The Power of Your Words

To be like Christ, we should talk like Jesus. Every word that He spoke was EXACTLY what God wanted Him to say. How about your words? Do they always honor God? Do you realize the power of the words that you say? In this message entitled The Power of Your Words, we focus on Colossians 4:6 and learn some powerful truths about our words. The Bible has lots to say about words and about language, from Adam & Eve to the Tower of Babel to the Day of Pentecost in Acts 2 to Revelation. There is much to learn. Jesus is the Word who became flesh. James speaks about the challenge of controlling our tongue. Wow! There's a lot to say... Listen here: http://www.lpbaptist.org/ThePowerOfYourWords.mp3

What Are You Looking For?

What if God asked you, "What Are You Looking For?" what would you say to Him? When a couple of guys began following Jesus, He turns around and asked them this very question. Their response is surprising, but it is exactly the right answer. In John 1:35-51, we learn what they say, what they do next, and what it teaches us about following Christ.

Run!

In Hebrews 12:1-3, the Bible describes in great ways the opportuntity that each of us has to run the race that God has set before us. Those who have gone before us have shown us the way.

Let Us Go To Him, Outside The Camp

Jesus calls us to a life of radical commitment to Him. This type of faith is outside the "camp" of even mainstream so-called Christianity. What does obedience to Christ really look like?
