Be Steadfast in the Lord

By

Sermon by bro. Williams OVEDHE 

 Definition

Steadfast: staying the same for a long time and not changing quickly or unexpectedly.

Introduction: 

Coming together in the habit of Christians in order to sharping one and other for the good works of the lord-the acts of the early Christians.

 II Cor.4:10 when one bears the cross of Christ he accepts the burden of the cross.
 I Cor. 15:58 what God has done for us through Jesus, should move us to the bound in the work of the Lord.

II Cor. 5:10 when one realises that he will give account of his actions before his Creator, then he is motivated to do the will of the Creator, II Cor. 1:7. As we willingly suffered with Christ, we will also partake of the result of our suffering, II Pet. 3:8-9.

What God has said, He will do. What we might consider to be slowness on the part of God to fulfil His promises is not slowness. God is not slow to bring about His promise, Heb. 2:2-3.

Those who violated the law did not escape the punishment of the law, then, certainly those who sin under the law of Christ will not escape punishment, Heb. 10:23.

It is our responsibility to remain committed to that which we confessed, when we came into a covenant relationship with God through immersion, Luke 12:47. Those who are ignorance of Christ’s word will be beaten because they had no remedy for their sin that separated them from God.

Conclusion

 1 Thess. 5:22, we should abstain from all appearances of evil, Heb. 4:13.

TEXT: 1THESS. 5:22 BY: BRO. WILLIAM OVEDHE DEFINITION CHRISTIANS : Are redeemed people who do not belong to themselves but Christ Jesus. ABSTAIN : to not do something, especially, something enjoyable, because you think it is bad for your health or morally wrong. EVIL :  Something that is very bad and harmful. INTRODUCTION:   Christian should remember of the price they are bought by Christ through the blood He shed on the cross of Calvary to redeem them into his kingdom. (Rom. 6:22) Every Christian should remember the usefulness of his former life in sin, in order to appreciate his present life in the grace of God. (2 Pet. 2:20-22). We should try to maintain the grace by not turning to the life of sin from which we have escaped, and not to blasphemed the name of Jesus by our conduct. To disregard  lust of the flesh. And embrace love and grace that was poured out on the cross through the sacrificial offering of the incarnate son of God. (Rom.8:18). Wh...

Teaching: Enemies of the Cross

By
Teacher: Bro JERRY YENIGHA TEXT:- ROM.12:20-21 Let us consider those the bible referred to as enemies of the cross of Christ within the fold and outside the fold of God. These are enemies of God of his way, those who live and walk in  ways that negates the principles of Christianity and the course of Christ . such persons conscious or unconscious are the enemies of God.(Acts 13:10)   ENEMIES OF THE CROSS (Phil. 3:16-19) Note from the text above that Paul is concerned about the subject of ‘’Unity, and Harmony’’ in the church (The body of Christ) the Christians. (‘’walk by the same rule,….same mind’’). He enjoins all believers to follow his ‘’…example and pattern…’’ Not all of us here in Amarata Church are friends of God, so many of us are enemies of the way they profess. WE KNOW THAT GOD HAD ENEMIES: (Judges 5:31, Ps 68:1, 92:9; Rom. 5:10). God’s enemies were and are individuals and nations that acted contrary to his ways and open refusal to obey his will. ...
