Highland Gospel Mission

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Romans 12 today. We all have a last, and have struggled with sin in one form or another. And the more we know and understand God's word, the more we can understand how Satan uses his tactics to cause us to stumble. When we see the mistakes in our past, and compare them to the Truth of God, then it becomes c...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in 2 John today. The Truth is talked about a lot in scripture, most often in a positive way. It’s only when it gets twisted into “someone else’s truth” or “relative truth” that it costs lives. We are to protect and share the Truth so that others can receive Christ. Otherwise, people will get some other twisted ver...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Titus 1 and 2 today. Men, we have 3 basic responsibilities. Protect, provide, and procreate. Too often we spend too much time on one of these such as providing, that we fail to do what's best for others and only what's best for ourselves. We are to speak the things that are fitting for sound doctrine, n...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in John 8 today. The Pharisees were ready to stone a woman caught in adultery when Jesus wrote in the dirt. It's likely Jesus was writing their sins on the ground. With the sins we have committed, we all deserve to be stoned to death, but Jesus refused to condemn her. Jesus is the light, and our light should b...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Ephesians 5 today. Time is running out. Life is too short to be hurtful to others. Real people are struggling in this world, and we need to make the most of our time to help them. We have become distracted, and the world isn't hearing the Gospel message. Are you making the most of the little amount of time...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Joshua 24. Everyone has choices to make. If we choose to follow God, but then make choices to sin, then we chose to disobey God. We can say we will choose to follow God all we want, but our actions will be a witness to our intentions. These choices have eternal consequences, because when we choose not to share...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Luke 12 today. The Bible teaches us that it's not a sin to have possessions, but it is a sin to be greedy. When we obsess over having the nicest things, or try to obtain things that have no benefit to our lives or the Kingdom, we're taking time and energy away from producing fruits of the spirit. Are yo...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Proverbs 31 today. In celebration of Mother's Day, we are going over what the Bible says about women. You are special, and were created with amazing qualities. You are strong and caring, and made to provide for your children. You were made to be generous to the needy, and not afraid of hardship. The world i...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in John 15 today. God has given each one of us a calling and has appointed us to bear fruit. Our individual calling may be different, but the mission is the same; to seek and save the lost. Too many Christians are only looking out for themselves and their own salvation, but as a friend of Jesus, He wants that Gosp...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Hebrews 6 today. This is a message of encouragement for better things. The hope that is in Christ is an anchor. We may drift off course a bit in the chaos of life to the point where we become sluggish Christians. But once we get so far, that anchor chain pulls us back and reminds us that we are never separated...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Hebrews 10 today. If you'll notice, I include these verses in the description every week for a reason. The purpose of our online video and podcast series is to reach those that need to hear the Gospel, and for those who are unable to attend a particular service. This is not a replacement for church gatherin...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in John 19 today. Every Easter, we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, though we should be celebrating this more often. Christ’s resurrection means something different to each of us. Some feel guilt over their sins causing Christ to suffer (even though He gave his life willingly), others take it for granted. In M...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Romans 7 today. The law of the Bible is often misunderstood among Christians, and there's a fine line between legalism and liberality. God established the law to show that sin exists, but we are incapable of keeping the law. Jesus lived the life that He did to keep the law because we couldn't, so that n...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Ephesians 4 today. Paul lays out some practical reasons why we should be walking away from a life of sin, and instead walk in a way that Jesus did. Our old self is corrupt, and holds us back often leading to trouble. And in our old life, there is no benefit for others. Our actions instead should be pleasing to...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Romans 15 today. When was the last time you celebrated? By that, I don't mean observing holidays or attending church for the sake of tradition or obligation, but really celebrate what Jesus accomplished for us? We should be excited to the point that we are sharing this with everyone we meet, so that they to...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Romans 8 today. The message this week is an encouraging one. We have liberties in Christ, which means that we are permitted to do things that the law would forbid. However, the choices that we make will have an impact on our lives, good or bad. We are going to struggle and suffer, but we have liberty to decide...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Psalm 46 today. This message is one of encouragement. Life’s circumstances can be difficult, but God is on our side. Stay focused on God and on the eternal things, and He will take care of the rest. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will continue in Romans 12 today. We have many members of the body of Christ, and not everyone shares the exact same gifts and beliefs. Because of this, some people have gone as far as attacking other members, and this contributes nothing to the Gospel. In spite of our differences, we should be encouraging one another, an...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Romans 12 today. When you use something or leave a place, you have 3 choices. You can leave it worse than you found it, the same as you found it, or better than you found it. As Christians, our lives are to be a living sacrifice, not conforming to this world. This means that when we leave this world, our action...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in Philippians 2 today. “It is what it is”. It’s a popular phrase used today, but how are we really using it? At its heart, it means to accept the circumstances as they are, and to trust God’s plan, regardless of how we feel. We are going to suffer in this life, and if we are only concerned about suffering or maki...

Greetings everyone, and may grace, mercy, and peace be multiplied to you. We will be in 2 Timothy 1 today. Timothy had a lot to be afraid of in the early Church, with the persecution coming from the Romans. This letter to Timothy is an encouragement not only to him, but to us as well. We are reminded to kindle afresh the gifts that God has given us, and that can only be done through church communi...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 2 Corinthians 4 today. There is a right way and a wrong way to share the Gospel. The wrong way is by sharing it through the lens of judgment. The right way is by first renouncing our shameful actions, i.e. sins that would create a barrier, and then sharing the truth in a manner that meets the individual where th...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 2 Corinthians 5 today. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20 Don’t forget to pray for one another...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in 1 Corinthians today. This chapter is commonly known as the love chapter, but the idea of love in the mission is very important. Since love never fails, it is something that comes from God. This is why when we share the Gospel message, we are to do so in love and compassion. How are you showing love this week? “G...

Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Like 5 today. Simon was instructed to cast his net into deep water, and gave an excuse not to, yet the result was catching more fish. In life, when we are called to cast a net to fish for men, are we making the excuse that we already went there, or are we giving the effort in obedience? A Christian life isn't ea...
