POWER, PROFIT, & LETTING GO

Jesus gave authority, spiritual authority, to the disciples and to every individual Christian who believes in Christ.  But Jesus also gave spiritual authority to the church, the collective body of believers.  So with all of that spiritual dominion available, why does the church often seem so power-LESS?  What can we do to change it?  How can the church take back its power?

The answers are in a follow up message on the doctrine of binding and loosing.  The sermon is called THE POWER & PROFIT OF LETTING GO.

WHEN TO HOLD ON; WHEN TO LET GO

It’s true of romance.  And it’s true in this spiritual journey called the Christian life: You have to know when to hold on, and you have to know when to let go.
The Bible speaks to this issue of holding on or letting go.  Jesus taught that holding on and letting go are expressions of spiritual authority.  Jesus called it BINDING & LOOSING. 

The sermon is called WHEN TO HOLD ON & WHEN TO LET GO.
