Taylorsville Road Church Of Christ Podcast

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerThere are dire consequences when people choose to fabricate their own subjective truths. This inescapable reality is made patently obvious in the book of the Judges. 

Series: N/AService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerPilate asked a fine question, however he intended it. Without the truth we cannot find, worship, or serve God (Jn. 4:24; 8:32). Don’t be like Pilate and crucify the Christ when objective truth is so freely had.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerThe yoke of Christ is a yoke of instruction, discipline and denial, service, and fellowship. Taking this light and easy yoke leads to finding rest for our souls.

Series: N/AService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerLiving as a Christian in a secular society is tough! God's goal for the Christian is a holy and blameless presentation at the judgment. In order for this to take place, there are certain norms, four of which are detailed in this lesson.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerCain's genealogy in Genesis 4:14-24 reveals an ungodly family focused more on technological and urban development than on God. The list is very comparable to the secularization of society in our current day and age.

Series: N/AService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerSeth's genealogy in Genesis chapter 5 is in stark contrast to Cain's in Genesis 4. Seth's descendants seem to have remained in a strong relationship with God until the intermarriage of the sons of God and daughters of men in the time of Noah. Seth's family serves as an inspiration toward godly living within the one family of the church.

Series: Fruit Of The Spirit vs. Works Of The FleshService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerThe Spirit bears the fruit of peace in the life of Christians; peace with God, peace with others, and peace with self!

Series: Fruit Of The Spirit vs. Works Of The FleshService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerIn opposition to the Spirit, the flesh sows seeds of rotten fruit that oppose peace. These fruit include strife, disputes, dissensions, and factions.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Louie Taylor"Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him show by his good behavior his deeds in the gentleness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not be arrogant and so lie against the truth. This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, natural, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing.But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy. And the seed whose fruit is righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace." (James 3:13-18)

Series: N/AService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Paul Ayres“You yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, how I was with you the whole time, serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials which came upon me through the plots of the Jews; how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you publicly and from house to house, solemnly testifying to both Jews and Greeks of repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. And now, behold, bound by the Spirit, I am on my way to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there,except that the Holy Spirit solemnly testifies to me in every city, saying…

Series: N/AService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerMany suppositions are made regarding religion. The Bible shows us the danger of these suppositions and warns us against them. No person should ever be dependent on opinion as a basis for their faith and their understanding of the faith.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerGod provides an explanation and provides sources of comfort for the suffering in this world. So rather than use Him as a pretext for disbelief, we should go to Him for answers!

Series: HymnsService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerFanny Crosby, blinded by an eye infection at a mere six weeks old produced nearly 9,000 hymns in her life. One of her most famous hymns, "Tell Me The Story Of Jesus", outlines the birth, ministry, death, resurrection, ascension, and heavenly work of Jesus.

Series: N/AService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric Parker"Likewise, women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments, but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women making a claim to godliness." (1 Timothy 2:9-10) "Your adornment must not be merely external—braiding the hair, and wearing gold jewelry, or putting on dresses; but let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God. For in this way in former times the holy women also, who hoped in God, used to adorn themselves, being submissive to their…

Series: Fruit Of The Spirit vs. Works Of The FleshService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerThe Spirit produces a disposition of joy that provides a foundation for every action, response, thought, and emotion Christians possess. This joy is pervasive and abiding and it is God's will for you! Here are two great quotes used in the lesson: 1) "If you have no joy in your religion, there's a leak in your Christianity somewhere." (Billy Sunday) 2) "The reason why many poor souls have so little heat of joy in their hearts, is that they have so little light of Gospel knowledge in their mind.  The further a soul stands from the light of truth, the further he…

Series: Fruit Of The Spirit vs. Works Of The FleshService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerWhile not specifically listed in the list of Galatians 5:19-21, cursedness/wretchedness is the inevitable result of walking after the flesh rather than in the Spirit. It is the opposite of the Fruit of the Spirit "joy".

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerThe rich man who goes to torment learns several truths the hard way that we should learn before the hour is too late.

Series: N/AService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerGrace, typically and correctly identified as the unearned favor of God, is multifaceted. Galatians examines different aspects of grace as applied in salvation and purpose for the Christian.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerAnanias asked Saul of Tarsus a substantial question regarding his salvation: "Why do you wait?" Saul had no answer and prevented any further delay. What about you? Have you allowed excuses to delay obedience? Why do you wait?

Series: N/AService: Sun PMType: SermonSpeaker: Eric ParkerWhile the doctrine of the unconditional security of the believer (i.e. "once saved always saved") is heresy and provides a false hope, Christianity provides an anchor of hope for the soul. Whoever abides in Christ can have assurance that he is saved!
