No Peace Without Christ

Isn't it wonderful to have a real relationship with Yahweh while there is absolutely no condemnation from Him? That's what all true believers have and it will never be taken away. Why? They are all in Jesus Christ who has satisfied the Law for them and they have the Holy Spirit whom Jesus sent indwelling them! Anyone who is outside of Christ does not have peace with the Lord and he is an enemy of God. He will always oppose God and His Word. This devotional video will show you the comparison between believers and non-believers.

Are There (Carnal) Worldly Christians?

There are only two basic groups of mankind. One consists of "believers" and the other are "non-believers". There is no such group as "worldly Christians" who do not grow spiritually. Those among us who claim themselves as "Christians", however; really belong to the group that is "non-believers". You will understand why as we compare them. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us. But they went out, that it might become plain that they all are not of us. 1 John 2:19.

All Begins With God

Why is it that the law of God which is good CANNOT save us? After we understand why, we will know God MUST be the one to save us! It ALL begins with Him! Not us. May we praise Him for His amazing grace to deliver us from the power of sin and the condemnation of the law.

NO CONDEMNATION

The Bible says plainly in Romans 8:1, "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Isn't it wonderful that we are no longer on a 'death row' and we will NOT die being condemned by God at all?!  Sadly, so many times we hear people of many religions talk like we are still on 'death row', and God will condemn us to eternal death because, they say, we do certain things we should not do. Those who are in Christ ARE NOT condemned and WILL NOT BE condemned- and that is the theme throughout Romans chapter 8. Let us begin to study!

Excellent!

This sermon was given at Pinedale Christian Church in Winston-Salem, NC, on April 19, 2015. It is about your jobs, abilities, or assignments. Do you do excellent jobs for the Lord?

There Is Deliverance!

This devotional video is the last for our study of Romans chapter 7. (We will start studying chapter 8 after this!) How distressing the chapter mostly was to us, but it is good for us to know how sinful we could be! That's because if we think less of our sin; we also think less of our great Savior Jesus and then we praise the Father MUCH less for His work of salvation! Charles Spurgeon said, "When men talk of a little hell, it's because they think they have only a little sin and believe in a little Savior." How true! Watch this and encourage one another as we persevere in faith.

An Ongoing Struggle

All believers have what I call a "civil war" that goes on and on because of our sinful nature. Although we feel terrible for sinning against God at times, Paul has something to say that is of comfort to us. Today's devotional video explains!

The Fight Of Our Lives

Do you fight against your sinful nature even though you try to obey God's law? Do you sometimes sin although you hate your sins? Are you in Christ? If you are a believer, then you are righteous! Maybe you are thinking, "Huh?, how do all those fit together?"  Watch this video and you'll see!

That It Might Appear Sin

You will notice in the beginning of this video a picture of a tent and the notion that sin is in there. (ref. Joshua 7-9, Achan's sin and the unfaithfulness of Israel) Our sin is in the hiding and God's law must drag it out, so sinfulness can be exposed. If it were not for that, sinners would not flee from sin to Christ for His righteousness! Thanks to God for giving us the law which is His tool to convict us and bring us to Christ!

The Value Of The Law

Some believers have pride because they are regarded by others as "strong Christians" or "good Christians," and, for fear of being discovered that they have a struggle inside themselves with their sins- they do not want them revealed "publicly". Other Christians feel so ashamed that they individually think he (or she) is the only one who is battling with the sin nature. In his writing in Romans chapter 7, the Apostle Paul is blunt about his personal struggle! We are the same as Paul- we ALL struggle with sin!

Prison Break-in

This sermon, "Prison Break-in", was given at Pinedale Christian Church in Winston-Salem, NC, on April 12, 2015. Please share this with your friends as we should encourage all Christians to put in more effort to reach lost people with the Gospel.

The Big Difference!

There is a BIG difference between living in the flesh and living in the Spirit. How does it ever come about when a person puts faith in Christ? It is the gracious work of the Holy Spirit that we have been crucified with Christ and we are no longer in the flesh! We can now produce the fruit of holiness that God desires!

Dead To The Law

We who have trusted Jesus as the Savior are spiritually married to Him. One of the reasons is that we are DEAD to the law. Amen? Enjoy watching this and share!

God’s Law Requires Perfection

We are now studying Romans chapter 7 about the role of God's law. I am really looking forward to study it myself. I suggest you read the whole chapter today and ask the Lord to help you to understand it in the next few days.

That One Man

The other video that was posted on April 3, 2015 was not voiced. This is the voiced version. This is the last devotional for our study of Romans 5. What the Gospel has is Jesus at its center. It is Jesus that we all definitely need.

We Reign Through Faith

The other video was not voiced. This is the voiced version. Sometimes it is tempting to us to think that death or sin or even the devil reigns over genuine Christians. Jesus reigns! And what's more?! We reign through Him!

The Line In The Sand Is Drawn

It does not matter how far you are in education. It does not matter which church or which denomination you are in. It does not matter how deep you are in the Scripture. It does not matter what kind of home you are in. It does not matter what kind of group you are in. What does matter before God is whether YOU ARE IN JESUS CHRIST or IN SIN. Your eternal destiny depends on that. Romans 6:23 says it all!
