Life Devoted to Christ - 1Co.7:25 - 40 - Joe H.

Marriage is momentary, it is over at death, and there is no marriage in the resurrection. Wife and husband are secondary priorities, not the first, Christ is the first.

 

When we pursue Christ as the center of our lives, everything else will be put into the right perspectives.

 

God does not call all of us to be married, he calls us to be devoted to Him, to think about how to please Him, to be holy in body and Spirit.

Walking by Faith - Exo. 1:1 - 2:10 - Mark C.

If you are willing to trust what Jesus did on the cross for your sin, then forgiveness and peace with God can be yours.

 

God is at work even you can’t see it; God himself walks with us in the fire.

 

God brings about the great good through tested faith.

 

God uses the weak things in the world to shame the strong.

Jesus, the ultimate object of all worship - Luk. 17:11 - 19 - Jon M.

Jesus sees us, knows us, and understands our situation.

Conscience, Community, and the Kingdom - Rom. 14 - Ryan M.

We celebrate Christ’s coming to earth and his resurrection every day.

 

The Holy Spirit brings believers presently into the good of their coming inheritance. 

 

Whatever it is you believe, believe with conviction—own it. Whatever you do, do it with pure confidence.  

Loving Others and Serving God - Luk. 17:1-10

Trust God to be just.

The Confidence in the Lord - Psm. 27 - Jon M.

God is the one who saves his people.

Restored to Glory - Isa. 2:1 -11, 3:1 - 5, 4:2 - 6 - Luke C.

The proper order should be God’s people worshipping God so that God is glorified and people are satisfied.

 

I will take you to be my people and I will be your God.

Paradise is for the Repentant - Luk. 16 :14 -31 - Jon M.

True justification is through faith in Jesus Christ, not following rules and laws.

 

Those who repent and believe in Jesus are saved from torment and to paradise with the faithful.

Freedom in Christ - 1 Co. 7:1 - 24 - Joe H.

We are free by being content in God's grace.

 

All earthly conditions are under God's sovereign plan.

 

He has assigned this circumstance to us with a purpose.

Invest in Faithfulness - Luk. 16:1 - 13 - Jon M.

The expectation is that every follower of Jesus, everyone who has been born again, will live a new life of obedience. We still sin, but we’re not characterized by sin.

What he is saying, is that we, as sons of light, should learn how to use our resources as tools.

“Making friends” is not just with people, but it means we’re to use money in ways that pleases God, then as we please him, he will welcome us to be with him for eternity.

Investing faithfulness is a daily, life-long journey in a specific direction: following Jesus.
