Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.   Wasn't it God who told me this?   ***   * Isaiah 54   17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of ME, saith the LORD.   My righteousness is of God because it was God who showed me to do this and to say this.   ***   * Romans 12   2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.   In each of the above scripture, there are things for us to do and to keep doing!   ***   Believe in the Holy Spirit leading us:   * John 14   Jesus says:   26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.   * John 16   13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.   * I Corinthians 2   9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.   10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.   11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.   12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.   13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.   ***   These scriptures are the foundations upon which I built my life.   And there are many other scriptures also which I added through the trials of this present life as the Holy Spirit brought those scriptures to my attention.   As long as we live on this earth, God brings us The Word to show us what to do and to encourage us in HIS way.   * Isaiah 26   3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he trusteth in Thee.   4 Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:

“Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.”‭‭I Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭12‬ ‭NKJV‬‬You are who God has made you to be, don't look at what people say or are saying about you!!

(This podcast was previously published on February 17, 2021)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   Unless the truth is revealed to us by God, we know nothing.   For centuries people in church groups have "speculated" about antichrist.  But only when God shows us something do we have truth that does not fail.   God began speaking to me about antichrist in 1982.  God used specific scriptures to teach me by HIS Holy Spirit.   II Thessalonians 2:3-4  Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;   4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.   God said to me:   "The falling away are not people leaving the church groups.  The falling away are the churches leaving specific scriptures ... and when that happens, antichrist moves into that church group."   * Antichrist is a spirit that operates inside the church group through ministers and congregations ...  so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.   In the NASB, we see the following:   6-8  And you know what restrains him now, so that he will be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is removed. 8 Then that lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will eliminate with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming;   (God had called the word "restraint" to my mind in approximately 2017.  I found this scripture in II Thessalonians 2:6  NASB.)   I said to God:  "What restrains him?"   The Holy Spirit said to me:  "The scriptures restrain antichrist and when portion of scriptures are removed, the door opens for antichrist to come into the church group."   I saw immediately:  Jesus is "The Word".  When Jesus, The Word, the holy scriptures are removed in part from the church group, the restraint holding antichrist back is removed and antichrist moves into that church group.   Antichrist tried to move into the churches during the day of the apostle John, but when that church held fast to doctrines of Christ, antichrist left that church group.   I John 2:18-19   Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.   (Not just one antichrist but many antichrists.)   19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.   The terrible fate for those persons in churches who cast aside portions of scripture:   II Thessalonians 2:10-12   And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.   11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:   12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.   *****   Antichrist was already sitting among the elders in the church at Ephesus when Paul warned them as follows:   Acts 20   17 And from Miletus he (Paul) sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.   18 And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons,   19 Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:   20 And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house,   21 Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.   22 And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:   23 Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.   24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.   25 And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.   26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.   27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.   28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which HE hath purchased with HIS own blood.   29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.   30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.   The following scripture also shows how concerned Paul was about false doctrines moving into the churches:   (Paul says to Timothy)   I Timothy 1:3   As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,   I Timothy 6:3   If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;   II Timothy 3:16  All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:   Romans 16:17  Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.   They had no New Testament Bibles at the time Paul spoke to the church of Romans but Paul had personally taught them the doctrine of Christ and Paul is warning them to follow that doctrine which they had been taught by him and to avoid the people who went in an opposite way ... opposite to the doctrine of Christ is antichrist.   II Timothy 4:3   For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;   Titus 1:9  (Concerning those appointed as elders in the church)  Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.   (Antichrist was just waiting to rise up speaking perverse doctrines in those churches of Paul's day and he warned them to continue in the "sound doctrine" which he, Paul, had taught them.)   I Timothy 4:16  (Paul speaking to Timothy)    Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.   (Paul had taught them the doctrines of Christ which appear for us later in the New Testament Bible.)   II Timothy 4:2   Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.   Paul speaking to the church:   I Corinthians 4:17  For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.   (No New Testament Bibles at that time.)   Paul speaks concerning what they were to do when they gathered as the church:   I Corinthians 14:26  How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.   I Timothy 4:6  If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.   (Timothy learned doctrine from Paul.)   II Timothy 2:2  And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.   And the Holy Spirit teaches each of us and that doctrine will be in agreement with the doctrine which Paul learned from the Holy Spirit of God and taught to the church.   I John 2:27  But the anointing which ye have received of HIM abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in HIM.   ***   And Paul said to the church of the Galatians:   Galatians 1   6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from Him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:   7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.   (We see antichrist was already working among this church group to bring them another doctrine.)   8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.   9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.   10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.   11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.   12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.  

