the quentisessential

what does quentisessential mean?it means the main thing.what is the main thing?what is the important thing of the church...the heart of the church?read 1 crointhians chapter 13,it tells us that without love you are nothing.theres 3 things...faith,hope,love,but the greates of these is love.the bible tells us that God is love.Jesus is love!Jesus is the main thing of the church.he is the important thing of the church,some churches think its prayer.some think is the ofering,but imagine this,theres a band playing christian music but there is no vocals in it...thats not christian music unless Jesus is in it.without Jesus,u are just hearing clashing symbols.what makes christian music?its the Jesus part.i know alot of christian band that sing christian music but they dont even say Jesus in there music.thats the same with the church...some people only preach morality,but i believe we have to preach Jesus...he is the essential part of the church.not the music.not the prayer.not even the church building....but its jesus.the biggining and the end.Jesus is the quentisessential thing of the church.we need him.without him,we are just people.people believing but do not have Jesus...yes lord.

Keep shooting.

My topic today is...excuses.lets get something straight,whats an excuse?well,first,let me tell you what "sin"means first:

• Sin-it comes from a Hebrew word that's means to miss the mark.
• Excuse-an excuse means to tell WHY you missed the mark.

Look at Genesis chapter 3-your probably  familiar with this true story-when Eve was tempted in the garden-Satan did tempt Eve and Adam-that's when the world of excuses came about.when Adam and Eve realized that they were naked,God said-"why have you ate from the fruit i told you not to,"and Adam blamed it on God saying,"it's this woman you gave me.this woman convinced me to eat from the fruit-this woman made me do it-the one YOU gave ME.then Eve explained that the serpent convince her to do it-wow-that was the beginning of excuses.

Did you know that we are armed-lets look back to the definition of sin:it comes from a Hebrew word which means to miss the mark-we are equipped with a bow & arrow-if you like gulf,which I don't,you can say that you are equipped with a club and a ball.lets read on to 2 KINGS 13:15-18, here, Elisha commanded to take bow and arrows and smite the ground he only did it once and stoped...."and the man of God was wroth with him,and said,thou shoulderst have smitten 5 or six times....(2 kings 19)-Joash should've hit the ground at least 5 times...but he only hit once...that's us...people keep on missing the mark then stop---NO!we have to pick up our bow and arrow and keep,keep,keep,keep,keep,keep,keep,\shooooooting until you HIT THE M.A.R.K!!!!amen.don't just hit once 3 times then stop-keep shooting 'till you hit the mark.GOD bless.

Justice

are you you a true worshiper?,read this verse:

"religion that our God our Father accepts as pure and faultiness is this:to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."-james 1.27(NIV)

true worship is also looking after widows and orphans-when the earthquak hit Haiti,people were careless....but,eventhough it MIGHT'VE been a punishment from God,little children have starved to death and have sufferd-I do not believe THAT was a punishment from God-I believe God wants us to help people around the world-from Africa to russia-from the philipenes to Haiti-helping them...thats part of true worship.caring.Jesus cares for the widows and orphens.....why shouldn't WE.

who's the role model?

who's your role model?your dad...mom....is it someone famous?a preacher?...like Billy Graham?well believe it or not,there is one role model that we should follow.that role model is Jesus Christ.Jesus didn't just come to earth to shed hie precious blood on the cross,he also came to set an example...Jesus said,"follow me"allot in the New Testament.Other popular role models sometime goes behind your back and does something terrible like smoking pot,but the Lord Jesus Christ,lived a perfect life-Jesus never smoked...he never killed...the bible never said anything about Jesus cursing...Jesus taught us to love one another...he forgave people that are not even worth being forgiven...that's an example we should follow...i don't know who your role model is,but mine is Jesus the Christ.Allot of people follow famous people,but they don't know who the true role model is...the one who shed his blood on Calvary...Jesus Christ.

2 types of idoltery...satan sneaks up on you when you dont even realize it.

think of idolatry...what do you think of?people worshiping other gods?bowing to a gold statue?well,believe it or not,that's not what all idolatry is like...theres more to the story....

