We can survive physically through God’s perfect creation of the earth within the atmosphere mankind lives in. The atmosphere at this year’s Feast of Tabernacles was everything that this current world is not. It was positive with joy, peace, and spiritual food to prepare us for what the future holds. The atmosphere of this world is deteriorating more and more and we must remain vigilant spiritually as we fight against the god of this world. How can we succeed?

If you can understand biblical Truth today, then God has called you and given you the opportunity to attain eternal salvation. Did God make a mistake? Don’t you know what to do with your calling… what God requires of you? If God has a plan for you, what is that plan? Are you expecting too much from God… or too little?

In Proverbs 4:26 is a great admonition for all of us: “Ponder the path of your feet, And let all your ways be established.”  It is a good exercise to review what we do and whether we do have one foot in the world in one way or another.

Satan can sow discord and destroy relationships by lying and spreading rumors. Lies, accusations and spreading rumors are a form of bearing false witness. Such actions violate the commandment to love our neighbor and are tools Satan uses to divide and destroy relationships. Is he a friend?

Praying is how we maintain a connection with God. This sermon outlines some of the important aspects of prayer.  It will also give points on what our prayers can do.

This sermon discusses identifying our spiritual enemies which is a far more serious situation – a matter of life and death – than the temporary problems of this life which can be distressing, but are only for a short while.   Enemies that interfere with our spiritual life can have future eternal consequences and these are identified and discussed

This sermon looks at the life of Christ, His purpose, His response to situations He went through, His early life, His ministry, His relationship with God and the example He set for us to  follow.

God has an awesome plan in effect today, which gives us something to be joyful about. Even if we have other events that might cause us to be sad, such as the conclusion of the Fall Holy Days for the year, we have a source of joy that is strong enough to overcome the sadness. With that joyful spirit we make our offerings to God.

Jesus proclaimed a message of salvation on the eighth day of the Feast–which we have come to call “the Last Great Day.” What Jesus did and what He spoke about gives meaning to this last Annual Holy Day of God.

In our world today the crime of identity theft and worse has become a near constant threat to deal with. From credit card scams now being a daily component of email, and on-line purchases, to the theft of one’s identity, life can be an all-consuming race to protect our financial well-being and reputations. However, as a true Christian one never need worry about losing our singular identity in the eyes of our Creator—our Father in Heaven. In this Split-Sermon we will cover scriptures that show us how we can rely on God for the spiritual and physical protection of our unique being that He created.

Maintaining a vision of our future in the Kingdom of God helps us endure the challenges that we face in life. Knowing that we are children of God destined to glory gives us something to hope for, fueling our inspiration and motivation to overcome sin and draw close to God in obedience.

Through His ministers and messages, God deepens the knowledge for which He has opened our minds. We can evaluate our situation and must then apply what we have understood. This happens in sometimes lengthy processes, but God shapes our character and guides us in our lives if we allow His Holy Spirit to lead us. HIS plan will be fulfilled, and it is our task, within our lives as Christians, to have a part in this fulfillment.

This sermon looks at several aspects of our lives and relationships to encourage us to appreciate our calling and our relationship with one another and with God.

The complexity of life and sabotage from Satan threaten to distract us from the focus we need to maintain our relationship with God. But His instructions for us are simple. We are to follow His commandments, turn from sin, and have faith in the salvation of Christ if we want to inherit the Kingdom of God. We can rely on the simplicity of Christ to guide us through our lives so that we succeed in the end.

King David asked God in the Psalms where he should dwell. The answer is quite eye-opening in terms of how we are to live as Christians. With this true knowledge, we can live closely with God. 

This sermon is about our responsibility and power to forgive, showing that we must forgive from the heart—just as God does.

We may not have much power now, but in the future as a member of the God family we will have more power than we can ever realise at this time.   It’s the power in the Kingdom of God that we should be eagerly looking forward to, not the selfish, self-serving power that seems to be a high priority with so many today

Do we understand what the power of God is? And if we do understand that, do we understand how to use this power? Does God tell us that we will be able to use it?

In this present age the nations of the world are not at peace. Conflicts, wars, and espionage exist between many nations instead. But after the return of Jesus Christ and the establishment of the Kingdom of God, peace will prevail among nations, who will come together to worship the true God.
