- The Cross and the Resurrection By : Hal Warren
Remember the cross and the resurrection together. Sort of like having to have both wires to get the power to flow to a light bulb. We need the legal deliverance from sin at the cross (the black wire) and the power of the resurrection (the white wire) in order to let our lights shine! - Walk in the Light By : fenny west

Studying the feasts of Israel will help us understand God and His timing. - The Beatitudes (The Blessings) By : Hal Warren
Beatitude comes from the Latin word meaning blessed. - The Perfecting (Breaking) of Peter By : Hal Warren
Learning how the Apostle Peter was "meeked" by the Lord will help us yield to God's meeking of our lives. - The Fear of the Lord By : Hal Warren
The fear of the Lord is the key to all the vast treasures of God. We seek to be blessed by Him but have not met the condition to be blessed. That condition is the FEAR OF THE LORD. - Are You God's Child? By : Hal Warren
One Greek word for children "teknon" is used to describe a newborn baby or immature son by virtue of birth. This accurately describes our condition of immaturity when we are first born again from above.
Another Greek word for children "huios" is used to describe a person whose conduct and actions give evidence of their relationship and resemblance to their Father's character. - Self Deceived By : Hal Warren
One of the questions that I hear pastors and teachers say most often is, “How can people attend our worship services and Sunday Schools regularly and still not give of their time, talent, and money?” - Knowing His Ways By : Hal Warren
God speaks to us in ways that can only be understood if we seek His face. Everything He thinks, says, or does is designed with one purpose in mind – building relationships. - How to Hear God's Voice By : Hal Warren
This article presents several verses that show we are to hear God's voice today! - The Holy Spirit Controlled Life By : Hal Warren
The key to a successful Christian life is the correct understanding and submission to the Holy Spirit. There are just two things that the believer must do in order to be controlled by the Holy Spirit, sincerely desire that control and trust the Lord Jesus for that control. - Mercy By : Hal Warren
Without disciplining ourselves to become “merciers” we will automatically become judgers. Pray the “Mercying Prayer” for others especially when we are tempted to judge and condemn them. We will then have a pure heart that sees God as He really is – MERCIFUL! - Balaam, Prophet of God By : Hal Warren
Both warning and teaching others is the call of a teacher / preacher. This lesson serves to both warn and teach concerning the danger in asking God for permission to do something that He has revealed is against His perfect will. This lesson may reveal some hidden bad desires in your heart or sin in your life. However, God does not reveal to condemn or embarrass but rather to heal. - A Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation By : Hal Warren
Your spirit by the Holy Spirit may be filled with God’s wisdom and understanding. This study is based on the Pauline prayer of Ephesians Chapter 1 and 2. - The Most Important Characteristic of a Christian: Love By : Hal Warren
Having the love of God in our lives is the only way we will show the world that we have a desirable difference. - The Trinity By : Hal Warren
One of Jesus' pre-incarnate titles was "The Word". He does what God the Father asks to the point that there is no distiguishing between what God says (i.e.,the Word) and what Jesus does (i.e., the Word). - Shall We Continue in Sin that Grace May Abound? By : Hal Warren
There are three spiritual classes of men referenced in the Bible:
1. The Natural Man – the unsaved person.
2. The Carnal Man – the Christian who is not living a consistently victorious life over sin.
3. The Spiritual Man – the Christian who understands God’s prescribed method for the saint which results in his living a holy life.
Through this study of Romans chapter six it is my hope that those that are unsaved become saved and Christians in category 2 above will receive the truth - Suffering - God's Only Plan for Our Perfection By : Hal Warren
To cease from sin is to reach sinless perfection. How is it obtained? Through suffering in the flesh! - The Five Phases of a Christian's Growth By : Hal Warren
Contained in the following verse are the five phases of the Christian’s growth cycle.
KJV Philippians 3:10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. - Invitation, Refusal, Banishment By : Hal Warren
There is a common theme running from the Book of Genesis through Revelation; God invites man into His presence (mercy), man refuses, man is then banished from God’s presence (wrath). - Obedience By : Hal Warren
What is God’s standard for obedience? If God asks us to do 100 things and we do 99 of them flawlessly, is it acceptable to omit the last one. Is God going to understand and round up? Can your obedience to God be close enough like with horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear weapons? - God's Thoughts and Ways By : Hal Warren
The God of Mercy does not think like we think. We think that partial obedience is close enough while to God partial obedience is not obedience at all. However, God sent us the Holy Spirit to help us learn to think like He thinks. - Questions for self examination By : FCM Admin
Question to help you examine yourself - Discipleship by Wil Pounds By : FCM Admin
The call to discipleship is on Christ’s terms, not ours. - SPIRITUAL MINIMUM DAILY REQUIREMENTS by W. L. HUGHEN By : FCM Admin
On every box of cereal and each container of vitamins, as well as many other items, the producer is required by our government to place information that will reveal how the contents meets the Minimum Daily Requirements as stated by officials. This information is important to us because it aids us in knowing what we need to know to help us have healthy bodies. - What is Discipleship? By Richard Krejcir By : FCM Admin
What is discipleship and what is Jesus calling us to in Matthew 28:18-20? Is this a command, or a suggestion; does it mean we are just to evangelize and let people find their faith on their own, or does this mean we are to lead others and teach the precepts of the Scriptures and the character of our Lord? Does it require obedience and action on our part, or are we disciples just by being a Christian and being in a church on Sundays? - Discipleship Overview By: J. Hampton Keathley, III , Th.M. By : FCM Admin
Introduction
In a church questionnaire for the men’s group, men were asked if they would like to be mentors or be discipled. When the results came back, many men wanted to be discipled, but very few men volunteered to be mentors. Many people are reluctant to take on the job of mentoring or discipling. Why is that?
Why Is There Such
Reluctance to Discipling? - The Catastrophe and Legacy of Katrina by Fenny West By : fenny west
She came like a thief in the night; the Gulf Coast of America in her sight; innocent people to face the plight. She paraded with wanton bravado, raiding, damaging, rampaging and uprooting with such impunity and ferocity. - Voluntarily Submitting to God - by Peter Rhebergen By : FCM Admin
Voluntarily Submitting to God
February 4, 2001 ~ Crossroads Community Church
Over the past few weeks we have been listening to a series of seven messages concerning "The Road to Recovery." Just to refresh your memory the first four topics of this series were:
1) Realizing that I am not God
2) Earnestly believing that God Exists and that He cares
3) Committing my will to Jesus' control
4) Openly confessing my faults
Today we come to the fifth lesson in this series in which we will study:
5) Voluntarily Submitting to God
