The battle of a congregation to maintain its soundness is an ongoing struggle and every member must be fully engaged in the conflict with the armor of God and the sword of the Spirit.

As divine and important as love is, we sometimes feel and act as though our love for others is wearing thin. The church in Corinth faced that problem. They had divine gifts and superb teachers, and yet Paul dealt with several problems that indicated their love for one another was wearing thin. And then, like a beautiful flower that blooms in the desert, Paul described the love of God. Paul showed us that when love is wearing thin the solution is to speak of God’s love more often and more emphatically. Follow along in this series of lessons from 1 Corinthians 13:4-7.

One of the great tragedies of the Old Testament is that of King Manasseh. His life certainly proves that sin pays no dividend beyond the actual immediate pleasure of it (Eph 5:5-6; Gal 6:7-8).

The Israelites would have many lessons to learn and relearn through the centuries, from the Lord their God, but if they had simply learned and passed on to their children the lessons learned at Jericho then they could have avoided many of the problems they would face later.
What did God teach Israel at Jericho? They are lessons appropriate for Christians and the church today.

We live in a society where the Creator’s roles for men and women are under relentless attack. It is also an ongoing battle in the church. However, no one can change what God has ordained - and meet with His approval. We can begin to wage this warfare by understanding God’s order of leadership, and His roles for the husband and wife.

God’s house, the church (1 Tim 3:15), is a great house full of many types of vessels. Some vessels are useful to God, while others are not. The beauty in our text is that Paul tells us we can choose to be a “vessel of honor” instead of a “vessel of dishonor”. How is it done? 2 Timothy 2:21.

The gospel of Christ calls all Christians together in view of “one hope” (Eph 4:4). Eternal life in Heaven (Col 1:5; Titus 1:2-3), the object of our hope, is not just wishful thinking, or a whimsical dream about the future; it is a matter of certainty!

There is a fierce ongoing battle being waged between good and evil, righteousness and wickedness. That battle was lost in Sodom and Gomorrah in Lot’s day (Gen 19). What is even sadder was that the battle was lost in Lot’s family. Let us consider the consequences of that tragic state “When Sodom Lived in Lot’s Family”.

The psalmist wrote, “I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times” (77:5). Much good can result from considering ancient times, especially God’s ancient people. Today we want to consider an ancient truth that God expressed to Israel, but which also has an application to the church.

How we view the Bible will determine whether or not we join in the general apostasy of the church. Therefore we must view the Bible as the perfect revelation from the perfect God.
