Sermon 28Feb2010

Technology is a wonderful thing when all goes well. However, this week, it worked against us. As a result, we were not able to record the sermon. The sermon this week was the first in a new series entitled "4-Letter Words." This week dealt with the subject of Love. Click on the links below if you would like to read the sermon.

Update

I know that some of you have checked back looking for Part 2 of the earlier lesson concerning the scripture that teaches that God hates some people. Part 2 deals with the question of God's love for all men. I am working on that lesson. I pray you will be patient and keep checking back.

In the meantime, let me recommend a book you should read related to the subject of God's love: John MacArthur, The God Who Loves.

Another book that I have not read but that comes highly recommended is one you can download free in pdf format: D. A. Carson, The Difficult Doctrine of the Love of God.

Also, don't forget about this Sunday afternoon at 5:00 is the opening ceremony for the...

After services this past Sunday, someone asked me a question about a statement I made and a scripture reference I used during the sermon concerning the idea that God hates. Here is what I said during the sermon: I know we like to think that God loves everyone in the world, but the Bible makes it clear that that is not the case.

I then quoted from Psalm 11:5.

After reflection, I believe the statement may have been more effectively and accurately stated like this: I know we like to think that God has only love for every person in the world, but the Bible makes it very clear that God does hate some people.

The fact is that no matter how it was worded, the statement would still have caused several people some confusion. So the question had great merit.

I began to study the subject and to write an answer to the question, but it soon grew into a treatise. If you are confused by the subject that God is capable of hate and would like to study the subject, you can click HERE to download a copy of PART 1 of the study. Part 2 will be posted as soon as it is finished.

There is also a PDF file of the 164 Old Testament uses of the Hebrew word sane' (hate) for your own reference purposes.

God bless.

On Sunday, we introduced our theme for the 2010 church year as well as the 2010 DaySpring Calendar of events for the year during worship. If you could not be here or would just like another copy, you can download the calendar.

Getting Ready for Sunday!

 Remember this Sunday that we will be sharing the church calendar and many of the events that we have planned for 2010. This year promises to be great. You don't want to miss this Sunday as we look forward to what God is going to do through DaySpring Church. Have you caught the vision? What do you see?

This Sunday begins a new sermon series entitled "Habakkuk: Seeking Answers to Life's Tough Questions." If you've asked things like why there is evil in the world and when is God going to act to deliver His people from the evil around us, you need to hear this message from Habakkuk.
