    Loving God and Being Transformed by His Word

    Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind (Rom 12.1-2; Matt 22:23-40)

    “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” (Romans 12:1-2, KJV)

    “But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together. Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying, Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” (Matthew 22:34-37, KJV).

    Happy Anniversary: "Being Renewed Day By Day!"

    Happy Anniversary: "Being Renewed Day By Day!"
    Review| I. The Three Places We Can Live Our Lives: 1. "The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned" (1 Corinthians 2:14). 2. "The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one" (1 Corinthians 2:15). 3. "But I, brothers, could not address you as spiritual people, but as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ" (1 Corinthians 3:1). II. The Spiritual Person: 1. thinks humility everyday. Proverbs 23:7 (KJV) 2. submits his/her life to the authority of God's Word. Psalm 19:7 3. surrenders his/her life to the presence of the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5:16 4. settles the issue of whose he/she is. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 5. shares Jesus with others. Mark 1:17 III. But This Is How The Devil Wants To Outwit Us: John 8:44 1. Whatever God intended to be most important in my life, the devil wants me to think it is less important. 2 Corinthians 2:11 2. Whatever God intended to bring the greatest enrichment, to be most precious, and to be the greatest blessing in my life, the devil wants to steal from my life. John 10:10 3. Whtever newness God has brought to my life, the devil wants it to fade and become old in my life. 2 Corinthians 5:17

    As we start off this morning consider these questions: Does this axiom (saying) cross over to the spiritual life, “You are what you eat”? This morning Pastor Jeff takes on what seemingly sounds like an overwhelming question, "What does God want us to look like?" By the power of the Holy Spirit, Pastor Jeff proposes to us that He wants to reproduce Christ in us.
