Rights And Wrongs - Part 2 of 2

Yes, the pose is fun, the tune is catchy... but do not walk like an Egyptian. The children of Israel wanted to return to Egypt since almost the moment they escaped from Egypt. Again and again in their history they were tempted to trust this nation that represents worldly power - and bondage! In the church age we see that pattern repeating, and we talked about it briefly yesterday. Let's look again at 1 Corinthians 5 and 6.

Rights And Wrongs - Part 1 of 2

Yeast goes in the ciabatta, not in the church! The thing about yeast is that it's all around us - it's in the air right now - and it multiplies. We see it often in the Bible as a symbol of sin. This invisible infiltrator is something to guard against, spiritually speaking. Jesus told His men to "...beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees." And Paul cautioned the Corinthians about their careless kitchen habits. Here's Jim to talk about Rights and Wrongs.

Life, Liberty & The Pursuit Of Happiness - Part 2 of 2

Christianity's highest value is not tolerance! Tolerance has become a kind of religion unto itself - and a very popular one. Those who refuse to bow to the god of Tolerance will not be tolerated! What we see in Jesus isn't open-mindedness about sin, but an offer to cleanse anyone who wants to be clean. That requires certain things of His church. We began to speak about those on Friday. We're in 1 Corinthians 5, with Jim.

Life, Liberty & The Pursuit Of Happiness - Part 1 of 2

Our transformation comes with an obligation. We're responsible, of course, for our own actions. But what about the conduct of others? And which others? Are we accountable for the behavior of our minor children, for example? Most would say "yes" - and our laws may one day reflect that idea. But what about grownups who are not our relatives? Aren't our fellow servants of Christ allowed to serve Him however they see fit? The Corinthians had come up with the wrong answer to this question.

Faith Fathers - Part 1 of 1

Falling into factions, versus following a father. The ink was still drying on the parchment where Paul had warned the Corinthians to escape whatever cult of personality they had joined - including the "cult of Paul." But now he felt the need to correct the church, and to do that, he had to remind them that he had a unique relationship with them. It's not about personality, but responsibility. Here's a sermon Jim preached on Father's Day a few years ago, called Faith Fathers.

Stunted Growth - Part 2 of 2

Is a carnal Christian really a Christian? When a saved person acts like an unsaved person, all of the alarm bells should go off! We're not talking about new believers - we'll be patient with them and provide good examples while the Spirit helps them grow. But are we growing? Do we even understand that spiritual maturity is the goal? We've got problems with this in the American church, just like they did in the Corinthian church. Here's Jim to conclude his message on, Stunted Growth.

Stunted Growth - Part 1 of 2

A "party spirit" isn't actually as fun as it sounds. Paul once gave us a list of "deeds of the flesh," including "hatreds, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions," and the one we'll look at today: "factions." An older translation gives that as "party spirit," as in a political party - we would say, "partisanship." Why do Christians divide themselves into streams of teaching, or teachers? We need to stop.

The Degree That Destroys - Part 2 of 2

Real philosophers love Jesus. Once you've said that "all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden" in Christ, that's it. There's no wisdom left for pretenders like Plato, Descartes, Nietzsche. It's all in Jesus. And it's "hidden." Hidden from those who claim to love wisdom, but who aren't willing to look for it at the Source. We're in the letter of 1 Corinthians today to conclude Jim's message, The Degree That Destroys.

The Degree That Destroys - Part 1 of 2

Higher education, lower destination? "I am much afraid that schools will prove to be the great gates of hell unless they diligently labor in explaining the Holy Scriptures, engraving them in the hearts of youth." If you know that quote is from Martin Luther, go to the head of the class! The battle for our minds is an ancient one; it goes back farther than we may realize. Today Jim will help us see what's really going on, with his message, The Degree That Destroys
