Las Gavillas Llenas
LAS GAVILLAS LLENAS (SALMO 126) Si existe un pueblo que conoce de esclavitud, ese es Israel. Por mucho tiempo fueron esclavos de Egipto, luego de los Asirios, luego de Babilonios. En 1516 el rey Ciro dio libertad a los hebreos para regresar. Cuando llegaron a su pueblo encontraron destrucción y ruinas en sus ciudades, campos llenos de maleza, necesitaban reconstruir todo. Aceptaron el reto y se apresuraron a los campos con tristeza y lagrimas al ver la enorme tarea que tenían por delante. Pronto comprendieron que vendría un tiempo de cosecha y se llenarían con gozo con las enormes gavillas. Este Salmo habla de la “Gran Comisión”, todos somos responsables de ella.

El Suceso Mas Grande en El Mundo
EL SUCESO MÁS GRANDE EN EL MUNDO - (1 Tes. 4:13-18) Jesús quien murió y resucito vendrá otra vez a este mundo. Millones de personas aceptan intelectualmente esta verdad, solo son unos cuantos los que permiten que esto cambie sus vidas, así que este suceso puede ser el hecho mas extraño en la Historia. ¿Que ajustes tendría usted que hacer en su vida si supiera que Cristo viniera hoy? Hay señales que nos advierten que la venida del Señor esta cerca. Israel se constituyo como Nación hace exactamente 60 años, guerras y rumores de guerras, el mundo se esta preparando para recibir al anticristo, y hay muchas señales en la naturaleza. ¿Que acontecerá cuando El venga?

Dangerous Devotion: Kingdom Life According to Saul
Israel's first king is a violent and volatile man, large in stature and small in character. He plunges from the pinnacle of God's favor to a position of arrogance and rebellion against God. The prophet Samuel confronts Saul in a moment of open disobedience to God. We all learn in that dramatic moment that it is more important to do what God says than to try to appease him with religious activities.

Part 5: A Blessing To The Nations
A Blessing To The Nations The gospel preached to Abraham was good news that God would bless the nations through Abraham. God truly would redeem the earth. This good news finds its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus. After rising from the dead, Jesus explained to his disciples the story of Israel, the story of Abraham. His explanation is radical--Israel's story was always the story of Jesus.

Shockwave: The Sacking of Jerusalem
Israel was divided into two kingdoms, northern and southern, after Solomon's reign. The northern kingdom, called Israel, ended in 722 B.C. with the fall of its capital city, Samaria. The southern kingdom of Judah fell to Babylon in 587 B.C. and her population was largely displaced. So begins the Excile.

History IQ: Kingdom Life According to Solomon
Perhaps you have wished that a wealthy benefactor would grant you any request you made. What would be your request if there were no limits? The third king of Israel has a reputation as the wisest man who ever lived. God promises to give whatever he desires, and the king asks for wisdom.

Frontline: Kingdom Life According to David
The story of Mephibosheth is a bright spot in the chronicles of David, the second and greatest king of Israel. This story shows us something of the heart of a man who could pen Psalm 23, "the Lord is my shepherd." The themes of friendship, loyalty, and mercy come through strong. A hardened military leader certainly has the capacity to love God and his fellow man. The mystery of God's unearned favor is paralleled by the mystery of human grace bestowed.

Faith Gives Us Eyes To See (Romans 3:27-31)
Faith changes the way we see everything. It changes the way we see ourselves -- there is no occasion for boasting in ourselves, only in our savior. It changes the way we see others -- we are no different from or better than others, only recipients of the gifts of grace and mercy, which others need just as well. And it changes the way we see God's Law -- the Law is no longer the way we earn God's favor, but it is a guide to how we can live a life pleasing to the one who has saved us.

When Memory Matters
God's mercy to Israel because he remembered his covenant with Abraham is a powerful reminder of the God who never forgets, especially in light of the new covenant, by which Christians stand, written in the blood of Jesus.

Things As They Really Are
Far from being irrelevant, God's rebuke of idolatry through the prophet Jeremiah is a reminder to us that our idolatry can only be cured when we walk with a vision of God's unique greatness.

What Really Matters
In the closing verses of Galatians the Apostle Paul explains that nothing outward matters. Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision. Then what does matter. The Apostle Paul says the only thing that matters is a new creation. In this message we will examine what it means to be a child of Abraham and what it is that really matters in regard to our salvation.

Cow
God revealed Himself to his people as a God whose beginning is not known. So at Mt. Sinai, the people of God exchanged this God they could not control for an idol with more mangeable qualities. Today, we worship money which promises to give us power over our lives, rather than risk it with a God who is beyond our control. When Jesus called a rich dude to give it all up, He really called him to give up where he had security and instead place his trust in Jesus. Are we choosing the safety of the known (what is our golden/sacred cow?), rather than following Jesus?

