The Bible and Our Culture

Don't mistake Contemporary Christianity with Biblical Christianity

Progressive Christianity might be popular with some but it contradicts the Bible; so is it really Christianity?
Biblical Christianity has never needed to be updated with society because it doesn't change.
Our belief about anything moral or spiritual must be based on a biblical worldview.

The importance of a Biblical Worldview today!

Without a commitment to the Bible a church will turn from its true purpose.
Without a commitment to the Bible America will turn from its true purpose.
A revival will be a revival of valuing the Bible both in the Church and in society.
We can't live up to the standards in the Bible in our own strength but we can't explain the standards away.

God's Marvelous Purpose for His Law.

Live in God’s Glorious Grace with victory over sin.
Understand God’s Grace and its relationship to His Law.
Loving God’s Law does make you at risk of being a Pharisee but actually repells Pharisaicalism in your heart.

Focus on what's Relational

Liberty Remnant Church is committed to be a "Relational" Church (but all true churches are).
Relationships are the currency by which most Kingdom transactions take place.  

Focus on the Simple

Keep It Simple Saints
Liberty Remnant Church is a simple local church, but in the way we define it, every local church should be. 
Every Christian should seek to be focus on the clear and simple values Jesus taught.

Personal struggles and God's faithfulness.

The Power of the Demonic

Demons have no power over a believer other than what we allow.
Don't sin.
Demons and Satan often shoot themselves in the foot; that is, their plans will backfire if we stand against them in faith and truth.
Time with the Lord alone and time with Lord collectively are important to your health.
Time with God is an epic fight but keep fighting!

The second baptism of the Holy Spirit

Apollos was an amazing minister even though he didn't know about this second baptism of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 2, 8, 9 and 19 explain a subsequent baptism of the Holy Spirit different than conversion.  
If you haven’t experienced the subsequent baptism of the Holy Spirit, please leave your heart open to it.
If you have experienced this subsequent baptism of the Holy Spirit, please receive from today’s Apollos-type believers.
This subsequent baptism is biblical, but it is not the central thrust of the New Testament.
Please be open to what the Holy Spirit may be doing.

Live an adventurous life for Jesus!

Provoke unbelievers to jealousy!  It will bring persecution.  Riots today are like riots in the book of Acts. 
Make unbelievers jealous of the life you have in Christ.
Why did Paul go to the Jews first?  He didn't have a racial bias.  He had companions of all sorts of different ethnic backgrounds.  He wanted to take advantage of the Jewish people's background and worldview.
Our civil duties are important, but not as important as converting people to Jesus.

Victory over discouragement

"Make Known the wisdom of God to principalities and powers."
Boast in the LORD!
Like a professional athlete, when you struggle, go back to the fundamentals.
Perspective is everything!
