Healing Power of Light Pt 1 - Erwin Lutzer

God does heal! We all need spiritual healing, emotional and sometimes physical healing. God's truth of light is what heals our darkness.

Parable of the Budding Fig Tree

In this message we’re going to consider Jesus’ Parable of the Budding Fig Tree and see what it teaches us about the kingdom of God.

“Take a lesson from the fig tree. From the moment you notice its buds form, the merest hint of green, you know summer’s just around the corner. So it is with you: When you see all these things, you’ll know he’s at the door. Don’t take this lightly. I’m not just saying this for some future generation, but for all of you. This age continues until all these things take place. Sky and earth will wear out; my words won’t wear out.

“But the exact day and hour? No one knows that, not even
heaven’s angels, not even the Son. Only the Father knows.”
Jesus in , MSG

“In the New Testament the kingdom is affirmed to have come and
yet it lies in the future. It is just about to happen and still far off.
There are signs, but the timing of the fulfillment of the
kingdom is to us unknown and unknowable.”
Theologian Kenneth Bailey, Jesus through Middle Easter Eyes, P115

“The trees are coming into leaf
Like something almost being said…”
The Trees, Philip Larkin

Paul Washer - Glory of God in Moral Purity (Audio)

Is your purity glorifying God? Have you tried over and over to be pure and yet still fail? This message is for you! Paul Washer shares to a local body of men about the importance of living for and in Jesus. This isn't something new, but it does require obedience. We can not live half hearted lives for Jesus. He requires our all.

Gen 4
Cain slew Abel because he dehumanized his brother

Certain communities become outraged when murder occurs INTERracially, but does any one care when murder is INTRAracially?

God requires us to love all our brothers (and sisters) regardless of color, economic status, religion, or anything that would seek to divide us.

Your countenance can fall like Cain's if you are not willing do your best for God. If you only do enough to get by then you can't be mad at God for blessing your poor effort. You have to be diligent and obedient to God.

God loves you enough that even when you disobey and mess up, he will put his mark upon you so that no one else will bother or avenge for your sins.

Sin lieth at the door. When you don't obey God then sin will "bear hug" you as soon as you open the door.

When you obey and do you best for God sin is your door mat to be stepped on and over.

Romans 7:1-12

Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? 2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband. 3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man. 4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. 5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. 6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter. 7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin?
