CENTRAL THOUGHT The Christian life is a life of integrity.   HYMN:  OVER THE RIVER, FACES I SEE   Text: Psalm 15:1-5   Introduction: Integrity is uprightness of character, honesty, unimpaired state or soundness. It is an undivided or unbroken state or completeness. This is a virtue, which should characterize every born-again person. The Lord Jesus Christ came to give abundant life (John 10:10) to everyone who would believe in Him. Life in its fullness means favor with God; it means peace with God, blamelessness, righteousness, truth in the inward parts: it means integrity! Many people claim to know the Lord; one way to separate the professors from the children of God is probity or morality or integrity. Integrity is for the disciplined and renewed; the born again. This virtue makes a man to guard his heart from thinking evil and his lips from speaking deceit. It keeps a man’s steps in the path of righteousness. The world can speak of good but lacks the strength to do good. Everyone can speak of what is good, but few people follow up their words with good actions. Integrity makes a man to follow up his pronouncements even when it hurts him. He does this because he knows that it tells...

CENTRAL THOUGHT The life of a Christian is a reflection of the degree of his yieldedness to Christ.   HYMN:  ALL TO JESUS I SURRENDER   TEXT: Romans 6:1-23, 1 Peter 4:1-2, Galatians 2:20   INTRODUCTION: The Word of God concludes that every man is a sinner. As a result, man is condemned to receive the wage for his sin. It does not matter how “righteously” man tries to live as he grows up, he is still expected to pay for the sin which was inherited by him from his adamic lineage. The wages of sin according to the scriptures is death (Romans 6:23). However, the provision made by God for the remission of sin is the shedding of blood. Man could not make this sacrifice because iniquity could not possibly pay for iniquity. God in His mercy, not willing that any should perish send His dear righteous Son Jesus to the earth to die for mankind. For as Paul says to the Romans, “But God commendeth His love toward us in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). This death of Christ on the cross according to F.J. Dake, showed that there was no salvation by the law or any other means for...

  CENTRAL THOUGHT Forgetting those things which are behind, let us advance for the things which are ahead.   HYMN:  STAND UP STAND UP FOR JESUS   TEXT: Philippians 3:1-21   INTRODUCTION The Christian life is a race. But many people today think that Christians are people who have achieved holiness, people that are beyond foulness. Indeed, children of God are beyond reproach in the sense that their sins are not only forgotten, yet they may err! The Christian is holy. He is clean and void of contamination. However, the Christian does not make a practice of sin (1 John 2:15-17; 3:2-10). While salvation is the work of the Holy Spirit at the time that the sinner accepts the Lord Jesus Christ, subsequent growth by the individual child of God is definitely not sudden. And like natural growth, one may have stunted growth or normal growth, depending on several factors. And particular experiences in the process of maturity differ. The child born to a family learns from how to breathe, to how to breastfeed, to how to drink other milk, solid foods and then eventually how to feed themselves. Finally, he learns how to fend for himself and for his family; a learning curve that should be normal for...
