How older women show their maturity Paul instructed Titus to teach sound, healthy doctrine. This healthy teaching strengthens the family which contrasts with false doctrine that subverts whole households. (Titus 1:11). Part of this wholesome teaching was about the importance of older women and their role in the Lord's church, they're good they could accomplish by being actively involved in the lord's work.

Being A Disciple What does it mean to follow Christ and be his disciple? What is the price of discipleship? We must be willing to take up our cross and follow him. But what does that life look like?

The Woman At The Well 1. Alan Webster once wrote a tract on the account of the woman at the well as it relates to evangelism, and I want to take this morning and this evening and take a look at this text with you. 2. We are concentrating on having a greater outward focus, and who better to show us how than Jesus, himself. 3. Jesus illustrates numerous principles in his encounter with the woman at the well that will aid us in talking to our neighbors about Jesus. 4. Consider and implement these points.

A Worthy Life Philippians 1:27, “Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel” (NKJV). What is implied in Paul's exhortation “only let your manner of life be worthy [axios] Of the gospel of Christ? In English versions of the New Testament, the Greek word axios is usually translated “worthy”. But its flavour is expressed elsewhere when it is translated “in keeping with” (Matthew 3:8, Acts 26:20). Like many other words, there is a picture lying behind the origin of the Greek word axios. It means “properly, bringing up the other beam of the scales, bringing into equilibrium, and therefore equivalent. The basic idea is that a life that is worthy of the gospel of Christ expresses in the form of a lifestyle what the gospel teaches in the form of a message. Such a life takes on a character that reflects the character of the lord Jesus Christ.			$Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\word.png$ $Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\pps.gif$ $Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\youtube.gif$ Christian Living Bobby Stafford
Christmas and the Birth of Christ Regardless of our personal view or feelings about Christmas as a celebration of the birth of Christ, all of us should consider Paul's teaching about being considerate and tolerant of each other in matters in which God allows freedom. Romans 14:5-6, “One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind. 6 He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.” (NKJV)			$Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\word.png$ $Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\pps.gif$ Christmas David Hersey
Changing Our Wardrobe Most of us are concerned about how we look. Our appearance is important to us. We want our clothes to match, to be coordinated. However, there is something far more important to God. He’s concerned about how we adorn the doctrine of God, our Savior. (Titus 2:10) “not pilfering; but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.” NKJV Text: Colossians 3:12-14			$Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\youtube.gif$ $Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\pps.gif$ $Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\word.png$ Christian Living Bobby Stafford

New Testament Law There is much disagreement on the Law among those claiming Christ as savior. The chief dissention is between the side that hold to the paradigm that God must be obeyed for salvation and the side which says God does not need to be obeyed, in part, because it is claimed the New Testament does not contain law. This belief is a result of the doctrine of Salvation By Faith Alone. Adherents of this doctrine must dispose of the necessity of doing anything other than the mental acknowledgement of Jesus Christ as the Son of God. Law contains restrictions, requirements and judgement and these three imply action and accountability. If one is truly saved on the merits of simply believing in Jesus Christ, the New Testament therefore cannot contain law, because if it did, Christians would have restrictions on bad moral behavior, commands to obey and accountability for their actions. Belief plus restrictions, obedience and accountability precludes the possibility of salvation being available by belief alone.			$Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\word.png$ $Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\pps.gif$ Law David Hersey
The Assembling of the Saints The early church/ekklesia regularly assembled regularly. The purpose of this article is to examine whether there is sufficient evidence within God’s word to draw the conclusion that Christians/Believers regularly assembled in the early church for the purpose of worshiping God. This study from God’s Word is in response to those who seek to deny the reality of assembled Christians for the purpose of worship toward God in the early church. To begin, we will examine the original Greek word translated as church in the New Testament. An accurate understanding of this word in the original language is useful in a study of Christian assemblies. The Greek word for church in most cases is Ekklesia			$Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\word.png$ $Description: Description: C:\Users\david\Documents\My Web Sites\Church\images\pps.gif$ Christian Living Church David Hersey
