In our world today the crime of identity theft and worse has become a near constant threat to deal with. From credit card scams now being a daily component of email, and on-line purchases, to the theft of one’s identity, life can be an all-consuming race to protect our financial well-being and reputations. However, as a true Christian one never need worry about losing our singular identity in the eyes of our Creator—our Father in Heaven. In this Split-Sermon we will cover scriptures that show us how we can rely on God for the spiritual and physical protection of our unique being that He created.
Sermons
The Big Picture
Maintaining a vision of our future in the Kingdom of God helps us endure the challenges that we face in life. Knowing that we are children of God destined to glory gives us something to hope for, fueling our inspiration and motivation to overcome sin and draw close to God in obedience.
Knowledge, Education, Fulfillment
Through His ministers and messages, God deepens the knowledge for which He has opened our minds. We can evaluate our situation and must then apply what we have understood. This happens in sometimes lengthy processes, but God shapes our character and guides us in our lives if we allow His Holy Spirit to lead us. HIS plan will be fulfilled, and it is our task, within our lives as Christians, to have a part in this fulfillment.
Appreciation
This sermon looks at several aspects of our lives and relationships to encourage us to appreciate our calling and our relationship with one another and with God.
Keep it Simple
The complexity of life and sabotage from Satan threaten to distract us from the focus we need to maintain our relationship with God. But His instructions for us are simple. We are to follow His commandments, turn from sin, and have faith in the salvation of Christ if we want to inherit the Kingdom of God. We can rely on the simplicity of Christ to guide us through our lives so that we succeed in the end.
Where Shall We Dwell
King David asked God in the Psalms where he should dwell. The answer is quite eye-opening in terms of how we are to live as Christians. With this true knowledge, we can live closely with God.
Forgiveness—FROM THE HEART!
This sermon is about our responsibility and power to forgive, showing that we must forgive from the heart—just as God does.
The Intoxication of Power, Position and Authority
We may not have much power now, but in the future as a member of the God family we will have more power than we can ever realise at this time. It’s the power in the Kingdom of God that we should be eagerly looking forward to, not the selfish, self-serving power that seems to be a high priority with so many today
How To Use the Power of God
Do we understand what the power of God is? And if we do understand that, do we understand how to use this power? Does God tell us that we will be able to use it?
All Nations
In this present age the nations of the world are not at peace. Conflicts, wars, and espionage exist between many nations instead. But after the return of Jesus Christ and the establishment of the Kingdom of God, peace will prevail among nations, who will come together to worship the true God.
