For our Thanksgiving meditation this year, we considered many of God's blessings. Some of us can thank God that we have a new baby this year, a new car, a new bathroom, a healthy spouse, a living parent or parents, children who are growing in knowledge and wisdom, and many other particular gifts...
2 Peter chapter 2 ends reminding us about the allure of false teachers and their apostasy. Their words are empty, they pray on weak Christians, and they promise the opposite of what they actually give. They had a so-called knowledge of God but were overtaken by the world. Peter takes false teachers very seriously, and so should we.
Guest speaker Pastor James Lorch charges his son Jansen at his ordination service to be a good shepherd, like the one we read about in Psalm 23. This shepherd feeds his flock, leads his flock, protects the flock, and cares for the flock. After the message, special prayer is offered for Jansen and his wife Kalee as they begin a new chapter in their ministry calling. The sermon connects Psalm 23 to New T...
Wisdom is found through diligent pursuit, and results in a deeper understanding of God and deliverance from tempting situations. For example, Proverbs 2 tells us wisdom delivers the wise from the crooked and devious paths of evil people and sexual sin. In the end, God's blessing is in store for the wise who are upright, but the end of wicked is death.
The gospel of Matthew is an account of the birth, life, and death of Jesus of Nazareth. Matthew, also known as Levi and a tax collector, wrote about the birth of Israel’s Messianic king, described the early announcement of the kingdom and the teaching of its king and his followers, recorded authenticating signs done by the king, explained how he was rejected by the leaders and many of the people of the ...
The church wages a spiritual warfare, in which false teachers play an important role. We learn the sinful ways of the false teachers, as well as their future judgment.
When there is a problem in the church, we must recognize that it affects the whole church, like Achan's sin in Joshua 7 affected the entire nation. Appropriate censure is called for and then if there is repentance, the church is to forgive, comfort, and renew their love for the former offender so that Satan will not get the better of the church.
A Christian definition is that joy is the affection associated with spiritual well-being, which is produced by the Holy Spirit in the life of the Christian. We spend the majority of our study finding many different reasons that the Christian can experience joy.
The words of Deuteronomy record Moses leading the people up to the end of his life, reminding them of the law of God, and calling them to faithfulness to the covenant.
In our study of 2 Peter 2, we learn that false teachers will come to the church, but we can be confident in God who protected His people of old from evil men. He judged the wicked and spared His children. The example of Lot reminds us that we need to take clear steps to protect ourselves against false teachers and their corruption.
Dr. Snoeberger introduces the important question: "Why am I here?" This question and its answer should govern every part of our lives. We can get a start on the answer by looking at Genesis 1. But in Psalm 104, there is a second and longer creation account, and it was written to answer that very question.
Dr. Snoeberger teaches on the subject of "personal eschatology." Heaven will be our intermediate home until the kingdom, which is on the earth. This is followed by the eternal state, what many simply call "Heaven," which is actually also centered on the renewed earth.
The fourth book of Moses, Numbers, recounts the preparation for entry into the promised land and the failure of the people to obey God and actually enter it. It then summarizes key events in the 40 years of wilderness wandering.
We reviewed that righteousness is the perfect conformity to God's holy standard in character and action. Job 4:17 reminds us that none are righteous like God. Scripture attests to God's supreme righteousness. Our sin highlights God's righteousness. And His righteousness is why I am condemned, but it is also why I am saved.
The apostle Paul made his ministry plans with Christian integrity but changed those plans when a better way to build up the Corinthians came into view. Paul spoke to the Corinthian church in a way that mirrored God's gospel promises in Christ--not ambiguously or equivocally but clearly, in accordance with how God speaks to us, with promises that are sure and unbreakable. But he realized th...
We studied the Christian character trait of compassion. The word compassion has the prefix "com" which means with or together. The second part is "passion," having to do with feelings. Compassion is therefore "co-feeling." It is defined by Webster as a "sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it." A synonym ius "pity." It is concern for the troubles, trials, or m...
In this message, we learn three lessons from the call of wisdom. First, wisdom is readily available to all people (v. 20-21). Second, wisdom comes to those willing to listen (v. 22-23, 30). Third, Refusing wisdom results in distress and anguish (v. 24-29).
Peter pens his epistle as an urgent reminder as one who knows his life is nearing its end. He declares himself an eye-witness of Christ's Kingdom, which is of great comfort to him, but above all, he is comforted by the true and infinitely authoritative words of scripture. All we like grass. “The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever.” (Isaiah 40:8)
Missionary Jack McMahan challenged our church today with these five key elements in any church that reaches the world: evangelism, discipleship, faithful leadership, faithfulness to Christ, and Christ-dependence.
Like in the book of Acts, our missionaries Jack and Bev McMahan report on the progress of their ministry. They are working with two churches, particularly in the areas of leadership development.
