If the Cornerstone of a building is bad, the whole building is bad... is Jesus the Cornerstone of your religion? If you have the wrong Cornerstone, everything else in your religion is going to be wrong. All of the cults have gone wrong in their false doctrines because they started with a bad cornerstone. Have you heard the bad interpretation that Jesus was referring to a wedge-shaped keystone at the top of an archway when He referred to Himself as the Cornerstone? This study shows why He is referring to the Cornerstone itself and not the far less significant keystone. For more episodes go to: http://upp.mypodcast.com

This is a powerful song on 1 Samuel 14:1-23 (read the passage before listening to it) which views that text from the perspective of the New Testament Church and missions. Very powerful, consider each sentence in this song as it relates to missions, spiritual warfare and the church. This perspective on this text would make for a good sermon. ****Update: I preached on this text from this perspective here: http://tinysa.com/30793 All of Melissa Yates songs can be freely downloaded here: http://thoughtsonthewayblog.blogspot.com/2009/11/melissa-yakes-friends.html For more episodes go to: http://upp.mypodcast.com

The following questions were answered: 1. I was meditating on our struggle with the flesh and came upon the thought of: did Adam and Eve have the “flesh”? I know the deceiver serpent tempted Eve, but what I’m not sure about is whether Adam and Eve actually had a sinful flesh? They would have had to…in my thinking…due to the “flesh” taking over to disobey God and sin. I was really just wondering if “flesh” entered the world upon Adam’s sin, or was “flesh” something that’s always been there. My thoughts were that if they sinned, they must have lost the battle of spirit and flesh, but then that would put them in the ranks of “fallen” man…wouldn’t it? 2. Denominations…there’s lots of them today. It’s frustrating finding the truth! Is everyone wrong? There is only one truth, one interpretation, one right answer. How on earth do you find it? 3. Do you believe that predestination is the foreknowledge of God? John 6:64 talks about knowing who would believe or not? Do you think that God predestinates some to hell and some to heaven? 4. My girlfriend and I have been dating for 2 years now and we profess our faith in Christ. We have been through a lot and seen a lot. How do we not fall into temptation of sexual desires since we have been together for so long? It’s hard and every teen has pumping hormones. 5. Hello, Pastor Tim Conway! I am a wife struggling with jealousy. I know of my husband’s struggles with pornography and how he is battling to keep his mind pure, and whenever I am with my husband and see a woman dressed immodestly, my emotions just explode inside of me. I don’t know how to keep them from even surfacing! My husband is wonderful, and has a desire for purity and battles with this sin. I know that love is not jealous, and I know there is a righteous jealousy…but so many times I find myself falling into the “unrighteous” kind of jealousy too!!! How do I deal with this jealousy and stop it from even coming up in my emotions?? 6. I got saved in August of 2006…right before I was shipped off to job corps…at least I thought I was saved. After returning home, I continued the same sins I had been doing before. After I had enough… thankfully the Holy Spirit convicted me and I was free at last from my sin. It felt wonderful!! I had some trials, but nothing was like the feeling I had when Jesus set me free. After a few months of my freedom from my sins…what do you know…I got comfortable in my faith and backslid and have been ever since…which was three years ago. I asked the Lord for forgiveness several times but I feel nothing. I fear my heart is hardened and the Lord has taken his hands off of me. What do I do? I’m tired of hearing what I believe to be false prophets. This is my soul and I will not take it lightly anymore! Please help me! I don’t know what to do next.
