Pineapple-barbecued Lamb Spare Ribs

What the Bible Says About Joy: 1. Jesus’ aim in all He taught was the joy of His people (Jn. 15:11). 2. Joy is what God fills us with when we trust in Christ (Rom. 15:13). 3. The kingdom of God is joy (Rom. 14:17). 4. Joy is the fruit of God’s Spirit within us (Gal. 5:22). 5. Joy is the aim of everything the apostles did and wrote (2 Cor. 1:24). 6. Becoming a Christian is finding a joy that makes you willing to forsake everything (Mat. 13:44). 7. Joy is nourished and sustained by the word of God in the Bible (Psm. 19:8). 8. Joy will overtake all sorrow for those who trust Christ (Psm. 126:5; 30:5) 9. God Himself is our joy (Psm. 43:4; 16:11). 10. Joy in God outstrips all earthly joy (Psm. 4:7) 11. If your joy is in God, no one can take your joy from you (Jn. 16:22). 12. God calls all nations and peoples to join in the joy He offers to all who believe. No racism. No ethnocentrism (Psm. 67:4; Psm. 66:1). 13. The whole Christian message from beginning to end is good news of great joy (Lk. 2:10; Isa. 51:11). 14. When we meet Christ at His second coming we will enter into his indestructible joy (Mt. 25:23).

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.
