(Part 2 of 2) The Law vs Faith in Jesus. This subject is a framework Pastor Tippin will use for todays discussion and break down of Galatians chapters 3 and 4. There are so many arguments, some even in the comments of our videos, about the nature of works versus grace. In this video Pastor Tippin will put those arguments to rest, at least on our end. For clarity, God’s word is very clear no work of man, no adherence to law, gains us salivation. Only through the grace of Christ do we have the opportunity to be saved. Only by believing on Jesus will we obtain this grace. No works will ever earn us this gift. we will never be worthy. However, once we are His, we will do His works. Jesus Himself declares this in John 14:23-24 “Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. He who does not love Me does not keep My words;” We have to keep His Word. Do what he commands us. So there is no works we can do to earn God’s grace. But once we have it, we will do Jesus’s will or we are not His. Pastor Tippin will speak on this issue but also read and break down other issues and concepts the Holy Spirit brings to our attention, through the hand of Paul, here in Galatians chapter 3 through 4.

We will be reading sections of Galatians in this episode. Please remember what we call Galatians is a singular letter written by the Holy Spirit through the hand of the apostle Paul, meant to be read in its entirety. While it is not viable to do a real in-depth study of the whole letter at once in this format, we encourage you read the whole letter to truly understand the full context of which this episode speaks.

And in ALL your biblical reading, ask yourself three questions about what your reading:
1. What is God revealing to me about Himself?
2. What is God revealing about His plan for my life?
3. Having answered questions 1 and 2, what am I going to do about it?

All of us have needed help, Godly leadership, and advice, at one time or another. If you need help in your walk with Christ, or need a better understanding of how to navigate your path in this sinful world, in a way pleasing to Christ, please contact us.

(Part 2 of 2) A point of contention in some circles is the importance of the Old Testament. Some say the Old Testament no longer applies to us so its unimportant to focus on it. Others say the Old Testament law is still to be followed. Both of those arguments are wrong. The fact is the Old Testament teaches us so much about who God is, what His plan for our lives is, proves it can not be ignored. In fact, so much of the New Testament is clearly written in such a way that without a working knowledge of the Old Testament, portions of the New Testament are beyond understanding. Such a portion will be covered here, as Pastor Tippin’s reads through and breaks down chapter 3 of the letter to the Galatians. The Holy Spirit though the hand of Paul, clarifies several references in the Old Testament, in this chapter. So come join us as Pastor Tippin not only illustrates the importance of the Old Testament, but also helps us see the freedom we have from Old Testament law, in Christ. He will also demonstrate some tools we can use in this day and age which can really help us gain better understanding into the truth of God’s word.

We will be reading sections of Galatians in this episode. Please remember what we call Galatians is a singular letter written by the Holy Spirit through the hand of the apostle Paul, meant to be read in its entirety.

(Part 2 of 2) Today, Pastor Tippin continues his breakdown of the first chapter of Galatians through chapter 2. He discusses exactly what the gospel is, what a genuine real life application of the gospel is, what it means for your daily life, and what the outcome of living for the gospel is. He also is going to help you see how to recognize those who live the gospel and those who just say they do. This understanding is fundamental to the understanding of Galatians. This episode builds upon our initial 2 part premier. Please check out those episodes where we read through the entire letter to the Galatians and begin the breakdown of chapter 1. Today’s episode picks up where those left off.

(Part 2 of 2) Today, Pastor Tippin begins a new series in the letter to the Galatians. What we call Galatians is actually a letter written by the Holy Spirit through the hand of Paul to the churches in Galatia. Now when someone writes you a letter, do you read the first paragraph and stop? Come back to the rest of it sometime down the road. I doubt it. Pretty much no one does this. Today we will read the whole letter then break down chapter 1 verses 1 through 10. It’s the only way to understand the context of what comes in the middle or end of the letter. We should treat the letters in the New Testament the same. In the case of the letter to the Galatians, the hand of Paul is writing to address specific issues within the church. The Galatians have been listening to people spreading a false message. In response, they have begun (or returned to) practices in order to obtain the salvation of Jesus in place of belief in Christ. Performing acts in their flesh instead of obeying Christ. So the Holy Spirit has to set the record straight. He says anyone who spreads a message other than the true gospel is accursed. Anyone. So yes that means me. It means you. It means everyone. So we had better know the true gospel, and be spread that message in actions and speech. What is the true gospel? If you don’t know it, you can’t live it, so you can’t spread it. Come join us as we begin a journey learning what the gospel is and how it applies to you.

(Part 2 of 2) Did you know there is more than one Jesus? In this world we have so many different versions of Jesus. Some people sin in the flesh and rationalize it as being ok by creating another Jesus and “their” Jesus is ok with it. Some want power and control so they create a Jesus that allows it. Some want wealth, so they create a Jesus who wants them to have a private jet. I wish I was exaggerating here. I am not. So much of what we see out there, giant congregations, beautiful buildings, Preachers in $2,000 suits, and yes private jets, are lies from the devil, through his agents. Lies designed, as the Bible describes in 2 Corinthians 11:14, to disguise Satan as an angel of light. And his messengers follow suit, disguising themselves as “ministers of righteousness” (2 Corinthians 11:15). These agents of darkness create a false “Jesus” to sell you on why sin is ok. To lead as many souls to the pit as possible. Let me tell you, sin is not ok. You know who says this? The real Jesus. The Jesus of God’s word. The only Way, Truth and the Light.
So the question many will ask is “how do I know this real Jesus from these false “Jesus”. The answer? Know God’s word. You see these false Jesus, these false teachers, fall apart when you compare what they say and do with God’s own word. But you have to know His word to realize this. That requires effort. To read your bible. To spend time in prayer. To make your relationship with the Creator of the Universe THE most important relationship you have.
Today Pastor Tippin reads through and breaks down 2 Corinthians chapters 11 through 13. In these passages, the Holy Spirt, through the hand of Paul, writes for us about these very issues of false teachers, false gospels, false Jesus(s). And His answer is the one I gave you above. If it is contrary to Gospel, IT IS FALSE (2 Corinthians 11:3-4). Come join us and ask yourself, which Jesus am I serving? The one true Son of God or a false Jesus created by agents of evil.

We will be reading sections of 2 Corinthians in this episode. Please remember what we call 2 Corinthians is a singular letter written by the Holy Spirit through the apostle Paul, meant to be read in its entirety. While it is not viable to do a real in-depth study of the whole letter at once in this format, we encourage you read the whole letter to truly understand the full context of which this episode speaks.
