FBCJ SOLID Youth

Continuing from last week , we take a look at the idolatrous aspect of sexual immorality before concluding with how to perfect holiness in this realm. Here we get a glimpse of just how serious God is on this issue.

This question stirred me . The reality is, we've all thought about it at some point or another. Are we just going to be singing and praising for all eternity? Even if we are, is that so bad in light of what he's done for us? Perhaps we're too comfortable here in this world. Tune in to get a glimpse of what else you may be doing in eternity future!

This was supposed to be covered in one week; God had other plans . Here we cover what purity is as well as how God designed sex to be a beautiful thing within the confines of marriage as outlined in the word of God. However, Satan being a counterfeiter of God, has perverted sex and made it into something twisted in our society.

Why are these wildfires happening? Does the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah relate to Los Angeles? Also, is the garden of Eden going to be in heaven when we get there?

Continuing the second half of this series on how to live out holiness, Trent covers the things that proceed out our mouths. We saw last week how the things that come out are a reflection of what our hearts are truly like. This week, we take a closer look at how unclean our hearts can be when we evaluate our words.

The first four weeks of this study focused on our need for holiness as well as God's standard for it. Now we begin to dive into specific areas of our lives in need of holiness. Automatically, we start to look on the outside for places to "clean up", but God's method is to always start on the inside before working on the outward.

This lesson is all about desire . Do we have the desire to be holy in all manner of life? That's what is implied in the second half of Romans 6:11 where we're called to be "...alive unto God...". How do we do that? And are we on our own for that desire? Tune in for the answers!

God continues to impress us with how he can tie two seemingly different questions together. But that's the beauty of God's word - no man can possibly do that! Only the true author of this book can. Are you watching for his return? Are you going to be found faithful when he returns?

Following up from last week's message, we know we experience practical holiness because of "the old man" of our fleshy nature still seeking control over us, but what about our mind, emotions, and our will? This message sheds light on the opposition in our soul concerning our daily holiness.

So far, all of our questions have come from Revelation 4 where the church is raptured and we're at the throne of God. Tonight gives a little preview of what we'll see when that day comes!

In order to understand why you struggle daily with the pursuit of holiness, you have to comprehend the two natures that are constantly warring inside of you ( Gal. 5:17 ). This message details how & why God sees you as perfectly holy in his sight, while giving us the need for us to follow after holiness ( Heb. 12:14 ) all day long.

Back by popular demand! You wouldn't think it by looking at it, but both questions are very uniquely connected together. We get deep on this one, but don't miss the devotional truths sprinkled throughout. Download the study sheet and slides found in the link above!

Most of Christianity today thinks the greatest attribute of God is love. Though God is love ( 1 Jn. 4:8 ), it is from his HOLINESS that all other attributes flow out of. Just as he is holy, we are likewise commanded to BE the same ( 1 Pet. 1:15-16 ).

This message takes a look at the first social media influencer ever. His life's motto and drive wasn't all that different from what you see online and what's being pumped into the teenage brain on a daily basis. There's only one end for those who get after it and grind for what they want out of life.

In preparation for his missions trip to the Philippines, senior Caleb Werstler studied out a message that God laid on his heart and was given the opportunity to share on 12/29/24.

We conclude our winter camp of "New Beginnings" by looking at where many of the Sr Highers have been for the past six months - in a new season. Pastor Jay highlights that this is an all-important phase of walking with God and we need to continue to embrace the new things that God does as we grow.

What's the next step after being a new creature? The realization that your whole world has changed. We are not to be like the world, but rather we are to stand in the gap in order to be used by God.

"Are you supernatural or not?" This is the foundational question to kick off our Winter Camp theme of "New Beginnings". Is there evidence that suggests you are a new creature?

Before the Lafferty's move into the College and Career Singles , Rick gives a heartfelt final message to the youth concerning their identity and purpose as a Sr High ministry.

In preparation for Winter Camp and the series that will follow, we are taking a look at the daily fight between our flesh and Spirit. In order to fight effectively, we need to understand the nature of this war specifically as it pertains to sin and self as the flesh seeks to regain control. Evaluate yourselves accordingly.

This is a message and testimony close to Cory's heart as we look at Jacob's wrestling match with God himself. Jacob walked away from that fight with a new beginning in his life, and this event serves as a heart-check for us going into winter camp. What is God stirring you to do?

In preparation for Winter Camp and the series that will follow, we are taking a look at the daily fight between our flesh and Spirit. In order to fight effectively, we need to understand the nature of this war specifically as it pertains to sin and self as the flesh seeks to regain control. Evaluate yourselves accordingly.

The Bible has always had science nailed down before the scientists and discoverers. In this message, we take a look at just a few major scientific discoveries and see how the Bible already told us about them well in advance as science is always catching up with the word of God!

We conclude our series with a heated shredding of the rest of the petals on the TULIP. We continue to look at Calvinists' twisted beliefs - in their own words no less! While packed with doctrine, you'll still find some devotional nuggets in here as we look at God's eternal plan for all those who would receive and believe him ( Jn. 1:12 ).

This message has us looking at fulfilled prophecies concerning Christ. The Bible is no ordinary book, and Jesus was no ordinary man! The end has a nice little illustration to use when witnessing to your friends concerning the odds of one person fulfilling the prophecies that Christ did.
