Can You Put That into Plain English?

Date: Sun, Mar 25, 2018 Teacher: James Slone Series: God's Name

Passage: Exodus 34:6-7

I am going to try to comprehend the incomprehensible, explain the unexplainable, and fathom the unfathomable by attempting to define a pair of Hebrew words, hesed and emet, that the Lord uses to describe himself, words that defy a simple translation into English.

Passage: Exodus 34:6-7

In Exodus 34:6-7, which is quoted in the Old Testament itself more than any other verses, God describes himself.

What's Jesus-Thinking

Date: Sun, Feb 11, 2018 Teacher: James Slone

Passage: Philippians 2:3-5 & Philippians 2:12-15

Phillippians 2:5-11 is such a beautiful and powerful poem about the nature, disposition, obedience, and glory of Jesus Christ that we often fail to pay attention to the verses that are around it, which make and apply the point of the passage. That glorious hymn illustrates the kind of mindset we are to have as followers of Jesus Christ.

Evil is real and he comes to steal, kill, and destroy; and he would like no better than to mess up this church and what we think is lack of education or what we think is maybe some addiction can really just be demonic oppression and we pray in the name of Jesus. The power that's in the name of Jesus. Our help is in the power that's in His name.
