As you will have already noticed by the time you see this blog entry, the site has undergone a major face lift. While everything appears different now, I believe all of the previous functionality remains. The changes were dictated by the hosting service Libsyn. They are making some major changes to their infrastructure which required some changes to be made to the web environment where the CCoGmedia web pages are hosted. The new pages should be a little more mobile device friendly also.
All previous content, including the archives from 2000 to 2010 have been moved to the new site and should be available.
There will be a few more changes as I get used to the new environment but hopefully it will not disrupt access to the sermons.
One more note of interest here, sermons may be played directly from the player on the web page or you can download them to your computer to play later. To download, click on thebutton beside the sermon.

Both times have something to do with faith or the lack of faith.- In Matthews 5:8-10 Jesus was amazed that a man had more than enough faith to be heal. Jesus said that he had not seen a faith like this in all of Israel.- Jesus was also amazed by unbelief. His family and friends didn’t believe that Jesus could heal.- Matthews 14:25-31- The disciples were in a boat on the fiver. They saw a figure walking on the water. They were afraid, when Jesus told them it was He; Peter wanted to walk on the water to Jesus. Peter took his eyes off of Jesus, became afraid and had no confidence.- Jesus reached out to pick Peter up as he was sinking. Jesus says ”Oh you have so little faith” Faith is not a feeling but confidence in something that is bigger than yourself.- Faith is something God has already done.- Success in the Christian life is when we grow in faith and not in our ability but what God has done in his ability and what He is able to do.- It’s not about you but is all about Him.

Jesus alone can satisfy- You don’t come to Christ so He will feed you, provide for or heal, but so He can save you, fill you up... He owns you and must be approached as savior.- When your mind and heart are in heaven, loss does not frighten you- The aroma of the sacrifice, of obedience, the priest spattered in blood... the priest’s blessing meant something because he waited and obeyed- When all we want is Jesus, we will begin to see real, identifiable blessings- There is a kingdom coming; we should be after His kingdom, not things for ourselves

He waits till your life is all to pieces and you don’t know what you believe anymore- We’ve made Christianity into a western religion to accommodate our feelings and beliefs.

Topic: Holy Living
Notes:- There are times when the un-condemned will feel condemned. When you sin, your heart condemns you, but He has forgiven you.- Story: Sandra cooking, what is missing... usually salt. The one thing lacking in my spirit is in my speech... glorifying God yet criticizing people- We are supposed to be Jesus talking, relating to each other- Salt preserves, heals, seasons; is your speech full of mercy, favor?- You learn more about a person by what he says about others than what others say about him- By your words you will be justified or condemned- Whining, griping, complaining will not change anything, but saps spiritual energy...- Words are like nitroglycerin; they can blow up a bridge or heal a man’s heart- Ignorance yearns to speak up, put down, ridicule, accuse... we never have all the facts- Satan accuses; Christ intercedes. Who do you want to be like? Refuse to accuse- Some speak from experience; some, from experience, don’t speak

I will not conquer it- One who is poor in spirit does not try to prove himself; we are nothing. Quit pretending and trying to impress. Recognize your flaws; you’re not fooling anyone.- Story of ice cream... same as any addiction, it controls you.- The poor in spirit are the least judgmental, compassionate.- Rest in your salvation; throw yourself at the mercy of the court- You get to heaven by trusting in the Lord with all your heart- Thief on cross, woman caught in adultery... no repentance but Jesus forgave- Woman who cried at Jesus feet and dried his feet with her hair... an approach to Jesus without pretense that cries “help me,” he never rejects- When you trust, you do not fear; there is no fear in love

Scripture: John 20:19-23; 13:7
Topic: The Church
Notes:- The church is the people... anyone who believes in Jesus- Jesus came to the Jews and was rejected; the Holy Spirit came to continue the work- The people Jesus chose as the foundation of the church were doubting people, not brilliant or dependable; the apostles were the foundation and Jesus the cornerstone- Righteousness is a gift from God that cannot be earned- You are saved by accepting the gift, not temporarily but eternally- Being filled with the spirit is not shouting, running and screaming... but peace... not animation... everyone reacts differently. He enables you to get up and keep going.- When others are trying to figure out where the feeling is, you can know where your faith is.- Learn to forgive or there will be no power in your prayer- When Jesus wasn’t with them, the disciples didn’t know what to do... they got discouraged as we do today... haven’t been to a good service in a while...- You don’t have to go anywhere in particular to find revival or power- We get discouraged by personal failure. The closer to God you move, the more aware of your sin you become- Jesus didn’t call them to fight for Him but to be faithful to Him- They forgot His teaching and the joy... joy is coming.

After we’ve failed and denied Him, He comes after us- The disciples didn’t trust themselves to be loyal- We worry about persevering. The uncertainty is part of the persevering- Not my strength but His. Persevere when you doubt yourself- Faith not in you but in Jesus

Topic: Prayer
Notes:- It doesn’t do any good to pray until we humble ourselves- We are totally dependent on God- First step is to humble myself, then to seek His face- Some ministers are anointed but not approved- God is not interested in how much we get done for Him but that we walk in integrity, holiness, humility... so He can work through us- We must turn from our sins and fall before the Lord; He will forgive and heal our land- Prayer of Justice Paul Newby

Notes:- Who is man? All of our thoughts about God are human, of a little explainable God.- God is on the throne, in control and has a plan. He is sovereign.- I am not the center; God does everything for Himself, for His glory- God does not consult man and is not moved by our demands or our weaknesses, but by our faith in His sovereignty- No one works independently of the will of God- I am in charge of nothing; we are free only within the boundaries God has placed us.- There is nothing God cannot do.- Politics should not divide believers; both parties are corrupt- God’s plan is that every knee will bow- No plan will succeed unless the Lord wills it. Say “if the Lord wills...”- You wouldn’t have chosen the life your living; God chose for you

Notes:- After prayer of dedication at Solomon’s temple fire consumed the offering and sacrifices and the glory of the Lord filled the temple.- When the glory fell, the priests could not enter... represent religion, a manmade device that becomes a substitute for a real relationship with a living God- When you pray the glory will fill you and religion cannot get in- Religion is as dangerous as sin. Prayer reignites a passion for God- When we pray, we don’t act out of obligation but generosity- Jesus became the last blood sacrifice, but we do offer sacrifices.- David, a man of God, came to repentance, was broken hearted, felt remorse- Sacrifice of a broken and contrite heart: not enough brokenness over sin today, too much tolerance- Sacrifice of my body: His house, the temple of the Holy Spirit. I cannot go on sinning, doing whatever my body wants- Sacrifice of Praise: we need to speak it. We go on trying to remedy someone else’s problem. Lay it on the altar and thank God. Don’t let it steal your joy- Sacrifice of doing good and sharing: God delights in this and is well pleased.

Topic: Sovereignty of God
Notes:- How long will you be mad at yourself or believe you’re being punished- The Lord takes bad decision and turns them around for good- We’re grieving over things we do not know, assuming things could have been different; we live under a dark cloud of “what if”- We do not understand salvation if we think we can eternally effect our quality of life- God knows every misdirected step, immature decision... instead of stopping these from happening He brings it all together so we see that God ordered our steps- Because Joseph was a good man, God let him suffer so when the time came God could use him to deliver many people- You didn’t do this; God did this- God is involved, bringing His will to pass through us in ways we cannot understand- Will you contest God, be angry with Him or do what the Bible says and give thanks- He orders our steps and delights in His way; we should also delight- You’ll never fall and be cast away or not get up- God loves justice, will not forsake His children- If you have believed, you are preserved- All things (even sins) work together for good for the called; the good is in the eternal, not in a moment in the here and now... a glorified state with Jesus Christ- When God calls you, you cannot be uncalled- What I do does not change who I am in Christ; He is working on me

Notes:
- It is never God’s intent that you feel afraid or guilty- Live with boldness, courage, optimism, joy- Israel moving into the promised land was God telling us to move into an abundant life- Nothing is supposed to intimidate you as a believer; fear is torment- If you don’t believe God will never leave you, everything you do will be in fear- You will never be able to do enough if it’s up to you- When you ask, God delivers; you can count on His faithfulness- We’re not saved by works of any degree at any time but by grace, the good news of the favor of God upon the undeserving- This is about being a child of God, not a member of an organization- Because we love the brethren, we know we are saved- God is greater than your heart. Believe in Jesus and love one another- Don’t let your heart, the church, an organization condemn you|- People are bitter with the church, don’t want formality... as long as the gospel is preached, who cares?- Church ought to be a place where you’re free, not obligated- You don’t owe me anything; you only thing you owe the brethren is to love them- This is about you and your bible and your God

Judge not: rarely do we have all the facts- If you are strict with people, God will be strict with you; if you’re willing to give somebody a second chance, you’ll get one also- Don’t stand still and try to straighten people out.

Notes:- Pharisees asked Jesus for a sign-He declined- Progressive healing of the blind, perhaps to build his faith or to show that the method and means does not matter to Him...- We are the middle of our interaction with Jesus- God always finishes what He starts- Am I ever going to get to the place that I see clearly- God can be depended on (story of sharing M&Ms with son), He will not ask for anything from you that He cannot replenish- Life is found IN Him; it doesn’t just come from Him- He is more than the sum of the parts, more than the gifts He gives- Our joy, not His, is affected by our dependence on Him- He is more than a healer or a giver of good things- If anyone opens the door and invites Him in He will enter into relationship; in Him you may have life- Who is He to you? The Way, Truth and Life?

Notes:- Pharisees asked Jesus for a sign-He declined- Progressive healing of the blind, perhaps to build his faith or to show that the method and means does not matter to Him...- We are the middle of our interaction with Jesus- God always finishes what He starts- Am I ever going to get to the place that I see clearly- God can be depended on (story of sharing M&Ms with son), He will not ask for anything from you that He cannot replenish- Life is found IN Him; it doesn’t just come from Him- He is more than the sum of the parts, more than the gifts He gives- Our joy, not His, is affected by our dependence on Him- He is more than a healer or a giver of good things- If anyone opens the door and invites Him in He will enter into relationship; in Him you may have life- Who is He to you? The Way, Truth and Life?

