Whether you are single or married, God has something to say to you through the Bible. There are certain guidelines and parameters for us, no matter what our marital status, concerning how we are to conduct ourselves in relationships. In 1 Corinthians 7, Paul begins by addressing single adults and then moves on to discuss marriage and sex. In today’s study, Pastor Gary takes us through this passage to help us understand God’s view of singleness and marriage.

While the culture shouts, “My body, my choice”, the Bible contradicts that for Believers. For Christians, Paul says that our bodies belong to the Lord, and we need to honor God with our bodies. Since our bodies include our sexuality, the question becomes—what does God expect of us in the area of sexuality? Paul gives us guidance about this in 1 Corinthians 6. Follow along as Pastor Gary shares today’s teaching entitled, “God’s View of Sex.”

If someone begins a question with the phrase, “Do you not know?…” it usually implies that either you did know, or should have known, but you failed to act. Paul begins six questions like this in chapter 6 of 1 Corinthians as a way of asking a corrective question about some things that the Corinthian church was doing wrong. In today’s study, Pastor Gary tackles three of those questions to help us understand God’s perspective on lawsuits and lifestyles.

In today’s study from 1 Corinthians 5, Pastor Gary explains the rare, but sometimes necessary, need to exercise “church discipline”—the process by which church leadership confronts a person living in open, unrepentant sin, encourages the person to repent of that sin, but then removes the person from fellowship if he/she does not repent. And what if something like this is happening in your own home or extended family? How do you respond to those who are living in open, unrepentant sin but still expect you to just “love” and “accept” them rather than “judge” them. That’s the definition of “tolerance” in today’s culture. Listen or watch as Pastor Gary helps us to understand what true Biblical tolerance looks like.

Since the beginning of time, God has had a plan to rescue the world through the cross of Jesus Christ. And then He says, “Anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Acts 2:21). Paul describes this wonderful gift in 1 Corinthians 2, and Pastor Gary shares how a person can receive this gift through faith in Jesus Christ.

What hinders people from going on to maturity in their faith? That was the question concerning the church in Corinth. Paul writes his first epistle to them in response to questions they had had, and to correct them about what they were doing wrong. They were guilty of idolizing their leaders and of allowing a worldly “wisdom” to creep into the church. In today’s message, Pastor Gary addresses these things and warns us not to repeat their mistakes, in a message entitled, “It’s Time to Grow Up!”

Christians need to be engaged in the 2024 presidential election. The freedoms we enjoy and the country that we love are in jeopardy. But Christians must unite if we are to make a difference. If our voices are not heard, and our votes are not counted, then every evil, demonic philosophy will fill the vacuum. But what if you don’t particularly like either candidate? What if you feel apathetic about this year’s election? Pastor Gary makes the argument that voting is not just a right, but a duty, and he helps us to understand how Christians can be involved in the political process.

The Bible tells us that there are “spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms,” meaning that there is an unseen battle being waged over us and around us. The evil forces are led by Satan, also known as the Devil, the Dragon, the Serpent (and other titles). Satan, also called Lucifer, was once a beautiful angel in heaven who recruited a third of the other angels in an attempted coup against God. But Satan lost that battle and was expelled from heaven, along with his army of angels (now known as “demons”), and he roams the earth today “like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.” In today’s teaching entitled “Crushing Satan”, Pastor Gary explains what spiritual warfare is, how we can withstand it, and how God fights for His children!

In Paul’s closing comments to the Church in Rome, he warns about the sin of divisiveness that can destroy a church, a family, or an organization. God hates divisiveness for two reasons—(1) because it is inconsistent with His nature, and (2) because the source of divisiveness is Satan. God is about reconciliation; Satan is about division. God brings together things that are broken; Satan breaks things that are brought together. Someone who is divisive is not operating in the spirit of Jesus, but in the spirit of Satan. This is why Paul warns about people who cause division. In today’s study, Pastor Gary explains how we can identity a divisive person from someone who is just different, with different ideas or opinions.
