Biblical Stewardship Part 1 - Biblically Founded

We are excited to bring you the subject on stewardship. The new testament word for steward is oikonomos which is translated to manager/steward; manager of the house, commonly a superior slave of tried character, who looked after the accounts of the household. The Lord has placed this on our pastor heart in such a way that its going to take the entire month of February to cover. Our First endeavor will cover the practical understanding and definition founded biblically . What does the bible say about stewardship and what important examples does the word provide us. Another subject to cover is biblical scope. What includes in our stewardship as servants. What are the most basic biblical examples given to us to not only understand but how to properly execute according to His expectation.

Fear Is A Liar 2023 Edition

Fear is the antithesis of Faith. The simple definition of antithesis is: a person or thing that is the direct opposite of someone or something else. However, we must also remember that fear is an emotion and faith is not, so is it fear that separates us from faith? James tells us that we demonstrate our faith with our actions; our lives; our choices; and how we respond. In Proverbs 1:7  "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge", as the title indicates Fear is a liar; specifically unchecked. ungodly and fleshly fear is a liar. Baseless unbiblical fear can cause anxiety and doubt and cause well intentioned Christians to make spiritually void and purely fleshly decision. Thereby placing us in opposition to God's plan, purpose and direction for us.

Remember The Tried and True Process

Often times I am asked how do I know the right decision to make. There are some simple questions to ask yourself. One, will this make my life better or more difficult? Two, will this help me as a Christian? Progression vs regression, there is no in between. Third, have I consulted Godly people who will be honest with me? Life decisions should involve two to three honest people. Lastly, follow the process that our God provides in His word.

The Good Samaritan

There are times where we will have the opportunity to be the neighbor someone needs. Sometimes we justify our inactions by using scripture inaccurately, because our neighbors isn't just those who sit in the pews with you. We have been called and given the light, but what good is the light if its only lighting up the house you are in only for those in your house? We are to be the light set on a hill for those around us. Today we take a deeper dive into what it really means to be the good Samaritan.

Life Producing Creation

God is the the creator of all things, He was here before the earth was formed, He was there when there was nothing but darkness, and He is still here. Gods word is life sustaining, without God we have nothing and without God we are nothing! When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden, we fell along with them, but God had a different planned in place. God gave is Jesus! The Way, The Truth, and The Life!

Being Drawn To God

We need to remind ourselves that salvation is a gift from God. There isn't one particular thing you can do or a checklist you can mark off to receive salvation. God wants you to submit to Him and His Lordship, we can sometimes find ourselves being complacent in the sight of the Lord, but we need to humble ourselves and realize that we still need HIM! God is on control of all things and His desires are for all men to be saved. We must submit and carry out the will of the Lord!
