<div>This is my Friend! <br/><br/>(James Smith, "The Pastor's Morning Visit") <br/><br/>"You are My friends!" John 15:14 <br/><br/>What infinite condescension in Jesus, to call us sinful worms--His friends! But He not only calls us so--but treats us as such! And expects us as His friends--to do whatever He commands us. <br/><br/>Is Jesus your friend? <br/>Then visit Him often--let Him hear your voice in prayer and praise. <br/>Then trust Him confidently--let Him see evidence of your faith in your dependence. <br/>Then walk with Him in love--let Him enjoy much of your company. <br/>Then expect Him to be your Friend . . . <br/>in sickness and health, <br/>in poverty and plenty, <br/>in life and in death! <br/><br/>If Jesus is our Friend--we can never be destitute. If our father and mother forsake us--He will take us up and take us in. <br/><br/>We can never be miserable--He will receive us and be a wise and loving Father unto us. <br/><br/>We can never be neglected, for He will never fail us nor forsake us--but will do for us all that He has promised in His Word. He will . . . <br/>defend us from foes, <br/>visit us in sickness, and <br/>cheer and support us in death! <br/><br/>Precious Lord Jesus, You are my Friend . . . <br/>in life, <br/>in death, <br/>at the judgment, and <br/>before Your Father's face forever! <br/><br/>"Yes, He is altogether lovely! This is my Beloved--and this is my Friend!"

You ought to wash one another's feet!<br />

(Philip Bennett Power)<br />
<br />
"He got up from supper, laid aside His robe, took a towel, and tied it around Himself. Next, He poured water into a basin and began to wash His disciples' feet and to dry them with the towel tied around Him." John 13:4-5<br />

You ought to wash one another's feet!<br />
<br />
(Philip Bennett Power)<br />
<br />
"He got up from supper, laid aside His robe, took a towel, and tied it around Himself. Next, He poured water into a basin and began to wash His disciples' feet and to dry them with the towel tied around Him." John 13:4-5<br />
<br />
When the Lord Himself would stoop to the humblest and lowest act of service, and teach His disciples to do the same--the washing of feet was the one He chose.<br />
<br />
During His earthly walk--Jesus saw all humble deeds in both their present and future dignity. He knew how and why it was, that he who would be greatest--must be the servant of all. He connected service and reward together. In His mind--all humble deeds of service were invested with great dignity. Jesus never did a humble deed, or took up a menial position, or uttered a lowly speech, without a consciousness of the true nobility attached to them. Therefore, with great joy did He perform all His humble service!<br />
<br />
It is just here that we fail. We have little power of association. We isolate our humble services and deeds--from their eternal principles and thoughts, and then our services become burdensome, and our duties become toilsome--and failure is too often the result. Let us realize the nobility of our humble services. Let us remember that our now all-glorious Redeemer once said, "I am among you as the One who serves." Luke 22:27<br />
<br />
Life, and common every-day service and duties, will wear a new aspect to us--when we see them tending to such a glorious consummation! We shall have fresh heart and energy--when we realize that the future will compensate abundantly for them.<br />
<br />
"So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet--you ought to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example that you also should do just as I have done for you."

HOW TO TAME TEMPTATION<br />
<br />
How an Eskimo kills a wolf. (He will repeatedly coat the blade in blood, allowing it to freeze, until the blade is covered. Then, he will place the knife in the snow and as the wolf licks the blood, his tongue is numbed, and his hunger is fuelled. The wolf will lick the knife, cut his own tongue and eventually bleed himself to death out of his own lusts.) Satan uses the same tactic to defeat God’s children.