Scripture: Psalm 139:17-18; John 13:7
Topic: Fear
Notes:- Sometimes we are afraid... not necessarily due to unbelief or doubt; we are human and things happen and we get afraid- Fear can paralyze us- We may know that our(earthly) father loved though he didn’t have time for the details... we begin to think God saved us but left us to work everything else out...- There is not one thing God does not know and care about in your life- I am always on my father’s mind; everything is under His feet

Topic: Focus
Notes:- Fads in the church: back masking (to prove Satan is in the music industry), angels (Charles & Francis claimed Gabriel set up headquarters in their home), y2k, cursed items in your home (devil can’t live in my home-sanctified by believers within)- Focus to be on Jesus; am I into something that distracts me, in spiritual ignorance- In Him are hidden all treasures; so simple a child can understand- Do I have to choose between Jesus and fun, interests, hobbies... no. He chose me and I am in Him. We do everything together.- Christ walks with you even through weaknesses and sin- Will not get to place we do not sin, but to the place that when we do we turn back to Him in repentance; it does no good to make resolutions- God is better than you’ve been taught; get your mind off you

Topic: Love
Notes:- The full comprehension of love is only possible by those who know Jesus- Adam in the garden put in the role of leadership/headship- The kindness of God gave everything to them except the fruit from one tree- A man leaving father and mother... is not physical or relational but positional. The welfare of the wife becomes the man’s priority. One man, one woman forever- Eve’s conversation with the serpent... listened to a voice to doubt the goodness of God- Adam blamed Eve (and God); Eve blamed serpent... story of planting Christmas tree without a root ball. We need to take responsibility for our own actions- There are consequences to sin but Jesus gave us hope- The sacrifice of an animal to cover man; Jesus’ sacrifice to cover sin- The life outside of Eden is not the life God intended for us- Eden was not destroyed; eternal life is to be restored- Eve means “giver of life”- There is power in the Spirit. Spirit filled people sing, are thankful, submit and love others more than themselves- Christ loves us, wants our love and for everything we do to be motivated by love

Scripture: John 6:6
Topic: Hope
Notes:- God already knows what He’s going to do; not waiting for you to pray, fast, or quote His word back to Him- He already decided the outcome; is waiting for your reaction- You can cry, fret and fear and it won’t change anything but your health- God already has victory; He will not hand you a defeat

Scripture: Revelation 3:20; Mark 15:38; Hebrews 13:8
Topic: Jesus the Son
Notes:- When we get to a simple understanding of who Jesus is instead of focusing on all He’s done, we can have a better relationship with Him- If anyone opens the door to Him, He will come- He removed the barrier (tore the veil) that separated us; He wants to fellowship- Religion separates us from Jesus; story of student missing chapel, getting demerit- Mormons, Muslims, etc. in bondage rather than discipline- Serve the Lord with gladness, not out of bondage; He came to serve me- Religion tries to stitch the curtain back together; Satan founded religion- Before you get into Bible study, deep prayer... let’s eat; stop trying to impress- Jesus loved and cared for people closely, not repulsed by- Repentance is not beating oneself down... I’m sorry and go on; taking up cross is not self-hatred; humility is not self-loathing; brokenness not a deflated existence- You won’t let Him in because the house is dirty; example of organizing closet- Don’t let the mess keep you from opening the door; the mess doesn’t bother Him

Scripture: I Peter 5:6-9
Topic: Spiritual WarfareNotes:- Pornography in the church; families falling apart- Our enemy is not flesh and blood but people are being used; spirit of lust taking over- No conviction anymore. We think “He’ll forgive” instead of fighting the good fight- The Church is intact; the blood of Jesus still has the power- Take up your cross and fight in the power of the Holy Spirit- The devil highlights the negative but Jesus is still greater- The difference in surrendering and giving up; surrender to Jesus and cast your cares...- Wake up. Kids are inquisitive. Your kids may be good but still have the sin nature- Make the decision... this home is a holy place. Be vigilant- The adversary is roaming, seeking someone he may devour... week, tired, sick...- Depression is a sickness. Sin messed up the whole body- We’re guilty of having our own revival while looking down on others- The Devil can only work where he has permission- Stay on your knees, in the Bible and in fellowship- Resist the devil in the faith (in Jesus); Jesus has given you all you need

We tell them to restrain themselves...- Israel is an unholy nation, but we’re looking at the call of God on the people- Terrorism doesn’t discriminate. Islamist thinking is from hell- The church must love the world to witness to it but we are not of it.- A nation that does not support Israel will go down- Islam want western civilization destroyed- Don’t forget law enforcement and the military who fight to protect us and freedom- Antichrist is coming, tribulation, and Israel will be saved. We will return with Jesus to rule reign- It is sin to turn our backs on a nation that needs help.

Scripture: II Timothy 1:6-7
Topic: FearNotes:- Sometimes you have to stir things up in your own life or fear will enter- We are to tell people the gospel then make disciples- Christians are afraid they will fail God or someone else... fear going to hell... so they play it safe...- If you’re afraid God won’t keep you then you have more faith in your own ability- There will be some casualties but live aggressively- No enemy is bigger than Jesus inside of me- The spirit of fear will cause you to over prepare- Soldiers behind enemy lines, given only what is needed- We become heavy laden with knowledge, answers... we have it all planned out- We get more upset by cursing and smoking than the world going to hell, injustices- We are close minded, self-centered; the spirit of God will take you where it is dark and dangerous

Notes:- Christians are most boring people sometimes... afraid something worldly will happen- Piano tuning... same thing over and over- People followed Jesus because there was something exciting and unique- There’s not enough Jesus in our Christianity- “Text message from heaven”... a dead message with no personality- The Jews had a hard time accepting Jesus as God; we struggle seeing Him as a man- What if He’s not like anything you’ve been taught- Water into wine at wedding feast...- Some say it wasn’t like wine of today: you’re missing the point, more churchy than spiritual, you’d rather defend personal conviction than let scripture speak for itself- Jesus comes to add a new dimension to things we’re supposed to be enjoying- Jesus is not who you thought He was; didn’t die so you could barely get into heaven but so you could march into the gates with His victory- You don’t gradually get saved; at that moment you get all of God- Ask Him and you will see His glory

Scripture: Acts 14:19-23
Topic: Endurance
Notes:- We are not supposed to be a monotonous people; life is a ferris wheel- Paul was stoned and left for dead and the disciples gathered around him... this is why you should go to church... you cannot fight the devil alone- The enemy tries to isolate you then persuades others that you are the enemy- The Devil does not have authority; he is limited by God- The more you seek God, the more a threat you are to darkness; you will be chased, attacked, accused- Rejoice. Your reward in heaven is great; sometimes you must encourage yourself- Jesus is my inheritance; all of His children get all He has- You’ll spend your life fighting; don’t get weary in well doing- I die to myself to give to my children; we die so Jesus will be evident to others- Your labor in the Lord is not in vain- Story about guy repelled into swamps with a knife and rope to survive a week... if you want to live bad enough you use what you’ve got.

Topic: Choices/Decisions
Notes:- The enemies objective is to steal from you, to destroy and to kill, to take the life out of your faith and put fear in your heart- Jesus came that we may have life more abundantly; your life can be better- I can make decisions; I have a will, mind, understanding; my decisions will determine how I will feel and what kind of fruit I will harvest- You can choose to believe in God and walk in faith or to be afraid and doubt- You choose to forgive, to be happy, overcoming pride, rebellion, hard heartedness- I am responsible for the condition I’m in right now- God’s children are not victims... I’m only a victim of my own choice- I’m here because I didn’t pray or because I did...- A lion has to fight flies all day long. It’s part of being alive- People pray for rain but don’t like mud- Things may be getting worse but it’s not over yet- Be careful what you choose, who you choose to marry or go into business with- Add to your faith self-control and perseverance- Stick with it till you get there... postage stamp Christians- Chinese bamboo: first four years seemingly little growth, then in five weeks grows 90’.- Everything you do for His name counts.

Scripture: Luke 9:12-17
Topic: Brokeness
Notes:- Feeding of the 5000; Jesus took the boy’s fish and loaves, blessed, broke and multiplied it- God owns it all to begin with; He will take from us, bless us and break us...- If we are blessed we will be broken; there is no multiplying without breaking- We are not here for ourselves but as part of the family of God- Singers, preachers... know when they are good. God will break them so they can become a vessel to be used- Nothing turns out the way you thought it would but God will take care of you- During the process people question and compare themselves to others... we fail to see God’s hand in it- God’s ways, plans and timing are different for everybody- What are you carrying into 2012?- Photo of military official standing in porta jon, wearing Santa hat and holding gun...

Jesus is coming; I want the is world to cause me heartache so I’ll want to leave- Sometimes it seems like prayer doesn’t work...- Simeon trusted God and was devoted; what will you do while you are waiting?- You can become confused, bitter, angry; you may feel like a failure- Mary, while she waited for the birth of Jesus... John leapt in Elizabeth’s womb- God shows mercy to those who fear Him- While you are waiting do the right thing, be nice to people, do something spiritual- You’ve been here frequently but will not be permanently- Rejoice in hope; it is going to get better- Give to the needs of the saints

Scripture: Matthew 26:31-35, 69-75; Luke 22:31-34; Romans 7:24
Topic: Endurance
Notes:- Crisis changes us into what God wants us to be, not for ourselves but for others- We will face things we do not like that do come from God- Catalytic converter metaphor; crisis acts as a catalyst to convert poisons in your life into something that will help your brother- The more you suffer, the more compassion you will have for the suffering- When crisis converts you, it will rid you of competition, arrogance...- Peter denied, then wept bitterly at the realization of what he was really about- We become battle weary, we go back and forth; Paul wrestled to do good...- After battle a man has a surge of testosterone, makes him do stupid, dangerous things- After a spiritual battle it is dangerous to let you guard down; you have a sense of arrogance, are tired, make bad decisions you may regret the rest of your life- Without the catalyst of a crisis we let our guards down and end up weeping bitterly- But Jesus didn’t give up on Peter; He already knew he would deny Him

Notes:- Crisis changes us into what God wants us to be, not for ourselves but for others- We will face things we do not like that do come from God- Catalytic converter metaphor; crisis acts as a catalyst to convert poisons in your life into something that will help your brother- The more you suffer, the more compassion you will have for the suffering- When crisis converts you, it will rid you of competition, arrogance...- Peter denied, then wept bitterly at the realization of what he was really about- We become battle weary, we go back and forth; Paul wrestled to do good...- After battle a man has a surge of testosterone, makes him do stupid, dangerous things- After a spiritual battle it is dangerous to let you guard down; you have a sense of arrogance, are tired, make bad decisions you may regret the rest of your life- Without the catalyst of a crisis we let our guards down and end up weeping bitterly- But Jesus didn’t give up on Peter; He already knew he would deny Him

