Sin is a living, dynamic, evil force which affects all human beings. Paul referred to this evil force as ‘the law of sin,’ which he states ‘reigns within our mortal bodies.’ If we are to overcome this ‘law of sin’ which reigns within us, we must utilize the Power of God’s Holy Spirit which one receives from God at the time of one’s baptism. It is only through this Power from God that one will be able to defeat and overcome the “law of sin” which reigns within us.

As true Christians, we must properly understand the role and function of God the Father and Jesus Christ, the Son. When the New Testament speaks of “God,” it mostly refers to the Father, while the word “Lord” generally describes Jesus Christ. Christ identified Himself as the Lord; so did angels, and so did many of the New Testament writers. The word “Lord”–“kurios” in Greek–conveys the meaning of “controller, God, Lord, master, sir and owner”–one who is in authority, and to whom “service is due on any ground.” We must obey Jesus Christ, our Lord, recognizing that He is also God. This includes, consenting heartily to His commands, without being ashamed of His words, and walking worthy of Him. We are to love Him and His appearing, while eagerly waiting for His Coming without fear.

Christians are admonished by the apostle Paul to Stir up the gift of God which is in you! This gift, which one receives at the time of his baptism, gives to a Christian the ability to truly follow in the Way of God. Many, however, who have received this precious gift, do not exercise it regularly, thus allowing God’s Spirit to slowly slip away. A true Christian must be diligent to see that he is utilizing this precious gift every day of his life.

A telling barometer of our Christianity can be found in the way we conduct ourselves in relation to our family. We need to be able to recognize the warnings contained in God’s Word and take proper action to correct problems within our family. The Bible explains about Who instituted the family; about how to properly conduct family life; and–importantly–what our individual roles are as members in both our human families and that of the Church of God.

OT and NT
Scriptures clearly reveal that being unequally yoked is wrong, particularly in
marriage.   True Christians
must marry only in the faith to another baptized member as marriage is a holy
estate and the most supreme way of sharing in the life of another person.   Failure to comply with clear
Biblical admonition may well lead to matrimonial difficulties as well as the
possibility of being drawn away from God. 

When we pray to the Father “in Christ’s name,” what exactly do we mean? This phrase must not be used without comprehension of its meaning, lest it becomes a vain repetition. The concept that “in Christ’s name” only means, “by His authority,” is incorrect, as much more is included. The fact that we are granted permission to approach God the Father directly, as we were reconciled to the Father through Christ’s Sacrifice, is also important–but it, too, does not give the full meaning of what is all involved. What, then, did Christ mean and what did He want to convey to us, when He told us to pray to the Father “in Christ’s name”?

Christ understood the correct way to draw close to God and to call upon His Power to help in every need. The prayer of our Lord, recorded in Matthew 6:5-13, brings out most of the points we should remember as we come before God in prayer and supplications to Him.

Of all the things that we face as Christians, finishing our calling is our greatest challenge! Having chosen to follow Jesus Christ in answer to God’s calling, we also must finish what we have begun.

What happens to man after death? Will man’s “immortal soul” go to heaven or hell, when man dies? Will it stay in limbo or purgatory? Will it be reborn in a cycle of reincarnations? The Bible teaches consistently that man’s soul is mortal; and that man’s only hope for life after death is through a resurrection from the dead. But the Bible also teaches that not everyone will be brought back to life at the same time, or in the same resurrection. The Last Great Day teaches us the important truth of the resurrections of the Bible.

Today, real
leaders are in short supply.  
But God is not going to be caught short-staffed.   He is not planning on down-sizing
the ranks of His royal priesthood in the coming reality of His Kingdom.   If we now prepare wisely and
carefully, we will be glad that we did. – and so will those who will need our
leadership skills in the future!  
By diligently preparing now to become an effective leader, we will be
fully prepared to answer the call when the final trumpet is blown – summoning
those whom God has called and trained to lead the world in His ways in the
wonderful world tomorrow.

The rejoicing when this day is fulfilled in the future with billions resurrected and given a chance of eternal life.

God is training us to become what He wants us to be, as members of His Family! To achieve this high calling, we must learn the reality concerning ourselves and we must come to understand that God expects to see change from what we are today!

The Bible contains many mysteries. Only those who have received special knowledge from God can understand these mysteries. The world at large does not comprehend God’s Word, as it has not been given the vital keys to unlock the mysteries of the Bible. However, it is critical for God’s people to understand and treasure these mysteries, as they reveal to us the entire plan and purpose of God’s Will for man. In this sermon, we will discuss fourteen mysteries, which are mentioned in God’s Word.

As emissaries of the Kingdom of God, we have a means of contact — and that with God Himself! That contact is prayer, and we need to come to a deeper understanding of the role of prayer in our calling; in our development as Christians; and in our representation of God’s government.

The world will be transformed into a place of peace with everyone keeping the laws of  God during the  millennial rule of Jesus Christ.

“We live in a country full of blessings – Blessings given to us by God. Bet WE have been given an even greater blessing: God’s Holy Spirit. Are we using it to it’s fullest potential? Or, like the modern descendants of Israel, have we forgotten who we are and why we are here?
We must proactively seek to please God, not just reactively, in order to keep our blessings (both physical and spiritual) alive”

We are preparing to be priests and kings in the World Tomorrow. God regards Samuel an outstanding priest. He was judge, prophet, priest and authored 5 books. 12-points are examined: 1)Samuel’s unusual birth and vow, 2)Eli’s wicked sons, 3)God appears and speaks in person to Samuel, 4)Philistines capture the ark of God, 5)Samuel preaches repentance, 6)Schools of the Prophets, 7)God’s government rejected, 8)Samuel establishes the monarchy, 9)God and Samuel dealing with Amalek, 10)Samuel and David’s relationship, 11)Samuel’s last years, including authoring a book on royalty behavior, 12)Witch of Endor–was Samuel brought up from the dead?

In Hebrews 3:7 and in Psalms 95:7 we read, “Today, if you will hear My voice, Do not harden your hearts…” God speaks to us in numerous ways; yet the Scripture tell us in John 5:37 that no man at that time had ever heard to voice of God nor seen His form! Do we, today, hear God’s voice and understand His purpose such that we can truly follow in His Way?
