Episodes

  1. The End of the World 2: Beware of the Antichrist

    The Bible describes the antichrist in three main parts of the Bible: Daniel 7; 2 Thessalonians 2; and Revelation 13. Pulling these together, we get a lot of information about what this evil king will do. Daniel 7:2-8, 19 The prophet Daniel had a vision of four beasts coming out of the sea. The...

  2. The End of the World 1: Great Tribulation

    – Daniel anticipates unparalleled distress, deliverance, and resurrection. (Daniel 12:1–3) – Jesus warns of great tribulation and calls his followers to endurance: “he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” (Matthew 24:13, KJV) – The abomination of desolation and the revealing…

  3. The Blessing of God

    Psalm 33:6, 9 God’s words are powerful; by them he created everything. Genesis 1:20-22, 27-28 A blessing from God has a massive effect. Genesis 12:1-3 God’s blessing on Abraham and Sarah was contingent on their obedience. Numbers 6:22-27 The blessing God gave to Aaron to say over the people is...

  4. The Devil is Seeking Division

    God called us to be part of His family to love Him and each other. United we stand, divided we fall. The devil’s method is to have us fight with each other rather than fight for each other. We are family and need each other. Ephesians 2:13-22 God’s plan through Christ and the New Covenant is to...

    Living Hope,Community Church,Sunday service,Bible,Yahewh,God,Jesus,scripture,Gospel,resurrection,made new,Romans Christian believers share in Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection, which sets them free from the power of sin. But following Jesus requires giving up our old, selfish ways, much like…

  7. The Gospel 9: Follow Christ and Experience Transformation

    Jesus’s teachings are not merely suggestions for success, but the very words of God that will enable you to live a better life. Learning Jesus’s teachings and imitating his example will transform your life. Deuteronomy 18:18 Moses prophesied that God would raise up another prophet like him. John...

  8. The Gospel 8: Surrender to Christ to Experience New Birth

    Believing “in” Jesus not “about” him is required to be born again. We must surrender to his lordship in our lives to enter the Kingdom of God. John 2:23-25 The intention of miracles was to point people to Jesus, not just to merely impress them. John 3:1-10 Nicodemus was a Pharisee and ruler of…

    more
  9. The Gospel 7: Jesus is Coming Again

    Luke 19:11-15 Before answering why Jesus is coming back, we can first ask why he left in the first place. As it turns out, Jesus told a parable about this. He explained that he had to go away to receive royal power and then return to rule the world. Reasons Jesus Is Coming Back Matthew 25:31-34...

  10. The Gospel 6: Jesus, Resurrected Messiah

    The Old Testament set clear expectations for what the Messiah would do. Although Jesus did not fulfil many of these expectations, we have good reason to believe he will when he returns because of his resurrection from the dead. The messianic prophecies of the Old Testament set our expectations…

    more
  11. The Gospel 5: Jesus Died for Your Sins

    “Atonement” is defined as “reparation for an offense” and it repairs a broken relationship between two parties by offering a payment to make right that which is wrong. In the Old Testament, God’s people offered sacrifices to God through the rituals of Passover, the sin offering, and the Day of...

  12. The Gospel 4: Jesus, the Perfect Man

    Although it’s common today to think of Jesus as God, he’s the human mediator between God and mankind (1 Tim 2:5). God never feels the pull of sin. Like eating liver and onions, sin holds no temptation for God (Jam 1:13). Jesus, however, faced temptations to sin throughout his life, but he…

    more
  13. The Gospel 3: God Promises to Heal Our World

    Our hope should be the anchor of our soul as we navigate the struggles of life. Scripture gives us abundant and vivid information about the coming Kingdom, providing a clear picture of the future we can confidently anticipate, rather than relying on vague or speculative ideas about heaven. Romans...

  14. The Gospel 2: Sin Has Corrupted Everything

    Pastor Sean uses the Bible version NRSVue In part two of our gospel series, we consider how sin separates us from a holy God and causes negative consequences in our lives. Isaiah 6:1-5 The prophet Isaiah saw God in an incredible vision. This intense experience made him acutely aware of his own…

  15. The Gospel 1: God Created a Good World

    The post The Gospel 1: God Created a Good World first appeared on Living Hope.

  16. God is Unique

    Genesis 1 portrays God as unique among the so-called gods of the ancient world, a God who loves and intimately cares for his people. Instead of describing scientifically what happened in the beginning, Genesis 1 is telling us who God is and why he alone is worthy of trust and worship. “In the...

  17. Transformation 5: The Danger of Narcissism

    According to Jim Wilder, narcissists are those who cannot metabolize shame in a relational way. What do you do when you’re confronted? Do you shift the blame, counterattack, or get defensive? A great key to transformation is learning to process shame and take responsibility both with people…

    more
  18. Transformation 4: Openness to Improve

    If we are open to improve, the Scriptures will guide us and God’s family will help by providing the example and godly reproof and correction as needed. There are two types of mourning or shame; (1) Godly and healthy, and (2) Worldly and toxic. The first inspires change and the second causes...

