Most of us are trained to develop either an outright fear for a crisis or a major challenge in our lives, or we try to avoid involvement in any way. As we live in this world that God created, yet Satan holds sway, true Christians understand that crises are unavoidable. It may be obvious, but it bears covering, that it is our reaction and reliance on God that is our task. In this Sermonette message we will discuss this in more detail and cover scriptures that can help us in times of stress and challenge.
Sermons
Where Is He Leading Us?
We tend to define our lives by our past — résumés, records, what’s already happened. But God calls people toward who they’re becoming, not who they’ve been, and He cares less about getting us to a destination than about staying close to us on the way there. This message traces that path through Abraham, Moses, and David to the promise waiting at the end of it: God Himself, with us.
Am I My Brother’s Keeper?
True Christian love means taking responsibility for one another and truly seeing our brethren.
God sees our weaknesses, struggles, and potential, and Christ calls us to extend that same love, patience, mercy, and compassion to one another.
As members of the same spiritual body, we are called to actively reach out.
Our unity is not merely about coexisting, but about practicing genuine agape love through mutual appreciation, empathy, patience, and active care.
God’s Government to Come
God is going to completely replace all governments with a completely new and perfect government – one that will rule the people correctly unlike our present failed systems.
The Power of Repetition
We explore how God deliberately uses repetition, patterns, and recurring themes throughout Scripture to deeply etch His message into our hearts and reveal essential truths. By understanding repetition as a divine teaching tool, we learn how form highlights meaning and invites us into a deeper, lifelong engagement with the Word of God.
We Are Christ’s Disciples
Who were Christ’s 12 disciples and did He choose them randomly? Was there a specific purpose for each of them and how does that reflect for us today? Are we also chosen for a purpose today?
Agape Induced
“God’s AI or man’s AI? Are we living in an ultra technological world where man’s AI will destroy all of humanity? Is there a choice whether to follow God’s AI or man’s AI. Agape Induced will point out the difference and how God’s soon to come Kingdom will usher in His AI!
Training for the Kingdom
Everything we go through now is training. The hard things, the tedious things, the things we don’t understand in the moment are for our learning. We may not always see why we experience what we do, but we can trust that God is preparing us for a purpose far greater than we realize. We are not only being raised up as children of God, we are being trained as kings and priests, to serve under Jesus Christ when He returns. The Feast of Tabernacles pictures that future time, when the nations will finally be ready and willing to learn the truth, and we will be the ones teaching them, drawing on the very experiences, sufferings, and lessons we are living through right now. We don’t have to wait until then to see the value of our training. Every trial we face today is already shaping us into the kind of teacher who can help others come to salvation, with the same understanding and empathy Christ Himself gained through what He suffered.
God’s Call to Salvation
Does God call all people to salvation today? Christ’s ministry as a human being demonstrates that He made no effort at that time to lead everyone to the Truth, to impress the masses, or to draw all people to Himself. Rather, the Bible speaks of two harvests and two types of rain. The masses—the world—will be called to salvation at a later time, but not now. And this realization has consequences for the Work of the Church of God today.
A Blessed Harvest
How could ancient Israel ensure that it would be able to rejoice in a blessed harvest during the Feast of Tabernacles – a joy that God expected of His people?
In answering this question, we will also explore a spiritual dimension that the unique weather patterns of Israel reveal for all mankind, one that will lead to truly great joy among all people with the beginning of the Millennium.
