  • Allen Jackson Ministries - #686: Rejection to Acceptance

    We can't eliminate rejection from our lives, but it doesn’t have the power to keep us from God's best. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses rejection, its causes, and God’s acceptance. Leaders like David, Moses, and our Lord Jesus all faced immense rejection in their lifetimes, and Pastor Allen speaks about how God helped each of them overcome. He also shares a few common causes of rejection: broken families, betrayal, and shame. While each of us will be touched by rejection in our lives, we don’t have to live in its bondage. We can find freedom through our acceptance into God’s Kingdom and His family.

  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - August 17th - 1 Timothy 6:17

    1 Timothy 6:17

    Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment.

    If you have a look at the world’s stock markets over the past century, you will know exactly what the apostle Paul meant! They have gone up and down. Money is completely unreliable. The downs have often been dramatic and have led to misery for millions of people. The 1920s were a time of huge economic expansion. They were known as the Roaring Twenties and saw the advance of many technological innovations in radio, automobile, aviation and telephone. However, the growth was unsustainable, and in the Great Crash of 1929, the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 40 per cent, leading to the deep economic depression of the 1930s which caused incredible misery right around the world.
    More recently, the crashes of 1987 and 2008 saw massive losses on the stock markets with huge implications for the world economy. Paul wasn’t telling Timothy that it was wrong to have money, but that it was ridiculous to place your trust in it. It simply isn’t reliable.
    Only God is completely trustworthy, so Paul’s advice to rich people was to use their money to do good. He didn’t tell them to get rid of it but encouraged them to be rich in good works and generous to those in need. In that way, they would show that their faith was in God and not in their wealth.
    If you have great wealth, you should give thanks to God but ensure you never allow it to win your trust and devotion. These are such wise words for our money-mad society, in which we are continually fed the lie that a win on the lottery would put smiles on our faces and solve all our problems. We need to keep our eyes fixed on God, who alone has the power to give us all that we need for our enjoyment. Whether we have lots of money or very little, we can find fulfilment and joy if our lives are focused on God.

    Question

    How has Paul’s teaching challenged your own thinking about money?

    Prayer

    Lord God, help me to rely upon you completely, and never to place my trust in money and possessions. Amen

  • The Christian Worldview - The Predictable Result of Educating Children Without God

    Send us a text

    This program previously aired 07/23/2022

    GUEST: ALEX NEWMAN, Journalist and Author, Crimes of the Educators

    It’s axiomatic—the one who teaches children is the one who shapes their worldview, and thus, society at large.

    The Bible assigns the teaching and training of children to parents. “Train up a child in the way he should go, even when he is old he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).

    But of course, God-rejecting man has a “better” idea—remove children from the (redefined) home to be indoctrinated by government “educators” for up to 40 hours each week from age four to 18. With a government that ignores the most important truth in life—God exists and has spoken in Scripture—how do you think that will turn out for the kids?

    Turns out, just as planned. John Dewey (1859-1952), considered the “Father of the Modern American Public Education System” said: “There is no God and there is no soul. Hence, there are no needs for the props of traditional religion. With dogma and creed excluded, immutable truth is also dead and buried.”

    In case you’re not convinced, Dr. Chester Pierce, Professor of Education and Psychology at Harvard University, said at the Childhood International Education Seminar in 1973:

    “Every child who enters school at age 5 is mentally ill because he enters school with an allegiance toward our elected officials, our founding fathers, our institutions, the preservation of this form of government we have, patriotism, nationalism, sovereignty… All this proves that the children are sick, because a truly well individual is one who has rejected all those things and is what I would call the international child of the future.”

    Mission accomplished. Taxpayer-funded, federal government-mandated public education has shaped generations of the “international child” with unsuspecting parents losing almost all influence. The moral confusion that reigns in our children and nation today shouldn’t be surprising.

    International journalist Alex Newman joins us for a second week on The Christian Worldview to discuss what government education has become and what Christian parents should do. Alex is the author Crimes of the Educators: How Utopians Are Using Government Schools to Destroy America’s Children, CEO of Liberty Sentinel Media and a senior editor for The New American Magazine.

  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - August 16th - 1 Timothy 6:12

    1 Timothy 6:12

    Fight the good fight for the true faith. Hold tightly to the eternal life to which God has called you, which you have declared so well before many witnesses.

    As Paul draws towards the end of his letter to Timothy, he gives his young friend a huge amount of encouragement. He describes him as a man of God and urges him to be the best that he could possibly be. Paul, of all people, knew the frailties of Timothy, but he tells him to run as fast as he can from anything that might hold him back. Encouragement is so important, isn’t it? We all need it in whatever we do, especially when we are facing challenges, and Paul has no doubt that Timothy is going to face enormous difficulties and intense persecution.
    Many people see the expression “fight the good fight” as a reference to the Olympic Games, but Paul may well have been using military language. Either way, the challenge is clear. The journey ahead was going to be tough, and Timothy needed to be totally dedicated to his faith. The Christian life cannot be seen as a hobby that we pick up from time to time if the mood takes us. Living for Christ will demand the best of us, because it is the best possible life to live. No other life could possibly be more full of love, joy and peace, or offer us the blessing of eternal life.
    As I look back through my Christian life, I am acutely conscious that anything that I have ever achieved for God has been closely related to the encouragement that others have given me. I’m simply not that strong by myself. I have needed the love, care, prayerfulness and belief of others who have put courage into me at just the right time. I suspect the people around you also need encouragement, and you may be ideally placed to give them the courage which they lack.

    Question

    Who might you be able to encourage over the next few days, and how?

    Prayer

    Lord God, I thank you for those who have faithfully encouraged me over the years. Help me to become more effective in encouraging others. Amen
