because of Christ

The grace of God produces a life of faith. His grace is not ineffective, but reforms our entire being for His glory. He who began a good work in us, will see it through to completion on the day of judgment. 

What causes fights in our relationships? How do we prevent them? 

The heart of the gospel focuses on salvation coming from the finished work of Christ instead of the law. And the power of the gospel is the crucifixion and resurrection of our dear Lord. He died a substitutionary death that we spiritually partake in, and if we died a death with Him, we will be raised to new life with Him. 

What does affection have to do with it? Everything! Affections tell us what our hearts are drawn to and what they desire to cling to. Affections have great effects to everything we do. 

Where does righteousness come from? Not from the law, not from man himself, but from God's own justification through Christ. This is the heart of the gospel. 

If you could "divorce proof" your marriage, would you? Here is one way...

The Apostle Paul's fifth proof that his gospel is of divine origin tells of the fruit it bears in our life in relationship to all men. 

The Apostle Paul gives a fourth proof of how the gospel he preaches is not of human, but divine origin. 

What will it take to make or break your marriage? Many are living too comfortable lives and are not asking this question. Is that pride? Whatever it is, it is foolishness. Here is the most important relationship the Lord has given us. He doesn't want it to fail or even become complacent. So, what will it take? 

How can you know the gospel is of divine origin? Paul goes into an argument from his testimony to back up his point. 

What happens to our spirit when we die? And what will become of it after that? These are questions that each person faces and should face sooner rather than later. We are not guaranteed the next breathe, but God has been gracious enough to give us assurance in the promise of life with Him. 

The gospel of God is not derived of man. Paul knew that the gospel he proclaimed was delivered to him and all the Apostles in a way that was not earthen, or fleshly, but divine. 

What is it you marvel at? Marveling has a certain way of telling on where our soul is spiritually. It tells us the glory that attracts us and quite often tells of distractions and weights in our lives. 

Our day to day life is more supernatural and spiritual than we might care to think. So which spirit will have your obedience today? 

Do you like to be listened to? Paul labors in his introduction to this glorious letter to state where the authority of the words he is about to say comes from. They are worth being heard and obeyed because of this authority. 

Test the what? The spirits... What are they? Ghosts? Lets look at what a spirit is and how we interact with them. 

The Gospel? What is it and why is there a need to get it right? This is the first sermon from our series at Providence Christian Church going through the book of Galatians. 

In this world of light and darkness there are many spirits. They animate everything that is said or done. So, how do you know which one you should listen to or not? Which one is true? Which one is of God? 

How does one become a child of the light? There are many answers offered to you in the world that all seem like good solutions. Yet, there is only one that is truly eternal. Define the light, to come into the light, and live. 

Examine the environmental shift from the Garden of Eden to a world once shrouded in darkness. Through Christ, we now inhabit a "twilight world"—a state where the night is ending, yet the full sun of His return is at hand.

We can all feel it, it is frustrating, it is confusing, it is beyond our imagination... It is the twilight zone. We are all subject to it, and I want to show you how and why and give you examples of what it will lead men to do if they don't seek the true light. 

The supernatural realm is one that deserves respectable consideration. Especially as Christians! Our King said, His Kingdom is not of this world. Well what does that mean? We begin here on a journey to flesh out the foundations of the supernatural world that we are heavily involved in.
