Last week we discussed understanding Heaven. How important is it for us to understand that
we currently have citizenship in the heavenly places. We saw multiple scriptures where this was
the case currently and not in the future. However, today I plan to discuss the scripture that
point to the fullness of heaven has been in the future. A country that awaits the faithful and all
those that have fallen asleep in the world. Asleep that is not simply speaking about one there’s
a boring sermon and you can’t keep your eyes open at a sleep that is determined by when a
heart ceases to beat. This, by no means takes away from the fact that, as we discussed last
week, we currently are enrolled in heavenly places. As the scripture still plainly the states, this
is factual and biblical. However, we must understand that the current state of mankind awaits
completion of the prophecy of redemption Jesus Christ as spoken through the book of
revelation. It is very much a parallel to salvation, we are saved. We are being saved and we will
be saved. We have membership in the body. We have citizenship in the heavenly places, but
we also weight the fullness of kingdom dwelling.

In order to understand heaven, you must first understand the curse. A correct understanding
of heaven requires us to go back to Genesis to see Gods original intent with mankind and his
creation. God’s original intent was always to dwell in fellowship with his creation. Because of
sin, this was all changed in the fall of man from the garden, created what we now know, as
meant, as an expectation of a kingdom to come. Understanding heaven means we must first
understand the divine’s intent, then from there, we can see it this is never changed it was only
interrupted by sin. I do not think that the garden of Eden was the fullness of heaven, but I think
it was a foretaste of things to come should mankind have fulfilled our commitment.

As a church it is important to understand the distinction between out obligation to the state and the associated governing authorities and out responsibility and function as a church when we vote. We do so to establish a quorum, a majority to either approve or disapprove. This process is adhered to because of our obligation and the need to maintain good standing with the state. Let's hear what our pastor has to say.

Most of us understand and are aware of the importance of having a practical understanding and demonstrating of the word of God in our lives. We must also understand that word working with the Holy Spirit is when we achieve the vertical alignment with our God. Study alone will net a head knowledge with out practical application. relying solely on the Holy Spirit will result in a Christian who can hear/feel the origins of the Spirit, but have no real way to understand how to apply it biblically. A Christian who does not become/maintain and value the church will become nomad, who starts off okay, but will wander into trouble. Think of it like this you got the map, but don’t know how to use it and the batteries on your flashlight will start to dim.

We live in a world where partial truths are told and repeated to the point that people begin to believe them. There is a popular term going around right now, “Speak your truth.”. If you say it and believe it this its true and how dare you if you would even think of challenging. For so much of the world it truly can be very challenging to find the truth. AS servants we have the ability and responsibility to be anchored in truth. And through love we should speak truth, share truth and demonstrate truth. While the world may be lost and confused by this, as His people we become lost as well when we distance ourselves from Him.

The sense for urgency can’t sing any louder, it is time to wake up. Time to wake up in our churches, homes, and our personal lives. It is time for God’s people to get on the stick and be serious about serving Him and spreading His word. This message and His words need to be instilled in our youth, from birth and up. They need to see it demonstrated in your lives mom and dad! Elders in then church must be the example for parents and children. When you look around the churches today you can see the numbers dwindling and the affects of spiritual attrition. However, the one that grows have commonality, conviction, purpose, and action.

With Resurrection Sunday or Easter one week away it caused our pastor to pause and think about the significance of this time of year. We spend a lot of time looking at scripture and discussing various topics from the bible which is good and appropriate. However, spending more time focused on the week before HIS death, burial, and resurrection seems to be the best topic of discussion. The death, burial, and resurrection was foretold in the old testament prophecies. Several times it is mentioned 700 plus years before HIS arrival, birth, and ministry. His arrival and ministry represents something, a larger plan by GOD and HIS divine purpose. It is a reconciliation of HIS creation to the creator and inside of this purpose and plan resides: redemption, glory, mercy, compassion, and salvation.

When a man or a woman makes the choice to submit to His Lordship, it is absolutely imperative to be 100% committed to His ways. It is a complete surrender of your will for His. It is also essential to understand that people, places, and things will come and go. There will be times of unfathomable blessings, and time of unbearable circumstances. There will also be the majority of times where we simply navigate life. Times are neither good nor bad they just are. We must not be lulled into complacency and misidentify these times and forgot how insanely important and significant they are. It is in these times where we solidify and fortify our foundations in preparation for contentment, struggle and blessing. This life is a test run for the life to come in Christ. Repetition and consistency become your friends. Conversely, inconsistency and lack of practice become your nemesis.

The world is always changing, but sin remains the same. Often times we can become distracted by all of the things that catch our attention. We have constant stimulation in that palm of our hands. Social media can be a very deceptive playground. People can say and do what ever they want, and unless we do some research, we have no way of knowing the truth. Always be skeptical of the profiles who is always awesome 100% if the time. May we also understand that this cultural aspect most definitely has an impact of our lives, which can also impact our church.

We've spent the last several Sundays discussing multiple aspect and understanding of biblical stewardship. We've talked about the original stewardship in the garden with man and woman, the individual stewardship responsibility, and the collective responsibility as a church. All topics placed on our pastors heart from The Lord to share with us. To summarize all of the mentioned topics it all boils down to how do we apply these very clearly seen biblical practices? When and where do they apply? No one person, family, or church has them completely figured out. However, the successful of aforementioned have a distinct understanding and practical application of stewardship principles.

