Pastor Dave Bentley

Starting a series of messages from the Book of Isaiah,  Pastor Dave presents a message that will pull at your heart asking questions regarding our position and relationship with Jesus Christ today.  Do  I present The Glory of God in my life or ( you fill the blank )?  Can I sincerely ask God to Search my heart.? "Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Ghost". Titus 3:5 (KJV).   May God Bless you as you listen.

Jude verse 3 (KJV) says, ".....it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that you should earnestly contend for the faith which was delivered unto the saints."  During these days we are witnessing, at a fast moving pace, the moving away from the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  We are seeing a "what ever feels good" message that is destroying the Truth that we are saved from the penalty of sin completely and only by believing in Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross.  Pastor Dave gives some examples and data that show exactly what is happening in the church today.  May we listen with ears to hear and hearts to receive the Truth that we might truly be SET Free!!!!!and STAND for and contend for The Faith.

2 Cor. 11:4 and Gal 1:6-7 speaks of "Another Gospel".  We are living in the days of "Post Modern Religion" and the influence of FALSE teaching that presents the Gospel as 'whatever seems right for you'.  Pastor Dave gives a clear teaching of the WORD OF GOD.  Galatians 1:7 ".....there be some that trouble you and would pervert the gospel of Christ"(KJV).   Are you listening with ears to hear and confirming for yourself the accuracy and TRUTH according to the Word of God of those that you listen to.?  Matthew 7:14 "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves" (KJV).  May God Bless you and teach you BY HIS SPIRIT as you listen with hearts to receive. 

This is a short portion of a study that Pastor Dave did regarding how we as believers respond to the call to Love even our enemies.  May we each one examine our hearts in this regard.  This is a powerful message and testimony that you need to listen with ears to hear and hearts to receive.  May God Bless you each one as you listen.  

Starting with Eph 4:18 Pastor Dave gives us a real look at what God has to say about the importance of our thinking.  Romans 6 reviewed in light of this subject.  May God Bless you each one as you hear God's Word.  

1 John 5:5 "Who is he that overcometh the world, be he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?" (KJV)  May we be overcomers, not by our own will strength but by FAITH in the one that has already defeated and overcome this world. John 16:33  Jesus said "....but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world" 

1 John chapter 4.  As believers, we are in a spiritual battle BUT GOD He has given to us every thing we need for life and godliness, 2 Peter 1:3,4.

 May you be encouraged this day as you listen to Pastor Dave. AMEN  

1 John chapter 3.  Love of self or Love for God and others, "...let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me." Mark 8:34 KJV  May God by His Spirit teach us this day. 

Love is the outflow of the very Life of Christ in our lives.  In 1 John 3:11 we see the words "..love one another", "love the brethren" over and over.  Is this the outflow of our lives?  Listen with ears to hear and hearts to comprehend what God is telling us in this passage starting with 1 John 3:11.   

I John 2.  If this has always been a question you have had, Be encouraged.  This is your answer.
