Verses: Genesis 1:31; Psalm 23:6; Galatians 5:19-23; Acts 2:42-47; Ephesians 4:17-24

Main Idea: We have a cultural problem in the church that results in patterns of abuse, repeated again and again in different locations, traditions and church contexts. Culture change is difficult and requires intentionality. We need to learn how to keep these devastating events from repeating themselves in other churches and ministries. What is in the “soil” determines the health of the fruit; soil contaminated by the flesh produces poisonous fruit, while soil renewed by the Spirit produces Spirit-shaped people (Galatians 5:19–23).

Text: Ephesians 4:25–32; Colossians 3:10; Exodus 34:5-6; Psalm 103:8; Romans 12:14-15; Matthew 9:35-36; Luke 10:33-34

Topic(s): Anger, Conflict, Restoration, Empathy

Big Idea of the Message: Anger is normal; what we do with it can be restorative or it can be destructive.

Application Point: When confronting or being confronted, the believer needs to accept and acknowledge truth, while putting off the auto-response to win, be defensive, use force, or get back at someone. In our anger, we must not sin.

Recently, President Trump of the United States of America, publicly expressed uncertainty about whether he will go to heaven, reflecting a misunderstanding common to many: that salvation is based partly on one’s good works or life achievements rather than wholly on grace through faith.

we wanted to share an episode that clarified what it means to be Saved in Christ. Salvation (or soteriology) according to the Bible is the doctrine of how God rescues and redeems sinners through Jesus Christ. It centers on God’s grace in forgiving sins, justifying believers by faith, and granting eternal life.