Last week we discussed then importance of understanding biblical stewardship as it relates to the individual. This episode we will talk about establishing a biblical balance concerning responsibility and accountability, a blanket approach of the entire body and not biblically covering the individual within, allows for anonymity and a gap in the proper working of the body. The bible is very clear on both the individual and the collective, both subjects must be covered in order for us to fulfil our stewardship roles.

Our Pastor is excited to discuss and share with what the Lord has placed on his heart for the second part of the stewardship series. We are going to talk about the importance of the individual responsibility of stewardship. We are going to take a look at scriptural examples that he feel provide the best applicable examples. Last week we talked about the creation of man and women, which are divinely created in the image of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. We were created with a purpose far more than just existing. we were created divinely by a sovereign God to fulfill his desired purpose. The most basic of principles He created them male and female and they are intended to be joined together: to multiple and to rule over His creation. Intended to operate as a family unit. Todays examples falls on the individual and understanding your role in any and all circumstances to perform, be successful, and stand tall at the accounting. Which will be between you and the Lord. Steward to Master relationship.
Do the best you can with what you have!

We are excited to bring you the subject on stewardship. The new testament word for steward is oikonomos which is translated to manager/steward; manager of the house, commonly a superior slave of tried character, who looked after the accounts of the household. The Lord has placed this on our pastor heart in such a way that its going to take the entire month of February to cover. Our First endeavor will cover the practical understanding and definition founded biblically . What does the bible say about stewardship and what important examples does the word provide us. Another subject to cover is biblical scope. What includes in our stewardship as servants. What are the most basic biblical examples given to us to not only understand but how to properly execute according to His expectation.

Fear is the antithesis of Faith. The simple definition of antithesis is: a person or thing that is the direct opposite of someone or something else. However, we must also remember that fear is an emotion and faith is not, so is it fear that separates us from faith? James tells us that we demonstrate our faith with our actions; our lives; our choices; and how we respond. In Proverbs 1:7 "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge", as the title indicates Fear is a liar; specifically unchecked. ungodly and fleshly fear is a liar. Baseless unbiblical fear can cause anxiety and doubt and cause well intentioned Christians to make spiritually void and purely fleshly decision. Thereby placing us in opposition to God's plan, purpose and direction for us.

Often times I am asked how do I know the right decision to make. There are some simple questions to ask yourself. One, will this make my life better or more difficult? Two, will this help me as a Christian? Progression vs regression, there is no in between. Third, have I consulted Godly people who will be honest with me? Life decisions should involve two to three honest people. Lastly, follow the process that our God provides in His word.

There are times where we will have the opportunity to be the neighbor someone needs. Sometimes we justify our inactions by using scripture inaccurately, because our neighbors isn't just those who sit in the pews with you. We have been called and given the light, but what good is the light if its only lighting up the house you are in only for those in your house? We are to be the light set on a hill for those around us. Today we take a deeper dive into what it really means to be the good Samaritan.

God is the the creator of all things, He was here before the earth was formed, He was there when there was nothing but darkness, and He is still here. Gods word is life sustaining, without God we have nothing and without God we are nothing! When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden, we fell along with them, but God had a different planned in place. God gave is Jesus! The Way, The Truth, and The Life!

Today we dive into what it really mean to be a follower of Jesus Christ not just a fan. Some of us are really into sports, some of us are really into reality TV, and some of us are fan of Harry Potter. Whether it be a team, person or a book, some of us can spew out stats or facts about all these things. Why cant we be the same with Jesus Christ and about the Bible? This is the way, the truth, and the life! The zeal that we use to follower these things of this world we should have the same zeal to follow Jesus Christ! So are we a fan or a follower?

We need to remind ourselves that salvation is a gift from God. There isn't one particular thing you can do or a checklist you can mark off to receive salvation. God wants you to submit to Him and His Lordship, we can sometimes find ourselves being complacent in the sight of the Lord, but we need to humble ourselves and realize that we still need HIM! God is on control of all things and His desires are for all men to be saved. We must submit and carry out the will of the Lord!

Have we forgotten where we can from? Meaning have we forgotten where our hope and salvation comes from? Jesus Christ is the source of this, sometimes we can be so righteous of ourselves that we forget this! The things we strive for and fought tooth and nails to get, once we achieve it. We forget how we got it and where we came from. We can do that same with our walk with Christ.

Jesus Christ is where we find repentance from sins, not through us that is not our responsibility. The best of us can find ourselves thinking we have this ability to do so. We need to take a step back sometimes because we can think to highly of ourselves. We need to look inside our own heart and look into the hearts of those we come encounter with. Like Jesus does. We need to refocus our eyes on Jesus Christ and humble ourselves.

We must rise up as Christians and fight back. In California, when they said we couldn’t meet for the first couple of months, we complied because we did not know what in the world was going on. Now they are saying we could meet but cannot sing? That is an infringement of our 1st amendment right, we should sing even louder. There are times in the bible where Gods people overcame by singing. So, where do we turn in times like these...?
