Jesus gave a new commandment for disciples in the New Testament – to love one another. In this message, I introduce the “one anotherings” in the New Testament age, observing what a unique and dynamic shift this was for worshippers of God.

It is common to hear – Do you know that you know that you are saved? Almost without exception the answer to this question involves looking at what YOU have done. Did you accept Christ? Did you pray a prayer? Then the question is – are you sure? This is a common tactic of fearmongers to make children of God question their salvation. The truth is that our salvation does not look to what we do, but what Christ did. But we can experience assurance according to the Apostle of love. In this message, I look at how we can know that we know we are God’s children.

Who doesn’t like simple things? But the sinful nature of man likes to complicate things. Paul warns us in 2 Corinthians about our minds being corrupted from the simplicity of Christ. Satan works tirelessly to complicate the gospel message to make it confusing to the minds of men. In this sermon Brother Luke looks at how simple the gospel message of salvation by grace alone truly is.

Many would say we must accept Jesus in order to be saved. But this is the opposite of the way it is. The Lord accepts us through the work of His Son Jesus. But as born again children of God, we can accept the ministry of Jesus to our lives. Jesus made it very clear what his ministry is to us in Luke 4. Do we accept this ministry?

In the 3rd message on Spirit fullness, I finally come to the specific ways in which born again children of God can experience the filling of the Spirit. The Lord will not be mocked, and we can certainly do things to repel His Spirit. But when we embrace submission to His will, the experience of Spirit fullness is other worldly.

Our world is overrun with an infectious, sinful disease called pride. The Bible has much to say about pride, but we have gotten so used to seeing it we often fail to recognize it. In this sermon Brother Luke preaches about what pride really looks like, to better help us identify it. This is important for us because it is certain that pride will always lead to shame, contention, and destruction.

In Micah the sixth chapter we read that God’s people are required to love mercy. Do we love mercy? We sure love to receive it, but do we love to give it? In this sermon Brother Luke looks at the life of Joseph to show a powerful example of what loving mercy looks like.

Here is a message I overlooked in the “Set Apart” series. One of the top 5 teachings that sets apart the truth from that which is not truth, is total depravity. We can never truly understand why salvation is by grace alone until we clearly see total depravity. The reason salvation can only be by grace alone is because of the condition of man apart from God’s intervention. And that is the tale of 2 families.

Without question there are ways we can act and think that will repel the Spirit of God. In part 2 of a message on this subject, I look at the things that accommodate and welcome the Holy Spirit into close fellowship.

We were blessed this week to have brother Jonah Lowrance visiting with us. Brother Jonah is a member of Mt. Paran PBC in Social Circle, GA. In this message Brother Jonah preaches on Peter’s message on the day of Pentecost. The focus of Peter’s message was on the resurrected Savior, and it caused a tremendous reaction.

If we check all the boxes by going to church, praying, and giving – does that mean we are guaranteed to be favored with the Presence of God’s Spirit? What does it mean to be Spirit filled? Are there ways we can act and think that will repel the Spirit of God? In this message, I look at some things that will cause the Spirit of God to back away from us.
