A Renewed Mind

A RENEWED MIND

(Rom 12:2; 1 Cor. 2:16)

 

Having the mind of Christ means… 

 

1.  I am keenly aware of God’s presence in my life
2. I see me for who I really am
3. I realize there is plan and purpose for my life
4. I have been called to live my life for HIS glory - I live to please God alone.
5. I rely on God’s power rather than my own ability
6. I submit to HIS will not mine
7. I understand what it means to be a servant (to serve)
8. I understand what it mean to be a dispenser of grace 
9. I learn the power of my words (control my tongue) 
10. I live my life today with eternity in mind.

Real Freedom

Pastor Sid's sermon from 7/5/20.

Gratitude

Gratitude 

1 Thess. 5:16-18

How can we be grateful with everything going on around us?

1. Our gratitude depends on who God is.
2. Our gratitude depends on what He has done (past).
3. Our gratitude depends on what He will do (future).

Why should I be grateful?

1. It takes my focus off my situation.
2. It does more for me than it does for God.
3. It makes me a happier person.

Cultivate a habit of gratitude.

1. Make it part of your devotional life.
2. Share with others (in terms of witness).
3. Express gratitude to others.
4. Serve God and others.

The Resurrection Means Everything

The RESURRECTION means EVERYTHING

(Romans 8:31-39)

 

Because Jesus rose from the dead:

 

1. NOTHING CAN COME AGAINST US - God is for us (8:31)

 

2. OUR DEBT IS PAID - my sins are forgiven (8:33)

 

3. THERE IS NO MORE CONDEMNATION - Guilt & Shame have no power over me (8:34)

 

4. WE ARE RECIPIENTS OF HIS UNCONDITIONAL LOVE - Nothing can separate us form his love (8:35)

 

5. WE LIVE VICTORIOUS LIVES - We are more than conquerors (8:37)

 

6. WE HAVE HOPE FOR THE FUTURE - Eternity with Him (8:23-25)

The Everyday Church in Acts

Pastor Sid's sermon about what the church should look like based on Acts 2:42-47.  

What does it mean to be a real Christian?

God Seeks the Lost

Luke 19:1-10

4 Truths:

1. No matter how small I feel, Jesus notices me.
2. People may push me away, but Jesus still accepts me.
3. God can still use me.
4. God always loves me.
