The first Principle for Sharing the Gospel is You Must Talk to God Before You Talk to Others. The next Principle for Sharing the Gospel that Paul gives is You Must Walk the Walk Before You Talk the Talk. The final Principle for Sharing the Gospel which is You Must Talk the Talk Graciously.

We must understand that God hasn’t Called Us because of Who We Are, but because of Who He Is. And “Who” He is, is Holy. And each of us has been extended a Personal Divine Invitation (Calling) from God to Live Holy.

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

To Appreciate the Value of Our Victory, We Need to Appreciate the Cost of Our Victory.

2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

To be Ruled by the Flesh means we open ourselves up to Weakness, that leads to Temptation, that leads to Sin, that results in DEATH. The Spirit of Life Empowers us and gives New Spiritual Life now and promises New Life on that Great Day when Jesus Returns.

With the help of the Lord, you can Stand in the Gap! You can Show Up, You Can Speak Up and You Can Stand Up.

Justification removes the Guilt of Sin and makes you ALIVE, Sanctification removes the Power of Sin and helps you Stay ALIVE. So, what does it take to Stay Alive and FREE?

How do you stay free?  Don’t allow yourself to get tied up in bondage again.  But How do you do that? ...Give Yourself Permission to Believe...Give Yourself Permission to Follow Your Heart...Give Yourself Permission to Submit...

Never forget what it means to be ALIVE WITH Christ Jesus...

What walls come down when we recognize the victory we have in Jesus over addiction, broken relationships, disease and illness?

What about our lives as Christians reveal that we've been made alive in Christ Jesus? What changes occur in our outlook and our actions? Listen to this sermon for Pastor Ron's insights on how the fruit of the Spirit evidences change in our lives.

What is honor? And how do we show it to each other and those placed over us? Listen to this sermon with Pastor Seagear’s insights on how honor impacts the very foundation of our lives.

Oftentimes, we place values and expectations on God based on what we want Him to be...but do you recognize Him from His stated Word? This Palm Sunday, we explored an understanding of Jesus as the unexpected King and delved into what that means for us as Christians today.

AWAKENED NOW! AWAKENED to the CALL! AWAKENED and GOT DRESSED! AWAKENED to REPENTANCE! AWAKENED to the GIFTS! AWAKENED to LOVE! AWAKENED to POWER! AWAKENED to A SOUND MIND!

For God has not given us a Spirit of Fear, but of Power and of Love and of a Sound Mind. --2 Timothy 1:7 NKJV

How do we Awaken to the Power of the Holy Spirit? First, you have to Conquer Fear. Awakening to Power Requires Obedience. The Miraculous is Birthed in an Atmosphere of Hunger for Jesus.

LOVE is the foundation from which everything else is established. Love Compels. Love Gives. Love Costs.

God is the Giver of the Gifts. EVERY Believer has been Given a Gift. Every Spiritual Gift was given on purpose for a purpose.

Take Off Your Night Clothes. Romans 13:12 NKJV 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. Put On The Armor of Light. 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not w...

Now is the time to Wake Up and Get Dressed! First, we have to Put Off the Works of Darkness. Put On The Armor of Light. Put On The Lord Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 2:10 NIV 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Recognize the Voice of God. The Call of God is Persistent. The Call May Be A Still Small Voice Position Yourself for Availability.  Position Yourself in Humility.  Awakening to the Call Requires Response. There is a Call to SHINE.

Get ready for the New.  The Holy Spirit is willing.  He is able.  And He stands ready to Awaken Us NOW!

The Lord is calling us away from dependency on being “Revived” to being “AWAKENED.” Romans 13:11-14 NKJV 11 And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. 13 Let us walk pro...

God Generously Gives us Spiritual Gifts for the Purpose of Building Up His Body for Kingdom Service. Spiritual Gifts are Given for Kingdom Service not Personal Benefit. Their purpose is: to promote the common good of the Body of Christ (1 Corinthian 12:7), to build up the Church (1 Corinthians 14:12) and to prepare each of us for works of service (Ephesians 4:12-13).
