Episode Information: 1. The Old Testament Laws from God Exodus 20:12 “Honor your...mother that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.” Exodus 21:15 “Whoever strikes his...mother shall be put to death.” Exodus 21:17 “Whoever curses his...mother shall be put to death.” Leviticus 19:3 “Everyone of you shall revere his mother.” Deuteronomy 27:16 “Cursed be anyone who dishonors...his mother, & all the people shall say, ‘Amen’.” 2. The New Testament Teachings from God Matthew 15:4; 19:9 “Jesus said, “...Honor...your mother.” Ephesians 6:1-2 “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor your father & mother, this is the first commandment with a promise, that it may go well with you & that you may live long in the land.” 3. The Warnings: How to Dishonor Your Mother Prov. 10:1 “...a foolish son is a sorrow to his mother.” Prov. 15:20 “...a foolish man despises his mother. “ Prov. 19:26 “He who...chases away his mother is a son who brings shame & reproach.” Prov. 20:20 “If one curses his...mother, his lamp will be put out in utter darkness.” Prov. 23:22 “...do not despise your mother when she is old.” Prov. 23:25 “Let your...mother be glad, let her who bore you rejoice.” Prov. 28:24 “Whoever robs...his mother & says, “That is no transgression” is a companion to a man who destroys.” Prov. 30:17 “The eye that...scorns to obey a mother will be picked out by the ravens of the valley & eaten by the vultures.” 4.

Mark 3:31-35 “Then His mother & His brothers arrived, & standing outside they sent word to Him & called Him. A crowd was sitting around Him, & they said to Him, "Behold, Your mother & Your brothers are outside looking for You.” Answering them, He said, "Who are My mother & My brothers?” Looking about at those who were sitting around Him, He said, "Behold My mother & My brothers! For whoever does the will of God, he is My brother & sister & mother.“ 6. The Continuation of the Family of God in Christ! Psalms 113:9 “He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the Lord!” 1 Timothy 5:1-2 “Do not sharply rebuke an older man, but rather appeal to him as a father, to the younger men as brothers, the older women as mothers, & the younger women as sisters, in all purity.” 7. Mothers, be Honorable for the Family of God in Christ! Titus 2:1-5 “But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine. Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, & in steadfastness. Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, & so train the young women to love their husbands & children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, & submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.”

Episode Information: Romans 8:1-11 “Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin & of death.” “Now the Lord is the Spirit, & where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” 2 Cor.3:17 “For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh & as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.” “Walk by the Spirit!” Gal.5:16 “For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life & peace, because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, & those who are in the flesh cannot please God." “Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit!” Eph.4:30 “However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him. If Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.” “By this we know that we abide in Him & He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.” 1 John 4:13 “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you." “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit & are life.” John 6:63 Set My Soul Afire Chorus 1 Set my soul afire Lord Set my soul afire Make my life a witness Of Thy saving pow'r Millions grope in darkness Waiting for Thy word Set my soul afire Lord set my soul afire Verse 1 Set my soul afire Lord For Thy Holy Word Burn it deep within me Let Your voice be heard Millions grope in darkness In this day and hour I will be a witness Fill me with Thy pow'r Verse 2 Set my soul afire Lord For the lost in sin Give to me a passion As I seek to win Help not to falter Never let me fail Fill me with Thy Spirit Let Thy will prevail Verse 3 Set my soul afire Lord In my daily life Far too long I've wandered In this day of strife Nothing else will matter But to live for Thee I will be Your witness As You live in me "do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit that He has made to dwell in us." James 4:5

Episode Information: 2 Kings 19 2 Chronicles 33 Isaiah 10 Philippians 4:6-7 Hezekiah and Isaiah go to the Lord with the threats of Rabshakeh and Sennacherib of Assyria. God reveals that although Assyria was the rod of His wrath to bring on His righteous judgments against Godless-ness, Assyria had become haughty, proud and arrogant and would be dealt with swiftly and on a single day. God miraculously spares His people and provides for them and demonstrates that He can always be trusted to be faithful!

Episode Information: The Spiritual Gift of Exhortation and Encouragement is explained to Youth.

Episode Information: (The beginning of this recording is of the offering prayer and special music in our service where the youth, led by Beth James, brought me forward to the stage as she sang "Thank You" by Ray Boltz, and the youth, one by one, handed me thank you cards and hugged me to say thank you on Pastor Appreciation Sunday. I share it with you now because of it's obvious affect on the sermon, the message, and of course, the messenger. If you've not thanked your Pastor lately, please do so today. The recording is a little bumpy at first because of this, so fair warning. Thank you for listening and may this message truly encourage your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus! ~Pastor Rob) "To think that I can ever be sufficient in any capacity on my own or in addition to the kindness of God’s gift of Christ Jesus is to deny the very identity and person of the Savior, his work, and his loving mercy which found the means to grant us grace through the satisfaction of His holy standard through His son’s suffering sacrifice. The idea of any work, including baptism or obedience to any form of law, as a means to justify ourselves or bring us into the merit or favor of God is at it’s core humanistic and anti-Christ. Therefore, no flesh will be justified in God’s sight which has indulged the religious notion that by actions of it’s own flesh, in accordance with any law, can have added to it the grace of God through Jesus Christ as a mere salting upon our own meat of worth and boasting. Note that it was those whom Christ did not know that did much in His name that were cast out forever, yet those who knew Him unassumingly served Him in the works His own grace had foreknown and prepared that they might walk therein to the praise of His glory and in agreement with His word."

Episode Information: Hebrews 5:12-14 “For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, & you have come to need milk & not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he’s an infant. But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good & evil.” Questions to Consider: Time “by this time you ought to be teachers” 1. How long have I known the Lord? 2. How often do I spend time praying? 3. How often do I read God’s Word? 4. How often am I taught Scripturally? 5. How long’s it been since I really sought out opportunities to put into practice what my teachers, pastor, & my own personal study of God’s Word are trying to tell me? Questions to Consider: Experience “you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God” 1. Am I understanding what I’m hearing? 2. Do I ask questions about what I hear? 3. Have I rationalized against being taught? 4. Is God using me at all in other lives? 5. Am I ready to move beyond the simple message of the Gospel into deeper things? Questions to Consider: Accustom “you have come to need milk & not solid food. For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he’s an infant” 1. Am I uncomfortable with conviction? 2. Am I uncomfortable with Christians? 3. Am I uncomfortable with change? 4. Am I uncomfortable with Church? 5. Am I ready to admit that my faith needs to move forward into a mature, self-less, everyday service to my savior, Christ? Questions to Consider: Calling “But solid food is for the mature, ” 1. Agree with God: you’re called to grow! 2. Agree with God: you’re called to sow! 3. Agree with God: you’re not alone! 4. Pastors & teachers are called… 5. The mark of maturity is an increasing humility & service to Christ, a “letting go” of fleshy/worldly things, & a growing application of His Word in your daily life. Questions to Consider: Healthy “who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good & evil, ” 1. Put your faith into practice! 2. Sensitive to the Spirit! 3. Trained by teachers! 4. Discernment is a disciple’s discipline! 5. You’re called to grow into more of God & away from evil. True Spirituality’s a Steak you’ve been longing for your whole life!
