Hannah is an example to all of God's children of how to act in a dark time. In her barrenness she made a vow to God, and she kept it instead of making excuses. She earnestly prayed to the Lord and faithed to see Him answer her prayer. Our prayers are heard by the Lord; keep praying for the future of this ministry and those things that will bring Him glory. Our prayers have an effect, and God will make His will come to pass. VF-2184 1 Samuel 1-2

God's motherly love shines through in a bleak passage directed against the hypocritical scribes and Pharisees. Knowing what the word of God said, they were unable to apply it to themselves or hear the call of God.

This is a Mother's Day message lifting up those who might not have been in a celebratory mood. The downcast soul of Psalms 42 & 43 is addressed. The causes include absence from God's presence, the self and outside forces as enemies, memories of a better day, being overwhelmed by life, and feeling forgotten by God. The cure is to "Put Hope! in God for yet will I praise Him!"

Many mothers in the Bible show us the lengths a mother will go to in order to protect her child.

God honored her faith and Moses survived to become the deliverer of his people out of Egypt. VF-2132 Exodus 1

Several mothers in the Bible give us the picture of the motherly comfort of God. A barren woman named Hannah prayed to God for a child, and her prayers actually changed the future of the children of Israel. Mary, the mother of Jesus, trusted God in the unknown, in what she could not see, foreknow, or foretell about her son. These parents are an inspiration to every person, regardless of gender. They teach us how to face all things with God's help in prayer. They also give us a beautiful picture of godly parenting at work. VF-2549

After the devastating Los Angeles fires, we must be even more vigilant to protect our calling. That starts with being aware of the devil's methods with us. They are subtle, and designed to fill us with fear, doubt, and everything that is the antithesis of faith. The only hope we have is to put on the whole armor of God and be ready for the enemy from head to toe. If we focus on building our community of believers back up to be strong in the Lord through the Spirit of God, there will be an actual revolution in the state of California. VF-2480 Ephesians 6

There is a battle for your soul, and it is dangerous to fail to understand the enemy is always there. A target is on your back when you open your mouth and make a commitment. When our committedness or our attitude towards our commitment changes, we open up the door for the devil to pick us off. We must treat Christ as our fort, our place of resistance, and recognize that putting on the full armor of God means putting on Christ, who fortifies us from the inside. When we mess up, we need to get up again and learn from the last time. VF-2245 Ephesians 6:10-17

Like a skilled hunter, satan observes and considers us to make his most powerful attacks, to hinder us, to tempt us, and to take us as prey. But God has His hand on us. There is no reason why we should be under this kind of attack unless we have a part in God's kingdom. There is a battle for us, and we need to take spiritual inventory so we can see where the battle is. We cannot fight the devil in the flesh, but in unity with Christ. The battle is the Lord's.

The prophecies of Zechariah are directed at the heart of the people. He called them to repentance and urged them to commit their heart to God. Throughout the book, we find revelations of the Messiah in both His first and second advent, with very specific details that unfold in the New Testament. There are so many things that we can glean from this book: not just that Christ is coming again, Christ is King, and that in Christ there is salvation, but also that there are consequences for a people who turn their back on God.

God used the prophet Jeremiah to deliver a message to the southern kingdom of Judah that no one wanted to hear: "The agreement I made with their fathers is broken and cancelled." History shows that God kept His word. He brought Judah into Babylonian captivity for 70 years. This contradicts everything that's being proclaimed about modern-day Israel and the people that live there today. While there are many messages in the book of Jeremiah, one of the most beloved is the promise of a New Covenant. This assures us that no matter how far we think we've fallen, or how bad we think we are, it's never too late to turn back to God. VF-2551 Jeremiah

God was longsuffering with the children of Israel, but eventually, He had enough. They defaulted on the land He had promised them, they did not keep the covenant, and they would not turn back to Him. Just as God judged Nineveh when they would not heed His warnings, He had to punish His own people when they rejected Him. Our own country needs to turn back to God today. We might wonder how long God will allow evil things to go on in the world, but God will deal with them in His own time. Nahum, Zephaniah & Habakkuk VF-2550

Micah was a true prophet of God amongst many false prophets. He preached the unpopular message that there is judgment and punishment for sin, and for abandoning your God. The false prophets were deliberately blind to rampant sin. They ingratiated themselves to the rich and affluent, and only spoke good and positive words for financial profit. They saw no connection between their behavior and the impending doom upon the nation. Nothing has changed, and the question that God asked through the prophet is still valid today: "What has God done to offend you?" This is what the modern church needs to be asking itself, since many have defected from following God. VF-2547 Micah

God chastens us as a loving parent trains and teaches a child, sometimes for correction and sometimes for prevention. It is not punishment; it is something He has to do for our benefit to conform us to the image and likeness of Christ so that we may be partakers of His holiness in eternity. There is no pleasure in chastisement, but He does it out of love, and we will come through it transformed and be displayed as His treasures in eternity. VF-2207 Hebrews 12:5-1

Writing to the Thessalonians, Paul prayed that the God of peace may wholly sanctify us upon Christ's return, and until then that He would watch over us and preserve us. We are not sinless; the flesh is at war with the Spirit, and there is the possibility we will succumb to temptation, but when we take a step back to God, He is quick to meet us. The finishing process will not be completed in our lifetimes, but those who come to know God and His ways and who keep faithing in Him are being transformed and preserved.

Not only has God saved us through the shed blood of His son Jesus Christ, He is actively in the process of changing us into His image and likeness. The process He uses is not meant to change us on the outside, but rather a lifelong catheterizing process where He gets straight to the heart. As long as we remain yielded open vessels, He will do the work that's needed for us to be able to see Him. VF-2205 Matthew 5:8

Sanctification is not an emotional response or an outward imitation of what we think holiness is; it is an operation of the Holy Spirit transforming us from the inside, which then out rays His nature. When Christlikeness shines forth on the outside, it is because it is radiating out from the changes God has made on the inside. As we yield ourselves to Him in dedication, He renews our minds and equips us for service. We will always face trench warfare and go through pressure as we continue in our faith walk because we are still a work in progress. VF-2203 Matthew 17:1-2 Romans 12:1-2 2Corinthians 3:17-18

Moving into the New Testament, we learn that we cannot apply a singular definition to holiness and sanctification. In Jesus' high priestly prayer, we see that sanctification is not something we endeavor to do, but rather a passive act on our part; something that is initiated by God to conform us to the image and likeness of Christ as we are faithing in Him.

When you are doing something for God, the way you do it is more important than getting the job done. You do it His way because the instruction of the Lord is holy. When David first tried to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem, it was not according to God's instruction and resulted in the death of Uzza for touching the Ark. When David put God first and followed His instructions and preparations and offered sacrifices, fear was replaced by joy, and the Ark was brought into Jerusalem.

In the midst of laying out God's instructions to His people, there is the story of an incident God used to make an example. The son of an Israelitish woman was condemned to death for cursing the name of God. God made it clear that He would not tolerate blasphemy; He demands respect. Failing to recognize that God is who He says He is, especially when we have His presence with us, is like a knife piercing His heart. VF-2200 Leviticus 24:10-23

In the two events of God providing water from the rock, Moses obeyed God's instructions the first time, but disobeyed the second time and wrested God's word with severe consequences. This obedience and disobedience illustrates a dimension of understanding holiness and sanctification. God doesn't want us to treat His words casually; His word is holy. Looking at holiness and sanctification, our running to the voice of the Sayer is a stepping stone in God's direction. If our ears are tuned to the holy, we will be running to His word.

Rather than reading it as a set of rules in legalism, the bird's eye view approach allows us to see what God is calling "holy": that which is of Him, pleasing to Him, and set apart for the purpose of worship to Him versus that which God is calling "common," profane, pagan, and not of Him.

Sanctification is not the act or process of justification; it is the activity of the presence of God to change us into His image and likeness. VF-2196

Studying grammar, particularly antonyms like "common" and "profane", helps us better understand the original meanings of the Hebrew words related to holiness and sanctification. We have a language problem, where holiness is made synonymous with perfection; it cannot mean perfection or sinlessness except when speaking of God and His attributes. When God declares people holy, they are set apart and dedicated, not perfect. VF-2195 Leviticus 21:1-15

What the Bible means by the word "sanctification" is difficult to understand in English because different streams of words were used simultaneously to translate these concepts. It is faulty understanding and bad theology that equate holiness with morality or perfection; the meaning in the original languages was to be set apart by God for His purposes. Rightly understood, it is not something we can do to ourselves but rather something done to us by the Holy Spirit. VF-2192

To understand the importance of the Resurrection and why it is worth following the proofs, there must first be an acknowledgement of our fallen condition, in need of divine pardon, and a recognition of our immortality. If Christ is not risen, our preaching, first, is vain. Our faith and hope of forgiveness and resurrection are also in vain.

When doing a study on the Resurrection and trying to get information, there are a few things we must do as historians. First, use a method that has been tried and proven, that we know has the ability to unearth. Next, detach from bias. Finally, account for what we know as certain history. Many critics apply different criteria for looking at Scripture than they would for looking at any other field of study, leading to biased conclusions. An honest historian's approach to the evidence available indicates the scriptural records are valid history.

The beginning of a series for the sake of two people who are dear friends but far from the knowledge of God. Bad experiences with the church at large or a "brand" of Christianity cause many to be turned off on the church. There is corruption in all of humanity, so we should not ignore God because of that. A look at the church history surrounding Easter and at the traditions of men becoming dogma show why we should not simply trust the institution, but we can still trust God.

