Ouch and forward march Time to get motivated daily and stop being complacent. Salvation is for the here and now and not just the hereafter. Live like your saved and don't blend in with the crowd. It's interesting how we tend to justify sin when it's comfortable. We need to change our perspective. Is giving in to this temptation worth dismissing God's glory in our life? Lord, help us take the time to do battle by pondering your Word and not be damaging to your character by being self-indulgent.
Answering Questions Dear Anon,
Since I don't have your email address, I will simply point you to our "edocs" section on our SermonAudio page. There (and also on voiceofvision.org) you will find an article entitled "Why Church Membership?"
I would also suggest that you look at the pdf of this particular sermon.
God bless you.
Question? I "do" many things for the cause of Christ but I am not a "member" of a local church. Am I being deceived about my relationship with Christ?
Great Sermon! This was great it opened my eyes to that I need to follow though that I need to do what I have learned just not what I want to change but change my whole life style
The Best! Every week I say this is Pastors best sermon yet! Right on with the TRUTH and the application thereof. The Word brings life for sure! "If repentence doesn't hurt, it is not repentence". Amen. Keep bringing it, we (I) need this desperately.
Highly Recommended! Know, this, My Beloved Brothers & The Biblical Antidote to Anger are a must listen and study recommendation for all Christians interested in growing spiritually and physically for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Very enlightening and instructive.
Helpful message Thank you for this timely message. Appreciated the picture of Luke 18 and the mask analogy to justification. It is a blessing to hear your support for the true significance of 10-31 - not pagan revelry, but God's mighty gift of repentance and revival. Thank you!
Incredibly practical application! This message is one of the best I've heard. It teaches us the differences in internal and external temptations and how to extinguish them before they become sin. This whole series on James is a "must listen to" series. Thank you for your diligent service sir.
Inspiring Mr. Hatfield, you have an extremely attractive style of preaching. I'm an aspiring pastor and I'd love to have you as a mentor. God bless.
