Sermons The Living Church: Anniston, AL

It is a good practice for Christians to commend other believers who are co-laborers with them in doing Christian work.

Christians are called to live in the watching world in a way that brings glory to Christ.

Elimelech's family goes to Moab to escape famine. He and his two sons die, leaving his wife Naomi and her two daughters-in-law, Ruth and Orpah as widows. THis is the setting for the first chapter, where Ruth, a Moabitess, will confess faith in the God of Israel.

Christian employees are called to a higher standard in the workplace. All Christian work is to be done from the heart to the Lord. We do this because we are in Christ and He is Supreme over our lives.

The book of Judges ends tragically, with a war between Benjamin and the other eleven tribes of Israel. The moral degradation of Israel is on full display because God was not honored as King and they did not have an authority over them.

Christ's supremacy should be evident in the Christian family, and it is exemplified in the relationship between children and parents.
