Proverbs 11 Teaching our children to have Integrity What it is? It is honesty v. 1 The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles that one refuses to change (Cambridge Online Dictionary) Think of Joseph and Potiphar's wife Think of Daniel and his three friends in Daniel 1 And again in Daniel 3 when they wouldn't bow to the false god And again in Daniel 6 when Daniel prayed even though it meant death This was an old command reiterated by Solomon Deuteronomy 25:12-14 Proverbs 16:11 and 20:10 It was a sin addressed by Hosea in 12:7 We must teach our children to always be honest For us, this was a spanking matter Matthew Henry says “He is not an honest man that is not devout; he is not a godly man that is not honest.” Dishonest business dealings are offensive to God Nothing is more pleasing to God than fair and honest dealing It models who God is He will do right every single time . . . It is humility v. 2 Notice that it is the opposite of pride Nebuchanezzar was severely judged by God for his pride Herod was as well. Notice that it is blessed by God Humility leads us to wisdom It is uprightness v. 3 The word means correct; right; straight Psalm 25:21 Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. It is righteousness. v. 4-6 Why it matters? It guides us v. 3 It makes a difference in death v. 4 A good conscience makes the end of ones life easier It leads us to righteousness It counsels us It makes us gracious It makes us generous It brings life v. 30 It bypasses judgment v. 32 How do you get it? You train it Proverbs 20:11 A child either has it or doesn't Verse 5 When they get it and mature - it directs their way Perfect = complete or mature or whole You pursue it We often have opportunity to pursue integrity . . . You live it It shows up in how we treat people In how we run our business

Message from Philip Le Feuvre on 19/02/2023
St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Christian Church Lexington, Ma Podcast
Humility is one of the vital ingredients of life. Our Lord talked of humility and showed it by His willingness to take on our flesh, our sins in order to give us the opportunity of salvation. On this Sunday in which we hear about the Publican and Pharisee our focus is directed on two individuals who went to the temple to pray. Who are you like?
There is one virtue we all need for the ongoing healing of our soul and the building up of others-lifting people's hearts to God - HUMILITY! "He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, ‘Lord, are you going to wash my feet?'... ‘No,' said Peter, ‘you shall never wash my feet.' Jesus answered, ‘Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.' ‘Then, Lord,' Simon Peter replied, ‘not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!'" - John 13:6, 8-9 If you would like to partner with us, please visit: https://myloh.church/give