  19. Transformation 3: The Power of Loyalty

    Ḥesed is God’s steadfast covenant love and faithfulness as revealed in His character, His promises to Israel and David, and ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Because God has shown us this loyal love, He calls us to reject empty religion and become a ḥesed-shaped people who faithfully love Him...

  20. Transformation 2: The Kind of People We Are

    Looking at three examples in the Bible of people who abandoned their previous group identity to join God’s family, we see a pattern to emulate. Rather than thinking of yourself as an American or a businessman or a student who goes to church, think of yourself as a child of God who is also an...

  21. Transformation 1: The Joy of a Shining Face

    Luke 15:7 lost sheep; 10 lost coin; 20 lost son – God is our joyful Father Numbers 6:24-27 Psalm 89:14-16 “countenance” in Hebrew is paneh – “face” Psalm 16:11 “presence” is again “face” 1 Thessalonians 2:7-8 joy is experienced in a relationship when someones face lights up when they look upon…

  22. God’s Spirit Poured Out

    Acts 2:1-4 When the wind and fire came, it got everyone’s attention. God had appeared in fire before (Exod 3:2-5; 14:24; 19:18; 40:33-38; Lev 9:22-24; Deut 4:24; 2 Chron 7:1-3). Speaking in tongues is a miracle wherein God’s spirit enables someone to speak a foreign language without learning it…

  23. Practical Christianity 6: Weekly Learning

    Christian growth is not merely about gaining information, but about transformation into the likeness of Christ. Paul writes in 1 Timothy 1:5, “The goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and a sincere faith.” Biblical teaching is meant to shape our hearts, minds, and...

  24. Practical Christianity 5: Weekly Worship

    Psalm 73:25-28 This is the worshipful heart of a psalmist who sees God as his ultimate desire, his portion, the one in whom he takes refuge. Overwhelmed with the joy and satisfaction of knowing and communing with God, he seeks to tell of God’s works. That’s worship. 1. Singing: Psalm 100:1-2;...

  25. Practical Christianity 4: Christian Relationships

    God’s desire is for His family to live in unity and harmony. Throughout Scripture, He shows us how to deal rightly with one another so that our relationships can be loving, healthy, and at peace. Honor all people – Romans 12:9-10; 1 Corinthians 12:23; 1 Peter 2:17; John 3:16 Honor involves…

    more
  26. Practical Christianity: Behaving Like a Christian

    Colossians 3:1-4 Christ’s death, resurrection, and ascension were not merely historical events. In Christ, God has brought about a whole new realm of spiritual authority in which you can live. But you can only benefit from this if you set your mind on the things that are above. Colossians 3:5 The...

  27. Practical Christianity 2: Your Identity in Christ

    Our identity is no longer based upon how we feel, or what we do, or how others think about us. Like the Apostle, the old you is now dead and the new you is Christ-like. Identity is your core sense of self. Who am I really. The lens through which you see yourself. 1 Peter 1:1 You are chosen!...

  28. Practical Christianity 1: Develop Your Relationship with God

    God is awesome. God knows you. God loves you. Coming to grip with these three facts is the basis of our relationship with the Most High. Reading the Bible and praying daily are important ways to develop your relationship with him over time. Revelation 4:1-11 God is awesome. We must begin here.…

    more
  29. The Moment the World Changed

    The Gospel of John records the events of Jesus’s crucifixion and resurrection. This was the moment the world changed. This not merely history, but a living story you can participate in today. Have you said, “It is finished”? John 19:16-22 Crucifixion was a routine though grisly part of living…

    more
  30. The Triumphal Entry

    The Bible gives more attention to the final week of Jesus’ life than to any other period. Reading of His suffering and crucifixion is difficult because of our love for Him; yet God desires that we both understand and feel the depth of the sacrifice made for our redemption. This teaching offers a...

  31. Names of God: Yahweh Roi, Yahweh Tsidkenu

    Building a fuller knowledge of God and more substance for praise are the aim of this teaching that focuses on Yahweh Roi – God shepherds, Yahweh Tsidkenu – God our righteousness, Yahweh Shammah – God is there, and Yahweh Sabaoth – God of the armies. Yahweh Jireh – God provides → (Genesis 22:14)...

  32. Names of God: Yahweh Yireh, Yahweh Rapha

    When God provided Abraham with a substitute offering, he called the place “Yahweh Yireh,” which means “Yahweh will provide.” When Israel could not drink the water, they cried out and God told Moses how to make the water drinkable. Then God called himself by the name Yahweh Rophecha, which means...

  33. Names of God: God’s Name Is Yahweh

    When God appeared to Moses in the burning bush, he told him his name was Yahweh, which means he will be who he will be. Throughout the Bible we see that God’s people regularly used his name. It makes sense for us today to continue this biblical practice. Exodus 3:1-6 God appeared to Moses in the...

  34. Forgotten Kings: Manasseh

    2 Chronicles 33:1–6. Manasseh systematically dismantles his father’s godly legacy by rebuilding pagan altars, practicing sorcery, and sacrificing his own children. The apple fell “very far” from the proverbial tree. Some of Manasseh’s sins were among the most heinous the nation had ever seen. 2...

