Walking in Truth

So often the leaders people look up to in the world today are haughty, selfish, and unloving. These leaders can even be in the church. Today, Pastor Johnny will encourage you to seek and follow God as you lead in love and humility. When He guides you as you lead, you’ll do well and succeed as God empowers.  

Many times, people serve in ministry and in the church for accolades and attention. You hope that people will notice all you’re doing, and pray that you’re liked and appreciated.  Well, today Pastor Johnny will encourage you instead to work and serve and minister in order to please God alone. God sees what no one else does.

Learning doctrine and theology is crucial in your life of faith.  But, it can’t be all there is to your faith, Pastor Johnny teaches today. Like the apostle Paul, like Gaius, like many in scripture, it’s important to take the wisdom you learn in the word and turn and live it out in your life and take the word to others!

Today, we hear from Pastor Johnny’s message that the apostle John wrote letters to various churches and people talking about God’s truth and love in terms they could relate to. Think of it like peanut butter and jelly. They’re BEST together. Did you know Satan doesn’t want ANYONE to experience Jesus through these two avenues?

Our actions are always telling. They either support or discredit what we believe. In the life of a Christian, we’re not only called to love but also to be discerning because Satan will try to deceive us. In the passage that Pastor Johnny teaches from today, we must pay close attention to the condition of our hearts when it comes to love.

Do you want to be the person who’s always doing good and making a difference in this world? I know I do. If we think about the Christian life, there are two ideas that MUST work hand in hand to accomplish this. In Pastor Johnny’s message, he explains why it’s vitally important to have both truth and love in our lives.

When we properly understand prayer it can be one of the most powerful things in the life of a believer. There is no prayer that goes unanswered. In today’s message, Pastor Johnny will be sharing about the power that prayer has in the life of a believer. Because of Jesus, we can approach the throne of God with boldness. 

The message of the Gospel is so simple that some of the early church couldn’t actually believe it. Some of the churches that Paul wrote to would try and add things to the Gospel. It’s the simplicity of the Gospel that makes it so good! In today’s message, Pastor Johnny will be reminding us of the simple Gospel.

Because of our sin, there was a price to pay to get back to the Father. None of us would be able to pay this price by ourselves. It was Jesus who was able to pay the price for our sins by willingly giving up His life for ours. In today’s message, Pastor Johnny will be reminding us of the great sacrifice that Jesus made for us.

The main motivator for everything that God does is love. Whenever we look at how Jesus did ministry, it was always motivated by love. This is the same charge that Jesus gave to us as his disciples, to do all things out of love. In today’s message, Pastor Johnny will be reminding us to love people in everything we do!
