We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Sexual relations within marriage are holy and good (Hebrews 13:4). 1. Pleasure in sexual relations (like pleasure in eating or in the performance of other bodily functions) is not forbidden but rather assumed (Proverbs 5:18-19 and Song of Solomon). 2. Sexual pleasure is to be regulated by the key principle that one’s sexuality does not exist for himself or for his own pleasure, but for his partner. 3. Sexual relations are to be regular and continuous. 4. The principle of mutual satisfaction means that each party is to provide the sexual enjoyment which is “due” his or her spouse whenever needed. 5. There is to be no sexual bargaining. 6. Sexual relationships are equal and reciprocal (Harry McGee).

The first mark of a healthy church is expositional preaching. It is not only the first mark; it is far and away the most important of them all, because if you get this one right, all of the others should follow… If you get the priority of the Word established, then you have in place the single most important aspect of the church’s life, and growing health is virtually assured, because God has decided to act by His Spirit through His Word… The congregation’s commitment to the centrality of the Word coming from the front, from the preacher, the one specially gifted by God and called to that ministry, is the most important thing you can look for in a church.

    10:1 εγραψεν δε ο βασιλευς τελη επι την βασιλειαν της τε γης και της θαλασσης

    10:2 και την ισχυν αυτου και ανδραγαθιαν πλουτον τε και δοξαν της βασιλειας αυτου ιδου γεγραπται εν βιβλιω βασιλεων περσων και μηδων εις μνημοσυνον

    10:3 ο δε μαρδοχαιος διεδεχετο τον βασιλεα αρταξερξην και μεγας ην εν τη βασιλεια και δεδοξασμενος υπο των ιουδαιων και φιλουμενος διηγειτο την αγωγην παντι τω εθνει αυτου .
