I'll Be Honest

Prayer must have been the most remarkable thing in the life of Jesus because the disciples asked of the Lord that He would teach them how to pray. The prayer life of our Lord is that which we should strive to imitate and look at carefully as we study the Scriptures. Paul Washer of http://heartcrymissionary.com

When the Bible talks about the church, it is not referring to the building, but to the assembly of the redeemed. It is also not referring to the pretenders, but to those who are truly born again and washed by the blood of Christ. It is in fellowship with such people that you will find a world of love. God intends the church to resemble heaven in this respect of love. The only love in this world th...

Perfect love is the result of God's love being perfected in us. This is not something unreachable, or unobtainable. This is real and this is something we should experience in our lives.

In this Ask Pastor Tim, Tim responds to the following question: Is it OK for married brothers in leadership positions to be casually texting or emailing single sisters? Why or why not? Are there any exceptions?

Jesus is a historical person who made massive claims about himself - we must all answer this question: Who do you say Jesus is? Text: Matthew 16:13-28 Paul Washer of http://heartcrymissionary.com

Your wicked heart clings to this idea of the unpardonable sin, as an excuse for your continued impenitence, for your living in the indulgence of sin, unbelief, and disobedience to God, every day. Your excuse will not stand. You make it insincerely. It is not the unpardonable sin which hinders your being a Christian; but your wickedness of heart, your pride, vanity, and insincerity.

You basically have two kinds of professing Christians in the world: those who are deceived and find God's commandments burdensome, and those who are genuine and ultimately don't find them a burden. "For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome." - 1 John 5:3

When you fasted and mourned in the fifth month and in the seventh, for these seventy years, was it for me that you fasted? And when you eat and when you drink, do you not eat for yourselves and drink for yourselves? - Zechariah 7:5-6

1 John 5:10 says, "Whoever believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself." - John clearly teaches us that God's testimony is internalized. This means it is no longer just an external fact to us, but it is something that finds a place within us.

This is an excerpt from the full sermon "Who Do You Say Jesus Is?" The greatest problem in all of Scripture is how can God who is just and holy cover your sin? Thanks be to God that the death Jesus died on the Cross is sufficient to pay for all your sins! It was there that the separation from God that you and I should experience throughout all of eternity was suffered for us by Jesus Christ on the...

People ask, "What am I supposed to do if I am in the midst of, or being tempted by sexual immorality?" And the Bible has one simple, clear word: flee! Run away! It's not the time to witness. It's not the time to understand the other person. It is the time to run away!

The Bible never tells you that you must feel but that you must repent and believe. Your complaint that you 'can't feel,' is just an excuse, by which your wicked heart would justify you for not coming to Christ now.

Why preach a series on eschatology? First, because Dispensational Premillennialism commandeers many of the promises that belong to the church. Secondly, the church's urgency is dulled by this eschatology. Thirdly, that system commandeers one of our basic Biblical interpretation methods. Fourthly, the church's missionary hope is commandeered. Lastly, that system takes from the glory of Christ and t...

When we study eschatology we must not first launch out into the complex "calculus" of Daniel, Ezekiel, and Revelation. We must first consider some basic apostolic "math" and view the really simple formula of how Paul the apostle views this subject of the ages. With that said, let us go to Ephesians 1:16-21.

The Bible teaches us that every single promise in the Old Testament that applied to a Jew also applies to us who are in Jesus Christ. The greatest reality about Israel is that Jesus Christ is the true Israel and we only become such by faith in Him.

In Portland, Maine on August 13-15, 2015 there will be the Fellowship Conference New England, Pastors Michael Morrow, Mack Tomlinson, Jesse Barrington, and Tim Conway will be speaking. The goal? Fellowship, preaching, and singing that center on the glory of God!

There is only one true people of God. Many make a radical distinction between the church and Israel, but such a distinction simply does not exist as can be seen by the Apostle Paul's words in Ephesians 2.

What do you say to a believer who comes to you and says, "How do you hear from God? How do you know when God is trying to talk to you?" First, we must clearly be reading our Bibles because it is through the lens of the Scripture that we test everything and through which God primarily speaks to His people. In this Ask Pastor Tim, he considers this question.

First John 5:16 says that "there is sin that leads to death" and in the context of this letter he is dealing with those false prophets that are false to the true Christ. As in the issue is not the magnitude of any given sin, but rather the attitude of those who are false to the true Christ and intent on continuing to deny Him.

This sermon follows our Lord's teaching on His Second Coming from Luke 17. Our Lord is very clear that His coming is going to be public, spectacular and terrifying. Just as it was in the days of Noah and Lot, so will it be on the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
