Loose Him and Let Him Go!
In this sermon we look at some of what took place when Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. Jesus told Martha that if she would only believe, she would see the glory of God. Then when the Jews had seen the glory of God, they believed! Our church is called to believe and see the glory of God, especially in the lives of those who have been transformed, so that others might see might believe. The grave clothes that bound Lazarus needed to removed by those who could help him. We as a church need to be prepared to loose those who come to Jesus and find life from what binds them.
Free Indeed
Jesus said that we would “know the truth and the truth will make you free”. ‘Knowing’ is meant to be more than head knowledge. It is a relationship with the truth that produces real evidence of having that relationship – that evidence being freedom. This sermon encourages a deeper relationship with the truth of God’s Word that will produce genuine freedom from bondages and sin.
Tithing (2)
This is the second in a two-part series on tithing and covers the subject of reaping and sowing and how we receive “true riches” when we do it God’s way. We always want to be on the right side of what God thinks about finances!
Michael & LIsa Share about the youth camp in Spain. They also share about what the message is that God has given them for the next generation.
Tithing (1)
In this first of two sermons, a scriptural look at tithing reveals that the tithe is a “devoted” thing that belongs to the Lord. If kept from God for personal use, the “devoted” thing becomes an “accursed” thing. Ten percent belongs to God. You “pay” a tithe, not give it – giving begins after the tithe has been paid. The book of Malachi reveals that when we withhold the tithe, we rob God. We also see that the tithe is NOT part of the Law. Abraham tithed to Melchizedek 400 years before the Law was given. The tithe was part of God’s plan before the Law, during the Law, and after the Law. Jesus referred to tithing when He said to give to God the things that are God’s.
