Jesus healed a man blind from birth and when the man was questioned about Jesus' identity and motives, his reply was simply this, "Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see" (John 9:25).  The man sensed his need for Jesus.  Do you KNOW this ONE THING?  You and I need Jesus!!]]></content:encoded>

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Larry Miller, 78, of Plattsburg, MO passed away, March 31, 2026.

He was born on July 14, 1947, to Claudie and Esther (Sweat) Miller in Stanberry, MO. Larry grew up in Stanberry and graduated from Stanberry High School in 1965. He then served his country in the U.S. Army during Vietnam War from 1966-1969.

On July 10, 1971, he was united in marriage to Judy (McGaughey) Miller. From this union they were blessed with two children. After their marriage, they lived in Savannah and St. Joseph and in 1993 moved to Plattsburg.

Larry worked for MoDOT for 30 years and retired as the Supervisor at the Plattsburg Barn in 2002. He also farmed for the 4D Ranch for 22 years. Larry loved to fish, go camping, and they enjoyed spending the winter in Texas after their retirement. He especially cherished time spent with his grandchildren.

He was an active member of the First Baptist Church of Plattsburg where he faithfully served as a Deacon and on many committees.

Larry was preceded in death by his parents, sister, Lila Sue Laizure, and several beloved brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law and extended family.

He is survived by his wife, Judy; children, Andy (Kristi) Miller and Gina (Forrest) Schubert; godchildren, Tim (Michelle) McGaughey and Becky (Dave) Hoffman; grandchildren, Baylee, Taylor, Kendall, Brooks (Kristin), Adeline, Gracelynn and Blake; great-grandson, Zyaire; sister, Lula (John) Locklin; brother, Mickey Miller; several nieces and nephews, other relatives and many friends.

The marvelous truth isn't that we need a Savior but that God sent his Son to save the very ones who rejected his gracious offer.

Jesus taught great truths to using simple illustrations like the parables of lostness in Luke 15 about a lost sheep, a lost coin and a lost son.  These stories give insight into the heart and love of God for sinners.  God longs to save the lost and rejoices everytime a person repents and believes in His Son, Jesus.

Sharing our faith in Jesus with others should come from the overflow of our relationship with Jesus.  Our words and actions should be filled with joy and thanksgiving for our salvation rather than guilt that we have to "say something about God."   Pray for God to prepare your heart and the hearts of the people you meet that SOMEONE will be ready and eager to hear what Jesus is doing in your life.]]></content:encoded>

Whether you are a fan or not, you probably heard or said something like this . . . "What did you think about the US winning gold?" We are often reluctant to bring up spiritual topics with our friends or families because we do not want to cause trouble.  Jesus wants his disciples (obedient followers) to tell others about him.We are not expected to "win" debates or to "convert" people, we are commanded to point others to Jesus.

We call these directions "The Great Commission," but shouldn't we call them "The Great Omission"? We talk about the people and the things that matter most to us, but if we aren't mentioning Jesus then how much does He matter  to us?

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Children who are in the "terrible twos" display selfish characteristics whose favorite word is "MINE"!

Truth comes from God and is for all people in all places at all times.  His Word remains the same just as God Himself remains the same.  God is faithful and dependable.

As Paul ends his letter to believers in Rome, he mentioned over 25 people by name that had impacted his life and work.

As followers of Jesus Christ, we have a responsibility to build up one another, to help one another, to live in harmony with one another and to worship God the Father and the Lord Jesus with one another.

God has persistently, steadily, relentlessly pursued a relationship with each person.  It may seem as though we are the ones reaching out to God for his help and for salvation, but it all starts with Him pursuing us.  Jesus said, "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him" (John 6:44).

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Sue Elizabeth Redden was born on December 21, 1933 at home on the family farm in Ray County, MO. She graduated from Polo High School, Polo, MO, in 1951, and received her baccalaureate from Central Missouri State Teachers College at Warrensburg, in 1955. She and Ron married on February 11, 1956. Throughout their married life, Sue and Ron moved, usually with his work, living in California, Missouri, Ohio, Nebraska, Florida, and, finally, in Knoxville, TN. For most of that time, wherever she lived, Sue taught school, first as a primary grade teacher and reading specialist, and then, after her children were born, as an elementary school substitute teacher.

The majority of their married life, Sue and Ron called Plattsburg, MO home, where they were long-time members of First Baptist Church. Sue sang in the choir, served as Sunday School superintendent and teacher, and both directed and taught vacation Bible school. Sue was a member of the Women's Missionary Union. In her youth, Sue loved riding horses. She was an accomplished pianist and an avid flower gardener, with a particular interest in Missouri wildflowers. Sue enjoyed playing bridge with her bridge club and maintained an active involvement in civic life as a member of PEO and the Plattsburg Reading Circle. As a mother, she was firm but loving and not without a sense of mischief. She was called "Nana" by her grandchildren, who experienced her as, in their words, "magical."]]></content:encoded>

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[In his 1854 book Walden, Henry David Thoreau wrote, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation." With all the advances in medicine, technology and conveniences, one would expect life to be easier, not harder to live today.  But this is not the case.  People seem more disconnected from each other and from faith than at any other time.  The Gospel is still necessary because people are still broken and still need forgiveness.  Jesus continues to bring life, salvation and hope to those who believe in Him.

Christianity is a faith based on historical facts reliably and accurately revealed to us through the Bible, God's Holy Word.  The truths of our faith are non-negotiable. They are certainties we believe not suggestions that we pick and choose what suits us.  Besides the core beliefs of our faith which we must believe to be born again and those areas of morality where the Bible speaks clearly, there may be other areas where believers hold differing conviction and should respect and take each other with grace and love.  Paul addresses two areas in Romans 14 - food and holy days.  He counsels both weak and strong believers to hold onto their convictions in these NON-essential areas but to refrain from arguing or passing judgment on their brothers and sisters in Christ.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[The fall brings cooler temperatures, spectacular colors  and shorter hours of daylight.  Evening hours seem later now that it gets dark about 5 pm. The Bible tells us that the culture around us is dark and will continue getting darker prior to the Lord's return.  Rather than becoming afraid or withdrawing from the world, Paul challenges believers in Christ to wake up, put off sin, put on the Lord Jesus and shine the light of the Gospel.

A dispute arose in the early church that some of the Greek widows were not receiving aid in proposition to Jewish widows so the apostles selected men to serve the church (Acts 6).  First Baptist Church has set aside a man to the office of deacon who will join the other deacons in working alongside the pastor to meet the needs of the church.]]></content:encoded>

People were confused . . . Jesus was clear.  Jesus came to seek and to save lost people.  He did not come to deliver us from political oppression but to deliver from the bondage of sin. When asked whether it was right to pay taxes, Jesus famously replied, "Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and give to God what belongs to God" (Matthew 22:20). Christians are to submit to, show respect for and pray for those govern us and to pay taxes.

We even choose to love difficult people because it is the right thing to do. But is God asking too much of us when he commands us to love our enemy and to pray for those who seek our downfall? Paul gave direct instructions to believers in Romans 12.