Scripture: Luke 19; John 9:1, 6, 21
Topic: Evangelism
Notes:- We should be obsessed with telling people about Jesus- Christmas is about God coming to where we are to seek and save the lost- The only place there is no hope is hell- When something isn’t right we want to blame someone; don’t blame, trust God- Sometimes God lets things happen so he can turn it around for His glory- Jesus healed blind man on the Sabbath; the people did not rejoice but took him to the Pharisees... religious rule more important than the miracle or the person- Have we dismissed people trying to protect our church and identity... have we dismissed people because they didn’t change, understand, or bear fruit immediately?- We have to be so trusting that we become vulnerable in order to accept people; soul winning will cost you something- Director of recovery center in Florida... one man pursued him until he turned to God- Christianity is about going after people

Jesus didn’t call us to decide who should live or die, or who is saved or lost, but to tell of the love of God- Jesus did not come to condemn but to save- Love is a decision, not a feeling... the most powerful thing in the world- Story of nephew on drugs, on the street... be willing to go after somebody when everyone else has given up- Love never gives up

Seeks someone from the house of Saul to honor... finds Mephibosheth at age 17, shows grace to him- Accept God’s grace and give it away- Pure religion is to look after those in need, care for yourself and one another- Conviction will either make you a better person or bring you down

Notes:
- Books on fasting... if you fast then don’t make a big deal about it- Christianity turned into an industry; sacred turned into merchandise- How arrogant of a human being to try to change God’s mind- Fasting has become a tool to strong-arm God to move in our direction- Biblical fasting is to find out what it is God wants you to do- Preachers today are demanding-certain car, hotel, kinds of water... picked up and escorted, not to be bothered by anybody- God wants you to live a balanced, moral, Christian, dedicated, spirit filled life... at times God may move on you to fast to humble your soul, not to get power- God won’t honor what you do if you don’t have a relationship with your family- Obey God, love one another, help those who cannot help themselves- When you do what he tells you to do then you shall call and the Lord will answer- Live right, tell the truth, love the Lord, love your wife & family, pray, do the right thing and you will be healthy

Notes:
- You don’t measure a hospital by its health but by its help; the church is a hospital- People are in the pit needing answers- God hears when you call; don’t be afraid- Pit: miry clay-quicksand you cannot get out of yourself.

- If your cause is not Jesus alone then you have lost your focus- Something will arise to snatch our attention away from Jesus- Your faith is not supposed to be complicated-you’ve lost focus- Happiness is in the grace of God alone; you’re missing the joy of the journey- People get bent out of shape over current events, gays, liberals...- People don’t want what you have; Jesus gives peace and joy- Don’t be satisfied with a little- When first saved there was only one book that mattered; I wanted Jesus, was praying and reading, not looking for another rally or seminar- Christian authors don’t agree with one another- We substitute study for prayer- Authors write but have no experience with people- Most scholars are deficient in prayer; knowledge puffs up, love builds up- It doesn’t really matter when Jesus is coming back: live right and love God- Know Him not so I can prove a point but to live in the power of the resurrection

Scripture: Isaiah 30:18-20; 64:4-5; John 11:15
Topic: Waiting on God
Notes:
- God will never adjust His timing to your life or prayer- Prayer is not to get God to do something but to allow Him to do something in you- Wait for Him as He waits to bless you- “water of affliction” and “bread of adversity” to make you depend on God- God waits till we’re at the end of the road with nowhere to go- God waits but is never late- As long as your prayers have a deadline they are fleshly prayers- Waiting room of doctor’s office... just because you made an appointment doesn’t mean you’ll be seen when you think you will- God acts for the one who waits for Him- You will never understand the ways of God- God does everything according to His own will- Surrender, trust God; you’ll have to turn off the TV, make some sacrifices

Topic: Evangelism
Notes:
- God shows no favoritism; whoever calls on His name is accepted- Our calling is to preach the gospel, make disciples; if you do not share Jesus then you do not have the Holy Ghost- We are not to love one group more than another; we cannot choose who to give the gospel to; anybody who needs my help is my neighbor- Jonah hated the Ninevites; God’s love is not up to you- The Jews felt they were the chosen of God and would not associate with anyone else- Unbelieving Israel hurting believing Arabs; I don’t have to support an unrighteous nation: nations and governments are called to support Israel, not individuals- When you are chosen you proclaim the light, obey and serve God (apostles)- You must be born again; not a Jew who is outwardly but inwardly- Margaret Gaines excerpt on rebuilding the temple- Serbs, in the name of Christianity, murdering Bosnians who never heard the gospel- People so happy about Jesus but disinterested in people without Jesus...

Scripture: Genesis 6:5-12, 22; Matthew 24:36-39; Hebrews 11:7’ I John 3:1-3; Romans 1:18
Topic: Obedience
Notes:
- We are living in days just like those of Noah; these are signs of the times but nobody knows the day or hour; live as it could happen at any moment- We ought to be in church, ministry, the Word, prayer; don’t get loose or comfortable- Godly fear is lacking in the church today- Noah prepared, built and preached. Preparation is constant.- We get used to disobedience then can’t figure why we can’t get a prayer through- We must be obedient; stay in preparation.- Obedience condemns the world, not in a hateful, self-righteous way (Christians at the gay pride parade). That’s not Jesus.- You can’t hide being a Christian in the world; living right exposes sin.- Christians have mixed into scripture philosophy, religion, evolution... faith(s)... there is only one body, one spirit, one faith. Everything else is religion or cult- Without Jesus you will die and go to hell- Science should not be necessary to validate your faith; it’s true because God says it.- Through scripture, God gives insights into any question you can ask... creation, origin of man, races, etc.

Scripture: Lamentations 3:25, 26, 28; John 6; Habakkuk 2:2
Topic: Waiting on God
Notes:
- Testimony: Lisa Starnes- We don’t know how to wait past the mental struggle, feelings, the temporal...- Waiting on God is difficult but brings the greatest reward- Division of the tabernacle: outer court, inner court, most holy place- Too many live in the outer court, some live in inner court, only a few go deeper...- Disciples who heard Jesus say “eat my flesh, drink my blood” went away; 70 worked for Him, 12 walked with Him, 3 worshipped Him, but only John waited on Him- Do I just want to work, walk or worship or can I be so close I can feel His love, peace, calm, assurance- You can’t make God work; can’t make yourself grow in Christ; He grows you- Those who wait on the Lord are never disappointed, they hear from Him, have faith and have shown great faith

Scripture: Colossians 3:1-4; 2:3; I John 4:15; John 17; Psalm 83:3
Topic: Assurance
Notes:
- Man was designed to trust God; after sin entered, man began to rely on feelings first, doubting the facts- Sin is processing your life through your senses- Our first reaction to a problem is to try something; should be to trust something- Feelings are the most sinful thing, the most unreliable factor in human existence- God does not react to feelings; He is moved by faith- Salvation is not a feeling; we’re saved by grace through faith- Regardless of feeling we must believe we are saved- Feelings have nothing to do with your relationship with God- God sent the savior, then gave you the power and faith to go to Him- Every gift from God is eternal; salvation is eternal- We are the Father’s gift to the Son; the Son is the Father’s gift to us- We can never change who our parents are; your heritage is in your blood/DNA- We are hidden in Christ and Christ in the Father

Scripture:I
Topic: Prayer
Notes:
- We ask for small things; God delights in giving to His children- If we ask in faith, we can expect God to do something- We become more enchanted with the written than the Living Word; - More intellectual than spiritual; obsessed with the future while wasting the present- I want to finish my years pastoring as I started, on my face and caring for the flock- Are we limiting God? We know with our minds, but our hearts can go beyond anything our minds can imagine; guard your heart- Israel limited God... comfortable with what God had already done, but not with what he could do, never expecting a miracle- We ought to be asking for what sounds preposterous- We pray for what we think we need; God knows what we really need and wants to bless us with His goodness- We ask God for childish things and then run on; we need to wait on God- Praying & studying is a means to a relationship with God, but can get in the way- Until we wait patiently we will never know the secrets He has in store...

Scripture: I John 1:8-10; 2:1-2
Topic: Sin
Notes:
- Sin is why Christ died; man disobeyed God, trying to draw life from something other than God and man’s spirit died- Emotions and feelings now control man; the human race is confused & twisted- On the cross God reconciled man to God; we are new creations, living by the Spirit and in the sanctifying process- Eternal salvation: He started it and He will finish it; your condemnation is removed forever but temptation remains- Example: hurricane Irene... power and dominion (of sin) gone but influence remains- Temptation is a proof that I am saved; it’s not my fault that I’m tempted but I have the power to not give in- Some think they don’t sin... thinking of sins of commission (obvious sins), but sins of omission remain, not doing the good we know to do- Not praying for our President and other authoritative leaders is a sin of omission- When you sin, don’t stare at it; it came out of your heart but don’t grieve too long over it; run to Jesus- The enemy wants to keep you from God’s forgiveness as long as possible; the longer you wait, the longer your relationship with Jesus will be disrupted and disturbed

Scripture:I Chronicles 16:8-10; Hebrews 10:19-23; 13:5-6; Matthew 18:18-20
Topic: Prayer
Notes:
- Prayer is the most powerful thing we can do on this earth, a connection to the supernatural that always makes something happen- “If you ask anything in my name I will do it”... the integrity of God is at stake- When we pray we have little expectation for a result; we pray out of Christian obligation... our faith decreases and there is no joy when we pray- We ought to rejoice because we get to seek the Lord God answers prayer- We don’t talk enough about what God has done in our lives- Sometimes we get so fascinated with the written word that we miss the relationship with the Living Word; the written word points us to the Living Word; the Living Word makes the written word come alive- You don’t deserve what God has given you but He gave it to you by grace and expects you to walk in with boldness in the authority of the shed blood of Christ- Be content with what you have- What you bind/loose on earth is bound/loosed in heaven- When two agree it will be done; when two or three gather I am in their midst

Scripture: John 8:56-59; 16:24; I Corinthians 1:30-31; Micah 7:18-20
Topic: God the Father
Notes:
- There is no limit to what God can do; “Before Abraham was, I AM”- God will not let you define who he is- Jehovah means “I AM”- The ever present one; eternity has nothing to do with time; God doesn’t deal in the past; God is the eternal present- Where there is sorrow, misery, heartache, suffering, confusion... there is Jesus- God longs to help us; He is waiting on the invitation- I AM that I AM... nothing breaks that eternal circle except human need; He becomes whatever you need- Because of God you are in Christ Jesus; God made Jesus to become sin so that we could be righteous- Man wants to take credit for his salvation; Glory only in God- It pleased the Lord for us to ask Him for things- God is not surprised by your sin; some have committed such sin that they don’t know where they are with God... God understands; as long as you call on the name of the Lord, there is cleansing- It’s not about feeling anything but about trusting what He said

