Sermon: Spiritual Disciplines – Bible Study

Spiritual Disciplines
Bible Study
Genesis 1:1 – Revelation 22:21
“A Great Commitment to the Great Commandment and the Great Commission will grow a Great Church.”
Spiritual disciplines are practices that we willingly pursue in response to a God who created us, saved us, and guides us.
Spiritual disciplines draw us closer to God, deepen our understanding of who he is, and help make us into the men and women he desires us to become.
We study the Bible but we are not really listening for God’s voice and therefore we do not understand what He wants to say to us.
Five reasons why we should study the Bible.
1. It is divine – II Timothy 3:16
God gave it to us, God gave it to you.
2. It is truth – John 17:17
The Bible is not just partly true, it’s totally true.
3. It is our map – Psalm 119:105
The Bible not only shows us how to know God but it also tells us how we should live.
4. It is our food – Matthew 4:4
The Bible is necessary for our spiritual health and growth.
5. It is our life – Deuteronomy 32:47
The Bible shows us how we can have life, real life.
How Can I Study The Bible?
Prepare
Right Tools
Right Mindset (Psalm 119:18, I Corinthians 2:12)
Record
Exegesis (To lead out)
Context (When was it written?)
Content (What’s the meaning of the words?)
Apply
Hermeneutics (Interpretive)
How does this passage of Scripture apply to me today?
Yield
What action does God want me to take?
The goal of Bible study is not just to know the content of the Bible; it is to get to know the AUTHOR of the Bible in a deeper, more personal way.
Sermon: Joy to the World

Learning From the Songs of Christmas
Joy to the World
Psalm 98:2-9
Even at its best, Christmas means parties to plan, gifts to buy, elaborate meals to cook, long trips to take, or out-of-town guests to host. Instead of bringing JOY, Christmas can bring frustration.
Unfortunately, many people leave Christ out of Christmas. Instead of looking to Jesus, people look for JOY anywhere and everywhere else.
The Bible says a lot about JOY. The kind of JOY the Bible talks about goes much deeper than mere happiness.
The first stanza teaches: THERE IS JOY WHEN THE KING IS RECEIVED
King Herod was anything but joyful when the Magi from the East inquired about the birthplace of a new King.
While Herod saw Jesus as a Threat, the Wise Men saw Jesus as a Gift, and they came to worship Him.
The second stanza teaches: THERE IS JOY WHEN THE SAVIOR REIGNS
Receiving Christ is the important first step. But then we must go on to let him Reign in our lives.
Most of us do a pretty lousy job of running our lives on our own. Jesus knows what will give you JOY.
The third stanza teaches: THERE IS JOY WHEN THE SINNER REPENTS
Sin promises happiness. But Sin delivers sorrow.
The baby changed everything. Has the Bethlehem Baby changed your life?
The last stanza teaches: THERE IS JOY WHEN THE TRUTH RULES WITHS GRACE
JOY comes because He rules with a perfect balance of TRUTH and GRACE.
True JOY will be yours this Christmas if you will RECEIVE Christ, REPENT of your sins, and let Jesus REIGN in your life with Truth and Grace.
