Sermon Notes

(Ministerial Convention) Two men were used in a demonstration to show how the Hands and Feet of the Son are joined to the Hands and Feet of His Heavenly Father. A woman was used to show how the hands and feet of the Bride are to be attached to or joined to the Hands and Feet of the Son. Since the Son is a legitimate Son, He has the Name in His Hands and Feet. When He took our place on the Cross, He had nails driven into His Hands and Feet that left prints that let the Glory of the Name shine out to us. Learn More

This is a continuation of the Principle of the LORD’s Name being in front and in back. Abram fell on his face before the LORD in order to find out God’s Divine Mind and Plan. And, the LORD gave Abram the first Hay of Understanding of His Name on his back. And, the LORD gave Sarai the second Hay of His Name, the Prudence of making wise choices.

(Good Friday) Three letters were read by Reverend Hicks. One was written by Rev. Stan Harper just four days before he went to be with the LORD. The other two letters were from Bro. Jeremiah Lydia and Rev. Paul Harstrom, both of whom belong to the church in Jeffersonville. Learn More

(Easter Sunday) Luke 7:37,38 tells of a woman in the New Testament who learned to live behind the LORD, lifting up His Name. She stood at Jesus’ Feet behind Him, weeping, and she began to wash His Feet with her tears and to wipe them with the hairs of her head. The Hebrew word for behind (akh-ar) is the same word used for the Sea of Forgetfulness behind God’s Back. Although Luke did not mentioned the name of the woman, we know by Principle that it was Mary Magdalene, out of whom Jesus had cast seven devils, because of Mary’s consist willingness to stand in the behind position in other Scriptures.

The 21st Degree of Sharing is called Sharing Christ’s Reconciliation to One’s Brothers. The text is found in Matthew 5:23,24. If, when we bring our gift to the altar, we remember that our brother has something against us, we are to leave our gift and go our way and be reconciled to our brother. Then, we can return and offer our gift to the LORD. Our Salvation is a gift to us, but we have to work to obey Christ’s Command to go our way and be reconciled to our brother. Learn More

The 23rd Degree of Sharing is called Sharing Christ’s Commandment of Righteousness. The text is found in Matthew 5:20. Jesus Christ acknowledged that the scribes and Pharisees had outward righteousness. But, Jesus told His Disciples that their righteousness had to exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees if they wanted to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus commands His servants to have inward righteousness. He wants them to give their hearts to Him, first, before they obey His Command to give tithes of their natural substance. Learn More

The 25th Degree of Sharing is called Sharing Christ’s Burning, Shining Influence, Inwardly. The text is found in Matthew 5:16,17. The Hebrew word for candle is neer, meaning a lamp. It is the same word that is used for the lamps on the Candlestick in the Holy Place of the Old Testament Tabernacle. We have to have the Light of Truth burning and shining within our own heart, illuminating us and showing us the darkness of our own temple, before we can share the burning and shining Light with others.
