Wage the Good Warfare

Paul's great concern for the congregation of the Lord's church is very apparent in these 3 verses. He knew there were some in the church at ephesus who had strayed from the truth and might influence others to do the same. He places responsibility upon Timothy to hold fast to the doctrine which taught men to put their trust in Christ.

Paul’s Prayer of Thanks

Paul begins this letter to Timothy by urging him to command those in Ephesus to teach only the doctrine of Christ. It was the only thing that could save mankind. Read verse 11 aloud. Paul states that the gospel had been committed to his trust. Proclaiming that gospel was a grave responsibility and a wonderful privilege. The eternal destiny of many precious souls depended upon him preaching that glorious gospel, the doctrine of Christ. In the next few verses, 12-17, he shows his gratitude to God.

The True Light

Thus begins John's account of Christ's life. Jesus, the Messiah, is eternal. He is deity. He is God. He is the creator and the giver of life. He is also the light of men. Then the writer John tells of another John. He tells of one who came to bear witness of the light. The aim of his work was so that people would come to believe in Jesus as the son of God (John 1: 6- 8). This John is often referred to as the Baptist or the Baptizer. The Old Testament prophesied about his coming (Isaiah 40:3-5, Malachi 3:1, then John 1:19- 28).

What Must I Believe To Be Saved? 

Many who claim Jesus Christ as their savior believe they are saved by faith alone.  They feel that by simply believing in Jesus as the Son of God and that He died for our sins will get them into heaven.   Believing in the original Greek can and often does mean more than a simple mental acknowledgment of facts.  God’s Word is written to others for us to read.  What it meant to them is what it must mean to us today.   

Lesson Text:  John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” “He who believes in Me has everlasting life” (John 6:47).  “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved” (Acts 16:31).

Theme:  The purpose of this lesson is to examine what the NT writers wrote to their readership concerning believing in Jesus with the goal of determining what they needed to believe to be saved and then make the necessary applications to our own faith.

Abortion

Abortion is the intentional ending of a life in the womb. It is not the same thing as a miscarriage or contraception.  It would be murder To end the life of a one-year-old child.  How, then, would it not be murder to end the life of a child still in the womb?  Does God consider an unborn baby a child? You will not find a “thou shalt not have an abortion” statement in the Bible, but god's word does reveal his will on this matter. 

Ezekiel 16: 21, “that you have slain my children and offered them up to them by causing them to pass through the fire.” God speaks of us as my children.

The Kingdom Of God

Our savior used the word Kingdom over 75 times, as recorded in the New Testament. He sometimes called it the Kingdom of Heaven, and sometimes he called it the Kingdom of God. Note how they are used interchangeably in Matthew 4: 17 and Mark 1: 14-15. Kingdom refers to God's kingship or rule from heaven. Often, in the Old Testament, this idea of God's domain and rule is his rule over the entire world.

He sits upon a throne, Psalm 103: 19. The host of heaven surrounds him, 1 Kings 22: 19, and He appoints rulers in the world, Daniel 2: 37, 4: 17. He is the king of the entire world, 1 Chronicles 29: 11, and his rule is everlasting, Psalms 145: 13.

However, the Old Testament speaks much about a Kingdom being established in the future. Note Daniel 2: 44, these kings—the Roman kings—and Daniel 7: 13-14. This kingdom did not exist yet, yet God promised it would one day.

The Power Of The Gospel

The apostle Paul writes a very personal and persuasive letter to his beloved friend Philemon. The subject of this letter is an extremely delicate one: slavery. This letter is a wonderful example of “speaking the truth in love” (Ephesians 4: 15). It is a letter of courtesy, warmth, and politeness, but its message is weighty and its persuasion is powerful. The keyword is “receive.”

