11 17 I Corinthians 1.10-2.5 Part 2 Doctrine is an important topic for the church to discuss. It frames what we believe and how we live. The various passage we consider in today’s message unwrap for us why we should study and hold to sound doctrine. They cover everything from our need to refute false teaching as well as the necessity in selecting godly leaders. Sutdy to show yourself approve unto God, a workman that isn’t ashamed.
11 10 I Corinthians 1.10-2.5 Doctrine simply means something taught. Many don’t like to tackle doctrine because it gives the impression of being as dry as day old toast. Others shy away from it because it appears to be too restrictive or dogmatic. Still others avoid it becuase it doesn’t have any take home value, no application. That could be further from the truth. Right doctrine leads to right living. Doctrine when studied correctly will lead to something that is practical. It not only affects what we believe, but how we should live. Doctrinal integrity is important for us to discuss in order to know what we believe and why as well as to refute false doctrine. If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything. This is the first of two messages to discuss unity in our doctrine. Today we discuss a warning about doctrinal factions and doctrinal fabrication. Next week we will discuss the wisdom of doctrinal faithfulness.

11 03 I Corinthians 12:10-31 Diversity is a topic we hear a lot about today. Some of it’s good and some of it is not so good. God planned for diversity in the body of Christ. It’s discussed in our passage and is essential for unity. Unfortunately, the Corinthian church had some problems with diversity that affected their unity. It all has to do with properly using your spiritual gift. Diversity was planned with a design for unity. Diversity has a purpose that develops unity. Diversity has a problem that disrupts unity.

10 27 Romans 12.9-21 Our lives are filled with directions. There are directions to assemble some product you just purchased. There are directions on the side of the prescription bottle. There are directions for tire rotation and checking fluid levels in your car. There are directions for developing unity in the body of Christ. Those are found in Scripture. Our passage today provides a number of character traits essential to the Christian life that help us develop and maintain unity. It all starts with love.
10 20 Romans 15.5-6 Unity is so fragile. The littlest thing can disrupt or dissengage unity. There are any number of character traits that can dissolve unity in an instant. OUr passage today tells us why we should have unity in the body. It is worth pursuing.

10 06 John 3.1-17 Jevhovah Jireh – God will provide. We conclude our series today on God’s provisions. They are many and His supply is limitless. From our passage today we understand God’s greatest provision for man’s greatest need. His provision makes a real and radical transformation. The message concludes with the donut story.
09 29 Luke 16.19-31 The story of the rich man and Lazarus reminds us that what benefits or blessings we enjoy in this life, may not be what we enjoy in heaven and neither does the pain we experience now equate to eternal punishment. It also reminds us of the urgency of heeding Scripture now in relation to our eternal destiny. After we die it will be too late. Hell is a real place with real punishment and real pain. Oh, and it’s eternal, there will be no parole or pardon.
09 22 Genesis 22.1-18 Abraham was given another test of his faith. How do we know so? It says so in 22:1. This was the ultimate test of faith. Did he love God more than he loved his son of promise, Isaac? That’s a good question for us. We all have an Isaac. It could be a person like our spouse or child or grandchildren or some other relationship. It could be our job or hobby or home. Anything that we hold as valuable or precious to us can be an Isaac. Are we willing to give that to the Lord and say we love Him more than these?
