Teaching

Are you walking dead?

The Spirit is alive. Adam and Eve were the first to sin. Cain followed in sin when he slew Able. We have to learn to do our best for God the first time. "Dead" is listed 386 times where alive is listed 81 times in the Bible. A lot of people are walking dead, we should be walking in Christ Jesus to be alive. We are in the world, but we are Not of the world. Sin will bring you death. But if you have Jesus in you, you are Alive. We owe the flesh nothing. But we owe Christ Jesus everything.

Romans 8:1-16

​ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

condemnation - 1. the expression of very strong disapproval; censure.
"there was strong international condemnation of the attack"
synonyms: censure, criticism, strictures, denunciation, vilification;

Carnal minded - 1.pertaining to or characterized by the flesh or the-body, its passions and appetites; sensual:

Long suffering - 1.enduring injury, trouble, or provocation long and patiently.

Mortify - cause (someone) to feel embarrassed, ashamed, or humiliated.
"she was mortified to see her wrinkles in the mirror"

"I'd be mortified if my friends found out"

Today we continue our sermon series on vocation and will be looking for God’s passion for human flourishing and kingdom growth in a Human Resources director.

“I love it when someone who wants to succeed, but is
missing that one little push or the skill set,”[gets that push or skill set and] flourishes… It’s about people becoming much more than what you see on the surface when first meeting them… it’s about them going way beyond your initial perceptions… it’s very rewarding to see that.”
Jae Cowie, Vice President, Corporate Services, Ferus

“As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. “Come, follow me,”
Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.”
At once they left their nets and followed him.”
Matthew 4:18-20, NIV

“Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.”
Jesus in John 14:12, NIV

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord,
“plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Jeremiah 29:11, NIV

Matthew 1:18-23

We continue our ongoing walk through the Book of Romans. This week we finished chapter 11, covering the verses 22-36. We looked at the Apostle Paul's explanation of God's plan for the eventual salvation of all the Jewish nation. Every circumstance being God's plan, Paul here makes case for the assurance of salvation and eternal security. (Session 35)

"Get a life" is God's basic message to every human being who is born. Huh? Doesn't their birth give them life? Only temporarily, and usually with eventually diminishing quality. See why the Bible can be summed up in 4.8 seconds as: "the story of two men--the first guy wrecked everything, the second guy is fixing it."

In this message we’re going to explore the theology of sleep. How does a sleeping human being uniquely image God? Can a good night’s sleep help you know God more?

“You and I we go to sleep every single night, but our brains they never rest…”
Neuroscientist Jeff Iliff, TED talk

“He who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel 
will neither slumber nor sleep.”
Psalm 121, NIV

The vineyards of Napa Valley are world famous for their many varieties of wine. The climate there is ideal, providing just the right stress on the grape to produce the peak flavors necessary. Sometimes God develops our spiritual and religious life in similar ways, putting us through stress to produce the most flavorful result. Watch as Pastor MacLaren speaks on the birth announcement given by the angel Gabriel to an elderly couple serving in the priesthood of Jerusalem. This sermon was given at First Presbyterian Church in Perkasie, PA (USA) on December 7, 2014. First Church is a member of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. The Rev. R. Scott MacLaren is the pastor.

The legend of the "jolly old man" we all know as Santa Claus takes on new meaning as we learn the true story of St. Nicholas of Myra and his generous nature.

Romans 4:18-5:5

18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be. 19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb: 20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; 21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. 22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness. 23 Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; 24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; 25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