Those words ring hollow not just with our children but unbelievers who are looking to see if what we say we believe is actually how we live.  Paul gave very simple yet incredibly difficult instructions to believers in Romans 12.

No one enjoys being around a selfish person who only looks out for himself.  As disciples of Jesus, we should think properly (humbly and soberly) about ourselves, others and what God  wants to do in and through us to build up the body of Christ.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Four times in the book of Romans, Paul pauses to review and challenge Christians to decide and to act on what he has been teaching them (3:20, 5:1,  8:1 and 12:1).  It is NOT enough to agree with statements of truth unless your agreement translates into changed beliefs and changed behavior that line up with God's will.  How much of what you claim to believe do you actually put into practice in your life and faith? God says to present yourself once and for all to Him.

Paul discusses one of these enigmatic topics in Romans 9 - 11.  Paul explains that God is not finished with the nation of Israel even though many of them in the past and even now have rejected Jesus as the Messiah.  Paul cites five reasons that one day God is not finished with the nation and that one day He will save many Jews.

Why does a person who was raised in the church, taught Bible truths from childhood, surrounded by loving family SOMETIMES choose to reject salvation while another person raised with NO Christian witness yearns to know the Truth and comes to faith in Christ? Paul struggled with these issues as he explained reasons that MANY Jews refused to believe that Jesus is the Savior of the world while affirming that faith in Jesus is the ONLY way to heaven.

Then we read the Bible and grapple with certain events in salvation history that confuse us.  In Romans 9, Paul affirmed that God has not abandoned the nation of Israel by providing salvation to everyone who believes in Christ whether they are Jewish or Gentile.

Bill Hybels said that all religions can be summed up by one word, "DO."  All religions teach that it is what we DO that will get us close to God or into heaven. But ALL religions are false! Christianity is true and may be summed with one word, "DONE."  It is what God has DONE through His Son on the cross for us that makes salvation possible.  Christ Jesus took our punishment on himself on the cross so that whoever believes in Him is forgiven.

God's estimation of each person is not faulty.  God is just.  God's Word states that each person is guilty before God and needs salvation.  No amount of effort on our part will restore the broken relationship that exists between us and God.  Paul states the universal truths that every person goes away from, not toward God.  Salvation is possible ONLY because God seeks after us.

Paul wrote to people who were prouder of their heritage than in doing what God wanted them to do.  They looked down on Gentiles who did not have the Law of God.  Paul said it was more important to do what God said in His Law rather than just quoting the Scriptures to people.  What are you trusting to get you into heaven? Who are you trusting to save you?

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Ryan Lee Graves, age 50, of Kansas City, Missouri, born on September 7, 1974, passed away in the St. Luke's Hospice House at 11:57pm on May 17, 2025. He fought a long and valiant fight but in the end he lost his grueling battle with liver disease and pancreatic cancer.
    Ryan was known to have lived a very adventuresome and colorful life. He loved the outdoors, camping and traveling the countryside, especially to Lake Tahoe, California. 
    Ryan loved music and taught himself to play the guitar and piano skillfully. He spent time writing and performing stand-up comedy by night and was a brilliant web designer and computer programmer by day.
    Ryan's latest adventures/accomplishments included becoming an ordained minister through Christian Global Outreach Ministries, becoming a Board Certified Master Mental Health Coach through the Board of Mental Health Coaching (BMHC) and multiple other life coaching certificates. 
    Ryan's main passion in this area was that of Addiction and Recovery Counseling. He was driven to help others before they reached the place he came to through his own addiction. Ryan created numerous podcasts thru his ministry with Soul Trek Ministries in efforts to reach the lost and lead them to a life with Christ and eternity in Heaven.
    In his final years, Ryan came to know and develop a deep relationship with God through Jesus Christ his Lord and Savior. Reading his bible and sharing the Word of God became one of his deepest desires while on this earth. Ryan worked in the prison ministry and taught adult life groups during his year at Vineyard Church.
    Next to spending time with God, Ryan cherished spending time with his daughter, Zoe and his son, Ethan. These two were the loves of his life and constantly in his thoughts and prayers.
    Ryan became a natural at sharing God's love and the love for each other with those in need. Despite his own struggles to make ends meet, he never stopped trying to help those around him who were also in need. One of his most prized accomplishments was riding his bike to raise money for St. Jude's Cancer Research, even when he could hardly walk himself.
    Ryan was preceded in death by his father, Gary M. Graves, his grandparents, Wayne Henley and Vernie Humbird, and Lee and Dorothy Graves. He is survived by his children, Zoe and Ethan Graves, His mother, Ginger Duhon, sisters, Kelly Young  (Alan), Kristy Swearingen (Chas), Mendi Kellner, Stacee Graves, Jennifer Agee (Darell), Holly Spicer, Ashlee Kellner, Emily Willis (Derrik), Laura Raines (Stephen), and his brother Wesley Graves (Robin). And by multiple nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and beloved friends.
    Our Greatest Promise to you, Ryan Lee Graves, is that you will NEVER be FORGOTTEN! Your legacy and your ministry Will Live on through your precious children and through the lives you have and will continue to touch through the sharing of your story. We Love and Miss You...Now and Forever!!!]]></content:encoded>

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[There is a sense of right and wrong that is wired within every human heart.  Although we may at times disagree on the particulars, all of us believe there are certain things that are right, fair and just and things that are wrong, unfair and unjust.  For those who deny the existence of God and the authenticity of the Bible, they cannot adequately explain where these moral convictions come from.  For believers, we acknowledge that God made us this way. Sin has affected every facet of our lives, culture and even creation.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[The first sin in creation was pride - Lucifer wanted to take the place of God.  Satan tempted Eve to eat of the fruit and "become like God."  The Apostle Paul pointed out in Romans that people continue to think more highly of themselves than we should - rather than worshipping the Creator, we worship the created.  We think we know better than God.  Once we ignore God, our thinking and our actions deteriorate into idolatry, impurity and immorality.

For those believers who have wanted to share Jesus but haven't, fear of rejection or being embarrassed about not having answers are among the top reasons given for NOT sharing faith.  But is it possible that we do not share Jesus because we lack confidence in the God's power to actually change lives? Are we uncomfortable with the Jesus' declaration that He alone is the way to heaven?  Are we ashamed of Good News?

Once we are saved, we discover that everyone should matter to us, because they matter to God.  Yet how do we show that we care?   The Apostle Paul introduced his letter to the Romans by explaining his concern for them even though they had never met one another and what he hoped that God would do in their lives (both theirs and his).

The Bible says that who we are that matters, that lasts into eternity, is connected to our relationship with Jesus.  The Apostle Paul identified himself as a servant and apostle of Jesus.  Paul says that every believer is loved by and set apart by God.  You matter, not for what you do but whose you are.

But bad news isn't just "out there," it can be close to home and personal with problems in our families and in our lives.  Trusting Jesus as one's Savior doesn't solve or remove all of our problems, but salvation gives us the certainty of heaven and God's help here and now.  Do you need a little help?

