Verses about God's love, like John 3:16, tend to get repeated and memorized. They stir up warm, sentimental feelings and make us feel good about ourselves.

Have you ever wondered why so many movies, books, and songs are focused on romance? It's because every one of us, in the deepest corners of our hearts, longs to feel loved and cherished. But if we're honest with ourselves, we also know that we don't deserve that kind of unconditional love.

Sow sparingly, reap sparingly. Sow generously, reap generously!
On the night of the Last Supper with His disciples, Jesus' last message was a clarion call to discover what a life of abundant fruitfulness really consists of. But it wasn't the call the disciples were expecting. And it may not be the call you are expecting either. But Jesus' words were a final message to help the disciples of that time and this to live lives that matter, lives of abounding fruitfulness for God's Kingdom.

This world will tell you that you must climb the social ladder and gain popularity. This is so backward from who the Bible says you must be! Today, Pastor Bill says you can't control what other people do, but you must control your thoughts and hate covetousness. According to scripture, those who hate covetousness will have abundant lives! Even if everyone around you is seeking more, ask yourself, “Do I need more, or am I okay where I'm at?” Covetousness will always lead you down a path of discontentment.
God's promises will be fulfilled upon Jesus' return. Jesus ministry on earth was a time of conflict ending in his death at the hands of sinners. His death didn’t end his messianic mission though. He has more to do in the fulfillment of all God’s promises to Israel. Jesus is returning to fulfill all of those promises.

Sunday afternoon message from the pulpit of Shawano Baptist Church
1 Corinthians 15:50-58
Jesus' resurrection is the assurance of our reconciliation with God. In these troubled times with so much uncertainty in the world and our lives, Christians should know that all of this is due to sin. Our sin is disobedience and rebellion against the Holy God that created everything. Everyone needs to reconcile with God. Some people have reconciliation through Jesus' sacrifice on… The post Abounding in Resurrection Certainty, Part 1 | The Testimony of Divine Justice appeared first on Pillar of Truth Radio.

Join Pastor Derek Neider in this inspiring episode of The Daily Devotional as he kicks off a powerful new series on the book of Romans. In today's devotional, Derek introduces us to one of the most theologically rich books of the Bible, unpacking the significance of the apostle Paul's words and the gospel's eternal message.In this first chapter, Derek dives deep into Paul's self-description as a servant of Christ and a chosen messenger of God's good news. Through thoughtful reflections, Derek encourages us to embrace our calling to serve Christ wholeheartedly and live out our faith with purpose and surrender.Tune in for insightful teachings, practical application, and a fresh perspective on what it means to live as servants of the gospel. This is just the beginning—there's so much more to come as we journey through Romans together!Thank you for listening! Here are some ways to learn more and stay connected!New to faith?

We are located at 7175 W. Oquendo Road, Las Vegas, NV 89113. Our gathering times are 9am & 11am Sundays and 6:30pm Thursdays.
Everyone can hurt someone at any given moment. Romans says, “all have fallen short of the glory of God.” This means we've all sinned and will continue to sin without the blood of Christ. Today, Pastor Bill says if we confess our sins to others, we'll have abundant life through the Father. Is there someone whom you've wronged and haven't apologized to? Your response shouldn't be to hide in guilt and shame. You should go to them and right what you did wrong by apologizing and asking for forgiveness.
Away From the Presence Jonah 1:1-16 Message Slides For the bulletin in PDF form, click here. God is Present EverywhereWe Forget to Live Like God is Present EverywhereGod is Gracious and Merciful, Slow to Anger, and Abounding in Steadfast LoveDiscussion Questions1. The main lesson we learn is that God is present everywhere. Yet there are some places we would probably prefer not to go (even if God is with us). Where would you least/most want to be if you were alone: in the ocean, on a mountain, or in space? Any other places?2. Jonah tries to flee from the presence of the Lord (1:2-3), but he is unable because God is present everywhere. What are some indications in the book that reveal God is present everywhere?3. Do you have any challenges with thinking about God being present everywhere? Is this a difficult or a relatively simple concept for you? Explain.4. Have someone read Psalm 139:7-10. This passage talks about God being present everywhere and how this should encourage us. Why should we be encouraged by the idea that God is present everywhere? Have you ever been especially encouraged by this truth?5. The idea that God is present everywhere can also be humbling. Explain why. Have you ever been convicted by the thought that God is present everywhere and knows everything we do and everything we think?6. Explain how Jonah can have correct thinking in 1:9 that God is present everywhere and yet he tries to flee from God's presence. How can his thinking and living be inconsistent? What are some ways your thinking and living can be inconsistent?7. The story is ultimately about God's grace shown to Nineveh but also shown to Jonah. What are some ways we see God's grace toward Jonah in this story? What are some lessons we might apply to our lives from this?8. Jesus thinks of the story of Jonah as pointing to Him when he says, “something greater than Jonah is here” (Matt 12:41). What are some examples of how Jesus succeeds where Jonah fails? How is Jesus greater than Jonah? Why should this encourage us today?Mission Highlight - Pray for the Unreached: The Montgomery Family On Friday, March 28th, Southeast Asia experienced an earthquake of 7.7 magnitude. The Montgomery family is safe and experienced no damage, though they did feel it. Justin, Angela, Zeke, and Taos ask that we join them in praying for those effected by the earthquake.