If the Resurrection of Christ really happened, it is the most important event in history. Those who are skeptical and think there are too many discrepancies in the accounts should take a closer look. There are common denominators to all of the accounts and many witnesses in the gospel records. Each writer's focus is different, so the differences in the details are not as inconsistent as they first seem. VF-2283

The evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus Christ cannot be ignored and if you look at it honestly it is life-changing. The earliest teachings of the Resurrection were from eyewitnesses of a factual event, not emotive feelings. Some of the most convincing evidence comes from the Apostle Paul, who had no reason to tell this story if it was not true. The disciples were changed by the Resurrection, and they were willing to die for preaching it. VF-2544 Acts 2

In seeking the truth that is revealed in Jesus Christ, God creates famine to give us opportunities of faith and opportunities of failure. Just like Abram, we often choose to leave the place that God has called us to because we focus on the seen circumstance of famine rather than trusting God and relying upon His word of promise. Instead of chastising us for getting off track, God uses our mistakes and missteps to lead us back to where we started: the place of sacrifice. VF-2061 Genesis 13

After 21 years of ministry, Pastor Scott reflects on her calling and the lessons that have left an imprint on her soul. One of which is the blessing of being called by God and being struck by a famine: the famine of feeling completely inadequate to answer God's call, and the challenges that He gives for ever-increasing faith. These are God's way of testing us to see if we will rely on Him to guide us in the way in which we should go. VF-2539 Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

The book of Isaiah has ample archaeological evidence to support its authenticity and history corroborates many of its prophecies. Isaiah was a different type of prophet. God told him to prophesy against Judah and other nations for their sins, but He also told him they would not listen.

History shows us that God kept His word. While there is very little hope in the book of Amos, there is a promise that in a future time, the scattered people of Israel will be brought back and Christ will dwell in their midst.

The prophecy of Joel describes a famine and devastation sent by God to wake the people up and bring them to repentance. It affected every aspect of life, from the livestock to the crops that made the offerings and worship practices possible. While Joel's prophecy speaks to the people in his day, it also speaks to us in the present who are living in a very evil time. It also speaks of the future when divine retribution will be meted out on "the day of the Lord." Although the circumstances described are very bleak, the message is of grace clear: there's still time to turn back to God. VF-2541 Joel

Elijah was a messenger of God and the story of his own life of faith is a message for us today. During the evil rule of King Ahab and Jezebel, Elijah had great victories like defeating the priests of Baal and despite that victory he ran away in fear wanting to die soon after. Elijah was not perfect, but his devotion to God did not waver and when he faltered, God restored him and continued to use him. Elijah learned that God is not only in the incredible and powerful events, but He is in the small things revealed to us along the way. Elijah's experiences teach that despite our failures; God will continue to work with us if we trust in Him. 1 Kings VF-2535

Micah paints a gloomy picture of the society in his day: the rulers demanded gifts, the judges accepted bribes, and the powerful dictated what they desired. On top of that he observed a blatant disrespect for God, the family unity, and for the dignity of life and living. He warned the people of their terrible fate and yet, right in the middle of gloom and doom he spoke a word of encouragement: God will not abandon His people. Although God did turn His back, He never completely abandoned the people in Micah's day. How much more us if we continue to trust Him and keep our eyes fixed on Him?!

God was giving them a warning so that they might turn back to Him. We need to listen to that warning today. VF-2344 Micah 6:9-16

In Micah 6, God brings His grievance against the people almost as if He is making a legal case. He reminds them of His past deliverances and His goodness to them, but they responded with the wrong attitude. In the face of coming judgment, God still has his hand on His chosen ones, and He is in control. Will you trust Him? VF-2343 Micah 6:1-8

Micah paints a prophetic portrait of Christ as eternal, everlasting, God incarnate, and ruler, both when He came in the flesh, and when He returns to rule over the whole earth in last days, at the end of time. Although the picture that Micah paints is one of doom and calamity, we should take comfort in the knowledge that God has a plan for the future, and heed Micah's warning by putting away our false worship and turning back to God while we're still living in a dispensation of God's forgiveness, mercy and grace.

Micah juxtaposes the leaders during his time with the Lord of Hosts during the time God establishes His kingdom on earth. While there will be people that will resist the rule of Jesus Christ in His 1000-year reign, there will be people from many nations who will learn from Him and walk in His paths, regardless of their religious background. During Christ's reign, there will be universal peace, universal religion, and universal prosperity. We can trust God. He will help us, and He will not forget us nor abandon His promises.

The prophecies of Micah were addressed to a nation consumed with idolatry and false worship. This is not just a problem of the past, it's been a problem since the beginning of time, and it's reflective of the moral, social, and spiritual decline we're seeing in America today. However, it's not all gloom and doom. We're at a turning point, and the prophecies of Micah give us tremendous hope for the future if we turn back to our Judeo-Christian moorings.

Do not take your salvation for granted and get complacent lest you engage in spiritual pride. It takes vigilance to stay by the stuff. In the Old Testament the children of Israel drifted away repeatedly and much of the church in America today has departed from the ways of God, but there is still time to return to Him. He promises a new covenant in which He will put His law in our hearts and forgive our iniquity. To those who take Him at His word and trust Him, He will be merciful. VF-2432

The rejection of Christ by the Jews was part of that prophecy, as well as the grace extended to the gentiles who can hear His word.

A lot of churches today present the message of "special sinners" or a "special way of salvation" and neither one of those is biblical. None of us are born to desire God, and none of us have "special sins." We're all born with a dark heart. We're all sinners in need of salvation. We cannot save ourselves, and we must recognize that salvation doesn't come by doing good deeds, or hearing words from a minister that make us "feel good." It comes by hearing the words of faith.

There were also many people who only followed Jesus for self-serving reasons. The rejection of Christ was foretold by God and there are still many people today who will not hear.

God used a young man named Elihu to deliver His message of chastening, not punishment to Job. Elihu characterizes the Spirit-filled person: he was his own character, not a copycat; humble, but firm; answering to God, not man; and concerned about God’s righteousness, not Job’s. Elihu’s message primed the pump for God to speak directly to Job, bringing about conviction. Through God’s amazing grace and love, Job was able to turn from self-back to God. VF-2110 Job 32-42

This message lays the foundation for understanding the dimensions of the Holy Spirit's personality. Part of His work is to enlighten our minds about spiritual things, conforming us to the image and likeness of Christ. There is a danger of grieving, extinguishing, or quenching what God is doing by willingly ignoring the conviction that comes by the Holy Spirit. He is a person; holy and eternal, just like the Father and the Son; and He cares about us, helps us, and guides us. VF-2109

Paul makes four categories of mankind: the natural man, babes in Christ, carnal believers, and spiritual Christians. The natural man cannot hear the message; the babe in Christ grows, feeding on the sincere milk of the Word; carnal believers are never confronted with facing themselves, leaving them in a state of arrested spiritual development; and spiritual Christians constantly feed on the Word, both milk and meat. Some marks of carnality are envying, strife, and divisions, which are in stark contrast with the marks of spirituality: the radiating of God's love in us, hand in hand with faith.

The difference between a "believer" and a Christian is the presence and power of God's Spirit working in those following Christ. Standing by a fire will warm a person up, but looking at it from afar will not. Likewise, we need the presence of God to transform us from the inside, or else the change will not last. The mark of salvation is our reaction to the message of the Gospel. After the Resurrection, the two messages most needed by the church world are Repent (metanoia) and Love one another.

Like those in Corinth, many churches today have elevated spiritual gifts, especially speaking in tongues, as the mark of salvation causing contention and disunity in the body. Paul corrects this by clarifying that there are diversities of gifts, distributed by the Holy Spirit for the edifying of the church. Some, not all, have particular gifts, including speaking in tongues. All His children have some gift for the building up of the body. The greatest gift is the love He poured out on our hearts and without that we have nothing. VF-2106 1Corinthians 12-14

The error of many churches has been to become enamored with the speaking of tongues, treating that as the mark of salvation and judging those that do not demonstrate what they think is the most important spiritual gift. However, the gifts of the Holy Spirit also include knowledge, wisdom, discernment, musical talent, or the ability to learn new things. These gifts are poured out to all that faithe in His word - all flesh, regardless of age, class, gender, or any other distinctions. All the gifts are for the building up of the body of Christ.

The are many traditions regarding the baptism of the Holy Spirit that can be debunked by a closer look at the scriptures. Nowhere in the Bible is speaking in tongues a prerequisite mark of salvation, but rather, the instances in the book of Acts were a mark of the unifying work through the Spirit of God, grafting in the Gentiles and the Samaritans. We are all part of the Body of Christ, and a diversity of gifts are given to build up that body; the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. We are to rejoice in the fact that God has gifted us, and we are not to neglect that gift. VF-2104 Acts, 1Corinthians 12:1-14

Many denominations have erroneous traditions about what it means to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. The scriptures reveal that not all who received the Spirit spoke with tongues, but all were quickened with the equipping to hear the Word of God and to proclaim it. The Father sent a Comforter, one alongside the called, to His church, the out-called ones. The mark of a Christian is the out-raying of God's nature in us, which is the fruit of the Spirit, not the crazy acts people use to try to prove they have the gifts of the Spirit. VF-2103

The word "baptism" is a Greek word (from "bapto") that indicates a dipping into. It is used in four ways in the New Testament: the baptism of John the Baptist, the baptism of Christ's suffering, the baptism of believers, and the baptism in the Holy Spirit. John's baptism unto repentance and confession represented a bridge between the old way of the Law and the prophets and the new way of the Gospel. Jesus instructs his followers to make disciples, baptizing them and then continuing to teach them. The pattern in the New Testament is the hearing of the Gospel followed by baptism. VF-2102

It is the work of the Holy Spirit to “reprove” sin, which is to expose sin and to set it right by bringing us to repentance, specifically to turn us from the sin of failing to recognizing Christ. The ability both to proclaim the word and to receive are dependent on the presence of God’s Spirit in us, and once the seed is planted it will produce change in us. We are warned not to neglect the gift we are given and not to grieve the Spirit. VF-2101 Acts 2

When Nehemiah returned to Jerusalem, he found that the people had slipped from God’s ways to their own ways, forsaking the house of God. Standing on scripture and history, Nehemiah’s reformations restored the sanctity of God’s house, service in the temple, submission to the Sabbath and the standards of God. Today’s church needs the same reformation to return back to God’s ways and stand on His word. VF-2019 Nehemiah 13:4-31

Acting on a principle that God’s house will be respected, Nehemiah threw out the enemy who was living in God’s house. We show respect for God’s house today by 1) recognizing that what we do for God and the way we do it matters more than just getting a job done, and 2) leaving behind our baggage of how things “ought” to be done in God’s house. These ideas will not be tolerated; they will be thrown out. VF-2017 Nehemiah 13:1-9

Confusion surrounding the emergence and development of Christianity has fueled a great deal of tension between Jews and Christians in our present time. A deep dive into the book of Acts helps us to fill in the gaps and shed light on the early Christian church which in its genesis was made up of Jewish converts who came to view Christ as the Messiah.