Every miracle he performed, every lesson he taught, every person he encountered and every day that passed during his earthly ministry brought him to the very place God chose from the beginning.  That even includes the injustices he endured, false accusations he faced and the abuses he suffered.  "God made him who knew NO sin, to be sin for us" (2 Cor. 5:21).

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[The most significant decision each of us will ever make is, "What will we do with Jesus?"  Have you decided?  Have you rejected him? Have you repented of sin and placed your trust in Him to forgive and save you?  If you have chosen to follow Jesus, you will continue to face numerous and repeated decisions where you will either live out your faith boldly or you deny your faith. James, John and Peter failed to watch and to pray as Jesus asked, and each of them ran from Jesus.

James and John wanted places of prominence, Peter was impetuous and headstrong, Andrew introduced people to Jesus, Simon the Zealot was a former enemy of Rome, Thomas struggled to believe, Matthew was a former tax collector and Judas . . . Judas the treasurer sold Jesus out for a few pieces of silver then regretted his treachery.  What kind of disciple (follower) are you?

Although many "tolerated" Jesus' ministry, there was a decisive moment when the Jewish leaders HAD HAD ENOUGH and planned to kill Jesus.  You will face MANY crossroads in your journey of faith when you must choose to believe or choose to disbelieve the promises of God.

Much of the New Testament begins with an introduction or greeting and ends with a benediction or blessing. The writer of Hebrews closes his letter with a powerful benediction that should be part of our day.  Remember who God is and who we are, what God has done and what He wants us to do.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[The Greek word translated "church" in the New Testament may refer to a local group of believers or all believers who belong to the body of Christ known as the universal church. The local church is still the primary avenue for God to reach the world with the Gospel so every Christian should actively support the ministries of their local church.  There is NO perfect church, no perfect pastor and no perfect church member.  As the writer comes near the end of his letter to the Hebrews, he urges believers to obey their spiritual leaders, to pray for them and to greet them.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[The consumer attitude - "What is in it for me?" - has made its way into the church.  Anytime we approach worship or Christian service asking what we will get from it rather than what we can give, we have made worship about us instead of about God.  The writer to the Hebrews urges believers to give the sacrifice of our praise and sacrifice since Jesus SACRIFICED for our salvation.

While change is a natural part of life, it is not easy to adjust to the changes.  Change and uncertainty might explain why we "get stuck in a rut" or why we refuse to listen to new ideas once we have "made up our mind." Are there any truths that are reliable or is everything we believe built on shifting sand? The Bible is God's Word and is dependable and trustworthy.  One of the great descriptions of Jesus is found in our passage today - "Jesus Christ is the same."

Usually a little more than he currently has regardless of what that amount is.  Does getting more, newer, better STUFF, actually bring satisfaction to us?  We are challenged to find contentment in what we have, where we are, with what we are doing rather than always "searching" for MORE.  The writer to the Hebrews says that God gives us contentment because he is the only constant in life and eternity.

The second relationship was marriage between the first man and the first woman - Adam and Eve.  Prior to the last quarter of the 20th Century, marriage was valued and the family was typical setting in which children were raised.  Today both marriage and the family are under assault and viewed by many as unnecessary, irrelevant or dispensable.  The Word of God places great significance on marriage and the family.  The husband and wife should show honor and love to each other. All of us (married or unmarried) should honor marriage and avoid sexual sin.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[God cannot be summed up with one word because He is infinitely greater than we are.  The Bible teaches us the many attributes of God's character - He is holy, righteous, just, forgiving, merciful, gracious, patient, kind, true, trustworthy and faithful - to name only a few.  He is also loving.  God shows us his love through His Son.  Once we believe in Christ Jesus, we are to relate to others in love.  Jesus said, "This is my commandment, that you love one anther as I have loved you" (John 15:12). As the writer of Hebrews draws his letter to a conclusion, he reminds Christians of the imperative of showing love to each other, to strangers, to the needy and oppressed.

Why was King Herod threatened when he learned an infant king had been born? How could the religious leaders who knew and taught the Jewish Scriptures refuse to travel from Jerusalem to Bethlehem to confirm the prophecy of the Messiah being born?   What have you done with Jesus?

George learns quickly that his life affected many people, and that the world would have been a very different place without him.

If you were living, you remember where you were when you heard the  announcement that the US had been attacked at Pearl Harbor, that President John F. Kennedy had been assassinated, that President Nixon had resigned, that a plane had struck the World Trade Center and that the US had invaded Iraq. You remember where you were when you received joyous and tragic news.  God announced to the shepherds "Good news of great joy . . . a Savior has been born!"  That announcement brought joy and the promise of peace to "all people."  Has the message that God sent his Son, Jesus into the world changed your life . . . your eternal destiny?

God went to great lengths to reveal his plans and himself to individuals throughout Scripture culminating in sending his ONLY son, Jesus into the world to save those who believe in him.  God met Mary in Nazareth and disclosed his magnificent plan to send a redeemer. And God continues to pursue people all around the world.  The theme of this year's Lottie Moon Christmas Offering is The Great Pursuit.

Is it that we don't fully believe that God is working for our good - so we lack faith?  Have we mistakenly concluded that God "owes" us more, better or different than we are experiencing?  Have we forgotten how desperate our lives are without Jesus?  May God move in us that we might praise and thank Him often!

A dispute arose in the early church that some of the Greek widows were not receiving aid in proposition to Jewish widows so the apostles selected men to serve the church (Acts 6).  First Baptist Church has set aside a man to the office of deacon who will join the other deacons in working alongside the pastor to meet the needs of the church.

Regardless of the way you voted for candidates or issues, it is unlikely that you are pleased with EVERY decision. Elected officials come and go.  No one leads indefinitely . . . no one except the Lord.  The writer to the Hebrews addresses believers in EVERY place whether their government is a totalitarian regime or a democracy. He assures us that God's reign will last forever and that each Christian belongs to an unshakable kingdom.

That can happen to us in our family, in our work and in our walk with God.  God wants us to join Him in a greater purpose than advancing ourselves, He wants us to advance His kingdom.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[What was the first Bible verse that you memorized?  Was it John 3:16? God declares his love for the world by sending His son to save all who believe.  This is the ultimate proof of God's love . . . the sacrifice of Jesus for our redemption (Romans 5:8).  But there are other proofs that God loves His children.  The writer to the Hebrews quotes Proverbs 3:11-12 in Hebrews 12:5-6 that states that "the Lord disciplines the one he loves."  Not only does the cross demonstrate that God loves you but every time He disciplines you, He announces that He loves you too much to let you do your own thing.

Does Jesus mean more to you today than when you first believed in Him?  Do you love him more now than ever?  Are you faithfully following the Lord or have you wandered away from Him?  Another saying is, "It is not how strong you start the race but how you finish that matters."  How do you hope to END the race?

With our options depleted, our problems unresolved, we have asked God for help in our trouble. God is able to do for us what we cannot accomplish by ourselves.  The Bible is filled with examples of people who believed God when there was NO way out.  People like Joshua, Rahab, Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David and Samuel.