I Timothy 4

Summary: As we return to our pre-Christmas study of I Timothy, we come to chapter three, where Paul lays out the qualifications to serve as an elder in the church. In doing so, he gives us a portrait of not only the character required for spiritual leadership, but of leadership that even the secular world acknowledges attracts followers.   For Further Prayerful Thought:How does Paul's insistence that fulfilling a spiritual leadership position is a “noble task” affect your perspective about such positions?How can we better remember that fulfilling the leadership positions assigned to us by Jesus with excellence brings honor to Him?Which of the six virtues most stood out to you 1) above reproach, 2) a one-woman man, 3) sober-minded, 4) self-controlled, 5) exhibiting an ordered life, 6) demonstrating love for the outsider.Which of the above six do you most need to focus upon building? For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast: (Click link and scroll down to bottom left)

Today, Pastor Nate looks at I Timothy 6, and Matthew 6 to truly learn more about our heart and our money. God knew something about ourself when he wrote about money and giving over 2200x in scripture. Apparently he knew this would be a touchy issue for all of us!  Grab your pen (or your electronic device notes app), open your heart, and be willing to hear some truths about our money and giving that we all need to hear. 

Today we wrap us Paul's letter to the Philippians.  One thing that stands out in Paul's mind is that God offers what we need most in life.  In fact, with Christmas that is exactly what God gives to us.  God truly come to us in order that our needs would be met!  It was because of this that Paul was able to display a thankful spirit in the most difficult times of his life!  When you know that God's promise is there to meet your greatest needs, you also will discover a most thankful spirit in you!  Read  Philippians 4:14-20; I Timothy 6:18-19; Matthew 6:25-33; 2 Corinthians 9:6-8; I John 5:14-15

= A New Testament Pastor is a Shepherd (points to his task)= A New Testament Pastor is an Overseer (points to his authority)= A New Testament Pastor is an Elder (points to his maturity) = Hebrews 13:7; 17 - congregation to pastor and pastor to congregation. I. Intensity & Intentionality Required - 1. Flee - Run from the wrong things 2. Pursue - Run to the right things 3. Fight the good fight (I Tim 6:11-12) 4. PO/PO - Ephesians 4 5. Flee - James 4:7 • We run away from sin (sanctification), but Satan runs away from you (submission) II. The Shepherds as Bond-Servants: 1. “Must not be” - “quarrelsome.” • I Timothy 2:8; 3:3; 6:4 • Titus 3:2; Titus 3:9 • II Timothy 2:14; 2:23; 2:24 2. “Must be” - Serving & Discerning • Kind to everyone - (leads to repentance - Romans 2:4) • Able to teach - unique word here and I Timothy 3:2. Ezra 7:10, The hand of the Lord is upon him because He SET HIS HEART to (3): Rigorous study; Regular obedience; Robust teaching. • Not resentful - (patient when wronged). Many commentators noted that this is one of the most difficult challenges of a pastor. What is the key to being faithful to this verse? Making sure ministry is about His Name; His Word; His Will. It's not about us. • Correcting opponents w/ gentleness - (correcting carefully) - Look to Joseph of Genesis and Jesus of Nazareth! Genesis 50:20; I Peter 2:21-23 3. Must Trust God when correcting: We must trust God to change people - We follow His commands • God will grant them repentance • God will lead them to the knowledge of the truth • They will come to their senses - • They will escape from the trap of the devil - “who has taken them captive to do his will.”

