Remitted part 1

This one takes some getting into, but we've got a few days for each Rant series so that works out. I want to start with the end and then work backwards. 1 John 2:12, "I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake." Realistically, that's all I need to say....

Let's do a little Message Bible to end this Rant series, "God's wisdom is something mysterious that goes deep into the interior of his purposes. You don't find it lying around on the surface. It's not the latest message, but more like the oldest--what God determined as the way to bring out his best...

The mystery is God's love for us. Because a lot of the time it doesn't seem to make any sense. We are our own worst enemies a lot of the time. Because we are with ourselves ALL of the time. We know the worst things we've done. We know what we're capable of on our worst days. And those bad things...

The Mystery part 3

The thing that I want to make as clear as possible... is that the mystery has been revealed. It's not a mystery anymore. Look at Ephesians 1:7-9, "In whom we haev redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all...

The coolest thing about the mystery of God... is that it has been revealed in the person of Jesus. Man got into a lot of trouble because of what he didn't know. He swallowed the lie that said, "You have to do in order to be." The lie that said, "If you eat from this tree, you will be like God." And...

I like to be right about things. Not a state secret, eh? It's surely better than the alternative. But the thing about God is that He doesn't want us to lean on our own understanding. He wants us to trust HIM. He wants us to know that He's in control. Be still and know that HE is God, right? Every...

Steadfast part 5

Stick with me as we end this Rant series tonight. Because I want to drop my memory verse first and then build off of it. 1 Corinthians 2:4-5, "And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not...

"And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock" (Matthew 7:25). I try not to start these Rants with a Bible verse, but I like this one. It's kind of dramatic. The storm came! But don't worry, because...

If you want something different, do something different. Unless you're building something. In which case, stay the course. Because Rome wasn't built in a day. Sometimes you have to be steadfast in doing what you know to do, even when it's hard. Even when it seems like what you're doing isn't making...

Steadfast part 2

01/23/2020 20:00

I know the word "steadfast" has the word "fast" in it. But I think that might be one of those ironic things. Because, really, it's more of a "slow and steady wins the race" kind of deal. A "Rome wasn't built in a day" kind of thing. Love never fails, because love endures. Is what I'm trying to...