• the first type of idolatry is what i just mentioned....worshiping other gods...OR...people.this is where Satan comes in....many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many,many(i don't know when to stop)many,many,many,many,Christians worship idols...i don't wanna pock fun at churches and denominations so I'm not going to tell you which denomination groups do this,but most Christians pray to saints.others pray to marry,mother of Jesus....but i must warn you,they are wrong.a prayer is not just a thing that you get on your knees and pray,but it is also a type of worship. many Christians pray to saints,but that's also worshiping that saint.God made it clear like a million times in the bible that you should worship the Lord God Almighty alone.look at revelation 22:8-9; ---"....i fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.9)then saith he unto me,see thou do it not :for i am thy fellow servent,and of thy bretheren the prophets,and of them which keep sayings of this book:WORSHIP GOD."you see,john fell at the feet of an angel...and the angel rebuked him and commanded to worship God!!!!!!!!! I have known allot of people that pray to angels...they don't know that thy are not worshiping God but an angel...which is only a messenger of God.

• the second type is like the most common type of idolatry...and it's right under your very nose.have you ever got a new ipod touch,your always on facebok,obsessed with tweeting,and you love those things so much that you would trade all you have to get the latest cell phone(that's why i got mine taken away)well,believe it or not,that is idolatry.when you get consumed in this world,and your always on face book(visit my face book,by the way)and you L-O-V-E it so much,that's idolatry....it's when you like something so much...that all of the sudden,you have replaced Jesus with a new cell phone....trust me,it's not worth it.I was at school the other day 'till I over heard a normal conversation...one girl was talking about clothes-then one of her friends asked,"how come all you care about is clothes"...her response was the most immature question I would ever hear..."what el's am i suppose to care about?"---WOW.'what els am i suppose to care about'-you probably know the answer to that-'Jesus christ',duhhhhh!that bloke,Jesus gave all he had...and she replaced him,God...Christ...Gods only son...for cloths...it seems like she chose Las Vegas rather then heaven...how about you?las Vegas or heaven?

spiritual warefare-how,when,where,& why

spiriual warefare-believe it or not,it goes around every day-look around-what do you see.,..you might say just a plane old magazine laying around or a coke bottle-but its there-this spiritual warefare is in our minds.satan is trying to tempt us...satan tryed to tempt jesus in the desert...this proves that saten will try to tempt us....but we have to fight saten:

1. why?-Because satan is the oppostie of christ...master deciever...king of lies...what God thinks is good,satan thinks its bad.the bible says that god made everything good...satan will try to make those good things to bad things.
2. where?-this could happen any where...at church,school,or at your own home.
3. when?-this could happen any time...it could even happen now.
4. how?-satan will try to decieve you by advertising something thats BAD to make "look" GOOD...he will try to make something bad pleasing to the eyes...like what he did to eve at the garden of eden.

we have to stop him and help others:

1. why?-because if not,you and others are going to hell...satan is trying to drag people to hell with him.
2. where?we should fight him any where...on the street,school,...just preach the gospel any where!
3. when?we should fight saten NOW.lets not wait,because jesus is coming back and when he does,it will be too late.
4. how?it doesn't matter how-facebook,myspace,blogger...as long as your preaching the word,you have done your job.

satan will bring others to hell with him ,like i said several times,we have to stick United in spirit...and in christ...to bring down saten.this starts...NOW.

saten in our churches

verse: revelation 2:1-29 & 3:1-22

these are 7 churches the bible describes that saten has messed up..you might think that it was then..but its also now and we dont even know it.

the first church the bible says saten messed up was in ephesus-"...because thou hast left thy first love"-rev 2:4.in the church of ephesus,saten caused them to fall away from christ..they left there first love..which was jesus.saten closed there eyes to get consumed by this world...and began to love this world...and not jesus,the creator of this world.the second church was in smyrna,saten caused them to commite blasphemy.in pergamos,they had people who still worship baal.in thyatira,there was a women who was a whore and the churh sufferd her...some even commited adultery with her.god was angry and punished her. sardis fell away from christ as well as philadelphia and laodicea.these all prove that saten is working in our churches.this is called a spiritual warefare...saten is trying to bring the church down but we have to fight him!put your full armor of god.have your helmet,your breast plate,your belt,your sword and fight saten.he is trying to decieve our churches...dont let him do what he did to the church of ephesus.he is mixing some other doctrine with jesus's doctrine to decieve you!dont let him do that.some churchs,even now,are falling away from christ.some churches are only there to please other people...most churches only think about there own pockets...they just want the church offering...most of the times they even try to decieve you,making you think that smoking is good and raping is not bad...thats how saten messes with our churches...choose a church that truely worships god...who truly fears christ.let the spirit choose the church.even though we have won this spiritual warefare saten still attempts to fight.we have already won.but still...stand up against saten:)
