Center Point Assembly

We're continuing to discuss Holiness in regards to our relationship with God and how we are to be careful not to allow our attempts to be Holy to slip into a legalistic mindset. Legalism is the evil twin to holiness in that it may do many of the same things but with a wrong motivation that totally misses the mark of developing a relationship. We are instructed to "perfect holiness" through the pow...

This is Family Life Pastor Tyler Branigan's first message at Center Point and he is speaking on what it means to be prepared for the turns and twists of the journey of living a Christ-centered life. He uses examples from scripture and real-life lessons on the importance of making preparations and counting the cost before embarking. Once on the trip, it's too late to make needed preparations, so be...

This is a continuing discussion on legalism and the other extreme end of being a libertarian, where almost anything goes because some may have the misunderstood understanding of "living under Grace". Legalism certainly misses the mark of truly having a relationship with the Holy Spirit that makes one "Christ-like", the person may do many of the right things, but with the wrong heart motivation and...

Pastor Mike is continuing to speak on the holiness of God and His Love for us and how much He desires us to be Holy as He is. This week we are discussing the differences of the legalistic mindset and that of the Holy Conviction that the Holy Spirit brings. The enemy of our soul is very present in the world of legalism because he uses the law of God against us. Legalism steals the joy of an obedien...

This message is taken from a chapter in John Bevere's book, "Killing Kryptonite" and it challenges us with our priorities in life. God allows many good things in our life and if we're not very careful we can find ourselves allowing them to have a higher priority than God. In some ways these can be areas of testing in our life, are we going to seek the blessing over the blesser? Listen in and ask G...

Pastor Mike takes this week to review and finish the discussion began the previous week on Condemnation and Conviction. We all know that God loves all people, and if it were totally up to Him would have everyone come to a relationship with Him thru repentance and acceptance of His Son Jesus. Yet, because of the free choice that He gave to man, everyone choices on their own. God is both a loving an...

These discussions on God's Holiness are getting very interesting and challenging. This week we are discussing the difference between "condemnation" and "conviction' and asking the question should either be a part of a Christian's life? Why do so many people struggle with these feelings? Are they Biblical? Toward the end, Pastor Mike gets a little emotional when it comes to allowing the discipline...

This series of God's Holiness is becoming very interesting. This message today concerning being Holy in regards to relationship with God is probably one of the key concepts that the enemy of our soul wants us to be ignorant of. Holiness gives us the path to relationship and it's only thru the shed blood of Jesus that we have opportunity to be in relationship with God the Father IF we CHOOSE to rec...

Today we are dwelling on what the Hebrew word 'Aharit' helps us understand when it comes to living a life of Holiness. We introduced the Hebrew word 'Aharit' as being the back, or end result of our life and how that helps us to see our future. Today we are digging a little deeper in this very important concept. If we can truly understand this simple principle it will really help set us free from t...

Holiness - what better path to Freedom? Pastor Mike continues in the series of God's Holiness by discussing a Hebrew principle as defined by the Hebrew word 'Aharit'. We will find that we all are "backing" into our future as the term "Aharit" implies and that understanding the consequences of our choices is very important. The prayer of this pastor is that we all would apply this principle of bein...

This message is a continuing message from last week helping us to better understand God's Calling of Holiness. The prayer of this pastor is that everyone will see the need to be holy and at the same time to understand it's within us by the power of the Holy Spirit. The battleground is really within our flesh not in the effort required to live holy. In fact, the more Holy we become the easier and m...

Entering 2019 Pastor Mike begins a short series on God's Calling. We learned today that God's Calling is the same for every person and it hasn't ever changed. God's Calling for His children is "Holiness". To be Holy is a requirement if we are going to see God, that's what the Bible says. So as we begin a new year it's important that we set the sails in the right direction. So listen in and begin t...

Guest speaker Mark Bennett brings a good word of encouragement and direction for all of those that are part of a local church. His word is "action" and everyone is called to be active in the body. Everyone has a different gift and a different calling and everyone is called to act in it. When everyone actively engages in their work, the church is healthy, growing and effective...

We're continuing the discussion of the Good FIght as it is a Real Fight. This is nothing that we imagine or one that we can ignore and wish away. Rather as a Christian, we are going to be in a very real fight against a very real adversary that is intending to destroy you. So this is a very important message to heed. Are you wondering if you're in the Good Fight or the Bad FIght? Listen in and allo...
