In today’s episode, we look at three examples in the Bible of people who were hiding from God instead of doing what they should have been doing. If you are hiding from God today, please, pray and get things made right with him.

Selected verses in Joshua 6-7. We all know, and I hope understand, that sin is what separates us from God. That sin can also affect the lives of others.. What are you hiding from God today.

Selected Verses. We must be certain that we are doing the will of God. Don’t be deceived by false teachers, and don’t join them. I know the previous sentences looked like warning labels, but it is what is needed today. We all fall victim to false teachings from time to time, but as we grow and mature, hopefully we will see those false teachings for what they are before we fall into them.

Various verses. For the Christian, we have freedom in Christ. We have the freedom to choose whether we follow Jesus, or if we follow our old sin nature. One is beneficial and profitable to our life and faith. The other will cause us to miss our reward.

Various verses. For the Christian, we have freedom in Christ. Yet, all too often we use that freedom for the wrong purposes. We use that freedom to indulge in our sinful nature. That is not what that freedom is for. If you choose to sin, that is your choice, no one else’s. Don’t bring sin into your life, into your family, into your home, or into your church in any form.

Finishing up our series on Go fro Matthews GospeL.

As we continue our study on the Great Commission, I teach today on the topic of teaching. We are to go and to teach. Many of us, myself included, don’t consider ourselves teachers. Yet, as we see in todays episode, that is exactly what we are called to do.

Selected verses from Matthew 10. Jesus told us to “Go.” What did He mean? Go is an action word, it requires us to do something. We must share our faith with those in our homes, communities and workplaces. The church today seems to want people to “Come.” It’s up to us, the congregation, to go and be the hands and feet of Jesus in our homes, immunities and workplaces.

For the next several days, we will be studying what we call today, the Great Commission. It’s our marching larders direct from Jesus. Today, I give a quick overview of what we are called to do.

John 16:33. Peace and Joy, 2 things that I believe are lacking from our lives. Yet, they are both readily available for the Christian.

Romans 5:6,8. Today, we are talking about salvation, about getting the forgiveness of God. When we could do nothing to save ourselves, God stepped in, and gave us forgiveness through Jesus. Are you ready to accept that gift?

By spending time studying and applying the Bible to our lives, that is the only way we will know what the calling of God is on our lives. It’s the only way we will be thoroughly equipped to handle that call. When was the last time you looked at your Bible?
