Christian Sermons from Calvary Chapel Greenmeadow, North Kingstown, RI

Error comes from not knowing the Word and it is only after we meditate upon it that we can grasp it. Remember AEIOU: ASK questions, EMPHASIZE words, put it IN your own words, check OTHER related scriptures, and USE it!

Pride leads to holding a grudge, which destroys relationships. In Obadiah, we see a grudge continuing between two nations that started 1,100 to 1,400 years earlier. In the end, it is the one holding the grudge who is the most hurt.

Our pride will bring us down and our arrogance will deceive us. These are the sins that keep us from bowing a knee to the Savior. Edom thought it was invincible but God brought it down. What can we expect Him to do to our nation and individually today?

The Providence Chapter of Teen Challenge shares their incredible testimonies and encouraging music. We are blessed as a church to have them visit us so often!

Not only does the Bible claim to be the Word of God, but also the reliability of its claims can be assured in several ways, including fulfilled prophecy, archeological evidence, internal consistencies, extra-Biblical writings, and others. So read it!

As believers we have hope, which should be evident to all. We must develop the reasons we hope, both for our own faith, and as an apologetic tool when others ask. Be the type of Christian that will make others want believe, then explain why they should.

St. Nicholas was a believer in Jesus and was even imprisoned for his beliefs. He, like John the Baptist, knew that Jesus was the creator, not a created being. On Christmas, we celebrate His birth, but when we become Christians, He celebrates our rebirth!

Just as we cannot save anyone from his or her sin, neither could John the Baptist, but we can point to the one who can. We must prepare our hearts for His coming. Not just once, and not just at Christmas, but daily.

We forgive others because we are commanded to do so, because it allows God's forgiveness to work in us, and because it restores our relationship with God. In order to forgive others, we must ask for God's strength.

Phrases that people find difficult to say include, "I'm sorry," "Let's Pray," and "Thank you." Our thanks need to be directed to someone specific: the one true God. Sometimes a written prayer or song helps us express our thanks to Him.
