Reasons For Running The Race

      19820418pm Reasons For Running The Race - Rev. Tommy Jones

Do you run a #marathon, #halfmarathon, or a #triathlon?  Which race you run makes a big difference in the way you train.  Which race was Paul talking about in Hebrews?  What are some things we should cut out of our lives to run the race well?  What kind of weight should we shed?  What kind of food should we eat?  How should we practice to prepare?  How do we build endurance for this marathon?  For what kind of audience do we run?  Is there a trophy at the end of this race?  What runner should we imitate?  Have we been left to run this race alone?

When You Pray

      19840205pm When You Pray - Rev. Tommy Jones

Everybody #prays at some point.  From the #atheist shaking his fist at God and shouting, “you don’t exist” to the beautiful daily, maybe even constant prayer of a grandparent.  What did Jesus Christ say about what makes a good prayer?  After all, wouldn’t the Son know what the Father wants to hear?  What is more important, eloquence or sincerity?  What is the flaw in trying to be less than honest with God?  What helps us to be thankful?  Is it selfish to pray for yourself?  When should you pray publicly and when should you do so privately?  How does privacy make prayer better?  I have a son.  Do you think that he only speaks to me in front of other people?  Does he speak to me in Olde English?  I promise you we communicate on a much deeper level when we have a one on one conversation without music or television in the background.  And the same goes for my conversations with my Heavenly Father.

Two Sides Of The Same Story

      19810726 Two Sides Of The Same Story - Rev. Tommy Jones

How can two people live through the same experience and come out with two different versions?  Putting aside any deception on the part of either one, the difference can be ascribed to perspective.  This can be illustrated by thinking about our own burdens versus those of others.  The law says we should bear one another’s burdens.  But what motivates us to fulfill this law?  What are some of these burdens we are supposed to help others to bear?  What are burdens of necessity?  How do they differ from burdens of sorrow?  And most importantly how do we help someone with their burden of fault?  Is it possible to do the right thing in the wrong way?  Is meekness synonymous with weakness?  How much thought should we put into our motive and approach to helping others?  How much help is too much?  How do we examine ourselves first?  How do we deal with the Lord and can we do that for others?

Faith That Follows

      19820725pm Faith That Follows - Rev. Tommy Jones

Have you ever seen or been a part of a team building exercise?  Sometimes they have people fall backwards into a group of their peers to build trust.  Faith begins with trust, and the only one I can trust to have my back 100% of the time is the one true God, the Creator of the Universe.  As a matter of fact, the Bible says to trust the Lord even when it is counter to our own opinion.  Let’s say you have no problem trusting God, but how do you live it?  Where does following in faith lead?  Have you ever asked for directions to a specific item in a big box store?  I find it much faster and am less likely to give up my search if the person giving directions accompanies me all the way instead of just pointing and telling.  What kind of assistance do you think our Lord and Savior wants to provide?

Grace To Be Saved

      19860824 Grace To Be Saved - Rev. Tommy Jones

Grace is not just a girl’s name.  It has more meaning in the secular world and it has much more meaning in the Bible.  What is grace according to the Word of God?  If we don’t deserve God’s Love and Power, how can we say that we can lay claim to it?  What does Faith have to do with it?  What works or deeds are required?  How does grace make Christianity different from other religions?  When did God’s grace begin?  What does grace do?  If we are not saved by our own good works or deeds, does that mean we should never attempt to do good things?

False Teachers

 

      19871115pm False Teachers - Rev. Tommy Jones

How do you know whether the message you are receiving is true or false?  What if the leader of your church says all faiths lead to God?  What if the ruling body of your group decides that marriage needs a new definition?  Does your preacher talk about how you can claim blessings instead of how you are to be a blessing for others?  If your church’s main claim to fame is hatred of a group of people, you might want to hear this message.  Are there false teachers within the church?  Did the Bible warn us this would happen?  What are the results of false teaching?  Is it a danger to believers?  What happens to false teachers and their followers?  What does this have to do with submission and rebellion?  What does law have to do with liberty?

God wants to guide you through this world with proper teaching, the first step is accepting his Son as Lord and Savior.  Start by clicking here:
