4 Chairs

Sunday Night Service - November 14, 2010

Pastor Kip showed an awesome video by Andrian Dupres on the "4 Chairs". Andrian stood on stage with 4 folding-chairs. Each chair represented who we are as a Christian or non-Christian. Which one of the chairs represent you?

1. Chair #1: Christian that Loves God!
2. Chair #2: Christian, but has gotten use to God.
3. Chair #3: Think you are a Christian, but never accepted Christ.
4. Chair #4: Not a Christian.

Evidence if You Know You are a Christian:

• You know you are a Christian by your fruit.
• Conviction of Sin.

God is a loving, forgiving and merciful God! Ask God to forgive you of your sins and turn to Him. There is enough room in the 1st chair for everybody!

The Power of the Tongue (Part 2)

Silver Run Baptist Church - Pastor Kip McKee – November 7, 2010 Evening Service

Proverbs 18:20-21 & James 3:1-12

The Bible tells us that we literally eat the words we say. What we say impacts us & everyone we encounter. (Proverbs 18:20-21)

I. Words can discourage us.

 Words can harm us if we let them. (Titus 1:7-11)

II. Words can divide us.

 One thing God hates is those who sow discord among brothers. (Proverbs 6:12-19)

III. Words can Encourage us!

 David encouraged himself. (1 Samuel 30:1-6)

IV. Words can SAVE OTHERS!

 Our Words should show others the GRACE of God! (Romans 10:8-15)

V. Words can Encourage OTHERS!

 Our Words should show others the GRACE of God! (Colossians 4:2-6)

 Our Words should lovingly help those in sin see the error of their way. As Nathan helped David see his sin, we can help others see what is hurting them. (2 Samuel 12:1-15)

 Our Words should speak Blessings for our Family, our Church & for God’s Kingdom.

VI. Words can PLEASE God!

 All of our words are to PLEASE GOD, at all times! (Psalm 19:7-14)

 We speak with God’s Authority when we quote His Word! (Hebrews 4:12-13)

May our Words Please God & Build Up His People!

The Power of the Tongue (Part 1)

Silver Run Baptist Church - Pastor Kip McKee – November 7, 2010 Morning Service

Proverbs 18:20-21 & James 3:1-12

I. The Words we use MATTER! Our words bring us Blessings or Hardships.

 Our words give POWER to GOOD things or POWER to evil. The choice is ours.

 Our souls literally EAT the words we say. (Proverbs 18:20-21)

 Our Praises bring Blessings to us!

 Our negative words poison us & others.

 Negative words are useful tools for Satan.

II. Criticism should come SLOWLY because NO ONE is perfect!

 Only God and His Word can accurately judge us.

 Our Christian command is to help each other grow CLOSER to Jesus by encouraging one another. (James 3:1-2)

 Jesus said, “He who is without sin throw the first stone.” (John 8:2-11)

III. Criticism should come SLOWLY because we do not always see God’s Plan in the life of others!

 God works in mysterious ways. No man can figure out all God is doing with us. (Isaiah 55:6-11 & John 9:1-7)


Let’s Speak Blessings into our life & the Life of Others!

Let’s ENCOURAGE & BUILD Each Other UP!

Making God, MY GOD!

Sunday Morning Service - October 3, 2010

Pastor Kip was preaching on what we need to do to make God our God from 1 Peter 1:13-16.

Sermon Series:

Words to Live by from an Old Fisherman!

2 Keys of The Christian Life:

1. 
   
   Live INTENTIONALLY. Make your life count for God. (Don't just go with the world's flow.)
2. 
   
   Strive to BE LIKE JESUS and you will PLEASE Jesus!

I. We need to be READY for Godly Action!

• 
  
  Prepare Your Minds for ACTION! (1 Peter 1:13a)
• 
  
   The mind wonders unless we control it.

II. We need to CONTROL ourselves!

• "Be Self-controlled" literally means to be sober. The Greek word here means "wine-less." (1 Peter 1:13b)
• Don't let anything or anyone intoxicate you!

III. We need to STAY FOCUSED on Jesus!

• Keep Your Eyes and Heart on Jesus!
• Be disciplined in your faith! Remember we are all accountable to GOD!

IV. We need a NEW LIFESTYLE!

• Be CONFORMED to the Christian Life!
• Our words and deeds should point others to Jesus!

V. We need a NEW standard of CONDUCT!

• God says, "Be Holy, for I AM Holy!" This is not a suggestion...it is a command.
• We should RESEMBLE our Heavenly Father so much people see Jesus in us!

Conclusion: STRIVE to be HOLY in all you do! Simply put, be like JESUS!

The Advantages of Hard Times

Sunday Morning Service - September 12, 2010
Scripture: 1 Peter 1:6-7
Sermon Series: Words to Live by from an Old Fisherman!
Sermon by: Pastor Kip McKee

1. Our Trials are BRIEF! (In comparison with Eternity...1 Peter 1:6)
2. Our Trials are NECESSARY! (Hard Times come to EVERY Believer. How we view them is life changing! ...Philippians 3:10-11) (Hard Times teach us MORE about God's LOVE and CARE for us! ...Matthew 28:20) (Hard Times STRENGTHEN our Faith & increase our Service to God! We grow in our desire to serve God & in our ability to serve Him.)
3. Our Trials are PURIFYING! (Our Trials have a PURPOSE! ...1 Peter 1:7) (Our trials prove that God will NEVER FAIL US!)
4. Our Trials IMPACT Eternity! (Our Trials can bring God PRAISE, HONOR & GLORY! ...1 Peter 1:7) (Our Privilege as Christians is to GLORIFY God in all we do. How we respond to trials can GLORIFY God in a major way.)

3 Questions to Ask in Trials:

1. Is what I am doing with my life PLEASING GOD? If not, what needs to change?
2. Am I pointing others to GOD or pushing them away from God?
3. Are my Actions and Words HONORING GOD, His Word & Pleasing to Jesus?

2 Things to Remember in Trials!

1. Trials are common to all Believers.
2. Trials should bring us CLOSER to God, not push us away from GOD.

Romans 8:28...And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those that love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
