Joshua 4:20-22 “In the future, when your children ask their fathers, ‘What is the meaning of these stones? ’ 22you should tell your children, ‘Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.’

• What are the stones in your life that you have?

• Are they a Memorial of God’s blessing or memorial to your sadness?

• When God shows up do you have an attitude of Gratitude for the blessing or do you attitude of victimization

• Every Christian should be a Living Memorial Stone!

• That our children, our spouse, our co-workers would look at us just as the Children in our passage would ask what is the reason for the memorial stones?

• Those around us should ask similar questions about us...

• Are you LIVING MEMORIAL or are you a tombstone?

• What has God done in your life that you have praised Him for?

• God gives us visuals to be memorials of His blessing.

This video jam titled "See Him as He Is" comes from a sermon preached by Dr. Vincent G. Artese titled "See Him as He Is".This sermon jam draws a clear line between what is true Christianity as Christ taught it and what is not. We see through the writings of the Apostle John that a true Christian has the seed of Christ planted within them when they are born again and this hope grows and increases as one becomes more and more like Christ. It is a living hope that continues as one walks by faith and God empowers believers with the Holy Spirit. At the same time John speaks of those who do not receive Christ and are described by the apostle as having the wrath of God upon them. Christ came to free people from their sins, to set up His Church, and set up His kingdom. Those that do not receive Jesus Christ as Lord will not be changed and therefore have no hope for eternal life. In John's first epistle the apostle shows his readers that the plan of God is the purification of sinners and that those who sin are of the devil. When one sins they no longer display the holiness of God. Christ came to free us from sin, He came to empower people to obey the commands of God and bear fruit. All Christian must be dowers of the word, remain obedient to their heavenly father, and abide in Christ.

This video is the fifth in a multi-part series entitled "Healing Relationships through Forgiveness.” It deals with the fifth principle. Principle 5: We must forgive ourselves for our sin as God has forgiven us. When we have sinned or done something against another (spouse, child, friend, etc.), we have first sinned against God and must reconcile with Him. Though we may know we are forgiven, sometimes we can't forgive ourselves. In this section, Dr. Jones shares how we are to forgive ourselves.

An old Vineyard song, this is Lincoln Brewster's rendition. A pretty simple song lyrically, but it springs from Paul's words in Philippians 3:7-11. I quoted that passage in the middle of my video, so you'll have to watch the video to find out what it says (or you'll have to pull out your Bible, either way, it's all good). The song was written by Marc James.

(P.S. - I'm fortunate enough to live a short distance from Lincoln's home church, Bayside Granite Bay in Granite Bay, CA, so I get to hear him sing frequently)
