Admonish One Another (Colossians 3:16)

As we continue our series on the “one anothers” of Scripture, we are reminded that God cares about how we treat one another and He instructs us on how to do it properly.  This morning we shall discuss the uncomfortable yet important one another of admonition. In Colossians 3, God speaks to us through theContinueContinue reading “Admonish One Another (Colossians 3:16)”

In Love Serve One Another (Galatians 5:13-15)

Of the many “one another” passages in the Bible, the one today is another one that is well-known but difficult to put into practice.  This morning we shall discuss the difference between having a man-centered and a Christ-centered view of salvation.  Our verses are found in Galatians 5:13-15: For you were called to freedom, brothers.ContinueContinue reading “In Love Serve One Another (Galatians 5:13-15)”

Able to Instruct One Another (Romans 15:14)

There are many “one another” passages in the Bible.  These passages are commands from God for how the members of the Church are to think, speak, and act towards one another.  This morning we shall discuss a very important, but often neglected “one another” passage.   It is from Romans 15:14: I myself am satisfied aboutContinueContinue reading “Able to Instruct One Another (Romans 15:14)”

God instructs us in Philippians 2:3-4: “Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.  Let each of you look not only to his own interests but also the interests of others.” Sounds easy, doesn’t it!  Actually, if we are honest, we realize that fulfilling these verses isContinueContinue reading “Count Others More Significant (Philippians 2:2-3)”

Speaking the Truth in Love (Ephesians 4:15)

Take a moment to consider the people who are in this worship service.  As you consider them, ask yourself this question: “Who are these people?”  This is not a silly exercise because how you answer that question about one another says a lot about how you treat one another. What if we refused to seeContinueContinue reading “Speaking the Truth in Love (Ephesians 4:15)”

Facing Fear! Trusting God! (2 Timothy 1:7)

Photo by Suzy Hazelwood from Pexels If you have ever been involved in Vacation Bible School (VBS) the words conjure up many memories.  Some remember that it is usually hot.  Some remember crafts, games, and Bible stories.  I remember Kool-Aid and cookies and gathering together with my friends and loved ones to learn about Jesus.ContinueContinue reading “Facing Fear! Trusting God! (2 Timothy 1:7)”

Our Vision: Where We Hope To Go (Matthew 22:34-40)

Last week we discussed “Our Mission: What We Are Called To Do” and learned that we are called to reach and teach for changed lives.  This morning we shall discuss “Our Vision: Where We Hope To Go” and see that we are to be a community of disciples who love God and love others.  Let’sContinueContinue reading “Our Vision: Where We Hope To Go (Matthew 22:34-40)”