Was it a financial problem, a health issue, a relationship fracture or some other difficult challenge?  Were there moments that you thought you would not get through or the problem would never be resolved?  The Apostle Paul urged believers "let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up."  Moses is an OT example of someone who endured difficulty.  We learn in Hebrews 11 that it was Moses' faith that allowed him to endure.

God decided his plan to provide salvation through Christ Jesus before He created the world (Ephesians 1:4).  When history ends, the Bible reveals the scene in heaven where "a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,"

(Revelation 7:9). Have you received Jesus Christ into your life?  Will you be among the great multitude?  Are you telling others the Good News of salvation so they can also believe? Do you support missions so that the Gospel is taken to the ends of the earth?

Homesickness is feeling anxious and yearning to return home again.  You long to return to your family, your home, your familiar and comfortable surroundings.  The Bible teaches that earth is not our final destination; in fact, faith in Christ helps us to realize the transitory nature of life and to yearn for a permanent, heavenly home.  Are you homesick for heaven?

Some people argue that you can only believe the things that you can see.  Yet there are many significant realities that you and I hold onto without being able to "see" them or to "prove" them. Abraham is cited as an example of someone who believed God was good, gracious and great even when he didn't have the proof.

We know that God answers every prayer that we pray: Yes, No or Wait (not now).  However, delayed answers to prayers often feel like God is saying "No" rather than "Wait."

Believers base our faith on the promises and the reliability of the Word of God.  The Bible defines faith as "the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1).  Faith in God gives certainty and brings commendation.  Do you have faith that pleases God?

Some deadlines are flexible while others cannot be altered.  Following Christ is a decision that must be made while on earth and once made guarantees life in heaven.  Refusal to trust Jesus results in tragic, eternal consequences.

It looks something like this, "Because I decided ___________, then I am going to do ___________.  The writer to the Hebrews uses a similar pattern to challenge Christians' lifestyles decisions.  Because Christ shed his blood and gave us access to God, let us draw near in faith, hold fast our hope and stir others to love and good deeds.

But repetition has value if what we do becomes second nature to us.  An athlete who practices the fundamentals of swinging a bat, shooting a basket or catching a football, wants to do these things without "thinking" about it.

"Prove it to me" is generally our response to something hard to understand.  God gave tangible proofs of his presence, his goodness and his plan to bring salvation to a world filled with lost people.

How often do your plans change at the last minute due to unforeseen and unavoidable situations?  From eternity, God planned to provide forgiveness through his Son, Jesus.  For centuries, God gave promises and glimpses of the coming Messiah.  During the time of the prophet Jeremiah, when life in Judah was difficult, God declared that he would one day make a NEW COVENANT with Israel and Judah (Jeremiah 31:27-34).  Jesus declared the day before his crucifixion that he was establishing a NEW COVENANT through his blood (Luke 22:20).

The extended warranty ALWAYS has an expiration date which usually occurs the day before you actually need it.  Warranties are beneficial if they are still in effect, cover the necessary repair and the company is reliable and stands behind the guarantee.  Jesus stands behind God's offer of salvation FOREVER.

This is happening between Russia and Ukraine and between Israel and Hamas. Because of our sin, God provided a go between, a mediator who is his Son Jesus.  In Genesis 14, God gave a glimpse of the coming mediator through the story of Abraham and Melchizedek.  You and I have complete confidence in the sufficiency of our mediator, Jesus!

There is daily speculation of a Global war breaking out due to Russia and China escalating their threats against the West and Iran threatening Israel.  The political divide in America runs deep.  The writer to the Hebrews describes God's character as unchanging and reliable.  Since God cannot lie, we can trust him to keep His promises to us.  Faith in God's Son gives stability to our lives the same way an anchor secures a vessel.

Most Americans do not get enough rest on a regular basis.  What about your soul?  Do you get enough rest for your soul? The writer of the book of Hebrews invited Christians to enter into God's rest.

Nostalgia has a way of glamorizing the past, elevating memories as good while downplaying the difficulty of earlier times. As Christians, we may wish we could return to the early days after our salvation, but we can't.  What about those who profess faith in Christ and then want to go back to the days of unbelief?

Only one team can emerge as the winner.  It's a big deal but it is only a game.  There are MANY things in life more important than the outcome of an athletic contest, there are relationships that we should value.  The Apostle Paul addresses parents and children in Ephesians 6 with timeless truths - children are to obey and honor their parents, and parents are to nurture and admonish their children.

That's the reason that most food products have an expiration date or best if used by date on the package.  How is it that we view many of God's promises and commands as expired or out of date?  This attitude is especially noticeable when we discuss relationships and marriage - God's plan is one man and one woman.

God intends for each of us worship Him, one only true God; however, many people choose to worship/idolize people, things, status, false gods. God also made us to need His help to direct our lives.  Once we are saved, God wants us to surrender the control of our lives to the Holy Spirit who indwells us.

The Gospel of Matthew tells the journey of the wise men who decided to believe God and searched for the Messiah-King.

However, if you refuse to believe God, fear will overwhelm you, answers will elude you, apathy will desensitize you and insecurity will consume you.

We have had meticulously planned events fail to meet our expectations.  However, God's plan to provide redemption for sinful people went precisely as He planned it would. The Bible declares in Galatians 4:4 that "At just the right time, God sent forth His Son." Rest in the assurance that God knows what we need and sends the help we need at JUST THE RIGHT TIME!

Saving faith in Jesus Christ guarantees that we will spend eternity in heaven.  Until then, we should live for Christ rather than for ourselves, for his priorities instead of our priorities, for his will and not our will.

Paul prayed that the triune God would work in the lives of every believer.  He prayed for believers to be strengthened by the Holy Spirit, to comprehend the love of Jesus Christ and to be filled up with the fullness of God the Father.

We are able to solve or answer many of them, but others remain a mystery throughout our lives.  Paul said that God answered a mystery kept hidden for centuries when He sent Jesus into the world.  God revealed the mystery and brought hope, grace, peace and forgiveness to anyone who believes in His Son.  Everyone (Jew and Gentile) who trusts Jesus becomes a part of God's family and shares the eternal benefits of knowing Christ.

Paul said that God removed the dividing wall between us and one another through the death of Christ on the cross.  Once removed, we are not to rebuild walls in our relationships.

Yet there is no human solution for the universal condition of lostness caused by sin.  What we could not remedy, God provided the only solution through the substitutionary death of His Son, Jesus. Any person who repents and trusts in Christ is saved by grace through faith.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[How often do you pray for people around you?  What kinds of things do you pray for?  Safety, direction, healing, comfort and peace?  In Luke 11, "one of his disciples said to him, 'Lord, teach us to pray."   Jesus responded by giving the Model Prayer or the Lord's Prayer.  Paul also taught us how to pray by including prayers in many of his letters.   He thanked God for specific things before requesting God to work in people's lives.  Paul's prayer in Ephesians 1 is a great example to follow when praying for your loved ones and friends.

