Comments Off on Passover: The Judeo Christian Perspective, Sermons and Media, Videos, by COG Webcast.
Christians who come to believe that they need to celebrate the spring festival season often have questions about the meaning behind these Holy Days and the observance of the Christian Passover. Jeff illuminates the biblical instructions and highlights the testimony of Malachi, John, and Paul to give us greater insight into the meaning of this Passover season.
When God invites us into his “Kindergarten” he does not demand our “qualifications,” rather he graciously accepts us as we are knowing we have much to learn. Yet once we are in His program of education He sets high standards – justice, mercy and faith. Jeff Patton explores the meaning of these words and the grace of God and how it all is intertwined with His teaching on how to live a godly life.

Passover 2012:
Let us celebrate the spring feast season with joy and awe for all of God’s great goodness in delivering us from slavery and giving us the blessing of a life of freedom to walk with Him in sincerity and truth.

Comments Off on Passover: Question and Answer, Reader's Theatre, by CGP.
A short reader’s theatre script to engage all participants (young and old) in a retelling of “Why this night is different from all other nights” It would be a great dinner activity for Passover (NTBMO) and highlights the key events that this Holy time memorializes. We have used it successfully with church groups or family gatherings.
Comments Off on Avoiding the Pitfalls, Beliefs, by CGP.
Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Mark 14:38
Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. Colossians 2:8
Walking the Judeo Christian path we become aware of many obstacles and potholes that we must navigate around. There are deep ditches on either side of this straight path to eternal life, and God cautions us about avoiding pitfalls that could waylay us and keep us from reaching our destination.
Comments Off on Christian Growth, Beliefs, by CGP.
Be joyful. Grow to maturity. Encourage each other. Live in harmony and peace. Then the God of love and peace will be with you.2 Corinthians 13:11
We will no longer be immature like children…Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. Ephesians 4:14-16
Scriptures use the analogy of human growth from child to adult to explain spiritual growth. As Christian’s we must grow into the spiritual likeness of our Father, and become spiritually mature in heart and mind. This is a process that takes a lifetime, but begins at baptism when our past life is buried and we begin life anew.
The reality of Christian growth is that it begins after we repent and reject the ways of this world in favour of God’s ways. Then, the gift of the Holy Spirit imparts spiritual life, in a similar way that physical conception imparts physical life. The spirit of God works with our human spirit and makes it possible for us to begin to grow towards the goal of spiritual rebirth as spirit beings in the Kingdom of God. But there are many lessons to be learned and much spiritual fruit to be borne before that glorious moment when we inherit the Kingdom. We hope some of these sermons will help you in your life’s walk towards spiritual maturity.
Comments Off on Prophecy and History, Beliefs, by CGP.
These are all warning markers—danger!—in our history books, written down so that we don’t repeat their mistakes. Our positions in the story are parallel—they at the beginning, we at the end—and we are just as capable of messing it up as they were. Don’t be so naive and self-confident. You’re not exempt. You could fall flat on your face as easily as anyone else. Forget about self-confidence; it’s useless. Cultivate God-confidence. Message 1 Corinthians 1o:11-12
The bible is historically accurate, not mere myth and legend, and much can be learned from the events and personalities of past ages. Bible history is also a forerunner of events that are yet to transpire – prophetic events – that the God who knows all things and made all things has preserved for our understanding. Judeo Christians value the lessons of history and the word of prophecy that gives us wisdom to live our lives today. Bible prophecy and history also provide hope for the future, for us, for our children and for all people.