Scripture: Philippians 2:12-14; Ephesians 2; Mark 7:15-23; I Peter 3:1-4, 7
Topic: Salvation
Notes:
- A sinner is a prisoner born in prison; has never known freedom; controlled by Satan- Unless the spirit of God invades, you will never be released- No human has ever been free; there is no such thing as free will; you always choose within the confines of what controls you- When Jesus sets you free you become His slave; either working for God or the devil- When first saved, you still think like a prisoner... you think God is interested in visible sins, then start comparing yourself to others which always lowers God’s standard... eventually we see it’s about the condition of the heart- Husbands and wives don’t preach to one another. Wives submit; husbands honor...- We have trouble leaving people alone and letting God work it out- Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling

Scripture:Hebrews 7:23-25; Luke 22:31-32
Topic: Prayer
Notes:
- Satan requests permission to attack certain people... sifted as wheat.- God does not deliver us from every tragedy but He stands with us- When He calls you home you might as well shout and go- Jesus is praying for you- Jesus is prophet, priest and king- God has heard your prayers- Pray with confidence; come to God with boldness- The Holy Spirit is there to help you pray, to pray through you

Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-2; John 17:11, 15, 20-24
Topic: The Gospel
Notes:
- Before anything else there was God; Father, Son and Spirit... time would be created, a cycle. The fall of Lucifer was known, as well as of man. The father devised a plan...- The Old Testament is the first part of God’s revelation, showing man’s inability to redeem himself- Jesus is everything; Jesus prays for all believers; we are one in Jesus; the victory of Jesus is ours- Besetting sins... keep falling, repenting, repeating... we blame God for not helping, get obsessive to stop but can’t do it... not enough will power.- He didn’t come to make you strong, but for you to die, give up; we can’t do anything without Jesus- Every failure is due to a lack of prayer; we cannot live a victorious life without a prayer life; we cannot make it without the word of God

Scripture:Matthew 7:1-5; I Corinthians 4:1-5
Topic: Prayer
Notes:
- Prayer is the most powerful and accessible thing we can do on earth- Prayer is not just a means to get something; it is a means to know God- God is concerned about changing things in you, not around you; prayer helps us see things in us that are not like God- What hinders prayer: unbelief, sin, a man disrespect his wife... how we treat people- You cannot be any closer to God than you are to your wife- God honors obedience- Judge not lest you be judged...- Story: man on subway with two children out of control... you don’t know what is going on in people’s lives- We don’t even understand our own heart- The more broken we are, the less critical we’ll be; the more filled with the spirit, the more compassion we have- The merciful will obtain mercy- I don’t have anything to defend... I have done what I’m accused of in some way- We are here by the grace of God, accepted through Jesus Christ- Christians think they are to be the enforcers... but should be the examples- The only thing that matters in this world is people- Story: a pastor in a doughnut shop buys a b-day cake for a woman...

Scripture: Hebrews 12:1-2; Psalm 42
Topic: Focus
Notes:
- If I’m troubled, discouraged, afraid, anxious then I’ve stopped looking at Jesus- He started your faith and will continue your faith; keep your eyes on Jesus- David talking to himself; we let our old selves talk to us (things of the past, defeat, misery), the new self must talk back- Old self will say you’re not even saved, backslidden... you cannot lose your salvation!- When I need it most God stands up in my life and delivers me from my destruction- Crying out and deliverance always go together- You cannot look at your problems and be victorious

Scripture: Exodus 33:18-23; 34:5-7; John 17:5; I King 8:56
Topic: The Gospel
Notes:
- The cross of Jesus Christ is the best and the worst thing that has happened on earth- Conversation between Moses & God: Moses says “show me your glory.” God says “My goodness will pass before you.”- The apostles at the cross saw the glory of God- When we don’t understand the cross, we don’t understand our need for Jesus- God’s goodness is His grace; God’s glory is His grace- Jesus represented us on the cross; God turned His back on our sins- God will not clear the guilty; without repentance, men will be rejected by God- When we repent, we are forgiven for yesterday and tomorrow- Vision walking through garden with Jesus; He points out what must be removed- Don’t glory in anything other than Christ- A sinner rejects Jesus; a sinning saint neglects Jesus- We have the sin of prayerlessness; when we don’t pray our hunger for scripture evaporates; we should believe when we pray...

Scripture:Philippians 1:29; II Thessalonians 1:4-5; I Peter 4:12-14; Isaiah 51:1; I Kings 6:7; Romans 8:18
Topic: Suffering
Notes:
- Every Christian suffers- It is denial of the scripture to say that if people are really walking by faith they will not suffer- We do not see as God sees- Suffering granted to us by God is proof that we are God’s- God is sovereign- The devil only does what God gives him permission to do; the devil has become the means by which our faith is increased- Stone quarry... where stones are hewn out of rock; the father is cutting...- Press toward the mark- Sometimes we suffer that the glory of God might be manifest- Don’t waste your sufferings by complaining, quitting, running... praise Him for it... tell Him to make you a willing vessal
2011-07-17-1030 Pastor Loran Livingston is the speaker this morning Juy 17th 2011 in the 10:30 service.
Scripture: Ephesians 3:14-19; Lamentations 3:19-23
Topic: Assurance
Notes:
- We must be solidly planted in the love of God- God’s love is everlasting and unconditional- Isaiah said “woe is me”... as we discover we are not what we want to be... we must understand we are saved and God is working things out of us... it is painful- If you don’t have a parallel revelation of the love of God, you’ll be a hopeless person- Paul addressed himself first as least of the apostles, then least of the saints, then chief of sinners; personal evaluation of self will not improve but your love and appreciation for what He did for you will- When we get weary we are vulnerable to the attacks of the devil- We couldn’t love Him; He loved us first- He forgives and will love you, build you up, bless, protect and provide for you- We are saved by grace and kept by the power of the Holy Spirit- The prodigal son was forgiven before he even spoke his repentance- Spiritual assault like never before... every past sin brought back... remorse, guilt and fear... compulsion to repent until I almost lost my mind... this did not come from God- Satan lies about the nature of God: says you are not forgiven, that you will never be free, that you must try harder, that you’ve blasphemed the Holy Spirit, and that God has lost patience with you- God is not a punisher; He chastens us to pull us back to Him as His child- What was begun in the spirit cannot be completed in the flesh- A blasphemer does not want God

Scripture: Hebrews 2:17-18; Mark 9:36; 10:46-52; Psalm 51:1-3
Topic: Mercy
Notes:
- God is merciful and full of compassion; we get judgmental towards people- People don’t know better; we didn’t either and Jesus had compassion on us- God saw people being bullied by the devil; we are helpless without God- You are not in control; we are either controlled by darkness or by light- God saw the helplessness of the people, like sheep without a shepherd- Blind Bartimaeus by the roadside begging- Sometimes we feel like Jesus is passing us by; He will not pass you by... He will not ignore your plea- We begin to live with sins that easily beset us; we get comfortable with them and they begin to hinder our prayers... we must examine ourselves- Don’t maximize sins either, thinking you’ve sinned such that you are hopless- We talk too much; need to lay our tongues on the altar- Maybe I don’t have enough compassion- Love your neighbor as yourself- We need new conviction about the junk we watch on TV... it will destroy desire for spiritual things and numb our sensitivity to right and wrong- God doesn’t want your sin to always be before you; forget those thing behind

Scripture: I Kings 18
Topic: Prayer
Notes:
- Elijah on Mount Carmel faced 450 prophets of Baal... built an altar to God and they an altar to their gods.- If God is God then serve Him; if Baal is god then serve him- Elijah prayed and God answered by fire- God want to answer when we pray; why are our prayers so many and answers so few?- If we are truly where we need to be with God, doing what we are to be doing, shouldn’t we expect God to move when we pray?- If the altar needs repair then nothing else works; if it isn’t cared for it will deteriorate- Maintain the altar of the Lord on a daily basis or there will be no answer- We must remember who we are in Him, gather the people, repair the altar, make time to pray... it must be the #1 priority in my life.

Notes:
- David & Goliath- Every day I must go back down to the valley and face Goliath- I will not be able to win this battle with Saul’s armor (worldly weapons)- If you have not first been in the presence of God, Goliath will look bigger...- What does your giant look like?- When you feel there is no way out... bad marriage, job (out of work), depression, addiction...- Everything Israel did was dependent on Goliath... fear- Learn how to confront Goliath- You do not have to be afraid or lose every day- This is not your battle; it is the Lord’s- The enemy cannot keep you from praising God who brings you victory

Scripture: Luke 15:6-10
Topic: Celebration
Notes:
- The prodigal son’s real sin was that he was living without a relationship with his father; he valued only what he could get from his father- The same spirit that rose Jesus from the dead abides in you- Lay your burdens down and enjoy the party Jesus is throwing- Prodigal son left home to party... at first this is fun but it will destroy you; his father threw a better party on his return- Weddings... dancing with daughters... what’s wrong with dancing when we celebrate?- Christians are afraid to celebrate, that someone will see or talk about...- Other cultures celebrate; they don’t have the inhibitions we have- Celebration ought to be commonplace every time we get together- As a child asked “how come they have all the fun?” Answer: “they don’t have what we have.” But what do we have?- The world does not want what they see of us... we have to show that we have something they wish they had- You may be away from God drawing nearer, or near to God drawing away

Scripture:
Topic: Hope
Notes:
- God is infinitely wonderful... always working to bring people into the kingdom- Jewish man saved, cut off from family to later find sister has been completed (saved)- We think God will move stronger if we are more confident- The Spirit prays through us with groanings when we don’t know how to pray- Some think it’s a treat for a Pastor to get a message every week... I sometimes want to give up or do something else... then I give the message and the altars fill up...- God is able to do beyond us (the power of Jesus inside of)- Some of the greatest moves of God come from people who feel like they’ve failed, didn’t communicate....