So often promises are viewed as non-binding, temporary arrangements until one or both of you decide to break your word.  God is not like us!! God makes and keeps his promises! One of his precious promises is to keep saved everyone who trusts his Son for salvation by giving the Holy Spirit as the guarantee of that promise.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Modern GPS technology makes it easier to get from point A to point B.  If you take a wrong turn, you will hear, "Rerouting."  Have you ever come to the end of the navigation prompts only to realize that you had NOT arrived where you wanted to be?  It's inconvenient but no big deal because you can still get to way you are going.  That is not the true for our eternal destination.  If you follow the wrong "road" to get into heaven, there will be no time to "reroute."  The Bible teaches that there is only one way to heaven, only one way to be forgiven and only one person able to redeem us - Jesus.

If you were popular or a good athlete, you were chosen right away.  Were you ever picked last?  In Ephesians 1, Paul described the work of God in our salvation.  He spoke of God the Father choosing us for salvation even before He created the world.

Unfortunately, we often worship things, experiences, or people rather than worshipping God.  Since God is glorious, gracious and magnificent, he alone is worthy of our praise.  Paul concludes his letter to the Philippian believers by giving glory to God the Father forever and ever.

As we pursue contentment in our daily lives, we discover that there are many situations we cannot change by hard work or fierce determination.  The world tells us anything is possible if we only believe.  Yet we face needs that are greater than our ability to remedy.  God wants us to trust Him.  He promises to meet every need in our lives through Jesus.  The Bible teaches that we can do all things only through Christ's strength.

What would you ask them? In Philippians 2, Paul named two people that God used in his life and ministry.  We know so little about Timothy and Epaphroditus but they made a difference in God's kingdom.  How is God using you to make a difference?

We cannot accomplish anything of eternal value without the Holy Spirit working in us and working through us.

Once you become a Christian, you still struggle with choosing your wants over God's.  The greatest example and encouragement to obey God is Jesus Christ.

This is the reason that they are often called the "Purpose Generation."  The Bible teaches that EVERY Christian is saved and called by God to make a difference in others' lives and in our culture.  Paul challenges believers to "live a life that is worthy" of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Are you?

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Easter Sunday was a terrific time of worship here at First Baptist.  It is estimated that attendance at Easter worship increased significantly all across the country this year.  How do you top Easter?  I do not mean, how can we do something more meaningful, more spectacular?

Instead of finding a dead body, they were that Jesus had risen.  Jesus appeared to his followers as proof of His resurrection.  Each of us must decide to believe the Scripture's testimony about the resurrection.  Since Jesus came back from the dead and is alive today, we have hope in eternity and help for life's problems.  Are you trusting Jesus?

He has risen; he is not here.  See the place where they laid him" (Mark 16:6).  Jesus conquered death when he rose from the dead and He promises life eternal in heaven to anyone who trusts him.  Do you believe Jesus is God's only Son and your only hope of salvation?  Rev. Charles East, pastor of Second Baptist Church, will be preaching.14

Yet there are events and decisions that set apart other days as anything but ordinary.  Those days - decisions - change the trajectory of our life and impact us in ways that mean we will never the same again.  The day of Jesus' arrest, mock trials and sentencing changed the course of history and made salvation possible.  That Friday in history also changed the lives of the religious leaders, Peter, Judas, Pilate and the people who shouted "Crucify him!"

Jesus knew exactly what, where, how and when he would be falsely accused and crucified - this was all part of God's sovereign plan.  As we study the Scripture  today, we will see over and over, "Jesus knew . . . ."

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[We are in the season of Lent - Holy Week starts in 3 weeks on April 2. The Bible plainly states that Jesus' death on the cross was part of God's eternal plan to provide redemption for repentant sinners.  As we study the Passion Narrative over the next 4 Sundays, we will see how different people responded to Jesus as well as Jesus' unwaveringly journey to Calvary.  What choices have you made about following Jesus?

People are asking if the revival is real, whether it will last and whether the changes in people's lives will last? The skepticism about the authenticity of the revival is expressed by believers and unbelievers.  How will we know the answers?  Wait and see what God does.  Jesus warned anyone who opposed the work of God and He predicted opposition to his saving plan of salvation.

Did you even make it a month before returning to old habits?  Jesus spoke directly and firmly to religious people who pretended to follow God's commands but inwardly were filled with evil thoughts and who committed hurtful actions while acting "righteous."

There are many explanations for the secularization of our culture and the steady move away from religious expression.  One reason given for the diminishing influence of Christianity is the argument that Christians do not according to what our faith teaches - we say one thing and do another.  Jesus had strong words for people whose pretending impacted others.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Jesus warned that the religious leaders of his day to stop misleading people by pretending to be people of faith when they only desired to promote themselves and gain the applause of others.  Jesus taught that God sees past externals to every person's heart.  Salvation is not a reward to be attained by human effort but a gift to be received through repentance from sins and faith in God's Son, Jesus.  The only people we fool by masquerading is ourselves.  Stop pretending, start believing!

Jesus came from heaven and went back to heaven.  If anyone can be trusted to tell us about heaven, it is Jesus.  During his ministry, Jesus was asked about life in heaven.  Let's study what he says.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[There were several occasions during Jesus' ministry when religious leaders tried to trick Jesus into saying something that would either upset the people or the governing authorities.  Jesus always alluded their traps by teaching God's truth.  When Jesus was asked whether it was lawful to pay taxes or not, Jesus answered, "Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and give to God what belongs to God."  We will study Jesus' teaching and what it means for us today.

The Scripture clearly teaches the worth of every person and that God intricately creates every life in the womb.  Consider the complexity of a single life as evidence of a creative, powerful and loving God and marvel that He  invites every one of us into a saving relationship with Him through faith in His Son.

All of us are a lot like Jonah.  There are many things we can learn about ourselves as we study the Bible.  Jonah discovered that no matter how far he ran in the opposite direction, God was waiting for him.  In today's message, we will study David's words in Psalm 139 and the assurance that God is always with us.

What is going on?"  Well, the answer to those questions is the same - God!  In one of the most beloved and often quoted psalms, David answered these questions with great affirmations of faith - God knows everything, he is everywhere, he makes everyone and he deals with everybody.

The Good News of Christmas is that we need a Savior and God provided by sending His Son, Jesus.

As an angel divulged the miraculous details of the long-awaited Messiah, both Mary and Joseph had to set aside fears, doubts, confusion and trust God to do what was best for them.  You and I live in an imperfect world.  If we are going to follow Jesus, we must also put aside our fears, doubts and confusion and trust God.

A quick review of the day's headlines reveals that sin continues to wreak havoc in societies and in individual lives.  It seems that there is no way out or no possibility of change until we look to Jesus and his purpose for coming into our world. Jesus came to give us hope.  Jesus accomplished this by sharing in humanity, suffering in death, sacrificing his life and sanctifying us through his blood.

The voices of a million angels could not express my gratitude, all that I am and ever hope to be, I owe it all to Thee." Do you agree with this affirmation? I wholeheartedly do!!

Why is it so hard to understand the necessity of pre-planning when it comes to eternity.  The Gospel teaches that admittance into heaven requires that payment be made for sins.  Since you and I cannot afford the price for redemption, God sent His Son into the world.  Christ Jesus lived a sinless life, died and paid for our redemption and offers forgiveness free of charge to anyone who repents and trusts him.  Do you have a reservation for heaven?

