Bringing Relationships to Life

There are some people who will never give their lives to Christ. Their hearts lead them away from the relationship that God wants them to have with Him. There comes a point when God lets go.

Exchanging God's glory for something else can happen to us without our noticing. We may even think we are doing what is right when we do so. We can look at the scripture and claim we aren't doing what the scripture has used as real examples of exchanging God's glory but we may still be doing so. Thus, we claim to be wise rather than convicted. We become fools instead of becoming wise. That's a dead end road.

This Mother's Day there are three things to make sure that you honor your mothers. You can love her, respect her and remember her. This sermon tells you how to do all three.

The darkened heart can't see clearly. It lacks God's peace, hope, love, guidance, purpose and strength. The darkened heart won't receive salvation and is bored with worship. If Satan can't keep you from being saved, he will certainly do what he can to keep you in the dark. It doesn't have to be that way.

God has revealed Himself to everyone since creation and through creation. The evidence is so plain that no one has a valid reason for ignoring God. This sermon gives the reasons why.

If I had cancer, I would want a doctor who hated cancer. It would make him or her more than a good doctor. It would make a loving doctor. This sermon shows how a God who isn't full of wrath concerning sin isn't a loving God.

Faith is adhering to a belief. You will act consistently in what you
believe. These beliefs come from the heart. Each person must receive
faith and believe. That will happen differently for different people.
Some believe by hearing, while others believe by sight. Some won't
believe until they touch. What will it take for you to believe?

People set up places to exchange Roman money for the Temple money in
the Temple. They sold the animals necessary for the sacrifice. It was
the most practical thing to do. However, Jesus throws them out of the
Temple because worship isn't practical.

How much righteousness do you have? Do you think you have 50% or 75% of what is needed to have an unhindered relationship with God? So, you only need 25% to 50% of His righteousness, right? No, absolutely not! This message states clearly that your righteousness and God's righteousness are totally different. You must abandon your righteousness to have His righteousness. Then, you will live by faith.

Many Christians trust in Christ but fail to realize the power in that
decision. They set the gospel aside rather than access its power in
their lives. It's like riding in coach when you could fly first class.
