The sermon today was 

"That Which Makes Christians Christians" by Dr H. L. Hendrix

 Colossians 1:1-12 (NASB)    Thankfulness for Spiritual Attainments

     Faith Hope and Love 

    We have faith in Christ Jesus, Hope laid up for us in heaven, And Love for one another. It most important that we love one another as Jesus loved us.

¹  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
²  To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.
³  We give thanks to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
⁴  since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and the love which you have for all the saints;
⁵  because of the hope laid up for you in heaven, of which you previously heard in the word of truth, the gospel
⁶  which has come to you, just as in all the world also it is constantly bearing fruit and increasing, even as it has been doing in you also since the day you heard of it and understood the grace of God in truth;
⁷  just as you learned it from Epaphras, our beloved fellow bond-servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf,
⁸  and he also informed us of your love in the Spirit.
⁹  For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,
¹⁰  so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;
¹¹  strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously
¹²  giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.

Sermon was Stand Firm

Are we weary with the world around us? Wars, rumors of wars, violence

Evil plays a MAJOR role in this life – on this planet.

Confronting evil gets tiring. Not what we want to do in life

Spread of Evil – 1 John 2:16   For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world.

Proverbs 27:20  Death and Destruction^[a] are never satisfied,
    and neither are human eyes.

Matt 10:22 ²² You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.

Matt 24:13 ¹³ but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.

1 Cor. 16:13-14      (1) Be on your guard; (2) stand firm in the faith; (3) be courageous; (4) be strong.  (5) Do everything in love.


Eph 6:10-20 Amour of God  Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. ¹¹ Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. ¹² For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. ¹³ Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. ¹⁴ Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, ¹⁵ and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. ¹⁶ In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. ¹⁷ Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
¹⁸ And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. ¹⁹ Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, ²⁰ for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.

Please pray for the sick as Jesus really heals!!

Please pray for Pastor John & his family in Pakistan, they have been under a lot of Extreme threats!!
