Sermon Notes

(Ministerial Convention) Psalm 119:18 says, “Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law..” Ephesians 1:17,18 talks about our inner eyes of understanding being opened. When the eyes of our understanding are darkened, we think that all our happiness, our comfort, our satisfaction depends upon the creature  instead of the Creator.

(Employee Luncheon) Ephesians 5:11-14 tells us to reprove the unfruitful works of darkness. We do this by admitting that we hate something. Our own hate and darkness causes us to grieve the Spirit.

In the Song of Solomon 2:8, the espoused Bride heard the voice of her Beloved. Then in verse nine, she saw Him. I was thinking that this must relate to the Principle of Faith coming by hearing. Pleas eexplain why she cannot see Him clearly.

Luke 12:34 says: “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” The Hebrew root word for treasure means a receptacle, to receive something, a storehouse. The word for treasure also means a treasure place for silver and gold.

The LORD’s Name is in the Four Corners. And God takes us to the Poor Corner, the Stranger Corner, the Fatherless Corner, and the Widow Corner to let us get a joining with the Name that is in those Corners. But in order to receive the Name and get joined to the Supreme, Sovereign Creator, the Father, and to the Name that comes through His Son, we have to be separated from creature relationships.

In Matthew 2:1-11, the wise men were aliens to the Commonwealth of Israel; they were strangers to the Covenants of Promise, but they went through all of the sufferings and separations and surrenders and subjection to the Light of that Star in order to take their treasures to the Christ Child because God made manifest His Light to them over there in the East.

This message answers the following question: Please reconcile what is said in Proverbs 26:4-5. It seems like you are in trouble if you answer and you are in trouble if you do not.

We have two choices. We can love Light and hate darkness, or we can hate Light and love darkness. The Bible says, “[W]hatsoever doth make manifest is light” (Ephesians 5:13).

This message explains the difference between a concubine and the Bride. In chapters six and seven of the Song of Solomon, the Bride is pregnant with her Husband’s works. Children are His works.

The following question is answered in this message: Please share with us something about the delights the Son of God had with the sons of men back in Eternity-Past that we read about in Proverbs 8:30-31.

Luke 12:34 says: “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”  The Hebrew word here for treasure,o-tsaw,is the same word for storehouse for your tithes in Malachi 3:10. The message then branches off to answer the following question: Second Corinthians 10:1-5 says that we have to take our thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ. So I am wondering how I can do that because my mind always wanders everywhere.

(Palm Sunday) The message begins by showing fallen Lucifer’s four natures. As Satan, he stands against the Truth. As the Serpent, he deceives. As the Dragon, he elongates what he has said. And as the Devil, he devours the Truth.

(Palm Sunday) We know that Jesus wept over Seed in the New Testament; that was the fourth point on the Stature of Truth that we studied in the nineteenth chapter of Luke. And in the Old Testament, in Numbers 11:4-10, we see the same Principle of Weeping over Fruitful Seed.

This message continues to discuss the Stature of Truth about the Seeds of Truth, with emphasis on the fourth point: Jesus Wept. Isaiah 53:9,10 says that it pleased the Father to bruise His Son, and it also says that the Father shall see the Seed of His Son. This message explains why it pleased the Father to bruise His Son.