  35. Forgotten Kings: Uzziah

    The kings of Judah were part of the genealogical line that ultimately led to Jesus the Messiah. Knowing that the promised Messiah would destroy him, the devil repeatedly sought to corrupt or eliminate that line. The lives of Uzziah and his forefathers show a consistent pattern: when they stood…

    more
  36. Forgotten Kings: Joash

    Joash is a lesser known king with an important lesson for us today. Under the mentorship of the priest Jehoiada, Joash accomplished great things. But after Jehoiada’s death, Joash was quickly led astray. Joash’s life serves as a warning about the limits of spiritual mentorship. While mentorship…

    more
  37. Forgotten Kings: Jehoshaphat

    King Jehoshaphat was a spiritual leader who compromised his allegiances with the world, causing destruction and peril. Nevertheless, Jehoshaphat learned his lesson, and the next time he faced an enemy, he sought Yahweh and trusted in God’s deliverance, rather than his own strength. 2 Chronicles...

  38. Forgotten Kings: Asa

    This message begins with the story of King Asa (2 Chronicles 14–16; 1 Kings 15:9–24), a king who started well by seeking the Lord, tearing down idols, and leading Judah back to God. When faced with overwhelming opposition, Asa cried out to the Lord in humble dependence, and God delivered him (2...

  39. Forgotten Kings: Jehu

    Jehu was God’s weapon of judgment upon Ahab and Jezebel. He carried out his mission with intensity and zeal. Although God has not called the church to violence, we should, nevertheless, imitate Jehu’s zeal in our mission to love. 1 Kings 16:30-33 Ahab did more to provoke God to anger than all the...

  40. Forgotten Kings: Rehoboam

    Deuteronomy 17 God anticipated that Israel would ask for a king, and He did not forbid it. Instead, He gave specific instructions for those He would appoint. The most important requirement was that the king write a personal copy of the Law and use it as a guide for his life and rule. God also...

  41. Baptism of Repentance

    Matthew 3:1-6, 13-17; John 3:22-30; 4:1-3 John the Baptist was called by God to initiate a renewal movement within Israel, featuring repentance through baptism in water. Even though he had no sin, Jesus came to John to “fulfill all righteousness.” Jesus also baptized many, acting through his...

  42. You Are Loved

    “In Christ” reveals the covenant relationship we have with him. The spirit doesn’t change who we are but empowers us to live in the covenant relationship with Christ, freely submitting to his lordship. God’s everlasting love is declared in Romans 8. 1 Corinthians 11:23-27 we are in a covenant...

  43. What Child is This?

    Reading through Luke 2:1-38, we see both God’s provision as well as his restraint in the events surrounding the birth of the Messiah. Instead of cluing in the elite and powerful, he worked through shepherds and the elderly to confirm Jesus’s destiny to Joseph and Mary. God delights to work with…

    more
  44. For Unto Us a Child Is Born

    Isaiah 9:1-2 The land of Zebulun and Naphtali had suffered greatly when the Assyrian king, Tiglath-Pileser, invaded. Though Isaiah lived through the growth of the Assyrian threat from paying taxes (2 Kgs 15:19-20) to outright invasion (2 Kgs 15:29), he prophesied about a light that would dawn on...

  45. You Belong 4: Community Unity

    God has graciously provided us with a diverse community of faith. Rather than judging or worrying about our differences, let’s strive to love one another. When issues come up, we can work them out rather than dividing. Romans 12:3-8 God just loves diversity. We see this so clearly by looking at…

    more
  46. You Belong 3: Your New Identity in Christ

    Your identity in Christ is received, not achieved. You belong because of God’s grace, you are adopted into His family, and your identity is grounded in what Christ has already done. Romans 6 teaches that your old self died with Christ: “Your old self was crucified with Him.” Your former identity...

  47. You Belong 2: Adopted Into God’s Family

    When we first believe and repent, we receive God’s spirit, which adopts us into his family. Like Octavius whom Julius Caesar posthumously adopted, we must accept our adoption and live it out. When we do, we will suffer. Thankfully, our inheritance as God’s children far outweighs any suffering we...

  48. Who Told You That? Jesus Is a God-Man

    Science Assumes Intelligent Design cannot be challenged. Christianity has assumed that Jesus is God and the debate is over. The Gospel the Apostles Preached After forty days of instruction, the apostles proclaimed: God sent, raised, and exalted Jesus. (Acts 2:22–36; 3:13; 5:30–31) Their gospel:...

  49. Who Told You That? God Is Three Persons

    Bible version: NRSVUE (New Revised Standard Version Updated) The common view is that God is three persons in one being or substance. Each of the persons is fully God, but the Father is not the Son, the Son is not the Spirit, and the Spirit is not the Father. Problem 1: Believing that God is three...

  50. Who Told You That? There Is No Spiritual Warfare

    Bible version: NASB-95 (New American Standard Bible-95) The devil disguises evil in sweetness and fun during Halloween, using candy and costumes to draw children toward practices that Yahweh calls detestable. There is nothing sweet or fun about the darkness of the occult or the celebration of...
