cautions against compromising truth or disregarding God's will in order to achieve goals.
Shepherds for the chief shepherd
The document discusses the roles and responsibilities of elders in the local church. It states that elders have been given authority by God and the Holy Spirit to oversee the church. It encourages entrusting and committing elders to the Lord, as his plan for church authority is good. It notes that if elders set a strong example, edify others, and work joyfully, then the congregation will benefit and be strengthened. The document concludes by reminding readers that as members of the congregation, they should submit to their elders and always desire to follow the Chief Shepherd, who is Christ.
The office of a deacon
This document discusses the role and qualifications of deacons in the church. It defines deacons as servants who minister to others. The Bible describes the first deacons as meeting practical needs in the early church. To become a deacon, one must demonstrate qualifications of character, including being grave, blameless, and not greedy. Deacons must also have proven Christian experience and be able to manage their household and children well. The document encourages self-reflection on whether one's life already meets these qualifications before taking on the role of deacon.
The Universal Church and the Local Church
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Equipping the Saints Hezekiah
Hezekiah strengthened Judah against the Assyrian king Sennacherib by equipping Jerusalem militarily and spiritually. He rebuilt walls, made weapons, and ensured the city's water supply. However, it was ultimately God who saved Jerusalem, not military technology alone. The document also discusses how Hezekiah showed Babylon all his treasures, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy that Babylon would later rob Judah. It asks what motivates Satan to destroy homes, listing potential causes like sexual immorality, lack of doctrinal knowledge, and frustration leading to hate and gossip.
Those Who Desire to Be Rich
This document discusses wealth and the desire to be rich. It notes that while wealth itself is not evil and can be a gift from God, the desire to be rich can take one's focus away from God. References are made to passages in the Bible such as 1 Timothy 6:6-10, Matthew 5:23-26, and Ecclesiastes 5:10-17 that discuss the difficulties of the rich entering heaven and wealth not satisfying one. The rich man from Luke 12:13-21 is used as an example of one who focused on himself rather than God.
Slides for 7 15-8 am
The document provides guidance on managing finances in marriage from a biblical perspective. It discusses that money should not be loved over God and can destroy relationships if not properly managed. It encourages couples to be good stewards of what God provides and to make financial decisions together with integrity, trust, and open communication. Key issues that can harm marriages if not addressed include debt, lack of budgeting, selfishness over money, materialism, and failing to prioritize God and family over possessions.
Slides for 7 1-18 am
This document provides an introduction and overview for a study on preventing divorce by avoiding common pitfalls in marriage. It will cover positive actions and principles over multiple Sundays. The introduction discusses marriage, divorce and remarriage statistics. It also invites input from participants.
Key topics that will be covered include choosing the right mate, understanding roles, unrealistic expectations, compatibility, maturity, finances, and communication. Statistics on marriage trends like higher divorce rates for second and third marriages will also be presented. Common pitfalls like infidelity, finances, lack of intimacy, abuse and lack of commitment that can ruin marriages will be listed and discussed. Scriptures guiding Christian marriages will also be outlined.
The Church
The document discusses three temples in Haggai and how the glory of the latter temple is greater than the former. It provides context that in 538 BC, Zerubbabel and Joshua rebuilt the temple after the exile. In 520 BC, Haggai and Zechariah encouraged the people to finish rebuilding the temple despite delays. The temple was completed in 515 BC. God told the people rebuilding the second temple that the glory of this temple would be greater than the first temple built by Solomon. The greatest temple is the church, which Christ leads and cannot be destroyed.

This document discusses marriage, divorce and remarriage from a biblical perspective. It begins by noting the importance of using only the Bible as the standard for determining what is acceptable. The document then lists various positions that different religious groups take on the issues of divorce and remarriage, such as allowing it only for death of a spouse, for any legal cause, or for the innocent party in cases of adultery. It emphasizes that the word of God as revealed in scripture must be the sole standard used to evaluate these important issues.

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

Restore a Brother
- 1. He who turns a sinner from the error of his way… James 5:19
- 2. What is God’s goal for withdrawal? • 4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5 deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. • 1 Corinthians 5:4-5
- 3. Our treatment of the lost • 11 But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—not even to eat with such a person. • 1 Corinthians 5
- 4. Our treatment of the lost • 14 And if anyone does not obey our word in this epistle, note that person and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed. 15 Yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother. • 1 Thessalonians 5
- 5. Are we urgent to restore? • Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. 2 Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. • Galatians 5:1-2
