Jesus offers a way of escape from temptation. "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil."

Our prayer must be connected to a sincere, humble willingness to obey God.

Ryan Ballard ministers the word of God from Ephesians and Revelation with a warning to complacent churches and Christians. Do not forget your first love.

The Lord's Prayer offers us a framework for our own conversations with God.

We have an example, a great power, and a great friend in Jesus Christ to stand against temptation.

The praise of men is an intoxication temptation. If we fall into it's lure, we lose the reward of our Father.

There is danger in doing the right things for the wrong reasons. Glory belongs to God. Let us not be thieves.

Our testimony of God's goodness can be seen in how well we treat those who don't treat us well.

Christ calls us to a better response when we are treated poorly by others. He empowers us in that better response through his assurance of a better possession in eternity.
