— LAST SUNDAY'S SERMON —
This Sunday, we will begin our verse-by-verse study with Colossians 1:1-2. Come be encouraged as Paul points us to the central theme of Christ!
El desafío de Paul de NUNCA VOLVER A IR ALLÍ. No abrace las obras, la ley, la tradición, la ceremonia como un camino de salvación, confíe solo en Cristo por Gracia a través de la Fe. Mantente libre, nunca vuelvas a la esclavitud. Pablo es IMPRESIONANTE en estos versículos y dice cosas a las que incluso los cristianos sólidos reaccionan. Habla de los que se alejan de Cristo, de los que deciden salvarse a su manera. SIN EMBARGO TAMBIÉN celebra la singularidad de la vida en el Espíritu, donde confiamos en Cristo y vivimos una vida de amor por las obras.

The Pursuit of True Peace
The pursuit of true peace is impossible without the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives – it is the fruit, the evidence He dwells in us. We simply can’t do it only in our own strength, no matter how hard we try.
No Playing Favorites (James 2:1-3)
We open up chapter 2 and deal with partiality. Our Savior and Lord is very concerned about HOW YOU and I as His children, treat other people, even people that we don’t know well, or people who are different than us.
The Crucial Daily Practice of Obeying God’s Word (James 1:22-27)
We get a helpful exhortation from James 1:22-27 to build the daily habit of OBEDIENCE to God’s Word; not just being a HEARER but a DOER of the Truth!
The Danger of Religion (Luke 18:9-14)
What kind of people do we need at Faith Bible Church as we move into a new facility? You might think that hard-working, practically perfect people would be the ideal. Nothing could be further from the truth. God desires the church to be filled with imperfect, failed and flawed people who will depend entirely upon Him. He doesn’t want your pretend-perfection. He wants you to trust Him entirely with all of your life.
The Bible Impacts Every Believer (James 1:19-21)
JAMES transitions to a new topic, challenging his readers in a whole new way, and tests believers over their response to God’s Word. Today, in doctrinally sound churches, we find the same responses to the preaching and teaching of the Bible. There is the response of HEARING ONLY and the response of HEARING and DOING.
Gentleness
Gentleness is an inner attitude of the mind and heart that is completely surrendered to God’s will. It accepts every circumstance as God’s good for us and does not argue against or resist anything He brings our way.
Living Confident in God’s Character (part 2) (James 1:16-18)
We continue in James with verses 13-18 Part Two: we focus again on the process of temptation and how God’s character and God’s salvation make all the difference in overcoming the temptation to sin.
It’s Not My Fault, part 1 (James 1:13-18)
James starts a new topic, from trials to temptations, with the focus on YOU and I taking responsibility for our sins. Don’t blame God for the temptations to sin, look in the mirror to see the person to blame—and understand just how the temptation to sin works. When you understand how temptation begins you will be more prone to resist it.
The Great Equalizer (James 1:9-12)
James wraps up his paragraph on trials. There were great tensions between the poor and the rich in the first century so as James wraps up trials, he describes them as the great equalizer as well as the great endurance test for believers.
Why Me? (James 1:5-8)
WHY ME, James answers the question of trials but calling Christians to pray for Wisdom and trust his loving control
Priorities of a Faithful Mom
Faithfulness is to be trustworthy when you are not supervised. It’s being trustworthy when your efforts seem unnoticed. Faithfulness can sometimes be the difference between good intentions and actions. Not done perfectly, but attempted prayerfully.
