Those who go rogue to remain allegiant to God’s even-if-sovereignty will see clearly, act with fidelity and walk humbly. Without even realizing what they are doing and quite apart from trying to start a rebellion, on allegiance alone, they push against conformity and cross-pressures and do not become fragilized in the face of different options, where people who lead “normal” lives do not share their faith (and perhaps believe something very different).

We are so used to having our flag in our churches we don’t even think about what it means. We say our pledge to the American flag in our churches because we believe that we are “one nation under God.” That has changed over the years. It seems that America is trying to deny its Christian heritage. Can we still confess that we are “one nation under God,” or should we take the American flag out of our churches? Where is our allegiance? The word “confess” means praise, acknowledge, agree, say the same thing, promise, or admit. When we study confession, we will realize that our allegiance needs to be to Jesus Christ. We need to give Him our full attention. Let’s look at some verses that will help us realize these facts.

Reading: I will be speaking on the subject of modesty. This is an important topic that affects EVERY person here in some way. There are so many ways to approach this subject, and I have been praying that the way I approach this subject will be given in a way that shows my love and my concern for everyone…

Introduction: The lady said she came to win the $2 million prize. She had been offered $180k by the guy in the booth, but she was still thinking about the $2 million. “Just pick one more,” her family and friends said. “No deal,” screamed the audience. A. It was a classic “approach-approach conflict.”…

INTRO. Change is inevitable! Change can be our friend or our enemy depending on how we embrace it. We can not go through life without being affected by change. As Christians we should welcome change when it is for our good and helps us grow in our walk with Christ. This text seems to be emphasizing that…

열 므나의 비유와 달란트 비유, 어떻게 살아야 할까

Once you have been taught something or done something all of your life, it is difficult to change. There is a fun video on the web about some men in a shop who created a bicycle where the handlebars turn the opposite direction of the wheel (turn the handle bars right and the wheel goes left). The fellow…

INTRODUCTION: I still remember the day that I became an adult, or at least the day that I first felt like an adult. It was May 7, 2003. The reason that day is connected to adulthood for me is because it was the day that I first took ownership of something. In particular it was the day that I bought my…

제목 : 착각에서 벗어나 충성으로 본문 : 디모데전서 1:12-17 [도입] 오늘날 우리가 목자를 맡는 것에 있어 부담이 없다면 그것은 거짓말 일 것입니다. 내게 맡겨진 목원들을 케어해야만 하며, 또 그들을 향해 때로는 쓴소리도, 때로는 격려와 위로도 해주어야 하는 일종의 감정소모가 있는 일이기 때문입니다. 물론 목자가 가지는 역할에 대한 부분에서 오는 부담감도 있지만, 단순히 그 부담감 때문에 우리는 목자를 꺼리는 것일까? 목자를 감당하기 위해선 목원들 케어를 위해 날마다 말씀을 묵상해야 하고, 날마다 기도할 수 있어야 하며, 또…

We are all looking for resources to keep our lives moving along smoothly. That seems to the whole goal for many of us. When things get rough we rely on our resources. Would your allegiance to Jesus survive a severe test? Would you suffer for your faith? Are you tapped into God’s Glory and His Story or will you “tap out” when the trials come? Pastor Aaron preaches from Acts 4:13-31.

INTRODUCTION On Monday we celebrated Charlotte and Norah’s 3rd birthday. In the morning, I went to get balloons from the dollar store. There was a cat balloon that Charlotte had seen the week before that she really wanted, so I got that one for her. Since they only had one in stock, I got a sloth for…

15 As the people were filled with expectation, and all were questioning in their hearts concerning John, whether he might be the Messiah, 16 John answered all of them by saying, “I baptize you with water; but one who is more powerful than I is coming; I am not worthy to untie the thong of his sandals.…

20210403토 , 매일성경 새벽기도설교 십자가에서 우리 주님께서 돌아가신 후에 있었던 일들을 차례대로 기록한 오늘 본문은 복음 전파의 미래를 보여 주는 말씀입니다. 로마군의 백부장의 고백, 숨어있던 아리마대 요셉의 용기, 주님의 장례를 준비한 여인들의 모습을 통하여, 여전히 하나님의 사람들이 남아 있음을 보게 됩니다. 찬송 : 새찬송가 143장, 웬말인가 날 위하여 성경 : 누가복음 23장 44절-56절 설교 : 내가 할 일을 하였다 "내일 지구가 멸망하더라도 오늘 하루의 사과나무를 심겠다"라는 유명한 말이 있습니다. 흔히 우리는…

20210412월 찬송 : 새찬송가 323장, 부름 받아 나선 이 몸 성경 : 출애굽기 4장 1절-17절 설교 : 주여 나를 보내소서 운동회에서 빠지지 않고 하던 경기들이 있습니다. 운동회의 하일라이트라고도 할 수 있는 가장 중요한 경기는, '이어달리기'와 '줄다리기'입니다. 이어달리기는 청군과 백군에서 달리기를 잘하는 사람들이 나와서 바통을 이어 받으며 달리는 경기입니다. 그리고 줄다리기는, 왠만하면 청군과 백군의 모든 팀원들이 나와서 각자 줄을 잡고 자신의 팀 쪽으로 줄을 당기는 경기입니다. 밀고 당기는 가운데 결국 한쪽의 힘이…
