September 1, 2021 | Rev. Anthony Yanney When we go into survival mode, we need the immovable to keep us grounded, and by choosing faith in the promises of Jesus Christ instead of fear of the unknown, we will get through the difficulties of life. The Lord is the same yesterday, today, and forever and is equally faithful.

August 25, 2021 | Rev. Nathan Elms Your present and future can be sometimes tied to your past, which can be difficult on us. If we can't have empathy for the person we were, it will lead to self-cruelty, and yet cycle with self-protection. It is easy to dislike the person that we were, but then defend that same person. Instead we should have empathy for that person, but not defend that person. Please understand that as a human, we were led by our desires and appetites at that time in our lives. As a solution, ask God for understanding concerning the things that we sought for happiness. Remember that we were trying to solve our soul's desire (who we actually are) through our flesh. 1. Identify the bad desires that aren't good for us, and then seeking God for wisdom and strength for overcoming the things that are hurting us. 2. Begin viewing ourselves as God views us. He paid a price for us and chose us, while we were still in our messes. 3. Remember that if we don't change what we pursue, we can never overc

July 28, 2021 | Pastor Nathan Elms Although God is not the author of evil, the world is full of evil. God and His Kingdom is not risk by evil because God has already won. Evil has been defined Biblically as anything that harms another, but is also the lack of goodness, and can be quite broad in definition. God was not created in the world, but instead God created the world. When a human rejects God's Nature it creates a void of potential evil. The absence of love is the beginning of evil. Although murder is an evil action, it is first birthed within the heart. We have been given the choice to exalt or humble ourselves. http://nathanelms.com/ https://firstchurchclt.com/ https://youtu.be/rgpt_FP0DKc

July 21, 2021 | Pastor Nathan Elms We find ourselves choosing our path which can either be a worshipper of self or of God. Generally the Bible refers to that choice within us is known as the heart. What we choose is practical spiritual warfare. When we serve self, we align with the kingdom of hell, but when we serve others, we align to the Kingdom of Heaven. Following Jesus is the way of self-submission and putting God first. We didn't leave God to serve satan, but instead serve ourselves. http://nathanelms.com/ https://firstchurchclt.com/ https://youtu.be/Flm6W9hm3uQ

July 14 2021 | Pastor Nathan Elms • God created Lucifer to be a worshipper, but through choice for self, and self-worship, Lucifer chose self over God, and created satan. • Evil is birthed out of serving self. • The way that created beings rebel against God, is to worship self. • Luke 6:45 states that out of our "heart" also called "self" comes evil and wrong motivations. • Sinful humanity, which is all humans, can only be redeemed with the good news of the Gospel. • The Kingdom of Satan, which is the Kingdom of self, is always inviting humans to join the exaltation of self. • The Gospel provides willing humanity a covering of the righteousness of Jesus the Messiah, which saves us from the destruction caused by the worship of self. • The first step of the Gospel is the humbling of self. • The only hope for humanity is to humble self, exalt God, and to prefer and serve others. http://nathanelms.com/ https://youtu.be/esNWkknNi74 https://firstchurchclt.com/
