Even though our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, God's people continually struggle to live lives which are pleasing to the Lord. Modesty is always the best policy.

Friends Paul reminds the church in Philippians 2 that we are to be clothed with humility. It's not a suggestion but a key aspect of every Christian's life.

Paul's message to the Church at Ephesus reminds them about the truce Grace of God as promised through the gospel.

Jesus has saved us and given us every spiritual blessing and our response to this should be one of thanksgiving, gratitude, and faithfulness. As it is many professed believers live against him in word and deed. We don't live with humility, love with sincerity, nor do we long to be in his presence. This comes from forgetting and neglecting the basic truths of the faith. Baptism, prayer, laying on of hands and other spiritual truths. Friends do not allow your faith to suffer by persisting in Sin and leaving Christ to public shame and humiliation.

Friends it has become common place for Christians to use words that fall into the category of gossip, slander, vulgarity, put downs, etc.. This is ultimately a DisGrace to the one who saved us.

There seems to be a complete misunderstanding and misapplication and misappropriation of the Grace of God. This series focuses on the true Grace of God contrasted with the DisGrace which has overwhelmed the hearts and minds of God's people.

This is the third message in the series, The Fruit of the Spirit. This final message encourages every believer to peer into the mirror of God's word and pray by faith for an over flowing of the spiritual fruit which the Lord desires to see in each of us.

As every believer grows, the Holy Spirit empowers them with spiritual fruit. This message focuses on the first three.

We live in a world with pain, uncertainty, sin, evil, and wickedness; but every day God promises loving kindness, new mercies, & unfailing compassion. There is no one like the Lord.

Because of what we have received in Christ every believer can express their spiritual transformation through song. The Psalmist encourages God's people to rejoice over the supernatural power of our Heavenly Father, by singing a new song. May this message encourage you as your New Year begins.
