Putting Gluttony To Death
Gluttony is sometimes referred to as the "acceptable sin" - it is perhaps the most accepted sin in the world and in the church. Gluttony can be defined as eating the wrong things at the wrong times for the wrong reasons. God gave us our bodies for His use and His glory, therefore, our passion should be to glorify Him more than satisfying ourselves. Maintaining this perspective can be a powerful remedy for the temptation to gluttony.

The Model Church
Acts 2:42-47 provides a concise description of the first church. These verses include seven characteristics of a church that pleases and honors the Lord. Members of the early church were comprised totally of believers who were steadfast and worshiped in awe and wonder. They shared much and were unified such that they were stimulated immensely by the company of other believers. Finally, the early churched shined and grew in number by growing in edification and going forth to share the gospel with those outside the church. If today's church is faithful to this model, it will experience many blessings from the Lord.

Putting Lust To Death
The greatest challenge in the sanctification process for most Christians in this day and age is lust. But there is help and hope for all to stay sexually pure. Pastor Ramey outlines seven principles found in 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8 that make purity possible. These principles are effective when they are applied every day in the life of a believer.

The Sermon Heard Round The World
There are three reasons why God so powerfully blessed Peter's inaugural sermon at Pentecost. It was bible-based, Christ-centered, and application-aimed. Peter's sermon sets an example of how to deliver the gospel message and we can pattern our proclamations of the gospel after Peter's so that we can be powerful witnesses for Christ.

Mortification
The Bible teaches that over time we must 'mortify' the sin in our lives through the power of the Spirit and that to do otherwise may indicate lack of salvation. In Romans 8:13 Paul instructs that the Holy Spirit provides us with the energy and power to continually and gradually kill the sin in our lives. This process is never completed in our lives until after we die. The means the Holy Spirit uses to accomplish this process is our faithful obedience to the simple commands of Scripture.

Let The Nations Be Glad
Psalm 67 includes prayer, praise, thanksgiving, historical reminder, and imprecation. It expresses a pride in Jehovah God for His care over His people and His majesty in the universe. Pastor Tyson illustrates this exuberant psalm using the analogy of four chambers of the psalmist's heart: The psalmist's petition, purpose, passion, and prediction.