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the epicenter of Christianity. Jesus foretold of His Death and Resurrection on the 3rd day. There are internal evidences that the New Testament writers were honest reporters of Christ’s scourging and crucifixion, His burial, and His appearances after the Resurrection. Because He is risen, we have the promise of life eternal. VF-2494

Understanding why Jesus had to die has many nuances that can be found throughout the Bible. The consequence for our fallen, sin-stained condition is death, but Jesus died as a substitute sacrifice in our place. We escape the curse of the law through His finished work at the cross and the barrier between us and God is gone. We are still sinners, but those who are in Christ will not receive God’s wrath.

A careful study of God’s covenants shows us that God’s chosen people are not limited to one singular group of people called “Jews.” The history of God’s chosen people shows us that no one has ever kept His covenant.

The congressional bill H.R. 6090 references the IHRA definition of anti-Semitism, which alludes to the words of Jesus Christ as anti-Semitic. That is impossible because Jesus was a Jew. He criticized the religious leaders of Israel for their failure to teach and lead the people. They rejected Him because they saw Him as a threat to their power. The church of today needs to speak the truth from the Bible without fear or shame and not be intimidated by critics that haven’t read the Bible. VF-2490

There is no scripture to support the worship of Mary, or the doctrine of the immaculate conception of Mary which paints her as without original sin.

A look at church history shows that the date of December 25th came out of pagan traditions that had nothing to do with Christ. The birth of Christ was the fulfillment of a set time. A study of the Old Testament shows there are no feasts or set times that occur in the month of December. In order to fulfill the prophecy of God’s set time, Christ had to be born in September. A study of scripture, secular history and astronomical events provide evidence of a September birth and provide a window of time for the year it occurred. VF-2485

A look at Reuben shows God's grace to fallen man. While the promise passed to another, his position as firstborn was never erased. We, like Reuben, deserve to die for our sins, but because of Christ's status and for our faith we become co-heirs, receiving the promise, position, and property - Christ in us, the hope of glory.

This is the 2nd consecutive message on laying the foundation to teach on the 144,000 in Revelation. In the Old Testament, God, through His prophets, foretold of the separation of Israel and Judah. Tracing the northern tribes of Israel through the Bible shows that they were not lost but scattered across the globe, and in the end times He will reunite them with Judah, fulfilling the prophecy in Revelation. The big picture shows how God will make good on His word and, unlike these people, we don’t have to wait to be unified. We are one in Christ, and He is our refuge from the wrath to come.

This is a basic message on what it means to be a Christian, laying a foundation for deeper studies into Revelation. Today’s common terms of “accepting” or “receiving” Christ do not convey their root meanings of grasping and holding on to Him. Being a Christian is not something we are born into, that is done by our own will, or by others wanting it for us. God is the initiator of our salvation. It is His regeneration in us that makes us new creatures in Christ. VF-2050 John 3:1-10

Each of the seven churches suffered from something that had the power to hinder them from overcoming. As believers, we face the same things in a life-long battle for our soul, and for the church: a wrestling match with the world, the flesh, and the devil. Overcoming isn’t easy, but if we focus on Christ, the giver, the one who already overcame the world, the flesh, and the works of the devil, none of these things will separate us from Him who's given us the key to overcoming, and that is by simple faith in Him.

The seven churches of Asia have modern significance beyond their representation as church ages. The church of Ephesus is the example of mechanical Christianity, where the love for Christ has been lost. The exhortation to the church is to remember from where you have fallen, change your mind (metanoia), and do your first works of faith again. We are warned by the example of Ephesus, which did not go back to its first works and thereby had its candlestick removed. Meditating on Psalm 51 provides a clear path to metanoia and regaining that love.

When studying prophecy and eschatology, there are methods of approach to understand the meanings of scripture. There are criteria to consider such as: whether the text is literal, historical context, grammatical context, the objective of a passage, the intent of what is being expressed, things that are symbols or symbolic, and whether a passage is allegorical or parabolic. If these methods are followed, there may still be shades of difference in interpretations; but our understanding of scripture will be very close to the meaning God intended. VF-2436

When people interpret end times prophecy, they tend to treat it as something sensational and tantalizing. But it is simple: what God designed in the beginning will be in the end. There are still many events that need to come to pass before the end. It is important to study the word so that we do not fall for crazy interpretations. VF-2434 Revelation 17 & 18

Before one can understand who the great whore is in the book of Revelation, a lot of historical premise must be set from the book of Genesis. Learning about Nimrod, Babel, the tower of Babel, and Babylon sets the stage for understanding its symbolic meaning in the book of Revelation as it is referenced in connection with “the great whore.” VF-2433 Revelation 17 & 18

The Church of England has been in the news for labeling God “gender neutral.” What a tragedy considering this church’s rich history, and how completely blasphemous! We don’t need to change scripture. The doctrine of the Holy Spirit teaches us that God made provision for all His children when He gave the third person of the Godhead which is neutral, meaning He can inhabit both men and women.

The tabernacle was only meant to be temporary. Ultimately, the shadow would be replaced by the substance, Christ, and the old covenant would be replaced by a new one. VF-2381

After the devastating Los Angeles fires, we must be even more vigilant to protect our calling. That starts with being aware of the devil’s methods with us. They are subtle, and designed to fill us with fear, doubt, and everything that is the antithesis of faith. The only hope we have is to put on the whole armor of God and be ready for the enemy from head to toe. If we focus on building our community of believers back up to be strong in the Lord through the Spirit of God, there will be an actual revolution in the state of California. VF-2480 Ephesians 6

Jude concludes his letter with a doxology that is essentially in the form of a prayer in the Greek. He emphasizes that when we are in peril of being shipwrecked in our faith by false teachers, Christ has the power to keep His focus on us as a shepherd watches over a flock, standing us up again firmly before Him when we stumble in our walk. Because Christ has washed us in His blood, He can present us blameless before the Lord, and we will have the privilege of being received with joy into the Lord's presence if we keep on faithing and contending for the faith.

Contrary to numerous poor translations, Jude is not instructing the saints to go out and try to "win souls". He is telling us to have mercy on those doubters who were already exposed to God's Word, but have listened to the creeps.

As we wait on the mercy of the Lord unto eternal life, have mercy on these, hating the filth of their defiled state without hating them. VF-2153 Jude1:22-23

In Jude's instructions for how to contend for the faith, we are told to keep ourselves in God's love to us. The natural man cannot do this, thinking that God is always against him. The spiritual person understands we have fallen short of the mark, but God has gifted His forgiveness of sins to us. Our desire to please Him and to know Him better through the rhemas builds up the relationship, which is further cemented by our gratitude towards Him and our attitude towards God and the things of God.

In a unique style, Jude calls to memory the saying that there will be mockers of God in the last days. These mockers have a childish behavior towards the things of God, their focus is egocentric, and they cause divisions in the body of Christ that should be united. In contrast, the faithful minister has a singular focus to bring forth the Word of God, the faithful listeners hear it, and in so doing, both build up the body of Christ. Jude’s admonition is a clarion call to the faithful: ignore the mockers, keep the focus and keep the faith. VF-2149 Jude 1:17-19

Jude points out from an apocryphal source that Enoch spoke and prophesied of these ungodly people who creep into the church and pervert the message of the gospel. They preach a doctrine of no consequences for our actions rather than no ultimate condemnation to those in Christ. We are frail, filthy sinners, but we are saved by grace from God’s wrath because Jesus paid the price for us. Jude’s examples out of the Old Testament and future prophecy show there are always consequences for those who deliberately defy God. VF-2148 Jude 1:14-15

In every generation there are those who creep into the church and engage in the gainsaying of Korah: coming against the Word of God. Korah, a close relative to Moses, was unwilling to face Moses directly. Instead, he spread his disgruntlements to others, convincing men of renown to outnumber and rise up against the man of God. His perspective was completely warped, his path was marked with egregious lies, and he treated the position he was specially chosen to do as menial and trivial. As a warning to the church in every age, Jude highlights Korah last; a stark reminder that God will judge the rebellious. This is why we are to keep ourselves in the love of God and keep contending for the faith. VF-2146 Jude 1:11

Pastor speaks about the most abused four-letter word; Love. The genesis of Love is seeded in God. God’s nature cannot be manufactured. God wants us to love each other as He loves us. The main benefactor is for God to be glorified. When the scripture resides in your nature, it is the mark of growth. VF-1819 1Corinthians 13

The body of Christ is supposed to be knit together in love, not ripped apart. Without being knit together in Christ’s love, the church cannot survive. Paul addressed the Colossians with pastoral concern, reminding them to focus back on Christ and to be knit together in the agape love of God. When the problems come, this love of God through Christ should be our common bond. Christ is the unifying force.

Jesus has given us power of attorney to act on His behalf, using His name. So why have our prayers become powerless? Are we just uttering words when we finish our prayers, “in Jesus’ name”? Or are we understanding the power of what we’re tapping into? The difference between the two is quite radical. When we pray in our own strength and in our own flesh, we become powerless. But when we connect our thoughts in prayer with everything we know about Jesus and the actions He has already made good on, we can begin to tap into the power and exercise the authority we have in Jesus’ name.

Our present-day understanding of the words “testimony” and “witness” is not valid. Going back to the Pentateuch, the earliest references to the words, they always represent something other than a personal testimony. Using the types and shadows of the Tabernacle, pointing to Christ, we see the testimony is to glorify God, not to take our sins off the cross to be paraded.

There is nothing impossible for God. Through 15 years in the pastorate and the years of ministry before that, people have ridiculed and laughed with doubt and disbelief. Just like Abraham and Sarah could look at the gift of His laughter in their son Isaac, we can look back on 15 years and celebrate God's power to do anything.

