Jesus is a taker.  The most spectacular robbery in history didn’t happen in a movie.  It happened on a hill called Calvary where Jesus died and took our sins on Himself.  He is a taker, who came to take away what we don’t need (our sins) and give us what we do need (our salvation).

The Apostle Paul set an example for us when he was addressing the Galatian believers about the errors of their doctrine.  He equated the process to the “travails of childbirth” as he struggled to help them understand.  His ultimate goal was see the likeness of Christ formed in them. So, we can learn from Paul as we seek...

How do you reach someone with the truth of God’s Word, when they are confused about a doctrinal issue and believing an error?  You have to start by showing them your genuine concern for them and allowing them to sense your heart of compassion for them.  If you don’t start there, then they may confuse you with the “doctrine...

In his writing, Shakespeare referred to jealousy as a “green-eyed monster”—and as Pastor Ford will point out today, that is a very fitting analogy. Jealousy can have many negative effects and it can destroy us, if we’re not careful. Learn more about how to combat jealousy on today’s Treasured Truth.

As we continue to learn more about jealousy, Pastor Ford will not only share the negative effects that jealousy can have, but he’ll also share with us some practical ways to defeat jealousy and prevent it from taking root in our lives.

According to Pastor Ford, learning to be content with what you already have is one way to avoid being jealous of others.  And for those of us who are believers in Jesus and are seeking to honor Him with our lives, another way we can escape jealousy’s grip is to simply ask ourselves—can we glorify the Lord through our jealousy? ...

Salvation is by grace.  So, in the process of salvation, we don’t help God out.  As we look at the passage we’re studying today, Pastor Ford will explain that Paul is saying the promise God made to Abraham and Sarah is very much like our salvation.  God does not need our help to perform any act or to bring anything...

Have you ever received a pardon, but refused it?  Today we’ll hear about a man named George Wilson, who did just that.  And Pastor Ford will explain that there are too many people who are like that.  God gives them the pardon they need, but they reject His offer.

As we learn more about how we can transition from doctrine to duty, Pastor Ford will explain that what is learned in the holy place, should be lived in the marketplace.  So, he’ll encourage us to take what we are learning in church with us and share it with the world.  If we were doing that more often, then more people would...

Today, Pastor Ford will explain that Paul’s teaching in Galatians makes it clear that the gospel of Jesus Christ doesn’t repudiate the law, but rather, the law is fulfilled in the gospel.  Because the central core and motivation behind what Jesus did for us is the fact that He loves us.  And in return, we should love...