Scripture: Matthew 16:13-18; Romans 3:9-18; Psalm 103:10-14
Topic: Jesus the Son
Notes:
- The root cause of our world’s trouble is sin. One solution: Jesus- How we should view unsaved: under domination of Satan, sick, crippled, blind, dead, wicked, angry... they can only act out their condition- For the church to hate sinners is to miss the heart of Jesus- We know we are the body of Christ when we cry about the condition of sinners and long to help them come to the saving knowledge of Jesus- When saved you have been drawn by the spirit and a process begins- Now you have another enemy who is focused on your demise- None have sought after God... He chose you... “follow me”- We’re trying to get people to follow the church... instead we must create an interest in Jesus by the way we live- Go where they are... they aren’t coming where you are- Know what you believe of Him, not what someone else says they believe- We’re trying to get people to come to Jesus, not straighten them out- We’re trying to figure who is in and who is out... it’s not our business- People don’t get fixed perfectly right away- He has not dealt with us according to our sins

Scripture: II Corinthians 4:16-18; Isaiah 54:17
Topic: Victory
Notes:
- Do not invest in the temporary; invest in the eternal- If you want to be victorious think on God things- Don’t lose heart... our light affliction is temporary. He’s helping me carry it- What I’m going through now is producing an eternal weight of glory- Looking at temporary things keeps you stirred up, worried, mad, burdened...- You feed yourself with the news... conservative doesn’t mean Christian- I’m not interested in political party; we are supposed to be Christians- Christians will spread light, tell the truth, love enemies, have compassion for sinners, feed the hungry, build a house for the homeless... reach out beyond yourself- Look at things that are not seen; Elisha’s servant saw they were surrounded by the Syrians... Elisha prayed “God, open their eyes...they are looking at what is seen”- Those who are for you far outnumber those who are against you

Topic: The Gospel
Notes:
- No one knows the day or hour of His return (referencing failed prediction)- If we are assured of our faith, it doesn’t matter when He’s coming back- His perfect love for you casts out fear, enables you to live a bold, victorious life- Every human (except Jesus) is born a sinner- When Adam & Eve sinned, God killed an animal and made a covering for them- The blood of Christ covers our sin, our shame, our nakedness- Satan brings up what you’ve done; for 930 years Adam saw the effects of his sin- When we get saved and live in a Christian environment we begin to resent sinners for what they do; don’t forget where He brought you from- The church is not here to present an image- The first Adam sinned; the second Adam came to bring you out of what you were born in to; we are first born of the flesh and then of the spirit- The free gift of righteousness God has given to me- No weapon formed against you shall prosper

Scripture: Philippians 4:6-8; Psalm 139
Topic: Spiritual Warfare
Notes:
- Navy Seal memoirs... trained mentally to withstand and overpower... “every battle is won or lost in your mind”- Cast down imaginations; take your thought life into captivity- We lose our battles when we start off in defeat, looking at what could happen- We make through by acknowledging Jesus in the moment- The power that is in us is the same power that raised Jesus from the dead- Prepare you heart and mind; think on things that are holy, pure...- God is light; you cannot be defeated- Something happens every time we pray

Scripture: Colossians 3:1-5; 1:17; Psalm 139
Topic: Hope
Notes:
- The old you is dead, does not exist; let that become a reality- We came into the world dead because of sin- By the power of the Holy Spirit we were quickened when we heard the gospel and accepted, received and believed- We were dead to God and now are dead to sin, the law, the principles of the world- The law could not save us from our sins; only could highlight them- Jesus kept the law, fulfilled the law and gave us His righteousness- We are dead to the law and alive in Christ Jesus; no condemnation against us- We are in warfare but the war is won; He gave us His victory; I have eternal life- Don’t mix philosophy with faith- Don’t go back to what Christ already fulfilled: feast days, holy days...- I am a child of God, crucified with Christ, buried with Him (in baptism) and raised from the dead- If Jesus can save you from sin, any other problem is not even an issue- Jesus holds everything together- We have all done crazy, prayerless, careless things, but God is still there (if I make my bed in hell)- You may feel far from God, but God is not far from you

Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30; Exodus 14:5, 8-15
Topic: Forgiveness
Notes:
- Story of mother on death bed asking for forgiveness- Our sense of unworthiness, inability to forgive ourselves, desperately wondering if we’ll ever get our lives fixed... carrying a burden not intended by God- Come to Jesus and find rest- Jesus is meek. The fight must come out of you; stop trying to prove something... or to be right all the time. Be reliant on the Father- His yoke is easy (yoke not of oxen, but a stick for carrying buckets over the shoulders); if my yoke isn’t easy, whose yoke did I put on?- When I carry someone else’s yoke, there’s no rest in my soul, no peace in my life- God put the Israelites at the Red Sea; Pharaoh meant to recapture them- They went out with boldness, then fear overtook them (as they looked back)- God to Moses “Stop crying out and move forward.” You have to start moving forward before God will open up what hinders your progress- One of the heaviest burdens to carry is unforgiveness- Satan knows he cannot recapture you so he tries to control you- You may be a child of God under Satan’s control if you are unwilling to forgive- Forgiveness is the most powerful God-like action we can do- Great marriages, friendships, families are made up of great forgivers- Forgiveness always defeats Satan, brings victory, lightens burdens and brings rest

Scripture: Psalm 56
Topic: Suffering
Notes:
- If trouble comes your way, what will be the first thing you do?- I fully expect trouble- David ran to the Lord- God collects our prayers and tears- I know when I call on God my enemies will turn back because God is for me...- God will help you because He is God.

Scripture: Luke 5:4-10; John 13:7; Isaiah 43:19; I Corinthians 10:13
Topic: Sovereignty of God
Notes:
- By God’s design... you are where He means for you to be right now- There are no such things as an accident, luck, chance, karma, fortune... God is sovereign- Hagar, Joseph, Moses...situations seem unfair but were ordered by God- God knew David would sin but called him anyway- Disciples, Jesus, apostles after resurrection... all tortured. - Why does God allow His children to face what we face? To show us that in each situation He is full in control- We think our sin disqualifies us or that God only moves for us when we are faithful- The more we realize how rebellious we are, the more he pours blessing on us- I’ve walked in fear that I haven’t repented and am incapable...- Repentance is to take it to Jesus; we don’t have the ability to never sin again- He knows what you feel- God led Israel to the Red Sea, an impossible place, so they could see who He is- You don’t understand now but someday you will know- You will face no temptation that is not common to man

Scripture: Matthew 28:1-8; Acts 1:3
Topic: Resurrection
Notes:
- The resurrection of Jesus is not just some theory- Some say the body was stolen; if by disciples the truth would have come out by torture; if by His enemies they would have put it on display- Some say He was in a coma; if so how did he move the stone to get out- Evolution: not one fact to back it up, yet people embrace evolution while calling the resurrection a foolish theory- Jesus appeared to hundreds: Mary Magdalene, disciples, men on the road to Emmaus, Thomas, seven disciples fishing, 500 men worshipping, Stephen being stoned, Saul- Some did not recognize Him; unless He opens your eyes you never will- It is not our place to write anyone off; God never gave up on me- Jesus called us and will continue to use us; let God do the growing- God never deals with two people the same way (story of church people at bar)- If He calls you He will perfect you... for the rest of your life- If the resurrection is nothing more than a beautiful historical event, it is worthless- The resurrection is a present day active reality in my life- When you become a believer you become victorious for eternity- He conquered death; you will never die- God has kept me; I am already seated in a heavenly place

Scripture:Acts 7:25-33
Topic: Humility
Notes:
- Stephen’s account of Moses... killed a man to deliver another (by his own hand)- Peter cut off the ear of the servant of the high priest.- We too feel like we must do something, that by our hand things will be better- Our life must be of prayer and dependent on God- Moses wandering... the burning bush. God took his sword and then his sandals; first impulse, then his ability to run and hide- We run off excited or in fear while we should stand still until God finishes talking- We have been impetuous, impulsive and have relied too little on prayer- We’ve pulled out the sword and used it when it should not have been used- We’ve run away afraid of what God was doing in our lives- ... we pay for it for the rest of our lives- Abraham, Sarah, Hagar... tried to do it on their own. The Ishmaelites were born...

- He acts for those who wait for Him- You must stir yourself up to reconnect with God- If we really believed something happens when we pray, wouldn’t we do more of it?- We get discouraged when we don’t see immediate definable results- The greatest sin in the church is prayerlessness... other sins, sickness are prevalent because of and the state of our country is due to prayerlessness- It is our call to pray without ceasing- The disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit to go out and affect a group of people- Cornelius-while he was praying, God was speaking to people- Peter’s vision-what God called clean, he was calling dirty- Prayer is not just to get out of trouble or to get by a little easier- We are sometimes focused so much on personal situations that we can’t see God moving outside of that- The Lord’s prayer... don’t get comfortable with God or you lose respect; we are too familiar... we need a revival of fear and respect- There are people around the world suffering for Christ; we haven’t truly suffered- The greatest sin the human race has committed against itself is slavery, human trafficking- Pray for the persecuted and martyred Christians around the world

Scripture: Acts 9:15
Topic: Evangelism
Notes:
- How do you know you are filled with the Holy Spirit?- Paul was an angry religious zealot; during period of blindness his religious spirit was broken and he was made a fit vessel of Jesus Christ.- We don’t love sinners the way servants of God must; we’re upset with those who threaten our own lifestyle rather than the effects sin is having on people.- We have too much religion; we have our own plans- You’re not filled with the spirit just because you speak in tongues- You know you’re filled with the spirit when you see a dying world and your heart breaks and all you want to do is make sure you show them who Jesus is.- Instead of being angry at gays and homosexuals, realize the same devil has control of them that had hold of you. People are victims of sin.- Many people have not been fortunate enough to have grown up as I did...- Without prayer my heart does not bleed for sinners; ask God for that burden.- Religion doesn’t make you love God or people.- The only reason we exist is to be Jesus Christ on this planet. Am I a soul winner?

Scripture: Acts 9:1-6; 11-12
Topic: Prayer
Notes:
- Who are you Lord and what do you want me to do?- It begins with a revelation of Jesus Christ. You can know scripture and doctrine and be able to teach it yet not have a personal relationship with Jesus- You are not a Christian until Jesus is your life; when doctrine and theology don’t make sense you still know Jesus- Saul was so committed to his faith that he hated those not of his faith. When blinded for three days he prayed. God told Ananias “even now he is praying.”- Christians are praying people. Pray and wait for further instruction.- Studying is not the same as praying.- When I pray infrequently, people crowd my thoughts.- As long as I think a person is my problem/ solution I will not get instruction from the Lord; God will use people but not the people you choose.- We must pray past people; bless your enemies.- Prayer doesn’t change things; prayer changes me so things don’t ill affect me- The church cannot take sides; we are to love all people (Israel, Palestinians, Hispanics...)- 10:30-we must love sinners, homosexuals, people we think a threat to our society

- The purpose of the church is NOT to get people saved, healed, delivered or reconciled to family/friends, missions, evangelism, to care for the needy, to praise & worship...- Purpose of the church IS the edification of the saints; when this is happening, the other things will also happen- We are all destitute sometime- We put the pressure on our pastor to edify... we are all supposed to edify one another.- If someone has a need, someone else should meet that need- This requires personal contact with other human beings- Snap judgments; Story of judgement based on one side of phone conversation in NY- For people to know our love is sincere, what our devotion and honor is, to share and be shared with, to show hospitality... we must build relationships.- We must challenge one another to do good things- Sometimes love waxes cold but it doesn’t make you any less called to do it.- Jesus loved so He went.

