Christian Sermons from Calvary Chapel Greenmeadow, North Kingstown, RI

The answers to life's big questions are not found in human wisdom. They must be soundly and securely based on Jesus. The enemy would like to keep us ignorant and unaware of the fullness we have been given in Christ.

Although we may suffer for Christ, we must continue to live and walk with him by faith in simple trust. In order to do this, we must be strongly rooted in Him.

God's Word reveals to us that we are helpless and lost without Him, but we are not hopeless. Although we have no cause for boasting in our righteous, believers can celebrate the righteousness that Christ imputed in us.

Relationships require work but there are five benefits to maintaining meaningful friendships: trust, accountability, respect, ethical standards, and a willingness to do good. Jesus is a relational being and will help us relate to others.

The book of Revelation can be viewed as a blueprint for the things that will take place. It begins with a blessing for those who read it, warns of judgments to come, and concludes with the promise of Jesus' soon return. So the time to trust in Jesus is today.

Believers must suffer as Paul did if they seek to live for Christ. Paul rejoiced in his suffering because he knew that the basis of his hope was Christ's work applied within us. Christ in us gives us the constant expectation of glory.

This week we are reminded of some of the characteristics of Jesus: The Son of God, God incarnate, the one by whom and for whom all things were created, Yahweh, the one who is. Is He your Lord and Savior?

We have been rescued from the dominion of darkness and into the everlasting loving kingdom of light. If you have been saved by the blood of Jesus, you know the depths of darkness from which you were lifted.

Paul's prayer for fellow believers was that they know God's will and bear good fruit. We are reminded to pray for others and ourselves in the same way and to learn God's will for our lives through reading His word, fellowship, and prayer.

The Apostle Paul takes the time to write an important letter to an unimportant place because of his love for the saints and to correct doctrinal errors that had crept into the church there.