The Generous Life Pt. 2 | November 16, 2025Pastor Wes Morris Proverbs 11:24 (MSG) The world of the generous gets larger and larger; the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller.√  I NEED TO PROTECT MYSELF.Proverbs 29:25 (NIV) Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.√  HAVING MORE WILL MAKE ME SECURE.Mark 10:21–22 (NLT) Jesus looked at him and loved him. “There is still one thing you haven't done,” he said. “Go and sell all your possessions…then come, follow me.” At this the man's face fell, and he went away sad, for he had many possessions.”√  WHAT I HAVE DETERMINES WHO I AM.II Corinthians 8:1-2 (NLT) Now I want you to know, dear brothers and sisters, what God in his kindness has done through the churches in Macedonia. They are being tested by many troubles, and they are very poor. But they are also filled with abundant joy, which has overflowed in rich generosity.A LIFE THAT OVERFLOWSI.  OPEN YOUR HEART TO HEALING.Luke 10:31-33 (NIV) A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him.II.  PLACE YOUR SECURITY IN JESUS.Philippians 4:11-13 (NIV) I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation…I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV) Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.III. LIVE WITH ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE.I Timothy 6:17-19 (NIV) Command them not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.NEXT STEPSWhere is God asking you to show courage this week so your life can overflow - in healing, in trust, or in living with an eternal perspective?

When you look at life in general what are the things that add up to giving you a life that is filled with contentment?  In other words, what are the things you need to be content in your life?  Have you reached contentment in your life?  This Sunday we are going to talk about that.   Before you come it would be helpful to read Philippians 4:10-13, I Timothy 6:6-8, Matthew 6:31-33, and Luke 12:13-21

Episode Summary: In Psalm 119:97, David cries out, “Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day.” But Paul wrote to the Romans, “You are not under law but under grace,” (6:14) and to the Galatians, “If you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law” (5:18). So, for Christians, which is it? Are we called to live free from the Law or devoted to the Law? As we continue our study of I Timothy we realize that the question of the place of the law for Christians was an issue that Timothy and other church leaders at Ephesus were wrestling with. This episode examines what Paul said to Timothy as well as what the rest of Scripture says about whether a believer should try to be righteous, i.e. keep the law.For Further Prayerful Thought:How would try to explain to a new believer that when Paul said that Christians don't live “under the law” he was referring to how we are SAVED, not how we are TO LIVE.What stood out to you about the three categories of biblical law?Look back at the 8 texts and reasons that pursuing righteousness is NOT legalism. Which ones seemed most persuasive to you.In David's Psalm 119 cry, “O how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day” why might he associate loving God's law with meditating on it?For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast: (Click link and scroll down to bottom left)

I Timothy 4

CHRIST: II Timothy 2:10 (Philippians 2:1-11) Last? Paul learned to be others-centered! CONTEXT: Paul writes first to Timothy. These three verses are personal; they are powerful; they are problematic.I. The Impact of the Gospel is Past, Present, & Future: Condition & Promise  1. IF WE DIED (past tense) - conversion language; Jesus died for us; We died with Him; In Adam or In Christ; Luke 9:23; Romans 6:1-8, 11; Galatians 2:20 (“Were you there”); Colossians 3:1-3  2. WE WILL ALSO LIVE WITH HIM (future tense) - see 4:8  3. If we can look back with confidence, then we can look forward with assurance -  4. IF WE ENDURE (Bear up under much pressure; under a load); Jesus endured to the end; Paul endured to the end (lion's mouth); All of God's people will endure; Matthew 24:14; Possess the endurance of a soldier; Possess the endurance of an athlete; Possess the endurance of a farmer!  • WE WILL ALSO REIGN WITH HIM (future tense) - right now counts forever! Great motivation to persevere under the pressure of persecution; I Cor 6:2-3; Rev 3:21; 20:4, 6 (The Millennium)  5. IF WE DENY/DISOWN HIM (negative promise but a promise nonetheless); Have you ever had momentary failures; Failing to speak; Failing to be silent; Timidity sets in; Shame enters in; Don't take the Lord's Name in vain (much more than coarse words); means to live in a way that misrepresents the One we claim to believe in - the One we claim to love; We can't call ourselves Christ-followers and live any way we want; Is this falling from grace? AWOL - Loss of the pride of fighting? Loss of the prize? Loss of the crops? Denied joy, power, prayer (Ps 68:18); forfeiting much blessing  •HE WILL DENY US - “I never knew you”? Matthew 7:21-23;  6. IF WE ARE FAITHLESS (not false faith, but a faulty faith) - I Timothy 1 - “I am sure if your sincere faith”; 2:4 - don't get “entangled”;  • HE REMAINS FAITHFUL - Hebrews He is not ashamed of us; Jesus predicted Peter's denials AND He predicted Peter's restoration!  • FOR HE CANNOT DENY HIMSELF -
