Responsible Stewardship

8/30/2015

 
   Just what is a steward?  Two Greek words are translated “steward” numerous times in New Testament scripture.  The first word is “Oikonomos.”  Broken down, “Oidos” refers to “a house.”  “Nemo” is an “arranger.”  Put together, you have the idea of a house arranger.  The second Greek word is “Epitropos.”  It means “commission” and is rendered “steward” (NKJV) or “tutor” (KJV) in Gal. 4:2 and “steward” in Matt. 20:8.

Stewardship

8/23/2015

 
   Preachers have been preaching on stewardship for decades and decades.  I’m not sure that the term clicks very well with most people.  Its meaning may be a bit murky in their minds.  Yet, it is an excellent term that is rich in meaning and relevance for people of every generation.  The principle behind it is vital to the well being of every single person in this world.

How Can I Come Back To The Lord?

8/16/2015

 
   The apostle Paul wrote, “This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners…” (1 Tim. 1:15).  This is great news, considering the fact that all of us “have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Rom. 3:23).  Since “the wages of sin is death” (Rom. 6:23), we desperately need a Savior.  That’s where God stepped in by sending His Son as our Savior and Lord.  Jesus died on the cross to pay the price for the guilt of our sins, making the way for us to be able to be forgiven and saved through Him (Heb. 7:27; 9:28).  He personally issued an invitation to all mankind to come to Him for that salvation (Matt. 11:28-29).

How Can I Come To The Lord?

8/9/2015

 
   Jesus stated that He came into this world “to seek and to save that which was lost” (Lk. 19:10).  The apostle Paul reiterated that very truth: “This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners…” (1 Tim. 1:15).  In regard to this purpose for His coming, our Lord extended the great invitation: “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls” (Matt. 11:28-29).  The natural question is, “How can I come to the Lord?”

What Does Love Demand?

8/2/2015

 
   Our society seems to place a great deal of emphasis on love.  Some of it is good, some not so good.  Some of it is more surface level, feel good rhetoric than substantive action.  Many people are quick to judge others as being unloving, or even hateful, who do not conform to their superficial standard of love.  Increasingly, such standards have become pretty open ended.  Love should be long suffering, but even Godly love is not without limits.  When it comes to our salvation, and when it comes to teaching the gospel to lost souls, just what does love demand?