HOW TO TAME TEMPTATION<br />
<br />
How an Eskimo kills a wolf. (He will repeatedly coat the blade in blood, allowing it to freeze, until the blade is covered. Then, he will place the knife in the snow and as the wolf licks the blood, his tongue is numbed, and his hunger is fuelled. The wolf will lick the knife, cut his own tongue and eventually bleed himself to death out of his own lusts.) Satan uses the same tactic to defeat God’s children. He knows that he can never have your soul, but he also knows if he can cause us to succumb to temptation, then we will become powerless and useless as Christians.<br />
Salvation is not a barrier to temptation! On the contrary, Satan is more likely to attack the Christian that the unbeliever. After all, he already has the lost person! He loves nothing better than causing one of God’s children to fall into sin.<br />
However, temptation, while it cannot be avoided, can be overcome! While it is hard to endure temptation can be used to help us grow in Jesus. I believer every believer needs and wants to know how to turn temptation into triumph.<br />
When temptation arises, men usually respond in one of three ways. The primary method for dealing with temptation in to simply give in to it. Many people live by an “If it feels good, do it,” mentality. They live like animals, doing everything they can to gratify the flesh. Nearly all lost people live like this, but sadly, so do many Christians!<br />
Others struggle against temptation daily. They spend all their time fighting temptation in their own strength. They fight and fail over and over, because no one can overcome his evil nature alone. If we could defeat the power of sin on our own strength, then it would have been pointless for Jesus to die for us. This type of person hates what he does, but he goes on doing it because they do not have the power to stop.<br />
Finally, there are those who overcome temptation through the power of Jesus Christ. They turn their temptations into triumphs. That may sound like wishful thinking to many of you, but I want you to know that you can win over temptation. It is possible to live in victory. There are a few things that you need to know to be able to do this. Let’s think together this morning on this thought, “How To Tame Temptation.”<br />
1. The subject of temptation (Who is affected?)<br />
All humans are subject to temptation. (Ill. Best to the least) (Ill. Jesus, Peter, David, etc!)<br />
We are daily assaulted with a wide range of temptations. (List some!) (Ill. We all have one area where we are particularly susceptible.<br />
It is not a sin to be tempted. (Ill. Jesus - Heb. 4:15) Sin enters the picture when temptation is surrendered to.<br />
Our greatest danger is to think we have arrived at a place where we are above sinning, v. 12; Pro. 16:18. When our pride tells us that us that we cannot fall, then we are headed for a huge one! Pride in this area just tempts the devil!<br />
Why doesn't God just kill the devil and remove the attraction for sin? If that were to happen, then you and I would lose the ability to be overcomers in Jesus. Without opposition, there is no victory! God has not called us to a life of ease, but to one of victory. A victory that we cannot enjoy until we have faced evil and overcome it.<br />
2. The source of temptation (Where)<br />
Do not think your temptations are so great, they are just like the ones we all face. (vs 13 - “Common”) They are just common, run of the mill, garden-variety temptations. We all get the same ones from the same sources. (Ill. 1 John 2:16; Ill. Eve - Gen. 3) There are three primary sources of temptation: The world, the flesh and the devil. Let’s look at these three sources and how they attack us.<br />
The World - In the Bible, the word for world means “system or order.” The Bible speaks of this system called the world and says that it is evil. (Ill. 1 John 2:15; James 4:4) It is possible for believers to become so worldly that they fail to stand out for the Lord. We are to be different and distinct. We are not to allow the world to force us into its mould, Rom. 12:1-2; Ill. Matt. 5:13-16 (Ill. Thermostat and thermometer) Ill. The world’s idea of beauty - 1 Pet. 3:3. God’s Idea is inward beauty of the soul untouched and unspoiled by the taint of the world.<br />
The Flesh - Born into everyone of us, from the most innocent child to the most godly adult, is a bent in our nature. There is a leaning toward sin. We inherited this from our first father, Adam. It is called the “old Nature.” (Ill. There is a civil war in the heart of every saved person here today - Gal. 5:17! ) When we fail, we try to blame our sin on the devil. Yes, he tempts us and points us toward sin, but we are responsible for the final decision, Ill. V.13. (Ill. Even if Satan were gone, we would still sin - Ill. Millennium - Rev. 2:27.<br />
