    The Revelation Of Things To Come: Soiled Garments

    Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Revelation 3 today. The members of the church in Sardis had a common issue that a lot of churches today have. Most of them were dead in their faith. God has a job for each individual believer, and many are trying to hide from God because it’s too difficult. Instead, we act like the world and put on a show on Sundays. We have Grace, but it’s a pillow to fall on, not a bed to jump on. God has given us what we need to overcome the world, and we must not give up. Surrender wholly to God, be obedient, and listen to Him, even when it becomes uncomfortable, because it’s only going to get much harder from here. And when trouble comes, run TO God, not AWAY from Him. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20 You can reach us at facebook.com/hbchillsboro.

    The Revelation Of Things To Come: He Knows Your Deeds

    Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will continue in Revelation 2. The Church in Thyatira had issues with bad theology, a common problem in many churches today. They were teaching things contrary to the teachings of scripture, and actively encouraging sin, leading them away from God. It sounds shocking until you realize that there are churches that are ok with unrepentant sexual immorality, and others that don’t even preach from the Bible, but only want to preach to satisfy the people and collect money. God knows it’s not everyone caught up in this teaching, which is why He doesn’t hold it against them. In fact, He encourages them to hold firm, because God will give them authority over the nations. Our encouragement for you is to read God’s word, and make sure your church is teaching the right things. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20 You can reach us at facebook.com/hbchillsboro.

    The Revelation Of Things To Come: Beware Of Satan’s Lies

    Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Revelation 2 again. The churches in Smyrna and Pergamum had similar problems. They both gave into worldly struggles. One had people claiming to be Jewish, and yet did not follow the law, and the other had people following the teachings of Balaam, causing others to stumble and commit sin. Satan is known as the accuser, and his greatest trick is pointing out our faults, and getting us to blame God for our problems. We all struggle with something, sin is everywhere. But if we aren’t repenting of those sins, and chasing after everything else the world has to offer, we are playing into Satan’s hands. We don’t have to be perfect, but we do need to be repentant. Otherwise, more and more churches will continue to close, and countless souls will be lost.  “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20 You can reach us at facebook.com/hbchillsboro.

    The Revelation Of Things To Come: Is Your Lampstand At Risk?

    Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Revelation 2 today. The message to the church in Ephesus was a dire warning, and we know today that the church no longer exists. Roughly 4,000 churches close each year in the US alone, with only 3,800 being planted. The reason is that churches are losing their focus. When we make church about everything except Jesus, it’s no wonder why God may decide to pull the lampstand. Highland alone has gone through several cycles of shrink and growth over the last 25 years, but we aren’t immune. If we treat God's grace as a license to do whatever we want like other churches are doing, then it's only a matter of time before our lampstand gets pulled. This warning didn't just happen to the church in Ephesus, but to all churches that have ever been planted. And as we get closer and closer to the tribulation, the number of churches will continue to shrink because people would rather be unfaithful than suffer for His name sake. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20 You can reach us at facebook.com/hbchillsboro.

    The Revelation Of Things To Come: Jesus Is Coming Back

    Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Revelation 1 today. Are you ready for Jesus’ return? The enemy has been feeding us lies and has influenced the world to pressure us into turning away from God. John’s vision warns us about that. Jesus is coming back, and while we don’t know when, it could be very soon based on what’s going on in the world these days. He went through what He did in order that we would receive salvation, but only to those who receive it. One day, time will run out, and we all will meet Him face to face. Everyone will stand before God whether or not you believe in Him. Is your church ready? Are you ready? “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20 You can reach us at facebook.com/hbchillsboro.

    The Lord Is Your Shepherd: Follow Him Today

    Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in Psalm 23 today. This psalm is one of the most well known psalms written by David, and also happens to be the theme of our VBS this year. Why do sheep need a shepherd? Because they tend to make mistakes, wander off, and get eaten. Without the good shepherd, Jesus, we are lost. Like sheep, we are in constant need of Jesus because despite how righteous we try to be, sooner or later we will end up in trouble. But Jesus will still seek us out, correct us, and set us on the right path. This doesn’t give us an excuse to do whatever we want. We have been anointed by Him (verse 5), and so we have a responsibility to follow Him.  “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20 You can reach us at facebook.com/hbchillsboro.

    The Father, The Son, And The Other Guy: The Importance Of The Holy Spirit

    Greetings everyone, and may mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. We will be in John 14 today following a quick message for the kids (main sermon starts at 6:00). Most people would mention God, or at least some version of a “god” to them. Christians talk about Jesus all the time. But the Holy Spirit is incredibly misunderstood, yet equally if not more important than the other two. At the point that we place our trust in Jesus Christ, we receive the Holy Spirit as a helper. He is that voice in your head, or that gut feeling that what you are thinking of doing is wrong. He is also that unexplained courage when you bring up a conversation about your Bible study group at work. And that time when you aren’t sure what to say in front of a group, but somehow words just come out that you never prepared and it all comes together? That’s the Holy Spirit. We may never see God directly on Earth, other than His creation. We might not see Jesus come back in our lifetime. But the Holy Spirit is here with us constantly, and I think He is deserving of our attention.  “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28 19-20 You can reach us at facebook.com/hbchillsboro.