Great error comes from taking text out of context. A turning point occurs in Matthew's gospel as Jesus starts speaking to the multitudes in parables after His rejection.

The Lord is our banner: He has a plan, He is with us, He will fight for us, and the battle is the Lord's.

God disarmed our spiritual foes at the cross! That doesn’t mean that they're powerless, but rather that all of the attempts to prevent Christ from going to the cross were thwarted. And as Christ was victorious, so are we! VF-2290 Colossians 2:19

The sin and trespass offerings were God’s dispensation in the Old Testament to address the people’s fallen condition, our need for purification, and the individual acts of wrongdoing that are the fruit of this condition. But as with all the other offerings, they were shadows and types pointing to Christ. God had Christ in mind from the beginning, and because of His sacrifice, we have a new dispensation if we trust in Him and the efficacy of His finished work. VF-2289 Colossians 2:14, Leviticus 4

The peace offering symbolized God's provision for mankind to have communion and fellowship with Him. It had to come after the burnt and meal offerings so that we could first understand what Christ had to do before we could even have fellowship with God. Most people do not have the mindset of the peace offering when they give, thinking they have no responsibilities; it gives God joy when we willingly stay to have communion with Him after we've done our stewardship duties.

Looking at the symbolism of the meat offering helps us to understand the “how” of Colossians 2:14: how Christ blotted out the handwriting of ordinances and nailed them to His cross, and how we being in Christ’s finished work are no longer under the law but free in Christ, and free to worship Him!

The Old and New Testaments have to be understood as one continuous narrative of God's unfolding plan of redemption for fallen humanity. There are many shadows and types that point to Christ and reveal the order in which things had to happen for us to be redeemed.

No outward sign, like that of circumcision, can fix you if your heart is not close to God. In the Old Testament circumcision was intended to be a sign of the covenant with God, but even then, God made it clear His focus was on the heart. Christ has already accomplished this act of circumcision in the inner man of the Christian, freeing us and conforming us to His covenant perfectly, as only He can. Why would we need to add to what He has done in us? Christ set us free. VF-2282 Colossians 2:11

Colossians 2:6 is the perfect text to show us that the modern-day evangelist’s altar call, inviting us to “receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior” is actually quite blasphemous! Treating this passage correctly, the difference is in the details.

The body of Christ is supposed to be knit together in love, not ripped apart. Without being knit together in Christ’s love, the church cannot survive. Paul addressed the Colossians with pastoral concern, reminding them to focus back on Christ and to be knit together in the agape love of God. When the problems come, this love of God through Christ should be our common bond. Christ is the unifying force.

The devil and his minions usually stick to a repeated pattern of what has worked before, attacking our weak points. He appears as an angel of light, a counterfeit bringing false teaching and self-rationalization. The counterattack is the remedy God provided in Christ: redemption through His blood and the overcoming by God's strength. VF-2176 2 Corinthians 11:3-15

To move forward in our study of heaven and hell, we need to look at Christ's death and resurrection. This presumes there was a Jesus who lived, of which there is abundant secular proof. Christ was the substitute offering that allows us to go to heaven, but we get a glimpse of hell on earth at Christ's death. There we see separation, darkness and terror, a clear demonstration of God's power, a clear demonstration of God's intent, and a picture of what hell will be like. VF-2227 Matthew 27:45-54

To understand what "hell" means in the New Testament, we have to look at the original Greek words, two of which are "Gehenna" and "Hades."

The place of punishment is eternal, but eventually all will be seen. VF-2225 Matthew 16:15-19

Like sanctification, the subject of heaven and hell becomes clearer as you dig into it. If we are to rise with Christ, we must seek the things that are above. Hell is a place, and it is not homogenized. Similarly, heaven is a place where we will continue to learn directly from the Master in the city not made with hands. VF-2212 Colossians 3:1

As an introduction to the subject of heaven and hell, we must be careful about what we “think” we know. Some common misconceptions are addressed, and the question is answered, “What exactly does God require of us to make it in?” Luke 16:19-31

Matthew's gospel was written primarily to a Jewish audience, so he is careful in how he uses the name of God. He focuses on the kingdom of heaven, emphasizing who the king is, what His kingdom is about, and who will enter the kingdom. We are told to seek His kingdom and His righteousness first. He must be our priority above all else, and if we trust in Him, He will take care of our needs. Matthew 6:24-34 VF-2222

There is a battle for your soul, and it is dangerous to fail to understand the enemy is always there. A target is on your back when you open your mouth and make a commitment. When our committedness or our attitude towards our commitment changes, we open up the door for the devil to pick us off. We must treat Christ as our fort, our place of resistance, and recognize that putting on the full armor of God means putting on Christ, who fortifies us from the inside. When we mess up, we need to get up again and learn from the last time. VF-2245 Ephesians 6:10-17

God loves His children, but His wrath is provoked when people, in rebellion, fail to acknowledge Him. There are consequences to sin. We were all children of disobedience, but Christ bore the wrath that was due us, and we are covered when we put our trust in Him. The outpouring of God's wrath lets us know that our trust is not in vain, and His word will stand. Who Baked the Cake?

It is difficult to forgive others if we fail to understand how much God has forgiven us. Unwillingness to forgive others drives a wedge between us and God and begins to close off the channel of communication with Him.

Yom Kippur, known in the English as the Day of Atonement was an Old Testament system that provided covering for the people’s sin for the past year. This system failed because people need more than a covering.

Onesimus put distance between his master, Philemon, and himself. This disobedience created a debt that he had no way of repaying. Through contact with Paul, Onesimus finally went back and became a fellow laborer. The hardest thing to do sometimes is to go back to the place where you failed and start over. Onesimus reminds us there is always a way home. Like the prodigal, there is always enough bread in the Father's house to spare, because we all stand in the same place: sinners being saved by grace.

A lot of churches today present the message of “special sinners” or a “special way of salvation” and neither one of those is biblical. None of us are born to desire God, and none of us have “special sins.” We’re all born with a dark heart. We’re all sinners in need of salvation. We cannot save ourselves, and we must recognize that salvation doesn’t come by doing good deeds, or hearing words from a minister that make us “feel good.” It comes by hearing the words of faith.

In the book of Romans, Paul looks to the prophet Isaiah’s declaration about the children of Israel and proclaims that a remnant shall be saved, but not all. He addresses Jews that thought their salvation was automatic. They could not accept that Christ was the end of the law and that the gentiles could be saved without it. God wants trust, not perfection and for that trust there is eternal salvation through Him. VF-2428

Many of Abraham’s seed believed they didn’t need salvation because they had the covenants, the promises, and the law. Although they were anticipating a Messiah, they rejected Christ and everything He had to say. Paul makes it clear as to “why” in the book of Romans: not all Israel is of Israel. Some of them had the capacity to respond; many did not. The same is true today, and until God gives the capacity, no one can receive. VF-2426

Not all the Jews rejected Christ, but many of the spiritual leaders were against Him because they had no spiritual discernment and they perceived Him as a threat to their position. There were also many people who only followed Jesus for self-serving reasons. The rejection of Christ was foretold by God and there are still many people today who will not hear. The Apostle Paul is an example of one called by God, who rejected Christ until God turned him around. In the end, God will have those He desires to have whether Jew or Gentile. John 1:11 VF-2425

We are not sinless; the flesh is at war with the Spirit, and there is the possibility we will succumb to temptation, but when we take a step back to God, He is quick to meet us. The finishing process will not be completed in our lifetimes, but those who come to know God and His ways and who keep faithing in Him are being transformed and preserved. VF-2206 1Thessalonians 5:23

Not only has God saved us through the shed blood of His son Jesus Christ, He is actively in the process of changing us into His image and likeness. The process He uses is not meant to change us on the outside, but rather a lifelong catheterizing process where He gets straight to the heart. As long as we remain yielded open vessels, He will do the work that’s needed for us to be able to see Him. VF-2205 Matthew 5:8

We don't find God; He chose us from among those He didn’t choose before the world was formed. The purpose of the choice is that we could be holy and without blame when we finally come before Him in love. Becoming holy and blameless before Him is not a change we make in ourselves. He makes that change in us for our faith. VF-2204 Ephesians 1:4

Sanctification is not an emotional response or an outward imitation of what we think holiness is; it is an operation of the Holy Spirit transforming us from the inside, which then out rays His nature. When Christlikeness shines forth on the outside, it is because it is radiating out from the changes God has made on the inside. As we yield ourselves to Him in dedication, He renews our minds and equips us for service. We will always face trench warfare and go through pressure as we continue in our faith walk because we are still a work in progress. VF-2203 Matthew 17:1-2, Romans 12:1-2, 2Corinthians 3:17-18

Moving into the New Testament, we learn that we cannot apply a singular definition to holiness and sanctification. In Jesus' high priestly prayer, we see that sanctification is not something we endeavor to do, but rather a passive act on our part; something that is initiated by God to conform us to the image and likeness of Christ as we are faithing in Him.

When you are doing something for God, the way you do it is more important than getting the job done. You do it His way because the instruction of the Lord is holy. When David first tried to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem, it was not according to God's instruction and resulted in the death of Uzza for touching the Ark. When David put God first and followed His instructions and preparations and offered sacrifices, fear was replaced by joy, and the Ark was brought into Jerusalem.

In the midst of laying out God's instructions to His people, there is the story of an incident God used to make an example. The son of an Israelitish woman was condemned to death for cursing the name of God. God made it clear that He would not tolerate blasphemy; He demands respect.

In the two events of God providing water from the rock, Moses obeyed God's instructions the first time, but disobeyed the second time and wrested God's word with severe consequences. This obedience and disobedience illustrates a dimension of understanding holiness and sanctification. God doesn't want us to treat His words casually; His word is holy. Looking at holiness and sanctification, our running to the voice of the Sayer is a stepping stone in God's direction. If our ears are tuned to the holy, we will be running to His word.

