Some clarifications to February 9th sermon.  Specifically about gossip and what is it.

How does Christ being in all change the way we treat each other.  Anger, wrath, slander and obscene talk are all something we need to putout of our lives, but they just keep coming up time and time again.  Putting on Christ does make a difference in how we live.

Jesus or Barabbas?  It's a question as to which one you will choose.  The way of Jesus or the way of Barabbas is one question we need to ask ourselves each day.  Choose wisely.

How is coveting idolatry?  Let's explore.

We are told by Paul is Colossians 3:5 to put to death sexual immorality in our lives.  Why do Christians have such a different standard about sexuality than the world around us.  Let's explore why God cares so deeply about how we express ourselves sexually.

God has put eternity in our hearts.  We know there is more and we have questions about purpose and meaning in our lives.  Let's see what Ecclesaistes 3:9-15 can tell us about this.

That which is, already has been; that which is to be, already has been; Ecclesiastes 3:15 ESV. Interesting verse!  How are we to understand this?  Let's explore how "that which is to be has already been."

Set your mind on things above.  How do we do that?  Let's exlpore.

When the wise men came to Jerusalem and asked about the king of the Jews Herod was upset.  He was bothered there was another king.  What about us?  Are we really willing to let Jesus be king or are we bothered as well that Jesus is the true king and not us?

Jesus was a "man of sorrows" yet we sing "Joy to the World."  It was because he bore our sorrows that we are able to sing about Joy.
