“Pride Goeth Before Destruction"

by Pastor Silas Doctor

“12 A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth.

13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;

14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

20 My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother:

21 Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck.

22 When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee.

23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:"

Proverbs 6:12-23

Pride. It affects us all. How will you let it affect you? Ho do you let it affect your walk with God? Will you be too prideful to humble yourself before Him? Are you back sliding and too prideful to come back to Him?

Pastor explores this dreadful sin - the first sin satan had in believing himself to be able to rise to the same level or higher than God - that of pride - in today's message. We pray you have humbled yourself before the Lord, repented, and come to know Jesus as your personal Savior.

“Bow the Knee!"

by Pastor Silas Doctor

“35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.

37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"

Mark 4:35-41

The Bible says, clearly, that every knee should bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord [Philippians 2:10-11].

When will you bow your knee? Now, in surrender and acceptance of His salvation... or on Judgment Day in condemnation and damnation?

Ultimately, God has given us a choice. But make no mistake. Jesus is King.

“New Year....How to Start A New Year!"

by Pastor Silas Doctor

“17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:

19 Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

20 But ye have not so learned Christ;

21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

27 Neither give place to the devil.

28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."

Ephesians 4:17-32

God calls us, as followers of Jesus Christ, to put away our old lives and our old selves [v. 22] - who we were before we knew Jesus Christ as our personal Savior - and adorn the new creation we are in Christ Jesus [v. 24].

He is our great Coach, our Creator, our Savior, our Help, and our God. If you know Him, are you following Him like you should? If you don't know Him, please, please get it settled today.