Jesus told a story about two sons who were told to go work in the father's vineyard.  One agreed to go but didn't; the other refused to go but changed his mind and worked.  Jesus challenges us to do God's will the first time we are told rather than making excuses or hesitating.  Partial obedience is still disobedience.

Have you recently said, "That's just not right . . . someone ought to do something about it"?  Jesus told a story about God's incredible, unbelievable and amazing grace; however, his story clashes with our understanding of fairness and justice.

Many of our questions will remain unanswered until heaven; however, God has provided sufficient information in the Bible to answers life's and eternity's most pressing questions.  Jesus engaged with many people who were seeking answers, but not everyone accepted the answers Jesus provided.  Do you?

Our view of sin affects that way we see ourselves, others and even God.  Jesus told a story about a "religious" man and a "sinner" who both went to the Temple to pray, but only one of them returned home "justified."

There are also deep spiritual divisions among those who live in America.  As followers of Jesus, we are often ridiculed and maligned for our biblical convictions.  The animosity towards Christians and our faith seems to grow more intense with each passing day.  Jesus predicted that his followers would suffer persecution.  What should our response be when we are confronted by hostility?  Jesus told us to be prepared, to be faithful and to love!

Jesus said that love and obedience cannot be separated.

Darkness was dispelled! Everywhere Jesus went, God's truth was boldly proclaimed, 
people were healed, hypocrisy was exposed, and sinners found forgiveness." What 
about now? What about you? Jesus calls his followers salt and light. Will you 
BE salt and light wherever we go? It is far less about DOING the right things and more about 
BEING the right person (salt and light).

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[In a recent Gallup poll, 44% of people in the U.S. reported saying that religion is "very important," compared to 60% of respondents who said the same in 2002 while 3 out of 10 Americans identified with no religion.  Christians cannot convince lost people through arguments that Jesus is God's Son or that salvation is available only through Jesus.  Instead, we can only effectively influence unsaved individuals and change the world around us by obeying Jesus' word to BE salt and light wherever we go.  It is far less about DOING the right things and more about BEING the right person (salt and light).

commitment to Jesus to see what areas of our life and faith need to be brought into line with God's 
kingdom principles? We can start by studying Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5 where he gave us four 
attitudes that line up with God's kingdom and four actions that sprout from a kingdom heart.

Unfortunately, there is little difference between the beliefs and the lifestyle of the person who professes to follow Jesus and the person who denies the existence of God.  How can this be?

In Luke 15, Jesus told three parables about our lostness and God's relentless pursuit of us.  Do you need reminded how just how valuable your are to God?

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Few stories are more recognizable than Jesus' parable of the Good Samaritan.  Each of us can see ourselves as treating people at times like the thieves, the priest and the Levite, the Samaritan and the lawyer.  What we often miss is Jesus' point of the story.  Genuine love for God and forgiveness of sins (salvation) is demonstrated by the way we show love to and treat others.  Our actions do not earn us salvation, our actions simply reveal the authenticity of what we believe.

Few of us decided to follow Jesus after one encounter with God's truth.  Jesus met a blind man and healed him.  The healed man's initial response was to think of Jesus as a man, but throughout his encounters with the religious leaders and then Jesus, he came to "see" and believe in Jesus as God's Son.

Thomas was not with the other ten disciples on resurrection Sunday when Jesus appeared to them.  Thomas, like a good Missourian, said that he wouldn't believe the news that Jesus had risen unless he saw for himself and touched the nail prints.

They also were changed by his love and grace.  However, it wasn't until his death, that each follower experienced the lasting difference of salvation made possible by his death and resurrection.  Mary Madalene was the first person to see Jesus alive and this encounter with Jesus gave her joy, courage and a new reason to live.

Jesus always called the spectators to move beyond superficial interest and to make a decisive commitment to follow him.  Knowing the identity of Jesus is essential to one's salvation.  There are many opinions about Jesus' true identity but until one accepts and believes that Jesus is the only Son of God, there can be no salvation.

Philip used other Old Testament passages to declare the truth of the Messiah, Jesus.  Much like Philip, Bob Mendelsohn who serves with the Jews for Jesus in Australia will preach on "Jesus in the Old Testament."

With no answer in sight, Jesus taught his followers a valuable lesson in trust.  Jesus' feeding of the 5000 is the only miracle recorded in all four Gospels.  Jesus multiplied a boy's lunch of fish and bread and fed 15-20,000 people (5000 men plus women and children).  Still there were twelve baskets of bread left over.

What if some of those "storms" are actually God's way of helping and growing our faith?  Jesus has all authority and that includes authority over every part of our life. The Gospels relate teachings and miracles that prove Jesus authority over demons, disease, death and nature. Will you let Jesus direct you even when you're in the middle of a storm?

Yet, where should we go for matters of faith, questions of morality, or eternal issues? We should seek direction from God through His Word (the Bible), through faith in His Son, Jesus, being guided by God's Spirit, the Holy Spirit.  The Gospels gives evidence that Jesus is able to meet our needs because he is more than a man.  Jesus is God's eternal Son and has the power to forgive sins.

From the opening chapter of the OT where God creates life, the Bible moves steadily, consistently toward God's purpose of bringing salvation to anyone who repents of sin and believes in His Son, Jesus.  Every teaching and every miracle gave evidence that Jesus was more than a mere man, he was (is and will always be) the eternal Son of God.  What Jesus did during His earthly ministry, He continues to do today.  Jesus changes lives!]]></content:encoded>

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Jesus came to bring salvation and to exercise authority over our lives.  The New Testament uses the phrase, "the kingdom of God (or of heaven) has come"!  This means that as Christians, we live in two worlds.  We are citizens of an earthly nation and citizens of heaven.

God makes no distinction between your spiritual life and the rest of your life.  In other words, all of your business is God's business.

Although we can avoid "some" waiting, we will still wait . . . wait . . . wait.

Did it cost very much money?  Gifts are a huge part of our Christmas celebration - finding, buying, wrapping, giving and receiving.  But not every gift is appreciated and not everyone wants the gift you picked out for them. What is the greatest gift ever?  Paul calls Jesus "the indescribable gift" in 2 Corinthians 9:15.  Have you received God's gift of Jesus? Have you received Jesus' gift of forgiveness and salvation?

(of course, the Word of God affirms the truthfulness of the Christ's birth).  What if Jesus came at the wrong time, to the wrong place, to the wrong people, was the wrong savior and offered no peace? If Christ did not come, we are WITHOUT HOPE in this LIFE and in the LIFE TO COME.  Hallelujah!  God did send His only Son into the world that we might be saved through faith in his death, burial and resurrection!!

The Christmas story is found in Matthew 1 &amp; 2 and Luke 1 &amp; 2, yet there are verses in the OT that predict the coming Messiah and numerous passages in the NT that use Jesus' coming as proof of God's love for us.  What difference does Jesus make in my life, in your life today? Let's study the Bible for truths behind God sending His Son.

