Filed under: Defending the Faith, History, Judgement, Righteousness, Worship — mercyseatchurch @ 2:29 am

Election Sermon 2008 – The Bible & Women Magistrates

Filed under: Defending the Faith, Government, History — mercyseatchurch @ 4:41 am

During this past election, Christians lined up behind Sarah Palin – a woman – for high public office. They ridiculed those who invoked Scripture to point out this was unbiblical. It would have been one thing if the Christians supporting her simply admitted they knew it was unbiblical and contrary to Scripture for her to be in office, but the threat of an Obama presidency was so awful they felt compelled to vote for her anyway. But that wasn’t the case. They actually wanted to change 2000 years of biblical interpretation and declare that it was biblically right for her to be in public office.

Such thinking shows how far egalitarianism has invaded the thinking of Christians in America. Christians actually think the paradigm or model of the world for how women are to live and function is better than God’s model as revealed by Holy Scripture. Hence, Christians proved their allegiance is not to the Word of God first, but to political expediency.

Tyrannicide

Filed under: Government, History, Tyranny — mercyseatchurch @ 11:59 pm

Family Worship

Filed under: Family Issues, History, Marriage, Worship — mercyseatchurch @ 12:53 am

The message of this sermon is crucial. Over 90% of men do not conduct family worship in their homes. They do not open the Word of God to their wife and children and instruct them in the faith. The number one reason children fall away from the faith and/or Christian homes are in disarray is because family worship is not a part of the home. This sermon shows that family worship is biblical; that it was historically practiced by Christians down through the years; and gives practical guidelines for conducting family worship in your own home. 30 min.
