SERMONS

"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man
of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works."
-- 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Wellspring (Proverbs 4:10-27; 5:16-23)

Listen to this weeks sermon
10Listen, my son, accept what I say,
and the years of your life will be many.
11I instruct you in the way of wisdom
and lead you along straight paths.
12When you walk, your steps will not be hampered;
when you run, you will not stumble.
13Hold on to instruction, do not let it go;
guard it well, for it is your life.
14Do not set foot on the path of the wicked
or walk in the way of evildoers.
15Avoid it, do not travel on it;
turn from it and go on your way.
16For they cannot rest until they do evil;
they are robbed of sleep till they make someone stumble.
17They eat the bread of wickedness
and drink the wine of violence.

16Should your springs overflow in the streets,

your streams of water in the public squares?
17Let them be yours alone,
never to be shared with strangers.
18May your fountain be blessed,
and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.
19A loving doe, a graceful deer--
may her breasts satisfy you always,
may you ever be intoxicated with her love.
20Why, my son, be intoxicated with another manʼs wife?
Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman?
21For your ways are in full view of the Lord,
and he examines all your paths.
22The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them;
the cords of their sins hold them fast.
23For lack of discipline they will die,
led astray by their own great folly.

  • Big Idea:
    • We can't change the direction of our lives by what we do; we can only change by what we love.
  • Robbed                                                                                                                           
    • A superiority complex and an inferiority complex are two sides of the same coin.  
    • Often when people act in a destructive manner they don't know why they're doing it.
  • Disordered Desires                                                                                                                
    • Every day we make decisions that shape our eternal destiny.                                                                                 
    • There's no auto pilot when it comes to living by faith.  
  • Pay Attention                                                                                                               
    • We're all looking for a beauty or a glory to merge with.  
    • "The problem with our lives is that our hearts are filled with disordered loves." Saint Augustine                                                                                                       
  • Merging with Glory                                                                                                                      
    • The only way to be delivered from darkness is to receive Christ's glory. John 4:1-14; 14:1-6
The world doesn't need more role models of false perfection; it needs more people who are not ashamed of the gospel.
