He Helps You Make Decisions

Whenever I have the time, I enjoy rummaging through the books in used bookstores. And there are two or three in the city of Chicago that are still worth checking. One day I was looking at some books on a table, and one book in particular interested me so I picked it up and I looked at it and I …

He Makes the Future Bright

In Ephesians 1:12-14, we have one of the names of the Holy Spirit, and we've been looking at the names of the Holy Spirit. And this one we're going to look at tonight. Ephesians 1:12, that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in him, in whom ye also trusted after that ye heard …

He Helps You Live by Faith

We're reading tonight 1 Corinthians 4. Now, I'm going to read the entire chapter. We're going to focus on 1 Corinthians 4:13 as the key to the chapter. 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians 4. Therefore, seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not, but have renounced …

Healing Life's Mistakes

We read the word of God from John 18:11, and then two verses from Luke 22. First we read from John 18. When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the book Chidron, where was a garden into which he entered and his disciples. And Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the …

Fruit Bearing

John 15 is a part of what we call the Upper Room Discourse. Imagine that you're one of the twelve apostles. Of course, Judas skipped out. But imagine you're one of the apostles. Jesus is going to leave you, go back to heaven, and now what are we supposed to do? And our Lord in this discourse tells …

The Logic of Law

We open the word to Galatians 3, and we're going to be considering Galatians 3:19-29. Paul has proved that salvation is by grace and not by the keeping of the law. He's proved it in two ways, first of all, personally from his own life, Galatians 1 and 2, and then doctrinally from the Old Testament …

The Liberty of Love

Galatians 5:11-26. And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, that is, the law, why do I yet suffer persecution? Then is the offense of the cross ceased. I would they were even cut off who trouble you. For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty. Only use not liberty for an occasion to the …

Free For All

Reading the word of God from Galatians 6:1-10. Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, which means some kind of sin, ye who are spiritual restore such in one in the spirit of meekness, considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of …

High Cost of Legalism

We open the word to Galatians 5:1-10, and our theme tonight is the high cost of legalism. Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Behold, I, Paul, say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you …

Born Free

Our theme tonight is born, and we're reading from Galatians 4:19-31. This has always been a fascinating paragraph to me, because it shows how Paul reaches back into the Old Testament scriptures and finds some wonderful spiritual lessons. Galatians 4:19. My little children, of whom I travail in …
