Restores

May 26, 2024 • Wes Morris

The Bible tells us that those who stray from the truth can be restored by the Lord to the path of righteousness. People are restored through discipline as God chastises the flesh in order to bring correction to the spirit. People are restored through prayer when, along with their leaders, appeal to God for healing in the Name of the Lord. People are restored through confession and repentance as they confess their sin before God and man and receive forgiveness. Do you know Jesus as Savior and redeemer? Are you walking in obedience to His Word and at peace with His people?

Yes & No

May 19, 2024 • Wes Morris

God’s people are to be people of truth. Jesus is described as being the way and the truth, and Christ followers are to be accurate ambassadors for Him. A disciple’s yes and no are to be completely trusted by those who hear it. When a Christian makes a vow to God, they are to be careful to perform whatever they speak. Have you said “yes” to the invitation to believe in Jesus for salvation? How true is your yes and no? (edited)

Bridled

The sure fire evidence of whether someone’s religion is pure or not is in what they say. The Bible says that if our tongue is not bridled, our religion is worthless. The true Christ follower’s mouth is bridled by the Holy Spirit. Someone indwelled with the Holy Spirit speaks with wisdom and not foolishness, righteousness and not wickedness. Isaiah confessed that he was a man of unclean lips and the Lord purified him of his iniquity. Do you need to be cleansed of unclean lips and heart so that the religion you assert is truly pure?

No Partiality

May 5, 2024 • Wes Morris

God does not show any regard for one person over another when bestowing His grace. The Bible commands that disciples of Jesus also show no partiality or favoritism. Ambassadors of Christ are to demonstrate impartiality in their assembly, love and faith. Have you come to God and received His offer of salvation? Do you demonstrate the same to all people regardless of wealth, status or sin background?
