Last updated on: April 17, 2009 at 8:12 pm By Jim Erwin

Luke 10:25-27 Real Christianity – Loving the Community There are those who hurt. This represents the community we are called to reach. In this parable, the religious man asked “who is my neighbor.” Jesus replies with a graphic description of a “similar” man in desperate circumstances. A man who has been robbed. He is robbed physically of his possessions. He is robbed emotionally of his sanctity and security. He is robbed spiritually of his peace. There are those who hate. ... Read more

Romans 12:1-2 Total Transformation

Last updated on: May 31, 2018 at 8:00 pm By Jim Erwin

Romans 12:1-2 – Total Transformation SHOW THE VIDEO “Jesus VS. Christians”. Presentation is everything. Presentation is defined as – display; a visual representation of something. You and I, if we know Jesus Christ, are a presentation to the world of Jesus. You and I are on display. We visually represent Jesus Christ. We should make the transformation to be more like Jesus. We should not end up being the type of people that the world thinks Christians are. What we... Read more

2 Corinthians 12:1-10 Grace Gives Me Strength – Living By Grace Part 1

Last updated on: May 31, 2018 at 4:48 pm By Jim Erwin

2 Corinthians 12:1-10 Grace Gives Me Strength MAIN THOUGHT: Grace teaches me how to daily depend upon God. COUNTER THOUGHT: When I try to live on just “spiritual experiences”, I can never live a “strong” Christian life. As good as these spiritual experiences with God are, they can never substitute for a daily dependence upon God. The apostle Paul begins by describing one of his special spiritual experiences. He tells the church in Corinth that at one time, he received... Read more
