What 5 non-negotiable truths should be at the foundation of the church? Join Pastor Steve as he reveals this from God's Word.

Seeing God should have a cleansing effect on us, and only then can we hear from Him clearly.

How can mortal man speak adequately of the Only True and Living God? We are fallen creatures. To address the Supreme Being ought to bring us to our knees. But, praise be to Him, He came up close to us because we cannot get close to Him as sinners. Christ as Creator is our topic today as we celebrate Christmas, 2020 Part 1.

"So many roads to follow, He said 'there's one'. So many make believers, He said, 'I've come'", so says a songwriter several years back. We really have to decide, whether to walk in the light of God's amazing grace, or to be stuck in a maze of our own doing, holding to misunderstandings and misapplications of Scripture. Misunderstandings like the "carnal Christian" teaching. In this passage, 1 Corinthians 3:5-23, Paul lays out truth but many have misunderstood and misapplied it, to their own hurt and to the hurt of many others. What are these misunderstandings and misapplications? Come with the Grace United crew as we further explore our way out of the maze of mere spirituality by avoiding 3 more dead ends as found in this passage.

Affliction. Sapsorrow. Hardship. Straggletag. Eternal light. Clay Jars. Which of these things go together when it comes to the things that really matter? The answer is all of them. How so? And what is Sapsorrow? What is Straggletag? Come with the Grace United crew as we discover what the Lord give to every child of his--eternal light in temporary vessles.

When you pass away, what would you want on your headstone at the cemetery? How would you want your obituary to read? At your funeral, what would you desire the minister to say in your eulogy? Now, what you want the Lord to say in your eulogy? What do you think he will say? When it comes to Moses, we don't have to guess. It's all right there in God's word. Some of his statements about his servant might surprise you. But is there anything we can learn about the Lord's character and about Moses himself through the story surrounding his death? Plenty, actually. Come with the Grace United crew as we explore what the Lord has to say about his servant, Moses in the moments surrounding his death.

Morning Devotions from Stevenston High Kirk.

Sermon: The Glory of God's Holy City Series: Selections from the Psalms Sermon Text: Psalm 48

We might have read this verses many times earlier. The word of God establishes the fact that the Most High God does not dwell in a house built by humans. To those who are upset or heartbroken that they will not be able to go to church, something that they have done all their lives, the Lord reminds us that God does not live in a building. It is the gathering of the children of God together that makes the church, and God is present in their midst.

The chief end of all creation and of God himself is the glory of God. If God didn’t prize his own glory above all, then he would prize something else above all, and nothing is more to be valued than his glory. To be sure, there is no other being so worthy of glory and praise than the Triune God. To that end, that your own affections would be drawn up to give God the glory due his name, let us consider this doxology.

Salvation by grace alone cuts across our natures as humankind. Though the message of grace alone is counterintuitive, it is the most sublime message of the world, and one, as we’ve already seen, that we will admire for all eternity. Yet it must be that we need to hear this. By my count, Paul emphasizes that we are saved by grace alone seven different ways.

1. Praise the Lord for His Godhood (vs. 14-15). 2. Praise the Lord for His glory (vs. 14-15, 18). 3. Praise the Lord for His grace (vs. 14, 16-17).

Referring to the whole of vv 3-5, Paul says that God has elected us, sanctified us, predestined us, and adopted us to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved.

Great prayers are nourished by great praise, and God is worthy of our praise! 1. Praise God for His kingdom. 2. Praise God for His power. 3. Praise God for His glory.

The central truth of today’s message is that Christ alone can remedy our helpless state of being dead in sins. If you are already a believer, he wants you to know all that Jesus Christ is for you and continue resting in his salvation by faith. I want you to see four key aspects of God’s saving work in Christ to help you see why you should trust in Christ for salvation.

We know that God is great... 1. Because He has chosen His children (vs. 6-13). 2. Because His will is never wrong (vs. 14-22). 3. Because His mercy is magnificent (vs. 15-18). 4. Because His glory is great (vs. 23-24).

How should we see Jesus Christ? 1. See Him shining in the light of His glory (vs. 1-2). 2. See Him as Lord over all the Old Testament (vs. 3). 3. See Him living the only perfect life (vs. 4-5). 4. See Him having amazing love for us (vs. 4-9).

1. Talk about God's glory (vs. 17-18). 2. Talk about God's guidance (vs. 18-21). 3. Talk about your guilt of our sin (vs. 19; 22-24). 4. Talk about God's amazing grace (vs. 19-21).
