Courageous Conversations Steve Berger

Heavenly Relationships

It has been an AWE-some 6 weeks diving into the realities of Heaven. This week Pastor Steve tackles the questions we all have about relationships in Heaven.

Heaven will not be void of family, in fact we will be one big family. Heaven is where all family members are friends, and all friends are family; we will experience maximized relationships!

Key Scripture:
Luke 8:19-21
Mark 10:29-30
Matthew 22:23-33
Ephesians 5:31-32
Hosea 2:19-20
2 Corinthians 11:2
Revelation 19:6-10
Matthew 8:11
Matthew 22:2-4
Luke 12:37
Matthew 26:29

"No inhabitants of that blessed world will ever be grieved with the thought that they are slighted by those that they love or that their love is not fully and fondly returned. There shall be no such thing as flattery or insincerity in heaven, but there perfect sincerity shall reign through all and in all. Every expression of love shall truly come from the bottom of every heart and all that is professed shall be really and truly felt." 
Jonathan Edwards

Sinless Forever... But Let's Get Real.

All of us have varying degrees of sin in our lives. And though we are all sinners, we can live a sanctified life. However, if your sin doesn't bother you on earth, you wont appreciate the sinless nature of Heaven!

This week, Pastor Steve unpacks the reality of a SINLESS HEAVEN where we will all experience complete deliverance from sin.

Key Scriptures:
1 John 1:8-10
Romans 7:18-25
Revelation 21:4,5
Romans 6:23
1 Corinthians 15:51-58
Romans 8:23,24
Revelation 20:10, 21:8, 21:27, 22:15

Dante's inferno describes the entrance to hell as having a sign, "Abandon All Hope, You Who Enter In."
Steve imagines Heavens welcome as, "Enter Into the Fullness of Hope For All Eternity!"
Ultimately, you decide.

Listen in as Pastor Steve examines the story of Nicodemus' late night visit with Jesus in John 3:1-12.

Being born again is a Necessity- we cannot establish our own righteousness.
⚓︎ Ezekiel 36:25-27, Romans 10:2-4

Being born again is a Need- we cannot redeem ourselves.
⚓︎ James 2:10, Galatians 2:16& 21, John 3:18

The Nature of being born again is the sacrificial love of God.
⚓︎ John 3:16, 2 Corinthians 5:17

The Neglect of being  born again, men love darkness more than light: pride, arrogance, doubt, self-righteousness. 
⚓︎ Jn 3:19-21

Beware of being an almost christian: a person who goes to church, maybe has even been raised in church, who walks the walk but has never been born again. (Acts 26:24-29)
Be an all together christian! -Repent -Believe -Receive -Confess
