2012-10-14-1030 Pastor Loran Livingston is the speaker this
morning October 14th 2012 in the 10:30 service.
Scripture: John 14:21-25; Luke 22:31-33; Psalm 139:23-24
Topic: Bondage
Notes:
- Why do we think we’re ready to do great things for God? Peter
thought so because he had been exposed to Jesus and what
He did, but he did not understand Jesus’ mission
- An unteachable spirit always resists what the Spirit teaches
- There are only God’s ways and wicked ways; we don’t know who we
are
- I need a deeper walk, an unmistakable encounter
- There is a resistance in all of us; we have not yet arrived
- The marks of an unteachable spirit:
1) when I say “unteachable spirit” you look at
somebody else
2) you always have an excuse for your failures (if it
failed, God was not in it)
3) you’re always aggravated with God
4) I’ve lived right, paid my dues... where is He?
When you let go and let God, things change
... if they haven’t changed then
you haven’t let go
5) won’t take advice... one bad decision after
another
- You can love the Lord’s work and His people and still have an
unteachable spirit
- When you come through this, you can help somebody else
- When there is conflict in a marriage, somebody is unteachable
