Sermons

God is a creator. Satan is a destroyer. What is the purpose of God’s creation? How does Satan attempt to sabotage God’s plan? What can we do to participate in God’s creative plan?

God is the creator, and He had formed His great Master Plan that involves the salvation of mankind.  By keeping the Feast of Tabernacles, the Church of God is foreshadowing the establishment of God’s Kingdom on the earth – knowledge that is not relevant to the rest of mankind. 

The book of Isaiah tells us quite a bit about the conditions in the Millennium. In this sermon, we will discover what Isaiah was inspired to write pertaining to a future time about which most people have no understanding.

God commands us to keep the Feast of Tabernacles and the Last Great Day for an entire time span of eight days. But why? What is the purpose for this commandment?

How do mercy and truth work together?  One covers sin and the other doesn’t want anything to do with sin, so how do they both work together?

What is the only hope for mankind? What is the atonement for sin, which brings about forgiveness and reconciliation? Did animal sacrifices really provide the kind of atonement which God was looking for?  If not, what is it, and what does the Day of Atonement symbolize?

We must always be willing to receive correction from God, either as babes in Christ or mature Christians.  Our eternal reward relies on our own desire to follow and inculcate the correction we receive into our lives. 

Pride is a sneaky characteristic that can cause tremendous damage to our relationship with God. It is important to always remember that all our strength comes from God, and that we need to be on guard so we can quickly prevent it from taking root in our lives.

The Feast of Trumpets is a MEMORIAL–a celebration and reminder that we are to hold in remembrance. Not unlike other parts of God’s Holy Day Master Plan, this Feast Day is an observance of what will happen in the future!

We will explore today what the book of Isaiah tells us about the conditions of the modern houses of Israel and Judah just before and at the time of Christ’s return, and what the Church’s responsibility is in light of that understanding.

What do we do when we are faced with discouragement and how can we conquer it? 

While there have always been problems to deal with, the intensity of the issues so many are now facing is quite striking.  Through many examples and by absolute promises from God, the Bible reveals that we can have help to face our difficulties.

The world has taken on a mob mentality and blindly following the subversive lead of Satan.  We must put God first in our lives in order to see the destruction Satan is leading this world to.

In what way will Christ come as a thief in the night? Do the different Greek words used for Christ’s coming prove a secret rapture? What does it mean that some will be taken, and others will be left behind? Why will eagles be gathered together where the carcass and the body will be? Does God promise His elect protection at a particular place here on earth during the time of the Great Tribulation?

How are faith and righteousness related? It is part of God’s plan to provide the
opportunity to become righteous, by overcoming sin. Is it possible to pvercome
without faith? What kind of faith do we need to have?

Will Christ’s disciples be raptured and taken to the third heaven? How is Christ’s Second Coming described? Will He return secretly or visibly? Will He return twice? Where and how did the idea of a secret rapture originate? Does the Bible teach it, and did the early New Testament Church believe in it?

Do our actions reflect the way we should live, by being good examples?  We are constantly being judged by others and especially God to see if we live a righteous life.  At the same time we shouldn’t judge others, but first consider that what we are doing is right.

How we view others-and by extension, even ourselves–along with
staying faithful to the wondrous calling of God has to do with how we handle the
things we know. There are things that should be forgotten and those that should
never be forgotten!

Brotherly love requires transforming our thoughts to not only include the lives of others, but also to build understanding through the lives of others. The Body of Christ, the Church, is composed of many individual members, each serving a purpose and each deeply linked to one another. As such, the life of a Christian requires working together with empathy and consideration for others and the Body as a whole.

To relay the importance of really listening to God’s instruction and law for our
safety and salvation.
To also be there for each other in times of need and truly listen to be
able to give heart felt advice or help.
Its about selflessness, to care about God’s law, to learn not just enough
to get safety and salvation, but to be useful to Him and each other.
