Living in the Kingdom VI

Wednesday 12/02/15   Series: Living in the Kingdom VI   Message – The Economy of the Kingdom VII Click here for the Video Our teaching today is a continuation of Sunday’s message about the Economy of  the Kingdom in regards to giving to the poor. Today we are focusing on the New Testament, NOT because it says anything different than the old, but because we are simply moving from the beginning of our bibles to the end. One example of giving which is unique to the New Testament and Jesus’ ministry in particular, is found in Matthew 17:24-27 and beautifully illustrates the very […]

Living in the Kingdom V

Sunday 11/29/15 Series: Living in the Kingdom V Message – The Economy of the Kingdom V Click here for the Video We began learning about giving alms, as an expression of our stewardship in the Economy of the Kingdom today following a review of some things I taught on Wednesday in 1 Tim. 6 & Luke 12. Contrary to what is often taught today, the bible is VERY consistent in it’s teachings concerning giving throughout both Testaments.

The HUGE mistake the Grace movement makes is to lump all giving under one big, all encompassing mass which couldn’t be […]

Want a 100% guarantee that your actions will bless the heart of God in the New Year? Actions do not make us accepted or loved before God, but they do impact the pleasure He has in us. Heb 11:6, “Now without faith it is impossible to please God, for the one who draws near to Him must […]

Living in the Kingdom II

Sunday 11/04/15   Series: Living in the Kingdom II   Message – The Economy of the Kingdom II Click here for the Video Our teaching today is a continuation of Sunday’s message about the Economy of Heaven. What we mean by this title is the stewardship those in the Kingdom of God have over the natural resources God has committed into our care. We are doing this on the heels of our teachings concerning the King and the Kingdom purposefully. It is SO vitally important to place ALL doctrine within its stated scriptural context. One cannot truly understand their stewardship before God without […]
