Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your FATHER which is in heaven. (Matthew 5:16)


For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. (1 Corinthians 13:12)


And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. (1 Corinthians 13:13)


Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; (1 Corinthians 13:4-5)


Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:  for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your FATHER which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?  (Matthew 7:7-11)


Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the FATHER… (James 1:17)


JESUS made nothing complicated


LORD, I believe; help THOU mine unbelief. (Mark 9:24)


Walk soft and humble


Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, (Hebrews 12:1)


Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of CHRIST, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, (Hebrews 6:1)


Looking unto JESUS the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before HIM endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of GOD. (Hebrews 12:2)


Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. (John 12:24)


And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto ME. (John 12:32)


For consider HIM that endured such contradiction of sinners against HIMSELF, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, my son, despise not thou the chastening of the LORD, nor faint when thou art rebuked of HIM:  for whom the LORD loveth HE chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom HE receiveth. If ye endure chastening, GOD dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. (Hebrews 12:3-8)

  Christ Church, The Perfect Gospel September 27, 2020 God is a Good GOD People say they’re serving the LORD But in word and deed they deny HIM THY word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against THEE. (Psalms 119:11) People say they know GOD But in deed they are denying HIM We have to have HIM in us If we’re going to serve GOD, then we have to do exactly what GOD says for us to do. …If any man will come after ME, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow ME. (St. Matthew 16:24) Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. (Luke 8:12) Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. (St John 15:3) If a man love ME, he will keep MY words… (St. John 14:23) …and I will love him, and will manifest MYSELF to him.

  Christ Church, The Perfect Gospel September 20, 2020 These things I have spoken unto you, that in ME ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. (St. John 16:33) For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth. (2 Corinthians 13:8) Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. (Hebrews 13:1-2) Praise ye the LORD. Praise GOD in HIS sanctuary: praise HIM in the firmament of HIS power. Praise HIM for HIS mighty acts: praise HIM according to HIS excellent greatness. Praise HIM with the sound of the trumpet: praise HIM with the psaltery and harp. Praise HIM with the timbrel and dance: praise HIM with stringed instruments and organs. Praise HIM upon the loud cymbals: praise HIM upon the high sounding cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD. (Psalms 150:1-6) But the day of the LORD will come as a th...
