08 the impact of tithing
Tithing is used to support the work of the ministry, including paying salaries of pastors and church workers. It shows faith in God as our provider rather than ourselves. Tithes should be given to the local church, which then distributes the funds to higher organizations to support the work of preaching the gospel around the world. While tithing is an expression of faith, it does not contribute to our salvation, as salvation is a free gift received through faith alone. Tithing benefits both the giver through God's promised blessings and the church's ministry through financial support to spread the gospel message.
what grace does
Grace teaches, changes, and empowers believers to share the gospel. Grace instructs Christians to renounce ungodliness and live righteously in the present while awaiting Christ's return. Grace redeems believers from sin and purifies them for good works, making them zealous to share the gospel authoritatively so that no one despises the message of salvation through God's grace.
Wired to go
God has commanded Christians to carry out good works and spread the gospel message to the whole world. The Bible prophecies that God's kingdom will consume all earthly kingdoms and stand forever. These prophecies were fulfilled when the early church began preaching and more people obeyed the gospel. Christians today have a responsibility to teach the whole counsel of God and not omit any part of the truth, just as Paul and others did. The gospel plan of salvation includes God's grace, Christ's blood, the Holy Spirit's gospel, faith, repentance, confession, baptism, Christian works, hope, and endurance.
The Rock
1) Peter was originally named Simon and was a fisherman from Galilee who was called by Jesus to be one of his disciples.
2) Jesus gave Simon the name Peter, which means "rock", and said he would build his church upon him.
3) Peter was a leader in the early church, preaching at Pentecost and performing many signs and wonders. He helped establish the church and its practices and preached the gospel to both Jews and Gentiles.
4) Peter was eventually martyred in Rome under Nero's persecution of Christians, being crucified upside down as he felt unworthy to die the same way as Jesus.
"Go & Tell", Part 1
This document discusses the difference between being a "fan" or a "follower" of Jesus, and encourages Christians to evangelize obediently. It notes that Jesus commanded his followers to go make disciples of all nations. While many people are ready to respond to the gospel, they just don't know how, so believers must evangelize regularly in their neighborhoods rather than waiting for specialists. Evangelism involves bringing people to faith in Christ and teaching them to obey all of Jesus' commands. Christians are called to "fish for people" and share the message of reconciliation with others.
40 Days: The Great Commission
This sermon focuses in on Jesus' appearance to His 11 remaining disciples on a mountain in Galilee. It begins with some background on Galilee today and in Jesus' day and then looks at the Great Commission itself. We specifically explore the reluctance of Jesus' disciples to go and make disciples of all nations and consider our reluctance both to go and to make disciples.
Matt 28:16-20 The Great Commission
The document discusses Jesus' commandment to his disciples to make disciples of all nations. It explains that this means transforming people into followers who learn from Jesus, not just converting them as believers. The key is to win people over through healing, bring them into community, and equip them to obey all that Jesus commanded through teaching. Disciples are made by discipling, baptizing, and teaching people to follow Jesus' example in their lives with his continual presence and support.

12 United To Christ Sef Eng
The document discusses how Christians are united to both Adam and Jesus Christ. It explores key Bible passages that show how through Adam's disobedience sin entered the world, but through Jesus's obedience righteousness and eternal life are available. The document emphasizes that believers are adopted as sons and daughters of God, made new creatures in Christ through baptism, and belong to Christ rather than being ruled by sin as sons of Adam.
The Beat - Our Mission
This document discusses Jesus' command to his disciples to go and make disciples of all nations by baptizing them and teaching them to obey all that Jesus commanded. It notes that despite humanity's fall into sin, God's mission remained to spread his glory throughout the earth. Jesus gave his followers the same command to multiply and spread his teachings. The document emphasizes that Christians now have a role to obey Jesus' Great Commission by preaching the gospel and spreading the message of reconciliation through Christ to redeem the fallen world. It encourages embracing this call and living as testimonies by praying for opportunities to share God's love.
2 corinthians 5:16 21
Paul explains that being "in Christ" means being a new creation, with the old things gone and new things arrived from God. God reconciled humanity to himself through Christ by not counting sins against people and trusting Christians with the message of reconciliation. Christians are therefore ambassadors representing Christ and begging people to be reconciled to God, as God negotiates with them through the church.
Changeless Gospel
The gospel does not need to change to keep up with the times. While fashions, occupations, politics, and governments change, the gospel remains perfect and complete. It was designed by God to be a spiritual guide that draws people to God, saves them from sin, guides them as Christians, and keeps them saved. The gospel was effective among first-century Christians and the early church. It is intended to endure for all time as the means to produce faith and lead people from earth to heaven. The world may change, but the gospel cannot because it is perfect and does not need improvement.
Amazing grace
This document discusses the origin, intent, extent, demands, hope, price, and response of God's grace according to scripture passages. God is the source of grace which brings salvation for all people. Grace teaches believers to reject sinful desires and live righteously as they await Christ's return. Grace cost God dearly through the sacrifice of Jesus to redeem believers and make them devoted to good works.
The Great Commission(s)
The document discusses the "Great Commission" passages found in the New Testament where Jesus instructs the disciples to spread his teachings. It analyzes the key aspects of the commissions given in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, and Acts. The author then synthesizes these passages into a single sentence describing being sent by God the Father and Son, empowered by the Holy Spirit, to witness to others about Jesus everywhere by making disciples, preaching forgiveness of sins, and releasing people from Satan's control.

When we give generously to God, He promises to bless and prosper us in return.

The local church congregation is the only religious organization endorsed.
churches of Christ
This document discusses the differences between churches of Christ.

THIS WORLD HAS NOTHING FOR ME
This document discusses the major decision of faith and lessons from Moses' example of faith.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