Unlike our plans that require frequent adjustments or changes, God's plans do not run into roadblocks.  The Christmas story assures us that God's intention to provide salvation to lost humanity through His Son gives hope to any who will believe in Christ Jesus.

Have you ever given a gift that was unappreciated or even refused?  Giving gifts shouldn't be about us yet we can learn a lot about ourselves and our motives when we give.  God is the Ultimate giver of gifts.  Psalm 65 is a corporate hymn of thanksgiving for God's plenteous gifts to us - forgiveness, care and food.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[We live in a pluralistic culture that abhors anything that is considered absolute; however, the Bible is filled with absolute truths that cannot be negotiated or explained away.  The gospel is exclusive - salvation is found in no other name than in Jesus (Acts 4:12).  There are not many gods to choose from but one true God.  Once you come to understand and believe in the uniqueness and authenticity of God and His Word, it changes your entire perspective and realigns all of your priorities.  The Psalmist praises God and calls on God's people and all the nations to also praise Him.

Isaiah 53: 6, "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned--every one--to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all."  Jesus is our sacrificial lamb but he is also described as our Good Shepherd (John 10).  Although you may never have realized it, you NEED a shepherd for your soul.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[The entire book of Psalms begins with a straightforward declaration that there are two groups of people in the world - the righteous and the wicked.  What determines this designation is whether a person trusts or does not trust the Lord.   One's commitment to the Lord is seen in their desires and delights.

Afterall, it's "your money" not the investor's.  Isn't this the way we should view our responsibility to handling the resources that God has placed under our care and management for the brief time on earth?

Other times you are asked to give money to meet a need or aid people whom you will likely never meet.  What should motivate a Christian to give to kingdom causes through their local church?  The Apostle Paul taught that believers should participate in grace giving out of love, prompted by Christ's example of sacrifice with a willingness to make a difference in others' lives.

But who is it that REALLY provides for us?  The Apostle Paul named God as our provider as he thanked the Philippian Christians for their financial gifts to support ministry.

It might surprise you to learn that God has a plan for the ways that EVERY one of us--as Christians--earns, spends and saves money as well as how we invest and use our time and abilities.  The Apostle Paul wrote to encourage believers in Macedonia to continue their exemplary and generous giving to meet needs.  As we continue our building project here at FBC, we should evaluate our giving in light of the Macedonians' example.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[There was a time when worship was seen as a privilege.  Individuals spent time preparing themselves in advance of worship.  Times of worship were a priority in one's life and family and other activities were fit around worship rather than worship fitting around all other activities. King David wrote a Worship Psalm in which he described the heart and attitude of a true worshipper of God.  Let's study God's Word together to see if we are "true worshippers."

Is it wrong to question what God is doing in our lives or the timing of His actions?  Have your emotions taken over your faith so you doubt the most basic promises of God?  The Psalmist went through a period of discouragement where he was assaulted by unbelief but he maintained his confidence that God would see him through.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Charles Hummel wrote a short article called the "Tyranny of the Urgent" where he said that "we live in constant tension between the urgent and the important."  What is urgent is not always important.  The Bible gives clarity to our search for what's important by urging us to look to the eternal God to find wisdom, satisfaction and joy in this temporary life and to prepare for life in eternity.  We will study these timeless truths in Psalm 90 - the only psalm written by Moses.

It will take years to rebuild and repair structures damaged in the storm.  The writer to the Hebrews urged God's people to build their lives upon the sure foundation of faith in God's Son instead of temporary ideas that will not last.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[A prevalent, persistent and pessimistic attitude today muses that "Nothing is certain anymore and nothing ever lasts."  The Word of God gives a different perspective about life on earth and life in eternity.  It is possible to experience the love of God personally so that our entire life is affected and directed by the God who created us.

Has there been a time in modern history where there is such a polarization of beliefs and attitudes as there is now in religion and politics?  Within Christianity there are people who champion love over all else and those who advocate truth above everything. This division DOES not exist in Scripture.  Christians are to maintain BOTH - we must always show love and we must always believe and practice the truth.

The Bible establishes the need for witnesses to corroborate a person's testimony which is also a common notion in our judicial system.  The Apostle John uses this precedent of testimony to illustrate that God Himself testifies that Jesus is His Son.  In other words, we can trust Jesus to care for us in this life and provide for us in eternity.

John explains that there are two groups of people in the world - those who are born of God and those who are not.  John characterizes those born of God with four verbs: believes, loves, obeys and overcomes.  It would benefit each of us to examine our faith through the filters that John uses in chapter 5.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[News stories today seem to be filled with a lot of speculation rather than reporting facts and details.   As believers in Jesus, we should base our confidence on the promises that God has made in the Bible.  Rather than wondering what happens to people who have never heard the gospel, we should seek to make Jesus known to those we meet.  The only assurance of forgiveness the Bible offers is for those who confess faith in God's Son.  This confession brings confidence when we think about judgement because Christ has fully paid for and removed a believer's sin completely, FOREVER.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[One of the most frequent descriptions of God's character comes from 1 John 4:8 where we are told that "God is love."  The attribute of love must be balanced with God's other traits like His holiness, faithfulness, righteousness, justice and mercy.  John clearly teaches that love is also an identifying mark that a person genuinely belongs to God through faith in Jesus.

The Apostle John challenged first century believers to carefully test (examine) what they were being taught and to evaluate everything through their faith in Jesus, God's Son.

The Apostle John challenges believers who say they love others but who show anger, hatred or indifference to people.  John says that genuine love sacrifices and serves those in need as well as obeys God's commands.

The Apostle John faced a similar situation in the first century as people who claimed to believe in Jesus demonstrated no noticeable changes in their behavior and continued in their immoral lifestyle.

God's love still gives hope to those who believe in Christ Jesus.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[It's normal to explain away things that we do not understand or do not want to believe.  The statement "Jesus died for our sins, was buried and rose to life again" is more than an article of faith, it is an historical fact.  Yet this fact is far different than other pieces of history because it represents a spiritual reality that can change a person's eternal destiny depending on whether a person believes this truth and commits to follow after Jesus.  Easter 2021 culminates more than a year since the lock-down in the US, illnesses, deaths and significant changes. More than ever, may we realize the hope the Risen Jesus Christ gives us to live this life and the promise of life to come in heaven.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Christians around the world are celebrating Palm Sunday when Jesus rode into Jerusalem and was welcomed by crowds shouting, "Hosanna"!! Yet most of the people who shouted praise on Sunday failed to grasp Jesus' true identity as God's Son or the real reason that he came into the world (i.e., to die for mankind's sin and to provide the means of redemption for all who would repent and believe in Him).  People are still confused about Jesus.  The Apostle John urges Christians to know the truth about Jesus and to avoid those who distort the truth, who deny Jesus or who seek to deceive Christians.

We faced an enemy that we could not see and found nearly impossible to guard against.  Long before 2020's pandemic, we have faced an invisible, spiritual battle against the forces of darkness.  Believers should guard ourselves against allurements and distractions that will diminish our love for God or dampen our desire to do God's will.  The Apostle John warned us to "stop loving the world."

