Outward Manifestation

July 28, 2019 • Pastor Tony Salerno

Outward Manifestation Matthew 5:20 Unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees you shall not enter the kingdom of Heaven The common people thought only the Scribes and Pharisees were holy and were going to heaven The beatitudes describe true righteousness and Christian attitudes and the inward condition of the born again believer 5:13 You are the salt of the earth but if the salt loses its flavor how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men Our witness/testimony is to give people a good taste of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ 5:14 You are the light of the world a city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket but on a lamp stand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven Like a lighthouse we are to help people see their way to Jesus

It Is Happening! Matthew 11:1-6 Repent so that we can be filled Respond to the move of Holy Spirit Reach the lost. We have one job.....winning souls. R #1- Repentance :Colossians 3:4-14 Sins of the heart : Jealousy, Envy, Bitterness, Hatred, Pride, Unforgiveness..... Sins of the heart can be sneaky and we need to be on guard to notice them and get them out. R #2- Respond :1 Samuel 3:4-10 God chose to speak to use Samuel for two reasons: 1- because Samuel was humble and ready 2- because Samuel was quick to respond to the Lord the second He moved. To receive from the Lord we need to be humble and ready at all times. R #3- Reach Acts 1:6-7 When there is a spirit of expectancy in the body of Christ- GOD MOVES

Your Position

July 21, 2019 • Pastor Tony Salerno

Matthew 5:1 With the common people on His heart Jesus taught the disciples. Religion is a system of rituals and good works through which men try to earn salvation and draw attention to themselves Religion focuses on the outside not the inside Religion destroys hope: ultimately we know we cannot make it upon our own work Religion glorifies man and not God When we glorify man we repel people When we glorify Jesus we attract people We are to be in the world but not of it The world has nothing to offer nothing that will satisfy If you are a Christian you will be noticed there will be opposition of some kind

Miracles Wanted

July 18, 2019 • Pastor Jeff Queen

Miracles Wanted Do you want to be Healed? God has a miracle, do you want it? Jesus asked the Question because there were things that this man was not willing to give up in order to receive his miracle Check your surroundings It’s hard to see or receive our miracle when we spend all of our time around people who don’t see Gods goodness and perfect will You may not be able to control your situation but you can control the people you call friends Fear and doubt, insecurities will give you the impression a miracle is not in store for you. We cant expect the Lord to move in our lives if we are full of excuses We need to exercise our faith All miracles come in the right time (Gods Time)
