The inward corruption of mankind is manifested outwardly, and organized religion does nothing to transform it.
The law of God serves as the standard by which believers are conformed to Christ. The second commandment introduces what we call the Regulative Principle of Worship, which teaches that only elements explicitly commanded by God should be included in worship.We can distinguish between two regulative principles:First, the Regulative Principle for Worship means that we include in worship only what God explicitly commands.Second, the Regulative Principle for Life, which means that in matters of daily life, we are free to do anything not explicitly forbidden, an expression of Christian liberty. We will explore this more fully when we address Christian liberty directly, but in essence, it is the freedom to discern and pursue what is pleasing to the Lord.In terms of the regulative principle, we see God's word as central. The reason is that Scripture is not like any other book. We believe that Scripture is inspired by God and carried by the Spirit, and is foundational for the life of the church. The preaching of the gospel is not a one-time message but an ongoing means of grace through which God nourishes and strengthens faith. We cannot predict exactly how or when the Spirit will work through this means, but we trust in God's promise to use it effectively.The Lord commands the preaching of the Gospel for spiritual growth, in contrast to the temptation to rely on human methods. The preaching of the Gospel is not a one and doe message. The reason is because Scripture is profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, and training in righteousness, equipping believers to grow in the mystery of Godliness (1 Timothy 3:16). The lively preaching of the Word, meaning Spirit-empowered rather than merely animated or human ingenuity, is God's chosen instrument for building faith, regardless of the preacher's personality or holiness. Ideally, we want a preacher who believes the gospel, seeks to live for Christ, and desires to see Christ glorified.Worship is ultimately about honoring the Lord, not ourselves. God works through His appointed ministers, and our joy should be in communion with Him as he communes with us, especially in worship.
In this episode, from the first part of his plenary address at the 2025 Priscilla & Aquila Centre annual conference held on Monday 3 February 2025, Paul Grimmond, Head of the Ministry Department at Moore College, unpacks Titus chapter 2 and the commands given to specific groups of people—older men, older women, younger women, younger men, and so on.Paul reminds us that the way we read the Bible is often influenced by our personal context and our view of Scripture, and encourages us to think hard and carefully about the parts we hold close, the parts we hold at a distance, and why we are actually doing that.(Please note: Part 2 of Paul Grimmond's talk will be published on this podcast in July. If you would like to listen to it before then, head to the Priscilla & Aquila website.)For more audio resources, visit the Moore College website.

Send us a textIt's interesting that in our culture men and fathers are often depicted by some as inept and incompetent. Not so Biblically. God made man by Divine design. He charges fathers to pass along Godliness through their families. Today we celebrate fathers who desire to follow Jesus' standards of true manliness.
An honorable spiritual leader in Israel questions the point of being godly when the wicked have such an easy life. However, his story concludes with fervent and joyful intimacy with God. It's a powerful testimony for believers today.

In this episode, Jeremy sits down with Will—youth pastor at Ebenezer Church in Saskatoon—for a powerful conversation about how ancient spiritual disciplines are reshaping his youth ministry. This is the kickoff to a special series featuring youth workers and students whose lives have been changed by practicing the way of Jesus.Will shares how challenges early in his ministry led him to rethink how he was engaging with spiritual formation practices. Now, years later, his youth ministry is thriving—not because of hype, but because students are being trained to follow Jesus for life through habits like Sabbath, fasting, prayer, and Scripture engagement.If you've ever wondered how to help your students truly grow, not just attend, this conversation is a must-listen.Learn more about Practicing the Way at their website: practicingtheway.orgHave a question or want to dig deeper?

Often, Christians live as though we do not have the ability or power to overcome sin in our lives or the evil in this world. They live with anxiety, frustration, and hopelessness. However, this is not the reality. God has given us everything we need for life and Godliness. He has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places. And it is all for His glory. Pastor Dave explored this reality with us as we began our study in Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians.
Message from Jarrett Stephens on June 15, 2025
No Christian really needs to be convinced that Godliness is the goal. God's plan is that we would be conformed into the image of Jesus. Jesus told us that it is enough to be like the master. The Psalmist helps us to know what godliness looks like not only in our our own life, but also in the life of the ones who will influence us. DNA Questions - Psalm 86Discover:How can the Psalmist say that he is "poor and needy"?What are the implications of the fact that the Psalmist calls upon the Lord in the day of his trouble?Do you honestly believe that God is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness? Why or why not? Nurture:Do you tend to see yourself in light of who God is or in light of those around you? Why does that matter?Are you quick to notice when the Lord gladdens your soul? Why or why not?Is it easy or difficult for you to ask God for a sign of His favor upon you? Why or why not? Act:Every time you pray this week, ask the Lord to gladden your soul and see what happens. Commit to write down such instances no matter how little or big.Every time you pray this week, thank the Lord for all the ways you know He has delivered you AND for all the ways in which you are unaware. Take note of instances that you notice no matter how little or big.
Continuing with our series “UNSTOPPABLE Church” today, Pastor Jodi teaches on Unstoppable Power. Violence. Destruction. Division. Anger. These words describe the current condition in our world. We are in a battle. However, the Lord has provided for us everything we need for life and Godliness by giving us His Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit's power enables us to do exceedingly, abundantly more than all we could imagine or think as we engage our broken world and bring the Good news of the resurrection of Jesus.Holy Sprits Power Referenced in:Acts 1:8, 2:22, 3:12, 4:7, 4:33, 6:8, 8:10, 8:13, 10:38, 19:11Key Scriptures:2 Cor 10:3-5, Acts 1:8, 2:1-4, 2:17-18, 3:12, 4:7, 4:33, Rom 8:11

Have you ever felt stuck in a cycle of spiritual déjà vu — repeating the same mistakes you promised you'd never make again? In this message, we see a powerful contrast in 1 Samuel 26: Saul in a cycle of sin and David choosing to grow in godliness. Our prayer for you is that you experience the freedom and victory that come from living a life fully surrendered to the Lord.

"His Body" PArt 2 by Pastor Alvin Asiamah
In this sermon, Jim Osman explains how believers have already been given everything for holiness through Christ's power, person, and promises. Grounded in 2 Peter 1:2-4, Osman emphasizes that Christians are fully equipped to live obedient, godly lives. By highlighting divine sufficiency, he dismantles modern spiritual gimmicks that claim to offer more. Everything for holiness comes from knowing Christ and embracing what God has already provided. ★ Support this podcast ★