Sermon Recording Sermon OutlineSpeaker: Rev. Charles DrewSermon Series: Wisdom from God on How to Engage PoliticallyMatthew 5:1-12, 6:9-13, 22:34-40 (ESV)5:1 Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down, his disciples came to him.2 And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying:3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.5 “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.10 “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.11 “Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. 12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.6:9 Pray then like this:“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. 10 Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread, 12 and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.22:34 But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. 36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”Sermon OutlineI) We may not disengage politically.“Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” II) Hungering and thirsting for righteousnessA) Ravenous for it.B) What is righteousness? Personal and cosmic meanings “Upstream politics” and “downstream politics” III) How will this “upstream” hunger and thirst show up in our “downstream” public lives?A) Longing to be right with God…Humility (“poor in spirit”).Patience and trust We hunger because the banquet is still ahead. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.Care about methods.Blessed are the poor in spirt… the meek… and the peace-makers. B) Longing to be right with people…Treating them with respect3D creatures made in God's image with stories 11 "Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Wanting for them what we want for ourselves.You shall love your neighbor as you love yourself. C) Injecting hope into public life by celebrating the ‘good stuff' Jesus speaks of blessing 9 times! Good News Prayer of ConfessionOur great Redeemer, your love for our wayward world is beyond understanding or imitation. You mourn our sins; we indulge them. You hunger and thirst for righteousness; we covet. You surrendered your rights and comforts; we demand them. You waited patiently for victory and vindication; we want them now. You always thought of your neighbors and gave your life for them; we often ignore our neighbors' needs. You died to make peace; we sow discord. You honored your enemies; we diminish even our friends. Your heart was pure; our motives are always mixed. And at the end of your lovely life, you offered it to the Father in place of ours, bearing our sins and cruelties into outer darkness so that you could carry us safely home. Make us more like you, dear Lord, in our angry times. Amen.Questions for ReflectionWhat clues does the following statement by C. S. Lewis give us for addressing the political divisiveness in the church? “It is at the church's center, where her truest children dwell, that each communion (i.e., denomination) is really closest to every other in spirit, if not in doctrine. And this suggests that at the center of each there is a something, or a Someone, who against all divergences of belief, all differences of temperament, all memories of mutual persecution [and all political contentions], speaks with the same voice.” (From Mere Christianity, Preface)The Beatitudes richly describe “upstream politics” –the attitudes and perspectives we should bring to public life, (“downstream politics” by contrast deals with particular issues). To be poor in spirit is to be humble and is an “upstream” quality. How teachable are you when it comes to political matters?Jesus was meek, which means that his power was constrained by patient trusting obedience. He was faithful, but he never sought to force his Father's hand, nor to change his time-table. If we follow Jesus, we will be diligent in what is right, but at peace about timing and outcomes: we will not have to win an argument or an election right now; nor will we grow disheartened, bitter, or afraid when the results of our efforts are forestalled. How would a close friend grade you on meekness? Reflect on the following statement: “The people who disagree with us over politics are not the enemies of God—nor are they sub-human—nor are they dismissible by tweet. They are not the 2D incarnations of their voting records. They are 3D creatures made in God's image with stories that have shaped them and that we need in love to know and understand. This is true even if they hate us for our efforts to deal honestly with them.” How might you do a better job approaching those who disagree with you politically? Jesus commands us to love our neighbors as we love ourselves. If, for example, we want the first amendment freedom to express our faith in public life, we will want this for our Muslim, atheist, Republican, and Democrat neighbor as well. Hos might you do a better job at this? Is there a friend or relative whose politics you can't stand who just did something decent? Honor them for it. Thank Jesus for faithfully living out the Beatitudes and offering his lovely life in substitution for ours to bring us safely home to the Father.

We are full of anxieties that present themselves in worry and anger. What is the remedy for a child of God? Humility and a kingdom mindset. God cares for us!
Christian faith has been declining for decades, but its influence and appeal has fallen remarkably in recent years. Indeed, it appears that the faithful are simply disappearing. The central, undeniable truth about modern Christianity is that it has turned decisively from away from a Biblical, God-centered worldview, and in its place has constructed an anthropocentric form of Christian humanism that prioritizes human suffering, human satisfaction, and human dignity. In this worldview man is given the first place in reality. In this episode, Jason and Dr. Smith discuss this anthropocentric turn in Christianity and specifically how the creator/creature relationship can serve as fundamental to a Catholic worldview. - Anthropocentricism - Creator-creature relationship - The image of God as distinct from God - Divine justice - The reality of 'Man as a sinner' in relationship to the perfection of God - Humility and the virtue of religion - Creator/creature relationship in evangelization
If we want to know God and walk with Him, we should put ourselves low and be contrite in spirit before Him.
In this sermon, Ps Eric speaks about components of spiritual strength and emphasises on the following components: Weakness,Obedience,Knowledge of God and Humility
Becoming Beautiful To God: Humility - Powerful Living From Peter #7 - Dallas McKinley by RIVER CENTER CHURCH
1 Peter 05—The elders are to feed the flock of God—Humility and godly graces lead to perfection.
In Christ, we find our value as citizens of the Kingdom of God. We need not carry the burden of pride or artificiality, feeble attempts to give ourselves more value. Humility comes a healthy understanding of our place in the Kingdom. In understanding our own value, we can ascribe worth to others.
