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?

Liberty In Law – Law of Legacy – Protection of Property

Bible Audio Blog
      20050424 Liberty In Law - Law Of Legacy - Protection Of Property - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Is #Jesus a #socialist?  What does #God think about the #right to private property?  But wait, does the commandment against stealing only pertain to material things?  What are the only three ways to receive goods and services?  Are we allowed to not only possess property but to protect it?  The Bible has much to say about what how we should use those possessions, but it definitely follows that we have to own and protect property in order to use it to glorify God and to help others.  Can we steal from God?  Is it possible to steal from ourself?  If you think the Old Testament penalties for stealing were harsh, just remember that not measuring up to any part of God’s law means falling short of the Glory of God.  And if you don’t accept the sacrifice of Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you will still be guilty.  Let Brother Tommy remind you of all the areas you may have forgotten about like taxes, wages, gambling, and tithing.  Maybe you are sensing a theme through these messages on the Ten Commandments.  If it seems like it is impossible to keep any of these rules, you are correct.  But God sacrificed His Son to pay the penalty for us and give us the power to live abundantly.

A Religion of Remnants

Bible Audio Blog
      20001112 A Religion Of Remnants - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

This week, we are going to look at our #worship.  Who do we worship? Is it worthy worship?  Do we worship #creation rather than the #creator?  The Bible says that where we spend our time and money that is where our heart lies.  When we do recognize God with our time and money, are we giving our best or the remnants?  What is the biblical principle of first fruits?  

We are taking a 6 week break from our Christ is the Answer series until the new year.

The Joy of Jesus – Triumphant Serving – As Expressed – By Readiness To Give

      20050918 Triumphant Serving - As Experienced - By Readiness To Give - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Now before you say that preachers are always asking for #money, remember this site is not asking for anything.  But, #God wants more than your money.  To follow Jesus properly is to give your life to God.  That means everything including time, skills, and more.  Does that mean you have to quit your job and go work at your church?  Most of the time, no.  God wants us out there serving throughout the community.  Is there anything God has asked of you that you did not want to give?  Can He get it done without you?  Who pays a price when that happens?  You’re not hurting God.  What can we learn from Paul’s writings about Epaphroditus about giving, suffering, and healing?

The Joy of Jesus – Available For Calculation – Matter of Profit and Loss – When Profit Becomes Loss

      20051009 Joy Of Jesus - Available For Calculation - Matter Of Profit & Loss - When Profit Becomes Loss - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

There is a lot of #profit that has become #loss lately with all of the #quarantine and #marketcrash going on right now due to #covid19.  Paul, in Philippians, encouraged us not to have confidence in the flesh.  Could that be a lesson God is teaching all of us right now?  Paul listed off all the things he counted on before coming to faith in Jesus Christ.  Why were they not enough?  Was it not sufficient to his salvation that he was born into the right family or that he was extremely religious?  What are you counting on instead of, or in addition to Jesus Christ to save your soul?  Is it money, status, reputation, or something else?

Heaven’s Welcoming Committee

Bible Audio Blog

What #tools did Jesus tell us to use to make #Heaven a better place?  How can Believers use their #money, #time, and #talents to create a welcoming committee for themselves in Heaven?  There’s a parable in Luke that Jesus tells and it sounds counter intuitive.  It is about a master and a shrewd steward.  Who and what is represented in this story?  What are we to make of His admonition to be like the steward?  How do the children of this world outperform the children of light?  Will you have friends waiting for your arrival in Heaven?

Receive One Another

What brings people #together despite different #backgrounds, #politics, #races, or anything else?  It is the fellowship of Believers.  Does this mean excluding non-believers?  How are we to receive each other?  Is it based on who they are or what they can do?  We may not exclude the poor but, do we get just as excited to see them?  How about someone of another race?  How do we receive one another based on Grace?

Survey of Stewardship

Bible Audio Blog

      19750105 Survey Of Stewardship - Rev. Tommy Jones

 

Would it shock you to find out that it was never #God’s plan for #Government to provide all of our needs?  How would you feel if you found out that the Bible states that God provides for us and even provides us with extra in order that we may bless others and that we will be judged accordingly?  What is the purpose of stewardship?  What does Genesis tell us about why we are here?  What is the plan of stewardship?  Do you hold your bank accountable for your deposits?  Of course you do.  Do you get upset when your $10 deposit doesn’t earn a million dollars in interest?  Of course not.  How much more so will a perfect God expect us to be responsible with what He has given to us?  Is God just concerned about what we do with our money?  What about our time, our talents, and our lives?  What is the relationship between giving and living?
