Have you ever looked at someone… maybe how they’re dressed… and right away made some conclusions about them? And later on down the road you discovered you had it all wrong! We tend to do things like that, more than we may care to admit. But today we’ll discover it’s not a wise thing to do. Pastor Ed has framed his message around Second Corinthians chapter ten.

Today on Abounding Grace be encouraged to give Jesus your ear, and watch what will happen as a result. Pastor Ed Taylor will be covering Second Corinthians eleven. And if you’ll recall, false prophets had entered into the church at Corinth. And they were being lead astray. Very sadly the same thing is happening in today’s church, so we need to be on our guard.

Anger… it’s one of the most frequently committed sins in the body of Christ. But what’s often left behind are hurt feelings, and damaged relationships! Today on Abounding Grace we’ll see how to deal with anger, so we can break free from our past. Pastor Ed Taylor will use Moses as an example that we can learn from. Yes, even Moses had an anger problem. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29?v=20251111

Someone has wisely observed that anger is just one letter removed from danger, and that should remind us that when we’re angry, we’re treading on dangerous ground! Pastor Ed points out in today’s study how anger very often is holding us back from freedom from our past.

We’re developing a series called, “Free from our Past,” here on Abounding Grace with pastor Ed Taylor. We learned last time that a key to a fruitful life is abiding in Jesus. Apart from the Lord we can do nothing. And so we should learn to live moment by moment in dependence upon God. Today we’ll make the connection between this abiding life and breaking free from our past. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29?v=20251111

Maybe you grew up in a church that boiled the Christian life down to a list of do’s and don’ts. And after you went out there and gave it your best shot, you were left frustrated and discouraged, as you simply didn’t measure up! Today on Abounding Grace we’ll discover that Jesus has set us free from that sort of burden. Instead He calls us to a life of faith and belief.

Pastor Ed Taylor will be along shortly and continue our study in Second Corinthians. We left off in chapter eleven, at verse three. The apostle Paul is expressing his deep concern for the church in Corinth. They were dealing with deceivers, liars, and phonies. Savage wolves had come into the church and they were ripping them off, so Paul is going to tell it like it is.

As we turn back to Romans chapter eight, we encounter a glorious truth. There is incredible freedom to be found in Jesus and the gospel of grace. We’re released from the burden of trying to live up to a standard, we could never reach on our own. Instead, God has done all the heavy lifting for us. And when we realize it’s all done by Jesus, we can simply embrace it by faith and be thankful! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29?v=20251111
