If we abuse the gifts, then we're doing damage to the body of Christ and certainly not using them for the purpose for which Christ gave them. them through the Holy Spirit. And so, I talked about that last week and we're building kind of a foundation from which we can understand the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
And I talked about the fact that the foundation of the gifts is love. And we looked at the context of all of the passages from Ephesians, from Romans, and from 1 Corinthians. And in each of those passages, it's all around it, is the... critical importance of agape love.

1. Part 1: Foundation of Love - I Cor 13
6 days ago
6 days ago
There's lots of abuse when it comes to the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and almost always it results from a lack of love, a misunderstanding about the foundational truth of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. And I'm going to get to that in a few minutes, so I'll explain that. It's almost always emphasizing the individual rather than the corporate body, where it's drawing a lot of attention to that person.

01. Check Him Out! (John 1:19-51)
Tuesday Apr 30, 2024
Tuesday Apr 30, 2024
The Bible starts out in the book of John with John speaking of Jesus Christ. He's the Messiah He was pre -existent. He is distinct from the father and the and the Holy Spirit and at the same time He is deity. He is God and so John starts out with his grandiose beginning of explaining who Jesus Christ is. Today we're going to be looking at John the Baptist, and an introduction to his life, also looking at John's first experience with Jesus in understanding that he's the Messiah, and then look at one of them, what I believe is one of the most fundamental and basic teachings on evangelism and the Bible on how to reach others with the good news of Jesus Christ.

40. The Recommissioning of Peter (John 21:15-25)
Thursday Apr 25, 2024
Thursday Apr 25, 2024
Very specifically, through Christ, to a certain lifestyle and to follow Him and to make disciples, we're going to go over some of this. But in the face of discouragement and Peter's own failure, he went back to what he was most comfortable with in the past, and he went fishing, and we talked about that life. last week. But, as Romans 11, 29 tells us, God's calling and gifts are irrevocable.
And God knew that Peter was going to take a dive for a short period of time. And not only Peter, but that he was going to influence the other disciples to go AWOL as well. But you know the wonderful thing about God, and if you get nothing else from today's message except this, I want you to remember that God... is a God that never gives up. He never says, "That's it. You're finished.

39. Absent Without Leave (John 21:1-14)
Tuesday Apr 23, 2024
Tuesday Apr 23, 2024
I've entitled the teaching today "Absent Without Leave." For those of you in the military with any military background, and most of you that don't have military background, you know what?
What absent without leave means, it means a situation where a soldier commissioned to do a certain post or a certain responsibility leaves without the authorization of his commanding officer.
There are actually a number of figures in the Bible who were guilty of going AWOL. In fact, we find in the very first few chapters of the Bible Adam and Eve going AWOL on the commissioning that God gave them.

38. Sightings (John 20:10-31)
Thursday Apr 18, 2024
Thursday Apr 18, 2024
For Christ, it's not sightings, it's appearances. Why? Because Christ made himself absolutely visible. You know, he wasn't hiding. He wasn't transporting us up into heaven and dissecting our brain and switching parts and then putting us back and trying to to erase our memories so that we couldn't recall what happened to us. No, I mean it's like Jesus came right down and he said, "Here I am. Feel me, touch me, examine me." There's no area 51 with Jesus.

37."It is Finished!" (John 19:16-30)
Tuesday Apr 16, 2024
Tuesday Apr 16, 2024
You know, over the years and over the millennia, there have been a number of men who have claimed to be enlightened and to have the word of truth. I think about Muhammad, Siddhartha Gautama, who was Buddha. We have Confucius and, of course, Jesus Christ. Each of these men, men died and was buried. But only one rose from the dead, never to die again, and his name was Jesus Christ

36. Wonder if You're Loved? (John 18:28-19)
Thursday Apr 11, 2024
Thursday Apr 11, 2024
And I titled the message Wonder if you're Loved. And there are very few of us who at times don't wonder or have that great need to know that yes, we are loved, and we are loved.
That's one of the greatest needs actually that God has placed in our hearts. I believe, Even more than in some cases, more than some of the basic necessities of life. We have this deep longing to know that we have value and importance and that we are loved and that's really what this message is about today. So, although it's a challenging message for me to deliver to you and a challenging one to receive, I believe that it's the fullest and most complete and most comprehensive expression of love ever known to man and ever known in the future to man.

35. Dealing with Life's Disappointments (John 18:1-27)
Tuesday Apr 09, 2024
Tuesday Apr 09, 2024
This is a pretty powerful passage.
There's an awful lot happening in a very condensed period of time. The hours are short before Jesus' death. He is about to give up everything for you and for me. He's going to pay the ultimate price for our sin that we can be reconciled to God. But before that happens, there are some final catastrophic disappointments that Jesus is going to face in his final hours.

34. Jesus' Commissioning Prayer - Part 2 (John 17:20-26)
Thursday Apr 04, 2024
Thursday Apr 04, 2024
Last message we talked about Jesus' commissioning prayer, and if you recall, the first three things that Jesus prayed for his disciples, for the growth and expansion of the kingdom, was protection. And we need it. We need protection from sin and the world, but we also need protection from the onslaught of the enemy.
So, Jesus prays right away for protection. Jesus is leaving. He protected them during His earthly ministry. And now that He's making the transition back to the Father's right hand, now He's asking that the Father would take over that responsibility of protecting the disciples.
