Running To Win

Lie #2: Jesus Is One Among Many #1 of 2

May 31, 2011
When blindly following their leader, lemmings walk right off a cliff. Many people today are heading for an eternal cliff. These people place their faith in the teachings of modern prophets and gurus: often figures in the media. They are promised health, wealth, and friendly angels to help them. Little is said about sin and righteousness. Today: exposing the lie that Jesus is one of many ways to God.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

The sad story of Judas reminds us that “Satan walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour…” Some say Christians cannot be demon-possessed. But others say they still can be demonically influenced. In any case, a non-believer is fair game for Satan to use, as he did Judas. Today: what really happened during the Last Supper so long ago.

A few years ago an ancient “Gospel of Judas” document surfaced. Its purpose: to tell us about the “Real Jesus.” In this document, Judas is a hero, and Jesus is a fanciful being taking on many forms as the need arises. Written by Gnostics, the gospel of Judas’s reappearance is just another attempt to debunk the Christian faith.

The race of life is hard when our labors are not fueled by the love of God. That’s why Jesus gave His great commandment. Loving God with all our hearts, and our neighbors as ourselves, fulfils the law and pleases our Creator. Obeying this commandment means obeying all ten of the ones God wrote on tablets of stone to give to Moses so long ago.
May 26, 2011
The Decalogue: literally, “ten words.” Written by God on tablets of stone, the Ten Commandments defined proper behavior. Those who win in the race of life not only follow these ten laws, but on a higher plane, they follow an eleventh. Today: we start the final lesson in our study of the Ten Commandments by learning how Jesus summed them all up.

It lies hidden, a smoldering flame beneath the surface. The sin nobody sees can light fires of lasting conflict. Winners in life’s race disavow covetousness. They know that longing for what others have is a recipe for ongoing discontent. God’s tenth and final commandment makes it clear that we are not to covet.
May 24, 2011
There’s something in all of us that wants what someone else has. We never seem to have enough, and some of us want it all. Winners in life’s race don’t carry their belongings across the finish line. No U-Haul will follow your hearse. Coveting: that’s what God addressed in the last of the Ten Commandments, and coveting is our focus on today’s broadcast.

Among seven things God hates, the writer of Proverbs lists lying - twice. That’s top billing for a sin we all commit. To win in the race of life requires honesty...telling the truth. As we explore another of the Ten Commandments, we’ll see why this sin is so prevalent, and so destructive. Imagine you’re in court. Will you swear to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth?
May 20, 2011
For some reason, we humans make a distinction between big lies and small lies. To us, telling a “white lie” is OK. But it’s not OK with God. Believers running the race of life need to tell the truth if they want to win. Lying violates prime directive number nine in the Bible, and losing that lying tongue is where we’re headed on today’s broadcast.

Few of us commit adultery, fewer still would kill, but most of us would be found guilty if confronted about stealing. Those who want to be victorious runners in life’s race need to lose the baggage of guilt they carry from thefts, both large and small. That’s how far we have come in our study of the eighth commandment. Pastor Lutzer will give some closing thoughts on stealing.
May 18, 2011
Most people say “What’s mine is mine, what’s yours is yours.” But then there are those who say “what’s yours is mine.” It’s more than bank robberies and burglary. People steal from their employers with hardly a second thought. We seem to forget that stealing any private property violates one of the Ten Commandments.
