    Lessons from the Mission Field

    This lesson sets forth some lessons learned from my experience in the Mission Field. 1) The poor are always with us, 2) The less one has, the more one values what one does have, 3) A good attitude toward life and work comes from the knowledge that one is serving God. 4) Time is our most important sacrifice. Each member should reflect upon their own attitudes in comparison to those of the brethren in the Mission Field. I want to communicate the idea that it does not take a lot to do a lot.

    The Fruit of the Spirit is Longsuffering

  • Who Will Enter the Kingdom of Heaven?

    What does it take to enter the kingdom of heaven? 1) Faith Only is not Enough, 2) A Semblance of Sanctimony is not Enough, 3) Doing the Will of the Father is Key. Each person should understand that it takes both faith and action to enter the kingdom of heaven. This sermon seeks to show by Jesus’ teaching that salvation by faith only is a false doctrine.

    Freedom in Christ brings joy when we 1) beware of false identities of the flesh, 2) count all things loss for Christ, 3) identify wholly with Christ.

  • The Teaching of Christ

    Christian unity is based upon the teaching of Christ. We are united as Christians and without the teaching of Christ we are not Christians. This teaching is summarized in the list of seven “ones” in Ephesians 4:4-6. Each person should understand that for us to have unity as Christians we must adhere to the same standards of the teaching of Christ.

    The Baptism of Christ

    In this lesson we want to look at the Baptism of Christ. We will note that the Baptism of Christ is: 1) A burial in water. 2) An action of faith. 3) God’s work of righteousness. Everyone needs to be able to discuss what the baptism of Christ is in relationship to the plan of salvation. Not many in the religious world today understand it. But it is part of the great commission and we must preach and teach it. To encourage the brethren to teach others about the Baptism of Christ.

    Christ has all authority because 1) He is the Creator, 2) We were created for Him, 3) He supports and sustains us, 4) He is the head of the church, 5) The fullness of God dwells in Him, 6) He reconciles all things to Himself by His sacrifice.

  • The Joy of Sacrifice and Service

    We have joy in Christ through the sacrifice and service of 1) Obedience, 2) Doing All Things Without Murmuring or Complaining, and 3) Holding Fast the Word of Life. Each person should understand that sacrifice and service bring joy to our lives because we are not focusing on self, but God and others. Ultimately, joy does not come by focusing on ourselves but on God and others.