Scripture: I Peter 1:1-3; John
Topic: Hope
Notes:
- When we experience great sickness, disappointments, etc., there is hope in Jesus- At the tomb Peter was in despair; he saw that Jesus was alive and hope was restored- Peter fishing, followed Jesus’ instruction, nets full, realized Jesus as Son of God- God calls ordinary people... story of grandmother- Paul was educated, of favor; God call all kinds of people- Peter took his eyes off Jesus and began sinking, call to Jesus and was saved- Peter was willing to get out of the boat; story of hospital visitation (fainting)- Peter knew who Jesus was but misunderstood Him a few times... cut off Malchus’ ear- You can be sincere (as Peter) and still be wrong- Story: at Harris Teeter, tried to stop shopping cart from hitting woman’s car...- Peter’s denial; back to fishing... again Jesus showed up, brought hope

Scripture: Romans 8; Luke 15
Topic: Salvation
Notes:
- Parable of the lost coin, the lost sheep and the prodigal son- The older son... self-righteous, finding faults in others but not enjoying his father- The prodigal son... appetite for things of this world, spending his life on things that did not matter- There must be punishment for sin, so God sent Jesus to pay for our sins that He would be able to accept us`

Scripture: Luke 18:1-8; Philippians 4:4-7
Topic: Prayer
Notes:
- We have great music, preaching, etc. All we need to become disciples; what we lack is prayer. Prayer is work; does not come to us naturally.- Jesus equates losing heart with losing the power to pray- Prayer is never in vain; is a priority in the kingdom of God- Prayer brings peace of mind- Prayer is worship; it is not to be demanding of God- Communion with God (prayer) is the mightiest thing you can do- The widow and the unjust judge: he eventually avenged her as God will avenge His own in time. Be persistent.- Jesus asks if when He returns, will people have this faith-will they be praying?- The last day church does not see the need for prayer- When we have a problem, we talk it over more with people than with God

Scripture: Revelation 12:10; Romans 8:31-34
Topic: Grace
Notes:
- The enemy accuses you before God of being unfit, a liar, a sinner deserving of hell- Satan is trying to make God look bad for loving you- Sometimes God lets Satan loose on us as he did to Job; our lives seem to come all to pieces, blindsided by things we just can’t handle- Jesus took my sins; I’m no longer responsible for them- If I never feel anything again I am still saved- If God is for me, who can be against me?- A lot of things we are accused of, we are guilty of- Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect?- We are justified freely by His grace- Jesus intercedes for us; we are victorious through Jesus Christ

Topic: Grace
Notes:
- I don’t have the power to overcome, and often not the desire- We’re told there’s a level to achieve... you’re not there- You didn’t save yourself and cannot keep yourself; salvation begins and continues in Christ; through Him we overcome; sustained by His spirit- Lazarus was dead as we were; Jesus comes to raise us up- Spiritual death; the world doesn’t know they’re living in the worst condition- People think to get to heaven they must do something; only way is to believe in Jesus Christ; if one work is required then it is not by grace- Nothing can separate me from God; not my failure, inconsistency or carnal ways- Love and mercy in action are God’s grace to me- God’ grace is forever and unconditional- God will use your weakness- God didn’t take away the thorn in Paul’s side; when have you seen a miracle?- The grace of God does not discriminate- When you were saved, God justified you

Scripture: II Chronicles 29
Topic: Sin
Notes:
- Old Testament for Jewish people; New Testament come through Jesus for gentiles- People taking Passover offering-a gimmick, celebrating Jewish festivals, etc.- All I need to do is get my own life straight with God- How did the temple become the trash dump? Someone didn’t want to take the time to do the right thing. Hezekiah called to clean it out- Our bodies are the temple: to keep it clean there is constant discomfort- It is impossible to live without accumulating trash, but what you do with the trash determines how close you are to the Lord- People using the temple for their on ungodly uses; how we keep the temple is how we thing of God- People (in our society) are not moved by the gospel like they used to be- I’ve got to take care of my temple; the Bible has not changed; God’s rules not changed

Notes:
- Who will take power in the Arab nations? No one knows what to do.- Demonstration against believers in Israel instigated by Hasidic Jews, descendants of the Pharisees. They hate Jesus- Church of God on Mt of Olives in Arab village set on fire by Hasidic Jews.- Misconception in America about who hates who in Israel. The government of Israel driven by Hasidic Jews but they don’t serve in military, don’t pay taxes, etc.- Great deal of harm being done by evangelicals.- John Hagee (not by name): believes in dual covenant... that Jews don’t need Jesus to be saved, known as a friend of Israel- We do Jews a great disservice when we don’t tell them they need to be born again- A great persecution is coming to Israel...

Scripture: Romans 12:21; Daniel 7:21, 25
Topic: Family
Notes:
- Don’t be overcome by evil but overcome evil with good- Heaven is for overcomers; the enemy is relentless in his attacks against us- Each letter to the 7 churches in Revelation contained a promise to overcomers- We are all attacked or enticed sometimes. The church enticed to live loose lives... lasciviousness, living free... the sexually immoral can not go to heaven- Satan will wear out the saints; we are supposed to be victorious conquerors- Nothing wears out the saints like family problems- You can’t be honest with family members so you have to endure, dodge issues- Parents are often blind to or overlook their children’s weaknesses and mistakes- When in an inescapable situation there is only one way to overcome... I decide to take care of myself and let God take care of everyone else- By happy, encourage, forgive, be tolerant, flexible, serve Jesus... don’t be the source of tension or the cause of an argument...- It’s not about my feelings or my children’s... serve God no matter what- Be a peacemaker and a servant

Topic: Suffering
Notes:
- Jesus can sympathize with our weakness; He knows what we are feeling- We are needy people; our strength and help comes from the Lord- Jesus is our High Priest; He talks to the Father concerning you... moves God’s heart- A heretic said: Faith moves the heart of God; giving moves the hand of God- God knows where and who you are. You won’t get out of trouble because you give, but because He is God.

Topic: Faithfulness
Notes:
- Media story: in the future, will be able to distinguish between robots and human?- Description of the Beast in Revelation... uses “like”... could be robotic- Jesus is coming; we will all eventually die. We must be ready- When the attitude becomes that Jesus is delaying, wickedness follows- When people lose expectancy, we get careless about our thought lives and actions- The strength of my life is the Word and the power of my life is prayer- I must wait on my Master; I don’t know when He will appear- There should be a distinguishable difference between the church and the world- The world has crept deceptively into the church; preachers preaching another gospel- Only two days matter: this day and that day. I live this day to be ready for that day.- Young preachers want a big church... they want to be pampered and coddled... deified- If called of God, one will preach the whole counsel of God- People needing “a word”... might as well eat a fortune cookie.

Scripture: Galatians 5:24; John 8:31; I John 3:7-10
Topic: Faithfulness
Notes:
- There’s nothing more important than to be sure I’m ready- The gospel is offensive; have we been away from true Bible preaching so ling that when we hear it, it sounds too strong?- Start operating with last day desperation. Watch and pray.- People have been taught they can have a relationship with Christ but be out of fellowship with Him most of their lives- A Christian won’t spend years in rebellion (as a sinner would)- If saved, you’ll live right... abide in His word- If we say we have fellowship with Him but walk in darkness then we lie- He who practices righteousness is righteous; who does not is of the devil- Not everyone is going to heaven! Michael Jackson...- You cannot come to the Father except by the Son- There’s deception in churches today. Dead faith; no life, no testimony- We need to get desperate and pray for relatives to be saved

Notes:
- These are the last days; what we know is passing away; be ready- Antichrist will bring false peace to Middle East; 7 years tribulation; antichrist and false prophet will deceive Israel & most of the world... then break their covenant, declaring antichrist as god (abomination of desolation); 2/3 Israelis killed; battle of Armageddon; millennial reign- Rapture of the saints: catching away to escape all this. Tribulation not for Church- Chronology is not the point. We must be ready. Rapture is imminent, has no signs- Don’t get caught up with affairs of this world; live right and wait- Are you afraid to die? Does this make you uneasy?- Nobody knows when He will come for us- Lying, deception, unacceptable business tactics, hypocritical lives... you cannot come to church then curse an officer in the parking lot- Christians, be conscientious about the way we talk and act; there’s a sense of rebellion still in our souls- How long has it been since I’ve ... given to help others... had joy in my heart...

Scripture: Hebrews 3:12-14; Revelation 2; 3
Topic: Faithfulness
Notes:
- We must be vigilant after God- Story of godly women at funeral service: we need saints to tell of God’s faithfulness- Serving Jesus is a matter of overcoming; there is nothing greater than the grace that God has given us to overcome- Heaven is for overcomers- It makes no sense to try to win the world when our own church needs revival- We have no sense of urgency- I believe in rapture of the church before the tribulation, the time of God’s wrath- They hated Jesus and ought to hate us as well- Am I dragged down too often... or am I so full of the Word I’ve set my eyes on Jesus?

- Parable of the Sowers: everyone fits one of the scenarios- Protect your heart; it is your connection to God- In Hebrews, Jewish believers were reverting back to Judaism- Being a Christian is tough, warfare- Believe , confess, repent, turn away and live for Jesus; give earnest heed- Sin deceives the young... American Idol... everyone wants to be discovered... a trick from hell to destroy them- Sin deceives the old... feel too experienced to fall. You are never out of danger- Satan caused Eve to doubt what God said; don’t misunderstand God- Christians in adultery, homosexuality... think that what God meant is not the same as what they’re doing; loving money is idolatry; we deny unforgiveness- You can be living in sin and think it’s everybody but you- If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me

Scripture: Revelation 2:1-5
Topic: Repentance
Notes:
- We’re not going to heaven because we believe in Jesus, but because we follow Him- We’ve left our first love; the relationship is not what it was- It is backsliding when I don’t love Him with my whole heart, mind, soul, body, and strength- Repent and do the first works, the basics of Christianity- Some Christians are never satisfied... because they’re not satisfied with Jesus- Once you’ve had an experience with Jesus, nothing else satisfies- Give me more of Jesus... then you operate in the Spirit- When you have Jesus, you have everything- Must hunger for Jesus... I’ve had to pray my way back- You’re baptized into Christ once, but can be baptized in the Spirit over and over- Baseball, golf boring... my mind is on Jesus

