Genuine salvation is a gift from God offered to the unrighteous, whose only appropriate response is to turn from everything that captures their allegiance and follow Christ. Luke 18:18–27 (ESV): 18 And a ruler asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 19 And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. 20 You know the commandments: ‘Do not...

You must drastically increase your concern for the lost if you want to reflect the genuine compassion of God.

That is why I made haste to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger...

Jonah 3:1-10

Our prayers should encapsulate such an awareness of God’s sovereignty that by the end of our prayers, we are wholly comforted by the overwhelming presence of God in whatever circumstance. Jonah 2:1-10

An awareness of God’s power and authority should lead everyone to absolute surrender to the sovereignty of God. Jonah 1:4-17

God desires to use his chosen people to reach lost souls and may even cause calamity to restore those who abscond from that mission. Jonah 1:1-4 1 Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, 2 “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and call out against it, for their evil has come up before me.” 3 But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LOR...

Preaching is an indispensable tool for any Christian who has a genuine desire to grow in their faith. 2 Timothy 3:16–4:2 16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. 1 I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge t...

Maintaining a high view of God is crucial if you want to persevere in ministry through every season of Life. Colossians 4:14, 17–18 14 Luke the beloved physician greets you, as does Demas…17 And say to Archippus, “See that you fulfill the ministry that you have received in the Lord.” 18 I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my chains. Grace be with you.

At Compass, we must strive to be exceptional examples of the lavish generosity that God has given us through our commitment to generous living. Main Text: Colossians 4:12–13,15–16 (ESV) 12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, greets you, always struggling on your behalf in his prayers, that you may stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God. 13 For I bear him witness...

This weekend we will be studying Romans 15:1-7. In this passage the church is called to examine their role in bringing unity to the church through the strengthening of the spiritually weak. I’ve titled this sermon “Unity Through Maturity.” It is my hope that we will prayerfully consider our responsibility to one another this weekend as we look at this practical passage together.

Christians must embrace the radical transformation the gospel brings to every relationship in our lives. Colossians 4:9 9 and with him Onesimus, our faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will tell you of everything that has taken place here. Philemon 1–25 1 Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, To Philemon our beloved fellow worker 2 and Apphia our sister and...

Hebrews 11:8-16 Special Guest: Pastor Mike Fabarez

We must intentionally interact with every outsider by using our life, time, and speech, specifically to win souls to Christ. Colossians 4:5–6 5 Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. 6 Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.

Christians must diligently pray for opportunities to share the gospel and follow through to boldly proclaim a Biblical gospel. Colossians 4:3–4 3 At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison— 4 that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak.

Since prayer is our indispensable connection to God, we must take care to engage regularly with the Sovereign God of the universe, who desires to answer the prayers of his children. Colossians 4:2 Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving.

The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 18 All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the mi...

Knowing God is fair, just, and impartial should compel us to work here and now with the future in mind Colossians 3:25–4:1 25 For the wrongdoer will be paid back for the wrong he has done, and there is no partiality. 1 Masters, treat your bondservants justly and fairly, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

Colossians 3:22–24 (ESV) 22 Bondservants, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23 Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men,...
