The life of a Christian requires sustaining love for the Truth. What does the Bible teach us that can help us maintain a thriving relationship with God? What can we do to stay engaged in our conversion?

Continually measuring ourselves with Christ’s example, along with God’s help, is how we can grow to become truly mature Christians.

We’ve had opportunities in the past few weeks to see our faith tested. We’ve also had the opportunity to rely on God and give up our futile human sense of control. In this Sermonette, we will explore several Scriptures that can provide the light for the path that we must follow as Christians. As we’ve heard in recent Sermons, being a follower of Jesus Christ requires that we trust in Him, and illustrates our gratitude by obeying Him.

God is not hiding! He reveals Himself in His written Word, in His Creation and in the lives of those called to salvation. But the wicked don’t even seek God—God is in none of their thoughts!

God placed Adam and Eve in a beautiful garden (Paradise) which had two special trees—the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. While the LORD (Jesus Christ) told them that they could eat freely of the Tree of Life, He ordered them not to eat of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Why? When they disobeyed, they hid from God. Why? Because of their sin, God did not allow them any longer to eat from the Tree of Life. Why? What did these trees stand for? Are the principles, symbolized by those two trees, still applicable to us today? What kind of a world would we have today if Adam and Eve had eaten from the Tree of Life? Why is there a Tree of Life in heaven? And what do we know about the existence of Paradise in heaven long before the creation of man?

As Christians we have to fight. We have to choose with what attitude we are going to face the never ending battles. It is never easy to spend time in the ring, but it is absolutely essential in our growth.

A new type of minority exists today where people are singled out due to the decision they make whether they want to be vaccinated or not which leads to various consequences.  As true Christians, we are familiar with what it is like to be a minority.  What is the difference between the “minorities” in the world and the “minorities” that God has chosen out of this world today?

The Bible speaks of longsuffering and gives us many examples of God’s followers who have suffered for a long time. And today, all of us are suffering too… some for comparatively shorter, and some for much longer periods. It may appear at times that our longsuffering is just lasting TOO long. So, what does God tell us about longsuffering?

There is a lot of focus on spiritual development for Christians. Yet the Bible also acknowledges that we are made of flesh and blood, bound in physical bodies. In this state of being, what is our responsibility for maintaining our physical health according to the teaching of the Bible?

We are commanded to choose life, and that means that we must choose to do what God commands. That is how we are to overcome evil.

In this presentation, we cover the ongoing dictatorial persecution of Christian churches and their pastors, including Polish-Canadian Pastor Artur Pawlowski. In other news, we discuss the (temporary?) resignation of Sebastian Kurz as Austria’s chancellor; the despicable abominations within the Catholic church; and attempts to silence opponents of corona vaccination mandates and marines who criticize top military leaders over their incompetent handling of the Afghanistan debacle. We also address troublesome developments in Europe and especially in Germany.

Is suffering always the consequence of sin? Or might there be other reasons? Rather than focusing on suffering as punishment for sin, we will focus in this sermon on sufferings as God’s means to make us perfect and complete.

Meekness is used in the Bible to describe Christians. But what exactly does it mean to be meek? How does the attribute affect us? What are the implications of using meekness in our lives?

There are many ideas as to who the two witnesses are who are mentioned in the Book of Revelation. There are those today who claim these offices already for themselves.  Does the Bible give us hints as to what to look for, and how to separate truth from error?

Where in our lives do we just settle for what ever is easiest? Where do we need to look for change? Does the Bible say anything about just doing the least to get by?

The book of Lamentations describes in vivid and shocking detail the fall of ancient and modern Jerusalem and shows why it did and will happen. Further, Jeremiah’s prophecy and his alarming warnings are by no means limited to the city of Jerusalem.

We receive God’s Holy Spirit at baptism. But this Spirit is supposed to grow within us as we become stronger in God’s Faith. How is this accomplished? Is it really that important to do so? What happens when we grow in the use of the Holy Spirit within our lives?
