Greed and Grace
So much time is spent discussing our guilt for doing the things we knew we weren’t supposed to do. But little time is spent with our hearts broken over what He’s called us to do and be for Him. We’ve failed to do what God does and love what God loves. This has caused a great debt that has to be satisfied. If God owns everything, then you’re indebted to Him and Him alone.

The Good Shepherds Sheep
All of the promises of God are yes and amen! This week we look again at Jesus teaching in John 10 regarding His sheep and what He is giving them. Jesus says my Sheep know me and I give them eternal life. This promise is based on Jesus' claim to be able to take His life back again once He has laid it down for His sheep. This is a profound promise with an amazing guarantee. As Christians we need to lay hold of that promise and understand exactly who it is and how He guarantees it to His sheep.

Locking up Your Freedom - Galatians #9
What makes the Christian faith like no other? The good news of God’s grace is the bold claim that we are accepted by God not because we “follow the rules” or “fit the mold” but because Jesus gave his own life to rescue us. But many of us are still trying to earn God’s love with our performance rather than living in the freedom that Jesus has provided for us. In Galatians, Paul warns against the danger of religious systems that value people on grounds of accomplishment or status or cultural agreement. These things lock away our freedom in the futility of legalism, moral superiority and cultural arrogance. Focusing on either the racial/ethnic/cultural superiority or the moral successes of good works denies the gospel and divides Jesus’ followers. Join us as we explore how God offers us true freedom in Jesus and how the freedom of Christ transforms our hearts, our minds and lives.

The Witness of the Spirit (Romans 8:16-17)
The pillar of our security and assurance in our salvation is the gospel. Do you know, understand and believe the gospel? Are you actively and persistently putting your faith in Christ? Here is your primary assurance that you belong to Christ. In addition to this primary means of assurance, we may also draw assurance from the fact that the gospel and word and Spirit are at work in our lives producing the fruit of the Spirit; and from our experience of God's peace and comfort and nearness in the Spirit.

Living in Line with the Gospel
False gospels produce pride and fear which destroy community. The gospel (we are accepted by God thru faith in Jesus' work for us) produces humility and security as a foundation for Christian community.

A Gospel-Changed Life
The false teachers challenged Paul's authority. Paul counters by pointing to the divine origins of his gospel, as evidenced by the remarkable about-face he experienced. False gospels typically put sanctification before justification, or merge them thereby departing from the gospel of grace.
