As we wrap up our series in John 5, we are confronted with the most important question: do we believe His words?
Are we trying to light up our lives with our own glory or God’s? Pastor Tim takes us back to John 5, looking at verses 41-44 in tonight’s Steadfast.
We are right to realize we can’t do it all and that we need God’s Word to guide us. But if in our pursuit of doing things right before God, we miss Him, what have we accomplished?
Lots of things claim to be of value — but which ones really are? Which ones are just so much “Monopoly money”? Pastor Tim explores the question as we continue in John 5 tonight.
Pastor Tim reflects what the Bible says about “the Rapture” and what it is really calling us to focus on. Also, information about Faithtoberfest, which is drawing near!
“My child, do not despise discipline from the Lord, and do not loathe his rebuke. For the Lord disciplines those he loves, just as a father disciplines the son in whom he delights.”
The Boys are back — one standing, one sitting — both trying to make sense of Cardinals chaos, Blues heartbreak and the first hundred days of Trump 2.0. Plus: speculation on the next album from Taylor Swift and a meditation on the mystery of Jesus’ two natures.
Such a weird flood of emotions. My church is part of a twice yearly, live streamed “Online Community Prayer Walk.” It always strikes me deeply, but how much more so as it falls on 9/11 and, more immediately, amidst two nation-shaking murders.
Some piles of garbage are better than others. But if you asked me which one I’d like to lie down in, I’d say, “None of them.” The answer should be the same when answering about which sort of politics should influence Christianity.
In fairness, Sola Fide is precisely “Justification by faith alone.” We have to be careful as both advocates and opponents of Protestant theology can misstate what the Solas mean. It doesn’t help me or others to help them misstate their own position.
