There are two ways to respond to Jesus: cynical questioning or willing obedience. This evil generation refuses to repent and believe, and faces a fearful future. Those who do the will of the Father, by contrast, are welcomed into the family. How will you respond? Do you recognize the blessing and privilege of being part of the family of God?

1 John 4:19-21 Jesus commands that his people love one another as God has loved them. We follow the example of Jesus, showing self-sacrificial love to those around us in the church as a compelling, visible witness to the watching world of what God’s love is like.
How we treat one another reflects how Jesus has treated us.

Description: Every family has culture and tradition — and the family of God is no different. From the very beginning, God's heart has been to create a family that multiplies, flourishes, and reflects His glory.In this message, Pastor Timothy walks us through Genesis 1–11, showing how God is the fountain of family, how sin breaks families apart, and how Jesus restores us into God's new family through the gospel. From creation to Cain and Abel, from Babel to Pentecost, we discover that the Church is meant to be an irresistible family and an unstoppable force for God's kingdom.

Unity Without Compromise with Dr. Steven LaTulippe – America faces a crisis of spiritual immaturity, as many in the church remain infants in faith. I explore how a lack of biblical understanding, denominational division, and compromised values threaten both the church and the nation. The true remedy lies in genuine discipleship, fearless faith, and a return to the unadulterated Word of God...

It was 1863. Edwin stood on a railroad platform in Jersey City. He watched as a young man was forced by crowds against a train car. The man dangerously fell into the crevice between the train and the platform. The train started to move. Edwin reached down and, at the last minute, pulled the man to safety. The saved man was Robert Todd Lincoln, son of President Abraham Lincoln. Robert later wrote that his rescuer’s “face was of course well known to me,” because Edwin Booth was a famous actor. In fact, he was the brother of another actor—John Wilkes Booth—who would assassinate the president two years later. This historical oddity illustrates a reality for us. We don’t choose the family we’re born into. Perhaps our siblings or parents made wrong choices. Maybe we’re the ones who’ve made a mess of everything. But the Bible tells of God’s family plan: “those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God” (Romans 8:14). As His children, “we are [his] heirs” (v. 17). Amazingly, we’re invited to call him “Abba, Father” (v. 15). We may long wrestle with the dysfunctions of our earthly family. But we can take comfort that God has changed our spiritual heritage. He adopts us into His family. Most precious of all—He invites us to call him our Father.

Pastor Sam Rainer preaches a verse-by-verse sermon series through the entire book of Romans. This sermon covers chapter four. Romans 4 describes the Old Testament evidence of justification by faith, specifically through the life of Abraham. Salvation in the Old Testament is the same as in the New Testament, which is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone.
In this sermon on Romans 14:13-15:7, Pastor Jared Richard addresses how Christians should handle differences of opinion on disputable matters. He explains that while mature believers understand their freedoms in Christ, they have a spiritual obligation to restrain those freedoms when they might cause spiritual harm to weaker believers. Using examples like Charles Spurgeon giving up cigars when he realized his public example might lead others into sin, Pastor Richard emphasizes that being together in faith is more important than being isolated in individual freedom. The pastor reminds us that "the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit" (Romans 14:17). Our ultimate joy is found not in our freedoms but in Christ himself, who modeled this sacrificial love by giving up heaven's glory to save us. The goal is church unity where together we "may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ" (Romans 15:6). WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Join us as we continue in our summer series, Letters to the church, journeying through the Lectionary Epistle readings, along the way we will journey through Galatians, Colossians, Hebrews and a brief stop in Philemon.
Pastor Jared Richard's sermon on Romans 14:1-13a examines how the church can maintain unity despite differences in matters of conscience. Drawing from Paul's letter to the Romans, he identifies the problem of division between "weak" and "strong" believers over issues like food restrictions and special days. This division threatens both the church's witness and mission. Pastor Jared explains that the solution is found in three Gospel demands: accepting those whom God has accepted in Christ, individually living under the lordship of Christ, and anticipating God's perfect judgment. He introduces the concept of "theological triage," distinguishing between essential Christian beliefs (dogma), denominational differences (doctrine), and personal convictions (disputable matters). The sermon concludes with a powerful reminder that while we don't have to agree on everything, we must welcome one another just as God has welcomed us in Christ, keeping the main things central while giving freedom in matters of conscience.

Romans 16:1-23
As a Christian, you are part of God's royal family. You are spiritual aristocracy. “Be renewed in the spirit of your mind and put on the new self, which is in the likeness of God, has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth” (Eph 4:24). You have an honor code that includes impersonal love for all and reflecting the thinking of Jesus Christ. “You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of His [the Lord Jesus Christ] who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light” (1 Pet 2:9). Royal family members who progress to spiritual maturity have an invisible impact on their nation and families. Download Transcript: https://rhem.pub/royal-family-419b8f
