Scripture- Matthew 5:13
Message- You are the Salt of the Earth
Jesus was a Master of using common things in life to illustrate important biblical lessons. He uses things like salt to share an important Spiritual message with his hearers(Mark 9:50, Luke 14:34-35).  In the text, he uses Salt to show how beneficial Christians are in the world and how useless they become to Christ, to the church, to others if they lose their ability to pe*****te and influence people to receive Jesus Christ as their Savior. Christians must live lives that bring glory to God. The statement You are the Salt of the Earth was made by Jesus as a part of the noted Sermon on the Mount(Matthew 5 and 7). Before the statement was made, people who listened to him already had met the qualifications for being the salt of the Earth. Salvation is the primary requirement for being salt of the Earth.
He just doesn’t want us to have the title. He wants us to show that we are truly salt of the Earth on a daily basis. In order to be the salt of the Earth, we must possess the qualifications listed in Matthew 5::3-12. Being the salt of the Earth, keeps Christians from spiritual decay, Satan, and sin. Christians as salt of the Earth purifies rotting hearts, rancid mouths, and ungodly things. Christians as salt of the Earth learn how. to chose love, and wait on God. Christians can become worthless if they confirm to the world. To prevent being worthless, Christians must yield to the Holy Ghost, pray, Study the Word of God, and be like Jesus! You are the Salt of the Earth!

Gust Minister- Rev. Jabryon Parker
Scripture- 2 Corinthians 4:7
Message- Still Here by the Grace of God
First today, we have gathered more than for an anniversary. We’ve gathered to testify. 34 years is not just a number on a calendar, 34 years is a testimony. God has been faithful to Pastor Brown! In the text, Paul writes to the Corinthian church where the relationship was very complicated. They questioned his authority, being an apostle, and his suffering. They wondered why Paul as God’s servant, life was so difficult. Sometimes we think if we are doing God‘s will, we won’t have any problems. Paul tells us that we can do God’s will and still have trouble. After 34 years, Pastor Brown doesn’t have to pretend that everything was perfect. There has been some good days and difficult days. His testimony is Grace kept me. Everybody sees the pulpit, but not the pressure behind the pulpit. Sometimes trouble comes from everywhere. Trouble came, but couldn’t destroy. Pastor Brown can say, If it had not been for the Lord on my side where would I be. God can change your situation without destroying your foundation.
We are like clay pots that have something valuable on the inside of us. God put heavenly treasures in earthly vessels. God‘s strength made Pastor Brown strong. He gives us strength in the time of need. Thank God for his grace, goodness, and mercy. There are moments we don’t understand, but we must trust God. Faith is trusting God when you don’t have the answers or see a way. Job, David, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego had faith.  Pastor Brown, keep on preaching, praying, serving God and this community because Only what you do for Christ will last. Continue to tell Jesus’s story! Never forget that Jesus died on the cross, was buried, rose, and ascended up to heaven!

Scripture- 2 Corinthians 12:7-10
Message- How to Manage Pain
Life itself can be painful. It is filled with experiences that caused us to feel hurt and pain on the inside within our hearts. We feel physical, emotional(grief,sorrow,),and spiritually(trials, sin)pain. Feeling pain is sometimes a natural aspect of our lives. From the cradle to the cemetery, we spend much of our time trying to avoid pain. Commercials and infomercials give advice on how to manage pain temporary. People try to escape pain by using drugs or alcohol. How do you manage pain? The text gives God‘s way of managing pain.
Paul experienced great pain, when he was converted. He was given a thorn in the flesh by God to keep him humble. The thorn was part of God’s plan. Satan tactics are quite the opposite. Satan uses pain to either hurt us or hinder God’s work. Paul was called to preach and plant churches. Satan uses some of the same methods(sickness, loneliness, grief, depression), today to stop us from witnessing. Paul prayed to God for the thorn to be removed. God said, “My grace is sufficient.” God’s grace was enough for Paul to manage the pain. When we are weak, He’s strong. Jesus depended on God‘s grace when he hung on the cross. was buried, rose from the dead and ascended to Heaven. Always depend on the grace of God!

Philippians 1:6
Message- “Assurance that the Work of Salvation Shall be Finished”
How many things that you can think of that was started by people and have been left unfinished or incomplete? After given that some thought, you can conclude that houses, crafts, paintings, projects, repairs, etc are unfinished because of a lack of time or ability, finances, or support. God never leaves work unfinished. He always finishes his work. That is the point that Paul was trying to make to the Philippians and a text. Paul wanted them to be assured that God would finish the good work of salvation which he have a begun in them.
Believers in Christ have positive or absolute confidence that God will complete the work of Salvation He has started because of the promise made by him, Jesus Christ, and the present of the Holy Spirit dwelling in them(John 14:17, Romans 8:9, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Believers are saved presently and will be saved in the future because of the Holy Spirit living in the inside of them. The work begun by God in Believers is a good work, but unfinished as long as the Believer lives on earth.
 Salvation is a good work that radically changes the life of the Believer. All Believers have made some changes when they met Christ. Change is progressively. Believers grow in righteousness, impurity, holiness, love, joy, peace, and faith(2 Corinthians 5:7, Romans 10:9-10, Romans 8:29, 2 Corinthians 3:18). God will complete the work of Salvation in Believers when Jesus returns through the Rapture or physical death. Always remember what Jesus did on Calvary to give Believers eternal life!

