Podcasts about set apart

As strangers and exiles on earth, Christians are to resist sinful desires that war against the soul and pursue lives marked by holiness and honorable conduct. By submitting to authority, doing good, and using their freedom to serve God, believers provide a compelling witness that silences false accusations and points others to Christ. Peter concludes by calling God's people to honor everyone, love the family of faith, fear God, and live in a way that reflects His character. In doing so, Christians demonstrate what it means to be set apart while faithfully engaging the world around them.

In this episode, Bruce reflects on Acts 13:2–4 and the call of Barnabas and Saul, who were set apart and sent by the Holy Spirit.The Holy Spirit is not given simply so that we might become more spiritual ourselves. He is given so that we might become more available to God and His mission.Bruce reminds us that mission always begins with God. Long before we ask what God wants us to do, He has already been preparing us through our experiences, gifts, weaknesses, joys, disappointments, and seasons of waiting.This devotional invites you to ask a deeper question: am I becoming the kind of person who is available to God if He chooses to call me?What is the Holy Spirit asking of you today?

As we come to Jesus, the living Cornerstone chosen by God, we become living stones in His spiritual house and part of His royal priesthood. God has chosen us to be His own people, calling us out of darkness into His marvelous light so that we can proclaim His goodness to others. Because we have received His mercy, our identity is no longer shaped by the world but by Christ, and we are set apart to live in a way that reflects His character and brings Him glory.

We are so excited to worship with you this Sunday! We'll be continuing this journey through our Set Apart series, and Pastor Scott will be speaking on the Thessalonian church, and exploring the question “what happens when an entire church lives set apart, together?” It's going to be a great Sunday!

The church at Antioch is worshiping and fasting when the Holy Spirit says, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul." They pray, lay hands on the two men, and send them off to proclaim the faith. From there the word runs into a sorcerer on Cyprus and into a synagogue in Pisidian Antioch, where Paul preaches the God who kept His promise and brought Israel a Savior from David's line.  The Rev. Robert Smith, pastor emeritus in Ft. Wayne, IN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Acts 13:1-25. The book of Acts picks up where the Gospels leave off. Jesus has risen. He has ascended. And now what? Acts answers that question. Luke tells the story of how the Holy Spirit built the Church from a handful of frightened disciples in Jerusalem into a movement that reached Rome itself. Along the way, you get Pentecost, the first sermons, the first martyrs, the conversion of Paul, the first church councils, shipwrecks, riots, and the persistent, stubborn work of God through Word and Sacrament even when His people didn't have a plan. If you've ever wondered how we got from Easter morning to the Church you sit in today, this is the book. Tune in for this new series on Thy Strong Word with Pastor Phil Booe and guest pastors as we open up the Book of Acts.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

How do principals serve in Northern Illinois? Kevin Becker (Principal of Immanuel Lutheran School in East Dundee, Illinois) and Kate Thoelke (Principal of St. Paul's Lutheran School in Brookfield, Illinois) join Andy and Sarah to talk about their paths to becoming church workers, some of the key figures who encouraged their formation, the schools each of them serve in today and their paths to their current vocations, why it's important to each of them to invest in Lutheran education, and how Lutheran teachers and principals can cultivate a culture of church work formation and recruitment in our Lutheran schools.

Awesome God: Holy - God is Set Apart | The Narrow Junior High Ministry | Nathan Zelaya

In this sermon, Pastor Andrew explains that Christian relationships should be "holy," or set apart for God's purpose, meaning we should engage with unbelievers to evangelize (13:45) and hold other believers accountable to grow closer to Christ (21:20). He emphasizes that while the church has the jurisdiction to practice discipline toward unrepentant members, we are called to leave the judgment of outsiders to God while actively sharing the gospel with them (36:45-38:20).#SetApartForGod #HolyLiving #BiblicalHoliness #ChurchDiscipline #BiblicalChurch #ChristianAccountability #Evangelism #ShareTheGospel #MakeDisciples #1Corinthians #ExpositoryPreaching #BibleTeaching #Faithfulness #LiveForChrist #FollowJesus #GospelCentered #TruthMatters #ChristianGrowth #CalvaryTilton #SoliDeoGloria

1 Peter | Live set apart in Christ's example | Sam Winn Sam Winn

What does Peter mean when he quotes Leviticus in saying, "Be Holy for I am Holy"? Is it something that God does for us, or something we do for ourselves? In our passage from Thessalonians, the Apostle Paul says that it is God's will that we all be sanctified and that living Holy lives pleases God but what does that look like in a practical sense ? In this message we answer all of those questions and more, clearing up any confusion and examine why pursuing holiness/sanctification/righteousness benefits us. From 1st Thessalonians 4:1-8Thank you for listening to our podcast and we would love for you to subscribe to our page and share with others. Join us for our weekly worship online at www.firstbaptistblowingrock.com or our Youtube page. Contact us at office@firstbaptistblowingrock.com or by phone @ 828-295-7715

Studying grammar, particularly antonyms like "common" and "profane", helps us better understand the original meanings of the Hebrew words related to holiness and sanctification.  We have a language problem, where holiness is made synonymous with perfection; it cannot mean perfection or sinlessness except when speaking of God and His attributes.  When God declares people holy, they are set apart and dedicated, not perfect.
