Eternal City Church Sunday Sermons

This is Pt. 2 of forgiven to forgive and this message deals more with the practicalness and how to of forgiveness than the theology of forgiveness.

We as Christians have been forgiven an insurmountable sin debt by God the Father "In Christ". We who have been forgiven so much must, out of that forgiveness, forgive others their much smaller in comparison debts owed to us in the form of sins against us and offences.

Jesus taught his disciples to pray for daily bread. In praying to God for daily bread we must be praying about the meaningful work God gives us to do for his glory, creation care, reflecting his creativity or imaging him and for providing for ourselves our neighbors and the animal kindom.

Jesus taught his disciples to pray to "our Father" that his kingdom would be realized through Jesus' (God's appointed king) loving rule. Jesus also taught his disciples to pray for God's revealed will to be accomplished on earth as it is being accomplished in heaven.

In the sermon on the mount Jesus helps us in our prayer lives by giving us more a way of praying than a prayer to pray. In Matthew 6:9 Jesus gives us four different categories to meditate on and pray through. "Our", "father", "in heaven" & "hallowed be your name".

Genuine, authentic, real prayer is one of the most difficult aspects of the Christian's life even though it's the most essential. Perhaps that's the reason why it's so difficult. Why do we pray if God already knows what will ask for? Do we change God's mind when we pray? Will my prayers get answered if my faith is weak? What if I'm praying against God's will? This message seeks to answer these questions and more.

Jesus is the man of Proverbs 20:5 who can draw out our deepest self glorifying motives and change them in to God glorifying motives.