YouTube & Podbean DESCRIPTION: Paul uses a “how much more” logic to show us how much better the free gift of righteousness is than the sin that necessitated it. We have a better Man than ourselves. We are not saved by our understanding of the law or our ability to keep it, but by Christ's act of obedience at the cross. In Christ we have a better work than Adam's. It is not our work of righteousness, or Adam's work of sin, that defines us. It is Christ's work alone that defines the believer in Jesus. We have a better gift. The gift of grace given to us in Christ's righteous obedience reaps for us an eternal reward, impacting our future forever! Salvation has a better scope than we originally realized. It is for every tribe, tongue and nation on the earth—everyone who believes in Christ. Embrace the scope of this gift by offering it to those outside the church doors (as well as those inside). ------- Please note that at about 5:20 in the video, Kristin accidentally misspeaks, saying that some liberal scholars suggest that Paul was a mythical figure. She intended to follow up her previous correct statement that “Paul regards Adam as a historical person,” with the contrast of some liberal scholars who suggest that *Adam* was a mythical figure.

It is commitment Sunday at Grace Community Bible Church. The church is refreshing and renewing the commitments they made a year ago, financial commitments that are going towards 27 acres of property the church purchased to be the future home of the church. In this sermon Tony answers the question, “why should I commit and what keeps me motivated to commit?”

Jonah 3:1-5 ESV Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah the second time, saying, “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it the message that I tell you.” So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, three days' journey in breadth. Jonah began to go into the city, going a day's journey. And he called out, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” And the people of Nineveh believed God. They called for a fast and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least of them.

We are nearing the end of a verse by verse journey through one of the greatest books in the bible - Paul's letter to the Romans. Challenging is an understatement when it comes to the words we read here. Romans has been described as the Magna Carta of the Christian faith.

Our passages today are from: Galations 5:22-23 and John 15:17-24We're delving into the topic of love today - the first fruit listed in Galatians 5.

Today's Passage: Genesis 22:9-14When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built the altar there and laid the wood in order and bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son. But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” He said, “Do not lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.” And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son. So Abraham called the name of that place, “The Lord will provide”; as it is said to this day, “On the mount of the Lord it shall be provided.” Today's Prayer: Father God, Jehovah Jireh – we recognize the ways seen and unseen that you have provided for us and our brothers and sisters in Christ throughout all of time. You are always on time. And even though it doesn't feel like that sometimes, we believe it ultimately to be true. Remind us again, in this advent season of waiting and longing for you, that your heart is one of outpouring and generosity. Abounding in love and blessings to those of us that call on you. Jesus, we praise you, for being the provision we needed. At just the right time, while we were powerless in our sin, you became our sacrifice and made a way for us to come home to God. How can we ever stop thanking you? We celebrate your coming and your victory this Advent season. And we eagerly await to be reunited with you. Holy Spirit, through your power, would you remind us when we forget that Jehovah Jireh is our God. Call to mind the ways and times he has proven himself true to his character. And help our hearts to grow in wisdom and trust as we wait and hope for Christ's return. Amen.For more information about this Advent season, visit our Christmas at Fellowship page. There you can find more resources, as well as information about pursuing Christ and celebrating him this season with our church.
Do artists get exceedingly angry when their art is chosen for display at the Met? No! So why would Jonah get exceedingly angry when, in response to his preaching, the Ninevites actually turn away from violence and turn to the living God? The answer has to do with the love of God. The incredible collapse of Jonah is because he misunderstands God's love. And the collapses in our lives may very well have the same roots. So let's look now at how God's love is a patient love. Let's ask two questions: 1) why is God's patient love not more operative and powerful in our lives? and 2) how can God's patient love be more operative and powerful in our lives? This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on September 2, 1990. Series: Jonah. Scripture: Jonah 4:1-10.
