Christ, From the Psalms

Most every Christian is familiar with the Book of Psalms, the hymn book of Ancient Israel. While they contain many devotional and experiential thoughts, we often fail to realize the doctrinal and especially Christological nature of the Psalms. In this episode of Words of Grace, we conduct a brief survey, merely scratching the surface of such Messianic Psalms.

The Holy Spirit

The Bible presents the eternal Godhead as a Trinity. That is, God is a Tri-Unity of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. To paraphrase 1 John 5:7, there are three, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, and these Three are One. In today’s broadcast, we share a recent message by Pastor Winslett, on the subject of the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity. His focus, in specific, was the Personhood of the Holy Spirit.

Final Exhortations

Concluding our study of the book of James, we come to James 5:13-20, and the Apostle’s closing remarks to his audience. As the tongue, our speech, is a common theme in his epistle, James exhorts to a godly use of the tongue: praise, confession, and prayer.

Patience

How is a Disciple to endure persecution or unfair criticism? James’ exhortation and encouragement to those in such a predicament can be summed up in a word: Patience! While many of us think of the concept of patience as having it’s setting in annoyance or inconvenience, it’s Biblical usage is often centered in the context of sufferings. James instructs us to be patient, as we await the return of our Lord Jesus, who even judge our persecutors!

Boastings!

None of us know the future. And yet, sometimes men will brag about their future exploits with such certainty as if they were already accomplished. Truly, the tongue, though small, boasts of many great things. In this episode of Words of Grace, we consider James’ exhortation against presumptuous boasting, from two perspectives; 1) We know not what a day will bring, and 2) Even in our speech, we should bow the knee to God’s sovereignty.

Happy New Year!

Grace: Our Solution

We’ve really considered some heavy hitting lessons from the book of James in recent weeks. Toes are bruised. Consciences are bruised. Amidst all the rebukes of the Apostle James we’ve read (and will read), a bright ray of hope appears in James chapter 4: Our solution, God’s grace. Our source of strength, enabling us to mortify temptations, the tongue, judgmentalism, etc., is the unlimited grace of God.

Ask Not, Have Not

The Apostle James wrote that we have not because we ask not. This means there are blessings we could have, if we’d only ask. Worse, he also remarked that many times we aren’t given what we pray for because our desires are motivated by carnal lusts! Oh, that we would know how to maturely pray. Tune in to this edition of Words of Grace from James chapter 4.
