This message contains some conjecture about the place of safety which is promised to the true church at the time of the Great tribulation. Scripture is clear about the event but neither the place nor the timing is known, nor are the travel arrangements! Some speculative ideas are reviewed as to how this might happen.
Sermons
Equality with God in His Kingdom?
Is it our destiny to attain equality with God? Or just a certain resemblance? Is Christ equal to God or just similar to Him? What does it mean to inherit the Kingdom of God? What IS the Kingdom of God? Do we have to do something to inherit it? What is meant by “born again”? Who or what is God? IS God a Family, or does He just HAVE a Family? What is the connection between God, the God Family, and the Kingdom of God? What is the gospel of the Kingdom? And finally, what is the most important work of God on earth today?
Praise the LORD!
Should we praise and worship God, and are there actually conditions for praising Him? The Bible reveals how and why God accepts praise from those who obey Him.
Excuses
If we want God to work in our lives, we have to put in the effort that He requires. When we choose to make excuses instead of taking action, we become unprofitable. By putting our faith to work we give God an opportunity to bless our efforts.
Three Good Reasons to Give
Giving to the One Who created us all is a reflection of the priorities that we have in our life. It is a privilege to give, and we know that a blessing is promised by God for those who follow His instructions, as we can read in Malachi 3. This message gives three good reasons to give.
A Catalog of Sins—Not that Important?
Have you created a catalog of sins that distinguishes between important and not so important actions? Does the Bible teach the concept of the seven deadly sins? Or is every sin wrong and an abomination in God’s eyes? What does God call sin and an abomination anyway? And what does God say who will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Why does God designate certain character traits as “most important” in the law? And do you love God and neighbor when you break the spiritual law of the Ten Commandments?
A Way of Life
The Feast of Unleavened Bread is a yearly festival that shows that we have to put sin out of our lives. It is part of a Way of Life to which we have been called. This sermon reinforces the understanding that this Way of Life is a full-time commitment for the rest of our lives.
Don’t Add or Take Away
The Bible mentions several times that we are not to add or take away from what is written. What is God referring to?
Relativism is Failing
It is shocking how quickly the moral standards of an already corrupt world have fallen. This concept of relative morality has been embraced by so many leaders in government and the corporate world. A sliding scale of right and wrong can be convenient but will lead away from God. Those who obey God and His Son, Jesus Christ, understand that following such pronouncements will more often conflict with God’s Law. In this Sermonette we will explore several Scriptures and examples that can assist God’s people in navigating these confusing and compromised times we live in.
The One
The name, “Jesus Christ,” is spoken by a religious world deceived about Who He actually is, and the name of the Son of God is even blasphemed over and over as a curse word. Yet, “…there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Do you believe and really know that Jesus is the Messiah, and that He is the Son of God?
