Holy Spirit as Dove

Bible Audio Blog
      19840304pm Holy Spirit As Dove - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Who is the #HolySpirit?  Probably the least discussed and possibly the least understood part of the #Triune #God.  Today, we start a series of messages looking at references to the Holy Spirit and what we can learn from them.  What is the first mention of the Holy Spirit in the Bible?  Was it in the New Testament or the Old Testament?  When did the Spirit of God appear as a dove?  Was it more than once?  Why would God’s Spirit choose to appear as a dove?  What are the parallels?

Bread of Heaven

      19840715 Bread of Heaven - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Have you ever been to a #restaurant that served #bread before the meal, and it was so good you just had to eat there again #cheddarbiscuits?  Is there a better bread, one that gives eternal life?  Now I am not saying communion saves your soul.  But, rather the sacrifice represented by this sacrament makes it possible to be forgiven.  What do the elements represent?  What should communion mean to us?  What is our part in this ceremony and what is God’s part?

Pray One for Another

Bible Audio Blog
      19831120pm Pray One For Another - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

What effect does #prayer have on the people around us?  I see so many people scoff at others that say, “I will pray for you.’  But the Bible says that the prayers of the righteous accomplish much.  Did Jesus, the Son of God, pray and did He tell us to do the same?  Did Jesus also show us how?  For whom did Christ show us that we should pray?  How should we pray for them?  What did Paul, the missionary, teach us about prayer?

Be Kind One to Another

      19831113pm Be Kind To One Another - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Whoops, this one got stuck in the cloud.  Shoutout to the #Kid on this message.  Who could be against #kindness?  Most people like to think that they are kind.  Are there different types of kindness?  Are there limits to our natural kind tendencies?  What level of kindness are Christians supposed to show others?  On what should it be based?  What role does the Holy Spirit play?  What does it have to do with patience, compassion, service, and the undeserving?  What does kindness not involve? Have you ever heard of the three pronged test about what you should say?  Is there such a thing as counterfeit kindness?  What is the goal of Christian kindness?

Are You a Christian Mother?

Bible Audio Blog
      19820509 Are You A Christian Mother? - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

We are going to take a break this week from the One Another series (just one left) to recognize that Sunday is #Mother’sDay.  You’re welcome for the reminder.  Do you agree with the statement, ‘as the home goes, so goes Society”?  Who is at the center of the home?  What are some of the ways modern culture tries to cut away at the Biblical role of mothers?  What can men do to support the women in their life to be a Christian mother?  What does a Christian mother have to do with leading in worship, teaching the Word, and being an example of Grace?  How does the challenge of motherhood make it easier to undermine that role?  Who should support mothers?  What contribution can be made by mothers to the Kingdom of God?

Show Hospitality One to Another

Bible Audio Blog
      19831113am Show Hospitality To One Another - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

#Christians should be the most hospitable people we ever encounter.  What does Biblical hospitality look like?  What could be more inviting than meeting in someone’s home?  When did that change and what did it do to Christianity?  Who should be hospitable and to whom are they to show it?  What makes us suspicious of strangers?  What does the Bible say we have in common with them?  Are there any perils to be aware of when showing hospitality?  What is the reward for being kind to strangers?

Bear One Another’s Burdens

Bible Audio Blog
      19831106pm Bear One Another's Burdens - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

This week’s message goes a step further than last week’s lesson on #bear with one another.  Bother Tommy says this is the most delicate of the ‘one another’ commands.  This one deals with how a #Christian should handle another Christian who slips into sin.  Should we judge or condemn the other who failed?  What should we ensure before attempting to assist?  Does the Bible say we should try this alone?  What does it mean to restore a fellow Christian?  What could go wrong during this process?

Bear with One Another

Bible Audio Blog
      19831106am Bear With One Another - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

If you are like me you enjoy interacting with #people, but on an individual basis it sometimes is more difficult.  This message is the first of two #bear messages, delivered incidentally by a man whose nickname was Bear.  Remember these ‘one another’ lessons were directed at Christ followers to tell us how to deal with other Christians.  What does it mean to bear with others?  Do we overlook every flaw or wrong action?  How should we approach others?  What exactly is meekness?  What does patience have to do with this concept of bearing with one another?  Where is a good place to practice this skill?  Is love a feeling or an action?  Who is our example of forgiveness?  Is bearing with one another natural or do we have to work at it?
