Key Text: Nehemiah 2
Description: God works on established principles. These principles work for people, projects, businesses, families and churches. The Book of Nehemiah shows God’s man using God’s ways to do God’s project. Much can be learned from this short Old Testament book.

Series: 1 John
Key Text: 1 John 2:22-23
Description: Christians are called to be discerning. We are called to be able to discern truth from error and to take every thought captive to the Word of God. In our passage this morning, John gives the Christian the foremost test concerning all matters of life and doctrine. It is a test that can be seen as a question; a question that becomes for the Christian a dividing line. Christians have died answering this question for it is indeed, the only question that matters!

Preacher: Monty Simao, elder
Series: 1 John
Key Text: 1 John 2:18-21
Description: Sometimes familiar words lose their meaning. The word fellowship is like that. We use the word fellowship as an adjective to describe a church event. For instance, a potluck becomes a “fellowship meal” and just hanging out with other believers becomes “fellowshipping”. The term fellowship though is significant in meaning and must be understood within the context of Christ’s fellowship with His people. As Christ is in fellowship with His people, His people are in fellowship with each other. The teaching of and about Christ become the truth upon which our fellowship is based.
In our message today, we see that there are some who have broken fellowship, they have dis-fellowshipped themselves over the truth. John tells the church that those who have left — left because they never were truly in fellowship in the first place.

Key Text: Matthew 9:35-38
Description: Jesus referred to Himself as the Lord of the harvest. It’s the entire reason that He came to earth. Then He speaks to Christian saying, “As My Father hath sent me, so send I you.” …And it is that truth needs to be planted in the heart and mind of every ‘born again’ believer.

Preacher: Monty Simao, elder
Series: 1 John
Key Text: 1 John 2:12-14
Description: John pauses in the giving of tests of salvation to draw the reader’s attention back to the objective foundation and ground of their justification. He addresses the church in all stages of maturity, from the new believer to the spiritually mature. This passage serves as a parenthetical comment, as it were, so that our self-reflection doesn’t leave us looking inside of us for answers but outside of ourselves to Christ.

Key Text: John 3:1-16
Description: In too many ways the Pharisees were like present day professing Christians — which is to say, like you and me. We seek after God but not always with the right motive or attitude. Both we and they seem to delight in lifting ourselves by seeking to lower others. That can only be seen as pride and certainly isn’t pleasing to the Lord.

Key Text: Romans 12:1-8
Description: To many Christians, the will of God is a mystery. That attitude is a result of not knowing the Bible because God has given us very clear directives as to His will for our lives.

Preacher: Monty Simao, elder
Series: 1 John
Key Text: 1 John 2:7-11
Description: If there were one mark of a Christian that would be preeminent above all others, it would be a genuine love; a love for God and also a love for others. That’s because love for God and love for our neighbor is the summation of God’s law and as the Holy Spirit works in the life and heart of the believer obedience to God’s law will become manifest in love, not only towards God but as John points out here, towards our brethren.

Series: 1 John
Key Text: 1 John 2:3-6
Description: The seventeenth century puritan, Thomas Brooks, wrote that “assurance is a pearl that most want but a crown that few wear.” A Christian with assurance of faith knows that he belongs to Christ, that his sins are forgiven, that God loves him, and that he will enjoy everlasting life. While many assume that it is presumptuous to desire assurance of salvation, Scripture teaches otherwise. In our text this morning the Apostle John provides us the first of three tests so that the Christian may examine himself and rest, assured!

Series: 1 John
Key Text: 1 John 1:10 – 2:2
Description: Since God promises to forgive us when we confess our sins and since we will never be perfect in this life, why worry about sin? Why strive to be holy? What’s the point? Those were the questions that John was dealing with in the first century church and those same questions remain in the church today. Find out how a correct view of sin actually leads, and spurs, us to a godly life.

Preacher: Monty Simao, elder
Series: 1 John
Key Text: 1 John 1:8-9
Description: In this morning’s passage, John responds to the second of three errors found in this section. All of these errors have to do with a false view of sin. The first error essentially taught that sin doesn’t matter, whereas the second error teaches that sin doesn’t exist. The seriousness of these errors is that it undermines the atonement and robs the Gospel of it’s Good News.