The gospel of Jesus Christ has the power to change People

Removing The Landmarks

Beginning with the latter part of chapter 4 and continuing throughout the remainder of the book, Hosea often uses Ephraim as the designation for Israel, the northern Kingdom. Ephraim was the second son of Joseph- Manassa being first,  Genesis 41. But when Joseph's father Jacob blessed his two grandsons, Ephraim received the greater blessing. From the time of the exodus, Ephraim became one of the leading tribes. Possibly because Joshua, Moses' successor, was from Ephraim. In the land of Canaan, the tribe of Ephraim was given land in the central region- including Bethel, Shiloh, and Shechem. When the Kingdom became divided after the days of Solomon, Ephraim went with nine other tribes and formed the northern Kingdom. They appointed Jeroboam, a man from Ephraim, as their king. Thus began Ephraim’s influence in the northern Kingdom.

What Are We Saved By?

A man and woman were eating dinner at home. Suddenly man clutches chest.  He was having a heart attack. The woman calls 911. The EMT arrive in an ambulance. They use defibrillators and start the man's heart beating again. Question- what saved the man?  His wife, telephone, ambulance, EMT, the defibrillator?  Which one could be left out and the man still be saved? So what saved the man? They all did!   So it is with man's spiritual salvation. It's impossible to say man is saved exclusively by one thing only. Many things are involved and necessary for one to be saved.

When Life Gets Overwhelming

During our journey here on earth, times may become hard and discouraging. While these days are inevitable, we should not lose hope but look to God's word for hope. The Psalms in particular can lift us up when life becomes overwhelming.

Names Of God Part 3

Recall that Yahweh is the personal name of God. It means to be, or exist. Recall what he said to Moses in the burning Bush. I am that i am, exodus 3: 14, the eternal one – uncaused, John 8: 54-58.

This is the name used when God is making a covenant- Noah, Abraham, moses.

The name Yahweh. Each reveals something special about Jehovah.

Bobby Stafford Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God


Introduction:  I was first introduced to this sermon by Jonathan Edwards in college. Edwards would later become president of Princeton University. This powerful sermon struck fear in the hearts of its listeners when delivered in 1741. There are several lessons from this sermon which are biblically relevant for us to hear. (Adapted from Jay. Brody)

The Assembling Of The Saints

Introduction:  There is a growing belief among those who claim Christ as Savior that the assembling of the saints is unnecessary. The American culture at large has slowly come to the place of believing that a person can be a Christian without regularly gathering together with other believers in worship and fellowship. This is just not the case. The Christian faith is an assembling faith. The very word church in the Greek is “Ekklesia” which, in the ancient Greek, denoted a group called out to come to the assembly. Assembly is in the word Ekklesia.

It is claimed by some that new testament Christians did not assemble for worship, therefore it is not a requirement today.

Remember To Pray

Prayer is simply talking to God, Psalm 55: 16-17.   Prayer is a very natural part of our existence. Our heavenly father loves to hear our voices. We are encouraged to make our requests known to God the Philippians 4:6; To pour out our heart before him Psalm 62: 8.  We need to honor him by learning to speak to him according to how he has instructed us in this World - to learn the principles of prayer from scripture.

All Men To Be Saved

Christ purchased the church with his blood and he wants it to carry out his will on earth, 1 Timothy 2: 4.  God has given us this responsibility and we must take it seriously.

This was originally commissioned to his apostles and then to the whole church, Matthew 28: 18-20.  The primary emphasis is on the command to ”make disciples”.  This disciple making begins by being baptized. Then disciples are be taught to “observe all things that I have commanded you.”  Jesus wants his disciples to go and seek out others for discipleship. These new disciples are to come from “all nations".  See mark 16: 15.  What will help us to fulfill our responsibility?

Bobby Stafford Using Our Time Wisely

Most of us feel pressed for time; too much to do and not enough time to get it all done.  God has instructed Christians about time management; Ephesians 5:17-21. 

No doubt we live in evil times period as a result, we must use our time here wisely so as to conduct our lives in a godly way, Hebrews 3:12-13.

David Hersey The Word of God
Nothing More, Nothing Less, Nothing Else
God chose to reveal His will to mankind and His Word is recorded for us in scripture.  Contained within God’s Word are numerous statements that help us to learn about it.  God’s Word establishes itself as being complete, preserved and authoritative in our Christian lives.  The purpose of this lesson is to examine what God’s Word teaches about itself so we can have faith and confidence in it as our guide for living on earth and our instructions for getting home to live with our God and Father in Heaven forever.