The beginning of a series for the sake of two people who are dear friends but far from the knowledge of God. Bad experiences with the church at large or a "brand" of Christianity cause many to be turned off on the church. There is corruption in all of humanity, so we should not ignore God because of that. A look at the church history surrounding Easter and at the traditions of men becoming dogma show why we should not simply trust the institution, but we can still trust God. VF-2178

Studying grammar, particularly antonyms like "common" and "profane", helps us better understand the original meanings of the Hebrew words related to holiness and sanctification.

What the Bible means by the word "sanctification" is difficult to understand in English because different streams of words were used simultaneously to translate these concepts. It is faulty understanding and bad theology that equate holiness with morality or perfection; the meaning in the original languages was to be set apart by God for His purposes. Rightly understood, it is not something we can do to ourselves but rather something done to us by the Holy Spirit. VF-2192

Continuing the excursion on angels, it is clear that there are many references to angels through the Scriptures. The elect, un-fallen angels that remain holy and dedicated to God carry out His will, deliver messages, and give guidance and help to humans as His representatives. The evil, fallen angels report to the god of this world, satan, and bring twisted messages designed to derail us from the path of faith.

As background to the teaching Paul had to do to counter the false doctrine of angel worship, we can look to the Scriptures, especially the Pentateuch, to make sure we understand the nature and role of angels. There are different categories of sometimes seen and sometimes unseen created beings who carry out assignments from God, and some references to "the angel of the Lord" are actually a manifestation of God Himself. Ultimately, whether they are good or evil angels, they are not to be worshiped: we are to be followers of Christ. VF-2267 Colossians 1:16

Teaching on the trilogy of parables in Luke 15, focusing on the Parable of The Father. The ones that listened to Jesus tell these parables were considered the worst of the sinners. We are all prodigals having wasted the inheritance given to us - our time, money, and faith opportunities. All of us at some point have squandered that stewardship, but it's never too late to start over with God.

Although seemingly unimportant, Andrew shows us there is nothing wrong in God's eyes with playing second fiddle: the same gifts of the Spirit are given in diverse ways to build up the body of believers and glorify our Lord. Do not neglect the gift; respond to His call "come and see", because the Lord will always reveal Himself to those who seek to know Him. What are you looking for as you follow the Lord?

Commitment begins first and foremost with the activity of God in prevenient Grace. Our Act is then one of presenting ourselves on the Basis of the mercies of God. The Character of commitment is all hinged on our understanding of what the Lord has done in making us new creatures in Christ. The Demands of commitment are that we are not to be conformed to (taking the imprint of) the world, but transformed (metamorphosed) by the renewing of our minds. Our minds are renewed by reading and meditating on the Word, hearing God's Word, rightly divided, and communicating with God through our prayer life. The Effects that result from commitment are enduring changes from the inside that give our personalities a more complete expression. VF-2087 Romans 12:1-2

A study in 1st Peter focusing on the words “blessed be”. Peter was telling the saints in trial and tribulation in his day (and us today) that we are to eulogize God BECAUSE of His abundant mercy. He has given us hope, inheritance, salvation and reserved in Heaven a place for us. This pattern of eulogizing God is consistent throughout the Old and New Testaments. We are to first praise, worship and thank Him as a continual faith practice.

When doing a study on the Resurrection and trying to get information, there are a few things we must do as historians. First, use a method that has been tried and proven, that we know has the ability to unearth. Next, detach from bias. Finally, account for what we know as certain history. Many critics apply different criteria for looking at Scripture than they would for looking at any other field of study, leading to biased conclusions. An honest historian's approach to the evidence available indicates the scriptural records are valid history. Our faith is not vain: He is risen, and with the presence of Christ in our lives, we can order our lives accordingly. VF-2126

The tribes of Israel were not all carried off to the same place or all at once. There are records of invasions and migrations and we can trace the changes in the names of these groups throughout history. The northward and westward migrations led to a dominance of Europe, the formation of England, and ultimately a spreading around the world, fulfilling the prophecies of God's scattered people. All of this speaks of God's sovereignty and when everything looks lost in our eyes it's not lost in God's eyes. He's not finished with us, His people, or His plan. VF-2069

God bestowed a blessing of a prophecy on Jacob’s undeserving son, Judah: the giving or keeping of the law, and the right to rule until Shiloh comes. God’s hand was in the intricate details to make this come to pass, and to this day He’s keeping His word. His eye is on each of these children of Judah, from both the Pharez and Zarah lines, and He’s got a plan to use them in the last days.

Just as Reuben was skipped over when Jacob gave out the blessings to his sons, Simeon and Levi were skipped for the sin they committed in avenging their sister Dinah’s rape. But, God has a plan and despite their short fallings He will keep His word of promise to the children of Israel to accomplish His purpose then, today and in the last days.

This is the 2nd consecutive message on laying the foundation to teach on the 144,000 in Revelation. In the Old Testament, God, through His prophets, foretold of the separation of Israel and Judah. Tracing the northern tribes of Israel through the Bible shows that they were not lost but scattered across the globe, and in the end times He will reunite them with Judah, fulfilling the prophecy in Revelation. The big picture shows how God will make good on His word and, unlike these people, we don’t have to wait to be unified. We are one in Christ, and He is our refuge from the wrath to come. VF-2052

This is a basic message on what it means to be a Christian, laying a foundation for deeper studies into Revelation. Today’s common terms of “accepting” or “receiving” Christ do not convey their root meanings of grasping and holding on to Him. Being a Christian is not something we are born into, that is done by our own will, or by others wanting it for us. God is the initiator of our salvation. It is His regeneration in us that makes us new creatures in Christ. VF-2050 John 3:1-10

The seven churches of Asia have modern significance beyond their representation as church ages. The church of Ephesus is the example of mechanical Christianity, where the love for Christ has been lost. The exhortation to the church is to remember from where you have fallen, change your mind (metanoia), and do your first works of faith again. We are warned by the example of Ephesus, which did not go back to its first works and thereby had its candlestick removed. Meditating on Psalm 51 provides a clear path to metanoia and regaining that love.

God’s provision of grace is throughout the Bible even during the times of His wrath. In the last days of judgment on earth, He will again show his grace by providing a place of refuge for His remnant people of Israel, the 144,000 preachers of righteousness. Ironically that place will be in the land of their enemies. God’s care for his people both Jew and Gentile is evident in the grace he affords despite our failures yesterday, today or in the future.

The first discourse on the seventy weeks of years in Daniel 9. The Hebrew makes it perfectly clear that these are not seventy days or weeks, but seventy weeks of years. God is a date setter and just like He was faithful to fulfill the 70 years of bondage for His disobedient people, the rebuilding of the city, the coming of and cutting off of the Messiah, He will fulfill the things that have not yet come to pass in these 70 weeks of years.

The Church of England has been in the news for labeling God “gender neutral.” What a tragedy considering this church’s rich history, and how completely blasphemous! We don’t need to change scripture. The doctrine of the Holy Spirit teaches us that God made provision for all His children when He gave the third person of the Godhead which is neutral, meaning He can inhabit both men and women.

Since satan has been cast out of heaven and down to earth, he can now empower these beasts. Our comfort in this scary picture is that God's in control. He's got a plan that includes a definite end for this evil trinity: all three will be cast into the lake of fire. VF-2032 Revelation 12, 13

God's in control. He showed that He's in control of history by His prophecies and use of a heathen king, Cyrus, and He's also in control of your life and mine. The challenge of this message is to consider our ways. Are we striving against God's purposes, talking back to the Potter and saying “He can't with me” or, “What could I possibly do?” Or are we looking at the pattern of God's way with Cyrus and saying, “Lord, Thy will be done.

Do not neglect the gift; respond to His call "come and see", because the Lord will always reveal Himself to those who seek to know Him. What are you looking for as you follow the Lord?

Until the self is conquered, nothing can be done for the Kingdom of God. The proof of our love is in the way we give money, time, heart, and self. There is no excuse to not give: God bestowed grace on the Macedonian Christians who gave out of their deep poverty, and Christ memorialized the poor widow who gave of her substance into the treasury. These did not suffer the worst poverty of spiritual bankruptcy. Once the self is presented a living sacrifice to God, He is able to supply all we need and provide abounding grace.

When looking for an individual sitting on the throne of David, we automatically think it must be the Pharez line which is recorded in the New Testament genealogies. However, we must read the prophecy out of Jeremiah 33:17 carefully. When we look at the Zara line as well, the promise is still ongoing, and we can see God’s hand in History making all of this come to pass. The same can be seen when we look at Benjamin, and the Levites.

The line of Judah was blessed with the right to rule and to give laws, and God promised that the seed of David would always sit on a throne somewhere. That ruling line did not end with Zedekiah; Jeremiah took Zedekiah's daughters to Ireland. But research shows that this did not happen in the time of Ollam Fodhla and Tea Tephi.

God made an everlasting covenant with Abraham. He blessed him and gave him the promise of land and seed, which would go on to become a great nation. Abraham passes on his possessions and all of these promises as an inheritance to his son Isaac, and Isaac to his son Jacob/Israel. But after Jacob/Israel dies, people get confused about how this inheritance, which includes the promises of seed, land, and kings, is passed on.

The power of God is the power of salvation. The change going on inside of you… something must occur, God’s transformation in you, because the self cannot change itself. When God gives us a gift – a person i.e., Pastor Scott, who will open the scriptures and make it plain. Be a better listener…listen and know that sin is missing the mark. The call of God – begins with the foreknowledge of God – is implanted in us…Metanoia – means to change our mind. The focus of the self will not change without God placing his spirit in you and in me.

The house of God is designed to demonstrate His will, His day, His way and His work. The people of Nehemiah's day made a pledge of commitment to His House and yet even they fell away after time. This is a call to us today at Faith Center to renew and keep our commitments to the House of our God, putting Him first through our service and giving. We are enabled by God to keep our commitments when we abide in His Word, and when we do, He will never forsake us. VF-2008 Nehemiah 10:39

Through the Bible God put the gift of His Spirit in human conduits to instruct, to guide, and equip them for service. We see this with the people in Nehemiah’s day, with the 70 elders of Israel, Bezaleel, and many others throughout the Old and New Testament. God’s still placing the same Spirit in us today. It’s not something weird or mystical, but a gift which helps us to grow in the knowledge of Him. Nehemiah 9:20

God's in control. He showed that He's in control of history by His prophecies and use of a heathen king, Cyrus, and He's also in control of your life and mine. The challenge of this message is to consider our ways. Are we striving against God's purposes, talking back to the Potter and saying “He can't with me” or, “What could I possibly do?” Or are we looking at the pattern of God's way with Cyrus and saying, “Lord, Thy will be done.

