Bearing One Another’s Burdens- Romans 14: 18-23 & 15: 1-6
Bearing One Another’s Burdens- Romans 14: 18-23 & 15: 1-6
“It’s wonderful to be encouraged but remember that the scripture encourages only those who persevere. It’s not enough to believe, you have to keep on believing. Your faith will be tested, you’ll go through trials. The scripture will bless you if you persevere. It says of Abraham, “After he had patiently endured he received the promise.” You remember how long his faith was tested? Something like 25 years he patiently endured, having the promise of a son who would be his heir. And then when he had patiently endured, he received the promise.”

Romans 14
The Law of Love- Romans 14:14-17
“I meet a lot of Christians who hunger and thirst after healing or prosperity. But I don’t meet very many who are hungry and thirsty for righteousness. But the blessing is on those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. And once you’ve entered into righteousness, peace and joy will follow as natural consequences. Don’t go for peace, don’t go for joy, make righteousness your aim.”
Love your Neighbor- Romans 13:8-10
Love Your Neighbor- Romans 13:8-10
“So any kind of teaching or preaching in church that does not produce love is fruitless discussion. It’s wasted, empty words. The only final goal of all teaching is love. The goal of our instruction is love.”
Submitting to Governing Authorities- Romans 13
Submitting to Governing Authorities- Romans 13
Why does God want good government? Because good government promotes or opens the way for the preaching of the truth of God. And that’s what God wants. But He places a great responsibility upon His church to pray that the government will do that.”
Behave Like a Christian
Behave Like a Christian
“The goal of our instruction is love. Is that true of us in the ministry? Is the thing that we’re aiming for love? Then Paul goes on to say if you get involved in anything, you’re just wasting time. Anything in the church that does not ultimately produce love is a waste of time and misapplied effort.”
Walking Out Your Faith Under Pressure Pt 1
Walking Your Faith Out Under Pressure Pt 1
“I suppose most of us who are trying to walk out the Christian faith would agree that today we are under pressure. All sorts of pressures: social pressures, spiritual pressures, mental pressures, emotional pressures. “This is where the rubber meets the road.” This is where our faith is tested. Will it stand the test?”

Building Christian Character- Thankfulness Pt 1 “There’s a great deal said about in the scripture within the theme of thankfulness. I’ll be presenting a whole series of scriptures and point out their implications and how they affect us.”
Hearing God’s Voice (How Can We Be Sure # 2) Pt 9 “Can confirmation of God’s directions come through fellow believers, our leaders or our parents? These people are set in positions of authority in our lives and thus can speak into our lives to bring confirmation of God’s will. Are you prepared to listen to others?”
Hearing God’s Voice (How Can We Be Sure?) Pt 8 “How can I be sure I am really hearing God’s voice and it’s not my own thoughts or the voice of the enemy?” Listen and find out the three important ways to know with certainty that you are hearing from God.”
Hearing God’s Voice (God Sets The Time & The Place) Pt 7 “Using examples from the lives of Moses, Elijah and Jeremiah, it’s illustrated how God picked the time and the place to meet with them. It’s important to get away to a place of quiet stillness so we can focus wholly on hearing from God. Often God speaks in a gentle whisper.”
Hearing God’s Voice (Four Requirements) Pt 6 “Four requirements for hearing God’s voice. To determine these points, we turn to the book of Proverbs to bring out undivided attention, humility, open-ended time and quietness.”
Hearing God’s Voice From The Heart Pt 5 “Cultivating a sensitive heart means having our hearts in tune with God’s voice—hearing and paying attention to Him. This is the real key to true blessing. Solomon prayed, “Give me a hearing heart.” Make that prayer your own.”
Hearing God’s Voice Produces Faith Pt 3 “Many people struggle to find faith—they run to and fro trying to find it. They haven’t yet discovered the secret of faith. Faith comes by hearing God’s voice. If you don’t have faith, you can get it. Faith can be cultivated. Listen to find out how faith comes.”