The Long Dark Night
Long dark nights of the soul are devastating to one unanchored in the promise of God in Jesus Christ. They shape our view of the world around us and dictate our responses to the life in which God has placed us. Yet to the one seeking after God, these dark nights of the soul are one of God’s must useful instruments to change us through his grace that comes only through Jesus Christ. Sometimes God takes through long dark nights in our souls to demonstrate our own helplessness apart from Him. It is His desire that we come to a place of total dependence and submission to His will, to abandon ourselves to Him. Jesus told His disciples, “Apart from me, you can do nothing.” It is a lesson we must all learn. Today, in the life of Jacob, we see a long dark night of wrestling, resolved only at daybreak with a prayer, an answer, and a life forever changed.

Malachi Giving God your best
It is just as true now as it was in Malachi's time. We are to honor God with our best. We are to honor God with our marriages, and we are to honor God with our money, we are to honor him with our lives because the day of the lord is coming.

The unequal wrestle
Imagine that you are alone, walking down a dark alley in the middle of the night, surrounded by shadows, with all sorts of fears crowding in on your mind, not the least being a guilty conscience concerning your brother whom you have defrauded. Suddenly, someone or something knocks you to the ground, and seeks to pin you there under his weight. This is what it was like for Jacob. He was assaulted. Who is it? Is it Esau?

Blessing and Curse
In Galatians 3:9-14 Paul tells us that we are blessed along with Abraham the man of faith. We also learn that the Law and Faith are two diametrically opposed systems of salvation. This makes it utterly impossible for the saints of the O.T. to have been saved by the Law. Indeed if a Law had come that brought blessing, then Christ died for no purpose! In this sermon Pastor Jeremy brings to a close his explanation of why the Dispensational distinction between Israel and the Church is a problem when we read this section of Galatians.

Our Golden Calves (Exodus 32-34)
We see in Israel's worshiping the golden calf a picture of all idolatry. Idolatry establishes a counterfeit god, religion, and salvation. God jealously protects our love for him and forcefully opposes our idolatry. The way out of idolatry is repentance, grounded in our sure hope that God will show us mercy through Jesus our Savior. Idols only bring us weariness and unending demands; only Jesus can give us life, rest, and joy.

Praying the hard option
Ken Stebbins, Teaching Elder of the Presbyterian Reformed Church in Everton Park, presents the 2nd sermon in our Elijah: Man of Prayer series. In the first of four Family Camp messages, we learn that Elijah prayed in tough times and chose tough options: "he prayed earnestly that it would not rain." Elijah was not afraid to confront society with its rebellion against God.

The Mosaic Covenant (Exodus 19 - 24)
God's covenants are progressive revelations of himself and progressive provisions for his people. In each of his covenants, God changes his relationship to his people forever. We see in the giving of the Mosaic covenant that God comes to dwell among his people, which is a foretaste of the nearness to God that we experience in fellowship with Jesus. We also see that God gives law in each of his covenants as a good gift to his people, to govern their lives and to teach his will.

Faith in the Wilderness (Exodus 15:22 - 18:27)
After seeing God's great power and glory, Israel falls into escalating grumbling as God brings them through the wilderness. Moses, however, retains his faith in "the LORD my banner". Without denying the very real and agonizing hardships we experience in life, we must resist the temptation to unbelief and grumbling and must remind ourselves of God's goodness and faithfulness. He will surely continue to sustain us through trials.

With a Mighty Hand and Outstretched Arm (Exodus 13:17 - 15:21)
God set his love on an undeserving people and delivered them out of slavery by his mighty power, for his glory, and for their good. This points ahead to our own experience of salvation in Jesus. We ought to consider our own deliverance out of sin with great gratitude and rejoicing.

A People Chosen by God (Exodus 4 - 6)
God's sovereignty is displayed in His choosing Moses to deliver Israel, Israel to be His people, and Pharaoh to oppose God and receive God's judgment. In all this God seeks to display and magnify His glory. The only proper response to God's sovereignty, and to our undeserved salvation, is humility, gratitude and joy.

In the Beginning
Matt Heerema shares that creation is a picture of God's mercy and justice when he gave us the earth. All of creation always points to God as the creator except for us. We are given the choice to love God, or reject Him, for if we have no choice would it be love? Sin entered the world when Adam and Eve betrayed God's command and God created a convenant nation of Israel and gave system of sacrifices to pay for their sins. Despite the sacrifices Israel still fell awaay from God and He allowed them to be conquered by other nations.

Numbers 6:22-27
Even in the midst of wildnerness and wandering, God speaks words of blessing into our lives. This week, we examine the three-fold blessing God gave to Aaron for Israel, recorded in Numbers 6:22-27, and consider its implications for our lives today.
