WHAT ABOUT KEN PAXTON???

Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

Attorney General Ken Paxton has been a friend for many, many years and has been endorsed numerous times in the LINK Letter.

There is no doubt that Ken, through his staff at the AGs office, has accomplished much for Texas. This is worthy of applause.

But did the filing for divorce by Angela Paxton change the equation? Angela Paxton cited adultery as the reason, basing her decision on Biblical grounds.

WHAT IS PAUL’S POINT IN ROMANS 8?

Discussed by Mark Lanier
with Biblical Literacy (www.Biblical-Literacy.com)

Day 2

WHY DOES OUR PERSONAL MINDSET ABOUT LIFE MATTER? DOES IT REALLY EFFECT OUR ATTITUDE AND DECISIONS?

Mark Lanier continues with his Romans series this week, explaining what he believes is the entire point of the book. What is the foundation? What is the chiasm that appears in Romans 8? And what is the outcome that Paul was hoping to achieve?

To view Mark Lanier’s video for this lesson, click here.

If you have a prayer request, need Scripture encouragement, or would like a copy of Mark’s lessons each week, email wantmore@biblical-literacy.org

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

THE FOUNDATION (Romans 8:1-4)

BOTTOM LINE: God sent His son, Jesus, to die on a cross for our sins. Does that mean He excuses our sin? Did He lower His standards for us?

Do we really “have righteousness” if we are in Christ? Can we walk in righteousness without Christ?

THE CHIASM (Romans 8:5-8)

Why does Mark teach the way he does? Some say he is too complicated. Some say he is not complicated enough. Where do you stand?

How does Tom Wright identify/define “chiasm” from these verses? Listen closely! It’s really interesting – and as easy to understand as the ABC’s!

STAYING COMMITTED

Discussed by Pastor Jarrett Stephens
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)

Day 2

WHY DOES IT SEEM THAT WHENEVER CHRISTIANS ARE DOING GOD’S WORK, THE OPPOSITION WILL HIT FROM EVERY SIDE?

Pastor Jarrett Stephens continues in his sermon series entitled NEXT: From Northwest Houston to the World. The series is focusing on Nehemiah, whose burden for the people produced a bold faith to fulfill God’s promises.

This week, he will examine two threats that can short-circuit our commitment to God and how Nehemiah dealt with those threats.

Scripture Reference: Nehemiah 4-6

Find Pastor Jarrett Stephens’ sermon here.

If you have questions about a sermon, please contact Champion Forest at questions@cfbc.org

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Pastor Jarrett begins the sermon sharing about his favorite preacher, Charles Spurgeon. What kind of impact are we still feeling today from Spurgeon’s faithful service to God? Click on the link above to view the illustration from the first publication of the magazine, “The Sword and the Trowel”, at the 41-minute mark.

THREAT #1: Outside Opposition

Yesterday, Pastor Jarrett preached from the first few verses in Nehemiah 4, explaining Nehemiah’s response to being rejected, ridiculed, and even persecuted when he shared the Gospel.

How did God answer Nehemiah’s prayer?

Did God make it clear to Nehemiah about the “next steps”?

How did the Jews respond to Nehemiah’s call for help?

Can opposition, which causes discouragement, result in Christians quitting? Pastor Jarrett once again offers us encouragement through Nehemiah.


If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, text the word JESUS to 77069 and a pastor or counselor from CFBC will call you back.

Great are your mercies, O Lord. For the sake of your name, revive us.
