Eph 4: The Truthful Church (pt3 of 3)

July 21, 2013 By ray

How do we reach Christianity maturity? 3 points. 1) Leaders train. 2) Members minister. 3) Most importantly, all of us have been given the task of speaking the truth in love to one another. First, leaders train. Pastors, evangelists, teachers – typically, people with these gifts form the leadership of the church. And what do […]

Eph 4: The Truthful Church (pt2 of 3)

July 21, 2013 By ray

To diligently keep the unity, the people of God have to live lives worthy of our salvation. In other words, they have to be true Christians who are humble and gentle and patient and accepting of one another in love. How is unity broken?

Vision for the Church: Gospel and Spiritual Fruit (pt4 of 4)

July 11, 2012 By ray

When the gospel is preached and there is a true conversion, then your life changes (Fruit of the Spirit). Now we are ready to talk about the fruit of the Spirit. Gal 5:22 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Paul – why […]
