Romans 14:1-4

 

Our Welcoming

Who should we be welcoming? Today with the proliferation of social media it is a question that we must be asking ourselves. With the ability to deliberate that which is disputable, or distinctions in denominations and even destinations which are damnable, it may cause more division than scripture allows. Have you become bogged down in opinions rather than rejoicing in God-given opportunities?

Time to Wake Up (Romans 13:11-14, January 31, 2021)

Pastor Chris Gardner

Romans 13:11-14

We must stay awake in anticipation of Christ's return, but not only must we Wake Up "for salvation is nearer to us now". We must Dress Up and "cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light". Let us Clean Up and and "walk properly as in daytime", and Power Up as we "put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires." Scriptre calls us to test ourselves to see if we are in the faith. Are you?

Preacher: Pastor Chris Gardner

 

Romans 13:1-7

 

All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 

This statement made by Jesus recorded in the book of Matthew should give us confidence in our daily lives. When we look around us and see and hear what is occurring we should hang tight to what our Lord stated quite plainly. In the Sermon by Pastor Chris he will delve into this deeper as we continue our study in the book of Romans. 

The Greatist Gift_Love (Romans12:9-16, January 3, 2021)

Preacher: Chris Gardner

 

Romans 12:9-16

 

Gifts of Grace
For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith; if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching; the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.
