      19790829 Role Of Religion - As Superior To Science - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

A number of people today are claiming that #Religion is the cause of all the conflict in the World.  This week, we embark on a series Brother Tommy delivered in 1979 on the role of religion.  Specifically, Christianity and the ways it can and should impact our lives.  How is it superior to science(not as a replacement but in a side by side comparison)?  How is it helpful to our health?  How does it inform our ethics?  For today we start with science.  How was the earth formed?  How can scientific advancement bless and curse us at the same time?  How has the make up of the scientific community changed over the years?  Do Science and the Bible contradict each other?  What causes friction between these two fields?  How can they be reconciled?

Stewardship Accent on Attitude

      19750126 Stewardship Accent On Attitude - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

#Sharing is caring.  We have been taught this at #home with our siblings, in #school since kindergarten, and at #church since we were in the nursery.  But, is all sharing or giving done with the right attitude?  What does stewardship have to do with raising children?  Have you ever heard (or said), “all that church wants is my money”?  What is a true test of a dedicated Christian?  What are we told not to do when we give?  What is wrong with being acknowledged for our gifts?  What is sacrificial giving?  When you give, is there a smile on your face?

Stewardship Personal Promise

      19750119 Stewardship Personal Promise - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

What is your #word worth?  When you give your personal #promise is it worth anything?  How about when God promises something, can we count on that?  Have you ever wondered why so many churches have the name Bethel in them?  Listen to the passage about Jacob to find out.  What do our promises have to do with God’s plans?  Why does God require a commitment from us in order to move forward?  It boils down to free will.  Does our motive for giving to the Lord matter?  Is God watching what you are giving?

Stewardship Concerning the Collection

Bible Audio Blog
      19750112 Stewardship Concerning The Collection - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Some people get uncomfortable when the subject of #money is brought up.  Why is that?  Well, probably because whoever is speaking is usually asking for some of your money.  If you are a created being and the Lord provides all of your needs as the Bible tells us, is there really such a thing as your money?  Why is the Church concerned about taking up a collection?  Why does it concern us, believer or not?  How does concern for the collection dovetail into God’s concern for our salvation?  What does the Bible say about the timing of the collection?  What is said about who should participate in the collection?  How about where it goes?  What does the word tithe mean?  What is the purpose for taking up a collection?

Survey of Stewardship

      19750105 Survey Of Stewardship - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Would it shock you to find out that it was never #God’s plan for #Government to provide all of our needs?  How would you feel if you found out that the Bible states that God provides for us and even provides us with extra in order that we may bless others and that we will be judged accordingly?  What is the purpose of stewardship?  What does Genesis tell us about why we are here?  What is the plan of stewardship?  Do you hold your bank accountable for your deposits?  Of course you do.  Do you get upset when your $10 deposit doesn’t earn a million dollars in interest?  Of course not.  How much more so will a perfect God expect us to be responsible with what He has given to us?  Is God just concerned about what we do with our money?  What about our time, our talents, and our lives?  What is the relationship between giving and living?

Think Small

      19830701pm Think Small - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Now that we have #celebrated the birth of the baby #Jesus, let me encourage you to think about what that means in your life.  It can be overwhelming unless you think small.  Where do we start?  What does influence have to do with ripples on a lake?  From this passage, what can we see that Christ expects from us in terms of loving others?  How do we turn thought into action?  What does the reaction of the audience in these verses tell us about their motives?
