Support Your Local Church

An Atmosphere of Truth, Part 2

Ephesians 5:19-21 We’ve come to the end of what’s turned out to be a three-month series on membership and involvement in the local church. I didn’t start out intending a three-month series; I started out intending a one-month series. But now you know me, okay? That’s the way I go. But we’re going to wrap up the series this morning. Next week…

An Atmosphere of Truth, Part 1

Ephesians 5:18 I don’t expect you to remember the question I asked a couple of weeks ago at the end of the sermon. That was ages ago, right? But just as a reminder, we finished a short little study of the one another commands in the New Testament as part of our larger series on local church membership and involvement which unexpectedly…

Life in the Local Church, Part 3

Selected Scriptures We’ve been in a study of the church and that’s extended beyond May, beyond June and into July.  We are coming to the end of that study very soon, but we’re taking the time that’s necessary to really learn what the Bible teaches about our involvement here in the local church.  Church is the fundamental institution that is vital to…

Life in the Local Church, Part 2

Selected Scriptures We want to continue going through what we started last week, looking at the “one anothers” of the New Testament. We’re taking a break from our series in the Gospel of Luke, our exposition of that wonderful Gospel, so that we can look at the “one anothers” of the New Testament. And by “one anothers,” we’re referring to those reciprocal…

Life in the Local Church, Part 1

Selected Scriptures We’re talking today about life in the local church. We’ve been in a series for some time talking about this, taking a break from our normal study of the Gospel of Luke. But last week we set a foundation for this Sunday and next by looking at Paul’s teaching on the doctrine of the church. We’ve briefly looked at two…

Unity Through Diversity

1 Corinthians 12:1-27 Well, we’ve been going through this series on membership and involvement in the local church, and we’ve extended the series just a bit because we want to make sure that we get a good grasp of what God is saying to us through his Word on this very important and extremely practical subject. Just by way of review, I…

The Discipline of the Local Church

Selected Scriptures This morning you can open your Bibles to Matthew 18. Can open your Bibles there. You know we ended the time last time there in Matthew 18. We looked at Matthew 16 and Matthew 18, talking about Jesus’ uses of the word church. Two times, two specific times, he addressed the issue of the church, and, recognized and acknowledged both…

Recovering the Priority of the Local Church

Selected Scriptures We’re continuing our series that we’re calling “Support Your Local Church.”  I’ve been encouraged by the elders to extend this series a bit, so I have done that.  I’m going to expand it just somewhat.  We’re going to keep going on the series.  I was going to cut it off in May, but we’re going to go into the month…

Communion: The Fellowship of the Church

Selected Scriptures We’re going through a little series that we’re calling Support Your Local Church. Support Your Local Church. Usually in the pulpit here, we go verse by verse through a passage of Scripture, but we’re breaking from our normal regular study of the Gospel of Luke to address a vital topic, the topic of local church membership, local church involvement. This…

Baptism: The Gateway to the Church

Selected ScripturesAll right, we have started into a series on involvement in the local church. We set a foundation last week in 1 Timothy 3:14-16 by seeing how significant the local church is in God’s eyes, churches, the pillar and ground of the truth. That’s the language that’s used there in 1 Timothy 3. As we said, local churches are like temples.…
