2012-06-10-1030 Pastor Loran Livingston is the speaker this morning June 10th 2012 in the 10:30 service
Scripture: Joshua 1:5-9; I John 3:14-24
Topic: Assurance
Notes:
- It is never God’s intent that you feel afraid or guilty
- Live with boldness, courage, optimism, joy
- Israel moving into the promised land was God telling us to move
into an abundant life
- Nothing is supposed to intimidate you as a believer; fear is
torment
- If you don’t believe God will never leave you, everything you do
will be in fear
- You will never be able to do enough if it’s up to you
- When you ask, God delivers; you can count on His faithfulness
- We’re not saved by works of any degree at any time but by grace,
the good news of the favor of God upon the undeserving
- This is about being a child of God, not a member of an
organization
- Because we love the brethren, we know we are saved
- God is greater than your heart. Believe in Jesus and love one
another
- Don’t let your heart, the church, an organization condemn
you|
- People are bitter with the church, don’t want formality... as
long as the gospel is preached, who cares?
- Church ought to be a place where you’re free, not obligated
- You don’t owe me anything; you only thing you owe the brethren is
to love them
- This is about you and your bible and your God
