“You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine befo...

Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.

The Holy Spirit Promised And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, “which,” He said, “you have heard from Me; for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”

Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.

Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God.

Mercy is a characteristic of the true follower of Christ. As we continue with the 5th beatitude and already learned that we need to humble ourselves to be like Jesus, now we will start to learn more about how we suppose to build our relationship with others.  In the message titled "Ministers of Mercy", Ps. Heath Flanagan shares a reminder to us that when we look upward to Christ we will under...

Power under control, what does it mean?  Maybe in our society we often see and hear the opposite: abuse of power, chasing the hot seat of power, retaliations and wars. It seems that our society has little use for gentleness.  But when we listen to what Jesus says, "Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth", it seems God does have different standard, a higher standard. So,...

For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power. Not Legalism but Christ In Him you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in th...

Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted.

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special pe...

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God. Blessed are the peace...

And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them. Gr...

In this closing of the Philippian Sermon Series, “Bookends,” Ps. Heath Flanagan shares with us how everything is about Jesus Christ and His grace in our lives. The apostle leaves 3 things for Philippi to remember: Glory, Greetings and Grace.  By humbling ourselves to know God in our lives, we will be able to see His glory, not only from everything around us, but also from the change of perspe...

Philippians 4:14-20 Nevertheless you have done well that you shared in my distress. Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only. For even in Thessalonica you sent aid once and again for my necessities. Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that abounds to your accou...

Philippian Generosity But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at last your care for me has flourished again; though you surely did care, but you lacked opportunity. Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to...

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.

Philippians 3:17 - 4:1, Brethren, join in following my example, and note those who so walk, as you have us for a pattern. For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things. For our citizenship is in h...

When we look at the life and ministry of Jesus Christ, we all can say that they were very impactful. We as children of God need to follow His examples to shine forth and become the light for our communities as well. However, how we able to shine correctly? In these modern ages, where technologies are everywhere and easy to be accessed, there are so many people rising to be on the “spotlight”. They...

Philipphians 3:12-16 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of...

Philippians 3:1-11 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. For me to write the same things to you is not tedious, but for you it is safe. Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the mutilation! For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh, though I also might have confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks...

Philippians 2:19-30 But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state. For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state. For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's. But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel. Him therefore I hop...

While salvation is an amazing gift from God, which is given not because of our works, but for good works that God already prepared for us, it also means that we need to work out our own salvation. What does that mean?   In his letter to the Philippians, the Apostle Paul wrote about this matter in verses talking about Light Bearers. In the message titled, “Shine as Lights,” Ps. Heath Flan...

Christmas is coming very soon; we can really sense it with some Christmas songs, gifts, food and trees all around us these days. When we look at a Christmas tree, we need to know that the most important part of the Christmas tree is not its decoration, but its foundation which helps the tree to stand firm.   Thus, this Christmas, let us not forget the most important part of Christmas, Je...
