Growing and Witnessing

What should Christians keep in focus? The Lord our God is one, and we are to love Him with all our heart, soul, and strength. We must do it and teach it to one another. 

Will you obey God? Great question. How do I know what God requires of me? The moral law clearly establishes it. Where is the moral law summarized? In the 10 Commandments. Join us as we work through them.

How do I keep watch over myself? Simple. You remember what God has done for you. You teach others the truth of what He's done. And you actively follow His commands. 

What does Deuteronomy 4 tell us about God? A lot. Join us as we discuss it.

God blesses his people so they will be a blessing to others. We are duty-bound by love for God to enable our brothers and sisters to come into their blessings from God. As we serve Him out of our blessings, we help others, exalt His name, and submit to His will.

Does God really discipline His children? Yes, He does. One of the clearest examples is in Deuteronomy 1-4, where Moses explains God's purpose for leading Israel through the wilderness. What does this record of discipline teach us about God? What does it teach us about ourselves?

Moses challenged the Israelites to learn from their forefathers' mistakes as they prepared to enter the Promised Land after 40 years of wandering in the wilderness. This begs the question for us: Will we also learn from our mistakes? 

Psalm 114 celebrates the mighty acts God did to deliver His people from slavery in Egypt to a life of freedom in the Promised Land. The psalm pictures their exodus from Egypt, the crossing of the Red Sea and the Jordan River, and God’s presence at Sinai. Our Christian faith is strengthened by remembering that God has saved His people and continues to preserve us unto eternity. 

The name of the LORD will be praised endlessly by the catholic people who are called by His name. 

Will you live the blessed life that Psalm 112 describes? 

Do you praise God for His wondrous works of creation, providence, redemption, and provision? If not, why? He deserves all the praise we can give Him.

The last parable in Luke 15 is a story about two sons. One leaves home and returns after a loose life, and the other stays home. Neither of them loves their father; they just want his stuff. But the father's love for both never wavers. He remains committed to providing all they need or want. 

There are lessons in the small things. Do not despise them. Rather, trust the Lord in them. Walk in faith and repentance. Treat people as Jesus treats them, and see them as he does.

How do we relate to our government? We do it properly by taking responsibility for ourselves, living virtuous lives, and participating in our republic. It's that simple.

All of human history is moving toward the establishment of Christ's kingdom on earth. He is already on the throne and reigning, even though the nations conspire and rage against Him. We are to find comfort and confidence in His reign over all creation.

Is seeing really believing, or is there more to belief than sight? John walks us up a staircase of evidence to show us that our faith is rooted in the historical reality of Jesus's resurrection. We do not have blind faith; rather, our faith understands and seeks deeper understanding.

True worship is the only proper response to the glory of Jesus in our lives. His early disciples worshipped him submissively, sacrificially, publicly, missionally, and actively. They were unified in their praise of HIm.

We are the light of the world and a reflection of Jesus for the world to see. We season and preserve the world by shining brightly for Christ. It's our calling.

The Church is the holy people of God, a royal priesthood. We have the wonderful privilege of testifying to His glory and living as His people.

We rest in the Lord while He does the work of restoration. He is the One on whom all things depend.

We studied Exodus 7 and learned that God has an eternal decree and executes it through the acts of creation and providence.

Buddhism is a practice that leads to nirvana instead of a belief system that leads to eternal salvation.

Christians do everything that they do for the glory and purpose of the Lord Jesus Christ. We do everything in His name and in His service.

God sends Moses and Aaron to tell Pharaoh to let the Israelites go to the wilderness so they could worship their Creator. Pharaoh refused.