Despite the quality of his character, Nehemiah was under constant attack by enemies. They used the tricks of the devil: sending emissaries from hell or close by, egregious lies, entrapment, and emotional sabotage, but that did not deter Nehemiah from the work God sent him to do. We face the same tactics of opposition in building God’s church today, but if we keep our hands to the plow, God will get the victory.

Jude continues to warn against the ones who have crept in unawares: they are a hidden danger, appearing promising, but ready to lead us astray and shipwreck our faith. The church needs to have proper moorings to avoid the judgment that will come upon these ones. Jude 1:12-15 VF-2147

There are many kinds of failure that can happen in our lives, just as there are many recorded in the Bible. If we dwell on our mistakes and never move on, they can be our downfall; but if we learn from them, look to our God, and trust in His forgiveness, they can be opportunities for faith and part of our ultimate Christian success.

There's no other way to grow in grace than to go through wilderness experiences. God's method is to draw us here, and once we’re here; He speaks to our hearts through His Word. If we're open to hear what He has to say, we will bear fruit for Him to enjoy, and looking back we will be able to sing a song of praise: praise for all the ways He has led us, having seen His faithfulness to meet our every need and His amazing grace to lead us from trouble to hope!

When we come to God in prayer with our issues, the answer that we receive may not be the one we expected or wanted. God may give and allow a thorn in the flesh to teach us humility and the lesson that, in spite of the persistent frustration caused by the thorn, God’s still the Boss. His Grace is sufficient, and just like the miracle with the loaves and the fishes, His Grace is abounding in what’s left over. VF-2075 2 Corinthians 12:1-10

Paul is addressing two groups of people, their reaction to the cross and what that reaction produces. Although both products sound static in the English, the Greek reveals both are processes. To those who have rejected Christ, the cross is moronic and has produced the process of perishing. To those who have trusted Christ, the cross is the reality of life eternal that human ability cannot obtain. While the message of the cross creates division, it is also the unifying force of the church, who has become a community of people heralding its message; it is the prototype of what we will become and the solution to all of the problems we face today. 1 Corinthians 1:18

When Jesus cursed cities that had seen His miracles and not repented, He said that it would be worse for them than for Gentiles that had not known God. Most religions have some concept of hell and eternal punishment, but we can look directly to what Christ said. In the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich man ended up in a place of separation and torment, whereas Lazarus was taken to heaven by angels. The right starting point for the Christian is not to ask how to avoid going to hell but to begin a right relationship with God, following and trusting Christ. VF-2175 Luke 16:19-31

How did the Apostle Paul go from being an enemy of Christians to defender of the faith? There would be no benefit for an enemy of the church to lie about his conversion to the faith, to preach openly and establish churches or to give them correction. After the Resurrection Jesus appeared to Paul and chose him to herald the gospel. Paul’s deep knowledge of the word lays out the basis for our hope in the Resurrection, the promise of eternal life.

We all die eventually, so we should want to know where we are going after death. Many people do not get excited about heaven because they do not have a picture in their mind of what it will look like, but the Bible does tell us what it will be like. The final chapters of Revelation describe new heavens and a new earth much like the earth was before the fall, restoring humankind to a sinless state and bringing us back into direct communion with God. If we faithe in Christ and want to be with Him, this picture should bring us joy, not doom and gloom.

All of us at some point have squandered that stewardship, but it's never too late to start over with God.

God made an everlasting covenant with Abraham. He blessed him and gave him the promise of land and seed, which would go on to become a great nation. Abraham passes on his possessions and all of these promises as an inheritance to his son Isaac, and Isaac to his son Jacob/Israel. But after Jacob/Israel dies, people get confused about how this inheritance, which includes the promises of seed, land, and kings, is passed on. A careful study of the biblical record can clear up a lot of confusion, specifically regarding the land of Israel, and who should lay claim to it. VF-2351

The Logos, the intermediary between us and God, took on a tent of human flesh to be our Kinsman Redeemer. Whatever time of year Christ was born, this is the meaning and message of the birth celebration: the inheritance we lost before we were born has been restored to us by our Kinsman Redeemer.

An admonition to not become lazy in our faith, which is a malady that none of us are immune to. The method to avoid this malady is to follow in the footsteps of those in the Old Testament such as Abram, as an example of faith and longsuffering. We are to focus on the future of our inheritance with Christ rather than the present. VF-1891 Hebrews 6:11-12

A study in 1st Peter focusing on the words “blessed be”. Peter was telling the saints in trial and tribulation in his day (and us today) that we are to eulogize God BECAUSE of His abundant mercy. He has given us hope, inheritance, salvation and reserved in Heaven a place for us. This pattern of eulogizing God is consistent throughout the Old and New Testaments. We are to first praise, worship and thank Him as a continual faith practice. VF-1736 1 Peter 1:3

One of the basic faith messages that needs to be repeated is that of the bruised reed and smoking flax that God will not break or quench. There are many examples in the Bible of nearly broken people to show how there is always someone that we can identify with no matter what we are going through. The bruised reed / smoking flax condition is terrible, but it is also terribly necessary for our growth. God taking us from victory to the lowest lows and bringing us through speaks to His care for us. VF-2071 Matthew 12:20

Each of the seven churches suffered from something that had the power to hinder them from overcoming. As believers, we face the same things in a life-long battle for our soul, and for the church: a wrestling match with the world, the flesh, and the devil. Overcoming isn’t easy, but if we focus on Christ, the giver, the one who already overcame the world, the flesh, and the works of the devil, none of these things will separate us from Him who's given us the key to overcoming, and that is by simple faith in Him.

Daisy chained to this are His titles of: Illuminator/Healer, Elevator/Comforter/Helper, Rewarder and Preserver.

Another look at the life of Jacob reveals a fresh perspective on three things: God's election, His patience and, most importantly, His transforming power. The application is that the moment you, like Jacob, articulate to God what it is you know you need to be delivered from and tell Him you won't let go until He delivers you, that's when His transforming power begins to work.

God appoints reoccurring seasons in the life of the believer. They are tied together in a set order to permanently heal us and bring us to completion in Christ. He kills our spiritual diseases (our wisdom, pride and self-righteousness) and then He heals; He tears down our idols and then builds up a sure foundation on Christ. He's with us when we weep and may even cause us to mourn our spiritual condition, but He turns our tears into an inner laughter and our mourning into dancing. VF-1867 Ecclesiastes 3:3-4

No outward sign, like that of circumcision, can fix you if your heart is not close to God.

'We cannot understand the problems of where we are without looking to history. Church history is full of examples of the traditions of men being substituted in place of the word of God and the message of salvation by faith in Christ. The Protestant Reformation sought to bring people back to the pure source of the word, but even the Protestant Church has its add-ons. Study the word and focus on your personal relationship with God. He will transform your life. VF-2279 Colossians 2:8

The first half of Colossians 1:15 declares that Christ is the image or “icon” of the invisible God. The heretical idea that Christ was merely like God and not of the same substance crept into the early church, and even today some believe Christ is only a created being. Paul makes it clear to the Colossians: Christ is the likeness and incarnate revelation of God to humankind. Colossians 1:15 VF-2264

How did the Apostle Paul go from being an enemy of Christians to defender of the faith? There would be no benefit for an enemy of the church to lie about his conversion to the faith, to preach openly and establish churches or to give them correction. After the Resurrection Jesus appeared to Paul and chose him to herald the gospel. Paul’s deep knowledge of the word lays out the basis for our hope in the Resurrection, the promise of eternal life. 1 Corinthians 15 VF-2182

When doing a study on the Resurrection and trying to get information, there are a few things we must do as historians. First, use a method that has been tried and proven, that we know has the ability to unearth. Next, detach from bias. Finally, account for what we know as certain history. Many critics apply different criteria for looking at Scripture than they would for looking at any other field of study, leading to biased conclusions. An honest historian's approach to the evidence available indicates the scriptural records are valid history. Our faith is not vain: He is risen, and with the presence of Christ in our lives, we can order our lives accordingly. VF-2126

Many fail to recognize that satan and spiritual warfare are as much a reality in our lives as God is. The devil's enmity is not against us personally, but against Christ in us. We become targets because of our faith in Christ that takes us out of the enemy's grip and starts God's transformation process in us. The devil and his minions usually stick to a repeated pattern of what has worked before, attacking our weak points. He appears as an angel of light, a counterfeit bringing false teaching and self-rationalization. The counterattack is the remedy God provided in Christ: redemption through His blood and the overcoming by God's strength. VF-2176 2 Corinthians 11:3-15

Just as eyewitnesses may see any event from different perspectives and recall different details, each of the Gospel writers has a slightly different focus in the information he presents.

In the Old Testament, in order to be made right with God, there was a temporary way into God's presence once a year on the day of atonement. This set time was reoccurring and something that God laid out as a shadow that pointed to the shed blood of Christ sufficient to cover us once and for all. His shed blood, unlike any other blood sacrifice, had and still has the power to wash and cleanse us, to forgive, to restore, to reconcile and to bring us back into communion and fellowship with God. All that's required is simple faith in His finished work. Leviticus 16

Jude concludes his letter with a doxology that is essentially in the form of a prayer in the Greek. He emphasizes that when we are in peril of being shipwrecked in our faith by false teachers, Christ has the power to keep His focus on us as a shepherd watches over a flock, standing us up again firmly before Him when we stumble in our walk. Because Christ has washed us in His blood, He can present us blameless before the Lord, and we will have the privilege of being received with joy into the Lord's presence if we keep on faithing and contending for the faith.

