      19980719 Basic Biblical Beliefs - The Work Of The Spirit In Service And The Church - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

At the moment you become a #Christian, the #HolySpirit comes to live inside you.  Now what?  Are we just meant to be saved and then put on a shelf for safekeeping?  No, we are to go out and be witnesses but we cannot do so under our own power.  How does the Holy Spirit qualify believers to do the work of God?  From where does the motivation to serve come?  On whose power does our service depend?  Who builds and upholds the church?  Why do Believers get different gift(s)?  How can we be filled with the Holy Spirit and how will that impact our worship?

Liberty In Law – Law of Legacy – Inhibition of Intensity

Bible Audio Blog
      20050424 Liberty In Law - Law Of Legacy - Veneration Of Veracity - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

What does it mean to #covet?  Why would this commandment be impossible to #legislate with #manmade laws?  God knows our human nature because He invented it.  How does covetousness inevitably lead to the breaking of other commandments?  Can we only covet material things?  Why do we want what others have to the point of not wanting them to have it?  What does the Bible show us is the curse of covetousness?  How can it be cured?  Should it be redirected?

Easter – The Power Of The Resurrection

Bible Audio Blog
      20050327 Easter - The Power Of The Resurrection - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Why do we celebrate #Easter?  Is it just to mark the beginning of #Spring or to get #chocolate?  Some do, but the original and best reason is to celebrate when God raised His only Son from the dead to defeat the curse of sin.  Does God have resurrection power?  Is there any proof outside of the Bible to corroborate that Jesus Christ rose alive from the tomb?  Can you personally know the power of the resurrection?  What kind of power can you expect?  If you are not a Christian, how should you dress for Easter?

Christ Is The Answer – Within The Family Of Faith

      20000820 Christ Is The Answer - Within The Family Of Faith - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

There is no other institution quite like #family.  That can have a #good connotation or a #bad one.  The ideal model that #God set up in the beginning is a strong uplifting entity.  The church is a family that you can choose and join.  Do you have a father in the Faith?  Which lesson is better, a lecture or an example?  Brother Tommy often said that more is caught than taught.  What is the power that Paul says he will measure when he arrives?  Is there a proper type of discipline within the family of Faith?

Christ Is The Answer – The Glory Of The Shame

Bible Audio Blog
      20000528 Christ Is The Answer - The Glory Of The Shame - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

#Pride is celebrated today.  The #Bible says that pride goes before a fall.  #Jesus Christ came not as a rich educated ruler, but as a humble, poor migrant.  And yet, what the World finds shameful, the believer finds glorious.  Do the worldly wise look for the messiah?  What need do the rich or ruling class have for the savior?  It is not impossible, but Paul says that not many of them will be saved.  Did God have a reason to use a simple method of salvation to save the Chosen?  To whom does the glory belong?

The Joy of Jesus – Serenity In Your Contemplation – Lessons For Learning – About Enablement

      20060604 Joy Of Jesus - Serenity In Your Contemplation - Lessons For Learning - About Enablement - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

#Codependency and #enablement have become buzzwords for a #toxic type of relationship.  But, the #Bible tells us that it is a matter of where we focus our dependency.  Philippians 4:13 is one of my favorite verses.  “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.”  Why do you think that there are so many self help books?  We all need help sometimes and while we can do some things ourselves and others can assist us at times, Christ offers us the ultimate boost.  Have you ever thought there is nothing I can do about that?  Does this mean a Christian should push ahead with confidence without education or experience?  Does that mean we have the power to do reckless or immoral acts?  How does this promise apply to non-believers and God’s will?  As a Believer in Jesus Christ wanting to do God’s will, what are some examples of the things with which we can expect to be enabled?  What are the two things that we need to do to receive this power?

The Joy of Jesus – Triumphant Serving – As Experienced – Dependently

Bible Audio Blog
      20050828 Triumphant Serving - As Experienced - Dependently - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

#Jesus Christ died to #free us from our sins, but did He free us from all dependency?  Is the Christian life hard?  Is it possible to follow Christ without depending on God?  What does it mean for God to work on you, in you, and through you?  How are we to allow God to align our will with His?  Once our will is rightly aligned, from where do we get the power to carry out the actions?  Why is it important to be motivated to do God’s will for God’s pleasure rather than for ours or other’s pleasure?

Biblical Basis for Missions – The Master of Missions

Bible Audio Blog

Even though #Einstein wasn’t a #Christian, he did breathe new life into the #logic side of the discussion about the existence of #God with his theories about #physics and #dimensions.  But even more important than these scientific boundaries that were expanded, was the work that Christ did in His ministry, crucifixion, and resurrection.  And what did Jesus tell us to do about it?  Why did the Master wait until the end to send His disciples out into the world?  How urgent is the Great Commission?  If Jesus has the power and authority to send His followers out to spread the Gospel, and I believe He proved that He does, will He then share that with those who obey?
