The world is full of religion and depending on which one a person holds as truth, it will directly impact how they live out their lives. Belief denotes action, and if we allow this notion to instruct our understanding of Jesus and the Son of God He claimed to be, we as Christians, should act on it. Our belief in Jesus should cause our actions to be thought out in real urgency. Join as as Pastor Ray continues his study in John 6:14-21.

How often do we allow ourselves to be deceived by our own heart? The Bible warns us that it is deceitfully wicked, and when combined with our flesh, that wants nothing to do with Jesus, it would seem that there is no hope. As Christians though, we know that’s not the case and that Jesus is is the answer. Join as as Pastor Ray returns to our study in the book of John, picking back up in chapter 6:1-13.

We should all have a desire for spiritual gifts and to then utilize them for God’s glory, not our own. What is it that God wants you to do, not what you want to do or are comfortable doing? Today, Pastor ray finishes his series on the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Are you in a position for God to use the gifts He’s put in you? Perhaps a better way to ask that question is, what does it look like when we are in the place God intends us to be to use those gifts? Pastor starts his teaching on the gifting of the Holy Spirit to help us better understand how God intends the Body of Christ to interact with one another and to the rest of the world.

What does it look like when we’re being used by the baptism? Continuing his teaching on baptism from a biblical perspective, Pastor Ray takes us through the book of Judges to look at how the power of God was used in Samson’s life when he operated in the call that God put on his life. This begs the question, what can we do for the Kingdom of God here in this life when we operate in the call has for us?

What is necessary for your redemption? Some have proclaimed that without being baptized, one cannot truly be saved, but this notion is typically tied to water baptism. There are three kinds of baptism listed the Bible: of Water, of Fire, and of the Holy Spirit. The question must Bec asked then, what are the differences between these kinds of baptisms? Join us as Pastor Ray takes a break from his study in the book of John to teach on the importance of baptism according to the biblical perspective. The answer might surprise you.

Join Pastor Ray as he talks about God's desire to see you redeemed.

It is important that we are aware of doctrines rooted in experiences. These doctrines breed people who are directed by emotions. It’s within these groups that we often hear people claiming that their actions and beliefs are based in a word from God, but we need to verify whether or not that word is anchored in the Word of God. Join us as Pastor Ray returns, continuing in the book of John 5:30–47 as he asks these questions: When we are moved, what is it that we are responding to, and in accordance to that, what is the witness we are going to take action on?

In this life, regardless whether or not you’re a Christian, you have an accuser who’s goal is to see you condemned for your sins. Most people choose to believe that if they’re good enough, God will overlook any bad things they’ve done once they’ve died. The truth of the matter is that despite your best efforts, you will never achieve goodness, but if that’s true, why should you not just give up? Join us as Pastor Ray returns, continuing in the book of John 5:25-29 as he teaches on the legality of our salvation and how Jesus being our kinsman redeemer gives Him, and Him alone, the right and ability to stand against our accuser and pay our sin debt.

The devil’s number one goal is to get us to question God’s character, question His intentions, and hold Him in contempt. What makes the devil’s plan possible is that everyone in this life is seeking for something. This ‘seeking’ nature that we all have can and does often lead to depression, and nothing pleases the enemy more than leading us there. Life is unpredictable, and the troubles of this life come at the mot inconvenient times. To the Christian however, we can run to the Lord who is our high tower and find deliverance, strength, and salvation. Join us as Pastor James preaches this Sunday’s message.

There’s something about desperation and desperate times that draws people toward God, and fro the Christian. That desperation draws a closer to Him. The decision we have to make is will align ourselves with God and His timing when it doesn’t align when we want it to? Join us as Pastor James this Sunday’s message.

Jesus has all power and authority, but do we ever consider what that looks like? He will move how he wants to in any season regardless of the resources we think He needs to accomplish His will. The question is though, will we resist what He wants to do because we don’t understand the how, or will we join God where He’s going? Join us as Pastor Ray guest preaches this week at Life Church of Orange, CA.

In our Christian walk, is there just one kind of faith we can move or not move in? What’s the difference between active faith and passive faith, and how do the two play out in daily walk in Christianity? Join us as Pastor Ray continues our series as he starts John 5:1-9.

It has been said that religion is man’s attempt to reach God. Many over the centuries have used religion to justify evil acts against others, all in the name of a god. There is nothing Satan loves more than a religious turmoil. It’s in his nature to pervert things and he has done just that with religion. Join us as Pastor Ray continues our series in John 5:10-17.

Why did the enemies of Jesus have to kill him? The answer is because Jesus was very clear by what He meant when he told them, “I and the Father are one”. The people of His day knew exactly what he meant and what he was claiming by making that statement. Just as people have done in the days of the early church, people deny Jesus’s sovereignty. If we understand who He is, we can then come to understand God the Father and what it is that He’s done for us. Join us as Pastor Ray continues our series in John 5:18-23.

Why is it important to check ourselves if we find that the way we’re living doesn’t align with the Word of God? There are a lot of reasons why we do things contrary to the will of God, but there’s never a suitable excuse for not doing the things of God. Join us as Pastor Ray continues our series in the Book of John, Chapter 2:23-25.
