Calvary Chapel of the Canyons

Today, we are talking about the traits of the Philadelphia Church - the Prepared L.I.F.E. Church! This is the church we want to be like - the Lord had nothing bad to say about this church.

Dead formalism is so typical among so many Churches. Alive on the outside but dead on the inside. Sardis describes the type of Christians and/or churches that neglect the ministry of the Holy Spirit in their life. The Lord counsels them to repent’ and strengthen their relationship with the Holy Spirit.

An influential woman (whom Jesus named Jezebel) usurped authority in the Church. For some reason, the Christians listened to her. The strange thing is that they also listened to Jesus at the same time. So, the Christians had two loyalties, divided loyalties. This was a type of Church and Christian that is faithful to Christ, but is also tolerating other influences in their life that lead to spiritual and moral compromises.

The Bible is filled with promises to answer prayer. How often we neglect prayer to our own detriment. I'm certain that our lives would be so much richer and fuller if we were to continue to make our requests known unto God.

These are amazing chapters! The Lord corrects those who have misplaced their trust in people who will fail them. God is forever strong and can make water come out of a rock if we needed it. Let's not depart from God, but continue to trust Him with all of our heart!

This is the most requested message by Pastor Larry DeSimone.He speaks to men and women about what a real man is. The chief character trait of a man is that of courage and fortitude. Bravery! Fortitude! Courage!Honor! These are words that real men are made of. Jesus Christ is the ultimate MAN! He is the greatest Man Who has ever lived. In this message you will hear, perhaps for the first time, what it takes to be a man.

The Old Testament prophecies of Christ's suffering and His eventual reign as King of kings are intermingled, not often seen of prophecies in the Old Testament. This is something that was not understood until Jesus rose again from the dead and the Holy Spirit was given to the Church to put all the pieces together.