Scripture- John 19:19-22
Message- The Title Placed on the Cross
John the Son of Zebedee and Salome and the brother of James the Apostle wrote this book in 80AD. John stood around the cross when Jesus was crucified(John 19:26-27). He was with Peter at the tomb on resurrection morning and found it empty(John 20:1-8). John wrote the book to present Jesus as Savior of the world and the Son of God so that men might believe in him and become saved.
Pontus Pilate, Roman Governor of Judea wrote the title on the cross. Pontius Pilate examine Jesus to see whether Jesus was guilty or not with respect to charges brought against him by the Jewish leaders. Pontius Pilate repeatedly tried to dismiss the charges brought against Jesus(John 1:8). Pontius Pilate tried unsuccessfully to free Jesus(John 19:12). He had no interest in Jesus as Savior or King.
He didn’t believe Jesus is King, but he wrote Jesus of Nazareth, I am King of the Jews on the placard. A placard usually had the name of the person being executed and crime committed. The placard was nailed to the top of the cross(Matthew 27:27, Mark 15:26, Luke 23:38). Jesus was being crucified because he was the King of the Jews.
Pontius Pilate used the superscription(Jesus of Nazareth, Iam King of the Jews)to get back at the Jews. Satan wanted to destroy Jesus’s character. He also wants to destroy the true believers’ character. God caused Pontius Pilate to write the title to show that Jesus was worthy of the truth. Jesus died, was buried, and rose with all power in his hands! Jesus is really the King of heaven and Earth!

Scripture- 1 Thessalonians 5:17-20
Message- Things Which Make and Keep Believers Strong
Part of Satan‘s plan is to build his kingdom, try to disrupt and destroy the kingdom of God on earth and to weaken believers in Christ spiritually. He assaults Believers with trials, heartaches, reoccurring sorrows, and trouble. He tries to weaken Believers in their ministry as witnesses for the Lord, belief in Jesus Christ, testimonies about goodness, grace, and mercy of the Lord.
Rewards, Service, faithfulness, blessings, and the salvation of others are at state. Therefore, it is important for Believers to be spiritually strong in the Lord(Joshua 1:6a, Eph. 6:10). God wants Believers strong so that glory and honor belong to Jesus Christ. Strong believers are a terror to Satan and an asset to the church and community.
Paul discloses some of the things with make and keep the Believers strong provided they are put into practice. Believers must pray without ceasing. Prayer is the ordain way for Believers to receive things needed from our God. God moves, acts, and responds to our prayer. Prayers give Believers the ability to handle confrontations with Satan, overcome trials, and to be steadfast and faithful. The Holy Ghost is at work in the Believer. The Holy Ghost brings Believers closer to God, and have them live lives in accordance with God. Believers are warn not to quench the Spirit because one can become weak. We need Spiritual strength to continue to walk in the Spirit. Do not take preaching and teaching of the Word of God lightly. Be in love with the Scriptures! Have a thirst for the Scriptures! Prayer, yielding, depending on the Holy Ghost and excepting prophesy will make and keep the believers strong!

Scripture-Hosea 3:1-3
Message- “The Heart of God”
Hosea is the 28th book in the Bible. It’s classified as a book of Minor Prophet because it contains less information. The book was written by Hosea, Son of Beeri(Hosea 1:1). Hosea’s name means Salvation. Hosea prophesied to the Northern 10 tribes of Israel during the reign of Jeroboam II and other kings between 785-725 BC. It was written before the Northern 10 tribes of Israel was taken into captivity by the Assyrians.
The book of Hosea was written to announce to the people of the Northern 10 tribe kingdom that God was going to chastise Israel for being unfaithful as his wife. In a spiritual sense, Israel was God’s wife. Israel sunk deeper and deeper into idolatry and sin. After punishment, Israel will be restored back to a place of blessing because God loved Israel. The text gives us a picture of God’s heart. God uses the story of Hosea and Gomer to show the wondrous love He has for those who have sinned, and are unlovable.
In the text, Hosea was the husband of Gomer and a father figure for her three children. God commanded Hosea to marry Gomer, even though she was a prostitute. Hosea redeemed Gomer from prostitution, just as God redeemed Israel from Egypt and other nations. God redeemed us from sin by sending his only begotten Son, Jesus to die on the cross. God has a heart of trust and faithfulness. He will keep his promises. He is faithful! In the name of Jesus, Amen!