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[When we say that something is "either black or white," we mean that there is a distinction between two things or  choices.  In a morally relativistic culture, there is no clear mark between right and wrong or between good and evil.  However, the Bible still gives us moral absolutes we can follow.  The Apostle John wrote that a genuine follower of Jesus Christ loves others.  Regardless of what a person says, John points out that "showing" love indicates whether a person genuinely knows God or not.  John also teaches that showing hatred reveals that the individual is still walking in darkness, i.e., the one who hates others is not a Christian.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Our culture is in a moral free fall.  We have chosen to ignore or reject God's Word and have redefined morality by individual standards and preferences rather than by timeless, eternal principles. When we deny sin, we are powerless to change.  John wrote to remind believers that Jesus dealt with our sinful past by becoming our atoning sacrifice.  Jesus deals with sin in the present by becoming our advocate (defense attorney).  Jesus helps us overcome sin by becoming our guide.

God made us for relationships - a reconciled relationship with Him through faith in the shed blood of Jesus and relationship with one another in the body of Christ.  John urged us to have fellowship with God and each other while avoiding barriers that hinder our fellowship.

Yet the moment we receive God's forgiveness, we become children of God.  We also become workers, vessels and servants of God.  There is no greater joy than knowing Jesus as Savior and no greater fulfillment than serving Him as our Lord.  Paul used seven different words to convey the essential purpose of EVERY believer after salvation - serving the Lord Jesus!

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Christianity has been infected by a consumer mentality that frequently asks, "What does the church have to offer me?" or "What am I going to get in return for my service?"  The New Testament records the sacrifices of believers who suffered because of their faith in Jesus Christ.  One of Paul's final letters was to Timothy in which he used seven metaphors to describe the service which EVERY believers owes the Lord Jesus: steward, soldier, athlete, farmer, worker, vessel and servant. 

Note:   This video was uploaded to YouTube after service was over.  The Livestream video had internet issues

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Trivial Pursuit is a board game that came out while I was in college (1981).  The game tests a person's knowledge with "general and popular culture questions."  The game's title is an accurate description of how so many people live their lives - in pursuit of the trivial rather than in pursuit of the triune God.  God created every person with the capacity and need to worship.  If we choose not to worship God, we will worship something or someone. In today's message, we will study Psalm 34 as David describes the value of worship that he discovered during a difficult time in his life.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[We thank God for the peaceful transfer of power this past Wednesday when President Biden was inaugurated.  Yet our nation remains deeply divided.  Unless we intentionally refocus our attention and efforts on God's purposes for us, we risk facing this division within the body of Christ locally and across this nation.  God's purposes for his people remain the same: worshipping, witnessing, working, discipling and fellowshipping.

Why is our nation facing so much anger, distrust and hate from within our borders as well as from enemies without?  Where do we look for answers during this difficult time of pandemic, racial and political unrest and division?  The psalmist counsels trust in God Almighty and urges us to seek refuge in God who is always present with us.

The miracles that happened that first Christmas are still a source of hope and joy for believers today.  God sent His Son in to the world so that whoever believes in Him will not perish but will live forever in heaven.  This message is "good news of great joy for all people" (Luke 2:10).]]></content:encoded>

Luke tells the true story of Jesus healing ten lepers but only ONE healed man returned to give thanks.]]></content:encoded>

Most often the first words that come to mind, even if the words are true, are not always helpful in the moment.  Instead of focusing on what you might say to another person, what would you say to God in the middle of your own uncertainties?  The Apostle Paul concluded this letter with a benediction that we can pray in many different situations: Lord, give me Your peace, remind me of Your presence and give me Your grace.]]></content:encoded>

Maybe it was true or maybe they just happened to be around to get the brunt of your frustration.  Either way, all of us have reached the point at some time that we felt emotionally or spiritually drained by the stress of dealing with difficult people.

The Bible contains clear direction for living daily and truths for putting our faith into practice. Paul's words to these first Century believers stressed the importance of knowing and holding onto God's Truth. 

Let's apply God's Word
-       Do you believe what God says in His Word about you (loved, chosen, set apart and called)?
-       Are you standing firm on what God says is right or giving in to what our culture says is acceptable?
-       What kind of gap is there between what you say you believe and what you actually practice?]]></content:encoded>

The Bible contains clear direction for living daily and truths for putting our faith into practice. Paul's words to these first Century believers stressed the importance of knowing and holding onto God's Truth. 

 Let's apply God's Word
-       Do you believe what God says in His Word about you (loved, chosen, set apart and called)?
-       Are you standing firm on what God says is right or giving in to what our culture says is acceptable?
-       What kind of gap is there between what you say you believe and what you actually practice?]]></content:encoded>

Application:

Paul assured believers that God would not ignore their present suffering and that God would give them eternal reward and relief in heaven.  He also clarified the impending judgment that awaits everyone who does not know God and who rejects the Gospel.  The lost will face God's righteous judgment where He will repay with vengeance and destruction.

 Application:
- What about heaven do you look forward to the most?
- Do you believe that God's future judgment on the lost will be just and fair?

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Worship 083020 "How Responsive Are You?" 1 Thessalonians 5:19-22

Today we take in more information than ever before but how much of what we see and hear can we really trust as reliable, accurate and helpful information? "Just Google it" or "Ask Siri" or "Hey Alexa" have become second-nature to many of us.  But what do we do with the information we receive? Are we constantly evaluating what we hear by what God tells us in the Bible is true?  The Apostle Paul told believers that they should test everything they believed and avoid wrong by following the Holy Spirit's prompting and the God's Word. 

 

Discussion questions

1) When have you been slow to respond to the Holy Spirit's prompting?

2) What is something that God says is right or wrong that you have difficulty accepting?

3) How do you filter information to see whether it's true or not?]]></content:encoded>

We know we can call for help in an emergency but until then we are doing just fine.  How would our prayers change if we began to see prayer as a responsibility to help others and not simply a privilege for me to get things I want from God? Paul prayed for the Thessalonians believers to grow in their faith, to increase in their love and to be used by God until Jesus returned.  We should pray for others as Paul prayed for his friends!]]></content:encoded>

The Apostle Paul taught the transforming power of God's Word to change hearts and lives.  We should let God's Word work in us as we work with others to spread God's message of forgiveness of sin, love and hope until Jesus returns.  It has been a difficult week for our nation.  There have been daily protests and nightly violence in many U.S. cities following the death of George Floyd.  All of us condemn the actions of the police officers that caused Floyd's death and we want the mistreatment, injustice and racial prejudice in our nation to end.]]></content:encoded>

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Solomon urges us to seek God at the end of life.  It is normal for our physical body to weaken as we age, but that does not have to happen to us spiritually.  God wants us to grow spiritually and to grow gracefully at the same time that our physical strength is diminishing.  We will study why the Bible teaches that physical weakness is a natural part of earthly life and a necessary preparation for eternal life.

Older people often wish they had their younger years back or that they had made different decisions earlier in life.  In Ecclesiastes 11, Solomon urges each of us to rejoice in today, to remove anxieties and fears from our lives and to remember God in our daily decisions.