Scripture: Luke 8:12-15; I Timothy 4:1-2; II Thessalonians 2:10; I Corinthians 6:9-10; Hebrews 10:26-27
Topic: Faithfullness
Notes:
- We have a lot of religion but little commitment to Jesus- Where do we stand with God? Salvation is bearing fruit every day- Sometimes I get scared when I read the Bible; we should be somewhat fearful- Parable of the sower: seed on rocky ground... those who believe for awhile...- Saved people keep, obey, learn and search the Word- Some depart because they start listening to deceiving spirits- People don’t want to be convicted; conviction is a gift from God- We fail to take the Bible seriously... become too familiar- This is about loving God, truth, righteousness; we must hate everything evil- Love the truth or eventually reject the truth- It is possible to have head knowledge with no heart relationship- We get caught up with the here and now rather than the there and then- David fell when he took his eyes off the Lord- Are you double-minded?- Parents are following their kids to church; maybe there’s no conviction “over there”- Stay before God and allow Him to convict or you’ll start tolerating sin- Adulterers, homosexuals, liars... in the pulpit; God hasn’t changed His mind about sin- If I willfully sin then there is no longer a sacrife

Scripture: Romans 5:20-21; 6:1-17; Titus 2:11-13; John 10:1-5; 27-29; Colossians 1:21-23
Topic: Obedience
Notes:
- There’s more to the grace of God than saying “I’m saved.”- Gospel preaching has been diluted- It’s not just calling on the name of the Lord, but pursuing after Him; Our lives must change; how you live bespeaks who you serve- Satan will have you misapply the scriptures, which leads to misunderstanding and eventually violating the scriptures- Grace leads us to deny ungodliness- We start looking for Jesus to come back which makes us watch how we’re living- There’s a frustration in young couples in the church, especially those with children… “Is this my life?” Satan plants the desire to be free…- In our society we watch too much trashy television; we start to want what they have- If you want it, the devil will help you get it- A sheep knows his master’s voice, will not follow a stranger- How do I know I’m saved? Know Jesus’ voice.- The person who is hearing and following… cannot be snatched out of His hand- If saved, then when you sin it breaks your heart, you run back to Him are forgiven- It’s not where you go to church, but how you hear and obey- We’re too comfortable with sin; get down to business or you’re his next victim
2011-01-16-1800 Pastor Loran Livingston is the speaker this evening January 16th, 2011 in the 6:00 service.
Scripture: Romans 5:1-5
Topic: Grace
Notes:
- If it hasn’t happened to you yet, it will... a dark time spiritually depleted and numb- Panic and fear will make you wander... fear is brought into your life by Satan- Before you get to that valley, you need to know what He said about His faithfulness- Others have already been there and will be there again- Know that He cannot lie and will never leave or forsake you- Because of Jesus, God treats me as though I’ve never sinned- I don’t like the sun to go down, dark places; we will all experience a sunset some time- Stand in the grace of God and glory in tribulation, building perseverance- There’s not much hope in the idea that I might not make it even after He saved me- The same Jesus that found me and saved me will keep me and take me home- I’m not hopeful if it’s up to me to make it- I’ve changed my mind about God but God will not change His (about Israel or me)

Topic: Grace
Notes:
- To young parents busy with children, etc... Feeling condemned, haven’t done enough.- To people who’ve been to the courtroom, doctor, fought with family... human beings with emotions indescribably bad- Jesus is as close to you now as He can possibly be; with you in all these moments- Jesus drove people from the temple, turned tables, moneychangers... lame and blind came to Him; 35 acres of holy ground held hostage by Jesus- False ideas: God loves good people, do religious things and God will respond, be faithful to God and He’ll be faithful to you- God does because He is holy, righteous and good- You can know church doctrine and go to hell; you first need a touch from Jesus- By grace we’ve been saved; nothing we’ve done deserves it- More people follow Christianity than follow Jesus- Prodigal son; older brother didn’t wander away but wasn’t any closer to his father- Perhaps repentance is a route rather than a requirement (for God’s love and blessing)- Story: garage floor epoxy, A & B. Many people operating with A (truth) and not B (grace). We need both truth and grace.

Scripture: John 2:5-11; Hosea 11:9; Psalm 22:5; I Peter 2:6, 8
Topic: Faith
Notes:
- Stories: ice cream cone/seatbelt, broken arm in golf cart, pants zipper...- There are no stars in the Kingdom... ordinary people that God touches in extraordinary ways to do things for His kingdom- The first miracle Jesus performed was to save someone social embarrassment- God created you to live a life that you could trust Him- Wedding ceremony was the highlight- Mary told them do what Jesus tells you; you don’t know what He’ll tell you to do- When I call on Him and obey, the results amaze me- God is not like a father, but is a father. Don’t measure God by earthly father...- We live in fear that God will one day snap and visit us in terror- Our natural everyday human emotions skew our view of the Father- God does not have to be appeased... just trust Him; He came to save not condemn- You look for relief but He wants to give you an answer- It’s not about keeping rules but about trusting- God’s not going to override His requirements because you’ve worshipped- Do what He tells you to do; you will not be ashamed at the results

2011-01-02-1800 Pastor Loran Livingston is the speaker this evening January 2nd, 2011 in the 6:00 service.
Scripture: Luke 22:31-34
Topic: Suffering
Notes:
- If you call Jesus Lord, you are a threat to Satan; he makes relentless attempt to destroy those in Christ but does not have free reign- Jesus did not deliver Peter, but said “I’ll be praying for you.”- You will be sifted; know scripture and know God is faithful so you don’t feel punished by God; it is a part of the faith- When Jesus comes into your life you get victory, righteousness, wisdom, redemption, and sanctification; but also the privilege to be persecuted, tested, sifted- God saves a soul for one reason: for His namesake- You are helpless and need God’s holy spirit- Don’t ever claim a gift; He gives gifts; we must be emptied of our spiritual confidence- Faith is not a tool to work things out, only to believe...

Notes:
- Mary and Joseph followed law; Jesus circumcised accordingly, etc.- Ana waited and served (as we all should be doing)... Simeon. - Live with anticipation, not only of rapture but of tragedy- Joseph told to take Mary and Jesus and flee Egypt to escape Herod- Sometimes God tells us to flee instead of fight; we rely on prayer and scripture to get through- Sick as a child, people prayed, lack of faith blamed when no results- We think power of prayer is given for our pleasure, purpose, escape- Sometimes God sends you to an inconvenient place to save your soul- God will not make you comfortable but will give you comfort- Have faith in what He said not in how you feel- Herod eventually died; one day your trouble will pass as well- You don’t know what will happen this year

Scripture: Jeremiah 31:29-30
Topic: Family
Notes:
- There’s no guarantee your child won’t fall to sin one day- Desperate to have a good family, we blame others... even demons- There is no spirit of gambling, alcohol, divorce, cancer, etc... not in scripture; there is a spirit of lying, infirmity and fear- Out of desperation for our family, we lean on something besides God’s holy word- Everyone comes into the world under a curse... sin- You will never conquer your flesh in your own power- If we rely on what Christ gave us on the cross and live in the resurrection power of Jesus we’ve been made overcomers by His blood- The genealogy of Jesus lists sinful people (Tamar who seduced Judah, etc.)- Every family is full of sin but by the blood of Jesus we are saved

- Book: “Jesus through Middle Eastern Eyes” by Kenneth Bailey- Who was Herod? A vile man, mixed up (Arab, Jew, Greek, Roman) but hated everyone not Roman- Who were the wise men? Wealthy from Arabia. Arab believers. Hundreds or more traveled together. East means “the rising”- Shepherds were poor Jews who came from fields to worship Jesus.- God had a plan... wise men watching for the signs... headed for Bethlehem when everything lined up... arrived first in Jerusalem- Herod gathered chief priests & scribes... sent wise men to find Jesus.- Sometimes we lose sight of the star... end up in the wrong place- People get more interested in church organization/politics than a relationship with Jesus

Constantine declared Christianity the state religion- Nobody knows when Jesus was born... doesn’t matter when we celebrate Jesus’ birthday; don’t just remember Him on Dec. 25th- The traditional view of Jesus birth is incorrect... Jesus wasn’t born in a stable. Middle Eastern culture hospitable, Joseph of royal lineage, “inn” is a guest room in a private home.- Nothing wrong with bows lights and trees... unless we only feel this way once a year... if it takes this for me to have compassion on the needy... then it has become tradition...- Christianity is doing what Jesus would every day of your life- Can’t live at the start of something (Jesus’ birth); gotta move on- Jesus isn’t lying in a manger but sitting on a throne; live the life...- Christmas is about God coming to draw us to Himself and about God in us driving us to where people are, living in their midst

Notes:
- Mary’s visit to Elizabeth; baby leapt; Mary’s spirit rejoiced- I believe in generational blessings but not generational curses- God chooses the lowly, unwanted and left out- Come to Him humble and He will meet us- In 1998 went to Israel and fell in love with Jewish people- God has a plan for His people; replacement theology false- We are favored and blessed if we are saved- If God calls you He won’t un-call you- The law was given to redeemed people; He calls then instructs- There will be no revival until we have the heart of God for Jews- We must love the Jew and Gentile, Israeli and Palestinian

Scripture: Matthew 5:9, 24; 6:14-15; Romans 14:19
Topic: Forgiveness
Notes:
- When we’re tired we become sensitive, protective, read into situations, make rash decisions, develop bad feelings towards people- The devil is looking for a way into a situation- The holiday season wears people out- The kingdom of God is about relationships- My attitude towards a fellow believer is my attitude towards Jesus...- Prayers fall to the ground when we don’t reconcile- Pursue the things that make for peace- Forgive others and you will be forgiven (by God)- Don’t live in sensitivity- The devil loves a divided church; there is power in unity

Then why am I complaining, blaming, angry?

Scripture:
Topic: Spiritual Warfare
Notes:
- Christians drift toward naivety- Trick or treating... decorating... foolishness that doesn’t glorify Jesus- Test the spirits- We think some things neutral but everything glorifies God or Satan- What is it you won’t do anymore?- Youth will find themselves with new freedoms...- Music, holidays... spirits behind everything- American Idol... you cannot be what the world wants you to be without selling your soul, convictions, values- Sell out to God; nothing can satisfy like Jesus

Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11
Topic: End Times
Notes:
- Jesus’ return is meant to comfort and encourage one another- Prophecy has been made academic, has become confusing and has divided people; what matters is that we are in the body of Christ- The Day of the Lord (God revealed) will come as a thief in the night- The Day of the Lord begins when Israel signs a peace treaty... it will be broken, people deceived.- We won’t be caught off guard because we won’t be here- The only real peace comes from knowing Jesus- Nothing in this world will improve your life; don’t need life improved but to be born again- If you don't know Jesus you’re deceived; there are saved and lost- If God delivered you, stop playing with fire- Sometimes I struggle with assurance of salvation... Ever feel the darkness closing in? It happens even to God’s children.- Depression can be physical... be careful how you try to help another- God is hanging on to you- There’s no hope in what will happen on the earth; Jesus is coming.