The Devil - His main objective, as far as you are concerned, is to cause you to fall so that God is dishonoured and your become useless to the Kingdom work of God. He knows every weakness you have and he exploits them trying to get you to sin. He tells you how great sin will be, that you will get by with it, that you even deserve it, but he hates you and he is plotting your defeat. He loves to point at fallen saints and laugh before God as he stands accusing us of evil. Don’t give him the satisfaction!<br />
3. The seat of temptation (How)<br />
Man is made in the image of the triune God. Man is a triune being, he possesses body, soul and spirit. When you are tempted, it will always be in one of these three areas. We need to understand this principle and understand the areas that will come under attack if we are going to overcome our temptations.<br />
The Soul - This is the word used to describe the you that lives inside your body. It speaks of your mind, your will and you emotions. The world is the primary tempter of the soul. The world says to the soul, “You need more, you can have more!” The world always appeals to the ego, or pride. A worldly person is one who is given over to the pleasures of the world. (Ill. Lot - Gen. 13:10-12 - Lot looked, leaned, lived and lost in the world.)<br />
The Body - The flesh, referring to the “old nature” always attacks the body. We are tempted to laziness, lust, overindulgence, sexual sin, etc. These are temptations of the flesh! (Ill. David with Bathsheba - 2 Sam. 11)<br />
The Spirit - The spirit is the primary arena for satanic attack. If the soul is our self-consciousness, then the spirit is our God-consciousness. Our spirit is what sets us apart from the animals. Man alone can know God! It is in the spirit that we can know God. The spirit is the realm of worship, John 4:24, and it is our spirit that worships and communicates with God. Satan hates this communion and he wars against the spirit in an effort to cut off our fellowship with God. He places doubts in our minds to distract us. He places false doctrine there to turn us away from the truth. Satan attacks the spirit. (Ill. In Peter’s denial of Jesus, the temptation was directed at the spirit. He wasn't under an ego attack, or under sexual assault, he was caused to doubt the truth.)<br />
4. The subduing of temptation (What)<br />
There are three words to remember when facing temptation: Flight, Faith, Fight.<br />
To overcome the flesh we need flight - The key to defeating fleshly temptations is to flee from them. (Ill. 1 Cor. 6:18 - “flee fornication”; 1 Cor. 10:14 - “flee idolatry”; 2 Tim. 2:22 - “flee youthful lusts”) (Ill. You cannot expose yourself to fleshly temptation and expect to walk away untouched - Pro. 6:27 - Ill. Situations to avoid!) (Ill. Joseph and Potipher’s wife - Gen. 39:12)<br />
To overcome the world we need faith - Faith that Jesus will take care of us when we willingly give up the attachment to worldly things. If we are loving the world, we are not loving God - 1 John 2:15; James 4:4. If you really want victory over the world, then love Jesus more than you love it - Heb. 12:2. Ill. It is our faith in him that offers us the victory - 1 John 5:4.<br />
To overcome the Devil we must Ffght - If we stand up to him and fight, he will flee - James 4:7. Ill. You cannot run away from him, but you can drive him away from you. You must face him in the power of the shed blood of Jesus Christ. He doesn't fear you, but he trembles before the blood of the Lamb! Fight Satan and he will flee! (Ill. Eph. 4:27; 1 Pet. 5:8) (Ill. Jesus and His temptations - Matt. 4)<br />
I don’t know what temptations you may be dealing with in your life. However, I do know that if you are breathing, you are battling! Our greatest resource in the face of temptation is a close relationship with Jesus Christ. My counsel to you is that you bring your need to Him. Whatever, the need, the trial, or the temptation and lay it down before the Lord and expect Him to help. He has promised us grace during temptation. Why not take Him up on the offer today16 Sins of Homosexuals.tag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-08-23:916966:BlogPost:9466172009-08-23T09:43:24.000ZEvangelist.R.Chandrasekaran.http://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/EvangelistRChandrasekaran