Writing to the Thessalonians, Paul prayed that the God of peace may wholly sanctify us upon Christ's return, and until then that He would watch over us and preserve us. We are not sinless; the flesh is at war with the Spirit, and there is the possibility we will succumb to temptation, but when we take a step back to God, He is quick to meet us. The finishing process will not be completed in our lifetimes, but those who come to know God and His ways and who keep faithing in Him are being transformed and preserved. 1Thessalonians 5:23 VF-2206

Sanctification is not an emotional response or an outward imitation of what we think holiness is; it is an operation of the Holy Spirit transforming us from the inside, which then out rays His nature. When Christlikeness shines forth on the outside, it is because it is radiating out from the changes God has made on the inside. As we yield ourselves to Him in dedication, He renews our minds and equips us for service. We will always face trench warfare and go through pressure as we continue in our faith walk because we are still a work in progress. VF-2203 Matthew 17:1-2, Romans 12:1-2, 2Corinthians 3:17-18

It is important to study the Old Testament to understand how God unfolds the revelation of Christ in the New Testament. The Lord's Passover and the exodus out of Egypt's bondage point to Christ's delivering sacrifice. Just as the children of Israel had to apply the blood of the lamb to the door to be spared from death, we must apply the shed blood of Christ to our hearts. The whole event is a template for us as we act in faith today and receive His deliverance from the bondage of sin and death. VF-2157 Exodus 12

There is no such thing as a bloodless gospel. Throughout the entire Bible record, it is by the shedding and application of blood that sins are covered. While many engage in "fig leaf" religion (attempting to make themselves righteous by their own works), they fail to recognize that great Pearl, the Precious Blood of Christ spilt. It is by His Blood that we are covered and have our approach to God. VF-2120 1 Peter 1:19

The prophecies of Micah were addressed to a nation consumed with idolatry and false worship. This is not just a problem of the past, it’s been a problem since the beginning of time, and it’s reflective of the moral, social, and spiritual decline we’re seeing in America today. However, it’s not all gloom and doom. We’re at a turning point, and the prophecies of Micah give us tremendous hope for the future if we turn back to our Judeo-Christian moorings. VF-2339 Micah 1 and 2

When Job was tested by God, he suffered great pain and loss. God was trying to teach him but he failed to understand the lesson, so God had to set him straight. We do not know everything that God knows; there is a purpose for what happens to us. God is greater than our circumstances and our understanding. He is over all, and He has got your back if you keep your focus on Him and trust Him.

The faith of a Canaanite whore, Rahab, teaches us to never judge a book by its cover! Even though she was a pagan, she knew something about the living God that most Canaanite people probably didn’t know: He alone is able to save. Simply put, this woman had heard about the power of God and all the victories He had won for the children of Israel, and she said “I want that too!” For her simple act of faith God spared her and her entire family from destruction. That one act which typifies the saving work of Christ shows us that God has not changed, and salvation is just as simple even in this day and age!

There are two types of people in God’s economy: those who serve self and those who serve God. Isaiah juxtaposes Shebna, who identified with flesh and death, with Eliakim, who put God first and whose name means “one whom God raises up.” Eliakim is a type of Christ and God fastened him as a nail in a sure place, while everything Shebna heaped upon himself was taken from him. We all need to take spiritual inventory of who we identify with and where we put our focus. VF-2324 Isaiah 22:15-25

Do we know anything about Jesus?” “How can we know its true?” And, “How reliable are the sources?” The debate about the historical Jesus Christ gets ramped up around Easter time, and in order to answer these questions, the evidence must be analyzed. Using the criterion of early evidences from 30-70 AD, eyewitnesses and the rule of immediacy, independent attestation, lack of continuity, coherence, shameful reports, and archaeological evidence, we have the tools to reach a verdict.

David wrote Psalm 63 while fleeing from his son Absalom. In this terrible circumstance, the worst part was his separation from the place of worship. Instead of lamenting the seen, David lifted up praise with his entire being to the Unseen. His only petition was for God’s presence, proclaiming the lovingkindness of God as better than life. If we praise God in the moment of distress, the “with us” God will take care of the enemies.

When we find ourselves wrestling with feelings of insufficiency, focusing on what we lack instead of what we have, there is a lesson in the account of Jesus multiplying the loaves and fishes. When we yield our little to Him, He is able to bless it, break it and multiply it, turning our insufficiency into something sufficient. Just like the disciples, we can make the mistake of forgetting the times in the past when the Lord has seen us through when we should have faith that His sufficiency will always be enough.

On the heels of every great victory comes something that plunges us back into the low place. Elijah’s life is an example. Many times he walked by faith and yet in fear he made an about face to walk by sight. The lesson is that we must put our focus on God and His will and not on our circumstance. God’s will is found in the small things, not in the big neon signs. He has a purpose and a commission for us to walk the life of faith.

There isn't a quick fix for loneliness like popular Christianity tells you: "be more friendly, adopt a pet, etc..." The Apostle Paul, Jesus and many others in the Bible are our example. They show us that 1) loneliness is the lot of every Christian and 2) our loneliness is, as F.B. Meyer says, "an opportunity for Christ to make Himself really known to you." By focusing our mind on God's word and His constant presence, He will use these times to permanently fill the void - conforming us into His image and likeness. VF-1875 2 Timothy 4

There are many kinds of failure that can happen in our lives, just as there are many recorded in the Bible. If we dwell on out mistakes and never move on, they can be our downfall; but, if we learn from them, look to God, and trust in His Forgiveness, they can be opportunities of faith and part of our ultimate Christian success.

Matthew's gospel was written primarily to a Jewish audience, so he is careful in how he uses the name of God. He focuses on the kingdom of heaven, emphasizing who the king is, what His kingdom is about, and who will enter the kingdom. We are told to seek His kingdom and His righteousness first. He must be our priority above all else, and if we trust in Him, He will take care of our needs. Matthew 6:24-34 VF-2222

Studying grammar, particularly antonyms like "common" and "profane", helps us better understand the original meanings of the Hebrew words related to holiness and sanctification. We have a language problem, where holiness is made synonymous with perfection; it cannot mean perfection or sinlessness except when speaking of God and His attributes. When God declares people holy, they are set apart and dedicated, not perfect. Leviticus 21:1-15 VF-2195

It is necessary to lay a foundation in doctrine, and then make an application in our lives. This is what the apostle Paul is doing in Romans 12. We are to yield ourselves wholly to God as a living sacrifice. From there we can truly worship God and be shaped by His wisdom and His will. This does not mean we will never deviate, bit if we yield our hearts and minds to Him, He transforms us, and there can be a fresh wave of dedication. VF-2173 Romans 12:1-2

In counterbalance to those who crept into the church and led people astray, Jude admonishes us to keep ourselves in the love of God, expectantly awaiting God’s mercy. In this message we get an incredible insight into what God’s mercy looks like, both to us and in the man-to-man relationship. We can see God’s mercy in the context that Jude intended and apply it to our own lives by staying focused on what God has done for us. In doing so we accomplish the purpose of keeping ourselves in the love of God and staying the course toward life eternal.

Every point that Jude makes in his corrective letter is to counterbalance the apostasy creeping into the church.

In a unique style, Jude calls to memory the saying that there will be mockers of God in the last days. These mockers have a childish behavior towards the things of God, their focus is egocentric, and they cause divisions in the body of Christ that should be united. In contrast, the faithful minister has a singular focus to bring forth the Word of God, the faithful listeners hear it, and in so doing, both build up the body of Christ. Jude’s admonition is a clarion call to the faithful: ignore the mockers, keep the focus and keep the faith. Jude 1:17-19 VF-2149

In every generation there are those who creep into the church and engage in the gainsaying of Korah: coming against the Word of God. Korah, a close relative to Moses, was unwilling to face Moses directly. Instead he spread his disgruntlements to others, convincing men of renown to outnumber and rise up against the man of God. His perspective was completely warped, his path was marked with egregious lies, and he treated the position he was specially chosen to do as menial and trivial. As a warning to the church in every age, Jude highlights Korah last; a stark reminder that God will judge the rebellious. This is why we are to keep ourselves in the love of God and keep contending for the faith. VF-2146 Jude 1:11 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaScott.com

Apostasy is in our nature and it can creep into the church very quickly. Jude wrote his epistle to put apostasy in check; reminding us that while God delivered His people from Egypt, He destroyed that first generation for their faithlessness. Even after the people saw God's miracles of deliverance in Egypt, they were quick to turn from Him and forgot what He had done. We need this wake-up call to be vigilant and keep contending for the faith. Jude 1:3-5, Psalm 106 VF-2141

Humility is not self-abasing, it is not an act that feeds the self, it is lowliness and takes service as the highest incentive to action. Saul lost his humility as a leader and became unusable to God because of his attitude, whereas David had a heart open to receive correction when he was confronted with his sin. A humble perspective puts things in proper order; even the lowly things have a place in God's order. VF-2133

Even a little pride can be enough to prevent growth. Pride manifests itself as presumption before God, love of human praise, inability to say "I was wrong", and a spirit that appears to possess all knowledge. God's cure for this type of disease is to listen to the corrective Spirit, to have a proper view of God, and to not have resentment towards God for rooting out pride.

Many fail to recognize that satan and spiritual warfare are as much a reality in our lives as God is. The devil's enmity is not against us personally, but against Christ in us. We become targets because of our faith in Christ that takes us out of the enemy's grip and starts God's transformation process in us. The devil and his minions usually stick to a repeated pattern of what has worked before, attacking our weak points. He appears as an angel of light, a counterfeit bringing false teaching and self-rationalization. The counterattack is the remedy God provided in Christ: redemption through His blood and the overcoming by God's strength.

The word “desperate” has two meanings in English: the etymological meaning of the hopelessness and the more modern meaning of strongly desiring. Both of these senses occur in several spiritual vignettes in the Bible of people desperate for healing from God. Christians can become hopeless, but with God all things are possible. Our strength comes from Him, and our focus should be on Him, in praise. There is no problem that God cannot fix. VF-2073

Like a skilled hunter, satan observes and considers us to make his most powerful attacks, to hinder us, to tempt us, and to take us as prey. But God has His hand on us. There is no reason why we should be under this kind of attack unless we have a part in God's kingdom. There is a battle for us, and we need to take spiritual inventory so we can see where the battle is. We cannot fight the devil in the flesh, but in unity with Christ. The battle is the Lord's.

