Christ Is The Answer – The Consequences of The Resurrection

Bible Audio Blog
      20010325 Christ Is The Answer - The Consequences Of The Resurrection - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Is there a pivotal moment in #Jesus Christ’s life that is make or break for #Christians?  Is it His birth that fulfilled all the #prophecies of the Old Testament?  Was it the first miracle of His ministry when Jesus turned water into wine?  Could it have been His many healings or when He fed the 5000?  How about when He died on the cross for our sins?  All of these might have disappeared into history had Christ not risen from the dead.  It is the key to a living faith.  Without the resurrection, what kind of faith would we have?  How could we have joy or hope?  What is the significance of the first fruits?  What does the resurrection mean for Believers?

Christ Is The Answer – Resources In Worship

      20010121 Christ Is The Answer - Resources In Worship - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

If trusting in #Jesus #Christ as your #Lord and #Savior only bestowed #eternal life on the #Believer that would be more than enough to make it worth our decision.  But God did not stop there.  He has bestowed every one of the Faithful with one nor more spiritual gifts.  Are spiritual gifts the same as spiritual fruit?  What are these gifts and can anybody have more than one?  Only the Holy Spirit enables a person to say that Jesus is Lord.  What will the true Christian never say?  What role do each of the three figures of the Godhead play in the function of these gifts?  For what purpose are we given these gifts?  Later Paul will give a full list of the spiritual gifts, but here he lists the ones the Corinthians were struggling to handle.  Why are some gifts less evident today?  The gifts Paul covers in this passage are wisdom, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment, and the speaking and interpretation of tongues.

Mosaics Of The Master – Christ The Surety of Life – Demonstrated By A Sign – Lazarus Raised

      20061105 Mosaics Of The Master - Christ The Surety Of Life - Demonstrated By A Sign - Lazarus Raised - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Is there anything after #death?  We all have wondered at one time or another what happens at the end of #life.  Maybe it was at the funeral of a loved one or at a graveside.  That is exactly where Jesus gave us the answer to that age old question.  If Christ knew what He was about to do, why would He weep for His friend?  What doubts did Martha have before Jesus raised her dead brother, Lazarus?  Did she overcome her doubt with faith?  What was the significance of the timing and way that Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead?  What can we learn from the prayer Jesus prayed?  Just imagine the rejoicing of the faithful after this miracle.  Can you believe that some people saw this fantastic event and went straight to the enemies of Jesus?  What will you do with this knowledge?

Mosaics Of The Master – Christ The Secret of Life – Demonstrated By A Sign

I’ve got a #secret.  It is the secret to #life and #death.  But unlike other secrets and #conspiracies, it is a 2000 year old secret that does not depend on your membership in a #club or #class to be in the know.  Instead, it depends on you opening your eyes and ears.  Why would a well to do man travel long distances when he had a sick child at home?  How did he approach Jesus?  What is the purpose of suffering?  What lasts longer you or your troubles?  Many people ask God for a sign, but what did Jesus say to this man seeking a miracle?  ‘Believing is seeing’ will get you into trouble when it comes to human activity, but it is required with God.  How can putting Faith into action lead to confirmation?

The Meaning of Christmas

      20071223 Analyzing The Annunciation - The Meaning Of Christmas - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

What is the meaning of #Christmas?  Is it #gifts, #family, #Santa, or even #diversity?  Well, there is no Christmas without #Jesus Christ’s birth.  So what does it mean for us that God sent His Son to us?  Brother Tommy say it means we are to submit to God’s love like Mary did.  How can we do that?  How did Mary then submit to God’s word?  What do her actions show us about love, faith, and hope?

      20011209 Study In A Stable - Joseph - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Let’s kick off a series of December messages by Brother Tommy from 2001.  Even back then, he was lamenting the #waronChristmas.  This week, he talks about Joseph.  And in the following weeks, we will cover Mary and Jesus.  Can you think of one Christmas song about Joseph?  What role did Joseph play in the birth and life of Jesus?  What was his background and lineage?  What can we assume abut his faith from this test he went through?  What can we learn about how to treat others by watching Joseph’s treatment of Mary?  What can we learn from his faith in God?

Biblical Basis for Missions – The Magnet of Missions

Bible Audio Blog

#Magnetism is a mysterious force, both in #physics and interpersonal #relationships.  #Commitment draws us to others and the same is true in #missions.  Brother Tommy gives us several examples both in and out of the Bible of men drawn to missions like a magnet, even to the point of imprisonment.  What does it tell us about Paul’s values when we read about his desires and admonitions that he expressed to Timothy?  What did he tell Timothy about the resources available to him and us to increase the strength of our magnet?  Catch the Spirit.  Fan the flame.  Strengthen yourself.  Do you see the Christian life as a picnic or a battle field?

Easter Journey Into Joy

Bible Audio Blog

I can’t even.  We have two more messages in the series we have been doing on the #devil.  But after the celebration I just attended for the #resurrection of my #Lord and #Savior #Jesus Christ, I had to share a message about Easter.  We serve a living God.  What do we know about Jesus and His activities after His death and resurrection?  Did Christ only appear to the 11 remaining disciples?  What can we relate to about these travelers Jesus appeared to on their journey to Emmaus?  Did they have faith?  How about hope?  Were they confronted with truth?  What did they mean when they said their hearts burned within them?  Did Jesus insist on going in their home or was he invited?  I encourage you to engage the Lord and Savior in conversation and invite Him into your life.
