Perhaps one of the hardest things we undertake to do is forgive. It is impossible to forgive and forget, but if we look at the example our Savior, we can learn how to forgive and remember the forgiveness we committed to. In this message, I look at the example of God forgiving us for Christ’s sake, so we can understand better how to forgive one another.

We have all experienced loss to some degree or another. Some losses are more severe than others, but they all steal our joy. As time marches on we lose jobs, financial status, health, friends, family and even pets. When Satan steals, kills and destroys we are often lose something dear to us and find our joy greatly diminished. In this Sermon, Brother Luke looks at the great encouraging promise of God that he will make all things new!

I come to the 3rd spiritual blessing that Paul lists in our series on Ephesians – Accepted in the Beloved. In the last 100 years it has become a spiritual urban legend that a child of God must accept Jesus. But the Bible teaches the complete opposite. God accepts us. In this message, I look at what it means to be accepted in the Beloved of God – Christ Jesus.