Topic: Worry
Notes:
- Paul wrote to comfort those who’d lost family members- This is the first mention of the rapture- Every parent worries about their children- The easiest way the devil discourages us is through family- Instead of worrying, worship God and He will work it out- The enemy creates confusion in your city of worship (Nehemiah) and weakens your faith and prayers- The more you talk to people about your troubles, the more confused you become; talk to God; don’t listen to too many advisors- Confusion + fear = weakness- Read, worship and give it to God- God removes our sin; we forget that we are weak and fall again- We remember our sins but God forgets them- When He saves you, He becomes your father- Story of job at Belk; father came to buy socks. God will show up to show you that you are on His mind

Scripture: I Thessalonians 4:9-12
Topic: Forgiveness
Notes:
- We are a melting pot of people; each seeing from his own perspective- You are out of God’s will when you live in unforgiveness- If I don’t forgive, I will not be forgiven- Don’t call yourself “Reverend” if you aren’t proclaiming the gospel- Unforgiveness affects everything else- Satan is looking for a crevice to plant something among us (choir members in competition, resentment, hostility trying to worship... leads to hypocrisy and spiritual duplicity. Prayers fall to the ground)- Don’t evaluate life by this moment or make a decision when tired- If you want the peace of God you must abound in love more & more- We are offensive people. It is human nature. Be smarter than the devil by living on our knees.- Display forgiveness as a testimony that God is living inside- You are never justified to hate or live in anger- Some people always in a fight because unforgiveness has taken root- Forgiveness will get your peace back... maybe not your money, position or reputation- Love never fails; forgiveness always wins

Topic: Sin
Notes:-
- We’ve lost our conscience- We call sexuality art; God didn’t make us to express all we feel- We belong to God; our lives should represent Him- Satan is using the media to strip morality from this world- The world wants us to applaud their sin; it’s in Christian homes- God’s will for you is to be sanctified, to have standards & conviction- Our education system is rotten, pulling young away from morality- Unbiblical sexual activity destroys the soul... steals our integrity- Fornication: Christians think activity other than intercourse okay- If you want God strong in your life, flee the appearance of evil- Two become one: a society of multiple partners tears lives to pieces- He’s coming back for a chaste, clean bride- There is someone waiting on you, a moment designed to destroy you- If I’m looking at Jesus I’m not looking at you- Marriages go through droughts... love & honor your spouse and when the feelings come back you’ll be glad you did- Love is action; love never fails

Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 3
Topic: Suffering
Notes:
- A pastor can only do what he’s called if his wife is called as well- Paul sent Timothy to encourage because he could not go himself- Trials are a part of the faith; troubles strengthen faith- Paul feared that the people would fail; struggled with doubt- Everyone’s faith has a gap (i.e. divine healing).- We don’t trust God to carry our burdens, take care of our problems- The more we interact with believers and hear the Word, the more the gaps are filled- People feel obligated to explain God; we can’t understand God- Don’t try to explain but proclaim Him- Trials weed out hypocrites, qualify us to help others, produce patience, make you live better and tell people about Jesus- A trial is not something happening to you but God working in you- Daniel and the fiery furnace... went in bound up, walked around inside liberated. Start talking to Jesus and fire loses its heat- When you listen to Jesus, it’s not a trial anymore but a triumph- God is with us in the midst of trial; do not sorrow... Suffering

Topic: Holy Living
Notes:
- Our hearts are prone to wander away from God- Too many things have an attraction to us, a power over us, that would not if we kept our eyes on Jesus; be filled with the Holy Spirit- Preachers who fell... none of us exempt- Don’t want to fail God, destroying family and losing my testimony- Satan catches us off guard; we need to realize what’s happening- All devil needs to trip you up is to create reasonable doubt- Cast down imaginations- The Word of God (truth) is our greatest weapon... will set you free- Men lie & deceive.- Spirit filled man should never have to go to a bar for relief/relaxation- So-called Christians are doing the same things as the world- Women will dress provocatively; even Christian women want to be attractive to someone- There will always be something there to hinder you; fight every day- There are things you can’t do and places you can’t go Holy Living

Do I act like I believe?- What will I do in these chains?- We would rather be delivered from than developed in this- Moab at ease, settled on his dregs (not poured from vessel to vessel)- We want to be left alone but need to poured out again and again until nothing is left but wine- Paul & Silas praised the Lord anyway; there are prisoners all around... the greatest impact you’ll have is when you lift Him up

- The resurrection of Lazarus as a picture of the salvation experience- Salvation immediately gives a new heart, mind, direction...- Salvation is a process completed as we interact with each other- Jesus comes to where we are, calls us to where He is, then turns us over to people- There is life behind the grave clothes... must be removed.- Layers are removed as we submit to the external work of God after He’s performed an internal miracle- We are tearing off people’s grave clothes as people tear off ours- We get to a place of confidence and faith by studying Jesus- We can’t be any holier in God’s eyes than at the moment we’re saved- The process is to get the outside to act like the inside- Story: a friend switched the lids on two puzzles... man looking at the wrong picture. Look at Jesus to what He’s done inside of you- Lazarus sat at the table where He could fellowship with Jesus- 7 things already happened to you in Christ: (Ephesians 1)

Notes:
- A strong Christian does not insist on his rights or flaunt freedom- Feel responsible for young or weak in the faith- People bicker over personal convictions- Things aren’t evil; people are evil and abuse things- Drugs, tobacco, alcohol, animals, dancing... NOT EVIL- To make disciples, it must be about Jesus- What does a denomination believe? Who Cares!? What does the Bible teach? Be a follower of Jesus- God understands our ignorance, immaturity, zeal- Music is cultural, generational- There is no wrong way to save a soul- Rapture & second coming... pre, mid, post... non-essentials.- There is one essential: to know Him. Jesus is the standard- Never let your convictions hamper evangelism... push someone away- Go to restaurants and build relationships... guns a tool of evangelism

Topic: Spiritual Warfare
Notes:
- Satan has been stripped of all his armor- We have been give authority to set the captives free- We're not fighting people; this is a battle between good and evil- Satan camouflages himself behind people ; there's an unseen force behind everything- Preachers, movements, ministries that target people... not the army of the Lord if operating in anger and disgust- We must operate in love; have a broken heart about people- For God to use us we must live a changed holy life- Offer self as a living sacrifice, be filled with Spirit of God, have faith- We don't know how prayer works be Jesus told us to pray- No situation is too hard for the Lord- He can but will he? He will do right an right on time.- God will help my faith; God is faithful.- It is our warfare; we are called to do battle

Work, involvement, cost; hope to hopeless, sight to blind, healing to broken hearted

We must tell people they are lost and need a savior- Demons dwell in unbelievers, enslave and influence them- When anything gets control of our lives other than the Holy Spirit it is demonic... if something does not draw us closer to God- Everything we do has a consequence- Demons found in spiritism, magic, sorcery; Ouija board, video games- A married man should go home to his family... help out- Sexual invasion of the home... country- We have victory through Christ; David ran towards Goliath

Notes:
- When Jesus first healed blind man he saw "men as trees."- How we see people indicates our spiritual maturity & understanding- When spiritual vision is impaired we forget what matters to Jesus- Do people look like prospects? Business opportunities?- We should have a broken heart for the lost; when we lose a sense of evangelism, people become the enemy.- We’ve taken up the cause of militance.- Sinners aren't the problem; sin is. People are victims of sin.- We need a second touch to clear out thinking and vision.- Don't need to go on a mission trip to reach people who are lost.- We're looking around, ready to fight, dwelling on what's wrong; we should be looking up.- Don't go back where you were after you've been touched.- Hang around negative people and your vision (faith) will dim- What you look for you will see... business, pornography, demons...- Look for Jesus and you will see Him at work.

- Relationship with Jesus was what parents told, pastor preached... not a miraculous transformation of the heart- Growth is not an event.- We go sermon to sermon without seeking God for growth ourselves- Surround yourself with people who'll grow with you and encourage- We have to be strengthened while working to accomplish more- What matters is that I have a personal relationship with Christ that no one can take from me- If you can't minister in your own home you’ll have no ministry outside the home- Practice what you know. Let God use your past experiences- Lays potato chip commercial "Can't eat just one." Can't just show up and get a blessing and leave, must wait and let God work- “You can't win if you don’t transform” (son with transformers)- Dig in, get dirty, roll your sleeves up and let God use you.- We must present ourselves to God, separate from the world, allow Him to transform our minds/hearts, demonstrate His love to others

Notes:- God made man and woman and told what they are to be- Man began worshipping the creation and were given over to lusts- You are only a strong man when you surrender to Jesus Christ- The first sin was when man stopped guarding the garden- God made men as leaders; gave them a job- God made men as mentors; to take others with them- Men are to be guardians- Companions. What good is it to accomplish if she doesn’t see it?- God weeps over man’s hard heart- When God indicates what is to be done, those indicating anything else are wrong- The benchmark of truth is the Word of God- Poor leaders confuse the standard of truth-what the world thinks with what God says- Your opinion should come from your character and that from the Word of God- Adonijah, Abiathar, Joab, Shimei- Disagree while showing respect- Man looks at outward appearance; God looks at the heart- Man's role was formed by God2010-06-20-0830 Dr. Randy Smith is the guest speaker this morning June 20th, 2010 in the 8:30 service.Scripture Ref: I Kings 1:12-53Topic: Stewardship

Topic: Faithfulness
Notes:- Wherever there is trouble the Lord is; your troubles not too big- Do not keep looking at the circumstances. “Whatever we ask...”- The driving desire of my life is to please God yet I fall short; it’s not my righteousness but His. Holy Spirit prays through me- You cannot be any closer to God than you are to people- It’s not impossible because he's in charge of every situation- He didn’t call us to understand but to have confidence in Him- God already has a resolution... already sees the end.- People looking to the future; the past is gone.- Your worrying is in vain and steals the Joy of the Lord from you- When you ask God and His glory is the reason and the benefit is for someone else, God has taken care of it- He just wants you to recognize, acknowledge and praise Him Faithfulness2010-05-30-1030 Pastor Loran Livingston is the speaker this morning May 30th, 2010 in the 10:30 service.

Media keeps us stirred, no integrity in politics- Jesus is coming again; until then things will deteriorate- Look up, your redemption draweth nigh- Struggle with the fatherhood of God- You do not have to live all to pieces under the pressure- Nothing temporary can destroy what God has done in you eternally- We grasp at straws, desperate to keep close what we love- Jesus is our helper; He runs to us in our time of need. Lord help me.- Sacrifice of praise. Last thing I want to do in time of trouble.2008-04-27-0830 Pastor Loran Livingston is the speaker this morning April 27th, 2008 in the 8:30 service.Scripture Ref: Hebrews 13:5-6