The ideal Church as revealed in the New Testament, like the New Jerusalem, has twelve gates to it.<br />

1. The Christship of Jesus is the Foundation of the Church. “ Thou art the Christ … Upon this rock will I build My Church” (Matthew 16:18)<br />
2. The Blood of Christ is the Atoning Price of the Church. “ The Church... which He purchased with His own Blood “ (Acts 20:28)<br />

<br />
The ideal Church as revealed in the New Testament, like the New Jerusalem, has twelve gates to it.<br />
<br />
1. The Christship of Jesus is the Foundation of the Church. “ Thou art the Christ … Upon this rock will I build My Church” (Matthew 16:18)<br />
2. The Blood of Christ is the Atoning Price of the Church. “ The Church... which He purchased with His own Blood “ (Acts 20:28)<br />
3. The Holy Spirit is the Administration of the Church, hence , He sets “ His gifts, severally as He will .( I Cro 12:28)<br />
4. The ascended Lord is the Head of the Church, His mystical body. (Eph 1:23, 5:23)<br />
5. Love is the Motive and Moving Power of the Church, hence the members are to love each other “as Christ loved the Church “ (Eph 5: 2,5,25)<br />
6. Prayer is the Life of the Church, the power that brings release, even as it did to imprisoned Peter when prayer was “made without ceasing of the Church unto God” (Act 12:5)<br />
7. Worship of the Lord is the Privilege of the Church, and Christ us ever the one who in the midst of the Church leads her in praise to God- (Heb 2:12) and the Church is responsible, as well as privileged, to “come together” to remember the Lord’s death- ( I Cro 9 : 18-26)<br />
8. Edification, or building each other up, is the Rule of the Church, hence, the keynote of all ministry in the Church ( I Cro 14: 12,19)<br />
<br />
9. Unity of action is the Responsibility of the Church, hence, there are to be no schisms in the body, but each member is to tarry for one another, and hold the Head by recognising the members in mutual helps and assemblage. (Eph 2:18-22, 5:16)<br />
<br />
10. The truth of God is the Custody of the Church, hence, the Church of God is the pillar and ground of the truth. ( I Tim 3: 15)<br />
<br />
11. God Himself is the Centre and Circumference of the Church, hence, the titles by which it is called, and the place where it is found. It is called “ the Church of God,” “the Church in God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ,” “the Church of the Firstborn” ( I Cro 1: 2) ( I Thess 1:1) ( Heb 12: 23)<br />
<br />
12. The glory of God is the End and Church, hence, it displays His manifest wisdom and is to be His manifested glory. (Eph 3: 10, 21 ;5: 27)<br />

The ABC'S of the Christian life.<br />

<br />
Although things are not perfect.<br />
<br />
Because of trial or pain.<br />
<br />
Continue in thanksgiving.<br />
<br />
Do not begin to blame.<br />
<br />
Even when the times are hard.<br />
<br />
Fierce winds are bound to blow.<br />
<br />
God is forever able.<br />
<br />
Hold on to what you know.<br />
<br />
Imagine life without His life.<br />
<br />
Joy would cease to be.<br />
<br />
Keep thanking Him for all things.<br />
<br />
Love imparts to thee.<br />

On earth can yield the power.<br />
<br />
Praise can do alone.<br />
<br />
Quit looking at the future.<br />
<br />
Redeem the time at hand.<br />
<br />
Start every day with worship.<br />
<br />
To "thank” is a command.<br />
<br />
Until we see Him coming.<br />
<br />
<br />
Victorious in the sky.<br />
<br />
<br />
We'll run the race with gratitude.<br />

Xalting (Exalting) God on high.<br />
<br />
Yes there will be good times and yes some will be bad, but<br />
<br />
Zion waits in glory .........where none are sad!!<br />

"Spiritual temperatures"<br />
<br />
In the Chrsitian life there are three spiritual temperatures.<br />
<br />
1. A Burning Heart on fire for the Lord.<br />

Luke 24:32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us,<br />
while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the<br />
scriptures?<br />

cold.<br />

3. A Lukewarm Heart.<br />
