The Danger of Loving Money
Text: 1st Timothy 6:6-10 What should the attitude of the Christian be towards money? Well, it is certainly one of the necessary things of life that is used to purchase food, clothing, transportation, shelter, and services of various kinds. It is also used to bless others by meeting their needs. Moreover, we are commanded by God to regularly bring our tithe into the Lord’s house and thereby receive his blessing. Yet, we should also know that money can be a temptation, and snare and a pathway that leads to our own destruction. Jesus warned his disciples “No one can serve two...

Text: Psalm 121:1-8 Every year each Israelite male was required by the Lord to make three pilgrimages to Jerusalem; for Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles (see Exodus 23:14-17, 34:22-24; and Deuteronomy 16:16-17). As Israel’s borders grew it became very difficult to make these lengthy journeys, and so it was customary for the people from the outlying areas to go Jerusalem only once a year. The Law did not require women and children to make this arduous trip, however in many devout households all family members would go. You may remember that the Lord Jesus went on one of these pilgrimages...
Read MoreThe Marks of a False Teacher
1 Timothy 6:3-5 If you know your Bible well, then you can spot a false teacher by his doctrinal aberrations and irregularities (cf. Deuteronomy 18:20-22; Matthew 7:15-20; 2 Corinthians 11:13-15; Galatians 1:8-9; 1 John 4:1-6; 2 Peter 2:1-22; and Jude 4, 8-16).

In this particular passage Paul identifies certain marks in a...

Text: Matthew 28:16-20 Guest Preacher: Pastor Yelton Why should anyone become a disciple of Jesus Christ? Because Christ has been given authority over everything and everyone, and all people must submit to His authority. Anything less would be to rob Christ of that which is His. Regrettably, human nature, far from submitting to that authority, is in rebellion against Christ and His rule. Therefore, people must receive the renewal that comes through the gospel. Our responsibility is to promote His kingdom, and we are assured that Christ Himself will be present with us to help us. Then, people...
