The God family is a family of creators. They created everything and sustain everything. Sadly, due to Satan’s rebellion and man’s failures as well, there has been nothing but destruction ever since. Yet the God family is not done creating. There is more to their plan. How will their plans for regeneration affect us and all of mankind in the future?
Sermons
Living the Dream
In modern parlance when people talk of “living the dream”, invariably they refer to their way life is going. Whether stated in sincerity or sarcastically, this evaluation declares that life is so good that it couldn’t be better, being in pursuit of one’s dreams. To most, living the dream is an impossibility. What guidance can we find in the Bible that motivates us to truly be “living the dream”?
Selfish or Selfless?
The Bible addresses the matter of selfishness with strong warnings. The Bible also teaches us how to be unselfish—to have the selfless character of Jesus Christ.
Christ and the Church
Do you believe that Jesus Christ still guides the Church of God, today? If you do, are you keeping what He commands, and, most importantly, are you a member of the True Church of God that is revealed in the Bible?
Waiting Is Hard!
In this human lifetime, it seems that we wait for so many things to happen: an appointment with the dentist and a concert that we are looking forward to, and as followers of the Creator, we await the return of Jesus Christ and the institution of the Kingdom. There are times when waiting is especially difficult. Perhaps we are waiting to heal from a health issue, or a situation in our lives and our jobs in which we must rely solely on God for resolution. This can be trying for us, but we know that we can rely on God, and His Word to strengthen us. In this Sermonette we will cover Scriptures that are relevant to this very human challenge—learning to place the situation in God’s hands and not in our limited, carnal human potential.
Mysteries of the Animal World
Why and how does the Bible contradict and reject the Evolution concept, and why are many occurrences in the animal world unexplainable mysteries for Evolution-believing scientists? How does God feel about cross breeding? What is parthenogenesis, and what might be the reason for its existence? Can animals choose not to reproduce? Are we still obliged to refrain from eating the meat of “unclean animals”? Are we to refrain from eating meat altogether? Is it true that God does not care about oxen?
What Is It We Are Searching For?
Without knowing where we are headed, we will lose our way in this world. If we are not fully focused on serving God, we are not following Christ’s command to “seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.” That is our guiding light, and all of our actions can and must fall under that way
of thinking.
Sandcastles and God’s Church
Building a sandcastle can be wonderfully peaceful and relaxing, but it can also be frustrating if your aim is designing a structure that is enduring and beautiful. The perfect sandcastle can never be achieved, and similarly, God’s true church is entirely dependent on the structure that He has created. In this Sermonette we will cover scriptures that can aid in our understanding of the importance of clinging to God’s commandments and interweaving this with our relationships with one another as members of His Church. This is essential in order for the Church to thrive and the work to be done.
Become Who You Are
Our identity forms the foundation upon which we build our character, experience our life, and guide our behavior. Most of the time, we will instinctively make judgments to be consistent with our identity. Our moral and spiritual compass points in the direction that leads us to become who we choose to be. By firmly establishing our identity as Christians, we have Jesus Christ as our guide, to learn righteousness and lead us to become glorified members of God’s family.
Death Grip On Life
The term death grip refers to having a really tight hold on something and not letting go. Spiritually speaking, what is it that we need to hold on to firmly making sure that we don’t lose it?