This message is a call for spiritual inventory. Christ’s value of the human soul is far above the world and its riches, yet too often when the road gets tough we are willing to sell ourselves short of even that. No one has gained the entire world, but even if one had, it would not be sufficient to redeem a soul. Though we are born lost souls, Christ paid the price for all souls, to redeem those who faithe in Him and destroy those who didn’t. VF-2066 Psalm 49 Matthew 16:25-26

This is the 2nd consecutive message on laying the foundation to teach on the 144,000 in Revelation. In the Old Testament, God, through His prophets, foretold of the separation of Israel and Judah. Tracing the northern tribes of Israel through the Bible shows that they were not lost but scattered across the globe, and in the end times He will reunite them with Judah, fulfilling the prophecy in Revelation. The big picture shows how God will make good on His word and, unlike these people, we don’t have to wait to be unified. We are one in Christ, and He is our refuge from the wrath to come.

Despite the quality of his character, Nehemiah was under constant attack by enemies. They used the tricks of the devil: sending emissaries from hell or close by, egregious lies, entrapment, and emotional sabotage, but that did not deter Nehemiah from the work God sent him to do. We face the same tactics of opposition in building God’s church today, but if we keep our hands to the plow, God will get the victory.

It is a mistake to assume the disciples were the only witness of the risen Christ. Such an assumption leaves a big gap in explaining the vast spread of Christianity in such a short period of time. A careful reading of the book of Acts shows us that there were many more witnesses whose preaching was consistently focused on one thing: the risen Christ and the power of His Resurrection.

The cross cannot remain an event of the past; without the cross, there would be no resurrection. We can either flee from the cross or embrace it as the means of a slow death of our old nature. Christ's death on His cross brought an end to the jurisdiction of the Law. We have union with Christ in death, resurrection, and ascension when we take up our own cross. The cross is where everything begins to be clear about working out our salvation in Christ.   VF-2164

Jude points out from an apocryphal source that Enoch spoke and prophesied of these ungodly people who creep into the church and pervert the message of the gospel.  They preach a doctrine of no consequences for our actions rather than no ultimate condemnation to those in Christ.  We are frail, filthy sinners, but we are saved by grace from God’s wrath because Jesus paid the price for us.  Jude’s examples out of the Old Testament and future prophecy show there are always consequences for those who deliberately defy God.

Our approach to salvation is not complicated, but without facing our fallen nature, we are without remedy.  From a verse that seems out of place in Psalm 34, we can see the approach to God in its full simplicity.  When we stop looking at the darkness of our circumstances and start fixing our eyes on Christ and what He has done for us, we are lifted up and made radiant. No matter what the world throws our way, we can stand unashamed when we look to unto Him.  Psalm 34:5  VF-2121

In counterbalance to those who crept into the church and led people astray, Jude admonishes us to keep ourselves in the love of God, expectantly awaiting God’s mercy. In this message we get an incredible insight into what God’s mercy looks like, both to us and in the man-to-man relationship. We can see God’s mercy in the context that Jude intended and apply it to our own lives by staying focused on what God has done for us. In doing so we accomplish the purpose of keeping ourselves in the love of God and staying the course toward life eternal.

Just as God created all things, He has reconciled all things to Himself. That doesn’t mean that all will be saved, but rather that Christ’s sacrifice at the cross made peace, making it possible for us to become friends of God instead of enemies. From that moment on, a change began to occur in those who hear and respond. This change is not merely a disposition of an individual, nor their legal relationship to God, but a total state of his or her life! Colossians 1:20 VF-2272

In Jude's instructions for how to contend for the faith, we are told to keep ourselves in God's love to us. The natural man cannot do this, thinking that God is always against him. The spiritual person understands we have fallen short of the mark, but God has gifted His forgiveness of sins to us. Our desire to please Him and to know Him better through the rhemas builds up the relationship, which is further cemented by our gratitude towards Him and our attitude towards God and the things of God.

We are not sinless; the flesh is at war with the Spirit, and there is the possibility we will succumb to temptation, but when we take a step back to God, He is quick to meet us.

Like those in Corinth, many churches today have elevated spiritual gifts, especially speaking in tongues, as the mark of salvation causing contention and disunity in the body.  Paul corrects this by clarifying that there are diversities of gifts, distributed by the Holy Spirit for the edifying of the church. Some, not all, have particular gifts, including speaking in tongues. All His children have some gift for the building up of the body.  The greatest gift is the love He poured out on our hearts and without that we have nothing. VF-2106 1 Corinthians 12-14

Christ has broken down the barriers of the old dispensation, so now we have to learn to function as a society, in Christ. We are chosen, separated, and loved by God, so we must act like it. Paul tells us to clothe ourselves in the attributes that come from God: compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and longsuffering. Only then can we put up with one another and be a cohesive body of believers in Christ. VF-2301 Colossians 3:12-13

"The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand." First, a look at what the all things are, and then into three vignettes of God's love as seen in Christ: to the woman at the well, the woman taken in adultery and the post-betrayal Apostle Peter. With this we learn: the all things in Christ's hand funnel into the love of God and we have access to both by reaching for His hand by faith.  VF-1877  John 3:35, Matthew 11:27

The body of Christ is supposed to be knit together in love, not ripped apart. Without being knit together in Christ’s love, the church cannot survive. Paul addressed the Colossians with pastoral concern, reminding them to focus back on Christ and to be knit together in the agape love of God. When the problems come, this love of God through Christ should be our common bond. Christ is the unifying force.

Commitment begins first and foremost with the activity of God in prevenient Grace. Our Act is then one of presenting ourselves on the Basis of the mercies of God. The Character of commitment is all hinged on our understanding of what the Lord has done in making us new creatures in Christ. The Demands of commitment are that we are not to be conformed to (taking the imprint of) the world, but transformed (metamorphosed) by the renewing of our minds. Our minds are renewed by reading and meditating on the Word, hearing God's Word, rightly divided, and communicating with God through our prayer life. The Effects that result from commitment are enduring changes from the inside that give our personalities a more complete expression.  VF-2087  Romans 12:1-2

The word "baptism" is a Greek word (from "bapto") that indicates a dipping into. It is used in four ways in the New Testament: the baptism of John the Baptist, the baptism of Christ's suffering, the baptism of believers, and the baptism in the Holy Spirit. John's baptism unto repentance and confession represented a bridge between the old way of the Law and the prophets and the new way of the Gospel. Jesus instructs his followers to make disciples, baptizing them and then continuing to teach them. The pattern in the New Testament is the hearing of the Gospel followed by baptism.  VF-2102

When Jesus cursed cities that had seen His miracles and not repented, He said that it would be worse for them than for Gentiles that had not known God. Most religions have some concept of hell and eternal punishment, but we can look directly to what Christ said. In the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich man ended up in a place of separation and torment, whereas Lazarus was taken to heaven by angels. The right starting point for the Christian is not to ask how to avoid going to hell but to begin a right relationship with God, following and trusting Christ.  VF-2175  Luke 16:19-31

The difference between a "believer" and a Christian is the presence and power of God's Spirit working in those following Christ.  Standing by a fire will warm a person up, but looking at it from afar will not.  Likewise, we need the presence of God to transform us from the inside, or else the change will not last.  The mark of salvation is our reaction to the message of the Gospel.  After the Resurrection, the two messages most needed by the church world are Repent (metanoia) and Love one another.  Matthew 3:10-12  VF-2107

The seven churches of Asia have modern significance beyond their representation as church ages.  The church of Ephesus is the example of mechanical Christianity, where the love for Christ has been lost.  The exhortation to the church is to remember from where you have fallen, change your mind (metanoia), and do your first works of faith again.  We are warned by the example of Ephesus, which did not go back to its first works and thereby had its candlestick removed.  Meditating on Psalm 51 provides a clear path to metanoia and regaining that love.

There is a battle for your soul, and it is dangerous to fail to understand the enemy is always there. A target is on your back when you open your mouth and make a commitment. When our committedness or our attitude towards our commitment changes, we open up the door for the devil to pick us off. We must treat Christ as our fort, our place of resistance, and recognize that putting on the full armor of God means putting on Christ, who fortifies us from the inside. When we mess up, we need to get up again and learn from the last time.  VF-2245   Ephesians 6:10-17

We are targets of the devil because of God's Spirit in us, so it is important for us to try the spirits to discern false teaching from the Word of God. We need to look to the Word and learn the sayings of God, carefully wielding the rhemas as a short sword – in defense and offense against the enemy. Ephesians 6:17, 1 John 4:1-3 VF-2113

God has sealed us with His Spirit, the Arrabon, a part payment certifying us as authentically His, until we receive our full inheritance. He has granted both authority and power as the equipment for service, and it is important to both know and understand how to use it. This includes wielding the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, by which we will make it through. Ephesians 1:13-14  VF-2100.

We are God's workmanship. That includes those who may feel they are outside of the favored group, like Hagar or the woman at the well. The God who sees is the God who is watching, who cares, and who knows all about us, and He is not done working on us individually or collectively. On this Father's Day, we remember our heavenly Father, who loves us unconditionally and with great mercy and longsuffering.

Like a skilled hunter, satan observes and considers us to make his most powerful attacks, to hinder us, to tempt us, and to take us as prey. But God has His hand on us. There is no reason why we should be under this kind of attack unless we have a part in God's kingdom. There is a battle for us, and we need to take spiritual inventory so we can see where the battle is. We cannot fight the devil in the flesh, but in unity with Christ. The battle is the Lord's.  VF-2072   Ephesians 4:26  Ephesians 6:10-20

It is much more painful to be badly treated by somebody you love than by a stranger, and the Holy Spirit of God is very close to us, given to us by God to abide in our hearts.  God continues to give second chances, forgiving all sin against the Son, but we are warned that sin against the Spirit is unpardonable.  If we are sensitive to the Holy Spirit and reading the scriptures to learn more about God’s way, then He will help us in our walk as yielded vessels.  VF-2112  Ephesians 4:30
