Job was a man of God because his relationship with God was demonstrated by his faith and love for his family. When fathers love and spiritually guide their family, others see the love of the Heavenly Father. In this Father’s Day message we hear how the patterns of a godly father and godly man make a difference for the kingdom of God.

In this message from Job 1:1-5 we hear three patterns that a man of God demonstrates:

• The pattern of a godly man brings God in his personal life. Vv. 1-3
• The pattern of a godly man brings joy to his family life V. 4
• The pattern of a godly man brings faith to his family V. 5

In this message we hear how Jesus wants his listeners to know the real understanding of the law and how he relates to it. Each of us have an understanding of the ten commandments, but do you understand why? Hear how Jesus explains the real purpose of the law and the true righteousness that only comes through faith in Christ. We will be in the gospel of Matthew 5:17-20.

In Matthew 5:3-12 Jesus tells us what the blessings of the Kingdom truly are. Jesus told his disciples that the kingdom of God begins from the inside out. A life of hope from Jesus requires a personal heart change in order to have a personal life change. In this message we hear how everyday life situations gives us opportunity to have the heart of the Kingdom.

• Situations bring blessings from Jesus by a selfless heart Vv. 3-5
• Situations bring blessings from Jesus by a seeking heart Vv. 6-9
• Situations bring blessings from Jesus by a persecuted heart Vv. 10-12

In this sermon we hear how God has a better purpose for our lives by seeking the interest of others rather than our own. In this Memorial Day message we honor the men of women who have died serving our country. By their example we see that we too ought to seek the interest of others rather than our own. This sermon was recorded on May 24, 2020 at Oak Harbor Baptist Church. The passage is from Philippians 2:1-4.

• The appeal to humility v.1
• The essence of humility v. 2
• The expression of humility Vv. 3-4

As each of you grow in your faith we must understand that we can come under the influence of others. This influence can lead us away to the one faith which is in Christ alone. So there are three imperatives  for the church to know about spiritual maturity. Here are the three imperatives the church must know to be mature in Christ.

• Its imperative the church know suffering in Christ
• Its imperative the church know the mystery of Christ
• Its imperative the church know their strength and maturity is in Christ
