Why is it so dreadful to trust and delight in creatures? Isaiah 31–32 prepares us for the first serial reading in public worship on the Lord's Day.

This is the first episode of a 3 part consideration of the spiritual armor Paul list in Ephesians 6. Before one can understand and interpret the various pieces of armor he must consider the whole suit on the Christian.

Romans 13:14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires. 1 Thessalonians 5:8 But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

And even now you are not yet ready, for you are still of the flesh."

Message preached from the pulpit of Lewis Lane Central Baptist Church in Church Hill, Tennessee.

There was little in the Old Testament priesthood which spoke of joy. All of our entrances unto God were bought with the blood of the innocent, and the whole system was designed to keep us at a safe distance from God… close enough to worship when commanded, far enough to escape destruction… But of joy, deep and profound; of joy, strong and insurmountable; of joy, empowering and uplifting; of joy beyond us and within us very little was known in the Old Testament. But in the coming of Christ, joy is both the commandment AND the reality. It is the flavor of our experience with Christ, for just as His life is ours, His joy is ours!

Providence is defined in the Bible-based Heidelberg Catechism, Q&A 27 and 28. The Questions: 27: "What do you understand by the providence of God? 28: "What does it profit us to know that God created and by His providence upholds all things?"

What does Christmas mean to you? In our culture, Christmas is a conglomeration of mixed beliefs and traditions. But what should Christmas mean to us?
